The Halo Report is a nationwide survey of Angel Groups' investment activity produced by the Angel Resource Institute, Silicon Valley Bank and CB Insights. The Q2 2014 Halo Report finds angel group valuations continue a three-quarter climb and round sizes increased by $1 million for healthcare companies while dropping by $1 million for Internet companies. Round sizes overall dropped nearly 40% to $600K over the prior quarter when angel groups invested alone, but rose nearly 20% to $2 million when angels co-invested with other types of investors. Texas joined California and New England as the three most active regions for angel group deals.

This report discusses angel group investment trends for Q2 2014, which represents a total of 206 deals and $594M in total rounds including co-investors.
A few charts report on an “Angel Round,” a special classification of investment when angel groups invest alone or just with other angels and angel groups.
