Liquidation Preference Waterfall Calculator

Liquidation Preference Waterfall: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers exit value (currency). Stub page while the tool and its worked example are prepared.

Liquidation Preference Waterfall Calculator is a planned calculator in the business section of Super Calculator, covering startup equity and fundraising.

What this calculator will compute

Inputs: exit value (currency), series by seniority with invested capital, multiple, participation and cap and common shares.

Outputs: proceeds by holder (currency), conversion decision per series and breakeven exit values.

Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Distributes exit proceeds by seniority: each preferred series takes the greater of its preference multiple times invested capital or its as-converted common share, with participating preferred taking both up to any cap. Non-participating holders elect the higher of the two, which requires evaluating each series at the conversion breakpoint.
