5
Start-Up Money
  • New businesses have no track record to prove it
    will survive. For this reason, its hard to get
    investors.
  • The main resources for start-up money is usually
    personal resources.
  • Friends, Family, Others
  • Savings, Credit Cards, Loans, Investments
  • To finance a new business, entrepreneurs can use
    banks, financial companies, investment companies,
    and government grants. There are 2 broad types
    of financing for new ventures
  • Equity Financing
  • Debt Financing

6
Sources of Equity Financing
  • Equity Capital Cash raised for a business in
    exchange for ownership stake in that business
  • Ex Investor might invest 50k for a 25
    ownership stake
  • Equity funding, AKA Risk Capital
  • Because of the financial risk involved
  • Successful Business Investor makes a return on
    investment
  • Business Fails Investor loses money

7
Types of Equity Funding
  • Personal Savings
  • 1 Source of . 67 of businesses are started
    this way, without borrowing money
  • Friends/Family
  • What happens to your relationship with these
    people if the business fails?
  • Private Investors
  • Angel Private investor who funds start-up
    companies. Nonprofessional financing source.
  • Partners
  • Remember the partnership agreement we talked
    about in Ch. 7
  • Share responsibilities and costs
  • Venture Capitalists
  • Individual investors or investment firms that
    invest capital professionally. Provide
    managerial as well as technical expertise.
  • State Sponsored Venture Capital Funds
  • Local economic development corporations help fund
    new businesses to create jobs.

8
Sources of Debt Financing
  • Money is raised by taking out loans. Not only do
    you borrow money, but you pay it back with
    interest.
  • The entrepreneur retains ownership of the
    business, however must record the liability on
    the business accounting books.
  • Make sure you are certain the business can
    generate enough cash flow to repay the loan.
  • Compare and contrast long-term vs. short term
    financing.
  • Do you want a loan out for 30 years, or for 3,5
    or 10 years?

9
Types of Debt Funding
  • Banks
  • Usually only lend to well-established businesses
  • Trade Credit
  • Credit that one business will grant to another
    for the purchase of goods or services.
  • Minority Enterprise Development Programs
  • Funded by the private sector SBA. Owners must
    be at least 51 ethnic minority, female, or
    disabled. Also helps secure government contracts
    find strategic partners
  • Commercial Finance Companies
  • More expensive alternate to commercial banks.
    Less conservative than banks, and more willing to
    take risks. Form of security or collateral is
    required, such as your home.
  • SBA Loan
  • Small Business Administration. Uses a commercial
    bank, but guarantees repayment to the lender up
    to 90 should your business fail. You and anyone
    with more than 20 ownership in the business must
    guarantee the loan with personal assets. (Home,
    Cars, etc)
  • SBICs
  • Small Business Investment Companies. Privately
    managed venture capital companies. Licensed by
    the SBA to provide equity and debt financing to
    young, established businesses.

Obtaining Financial and Growth Capital
11
How To Get Financed!
  • Once youve figured out which method your company
    will use (Equity vs. Debt), you must create pro
    forma financial statements
  • Pro Forma Proposed or Estimated financial
    statements based on predictions of how the
    operations of the business will turn out.
  • Income Statements, Balance Sheets, Cash Flow,
    etc.
  • This will give potential investors and other
    sources of funds a sense of confidence that you
    know what your doing!

12
What Venture Capitalists Expect
  • Venture Capitalists rarely invest in start up
    companies, but when they do, they look for
    high-growth firms with BIG potential.
  • Venture Capitalists typically want a 30-70 ROI
    for a growing company, and a 50 or more for an
    early stage venture because of the risk involved.
  • Ex If they give you 2 million for 5 years.
    They will want their original investment within
    those 5 years, as well as an additional
    600,000-1 Million on top of that.
  • Your business must generate enough money to pay
    them off.

13
What Private Investors Expect
  • Remember from 19.1, called Angels.
  • Unlike Venture Capitalists, they enjoy being
    involved in the business.
  • Typically invest in the business because they are
    familiar or understand that industry.
  • Most private investors put between 10-500k into
    a new business.
  • On average, they aim to get 10xs their
    investment at the end of five years.
  • A strong management team will attract private
    investors

14
What Bankers Expect
  • Banks must invest conservatively and follow
    strict rules about how to invest the banks
    money.
  • Very different from that of a venture capitalist
  • Because of that, they are MUCH MORE interested in
    how you plan, and your ability to repay that loan
  • Cash Flow is a big concern to them
  • Youve got to be able to cover the business
    monthly expenses AND the loan payment
  • Bankers rely on the 5 Cs to determine your loan
    application
  • Character-Reputation for business practices
  • Capacity-Ability to pay a loan (Cash Flow)
  • Capital-Net worth of a business
  • Collateral-Security for the loan should you not
    be able to repay
  • Conditions-Growth, Competition, Economy, etc.

15
Growth Financing
  • This is financing for an already established
    business looking to grow! Not start up funding!
  • VC (Venture Capital) Companies
  • Expect returns of 30-70
  • May require significant ownership, or a seat on
    the board of directors
  • Requires Due Dilligence-Investigation analysis
    by an investor
  • Private Placements
  • Raises capital by selling ownership
  • Private offering or sale of securities
    (ownership)
  • Investors must meet certain standards, must be
    sophisticated
  • Investors must have a net worth of at least a
    million dollars
  • IPOs (Initial Public Offerings)
  • Sale of stock in a company on a public exchange
  • 5 steps to becoming a public company with stock
    on pg. 418. List them.

16
Calculating Start-Up Needs
  • Start-Up Costs
  • Those that you incur prior to the business
    opening its doors
  • Fig. 19.1 on pg. 420, good example of costs
  • Equipment, furniture, fixtures, etc.
  • Operating Costs
  • AKA working capital
  • Amount of cash needed to carry out daily
    operations
  • Covers the time between selling your
    product/service and receiving payment from the
    customer
  • Contingency Fund
  • Extra amount of money used only when absolutely
    necessary
  • Emergency Fund
  • Some businesses keep enough money in here to
