Fully Diluted Cap Table

The fully diluted cap table calculator converts raw share counts into a clean ownership breakdown. Enter each shareholder or group with their shares, including the ESOP pool, options, and any reserved equity, and the calculator returns fully diluted percentages, price per share, and the value of every stake.

What fully diluted means

A fully diluted cap table counts every share that could exist: issued common stock, preferred stock, the entire option pool whether granted or not, and shares reserved for warrants or convertibles. Investors evaluate ownership on a fully diluted basis because it reflects true economic ownership after all commitments are honored.

Price per share and stake values

When you enter a company valuation, the calculator divides it by total fully diluted shares to get the price per share, then multiplies each holding to show what every stake is worth on paper. This is useful for option grant conversations, secondary sales, and understanding what a term sheet implies for each shareholder.
