Pre-money valuation

Previous Class
We have learned
• How to estimate the value of a startup using
1) Discounted Cash Flow Method
2) Multiple Method
Example 1
• A startup requires 1 million dollars from VC
• Expected to earn 0.5 million dollars in 5years
• Comparable to companies with PE ratio of 20
• the VC’s required rate of return is 50%
• Shares outstanding is 1 million
Practice Question
Example 1
• A startup requires 1 million dollars from VC
• Expected to earn 0.5 million dollars in 5years
• Comparable to companies with PE ratio of 20
• the VC’s required rate of return is 50%
• Shares outstanding is 1 million
• How much ownership should the startup give
to the VC to persuade the VC to investment
in the startup?
Practice Question
Example 1
(1) New money from VC : 1,000,000 dollars
(2) Net income in 5 years : 500,000 dollars
(3) Comparable companies PER : 20 times
Investment horizon : 5 years
Shares outstanding (ShOut) : 1,000,000 shares
VC required rate of return : 50%
Practice Question
Example 1
To find the VC’s required ownership amount,
→ Need to find the startup’s future value & the
VC’s future value
Practice Question
Example 1
• The value of the startup in 5 years
= Comparable companies’ PE ratio X Expected
Earnings
= 20 X 0.5 million dollars
= 10 million dollars
Practice Question
Example 1
• VC’s Ownership
= 7,593,750 / 10,000,000
= 75.94%
Practice Question
Example 1
(1) New money from VC : 1,000,000 dollars
→ FV : 7,593,750 dollars
(2) Net income in 5 years : 500,000 dollars
(3) Comparable companies PER : 20 times
→ Value of company in 5 years
= (2) X (3)
= 10,000,000 dollars
→ VC’s Ownership: 75.94%
Practice Question
Example 1
• How many shares should the startup give to
the VC?

𝑽𝑪′ 𝒔 𝑶𝒘𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑 =
(𝑶𝒍𝒅 𝒔𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒔 + 𝑵𝒆𝒘 𝒔𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒔)
Practice Question
Example 1
𝑿
𝑽𝑪′ 𝒔 𝑶𝒘𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑 =
(𝑺𝒉𝑶𝒖𝒕 + 𝑿)
• X = new shares
• ShOut = old shares
Practice Question
Example 1
𝑽𝑪′ 𝒔 𝑶𝒘𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑
𝑿= ′
× 𝑺𝒉𝑶𝒖𝒕
𝟏 − 𝑽𝑪 𝒔 𝑶𝒘𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑
Practice Question
Example 1
𝑽𝑪′ 𝒔 𝑶𝒘𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑
𝑿= ′
× 𝑺𝒉𝑶𝒖𝒕
𝟏 − 𝑽𝑪 𝒔 𝑶𝒘𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑
𝟕𝟓. 𝟗𝟒% × 𝟏, 𝟎𝟎𝟎, 𝟎𝟎𝟎
=

