FAQ:
- Q: I'm intrigued by the growth and interest in African sourced spirits, but my concern is the terms of the investment. You're offering an uncapped SAFE (often an automatic no for early investors), but the investment concept is to get in early before the 2025/26 Series A priced ro...
  A: Hi Jason, Hope you are well, Thank you for reaching out. Our ambition/goal is to close a series A within 18 months and we have started conversations with potential series A investors. This was part of the reason we did not include a valuation cap. Our current plan is to close a Series A with a $4m investment at a $18m post money valuation. We also know that Africa is becoming a strategic focus for big Alc Bev companies, and we know that the big companies typically grow via acquistion. We beli...
- Q: Can you share your thoughts on how often you will update us on how things are progressing with your goals and business plan? Secondly, do you intend to file the annual report with the SEC? Thanks for your feedback
  A: Hi Karolina, hope you are well and thanks for the questions. As with our current investors, we plan to provide a monthly update, sharing our fantastic progress, news and updates with our amazing wefunder community. Regarding the annual report for the SEC, as we are a US company we will comply with all SEC requirements, including filing the annual report. I hope this answers your questions. Please let me know if you need any further information. Many thanks Chris
- Q: Amazing investment opportunity , glad to see an African based alcohol brand step up in a major way such as Spearhead . My inquiries include : 1) investing in Spearhead does that give the investors an ownership stake in all the brands ? Gin , vodka , agave & the whiskey ? 2...
  A: Thanks for your question Gregory, they are great. 1. An investment in Spearhead Spirits, is an investment in all the brands in our portfolio. Therefore investors will benefit from the growth of each brand, not just one. 2. In general, SAFE investments see a return on investment when a liquidity event occurs, such as: Equity conversion at a priced round. ROI is realised if the shares appreciate in value and can be sold at a later date. Company acquisition (M&A) If the company is acquired t...
- Q: As far as sourcing goes (for the African grown ingredients). Geographically speaking, which countries are involved with providing the agriculture? I see it's distilled in South Africa.
  A: Hi Kyle, great question. Whilst we distill in South Africa, Spearhead is a Pan African business, sourcing ingredients for our brands from across the continent. For example our gin sources botanicals from 6 different African countries, from Baobab fruit from Ghana, course salt from Botswana, juniper from Kenya and many more. On the other hand our agave brand sources wild agave from South Africa’s Karoo desert and the Eastern Cape, we have also experimented with agave from further afield. As an...
- Q: Good day , does Spearhead truly have plans in the timeline for a Merge / Acquisition? OR does it plan to maintain its original owners and keep the core ownership together indefinitely to be honest ? Maintaining its grassroots persona What is the current Company Valuation ? In ...
  A: Hi Gregory, great questions, thank you. Our ambition is to grow Spearhead into a business that has the opportunity for a capital event, in which investors are able to realise their investment. Although we are very bullish on the future of Spearhead Spirits. It’s important to note that while an investment in the early stages of Spearhead's growth, none of the potential outcomes—such as equity conversion, acquisition, or an IPO—are guaranteed. These agreements are inherently speculative, as the...
