A proposito di questo titolo
 Lucas and Luna examine the mechanics of startup liquidity events—IPOs, SPAC mergers, direct listings, and acquisitions—through the lens of recent filings, valuation history, and founder outcomes. Each episode starts with a specific deal: the pricing decision at an IPO roadshow, the negotiation dynamics of a term sheet, or the lockup expiration that defines a founder's final payout. They track the numbers that matter: share dilution, insider participation, valuation step-ups, and the real multiples that investors demand at each stage. Lucas brings the journalistic rigor—company filings, SEC comments, historical precedents—while Luna focuses on the founder's perspective: how much control they retain, how they time their exit, and what liquidity actually means for their personal balance sheet. Together, they avoid the cheerleading common in startup media and instead ask hard questions: Did this deal serve the founders or the VCs? What does the secondary market tell us about the company's real worth? How do lockup agreements protect or trap early investors? The show is built for founders considering an exit, investors sizing up IPO allocations, and anyone who wants to understand the financial engineering behind the headlines. After each episode, the listener walks away with a clearer picture of a specific liquidity event—not as a success story or cautionary tale, but as a case study in negotiation, timing, and market psychology. What was the last deal that paid off for everyone—and who got left behind? #IPO #StartupExits #FounderLiquidity #MergersAndAcquisitions #DirectListing #SPAC #VentureCapital #SecondaryMarkets #LockupPeriod #Valuation #SECFilings #InvestmentBanking #EquityMarkets #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Technology #Finance Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo© 2026 Fexingo.

  • The Nvidia Leadership Crisis and Startup Exit Valuations

    The Nvidia Leadership Crisis and Startup Exit Valuations
    Nov 12 2026
    With Nvidia's stock dropping over four percent this week amid reports of board-level turmoil surrounding CEO Jensen Huang, the ripple effects on the broader tech ecosystem are becoming impossible to ignore. We examine how leadership instability at a market anchor changes the calculus for startup founders considering acquisitions versus public listings. When the bellwether company is distracted by internal governance questions rather than product cycles, strategic buyers pause, due diligence deepens, and founder liquidity events face new friction points. This episode breaks down why valuation premiums are shrinking in uncertain times and what that means for operators planning their exit strategy right now. #NvidiaLeadership #StartupExits #FounderLiquidity #TechMergers #ValuationRisk #CorporateGovernance #AcquisitionStrategy #VentureCapital #IPOMarket #BusinessPodcast #FinanceNews #TechEconomy #FexingoBusiness #LucasAndLuna #ExitPlanning #MarketVolatility #PrivateEquity #StrategicBuyers Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

    The Hidden Tax of Post-IPO Dilution
    Nov 11 2026
    Most founders celebrate the IPO as the finish line, but today we look at why the first twelve months after going public are actually the most dangerous for founder wealth. We examine how secondary stock sales, employee option pools, and strategic buybacks quietly erode ownership stakes. Using recent market data from November 2026, we break down the real math behind dilution and what smart operators are doing to protect their equity when the market turns. #StartupExits #IPODilution #FounderEquity #PostIPOStrategy #SecondarySales #EmployeeStockOptions #VentureCapital #PublicMarkets #WealthPreservation #CorporateGovernance #StockBuybacks #FounderControl #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #FinanceNews #TechInvesting #StartupGrowth #LucasAndLuna Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
