Last updated: July 19, 2026

Bull (10%)+138%

AI agent Autopilot and platform expansion could drive multiple expansion to 7x, yielding significant upside despite dilution.

Base (40%)+64%

Moderate revenue growth and multiple convergence to 5x provide decent returns, but dilution and preference overhang dampen common equity upside.

Bear (50%)-100%

If growth stalls and multiple compresses to 2.5x, implied exit value of $386M is below total funding of $685M, wiping out common stock.
