Secfi’s company friendly financing solution provides cash today for employees to exercise stock options or obtain liquidity without selling their shares.
Our structure requires no pledge or transfer of shares and abides by all company restrictions. The employee retains full rights and ownership of the shares.
Secfi handles all operational aspects of the financing. We also provide employee education around equity and have in-house financial and tax advisors.
Employees receive cash today and pay back only upon a successful exit in the future so they are not jeopardizing their current financial position nor their financial future.
By exercising today, employees can sell in a potentially favorable tax situation upon exit. Plus, they retain the upside in the shares.
Our structure is constructed to abide by all company restrictions. There is no pledge of the shares nor a transfer of ownership. The shareholder retains full rights and ownership of the shares and has no requirement to deliver shares to us at any point.
The company is not a party to our financing contracts. We view ourselves as a partner to the companies we work with and aim to create a positive relationship for both our companies.
No. The shareholder retains ownership of the shares throughout the financing. After exit, they pay us back in cash and we do not require a transfer of shares before or after exit.
Unlike a sale of shares, our structure does not require a transfer of ownership. Therefore there is no impact on the 409A valuation.
