Data Quality

Data: Low

Homebase offers strong product-market fit and switching costs, but the current valuation of $550M on $45M revenue (12x) is rich given public comps at 6-10x and high incumbent competition.

Last updated: July 3, 2026

Bull (10%)+39%

Homebase exits at 12x forward revenue ($816M) driven by an IPO window and category leadership in hourly workforce management, delivering 39% net upside after 20% dilution.

Base (45%)-1%

Homebase exits at 8x forward revenue ($544M), in line with public comps, but valuation contracts from current 12x, resulting in slight loss of -1% after dilution.

Bear (45%)-31%

Homebase exits at 5x forward revenue ($340M) as competition from ADP and Gusto compresses multiples, net loss of -31% after dilution.

Dilution Risk

high

Likely to require additional funding within 2 years given burn rate (no profitability data), potentially diluting employee ownership by 15-25%.

Secondary Liquidity

limited

Secondary market exists but liquidity is limited; same price as last round.
