Demand Distribution Pre-Money Valuation Technical Review 
Lightspeed Venture Partners
OCTOBER 29, 2012
I’m posting my analysis of the most interesting story of Shark Tank season 4 episode 7 over there, and reviewing the rest of the pitches here. The company sought to raise $125,000 for 25% of the comapny, implying a $375,000 pre money valuation. The entrepreneurs dithered for a moment at the valuation.

An average of these ranges results in a pre-money valuation of about $4MM. If similarly situated companies are seeing $3.5MM pre-money valuations, this might become the target valuation. ($2mm invested divided by an average % ownership required to me the investor’s target of 33%).
