What is
StartEngine?
StartEngine is a leading alternative investment platform, with a community of 2.1M+ and $1.5B committed by investors.¹ We aim to provide a comprehensive gateway into private markets, from startup investing to SPVs providing exposure to VC-backed companies like Discord and Perplexity.⁴ Now, StartEngine is preparing for the next evolution of the private markets: tokenization.

Why Now?
Private Investing is Having a Moment.5
Institutions have long invested in the private markets. Now individuals want a seat at the table. Specifically, more investors are building a 50/30/20 portfolio, a mix of 50% equities, 30% fixed income, and 20% alternative assets that can help increase return potential and reduce risk.*
That's driving momentum for alternative investing platforms like StartEngine — and Wall Street is taking notice. 

Charles Schwab acquired pre-IPO marketplace Forge Global ($52.7M revenue H1 2025) for $660M, while Morgan Stanley is acquiring private share platform EquityZen (revenue unavailable). Meanwhile, tokenization firm Securitize ($32.8M revenue H1 2025) announced a $1.3B SPAC.

The Fuel Behind
Our $70M YTD
StartEngine Private provides accredited investors with exposure to well-known, VC-backed companies, without the typical six-figure commitments. That includes single-asset Series and diversified Funds with exposure to multiple companies via a single check. Launched just 2 years ago, this product line has fueled our growth — record $92M revenue YTD in 2025, up over 2X YoY.²

Tokenization: The Future of Capital Markets
With a crypto-friendly SEC and Congress, regulators are finally embracing what we’ve long believed: tokenization is the future of capital markets. We plan on becoming a leader in making tokenized, real-world assets accessible to everyone. We’re in the process of tokenizing $3B+ in digital securities using the ERC-1450 blockchain standard introduced by StartEngine CEO Howard Marks.

We're aiming to build a future where everyday investors can own real assets on-chain. StartEngine shareholders own a piece of that future, too.
Past performance may not be indicative of future performance. For full details and to understand impact on margins, see financials and footnote 2 below.
StartEngine's Shared Success Model with Companies
Don't forget: When companies raise capital on StartEngine, we take equity fees, typically around 1% of what issuers raise.

While equity fees create potential upside, they are not guaranteed sources of return, and returns to date have been nominal. For more information, see footnote 6 below.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP adjusted to exclude interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization, and stock based compensation. We present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding our operational performance and our ability to generate cash flows. Non-GAAP information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as or comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies.

4. The underlying companies held by StartEngine Private Funds LLC, and StartEngine Private LLC (together, “StartEngine Private”) are not participating or involved in the offering. The availability of company information does not indicate that the company has endorsed, supports or otherwise participates with StartEngine Private or any of its affiliates. StartEngine Crowdfunding LLC purchases shares from current and former employees, early investors, and advisors of the companies and sells the shares to StartEngine Private for each offering. When you make an investment in a company on StartEngine Private, you are purchasing an interest in a series of StartEngine Private Funds LLC or StartEngine Private LLC, each a Delaware limited liability company (together the “Series LLCs”), which were created to hold shares of privately held companies. An investor will not directly own or hold shares of the private company but instead will own member interests in a series of the Series LLCs, which either directly or indirectly, will hold shares in the company. There may not be a one-to-one economic parity on the value of the Series LLCs interests and the underlying shares.
