Also, reputable VC-backed firms perform better than average VC-backed ones…mehr

This paper examines the effect of Venture Capital (VC) reputation on the three year aftermarket performance of its invested IPO firms. A sample of 3,220 U.S. Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) firms for the 1990-2005 period is used to test the hypotheses. To measure the VC reputation effect, I use two proxies which are: number of companies taken public by the VC and the age of the VC. The findings of the paper show that VC-backed firms perform better than non VC-backed firms in the first, second and third year of issuance. Also, reputable VC-backed firms perform better than average VC-backed ones in the second and third year of issuance. The findings confirm the VC effect and the VC reputation effect on the long run after market performance of IPO firms.
