Shares of the Index are priced daily and are available for purchase by accredited investors and equivalent entities outside the United States.

Early Performance While venture investing requires a long-term view, preliminary results are promising. As of May 2025, the SignalRank Index reports: 2023 cohort: 1.26x multiple on invested capital (MOIC) 2024 cohort: 1.2x MOIC These early returns place the Index in the top decile of performance among comparable venture investments. “We’re encouraged by the growth of our partner network—now nearing 300 early-stage firms,” said Rob Hodgkinson , Head of Investments at SignalRank. “The quality of both deal selection and access continues to improve, helping us deliver a compelling investment product while supporting our partners at a critical stage of company growth” Details are available in the SignalRank Index Two-Year Briefing Report. Launch of v4: Ensemble-Based Investment Selection Model SignalRank also announced the release of v4 , its most advanced company selection model to date. The v4 model combines heuristic and machine learning techniques in an ensemble architecture to identify high-potential Series B investments. Backtesting indicates that v4 can: Reject up to 87% of Series B opportunities as unlikely to perform Generate a projected average 6x return over five years for annual investment cohorts Keith Teare, CEO and CTO, said: “This is the first time we’ve blended heuristics with machine learning into a true ensemble model. The backtest shows performance that exceeds that of any known Series B investor over a five-year horizon. For our partners, it’s a decision support engine; for Index investors, it signals potential returns far ahead of public market benchmarks.” The full v4 Technical Report is available here: v4 detailed report.

A back test is not the same as a promise of market performance and cannot be relied upon for that. Please consult your advisors to consider an investment. Investments in early-stage companies are risky and should be made only by accredited investors after seeking independent professional advice. Any future plans of the Company depends on the satisfaction of a variety of conditions, including, but not limited to, market conditions, regulatory approvals, and the company’s performance at the time. Past performance—including actual or backtested—is not indicative of future results. Signal Rank Corp. is not a registered investment company or advisor under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Our algorithm identifies potential Series B investment opportunities based on historical data which may or may not be complete and does not guarantee any future results. Our portfolio companies are generally private, which means that they do not trade like public securities and may be illiquid and difficult to sell, rending our own securities illiquid and difficult to sell as well. Our securities might be sold at a discount due to their illiquid nature, causing all or part of investments to be lost.
