Data Quality
Data: HighDo not accept this offer for its equity component — Height shut down in September 2025 and is already out of business as of May 2026.
Last updated: May 5, 2026
In a highly unlikely late-stage acqui-hire or IP acquisition, a buyer pays nominal proceeds (~$5-10M) for talent or patents. After the $18.3M liquidation preference waterfall is satisfied, common stockholders receive $0 or a negligible token distribution — a ~85% effective loss on any grant-date equity value.
Height completed its planned wind-down with a final service date of September 24, 2025 (now past). Remaining assets are liquidated for minimal proceeds and the $18.3M in preferred liquidation preferences consume everything, leaving common equity at exactly $0.
The company has already shut down as of September 2025 with no reported acquisition; PitchBook lists it as 'Out of Business' with a $0 valuation. Common stockholders receive $0 — equity is confirmed worthless with no recovery path.
Preference Stack Risk
severeFunding Intensity
999900%Total funding of $18.3M in liquidation preferences sits against a $0 current valuation, meaning preferred shareholders absorb 100% of any proceeds and common equity holders receive nothing.
Dilution Risk
highWith only 14 employees at wind-down and no future funding possible, the option pool is fully underwater with zero prospect of recovery.
Secondary Liquidity
noneNo secondary market exists for equity in a company that has already ceased operations and is classified as out of business by PitchBook.
Questions to Ask at the Interview
Strategic questions based on Height's data — designed to show you've done your homework.
- 1
“Has the company formally completed its legal wind-down, and what is the current corporate status — are there any active acquirer discussions underway?”
- 2
“Is any portion of the compensation package structured as a cash retention bonus rather than equity, given the equity carries no recoverable value?”
- 3
“What obligations (if any) does the company have to employees regarding WARN Act notice, severance, or accelerated vesting during the wind-down?”
