Data Quality

Data: Medium

Despite Checkout.com's strong growth and profitability, the equity upside over 2 years is negative in our base and bear cases due to the extremely high current valuation (40x revenue) and critical competitive threats.

Last updated: July 3, 2026

Bull (15%)+58%

If Checkout.com maintains its 40x revenue multiple due to category leadership and sustained 40% growth, projected revenue of $473M yields a $18.9B exit, a 57.7% upside from $12B entry.

Base (40%)-1%

Multiple compresses to 25x, in line with high-growth comps like Adyen. Projected $473M revenue yields $11.8B exit, nearly flat (-1.46%) from entry.

Bear (45%)-100%

Multiple collapses to 2x due to competitive pressure from incumbents (Adyen, Stripe) and lack of IPO catalyst. Exit value of $946M is below $1.83B total funding, wiping out common stock entirely.
