This article explains how to add a new financing round, record related securities, and use other event types available on the Investment Details page.
Go to the Investment Details Page
To manage a company’s investment information, first open that company’s Investment Details page.
From there, you can add financing rounds and other events that affect ownership, valuation, or exit outcomes.
Add a New Financing Round
To record a new round of financing:
Click Add Event.
Select Add Financing.
Enter the round details, including:
Round Name
Close Date
Fully Diluted Share Count
Round Size
Pre-Money Valuation
Track Liquidation Preferences
If you would like to track liquidation preferences for the round:
Toggle from Financing to Preferences.
Turn on Track liquidation preferences for this round.
Enter the applicable terms, including:
Preference Multiple
Participation Type
Seniority Position
Tracking liquidation preferences helps ensure the round reflects the economic rights associated with that series and can be used in downstream analyses and scenario modeling.
Add Securities to the Round
After creating the financing round, you can add the relevant securities for your investment.
Choose the appropriate option to record the investment type:
Add Share Class for equity holdings
Add Warrant for warrant holdings
Add Convertibles for convertible instruments
Add Certificates for Equity Investments
If you add a share class for an equity investment, click Add Certificate to record the specific investment details associated with that holding.
Record Additional Rounds
Repeat this process for each financing round your firm participates in.
We also recommend recording subsequent financing rounds even if your firm did not participate. Doing so helps keep your Market Cap, Fair Value, and Ownership calculations accurate as the company raises additional capital over time.
Record Other Event Types
The Add Event button can also be used to record other changes, including:
Dilution
Cryptocurrency holdings
Acquisition
Public Exit
These event types help maintain a complete and current view of the company’s investment history.
Customize the Overview Pane
Each company’s Investment Details page includes an Overview pane. You can configure this pane to highlight the information most important to your team, making it easier to monitor key investment details at a glance.
