## About the company

infinitSpace creates and operates white-label flexible workspace offerings for landlords and corporate occupiers. It provides utilization technology, a booking and community app, curated services, and on-site operations while the asset owner retains its brand, capex control, and tenant contracts.

The company charges a one-time setup fee of up to €61,000 per building and receives 20% of flexspace revenue once locations are operational. At the deck date it was pre-revenue but had grown its pipeline beyond 100,000 square meters, demonstrating the commercial focus on signed space rather than leased inventory.

The model is a building roll-up. Buildings signed, average square meters, launch timing, occupancy, membership revenue per square meter, and booking upsells determine gross flex revenue, of which infinitSpace receives 20%. Setup fees, implementation cost, community staffing, and pipeline conversion show the route to recurring commission ARR.

## What's included

- 5-year monthly revenue build with stage-appropriate growth assumptions
- Full P&L, headcount plan, and operating-expense schedule
- Cash-flow statement, runway, and burn-rate tracking
- Valuation via exit multiple with a DCF cross-check
- Returns analysis with MOIC and IRR
- Unit economics including CAC, LTV, payback, and cohort retention

## Product & value proposition

- White-label flexible workspace brand built and operated by infinitSpace on behalf of the landlord or corporate.
- Four-pillar service offering: Tech (space utilisation sensors/data), Software (premium white-label flexspace-as-a-service booking/community app), Services (curated F&B, events, partnerships), Community (on-site community managers).
- Landlord retains brand control, CAPEX control, and contract relationships with tenants - infinitSpace is invisible operator.
- All tenants in the building (coworking and traditional) are connected via the software platform, enabling upsell of hourly/daily desk and meeting-room bookings to traditional lease tenants.
- White-label brands join infinitSpace's global booking network.
- Three deployment models supported: Reverse Flex, HQ & Flex, Hub & Spoke.

## Market

- European total office market: 372 million sqm (stable, 2020–2030).
- European flexible office market 2020: ~15M sqm (~4% of total).
- European flexible office market 2025: ~41M sqm (~9% of total).

## Revenue model

Two revenue streams:

1. **Setup fee**: Up to EUR 61,000 per building (one-time, paid by landlord for brand conceptualisation and fit-out development by infinitSpace).
2. **Commission**: 20% of all flexspace revenue generated at the building, ongoing.

Underlying economics:
- Members (tenants) pay a monthly membership fee of ~2.2x the market rental price per sqm - standard flexspace pricing; profitable at >70% occupancy.
- infinitSpace takes 20% of that gross member revenue; landlord retains 80%.
- Additional upsell revenue from hourly/daily bookings by traditional tenants (commission also applies).
- Software license revenue to corporates and flex operators mentioned as future/additional stream - no pricing given.

Projected ARR (commission revenue, 20% take):
| Year | sqm under management | ARR (EUR) |
| ----- | --------------------- | ---------- |
| 2021 | 36K | 1.5M |
| 2022 | 72K | 7.7M |
| 2023 | 144K | 19.5M |
| 2024 | 288K | 41.9M |
| 2025 | 576K | 86.3M |

## Competition / moat

Three-way comparison presented:

|  | Operators (e.g. WeWork, Mindspace) | Landlord self-operated | infinitSpace |
| -- | -- | -- | -- |
| Brand | Operator's brand | Landlord's brand | Landlord's brand |
| Revenue | Operator keeps it | 100% to landlord | 80% to landlord |
| Tenant contract | With operator | With landlord | With landlord |
| Asset impact | Negative (sub-lease) | Neutral | Neutral |
| CAPEX control | Operator controls | Landlord controls | Landlord controls |
| Expertise | Yes | No | Yes |
| Marketing/sales | No | No | Yes (dedicated team) |
| Suitability | Prime only | All locations | All locations |

Moat claims:
- Holistic "whole asset" approach vs. operator carve-out model.
- White-label flexibility vs. operator brand lock-in.
- Global booking network across white-label brands.
- Founders' ex-WeWork and ex-Mindspace networks and operational playbooks.

## Recommended financial model

**Archetype + why**: Management-fee / commission-revenue model (analogous to a franchise or property management fee model). infinitSpace earns a one-time setup fee per building plus a 20% ongoing commission on gross flex revenue - not a SaaS ARR business and not a lease-based P&L. The correct archetype is a **building roll-up commission P&L**: sqm under management drives gross member revenue, of which 20% flows to infinitSpace. Secondary stream is setup fees per new building signed.

**Forecast horizon & granularity**: Monthly for Years 1–2 (2021–2022); quarterly for Years 3–5 (2023–2025). Five-year horizon matches deck projections.

**Key drivers & assumptions**:

*Volume / growth*
- Buildings signed per period
- Average building size (sqm)
- Ramp time from signed LOI to operational (months)
- Occupancy ramp post-opening
- Steady-state occupancy assumption
- Member churn / turnover rate

*Pricing*
- Gross member revenue per sqm per month
- Setup fee per building

*Revenue*
- Commission revenue = occupied sqm × gross member rate × 20%
- Setup fee revenue = new buildings signed × avg setup fee
- Software license revenue

*Costs*
- Community manager headcount per building
- Central overhead (sales, tech, marketing)
- Tech/software development capex
- Partner/vendor costs (cleaning, F&B, ICT)

**Scenarios (Base / Bull / Bear - which variables flex)**:
- **Base**: sqm trajectory per deck (36K→576K), 80% occupancy, EUR 50K setup fee, EUR 88/sqm gross member rate.
- **Bull**: Faster ramp (144K sqm by 2022), higher occupancy (90%), EUR 60K setup fee, EUR 95/sqm rate in stronger markets.
- **Bear**: Half the deck sqm (36K→72K→144K by 2025), 70% occupancy, EUR 40K setup fee - tests whether the model is viable with slower landlord adoption.
- Key flex variables: sqm under management, occupancy rate, gross member rate per sqm, and ramp speed.

**Required sheets / outputs**:
1. **Assumptions** - all drivers with toggles for Base/Bull/Bear.
2. **Building Roll-up** - one row per building cohort (signed quarter, sqm, ramp occupancy curve, monthly gross revenue, commission to infinitSpace, setup fee timing).
3. **P&L** - revenue (commission + setup fees), headcount costs, overhead, EBITDA, net income.
4. **Headcount plan** - community managers (per-building) + central team scaling.
5. **Cash flow** - burn rate, Series-A timing, runway.
6. **Market size** - static reference for sqm projections vs. European flex market targets.
7. **Dashboard** - ARR by year, sqm under management, buildings live, EBITDA margin, cash runway, occupancy heatmap.
