Jeff and Stacey Grace own five percent of the company
Jeff and Stacy Grace enter the tank demanding $200,000 in exchange for five percent of their company. Kent, manufacturer of the world’s first compostable underwear. When their time is up, you can literally put on your pants. They’re on pace to make $500,000 this year, but they’ve valued the company at $4 million ouch. Not in their favor either: A pair of their eco-friendly skivvies cost between $20-24. Which is more than the average American. Wow, Robert goes with Barbara, and he offered $600,000 for 10 percent.
Robert then goes to the studio audience to show his hand
Mark tapped out, followed by Daymond. Barbara offered him $200,000 for 20 percent. But this significantly undermines their valuation. Robert then goes to the audience in the studio to show his hand. To see how often the average American buys new underwear. ABC then opens the poll for viewers at home to weigh in during the commercial break. After seeing the results, Robert makes an offer to the couple: $200,000 for 15 percent. Lori matches that offer, then Daymond jumps back. The same offer came in the hopes of partnering with Jeff and Stacey Daymond, so they accepted his deal.
Then Barbara comes up with a proposal of her own.
Cena and Nina Farzin enter the tank demanding $400,000 for five percent of their company. OgiBear is a product line that helps babies and parents breathe more easily. It’s an $8 million valuation, but they have sales to back it. Since 2015, he has earned over $15 million. This year alone, they’re on track to do $5.4 million in sales — and $1 million in profits. They raise the equity to 12 percent. Then Barbara comes up with a proposal of her own. $400,000 for 10 percent – and if she can’t bring her sales to $400 million in two years, she’ll give them half her stock back.
Kevin cuts Nina to make a deal
Kevin cuts to Nina to make the deal. Believe it or not, he says, his portfolio doesn’t have a nose pick. Therefore, he offers them $400,000… for 10 percent of the company. Daymond taps, then Lori jumps in. But before he makes an offer to them, we have our second audience survey. Do you find it difficult to choose a baby booger? The results apparently don’t have any real effect on Lori’s decision. Joe comes up with an offer: $400,000 for 10% but she wants Mark to go with her.
