Editing Freetrade

Investing in investments is one of the best ways to grow your money, and Freetrade is a company that's on a mission to get everyone investing.<ref name=":8" /> 

The main offering of the company is an app that enables people in the United Kingdom to buy and sell from around 6,000 investments without paying any trading commissions. Currently, there doesn't seem to be an obvious material uniqueness of the offering relative to peers, such as Trading 212. 

Assuming that Freetrade increases its share of the global brokerage market to 1% (from less than 0.01%) and other assumptions, the expected return of an investment in the company over the next five years is ccc%, which equates to an annual return of ccc%. In other words, an £100,000 investment in the company is expected to return £ccc in five years time. 

The degree of risk associated with an investment in Freetrade is 'high', with there currently being insufficient data to calculate the beta of the stock relatively accurately.{{Infobox company

==Operations==

=== How did the idea of the company come about? ===
The idea for Freetrade Limited came about when the company's founder and CEO, Adam Dodds, relocated from Canada to the UK. He had been an investor since his teenage years and was working as a Manager at KPMG. Upon arriving in the UK, Dodds was surprised by the quality of investment platforms available, particularly in terms of their cost and usability. This experience appears to have been instrumental in his decision to create Freetrade, which aimed to offer a superior investment platform in these respects. <ref name=":8">https://freetrade.io/about</ref>

== Market ==
The company is expected to make most of its money via brokerage-related services, such as foreign exchange transactions.

=== Total Addressable Market ===
Here, the total addressable market (TAM) is defined as the global brokerage market, and based on a number of assumptions, it is estimated that the size of the market as of today (6th May 2023), in terms of revenue, is $1.3 trillion.<ref>https://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/5141120/securities-brokerages-and-stock-exchanges</ref>

=== Serviceable Available Market ===
Here, the serviceable available market (SAM) is defined as the global equity brokerage market, and based on a number of assumptions, it is estimated that the size of the market as of today (6th May 2023), in terms of revenue, is $334 billion.

=== Serviceable Obtainable Market ===
Here, the serviceable obtainable market (SOM) is defined as the UK equity brokerage market, and based on a number of assumptions, it is estimated that the size of the market as of today (6th May 2023), in terms of revenue, is $33 billion.

== Competition ==

A key way to determine a product's closest competitors is by looking at other offerings that are targeting the same or similar target audience (i.e. Active Investors) and aiming to provide the same core benefit (i.e. more money), and then ranking the offerings in terms of the total amount of time spent using and/or money spent purchasing the offerings relative to other similar offerings. With that said, according to Stockhub users, the closest competitor of the Freetrade offering is Trading 212. 

Freetrade and Trading 212 are similar in that they both offer commission free trading. Trading 212 is better than Freetrade in terms of the number of investments offered (12,000 vs. 6,000), FX fees (0.15% vs. 0.39%) and platform usage fee [Zero vs. £5.99 per month to access the 6,000 investments (note, to access 1,500 investments only, there is no fee)]. Currently, there doesn't seem to be an obvious material uniqueness of the Freetrade platform. A detailed comparison between Freetrade and some of its main competitors are shown in the table below.

