Data Quality
Data: MediumEquity carries significant downside risk due to $65.1M preference stack against a $49.5M valuation, but base case 2.2x return is achievable if revenue grows to ~$24M and multiples normalize.
Last updated: July 3, 2026
IPO window or category leadership drives multiple expansion to 12x; projected revenue $24M yields $288M exit. Capped at 300% per Series B constraints.
Exit multiple converges to 7x (mid of comp range); $24M revenue → $168M exit. 20% dilution subtracted from 239% raw upside.
Multiple compresses to 2.5x; $24M revenue → $60M exit, triggering 1x preference on $65.1M funding, leaving common stock worthless.
