Yes, and it goes to the same people that the first 1.7B goes to.
The order of operations is not "everyone breaks even, then we start distributing profit".
The order of operations is "people with preferred stock (i.e. investors) get all their profit, and then employees get whatever's left over".
The fact that the amount of investment money put in is less than the sale price is meaningless. If you are an employee with options at a strike price of $5, and the common stock price is now $2, you're screwed.
All the investors before 2019 got multiples of their investment.
So series B is worth about 250M and series C is worth about 625M. Series C-2 is worth about 1.5B. Series D is worth 425M and Series D2 is worth 300M because of LP. That's a total of 3B.
That leaves 2B for everyone else. Most employees are going to get fucked big time, especially the ones after 2019. They will get a small fraction of their RSUs and all their options will be worthless, if they had options.
> the company re-cap'd employees at a more realistic valuation a couple years back. So looks like all employees benefited here which is a major win. Respect to the founders for looking out!
