Data Quality

Data: Low

Sweet Security's equity offers high risk and negative expected return due to a heavy preference overhang ($120M on ~$250M valuation), intense competition from incumbents, and uncertain growth.

Bull (20%)+33%

Exit multiple holds at 20x (same as entry) due to IPO wave or acquisition by a major tech firm; projected revenue of $19.2M yields $383M exit, but 20% dilution cuts upside to 33.3%.

Base (35%)-43%

Exit multiple converges to public comp median of 10x; $191.6M exit value results in -23.4% upside before 20% dilution, net -43.4%.

Bear (45%)-100%

Exit multiple compresses to 5x; $95.8M exit is below $120M preference stack, so common stock recovers -100%.
