问 HN:隐瞒有关股权稀释的信息有多常见?

1作者: nocaptable6 个月前
我曾在一家初创公司经历了两次融资,公司发展势头良好。<p>最近,我向公司领导层询问了我的股权被稀释了多少,纯粹是为了财务规划。我估计我的股权被“正常程度”地稀释了,对此我没意见——我只是想知道具体数字。但让我惊讶的是,领导层给了一个模棱两可的答复。所以,我很好奇:<p> - 在发展到中期的初创公司中,这种做法有多常见? - withholding this information的真正原因是什么?我理解公司可能希望对股权结构表保密,但员工的稀释比例似乎并不影响股权结构表的保密性,但对员工来说却非常重要。<p> 感谢您能提供的任何信息或见解。

I&#x27;ve been with a startup through two funding rounds, and growth has been very healthy.<p>I recently asked leadership how much I&#x27;ve been diluted, just for financial planning purposes. I assume I&#x27;ve been diluted &quot;a normal amount&quot; and am fine with that-- I just need to know the number. Instead I got a non-answer from leadership, which surprised me. So I&#x27;m curious:<p>- How common is this practice in mid-stage startups? - What is the actual rationale for withholding this information? I get why companies may want to keep the cap table confidential, but an employee&#x27;s dilution factor seems like the kind of thing that doesn&#x27;t matter for cap table confidentiality, but matters a lot to the employee.<p>Thanks in advance for any color or perspective on this.
