It sells Monipa, a compact mid-infrared (MIR) spectroscopy instrument that monitors biopharmaceutical manufacturing in real time, using a patented single-use “flow cell” (the disposable part that touches the process fluid) to avoid cleaning and cross-contamination. The company reports that real-time monitoring helps drugmakers avoid losing entire production batches worth millions and shortens development timelines. As of the materials, the company reports 20 Monipa units in customer use, a published AGC Biologics case study, and more than €6m raised to date from HTGF, Verve Ventures, Ventura BioMed, EIC and BioProcess360. The business model combines one-off hardware sales (~€75k–100k per unit) with recurring consumables (~€8k/yr per unit) and software (up to ~€10k/yr). Matthias Eggers, who previously led m2p-labs to a Beckman Coulter acquisition, joined as CEO in mid-2025 to drive international scale-up. The company reports the round will fund US/Asia sales expansion and close a roughly €1.7m annual funding gap.</span></span></p> <h2><span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">💶 Valuation</span></span></h2> <table cellspacing="0" class="Table" style="border-collapse:collapse;

You buy a profit participation certificate (a Genussrecht — a contractual right to a share of profits and exit proceeds, not a shareholding) issued by a special-purpose vehicle (SPV), Companisto Trust Service LXIV UG in Frankfurt. That SPV owns Series A preferred shares in IRUBIS; you own a certificate over the SPV. This means there are two layers between you and the company. You have no voting rights in IRUBIS and no shareholder/membership rights; the SPV votes its shares as a single pooled block based on a prior online vote of certificate-holders, and most exit decisions are made at the shareholder level where you are not present. Certificate-holders have only narrow consent rights (for example, a sale of the SPV’s IRUBIS stake needs 75% of certificate votes).</span></span></p> <h3><span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Dilution and future rounds</span></span></h3> <p><span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">This round is itself the Series A, and the company has authorised capital allowing it to issue further Series A preferred shares to new or existing investors. Crowdfund investors have no direct anti-dilution protection: the weighted-average anti-dilution clause in the shareholders’ agreement protects Series A holders (and so the SPV) only, and only in a down-round. “Dilution” simply means your slice of the company shrinks when new shares are issued.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Worked example (standard cap-table mechanics, not advice). If you invest €1,000 today at the ~€14.8M post-money valuation, you own approximately 0.0068% of the company on paper (and note ~€200 of your €1,000 is consumed by fees before it is even invested). If the company then raises €5M at a €30M pre-money valuation — a successful up-round — your stake is diluted to approximately 0.0058%, but the implied value of your holding rises to roughly €2,030 because the company is worth more. If instead the next round is a down-round at €9M pre-money, your stake is diluted to approximately 0.0043% and the implied value of your €1,000 falls to roughly €610, a drop of about 39%.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">A virtual employee option pool (VSOP) of up to ~10% of share capital exists and dilutes all shareholders as it is granted (the cap table shows it at ~3.28% today, with room to grow). You have no direct pre-emption right — the contractual right to put more money into a future round to defend your percentage sits with the SPV, not with you individually — so you cannot easily protect your stake from dilution.</span></span></p> <h3><span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Exit and liquidation mechanics</span></span></h3> <p><span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">If IRUBIS is sold or wound down, payouts at the company level follow a stacked 1x non-participating liquidation preference: Series A preferred is repaid first, then Seed preferred, then common (founder) shares share the rest pro-rata (“non-participating” means a preference-holder takes either its 1x money back or its pro-rata share, not both). You sit behind this stack, reached only through the SPV’s Series A position. More importantly, your certificate is deeply subordinated: its claims rank behind all other (non-subordinated) creditors of the SPV and cannot be enforced if doing so would push the SPV into insolvency — the document itself states your risk may exceed that of a shareholder, and total loss is possible.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">A drag-along right (shareholders’ agreement §9) lets a qualified majority including the investor majority force every shareholder to sell on the same terms — so a sale can happen without your consent, and the SPV can be dragged along with you inside it. A tag-along right (§8) is the mirror protection: if a major holder sells, others can join the sale on the same terms, with stronger protection if the buyer is a competitor or would cross 50% ownership.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Treat this as a long-term, illiquid investment. There is no ordinary right to exit before the end of financial year 2041, and even then only if holders of at least 25% of certificate capital terminate unanimously. Certificates are technically transferable via Clearstream, but no Companisto secondary market is described — so realistically your money is locked until a strategic sale of IRUBIS occurs.</span></span></p> <h3><span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Key risks specific to this instrument</span></span></h3> <ul> <li><span style="font-size:10pt"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">No voting rights and a pooled SPV structure — you cannot influence company decisions, including the decision to sell;
