Last updated: July 19, 2026

Bull (15%)-67%

If Rocket Internet re-lists or executes a major exit, the market could re-rate its portfolio at a higher multiple (8x revenue). However, with revenue flat at $75.4M, exit value is only $603M, yielding -67% from entry.

Base (45%)-84%

Multiple converges to public comp range (~4x revenue). Projected revenue flat at $75.4M, exit value $302M, implying -83.5% return. No dilution or preference overhang.

Bear (40%)-92%

Multiple compresses to 2x revenue due to declining revenue trend and lack of growth. Exit value $151M, common stock return -91.8%. Preference stack negligible.
