Morningstar PitchBook US Unicorn 100

What this index holds, how it is built, and what its record does not cover. Morningstar Indexes, built with PitchBook.

What it tracks

The Morningstar PitchBook US Unicorn 100 Index tracks the largest privately held, late-stage venture capital-backed US companies with post-money valuations of at least $1 billion. Index constituents are derived from PitchBook’s database of venture capital-backed companies, and the index methodology employs a proprietary three-factor pricing model to estimate daily valuations. The indexes deliver timely insights and unprecedented transparency into the performance and behavior of the 100 largest US unicorns.

The hundred largest US unicorns. The broadest of these indexes for a US reader, and the one whose constituents overlap most with the companies PrePost already values.

Run by Morningstar Indexes, built with PitchBook. PrePost has no relationship with the provider and is not paid to list this index.

Read this first

Most of the record is backfilled

The index began on 2022-10-18. Its performance record starts 2014-06-20, so the years before 2022-10-18 are backfilled rather than live. A long-run return quoted for this index is mostly a backtest.

Private marks can be stale

The provider's own reporting notes that where transactions are infrequent, secondary-market marks can stay unchanged even as new information emerges.

Verified means a full PrePost profile with sourced figures. Listed means the company is named here because a benchmark we track names it; PrePost has published no figure for it and does not rank it. Public means it has left the private market and can be bought through any broker.

This company now trades on a public exchange. The index provider still lists it here, and its own indexes disagree about which side of the line it falls on. PrePost has taken it from SEC filings: funds on this site report it with a CUSIP, an ISIN and a quoted market price, none of which a private holding has.

The index provider lists this constituent only as “Figure”, with no identifier of any kind. PrePost has identified it as Figure AI on four grounds: the index selects the largest and most liquid unicorns; no separate Figure AI entry appears in any index we track; the other well-known company of that name, Figure Technologies, is an order of magnitude too small to qualify; and the two SEC-filing funds on this site that hold it, which must name portfolio companies precisely, both report it as “Figure AI, Inc.”. The provider has not confirmed this, and we have asked.

Vehicles that track it

None that PrePost tracks. That does not mean none exists: a product can track an index without PrePost having verified it, and PrePost lists a vehicle only once it can source what the vehicle is and what it holds.
