This paper researches the determinants of financing decisions of extreme growth companies. For this purpose, we use a longitudinal dataset, free of survivorship bias, covering the financing events of extreme growth companies for up to eight years. Results are generally consistent with the extended pecking order theory. Profitable companies are more likely to use internal finance, while they have unused debt capacity, which is contrary to the predictions of the static trade-off theory. External equity is used as a last resort. Nearly 20% of the firms issuing external equity have a negative shareholders' equity in the previous year. Finally, consistent with the static trade-off theory, companies with a higher probability and costs of financial distress and higher agency costs are more likely to issue external equity financing.

We analyse interactions of simultaneous shifts in comprehensive balance sheet items annually and identify common (latent) factors, which are consistent across years. Five factors are interpreted to reflect five major decisions in businesses: Financial Flexibility, Short-term Credit, Long-term Capital Investment, Convertible Debt Usage, and Preferred Stock Usage. We show that these factors are robust predictors of long-run stock returns and earn incremental returns beyond well-known asset pricing models and return anomalies. Consistent with the Q theory of investment, they create value up to three lags and are strong negative predictors of future cash flows and future earnings.

The techniques to finance a young, high growth company differ from those available for mature or established companies. They often lack equity to pursue their growth opportunities, while bank financing is not an option given the high level of risk and the unavailability of tangible assets as collateral. This book is intended to help entrepreneurs in their search for (equity) finance; it will help them to understand what financial intermediaries to look for and understand the language of the financial world. Financial planning, company valuation, contracting issues and deal structuring are explained theoretically and with case studies. Different types of investors, with opportunities and threats, are discussed. The working of business angels and of venture capital companies is explained. After having read this book, entrepreneurs will have an insight in the valuation and structuring issues that investors consider when evaluating, doing and exiting deals.

Venture capital (VC) refers to investments provided to early-stage, innovative, and high growth start-up companies. A common characteristic of all venture capital investments is that investee companies do not have cash flows to pay interest on debt or dividends on equity. Rather, investments are made with a view towards capital gain on exit. The most sought after exit routes are an initial public offering (IPO), where a company lists on a stock exchange for the first time, and an acquisition exit (trade sale), where the company is sold in entirety to another company. However, VCs often exit their investments by secondary sales, wherein the entrepreneur retains his or her share but the VC sells to another company or investor buybacks, where the entrepreneur repurchases the VC`s interest and write-offs (liquidations). The Oxford Handbook of Venture Capital provides a comprehensive picture of all the issues dealing with the structure, governance, and performance of venture capital from a global perspective. The handbook comprises contributions from 55 authors currently based in 12 different countries.
