Last updated: March 10, 2026

Bull (27%)+300%

Palmstreet leverages its strong community and expands successfully into fashion, beauty, and lifestyle, capturing significant market share from traditional e-commerce and social platforms. This drives revenue to over $100M+ by 2028, justifying a $700M+ valuation at 7x revenue, well above the current $175M.

Base (42%)+100%

Palmstreet maintains its niche leadership in live shopping for unique items, growing steadily by expanding its seller base and product categories. Revenue reaches $50M+ by 2028, leading to an acquisition or IPO at a $350M valuation, reflecting solid execution but facing strong incumbent competition.

Bear (31%)-75%

Dominant incumbents like TikTok Shop and Instagram significantly ramp up their live shopping features and user acquisition, commoditizing the market and eroding Palmstreet's niche advantage. Growth stalls, leading to a down round or distressed acquisition at a $43.75M valuation, wiping out most common stock value given investor preferences.
