Data Quality

Data: Low

Despite a critical competitive threat from DoorDash and a stale valuation mark, Postmates' current $2.4B valuation implies an 0.86x revenue multiple, well below public comps (1.5x-4x).

Last updated: July 3, 2026

Bull (10%)+100%

Base (55%)+232%

Revenue grows to $3.38B, multiple converges to public comp average of 2.5x. Exit value ~$8.5B, net of 20% dilution.

Bear (35%)-67%

Competitive pressure from DoorDash compresses multiple to 0.5x. Exit value $1.69B, after preference common recovers only $0.79B, a 67% loss.
