Data Quality
Data: LowGiven the analysis, the equity grant would likely be worthless as the projected exit values are far below the $68.7M total funding preference stack.
Last updated: July 3, 2026
Even with optimistic 6x multiple on projected $1.7M revenue, exit value of $10.3M is below $68.7M total funding, leaving common stock worthless.
Base case 5x multiple yields $8.6M exit, far below liquidation preference, common stock recovers -100%.
Bear case 3x multiple yields $5.2M exit, well below total funding, common stock recovers -100%.
