VENTURE CAPITAL EXITS TAKING LONGER
SOFTWARE COMPANIES TAKING ABOUT 91 MONTHS TO EXIT A recent research report published by SVB Financial elucidates how diff icult it has been for venture capitalists to exit their investment across various sectors. Data combined from Dow Jones Venture Source and SVB measures the time and capital it takes for a venture-backed company to go public, be sold or go out of business. In the software sector, the median exit multiple (calculated as the value of the company at the time of exit divided by the amount of capital invested in the company) since 2001 was 0.0x to 0.1x compared to 3.7x to 10.7x between 1994 and 2001. Moreover, the median time it takes to exit these companies is at an all-t ime high of 91 months (7.6 years).
Total capital raised in August (so far) is $129.4 million: Online gaming company Turbine, Inc. raised $50 mill ion in August – the largest transaction in August. Mint, a vertical community site (offering web-based solutions for financial management), was a distant second raising $14.1 mill ion. Total capital raised in July on 31 transactions was $178.7 mill ion, averaging $5.8 mill ion, and June was $196.1 mill ion (averaging $4.9 mill ion). The average for August, month-to-date so far, is $10 mill ion.