==== What are the assumptions used to estimate the financial forecasts?====

|-
| colspan="3" | <div style="text-align: center;">'''Revenue'''</div>
|-
|What's the estimated current size of the total addressable market?
|$1,300,000,000
|Here, the total addressable market (TAM) is defined as the global brokerage market, and based on a number of assumptions<ref group="Note" name="Note01" />, it is estimated that the size of the market as of today (6th May 2023), in terms of revenue, is $1.3 trillion.
|-
|What is the estimated company lifespan?
|50 years
|Currently, Freetrade employs around 201, making the company a small organisation (less than 10,000 employees). That said, given the company's mission, we expect the company to grow to a large organisation, and research shows that the average lifespan of a large corporation is around 50 years.<ref>Stadler, Enduring Success, 3–5.</ref>
|-
|What's the estimated annual growth rate of the total addressable market over the lifecycle of the company?
|3%
|Research shows that the growth rate of the global automotive market (i.e. the total addressable market) is similar to the growth rate of global gross domestic product<ref>http://www.robertpicard.net/files/econgrowthandadvertising.pdf</ref>, which has averaged (medium) around 3% per year in the last 20 years (2001 to 2022)<ref>https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/WLD/world/gdp-growth-rate</ref>.
|-
|What's the estimated company peak market share?
|10%
|The Stockhub users estimate that especially given the leadership of the company, the peak market share of Freetrade is around 10%, and, therefore, suggests using the share amount here. As of 31st December 2021, Freetrade's current share of the market is estimated at around 1.8%.
|-
|Which distribution function do you want to use to estimate company revenue?
|Gaussian 
|Research suggests that the revenue pattern of companies is similar to the pattern produced by the Gaussian distribution function  (i.e. the revenue distribution is bell shaped)<ref>http://escml.umd.edu/Papers/ObsCPMT.pdf</ref>, so the Stockhub users suggest using that function here.
|-
|What's the estimated standard deviation of company revenue?
| 6 years
|Another way of asking this question is this way: within how many years either side of the mean does 68% of revenue occur? Based on Freetrade's current revenue amount (i.e. £12.68 million) and Freetrade's estimated lifespan (i.e. 50 years) and Freetrade's estimated current stage of its lifecycle (i.e. introduction stage), the Stockhub users suggest using 6 years (i.e. 68% of all sales happen within 6 years either side of the mean year), so that's what's used here.
|-
| colspan="3" |'''<div style="text-align: center;">Growth stages</div>'''
|-
|How many main stages of growth is the company expected to go through?
| 4 stages
|Research suggests that a company typically goes through four distinct stages of cash flow growth.<ref>Levie J, Lichtenstein BB (2010) A terminal assessment of stages theory: Introducing a dynamic approach to entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship: Theory & Practice 34(2): 317–350. <nowiki>https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1540-6520.2010.00377.x</nowiki></ref> Research also shows that incorporating those stages into the discounted cash flow model improves the quality of the model and, ultimately, the quality of the value estimation.<ref>Stef Hinfelaar et al.:, 2019.</ref>

In addition, research shows that a key way to determine the stage which a company is in is by examining the cash flow patterns of the company.<ref>Dickinson, 2010.</ref> A summary of the economic links to cash flow patterns can be found in the appendix of this report. The Stockhub users estimate that with Freetrade's operating cash flows negative (-), investing cash flows negative (-) and its financing cash flows positive (+), the company is in the first stage of growth (i.e. the 'introduction' stage), and, therefore, it has a total of four main stages of growth. Note, to account for one-off events, the three-year average (median) amount was used to calculate the cash flows.

== Risks ==
As with any investment, investing in Freetrade carries a level of risk. Overall, based on the key risks highlighted below, the degree of risk associated with an investment in Freetrade is higher than in a company that's trading on a public market (such as Hargreaves Lansdown).

=== Early-stage investment ===
Freetrade is at one of the earliest stages of the business lifecycle, and the failure rate of companies at that stage is usually much higher than those at a later stage. As of 2022, 57% of companies that are incorporated in the United Kingdom fail within the first five years of the companies incorporation, according to the Office for National Statistics.<ref>https://www.ons.gov.uk/businessindustryandtrade/business/activitysizeandlocation/bulletins/businessdemography/2020#the-south-west-continued-to-have-the-highest-five-year-survival-rate</ref>

=== Illiquid investment ===
The number of transactions in shares of private companies is usually significantly lower than in public companies, typically resulting in it taking longer to sell shares in private companies at a price that is at least equal to the price that the shares were bought at. Accordingly, the Freetrade investment opportunity is considered to be higher risk than more liquid companies.

