Dilution is devaluation of shares as a result of emitting new shares to raise money:

As an example imaging the following start situation: Round A Share price \$1,00

# Shares Percentage of total
VC 4.000.000 38,1%
Total 10.500.000

Scenario: "Company does well": Round B Share price \$5,00 Money to be raised \$20.000.000 Shares to add to pool 4.000.000

# Shares Percentage of total Value of shares
VC 4.000.000 27,6% \$20.000.000,00
Total shares 10.500.000
New shares 4.000.000
New total 14.500.000

In this scenario there is some dilution but it is 'profitable'. The VC will be happy.

Scenario: "Company does bad": Round B' Share price \$0,10 Money to be raised \$20.000.000 Shares to add to pool 200.000.000

# Shares Percentage of total Value of shares
VC 4.000.000 1,9% \$400.000,00
Total shares 10.500.000
New shares 200.000.000
New total 210.500.000

In this scenario there is huge dilution and not profitable. VC will be unhappy.
