Data Quality
Data: MediumThe equity upside is highly negative due to a stale $1.5B valuation multiple of 42.5x revenue, while comparable public companies trade at 3.5-5x.
Last updated: July 3, 2026
Favorable IPO window or sustained category leadership could maintain the current 42.5x multiple, but capped at +100% upside per late-stage guidelines. Implied exit value ~$3B, above $1.517B funding, so common stock recovers.
Multiple converges to 4.25x forward revenue, yielding exit value ~$384M, well below total funding of $1.517B. Common stock is wiped out by preference stack.
Multiple compresses to 2x forward revenue due to incumbent threats and slowing growth. Exit value ~$181M, far below funding, resulting in -100% return for common.

Secondary Liquidity
