How This Works
Post-Money
Pre-money + amount raised. New investor ownership = raise / post-money.Option Pool Shuffle
VCs require the ESOP pool be set before the round closes, diluting founders. ESOP shortfall is applied pre-round.Pro-Rata Rights
Existing investors typically have the right to invest their pro-rata share to maintain ownership. Estimated as existing % × post-money.
