Scribd Key Facts
• Scribd offers access to its content library across multiple devices and platforms, including smartphones, tablets, and desktop computers. Its mobile app and offline reading feature allow users to download content for offline access, providing flexibility and convenience for users.
• Launch of localized versions of Scribd in multiple languages, including Spanish, French, and German, allows the company to broaden its international user base and address cultural preferences.
• Introduction of Scribd Originals, exclusive content produced in-house, and partnerships with authors and publishers to offer unique reading experiences and original works, enhances Scribd's product line.
• Scribd offers free trials to attract new subscribers, but converting trial users into paying subscribers poses challenges. Low conversion rates or high churn rates among trial users could impact revenue growth and profitability metrics.
• Dependence on technological infrastructure for content delivery, platform stability, and user experience poses risks related to system outages, cybersecurity threats, and performance issues. Any disruptions in service or security breaches could lead to user dissatisfaction, brand damage, and potential legal liabilities.
• Acquiring rights to premium content from publishers and authors involves substantial costs and negotiations. Changes in content licensing agreements or the loss of key content providers could restrict Scribd's ability to offer popular titles and maintain its content library diversity.
Trading Scribd Stock
How to invest in Scribd stock?
Accredited investors can buy pre-IPO stock in companies like Scribd through EquityZen funds. These investments are made available by existing Scribd shareholders who sell their shares on our platform. Typically, these are early employees who need to fund a life event – house, education, etc. Accredited investors are then offered the opportunity to invest in this stock through a fund, like those used by hedge funds serving large investors. While not without risk, investing in private companies can help investors reach goals of portfolio diversification, access to potential growth and high potential return. Learn more about our Guided Investment process here.
How to sell Scribd stock?

If I invest, how do I exit my investment?
There are two ways to exit your private company investment on EquityZen's marketplace. The first is if the company has an exit event like an IPO, merger or acquisition. In that case, we will distribute the shares and/or cash to you directly. The second way is through an Express Deal on EquityZen, if eligible. An Express Deal allows you to sell your allocation of private shares in a given private company to another investor on EquityZen's marketplace. More information on Express Deals can be found here and exit information can be found here.
Why choose EquityZen?
Since 2013, the EquityZen marketplace has made it easy to buy and sell shares in private companies.
