medium · Private Equity & LBOs

In a growth equity investment, an investor utilizes a 'Weighted Average Anti-Dilution' provision.

If the company subsequently raises a 'down round,' how is the investor's conversion price adjusted?

  1. The price is adjusted based on the relative amount of new shares issued compared to the total shares outstanding
  2. The investor is issued enough new shares to preserve their exact original ownership percentage
  3. The conversion price is automatically reset to match the new, lower share price, regardless of round size
  4. The conversion price stays exactly the same, but the liquidation preference is doubled as compensation for the dilution
