4 Tear Sheet Examples to Give You Inspiration for Your Next LP Report

Belle Raab

Tear Sheets (also known as one-pagers or fact sheets) are an effective way to communicate the performance of your portfolio on an individual company level. In Venture Capital, tear sheets are commonly shared with Limited Partners (LPs) on a monthly or quarterly basis to keep investors updated on company performance.

Common Tear Sheet Elements

Some common elements that should be included in tear sheets are:

  • Investment performance – Cost, value, board information
  • Financial metrics – Revenue, Cash Balance, Burn Rate, Runway
  • Company-specific KPIs – Keep this consistent for each reporting cycle.
  • Commentary – Add your own analysis on company metrics and performance.
  • Company context – Include details such as the company description, sector, HQ location for context.
