Crusoe's equity offers limited upside over 2 years given the high current valuation ($23.6B) and expected dilution from a $3B pre-IPO round.

Last updated: July 3, 2026

Bull (20%)+7%

Crusoe's pre-IPO round at $30B valuation drives exit value to $30B, a 27% gain before 20% dilution for subsequent raise. IPO within 2 years provides liquidity.

Base (35%)-50%

Revenue growth slows, exit multiple compresses to 15x 2028 revenue of $1.1B, yielding $16.6B exit. Dilution from $3B raise further reduces upside.

Bear (45%)-73%

Competition from big tech and operational setbacks pressure multiple to 10x, exit value $11B. Preference stack at $4.1B limits common recovery, but no wipeout.

Funding Intensity

1750%

Total funding $4.14B vs valuation $23.62B, so 1x preference covers 17.5% of exit value.

Dilution Risk

high

Planned $3B pre-IPO round could dilute existing holders by ~10% if at $30B pre, but larger if at lower valuation.

Secondary Liquidity

moderate

Current valuation based on secondary trades, but liquidity is limited for employees.