=== Regulatory ===
Freetrade operates in an industry with extensive and comprehensive regulation. The risk that the company fails to comply with the existing standards of the regulatory system has the potential impact for financial penalties, regulatory censure and negative publicity. There is also a risk that the regulatory environment evolves in a manner that has a negative impact on its business and operations, whether through reduced revenue, higher costs or increases in capital and liquidity requirements.

=== Business ===
Freetrade operates in a competitive environment and runs the risk that revenue and customer growth do not meet expectations or slow down. Freetrade’s customer activity is sensitive to market conditions and volatility.

=== Operational ===
High volume or levels of activity through the trading platform can place stress on Freetrade’s systems, people and processes, which could result in service outages or in Freetrade being unable to deliver the level of service that its customers expect. Poor customer service and outcomes could result in a loss of customers and reputational damage.

=== Conduct ===
Freetrade runs the risk that its culture, values and actions fail to adequately support customer focused conduct and thereby lead to potentially poor customer outcomes or not treating customers fairly. Equally, Freetrade interacts with financial markets and poorly controlled activities could threaten the sound, stable, resilient and transparent operation of the financial markets. These risks could result in regulatory censure, as well as a reputational impact, a loss of customers and increased difficulty in attracting new customers.

=== Information security ===
Freetrade or its trusted third party service providers could suffer a data breach as a result of a cyber attack, just as any other financial services company. Such a breach could result in financial penalties or censure from both data protection and financial regulators. As well as reputational damage impacting Freetrade's ability to attract and retain customers.

=== Third party ===
Freetrade contracts with third-party providers to provide services to customers and to support back-end processes. The risk of a loss of service from a third-party provider which could result in a delay or inability to process customer transactions or perform regulatory reconciliations and could result in customer dissatisfaction and financial loss to Freetrade through a reduction in transactions through the trading platform or regulatory penalties.

== Valuation ==
===What's the expected return of an investment in the company?===

The Stockhub users estimate that the expected return of an investment in the company over the next five years is negative 24%, which equates to an annual return of ccc%. In other words, an £1,000 investment in the company is expected to return £760 in five years time. The assumptions used to estimate the return figure can be found in the table below.

Assuming that a suitable return level over five years is 10% per year and Freetrade achieves its expected return level (of negative 24%), then an investment in the company is considered to be an 'unsuitable' one.

===What are the assumptions used to estimate the return?===

| Which valuation model do you want to use?
|Discounted cash flow 
|Research suggests that in terms of estimating the expected return of an investment over a period of 12-months or more, the approach that is more accurate is the discounted cash flow approach<ref name=":5">Demirakos et al., 2010; Gleason et al., 2013</ref>, so that's the approach that he Stockhub users suggest to use here; nevertheless, for completeness purposes, separately, the valuation of the company is also estimated using the using the relative valuation approach (the valuation based on the relative approach can be found in the appendix of this report).

Freetrade has never paid cash dividends, and on 7th February 2022, it said that it currently does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Stockhub users suggest using the free cash flow valuation method (rather than the dividend discount model).

===Sensitive analysis===

The main inputs that result in the greatest change in the expected return of the Freetrade investment are, in order of importance (from highest to lowest):   

#The size of the total addressable market (the default size is $1.3 trillion);
#Freetrade peak market share (the default share is 10%); and
#The discount rate (the default time-weighted average rate is 10%).

The impact of a 50% change in those main inputs to the expected return of the Freetrade investment is shown in the table below.

=== Relative valuation approach ===
As noted earlier in this report, research suggests that in terms of estimating the expected return of an investment over a period of 12-months or more, the approach that is more accurate is the discounted cash flow approach, so that's the approach that Stockhub suggests using to determine the estimated value of the company (the valuation based on the discounted cash flow approach can be found in the valuation section of this report); nevertheless, for completeness purposes, separately, the valuation of the company is also estimated using the relative valuation approach.

==== What's the expected return of an investment in Freetrade using the relative valuation approach? ====
Stockhub estimates that the expected return of an investment in Freetrade Inc over the next five years is 948%, which equates to an annual return of 60%. In other words, an £1,000 investment in the company is expected to return £10,480 in five years time. The assumptions used to estimate the return figure can be found in the table below.

