Data: Low

Do not accept this offer for Orbit equity — the company was acquired by Postman in April 2024, meaning the independent equity story is already resolved.

Last updated: May 5, 2026

Bull (10%)-20%

Postman's acquisition was strategically priced above the $21.8M preference stack, preserving some value for common stockholders; employees who held vested grants at close received modest consideration and partially recovered grant-date value.

Base (40%)-75%

The April 2024 Postman deal likely valued Orbit near or only modestly above its $21.8M funding base, with preferred liquidation preferences consuming the bulk of proceeds and leaving common stockholders with minimal payout.

Bear (50%)-90%

With just 5.66% YoY growth and no disclosed revenue, the acquisition may have been an acqui-hire priced at or below the preference stack, resulting in near-zero recovery for employee common stock.

Preference Stack Risk

severe

Funding Intensity

85%

$21.8M in cumulative preferred capital sat ahead of all common stock; with a modest and undisclosed acquisition price, liquidation preferences almost certainly consumed the majority of exit proceeds before common holders saw anything.

Dilution Risk

high

Multiple financing rounds culminating in an A16Z-led Series A already layered significant dilution onto common stock, and post-acquisition absorption into Postman structurally subordinates any legacy Orbit equity instruments.

Secondary Liquidity

none

Orbit is a fully absorbed Postman subsidiary; no secondary market exists for Orbit equity and all legacy instruments were settled or extinguished at the April 2024 acquisition close.
