Exit multiple expands to 7x as IPO window opens and Auterion's open-source standard drives category leadership, yielding $1.27B exit. After 20% dilution, net upside 92.3%.
Exit multiple converges to 4x (upper comp range) with $728M exit. 20% dilution nearly offsets the modest gain, leaving 1.3% net upside.
