Ownership breakdown
Blocking minority · Veto rightsImplied valuation math
Paying $96,000 for 45% values the whole business at $213,333. That is roughly $2,133 per percentage point of ownership.
What this stake conveys
Above one third you generally hold blocking power over supermajority actions — recapitalizations, sale of the company, and charter changes — without day-to-day control.
Verified before listing
The founder attested to owning at least 45% and uploaded ownership evidence (cap table, operating agreement, or equivalent). Timber reviews entity standing and authority to sell before a listing goes live. Stake sale with a path to control at 24 months.

Consent
