Non-Dilutive Growth Funding from Cypress...
More Than Just Capital
What is royalty-based growth capital?
An alternative to equity, royalty-based growth capital provides funding in exchange for a fixed percentage of your company’s future monthly revenues. The terms are simple: when the sum of the monthly royalty payments reaches a predetermined cap, the obligation is complete.
-
Preserve Equity
Royalty-based growth capital is structured as flexible debt allowing you to access the capital you need without giving up valuable equity -
Retain Control
For the business owner who wants to keep his or her company closely held, we never require a board seat or other control provisions typical of equity investments -
Payback Flexibility
Royalty-based growth capital is friendly to your cash flow due to its adaptive payment structure. The actual dollar amount you pay each month automatically adjusts with your company’s revenue performance -
Aligned Incentives
Our capital approach does not require a liquidity event for success. Each investment is tailored as flexible, long-term debt with entrepreneur-friendly features specifically designed for emerging companies

The Only Certainty is Uncertainty
Mathematician John Allen Paulos’ famous saying was validated this month with the turmoil from Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and the associated uncertainty that rippled through the tech world.

But in the rush to offer “hot takes” on banking, venture capital and government oversight, the most notable constituency minimized in the discussion has been emerging tech companies themselves. How will the fallout impact them?
