Understanding Valuations
Pre-money valuation is the company's value before receiving investment. Post-money valuation is the value after investment (pre-money + investment amount).
The Formula
Post-Money = Investment ÷ Investor Ownership %Pre-Money = Post-Money - InvestmentExample
If an investor puts in $2M for 20% ownership:
- • Post-Money = $2M ÷ 0.20 = $10M
- • Pre-Money = $10M - $2M = $8M
