Siguler Guff & CompanyOctober 2012

+ There has been a huge paradigm shift in VC over the last 12 years

+ 1990s+ Average net multiples to LPs were approximately 3-4x invested capital + Average life of a portfolio companies was 3.4 years+ Average fund sizes below $100 million+ Portfolio companies went public earlier and while they were “smaller”+ The IPO market was very robust

+ 2000s+ Returns have been low, and even negative for the last 10-15 years

+ Average fund multiples are only 1.2x+ Since 2000, only 6% of VC funds have had IRRs in excess of 20%, as

competition for deals have driven up entry multiples

+ Average life of portfolio companies is eight years+ With the average term of a VC fund at 10 years, there is a huge timing

mismatch+ VC fund terms must now be at least 15 years to match holding period of

investments

Source: Cambridge Associates LLC Non-Marketable Alternative Assets Database*Returns as of March 31, 2010. Returns are end-to-end pooled means to LPs, net of management fees, expenses, and carried interestThe end-to-end performance calculation is similar to the IRR, however it is measuring the return between two points in time. The calculation takes into account the beginning NAV as the initial investment. The subsequent quarterly cash flows and the ending NAV for the specified time period (i.e. one quarter, one year, etc.) are utilized in the same fashion as the IRR calculation. All returns greater than one year are annualized.
