It is raising $3 million at a $12 million pre-money valuation, and the term sheet requires the unallocated reserve to equal 10% of post-money capitalization.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Here, S is 10 million, U is 500,000, I/V is 0.25, and T is 0.10. The formula produces 857,143 additional reserve shares when rounded to the nearest share. The expanded pre-money capitalization becomes 10,857,143 shares, and the unallocated reserve becomes 1,357,143 shares.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>The financing price is approximately $1.1053 per share, so the investor receives approximately 2,714,286 shares.

The pre-money pool condition reduces their ownership by another 5.05 percentage points while the investor remains at 20%. That is the incremental cost to isolate before signing.\u003C/p>\u003Ch2>Compare the same target with post-money treatment\u003C/h2>\u003Cp>If the company completes the financing first and expands the reserve afterward, the new investor shares the dilution. In the hypothetical example, financing without a top-up creates 2.5 million investor shares at $1.20 per share, producing 12.5 million fully diluted shares before the later increase.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>To make the existing 500,000-share reserve equal 10% after a post-money increase, the company adds 833,333 reserve shares: (500,000 + X) / (12,500,000 + X) = 10%. Founders then own 60%, while the investor owns 18.75%. The reserve reaches the same 10% target, but the dilution is distributed differently.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Do not compare the pre-money and post-money cases by looking only at the number of added reserve shares.

Show every holder’s ownership before the pool increase, after the increase, and after the financing, together with the price per share in each case.\u003C/p>\u003Cp>The goal is not simply to minimize the pool. An undersized reserve can constrain planned hiring, while unused excess capacity dilutes existing holders before it supports an operating need.
