Venture Capital Outlook 2016
1
Mark Suster & Kevin Zhang
@msuster & @kevinyzhang
Some of our industry’s smartest thinkers have a
different world view.
So who’s right?
2
One thing I’m certain of - we’re in a bubble
Trade in an asset
at a price that
strongly
deviates from
asset's intrinsic
value
A surge in prices,
more than warranted
by fundamentals &
usually in a particular
sector. Followed by a
drastic drop in prices
as a selloff occurs
Widescreen Template - Aug. 2015
So will 2016
be the year
the craziness
finally ends?
Who the
fuck knows.
I’ve been
calling the
peak for 2
years
While many great companies are being created, I call BS on 50 new billion-
dollar US companies in just 18 months

Late stage valuations (D round non-VC) are frothy, driven by demand from outsiders (vs. C round
led by VCs). We see similar trends now happening in Seed & A rounds driven by crowdfunding.

Many syndicates have
deal-level carry. This has
led some to become
super promoters.
Some behavior in the
less reputable
crowdfunding platforms
bordering on criminal.

Ambitious technologies Superior monetization
Despite hype, valuations and froth - amazing companies are being created.
Perhaps more than we’ve ever seen
What is driving some of the craziness?

Conclusion

• Let there be no doubt: private tech markets are over-valued
• Driver is influx of new capital sources with less discipline
• Fund markups for some might be filled with Quirky surprises
• Many VCs walking portfolio through private RIP Good Times speeches
• Yet tech innovation will continue to grow as proportion of economy,
leading to continued returns for best VCs in industry

  • 2. Some of our industry’s smartest thinkers have a different world view. So who’s right? 2
  • 3. One thing I’m certain of - we’re in a bubble Trade in an asset at a price that strongly deviates from asset's intrinsic value A surge in prices, more than warranted by fundamentals & usually in a particular sector. Followed by a drastic drop in prices as a selloff occurs
  • 4. Widescreen Template - Aug. 2015 So will 2016 be the year the craziness finally ends?
  • 5. Who the fuck knows. I’ve been calling the peak for 2 years

  • 7. Late stage valuations (D round non-VC) are frothy, driven by demand from outsiders (vs. C round led by VCs). We see similar trends now happening in Seed & A rounds driven by crowdfunding. 7 Late stage private company median valuations ($M) Public markets are more reasonable (iShares US Tech ETF, 7/1/12 to 6/30/15 40 80 120 160 200 2012 2013 2014 1H 2015 88 100 136 184 50 57 70 83 Series C Series D+ Source: Pitchbook 2H 2015 VC Valuations & Trends Report, iShares US Tech ETF CAGR CAGR: 15% 18% 28%

  • 16. 16 Ambitious technologies Superior monetization Despite hype, valuations and froth - amazing companies are being created. Perhaps more than we’ve ever seen

  • 24. Conclusion 24 • Let there be no doubt: private tech markets are over-valued • Driver is influx of new capital sources with less discipline • Fund markups for some might be filled with Quirky surprises • Many VCs walking portfolio through private RIP Good Times speeches • Yet tech innovation will continue to grow as proportion of economy, leading to continued returns for best VCs in industry
