Cost of Capital Benchmark
The Cost of Capital Benchmark is a analytics tool, defined in a graphical format whose independent variables are time, industry, and region. The value of such a tool lies in its capability to reduce a venture capital deal to a numerical value and then compare that numerical representation to a baseline.
The core of the benchmark involves a propriatary algorithm to establish a numerical representation of the deal. The evaluation scale ranges from -1 (fully company-friendly) to +1 (fully-investor-friendly). Thus a common stock deal with weighted average antidilution would carry a much lower number than a full-ratchet, series D, down round. The algorithm is based on expert, internal research into subjective valuation and feedback from professionals in the industry.

How Does KIT Work?
Each company tearsheet is divided into three tabs: Company Description, Investments, and Graphical Analysis. You can move between each tab by clicking on it at the top of the tearsheet.
Company Description
Here you will find such information as the company location and main executive, or point of contact. You will also receive a breakdown of the investments and investors. By clicking on an investor's name, you will be taken to a brief overview page of that investment firm.
