Why are secondary valuations not rising?
Edoardo Zarghetta Edoardo Zarghetta

Why are secondary valuations not rising?

Valuing a private company involves assessing its total worth (numerator) and the number of shares (denominator). If the company's value increases but shares also rise, the per-share value may not grow, akin to a fraction's dynamics. Reasons for rising shares include capital raising, employee compensation, acquisitions, debt conversion, and investor inclusion. To elevate a private stock's price, focus on revenue growth, profitability, strategic partnerships, market expansion, product innovation, and operational efficiency. Investing in venture stocks within bubbles or momentum carries risks and opportunities, demanding careful analysis, market timing, diversification, and risk management strategies.

Q3 Selected stock prices according to “Valuation at Market©”

The rules for “Valuation at Market©” are based on the PRE IPO CLUB LLC proprietary methodology: price inputs are derived from the 10 most active secondary brokers during the quarter, as well as publicly available information, such as federal filings (e.g., Form D), state filings (e.g., amendments to Certificates of Incorporation, Limited Offering Exemption Notices, Employee Plan Exemption Notices), and company disclosures (e.g., press releases, other public statements). The calculation model is based on actual or derived prices of preferred stock and common stock, which are validated by the fund manager. Corporate actions, such as bankruptcies, stock splits, reorganizations, mergers and acquisitions, and spinoffs, are monitored on a daily basis. Index values are calculated for each calendar month but distributed on a quarterly basis, before the last day of each January, April, July, and October.
