Series A funding usually starts when a startup is profitable and has at least reached the break-even stage. Series A represents the official funding by enterprises. And, when enterprises invest, it is in millions of dollars. Now, if a startup deems it necessary it can go for another funding round. But that will mean more diluted shares of the company.
If we calculate that scale, then the startup funding stages will be like…
Pre-Seeding Round: $0 to $50,000
Seeding Round: $50,000 to $3 million
Series A Funding: $3 million to $6 million
Series B Funding: $10 million to $30 million
Series C Funding: $30 million to $50 million
Series D Funding: $50 million and above
The startup company can either go for more funding rounds to announce an IPO.
But technically speaking, there is no last stage of startup funding, if a startup has more advanced revenue goals then it may go on to get series E, F, G and so on.
