NEWLY FUNDED COMPANIES - June 27th thru July 3rd
Total debt and equity in the capital markets decreased this week, compared to last week, by 70%; Venture capitalists also decreased their investments this week by 41% and funded 17 Companies for a total of $190 million. The decrease is primarily explained by a higher than average total investments last week and a short week this week.
Below you will find the analysis for the prior weeks funding environment. Capital Hunter reviewed venture capital, private equity and debt financings for all private and public companies in the United States, Canada, and Internationally. Capital Hunter reviewed and presented the data by Industry, Geography, and Stages of Development. Note that Capital Hunter does not report on real estate and mining company transactions. SBA loans, Federal and State grants are not included in the data below; however, these funding events are provided on a quarterly basis.
This week Capital Hunter identified a total of 38 funding events in North America raising a total of $1.638 billion in equity and debt. Internationally, we identified 8 funding events raising a total of $515.8 million in equity and debt.
The majority of the companies funded in North America (32 out of the 38) are located in the United States. Below are the highlights:
32 - U.S. FUNDED COMPANIES
Total capital raised was $1.638 billion with $522.66 million in equity and $1.115 billion in debt. Below are a few pie charts that illustrate the total equity financings in the United States by Geography, Industry and Stage of Development for the week:
GEOGRAPHY
New Jersey companies (primarily Wellman) received 32% of the total $522.66 million in equity raised in the United States.
Note: States that received equity funding less than $10 million were included with the OTHER category.
INDUSTRY
Manufacturing companies received 27% of the total $522.66 million in equity raised in the United States. Again, the Wellman financing explains most of the dollars raised in the manufacturing sector.
Note: Industries that received equity funding of $18 million or less were included with the OTHER category.
STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT
Privately held later stage companies received 45% of the total $522.66 million in equity raised in the United States. Later stage private placements and venture backed deals led the way this week with Kerasotes Theaters, Sanera Systems, and InPhonics being the largest later stage deals.
From the 32 U.S. companies financed, 18 are privately held and 14 are publicly traded companies. The average venture capital deal size this week was approximately $11.18 million.