Assuming that a suitable return level over the next five years is 20% per year and Freetrade achieves its expected return level (of 60% per year), then an investment in the company is considered to be a 'suitable' one.

|Which type of multiple do you want to use?
|Growth-adjusted EV/sales
|For the numerator, the Stockhub users believe that to account for the different financial leverage levels of its peers, it's best to use enterprise value (EV), rather than price. For the denominator, the Stockhub users believe that because it expects Freetrade to reinvest almost all of its revenue back into the business over the five year forecast period and therefore its earnings are expected to be abnormally low over the period, it's best to use sales. Accordingly, the Stockhub users suggest valuing its company using the EV/sales ratio. However, the Stockhub users think that to take into account the different business lifecycle stages of its peers, the most suitable valuation multiple to use is the growth-adjusted EV/sales multiple, rather than the EV/sales multiple.
|-
|In regards to the growth-adjusted EV/sales multiple, for the sales figure, which year to you want to use?
|Year 5
|Stockhub suggests that with sales forecast to grow exponential over the five year forecast period, it's best to use forward-looking data, rather than historic data.
In regards to the growth-adjusted EV/sales multiple, for the sales figure, Stockhub suggests that in order to account for the forecasted exponential growth of the business, it's best to use one at the end of the forecast period (i.e. Year 5).
|-
|In regards to the growth-adjusted EV/sales multiple, for the sales growth figure, which year(s) do you want to use?
|Year 6, from now
|Stockhub suggests that for the sales growth figure, it's best to use Year 6.
|-
|In regards to the growth-adjusted EV/sales multiple, what multiple figure do you want to use?
|0.22x
|In Stockhub's view, Freetrade closest peers are AJ Bell, Hargreaves Lansdown, Robinhood Markets, Inc and Avanza Bank Holding AB.

=== Funding History<ref>https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/freetrade-limited</ref> ===
As of November 24th 2021, the company held a valuation of £658 million. However, it has since executed two funding rounds through debt financing instead of equity, which hints at a potential decrease in its valuation from the previous £658 million.

=== Other information ===
Freetrade was unsuccessful in its 'Freetrade' word application in the EU.<ref>https://www.trademarkelite.com/europe/trademark/trademark-detail/014989172/FREETRADE</ref> Does this mean that Freetrade has to pay the trademark holder a fee to use the 'Freetrade' word in the EU?

=== Key terms of the convertible loan note ===
{| class="wikitable"
|+Key terms
! colspan="3" |A convertible loan is an investment for equity in a company where shares will be issued at a future date. Usually, the shares will be issued when the company completes a larger round of investment. A convertible loan allows a company to raise equity finance without setting a valuation.

Please see below a summary of the key terms of within tranche 1 of the convertible loan notes offered to Crowdcube investors in this round.
|-
|Share type(s) on offer
|Series B shares.
|The convertible loan notes will convert into the most senior share class created and in issue at the point of conversion.

The Company's most senior share class is currently Series B shares, which carry voting and pre-emption rights and a preference to receive the issue price back first alongside the other preference shares in certain circumstances.
|-
|Duration/Relevant Date
|12 months from the date of issue.
|If no conversion event occurs before this date, the convertible loan notes will automatically convert into Shares.
|-
|Discount Rate
|20%
|This is the amount of discount on the Shares which investors will receive compared to the share price at which other shares in the Company are being issued following a Qualified Financing event.
|-
|Interest
|N/A.
|The convertible loan notes offered in tranche 1 of this Crowdcube round do not accrue interest.
|-
|Valuation Cap
|£400,000,000 pre-money valuation.
|Convertible loans may contain a Valuation Cap, which is the maximum pre-money valuation of the Company that will be used to calculate the share price if there is a Qualified Financing prior to the Relevant Date.
|-
|Default Price
|£3.7711
|The Default Price is the price per Share of the Company that will be used to calculate the number of Shares investors will receive following a CET1 Capital Event, Sale or on the Relevant Date.
|-
|Conversion Events
|The convertible loan will convert into fully paid Shares on the occurrence of the following:

