DCF valuation results into post-money or pre-money valuation?

Business plan involves future revenues which are already based on investment from investors, so valuation based on DCF should be post-money valuation? I am confused because usually if you perform valuation before investment it is pre-money valuation and than plus investment results to post-money valuation.
