Portfolio wind downs, handled.

Get started

When a portfolio company reaches the end of the line, Starcycle runs the entire shutdown: dissolution and IRS filings, franchise taxes, payroll, contracts, and records. Your team keeps the decisions. We do the work.

A wind down is a cost center nobody is watching.

At most funds, closing a portfolio company falls to someone on the ops team. They end up project managing a lawyer who doesn’t want the work and an accountant who is already busy. It drags on for months while the entity keeps accruing franchise tax and registered agent fees.

Most states assess franchise tax by calendar year, so an entity still active on January 1 owes for another full year. And even when a fund runs a formal process like an ABC, it is slow and expensive, and equipment, IP, prepaid contracts and remaining cash tend to get written down because nobody has the time to run a real recovery.

From the dissolution filing to the last IRS form.