* Qualified Financing - automatically if the Company raises at least £40,000,000 at a price per Share of more than £3.7711 (Default Price).
* CET1 Capital Event - in the event that the capital held by the Company to meet its regulatory capital requirements under the FCA’s rules, falls below a certain level. Please note that in the event that there is a CET1 Capital Event only the amount of outstanding convertible loan required to meet the regulatory capital requirement will convert.
* Relevant Date - if no conversion event has occurred automatically on the date falling 12 months after the date of issue of the convertible loan note (or such other date as may be agreed between the Company and the Noteholder Majority).
* Sale - automatically on a sale of all, or substantially all of, the Company’s assets; or a sale of any of the shares in the Company resulting in a change of control of the Company.
|The convertible loan notes will convert into fully paid Shares in the Company on the occurrence of certain events.
|-
|Conversion Price
|
* On a Qualified Financing a price per Share equal to the lower of:
** the lowest price per Share paid by investors in the Qualified Financing by a 20% discount; and
** a price per share which results from dividing a pre-money valuation of £400,000,000 by the number of Shares in the Fully Diluted Share Capital.
* On a CET1 Capital Event; the Relevant Date; or a Sale, the Default Price (£3.7711 per Share).
|This is the price per Share at which the convertible loan notes will convert into Shares in the Company following a Qualified Financing, CET1 Capital Event, Relevant Date or Sale.

|Additional Shares
|In the event that, following conversion of any of the convertible loan notes prior to a Qualified Financing, the Company issues Shares at a price less than the Default Price, noteholders will  be issued with such number of additional Conversion Shares to put them in the position they would have been if the loan notes had converted at the lower price.

-Investing in investments is one of the best ways to grow your money<ref>There is substantial evidence to suggest that investing is one of the best ways to grow your money over time. Here are a few key points:
-) Historical Returns: Over the long term, the stock market has provided substantial returns. For example, the S&P 500, an index of the 500 largest companies in the United States, has delivered an average annual return of approximately 10% since its inception in 1926. While past performance is not a guarantee of future returns, this long-term trend suggests that investing in a diversified portfolio of stocks can yield significant returns over time.
-) Compounding Interest: Investing allows your money to work for you through the power of compound interest. When you invest, you not only earn a return on your initial investment, but also on any returns that investment generates. Over time, this can lead to exponential growth in your wealth.
-) Inflation Hedging: Investing can help protect your money from inflation. While the value of cash can be eroded by inflation over time, investments like stocks and real estate typically increase in value at a rate that outpaces inflation.
-) Wealth Creation: Numerous studies have shown that the wealthiest individuals and families often have substantial portions of their wealth invested. For example, a report from the Federal Reserve found that the top 10% of U.S. households by wealth held an average of nearly 90% of their wealth in investments as of 2019.
-) Retirement Savings: Investing is a key component of planning for retirement. Most retirement savings strategies, like 401(k) plans and individual retirement accounts (IRAs), involve investing in a mix of stocks, bonds, and other assets.
-While investing can offer substantial benefits, it's also important to note that all investments carry risk. The value of investments can go down as well as up, and it's possible to lose money. Therefore, it's important to thoroughly research any investment, diversify your portfolio, and consider seeking advice from a financial professional if you're unsure about where to start.
-In addition, while investing can be a powerful tool for wealth creation, it's not the only strategy. Other important aspects of personal finance, such as maintaining a budget, managing debt, and building an emergency fund, also play critical roles in financial health.</ref>, and Freetrade is a company that's on a mission to get everyone investing.<ref name=":8" />
-Assuming that Freetrade increases its share of the global brokerage market by 1,000x to 1% (from less than 0.0010%<ref>The annual global brokerage market right now (2023) is estimated at $1.30 trillion, and Freetrade generated around £12.68 million ($15.93 million) in revenue in its most recent full-year results</ref>) and other assumptions, the expected return of an investment in the company over the next five years is 202%, which equates to an annual return of 25%. In other words, an £1,000 investment in the company is expected to return £3,016 in five years time.
-The degree of risk associated with an investment in Freetrade is 'high', with the shares having an adjusted beta that is 85% above the market (1.85 vs. 1).<ref>Here, to estimate the adjusted beta, we used the iShares MSCI World ETF to represent the market portfolio; and in terms of the time period and frequency of observations, we used the seven available share price Freetrade data points. We note that the amount of available data observations for Freetrade is less than what's typically used in the five years of monthly data beta calculation (i.e. seven observations vs. 60 observations), and accordingly, calculating the beta of such a company has been considered by many to be abnormal; however, for the benefit of simplifying investment comparisons and decision making, we believe that a single standardised risk measure is useful, and that the most appropriate measure is beta.
-The beta value in a future period has been found to be on average closer to the mean value of 1.0, and because valuation is forward-looking, it is logical to adjust the raw beta so it more accurately predicts a future beta. In addition, here, we have assumed that for an investment to be considered 'high' risk, it must have a beta value of 1.5 or more. Further information about the beta ratings can be found in the appendix section of this report.</ref>
-Accordingly, based on the assumptions provided on the Stockhub platform, the investment is a 'suitable' one for you if, among other criteria, your required:
-* Return level is 25% per year or less in absolute terms;
-* Risk level is 85% or more above the market risk level;
-* Time horizon is five years or longer; and/or
-* Objective is to get everyone investing (i.e. you share in the mission of the Freetrade company).
-'''Fun fact:''' Freetrade Limited initially raised funds and gained traction through successful crowdfunding campaigns, reflecting its mission to democratise investing.

