**Past performance is not indicative of future results. 55.5% net IRR represents all fully realized investments across the Equitybee platform, including US and Israel markets. Investors should be aware that these returns were primarily achieved during favorable market conditions. The Israel market reflects offers from June 2018 through December 2023; the US market reflects offers from March 2020 through December 2023. Net IRR is shown net of all applicable fees for the respective market. This performance data does not represent any investor’s portfolio or any model portfolio. IRR figures are calculated for each transaction into an offer on the Equitybee platform from the date the investor's funds were received through the distribution date of proceeds, if any. If the distribution date was less than one year after the invested date, the IRR represents an internal rate of return. For distributions one year or more after invested date, IRR is internal. Data quoted excludes partial returns of invested capital, e.g., tender offers for a portion of covered securities, and investments which have not experienced a liquidity event. As of December 31, 2023, approximately $100 million has been invested on the Equitybee platform; 16.3% of invested capital has experienced a fully realized return, 83.6% of invested capital is unrealized or partially realized.
Equitybee executes private financing contracts (PFCs), which allow an investor a percentage claim to employee stock options upon a liquidation event, with no guarantee of such an event, and is subject to the terms of your company options agreement. Entering into a PFC could limit your profits; you should consult with your own professional advisers prior to entering into PFCs. Funding is not guaranteed. PFCs are brokered by EquityBee Securities, LLC, member FINRA. A liquidity event is an acquisition, merger, initial public offering (IPO), or any other event at the company that allows shareholders to cash out some or all of their shares. A successful liquidity event is one where the proceeds exceed funding amount, additional cash received, and fees.EquityBee Securities Form CRS
