Last updated: July 19, 2026

Bull (15%)+60%

Accelerated AI data demand drives revenue growth and multiple expansion to 7x, yielding exit value of $38.2B (59.9% upside after 5% dilution). Strong profitability and customer wins support premium.

Base (55%)+14%

Revenue grows to $5.45B, multiple compresses to 5x (still above comps), exit value $27.3B (14.3% upside after dilution). Solid growth and profitability sustain moderate returns.

Bear (30%)-54%

Intensified competition from Dell/HPE and cloud providers pressures multiple to 2x, exit value $10.9B (-54.3% after dilution). Component volatility and market share loss weigh.
