How the reduction is calculated

A $250,000 request for 5% implies $5 million; a $250,000 offer for 25% implies $1 million. That's an 80% reduction: one minus the accepted implied value divided by the opening implied value. A higher cash offer can soften the reduction when the shark also takes more equity. The list shows 25 comparisons from 671 records whose cash, equity and valuation fields agree within a 0.5% rounding allowance. Known royalties, credit and investments in a different venture are excluded. Equal reductions share a rank. The figures describe recorded on-air terms, not completed funding.