 A key way to determine a product's closest competitors is by looking at other offerings that are targeting the same or similar target audience (i.e. Active Investors) and aiming to provide the same core benefit (i.e. more money), and then ranking the offerings in terms of the total amount of time spent using and/or money spent purchasing the offerings relative to other similar offerings.

 == Risks ==
-As with any investment, investing in Freetrade carries a level of risk. Overall, based on the Freetrade's adjusted beta (i.e. 1.85)<ref>Research shows that an investment has two main types of risks: 1) non-systematic and 2) systematic. Systematic risk is the risk related to the overall market, and non-systematic risk is the risk that's specific to an individual investment. Evidence shows that taking on non-systematic risk is inefficient, and it's, therefore, best to eliminate it; and in most cases, elimination is fairy easy to do [by holding a diversified portfolio of investments (i.e. around 15 investments)]. Accordingly, when assessing the riskiness of an investment, it’s best to look at the systematic risk only (i.e. ignore the non-systematic risk). A key measure of systematic risk is beta, and a main way to determine the riskiness of an investment is to compare the beta of the investment with the beta of the market, which is 1. For example, Supply@ME Capital's adjusted beta (5 years, monthly data) is 4.61, and is, accordingly, 561% above the market beta (of 1); assuming that a 'high' level of riskiness is 50% or more above the market beta, then the riskiness of investing in Supply@ME Captial is considered to be 'high' (561%>50%). For estimating an asset's beta, in terms of time period, and frequency of observations, the most common choice is five years of monthly data, yielding 60 observations. One study of U.S. stocks found support for five years of monthly data over alternatives. An argument can be made that the 2 years, weekly data can be especially appropriate in fast growing markets. The beta value in a future period has been found to be on average closer to the mean value of 1.0, the beta of an average-systematic-risk security, than to the value of the raw beta. Because valuation is forward looking, it is logical to adjust the raw beta so it more accurately predicts a future beta.</ref>, the degree of risk associated with an investment in Freetrade is 'high'.
+As with any investment, investing in Freetrade carries a level of risk. Overall, based on the key risks highlighted below, the degree of risk associated with an investment in Freetrade is higher than in a company that's trading on a public market (such as Hargreaves Lansdown).
-Here, to estimate the adjusted beta, we used the iShares MSCI World ETF to represent the market portfolio; and in terms of the time period and frequency of observations, we used the seven available share price Freetrade data points. We note that the amount of available data observations for Freetrade is less than what's typically used in the five years of monthly data beta calculation (i.e. seven observations vs. 60 observations), and accordingly, calculating the beta of such a company has been considered by many to be abnormal; however, for the benefit of simplifying investment comparisons and decision making, we believe that a single standardised risk measure is useful, and that the most appropriate measure is beta.
-The beta value in a future period has been found to be on average closer to the mean value of 1.0, and because valuation is forward-looking, it is logical to adjust the raw beta so it more accurately predicts a future beta. In addition, here, we have assumed that for an investment to be considered 'high' risk, it must have a beta value of 1.5 or more. Further information about the beta ratings can be found in the appendix section of this report.
 === Early-stage investment ===
-Freetrade is at one of the earliest stages of the business lifecycle, and the failure rate of companies at that stage is usually much higher than those at a later stage. As of 2022, 57% of companies that are incorporated in the United Kingdom fail within the first five years of the companies incorporation, according to the Office for National Statistics.<ref>https://www.ons.gov.uk/businessindustryandtrade/business/activitysizeandlocation/bulletins/businessdemography/2020#the-south-west-continued-to-have-the-highest-five-year-survival-rate</ref> We note that Freetrade is more than seven years old.

