Treats customer acquisition expenses as predictable, asset-like investments, funding them through structured, revenue-based financing separate from equity.
The CVF Fund is a specialised financing entity designed for Series A and Series B startups. We provide non-collateralised financing. We focus specifically on optimising customer acquisition spending by treating Customer Acquisition Costs (CAC) as capital expenditures (CapEx), rather than operating expenses. The Fund introduces a financial metric called EBITCAC (EBITDA plus CAC), providing clearer visibility into true profitability and growth potential.
