Data Quality
Data: LowAssuming 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
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.
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%.
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
severeFunding 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
highWith runway likely under two years from the Jan-2025 Series A, a follow-on round could dilute existing common holders by ~20%.
Secondary Liquidity
noneNo secondary market signal; early private equity is illiquid until an acquisition or IPO.
