The venture firms drove a hard bargain — the debt would convert to Robinhood shares at 70% of the company’s offering price when it went public.\nWhile triple-digit returns aren’t unheard of in venture capital, rarely do they come this quickly. According to Bloomberg calculations, the firms who stepped up in February are already sitting on $5.4 billion in gains.\nSome of those investors now have the option to cash out, according to a regulatory filing on Thursday, a move that pushed down Robinhood’s shares by 13% after they doubled earlier this week.\nNora Chan, a spokeswoman for Robinhood, declined to comment.\nThe debt converted to Robinhood shares at a price of $26.60. The stock is currently trading at $61.30.\nThe rescue financing was split into two tranches of $2.5 billion and $1 billion. Investors in the larger portion also received warrants equal to 15% of the amount they invested, and the debt accrued interest at 6%.\nThe Thursday filing allows for holders of the first tranche of convertible debt — now equivalent to almost 98 million shares — to sell 50% of their shares. The remaining 50% must be held until Aug. 25. The largest of those holders, New Enterprise Associates, may trim its roughly 10% stake by about 3.9% or 2.9 million shares. Other possible sellers include entities affiliated with Amplo and Andreessen Horowitz.\nWhile that pushed the stock lower, the investors are still sitting on gains in excess of 150%.\nThe 39 million shares associated with the second tranche of convertible debt aren’t included in Thursday’s filing.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"}],"isCommentEnd":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":72,"commentSize":13,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":false,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.28.1","shortVersion":"4.28.1","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"laohu8","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/1186373801"}