 === Illiquid investment ===
-The number of transactions in shares of private companies is usually significantly lower than in public companies, typically resulting in it taking longer to sell shares in private companies at a price that is at least equal to the price that the shares were bought at. Accordingly, the Freetrade investment opportunity is considered to be higher risk than more liquid companies (such as Hargreaves Lansdown).

 |There are two key risk parameters for a firm that need to be estimated: its cost of equity and its cost of debt. A key way to estimate the cost of equity is by looking at the beta (or betas) of the company in question, the cost of debt from a measure of default risk (an actual or synthetic rating) and apply the market value weights for debt and equity to come up with the cost of capital.

+As of November 24th 2021, the company held a valuation of £658 million. However, it has since executed two funding rounds through debt financing instead of equity, which hints at a potential decrease in its valuation from the previous £658 million.

-=== Funding History<ref>https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/freetrade-limited</ref> ===
-As of November 24th 2021, the company held a valuation of £658 million. However, it has since executed two funding rounds through debt financing instead of equity, which hints at a potential decrease in its valuation from the previous £658 million. It has been reported by relatively reliable sources that the current valuation of the company is £225 million.<ref name=":9" /> <!-- The figures in the table below don't quite align with the figures in the financial statements of Crowdcube. I think the more accurate source is the financial statements, so I suggest going with the figures there. -->

-According to Crunchbase, Freetrade has raised a total of $135.5 million since the company's inception across 13 funding rounds.<ref>https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/freetrade-limited/company_financials</ref> However, that seems inaccurate when compared against the company's financial statements.

-|Consistent (monthly) intervals between data points
-|0.73
-|0.82
-|Here, when there is no valuation event, we have assumed that the share price is the same as the previous month, and, therefore, there has been no change in the share price. For example, there was no Freetrade valuation event in January 2022, so we have assumed that the valuation of Freetrade is the same in January 2022 as the previous month of December 2020 (at 9.25p), and, therefore, the share price change in January is 0%.
-|-
-|Inconsistent intervals between data points
-|2.28
-|1.85
-|Because there's only seven Freetrade valuation events, and, therefore, seven, available data points, calculating beta based on inconsistent intervals between data points seems to be the best approach.

-Freetrade was unsuccessful in its 'Freetrade' word application in the EU.<ref>https://www.trademarkelite.com/europe/trademark/trademark-detail/014989172/FREETRADE</ref> Does this mean that Freetrade has to pay the trademark holder a fee to use the 'Freetrade' word in the EU?
