Cap Table

What is a Cap Table?

A capitalisation table (cap table) is a record showing all company securities — shares, options, warrants — and who owns them.

Think of it like this…

It’s the master spreadsheet of ownership.

Why does it matter?

  • Essential for fundraising, exits, and ownership clarity
  • Tracks dilution when new shares are issued
  • Helps avoid disputes over ownership percentages

Best practice

Keep your cap table updated whenever ownership changes occur.
