Ownership breakdown
Blocking minority · Veto rightsImplied valuation math
Paying $3,500 for 40% values the whole business at $8,750. That is roughly $88 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 40% 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 to fund the second campus build-out.

Information
No ongoing reporting obligations to the seller after closing.
Consent
