Question 3: Pancake stack in action (p.183 and 184)
Hint: When computing payouts fromparticipating preferred stock, you use the exit value AND the amount remaining after the payout to the other investors. For example, if series A investor purchases a 30% participating preferred for $10M, series B investor purchases a 40% participating preferred for $20M and the company exits for $50M, the payout is as follows:
$20M back to series B investor
,$10M back to series A investor
Remainder ( $50M-$20M-$10M=$20M) is split 40%(B),30%(A),30%(founders)
Total Exit:
Series B $20M+$20M**40%=$28M
Series A$10M+$20M**30%=$16M
Founders $50M-$28M-$16M=$6M(note how this is also the same as 30% of the $20M that "remained"]after the payout of preferred shared)
Inky has two equal owners. In Series A funding, they sell 20% of the company to investor A for $5M and give them participating preferred shares. In Series B, they sell another 20% of their company to Investor B for $15M, this time providing participating preferred shares. In Series C, they sell 15% of their company for $20M to Investor C who purchases participating preferred shares. One year later, prior to Series D they are acquired by Amazon for $200 M. How much will EACH entrepreneur and investor make from the exit? Assume no dilution across rounds. (I'm looking for the five-dollar amounts, one for Investor A, Investor B, Investor C and EACH of the entrepreneurs)
Investor C gets:
Investor B gets:
Investor A gets:
Entrepreneur 1 gets:
Entrepreneur 2 gets:
