Data: Low

Assuming a $50M current fair value, Apheris offers a base-case ~86% 2-year equity upside, but carries high risk from a severe preferred overhang and likely dilutive fundraise.

Last updated: August 4, 2026

Bull (30%)+190%

If Apheris becomes the clear category leader in life-sciences federated learning and rides an IPO window, the forward revenue multiple could hold at ~12x. On $12.9M projected revenue that implies a ~$155M exit, delivering ~+190% net of expected 20% dilution.

Base (45%)+86%

With steady enterprise adoption and convergence toward public software comps, a ~8x forward revenue multiple on $12.9M projected revenue gives a ~$103M exit. Net of 20% dilution, common stock upside is ~+86%.

Bear (25%)-43%

If growth slows or competition from big tech compresses the multiple to ~3x, the exit would be ~$39M, barely above the $20.8M preferred liquidation. After dilution, common stock loses ~43% of its value.

Preference Stack Risk

severe

Funding Intensity

4160%

$20.8M of preferred stock equals ~42% of the assumed $50M fair value, so common equity is subordinate to a large liquidation preference.

Dilution Risk

high

With runway likely under two years from the Jan-2025 Series A, a follow-on round could dilute existing common holders by ~20%.

Secondary Liquidity

none

No secondary market signal; early private equity is illiquid until an acquisition or IPO.
