Valuation Updates from Company Cap Tables
What's New?
Carta fund admin users can instantly be notified about share price updates for portfolio companies with their cap tables on Carta. As Carta companies publish new share classes or file updated Articles of Incorporation (AOI), funds with basic or higher cap table access may receive notifications about these updates. In addition, users will have the option to apply these updates to their Schedule of Investments (SOI) immediately.
When a Carta company raises a new round and publishes it on their cap table, firms with appropriate access can be notified, and Carta will automatically mark their share value to the latest price on the AOI.
How it Works
When a company has their cap table on Carta and raises funding through an equity round, they update their cap table by sharing the publicly filed Articles of Incorporation and revising their cap table data to reflect the new ownership and share price.
The Fund Administration team reviews these updates when a new share class is authorized with a filed state incorporation document amendment. Fund admin users who a Carta company has granted basic, advanced, or detailed access to the cap table will be notified of updates through email. The email will contain a link to information such as share class, share price, and impact on fund metrics.
Who This Affects
Firms who have requested and been granted basic, advanced or full detail level access to the cap tables and financing history for their Carta portfolio companies will be notified of new filings.
Why This is Awesome
Carta serves a powerful network of equity and ownership data, which provides a single source of truth for companies and VC firms. This enables accurate data to be leveraged in multiple places, reducing discrepancies, confusion, and manual updates of investment valuations.
