Once sales ramp up, it\u2019ll be easy to find venture investors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Or a startup is in a cash crunch. The founders agree to put in extra $100K to make payroll and pay the rent. They structure it as a loan so that they can get paid back as soon as they complete their funding round. Or so they think.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unfortunately, for early-stage startups, once you have a loan on the books, you\u2019ve locked yourself out of venture investment. So make sure you understand the implications before you take the cash.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For loans from founders or friends and family, investors will require you to convert the debt into an equity investment before they\u2019ll agree to invest.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Sword of Damocles Hanging Over Your Head<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you sign a loan, you\u2019re agreeing to a fixed repayment schedule. That\u2019s fine for later stage startups that have the cash flow to support repayment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But early-stage startups? You\u2019re going to be losing money for years. There\u2019s a high probability you won\u2019t have the cash flow to pay back the loan no matter what your financial models say.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And even if the company does have revenues, venture investors who are funding the enterprise are loath to put in money if they know a significant fraction of it has to go right back out to pay off debt holders instead of driving growth and expansion.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Debt Pinch<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Imagine you have a $2M interest-only loan at 12% that matures in 2 years. Every month, you need to pay $20K. Lose your biggest customer? Too bad \u2014 you still have to pay $20K. Have a big order where the customer won\u2019t pay for 90 days? Too bad \u2014 you still have to pay $60K in interest. Fail to pay and you\u2019re in default. There no flexibility.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then in 2 years, that loan matures. You have to pay back the $2M. Will the lender roll it over to a new loan? Well, that depends. If you\u2019re doing great and have $2M sitting in the bank, they\u2019ll probably be happy to extend the loan term. But if you\u2019re struggling, if you actually\u00a0<em>need\u00a0<\/em>the money, sorry, they\u2019ll say, pay up now. And with that, you\u2019re dead.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even worse for investors, if the company goes belly up, the debt holders get paid first. For a startup, that never leaves anything for the equity holders. Anything of value, from the cash in the bank, to the office furniture, to the patents and intellectual property get turned over to the debt holders.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It doesn\u2019t matter if you have $10M in venture investment with 1x or 2x or 10x liquidation preferences and only $100K in debt, until you pay off that $100K (plus salaries owed, taxes, accounts payable, credit cards, and everything else you contractually owe), equity holders get zip.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Advantage of Equity Investment<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s a lot of downsides to equity investment, but there\u2019s one big upside that trumps everything \u2014 there\u2019s no repayment. If the company pays dividends (typical for traditional businesses, unheard of for startups), equity investors get their share.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For startups, equity investors expect no repayment of their investment, no interest, no dividends, no anything except quarterly status updates until you sell the business in an acquisition or IPO. If you never get to an exit, well\u2026they won\u2019t be happy but that\u2019s the risk they take.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If it takes you longer to get to that exit than you planned (it always does), that doesn\u2019t change anything. If you need more capital than you expected (startups always do), then you raise more and everyone gets diluted. So long as there aren\u2019t any debt holders demanding to be paid back now.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, equity investors aren\u2019t loaning you money that they expect you to repay with interest. They\u2019re buying a fractional share of your business and betting on your success.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How About Venture Debt?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s been a lot of talk in recent years about venture debt as an alternative to venture capital. It isn\u2019t. At least not for early-stage startups.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you look into the details, you\u2019ll find everyone offering venture debt is only offering it to startups that already have the cash flow to support repayment. In other words, later-stage startups. Not you guys.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The one exception was Silicon Valley Bank. And look where it got them. (It\u2019s always ironic when a bank goes bankrupt for making bad investments.) The headline story was how their pile of long-dated treasury bills had lost value when interest rates rose. The real story, and the reason no other bank wanted to acquire SVB was their piles and piles of venture debt made to early-stage startups that couldn\u2019t repay them. Nobody is going to make that mistake again.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">But What About Convertible Notes???<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yeah. This is weird. Convertible notes, the traditional way of funding early-stage startups (and still preferred by many angel investors) is technically a loan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you read the convertible note document, it has a loan amount, a maturity date, and an interest rate. Yup, that\u2019s a loan. Even the word, \u201cnote\u201d, means loan. (And don\u2019t ever make the mistake of calling a SAFE a \u201cSAFE Note\u201d or you\u2019ll incur the wrath of the lawyer and accountants.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But\u2026the point of a convertible note is not to earn interest. It\u2019s to purchase equity when preferred stock is issued in the big next round. But we\u2019re giving you the cash now and calling it a loan. What looks like interest is just additional equity we earn for getting in early and waiting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But\u2026but\u2026but\u2026if you don\u2019t raise that big next round before the maturity date, you could be in trouble. Here\u2019s where the fine print matters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Founder-friendly convertible notes automatically convert at maturity at the valuation cap, or at some discount to the valuation cap, so it\u2019s clear the principal and \u201cinterest\u201d never have to be repaid. Investor-friendly convertible notes require repayment of the loan at maturity if not converted to equity before then.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In that case, you owe the full principal plus interest. In cash. At least technically. But nobody ever has the cash to pay back a convertible note. And if you did have the cash to pay back the note, investors would rather the note convert to equity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In every case I\u2019ve ever seen (and I\u2019ve seen a lot of cases), the investors agree to an extension. Sometimes we might demand warrants or some other concession as an incentive to agree to the extension. Usually, we just want to hear that the company is nearing funding and needs a little extra time to get there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Legally, we could demand the company pay us back. But if we do, we know we\u2019ll get nothing except the office furniture and a thumb drive with the source code. So we grumble and agree to an extension because there\u2019s nothing else we can do.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So yes, the convertible note is a legally loan, but it really isn\u2019t. Still, it\u2019s another reason for both founders and investors to prefer the SAFE over the convertible note.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Debt is useful for traditional businesses with somewhat predictable cash flows. Even later stage startups are usually leveraged with debt to manage working capital and capital expenses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But for early-stage startups, no matter how detailed your financial models, growth always takes at least twice as long as expected and costs at least twice as much. Loans provide no flexibility if the business isn\u2019t growing according to plan (it never is.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So if you plan to raise equity investment \u2014 venture capital and angels \u2014 avoid taking any debt now. If you need to tide the business over with a quick cash infusion to pay the bills in an emergency, get that loan off the books as soon as you can, before venture investors start looking over the books.<a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/tag\/startup?source=post_page---footer_tags--92ade045df1b---------------------------------------\"\/><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unlike equity investments, debt has to be repaid on a fixed schedule For startup founders, the offer is tempting for \u2014 take a $1M loan now to get over the hump.
