Calculation method

Illustrative post-money value = pre-money value + new investment. New investor percentage = new investment / post-money value. The entered current-holder percentage is then multiplied by the percentage retained by existing holders.

Worked example

At a USD 4,000,000 pre-money value with USD 1,000,000 of new investment, the simple post-money value is USD 5,000,000 and the new investor percentage is 20%. A holder entered at 60% becomes 48% before any other cap-table changes.

What the result excludes

The model excludes option-pool increases, convertibles, SAFEs, warrants, multiple closings, share classes, preferences, anti-dilution, transaction costs, tax, currency conversion, rounding, and legal-record reconciliation. It is not a complete cap table or financing recommendation.
