Business Valuation: An Introduction to Pre/Post Money Valuation
Pre-money and post-money are frequently used terms to describe the valuation of a company when raising capital. In this post, we provide an introduction to the concepts as well as explore the impact multiple rounds of funding have on the entrepreneur’s ownership stake. The pre-money valuation of a company is simply the value of the company before an equity investment is made. The post-money valuation is the pre-money valuation plus the equity investment. For example, suppose you and a partner start a company. You initially issue 1,000,000 shares of stock and divide them equally between you and your partner.
In this post, we explore 10 crucial factors OTHER than the purchase price and purchase multiple that entrepreneurs should consider when preparing to sell their business. While there is something elegant about the simplicity of a purchase price multiple (i.e. “I sold my company for 8x LTM EBITDA.”), the problem is that purchase price multiples are never created equal.

Yet it can be used by anyone who has the experience, credibility and business to secure the confidence and credit from the required financing sources needed to execute an LBO. The Leveraged Buyout gained prominence in the 1980’s thanks to Jerome Kohlberg and his associate, Henry Kravis. These two and the latter’s lawyer cousin, George Roberts, would form a triumvirate in private equity with the birth of their firm KKR and be immortalized in the book Barbarians at the Gate .

If you haven’t noticed middle market private equity dealmakers trolling for deal flow these days, just join the cocktail hour of an industry networking event.
