🏢 Company description
DendroPharm GmbH (Berlin; HRB 151543 B) is a pharmaceutical R&D and contract-manufacturing company developing a nano-carrier platform branded “NanoPain™” / “NanoOpiate.” The company reports the carrier is too large to cross the blood-brain barrier, so it delivers an already-approved opioid to inflamed or post-operative tissue rather than the brain, aiming to relieve pain without the addiction and respiratory-depression risks of conventional opioids; the intravenous candidate is “DENA-19.” Founded in 2013 as a spin-off from Freie Universität Berlin (the project team reports it “took over the project in 2017”), it is led by founder/CEO Dr. Sam Dylan Moré, who holds 56.39% of the equity. The company reports a 12-person specialist team across more than 650 sqm including 300 sqm of cleanrooms and 5 analytical laboratories, ISO 9001 certification since 2015, GMP certification in 2022 (LaGeSo), and a completed manufacturing-authorisation inspection in September 2025. Current revenue is project/CDMO-based (the company reports ~EUR 600,000 of 2026 customer inquiries) alongside a veterinary cat-ointment out-licensed in 2021 and expected to be approved in 2026. This round — a profit-participating subordinated loan with an EUR 100,000 threshold and EUR 1,000,000 maximum — is earmarked to fund the first human clinical trial (Phase I) and to advance out-licensing of the Nano-Pain technology. The company separately plans a EUR 3–6m venture-capital equity round to enable Phase II in 2027.

🎯 6.80–8.16x |
⏱ ~5 yrs (to 30.04.2031) |
Company-provided — the company states 48% (base) to 52% (target) IRR per year over a 5-year period, i.e. 6.80x–8.16x. |
Plausible only on a successful out-licensing exit; under the VIB’s neutral/negative cases the multiple is not achieved and capital loss is possible. |
📈 Path to target return
|
Company methodology |
Returns are success-based, not contractual. During the term the investor earns an annual ‘success interest’ equal to their participation quota × the company’s prior-year net profit; at the end of term a ‘bonus interest’ based on company value (or, absent a recent financing round, 100% of last-year revenue); and, on a sale of >50% of shares/assets, an ‘exit interest’ (a pro-rata share of net proceeds) plus principal back. The 48–52% IRR / 6.8–8.16x figures are the company’s modelled outputs assuming positive growth and a successful out-licensing exit. |
|
Comparable exits cited |
Not disclosed in provided materials. The company estimates lifetime out-licensing revenue of EUR 1.2–1.8bn over the patent term (company-stated, unverified), with 20–30% within the first four years. |

💶 Valuation
|
Pre-money valuation |
EUR 10.0m (set by the issuer, before the campaign). |
|
Post-money valuation |
EUR 11.0m implied at the EUR 1.0m maximum raise (derived). |
|
Instrument |
Partiarisches Nachrangdarlehen — a profit-participating subordinated loan. This is NOT equity: the investor receives no shares and no ownership. |
|
How the valuation was set |
Methodology not disclosed in provided materials — the EUR 10m figure is stated as issuer-determined, with no DCF or comparables basis provided. |
|
External benchmarks |
Insufficient comparables for this sector and stage; no third-party valuation was found in public sources. The asset is pre-Phase-I, so the figure is forward-looking on out-licensing potential. |
|
Notable terms |
A ~10% valuation bonus applies to investors within 31 days of public presentation (EUR 100 → 0.001000% participation quota vs 0.000909% standard). Issuer-borne costs total 15% of amounts raised (FunderNation 6%, pooling ~6%, marketing up to 3%). |
📜 Instrument & investor terms
What you own
You own a profit-participating subordinated loan (German: partiarisches Nachrangdarlehen), not shares. There is no share class because this is debt, not equity — you become a lender to the company, not a co-owner, and you do not appear on the company’s cap table. The loan is made directly to DendroPharm (not through a nominee or SPV), but a separate pooling agreement via FunderNation Support UG provides a collective coordination procedure (for example, to negotiate a whole-loan buy-…
