Data: Low

Payflow offers a moderate expected upside around 16% over 2 years, but with significant risk from a high preference stack and incumbent competition.

Last updated: July 3, 2026

Bull (21%)+169%

Payflow maintains strong growth and high multiple (12x forward revenue) driven by category leadership in EWA and a favorable IPO window. Exit value reaches $220.8M, yielding common upside of 169% after preference.

Base (46%)+15%

Revenue reaches $18.4M in 24 months with slowing growth. The exit multiple converges to 7x, in line with public comps. Net of preference, common equity grows modestly to $68.3M, a 14.8% upside.

Bear (33%)-78%

Compressed exit multiple of 4x due to incumbent competition and market saturation yields exit value of $73.6M. After preferred liquidation, common recovers only $13.1M, a 78% loss from entry.