Multiple Approach
Post-money valuation
Hyun-Han Shin
Post-money valuation
Example 1
• Q) What price per share should VC agree to
pay?
• A) P = VC investment / VC's shares
= 0.32 dollars
Post-money valuation
Example 1
• Q) What is the pre-money valuation of the
firm?
• A) PreV = ShOut X P
= 316,872 dollars
Post-money valuation
Example 1
• Q) What is the founder's carried interest?
• A) Carried interest
= (New price) X (Shares owned)
= 316,782 dollars
Post-money valuation
• Post-money valuation
= 𝒏𝒆𝒘 𝒊𝒏𝒗𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕
𝒕𝒐𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒊𝒏𝒗𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒔𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒔 𝒐𝒖𝒕𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈
×
𝒔𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒔 𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒖𝒆𝒅 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒏𝒆𝒘 𝒊𝒏𝒗𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕
• Pre-money valuation
= 𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒕– 𝒎𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒚 𝒗𝒂𝒍𝒖𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 − 𝒏𝒆𝒘 𝒊𝒏𝒗𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕
Practice Question
Example 2
• Shareholders of Yonsei. Inc. own 100 shares
which is 100% of equity
• A investor makes a $10 million investment
into Yonsei. Inc. in return for 40 newly issued
shares
• The implied post- and pre- money valuation ?
Practice Question
Example 2
• The implied post-money valuation
= $10 million * (140 / 40)
= $35 million
100 existing shares + 40 new shares
Practice Question
Example 2
• The implied pre-money valuation
= post-money valuation – the amount of the
investment
= $35 million - $10 million
= $25 million
Practice Question
Example 2
• The initial shareholders will dilute their
ownership to 100/140 = 71.43%.
Multiple Approach
Rounds of financing (1)
Hyun-Han Shin
Previous Class
Last class…
• we assumed that one round of financing was
sufficient until year five
• In reality, there are several rounds of
financings
Today Class
In this class…
• Learn what percent ownership should each
investor purchase at the time of the
financing
Practice Question
Example 1
• A startup requires 1 million dollars
• It is raised in three rounds
• The 1st round VC provides 0.5 million dollars
now and the discount rate is 50%
• Investment period of the 1st round VC is 5yrs
• The 2nd round VC provides 0.25 million
dollars in year 2 and the discount rate is 40%
• Investment period of the 2nd round VC is 3yrs
Practice Question
Example 1
• The 3rd round VC provides 0.25 million
dollars in year 4 and the discount rate is 30%
• Investment period of the 3rd round VC is 1yr
• The startup is expected to earn 0.5 million
dollars in year 5
• Comparable to companies with PE ratio of 20
Example 1 (continued)
• The Round 1 VC’s retention ratio
= 1 - 6.86% - 3.25% = 89.89%
Example 1 (continued)
• The Round 1 VC’s current % ownership
= 37.97% / (1 - 6.86% - 3.25%)
= 37.97% / 89.89% = 42.24%
Practice Question
Example 1 (continued)
• The Round 1 VC’s current % ownership
= 37.97% / (1 - 6.86% - 3.25%)
= 37.97% / 89.89% = 42.24%
• The Round 2 VC’s current % ownership
= 6.86% / (1 - 3.25%)
= 6.86% / 96.75% = 7.09%
Practice Question
Example 1 (continued)
• The Round 1 VC’s current % ownership
= 37.97% / (1 - 6.86% - 3.25%)
= 37.97% / 89.89% = 42.24%
• The Round 2 VC’s current % ownership
= 6.86% / (1 - 3.25%)
= 6.86% / 96.75% = 7.09%
• The Round 3 VC’s current % ownership
= 3.25% / (1 - 0)
= 3.25% / 100% = 3.25%
Multiple Approach
Rounds of Financing (2)
Hyun-Han Shin
In this Class
We can find
• how many new shares each VC should
purchase at each round
Review
VC's Ownership
• = new shares / (old shares + new shares)
• = X / (ShOut+X)
• where X is new shares, ShOut is old shares
Review
VC's Ownership
• = new shares / (old shares + new shares)
• = X / (ShOut+X)
• where X is new shares, ShOut is old shares
New shares
• = % ownership / (1 - % ownership)
• = VC's Ownership * ShOut
(1 - VC's Ownership)
Practice Question
Example 1
• The Round 1 VC should purchase
= 42.24% X 1,000,000 / (1 - 42.24%)
= 731,276 shares
Practice Question
Example 1
• Shares outstanding before Round 2
= 1,000,000 + 731,276
= 1,731,276 shares
Example 1
• Shares outstanding before Round 3
= 1,731,276 + 132,123
= 1,863,399 shares
Example 1
• Shares outstanding after Round 3
= 1,863,399 + 62,595
= 1,925,994 shares
Practice Question
Example 1
• What price per share should VC agree to pay?
Example 1
• What price per share should VC agree to pay?
Example 1
• Share price the Round 3 VC pays
= 250,000 / 62,595
= 3.99 dollars
• Terminal share price
= 10,000,000 / 1,925,994
= 5.19 dollars
Multiple Approach
Cash Flow
Hyun-Han Shin
Cash Flow
• Example 1
• EBIT = $1,000
• Depreciation = $100
• Taxes = $200
• OCF = $1,000 + $100 - $200 = $900
Operating Cash Flow (OCF)
• Possibility of confusion
• In finance, OCF = EBIT + Dep - Taxes
• In accounting definition, OCF = Net income + Dep
Capital Spending
Example 2
• Ending net fixed asset : $1,000
• Beginning net fixed asset : $900
• Depreciation $100
• Previous Slide
• NWC = Current asset – Current liabilities
Change in Net Working Capital
• Previous Slide
• NWC = Current asset – Current liabilities
• Walmart Example
• Fill the new store with new inventory
• Part of inventory financed by suppliers’ credit
• Not all of inventory can be sold within the credit
period
Part of inventory should be financed by Walmart
This is an increase in NWC
Change in Net Working Capital
• Previous Slide
• NWC = Current asset – Current liabilities
• Previous Slide
• NWC = Current asset – Current liabilities
• Example 3
• Change in Net Working Capital (NWC)
= Ending NWC – Beginning NWC
= $500 - $400
= $100

Value Estimation
Yonsei Corporation
• $620,000 : Estimated value for year 2018
• Discount rate : 50% per year
• What is the value in 2015?
Yonsei Corporation
• Comparable company’s PSR is 3
• The value of Yonsei Corp
= Sales x PSR
= $270,000 x 3
= $810,000
If this is a value in 3 years
PV(50%, 3, 0, -810000)
= $240,000

• ROE = (NI / TA) (TA / TE) = ROA * EM
Deriving the Du Pont Identity
• ROE = NI / TE
• Multiply by (TA/TA) and then rearrange
• ROE = (NI / TE) (TA / TA)
