Pedro Fiúza | Nurphoto | Getty ImagesStock trading platform eToro agreed to a $120 million secondary share sale, giving the company a slightly lower valuation than the $3.5 billion it was valued at in a primary funding round earlier this year. The round is a secondary share sale, meaning the company hasn't issued any new shares and won't net any income from the transaction. eToro is not raising money — rather it is a moment for some long standing shareholders and employees to take some liquidity. EToro most recently raised $250 million from investors at a $3.5 billion valuation, far lower than the $10 billion it was seeking in its bid to float via SPAC. EToro agreed it would convert the investment to equity on the condition that the SPAC deal doesn't go ahead — which it didn't.
