Preferred Stock - Liquidation Preference

The video tutorial explains liquidation preference, a right for preferred shareholders to receive payment before others during a company's liquidation. It provides an example where an investor with a $100 investment and a liquidation preference of three receives $300 before others. The tutorial also covers participation rights, allowing investors to receive a percentage of remaining proceeds. These concepts are common in startup financing, where investors seek convertible shares with liquidation preferences and participation rights.
