Data Quality

Data: Low

Beeper's equity offers a negative expected return of -90.4% over 2 years due to a stale $125M valuation, flat revenue projection, and extreme multiple compression.

Last updated: July 3, 2026

Bull (10%)-76%

Revenue stays flat at $2.5M. Exit multiple expands to 12x (possible IPO window or category leadership), implying a $30M exit. After preferred recovery, common stock loses 76%.

Base (45%)-84%

Revenue flat at $2.5M. Exit multiple converges to 8x (public comp median), implying a $20M exit. Common stock loses 84%.

Bear (45%)-100%

Revenue flat at $2.5M. Exit multiple compresses to 4x (below comps), implying a $10M exit. Since exit value is below $16M preferred liquidation overhang, common stock recovers -100%.
