The number of deals was 15 percent above the quarterly two-year average. Medical devices companies accounted for 50 percent of the entire capital raised by the life sciences in Q3/2017. Q3/2017 was the best quarter for communications companies since Q3/2016, with $277 million (19 percent) raised in 18 deals. This was mostly due to the exceptional $250 million late round by Via Transportation, which boosted the Q3/2017 results. Twenty-four Internet companies raised $172 million (12 percent) in Q3/2017. Internet applications led all Internet capital raising with 49 percent of total capital. The number of deals was close to the quarterly average of 2017.

Quarterly capital raising by stage Almost half (43 percent) of the total capital raised in Q3/2017 was invested in late stage companies, reaching a record of $618 million, compared with $425 million in Q2/2017 and $294 million in Q3/2016. The $250 million Via Transportation mega-deal significantly increased the share of this stage in Q3/2017. This also caused an upsurge in the average financing in late stage, which peaked at $33 million. Noticeably fewer deals were made in mid-stage companies 15 percent below the three-year quarterly average. At 30 percent, the share of capital raised by mid-stage companies was also down, below the four previous quarters. In Q3/2017, deals in early stage kept their pace, with the number of transactions (43) almost equal to the two-year quarterly average, and the share of total capital in this quarter remained at the average of 24 percent. Still, early stage attracted more capital - $352 million - compared with $238 million in Q3/2016. Seed companies capital raising showed poor results in Q3/2017, with both the number of deals (30) and the amount below the quarterly averages of the past five years. Seed stage, however, maintained the same 3 percent share of total capital raised as in Q3/2016. 800 726 618 700 534 425 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 296 328 480 517 426 349 478 374 468 406 407 391 352 408 309 294 264 376 321 233 312 428 238 199 304 319 266 241 65 43 211 42 35 90 70 41 27 88 2017/1 2017/22017/3 2016/4 59 43 2016/3 2016/2 2016/1 2015/4 2015/3 Source: IVC-ZAG Survey Q3/2017 2015/2 2015/1 2015/1 2015/2 2015/3 2015/4 2016/1 2016/2 2016/3 2016/4 2017/1 2017/2 2017/3 Seed 59 43 88 90 70 41 27 42 35 65 43 R&D 319 211 266 241 312 428 238 264 199 309 352 Initial Revenues 328 408 376 391 407 517 374 534 478 468 426 Revenue Growth 296 480 304 406 321 726 294 233 349 425 618 @ ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
