Series C

Base is building the foundation of American power. The grid is the largest, most complex machine in the world. But it’s aging, struggling to keep up with today’s demand, and is unprepared for our electrified future. Base is modernizing the grid as the first engineering-led, technology-driven power company. We’re deploying a nationwide network of distributed batteries that strengthens critical infrastructure and saves Americans money.

Base Power presents a moderate upside opportunity with an expected 35% return over a two-year horizon.

Last updated: March 10, 2026

Bull (35%)+150%

Base Power rapidly scales its manufacturing and expands into new regulated and deregulated markets, exceeding its $70M 2026 revenue projection to reach $150M-$200M ARR by 2028. This market leadership and successful VPP deployment justifies a $10.0B valuation, a 150% upside, despite intense competition.

Base (20%)+25%

Base Power achieves its aggressive 2026 revenue projection of $70M and continues strong growth, reaching $100M-$120M ARR by 2028. However, intense competition from Tesla and established utilities limits multiple expansion, leading to a modest 25% upside to a $5.0B valuation.

Bear (45%)-50%

Slower-than-expected market adoption, increased competitive pressure from incumbents like Tesla and Vistra, or regulatory hurdles impede Base Power's growth, causing it to miss revenue targets. A down round or exit at $2.0B, a 50% downside, significantly impacts common stock value due to the $1.3B liquidation preference.

Funding Intensity

33%

Investors hold approximately $1.3 billion in liquidation preferences, meaning common stock holders may see little to no return in an exit at or below the current $4.0 billion valuation.

Dilution Risk

high

As a Series C company with a capital-intensive business model, Base Power will likely undergo additional funding rounds, leading to further dilution for common stock holders.

Secondary Liquidity

limited

While some limited secondary market activity might exist for a Series C company, active secondary liquidity is unlikely at this stage.
