Accredited entity

Accredited entities are technically called “accredited investors”—that means they meet criteria set by the government that allow them to invest more freely. When people invest on Netcapital, we prompt them to become an accredited investor (or to accredit a holding entity) when it's relevant.

For entities, one or more of the following two criteria must be true:

  1. The entity has net assets in excess of $5,000,000 and wasn't formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the securities offered. It also meets one of the following criteria:
    • It's an organization that’s described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, a corporation, or a partnership.
    • It's a trust, and any purchase of securities is directed by a person with such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment.
  2. All of the equity owners of the entity are accredited investors.

It's also possible to become an accredited investor as a human.

The above is only a summary. If you want to know all the specifics, refer to 17 CFR 230.215 and 17 CFR 230.506.

Annual Income

Use the value listed on your federal tax return for last year. You may calculate your annual income jointly with your spouse.

Annual revenue

Your company’s annual revenue is equivalent to its gross income.

Net assets

Your company’s net assets are the value of your company’s total assets minus its total liabilities.

Net Worth

Net worth is calculated by subtracting your liabilities from your assets.

Do not include your primary residence as an asset or a liability, unless it is used to secure indebtedness in excess of its fair market value as of today. If that’s the case, count the amount of the liability that’s in excess of the fair market value of your primary residence as of today.

You may calculate your net worth jointly with your spouse.

Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is an agency of the United State government which is responsible for enforcing federal securities laws, proposing new securities rules, and regulating the securities industry. The SEC’s mission is to “protect investors, maintain fair, orderly, and efficient markets, and facilitate capital formation.”

Calculate your personal limit

For Section 4(a)(6) offerings, the SEC limits how much investors may invest in private companies in a given year. Section 4(a)(6) investors may invest the greater of $2,200, or 5% of the lesser of their annual income or net worth if the investor's net worth or annual income is less than $107,000.

A Reg CF investor may invest 10% of the lesser of their annual income or net worth if both their annual income and net worth are equal to or more than $107,000. There is a $107,000 aggregate investment limit across all issuers during any 12-month period. You may be able to invest over this amount if the offering is a side-by-side offering.

The following table created by the SEC provides a few examples:


Annual LimitNet WorthCalculation12-month Limit
$30,000$105,000greater of $2,200 or 5% of $30,000 ($1,500)$2,000
$150,000$80,000greater of $2,200 or 5% of $80,000 ($4,000)$4,000

Risks involved in an investment in FinLitX

Be sure to understand the risks of this type of investment. No regulatory body (not the SEC, not any state regulator) has passed upon the merits of or given its approval to the securities, the terms of the offering, or the accuracy or completeness of any offering materials or information posted herein. That’s typical for Regulation CF offerings like this one.

Risk 1.

Public health epidemics or outbreaks could adversely impact our business. In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. While initially the outbreak was largely concentrated in China and caused significant disruptions to its economy, it has now spread to several other countries and infections have been reported globally. The extent to which the coronavirus impacts our operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the outbreak, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact, among others. In particular, the continued spread of the coronavirus globally could adversely impact our operations, and could have an adverse impact on our business and our financial results.

Risk 2.

Any valuation at this stage is difficult to assess. Unlike listed companies that are valued publicly through market-driven stock prices, the valuation of private companies, especially startups, is difficult to assess and you may risk overpaying for your investment. In addition, there may be additional classes of equity with rights that are superior to the class of equity being sold.

Risk 3.

The Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. The Company currently intends to retain future earnings, if any, for the foreseeable future, to repay indebtedness and to support its business. The Company does not intend in the foreseeable future to pay any dividends to holders of its shares of common stock.

Risk 4.

We are highly dependent on the Services of our founder. Our future business and results of operations depend in significant part upon the continued contributions of our CEO and founder. If we lose those services or if he fails to perform in his current position, or if we are not able to attract and retain skilled employees in addition to our CEO and the current team, this could adversely affect the development of our business plan and harm our business. In addition, the loss of any other member of the board of directors or executive officers could harm the Company's business, financial condition, cash flow and results of operations.

Risk 5.

Start-up investing is risky. Investing in early-stage companies is very risky, highly speculative, and should not be made by anyone who cannot afford to lose their entire investment. Unlike an investment in a mature business where there is a track record of revenue and income, the success of a startup or early-stage venture often relies on the development of a new product or service that may or may not find a market. Before investing, you should carefully consider the specific risks and disclosures related to both this offering type and the company.

Risk 6.

Your shares are not easily transferable. You should not plan on being able to readily transfer and/or resell your security. Currently there is no market or liquidity for these shares and the company does not have any plans to list these shares on an exchange or other secondary market. At some point the company may choose to do so, but until then you should plan to hold your investment for a significant period of time before a liquidation event occurs.

Risk 7.

You may only receive limited disclosure. While the company must disclose certain information, since the company is at an early-stage they may only be able to provide limited information about its business plan and operations because it does not have fully developed operations or a long history. The company may also only obligated to file information periodically regarding its business, including financial statements. A publicly listed company, in contrast, is required to file annual and quarterly reports and promptly disclose certain events — through continuing disclosure that you can use to evaluate the status of your investment.
