Basepaws Shark Tank Pitch

Anna Skaya appeared on Shark Tank Season 10, Episode 21, which aired on April 28, 2019, with at-home pet DNA test kits for cats.

Basepaws is listed in the PetProducts category. In plain terms, the business is described as at-home pet DNA test kits for cats.

Basepaws asked the Sharks for $250,000 for 5%, implying a valuation of about $5 million.

On the show, Basepaws made a listed deal with Kevin O'Leary and Robert Herjavec for $250,000 for 10%.

If treated as straight equity, the listed deal works out to about $2.5 million implied valuation, down from the original $5 million implied valuation.

This pitch is included as context for the more important question: what happened after Shark Tank.
