Prognozowany średnioroczny wzrost (CAGR) europejskiego rynku aftermarket do 2035 roku.
BCG2024Europe
A discount on the share price in a future funding round granted to early investors — typically between 10% and 25%.
Why it matters
Compensates for the risk taken when the company had nothing to show yet.
What's missing without it
Without a discount, early money becomes less attractive than later money at the same risk level.
When it is used
In SAFE agreements, convertible loans, and bridge rounds.
How we use it
20% discount: if the share price is $1, the early investor pays 80 cents.
Fun fact
Discount and valuation cap usually appear together, and the one that gives the investor the better outcome is applied. It’s worth checking before signing.
