DECISION IS THE OUTCOME

A disciplined “no” can be as
important as a confident “yes.”

The purpose of the investment process is not to push every matched opportunity toward funding. It is to create enough understanding to make a clearer decision.

Investment Decision
Outcome:PORTFOLIO COMPANY

THE GOAL OF A PIPELINE IS NOT TO MAXIMIZE THE NUMBER OF CLOSED DEALS.
IT IS TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF DECISIONS.

INSTITUTIONAL MEMORY

Closed without investment still retains critical organizational intelligence.

Decision History

Complete timeline of stages, interactions, and milestones reached prior to closing.

Relevant Notes

Institutional rationale, diligence findings, and key takeaways for future reference.

Relationship Context

Preserved founder connection for potential future rounds or strategic alignment.

FROM PROSPECT TO OWNERSHIP

Closing the investment
changes the questions.

Before investment, the Investor asks whether to participate. After investment, the Investor needs to understand ownership, company progress and what changes over time.

THE INVESTMENT DATE SHOULD NOT RESET THE COMPANY CONTEXT.

An institutional record maintains the narrative thread. What was learned during diligence forms the baseline for evaluating future performance.

Invested Capital
Resulting Ownership
Closing ends the transaction process. It starts the ownership relationship.
UNDERSTAND THE STAKE

Ownership is not just
one percentage forever.

A portfolio view should connect the original investment with the ownership context that results and how later company events may change that context.

PORTFOLIO CASE STUDY

NOVA SPACE SAS

ILLUSTRATIVE SCENARIO ONLY
ENTRY

Before Investment

Initial state prior to capital injection.

Investor ownership:0%
OWNERSHIP

Seed Investment

Horizon Capital invests €500K.

Illustrative ownership:8.0%
COMPANY EVENT

Later Financing

New capital enters the company, altering the cap table structure.

UPDATED CONTEXT

Updated Context

Resulting ownership post-financing event.

Diluted ownership:6.9%
Ownership should be understood as of a point in time.
DISTINCTION 01

Investment Amount ≠ Current Ownership Value

Historical invested capital does not equal live fair market valuation.

DISTINCTION 02

Original Ownership ≠ Permanent Ownership

Initial percentage stake evolves with subsequent equity events and share issuances.

Factors that change ownership context
New Financing
Option Pool Changes
Security Conversion
Secondary Transactions
Other Equity Events
AFTER THE INVESTMENT

The company keeps changing.
The Investor context should too.

Portfolio relationships become more useful when company updates reconnect current progress with the original investment case.

PORTFOLIO PERFORMANCE CONTEXT

The important metric depends on
the company.

Portfolio monitoring should connect company metrics to the business model, stage and investment thesis rather than forcing every company into one universal scorecard.

THE NEXT CAPITAL DECISION

Investing once does not
answer what to do next.

When a portfolio company raises again, the Investor can compare current company evidence with the original thesis and investment context before considering another decision.
