Fully Diluted Shares

Определение

Fully diluted shares count all shares outstanding plus everything convertible into shares: options (granted and often the unallocated pool), warrants, SAFEs, and notes.

Как это возникает в процессе рейза

Valuations and ownership percentages are negotiated on a fully diluted basis, so a “10 percent” stake means 10 percent after all instruments convert.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Why do investors insist on fully diluted math?

It prevents ownership from being quietly eroded by instruments that convert later; everyone negotiates against the same complete denominator.

Does the unallocated option pool count?

Usually yes in venture negotiations, which is why pool expansions before a round effectively come out of founder ownership.
