Data Quality
Data: LowThe equity has a negative expected value (-13%) in our probability-weighted scenarios because the entry price appears to price in flawless execution and a large liquidation preference sits ahead of common stock.
Last updated: August 4, 2026
If an IPO window opens and Wander's category leadership supports an 8.0x forward revenue multiple, exit value reaches $510M; after 20% dilution, common equity upside is +39% from the $320M entry. This assumes revenue hits $63.75M and the public market rewards the strong moat.
At a 5.5x forward revenue multiple, exit value is $350.6M, a 9.6% gain before dilution; after the expected 20% dilutive raise, common equity returns -10.4%. The current $320M valuation is already 5.0x projected 24-month revenue, leaving no cushion.
At a 3.0x forward multiple, exit value falls to $191.3M, below the $222M liquidation preference, so common stock is worthless. Capital intensity, high burn, and incumbent pressure make this tail risk material.
Preference Stack Risk
severeFunding Intensity
6940%$222M of liquidation preference equals 69% of the $320M entry valuation; common only participates above $222M, so bear-case exits are wiped out.
Dilution Risk
highWith only $64M in latest-round cash and $12M ARR, another dilutive raise is likely within 24 months; 20% dilution was assumed.
Secondary Liquidity
noneNo secondary market data; employee liquidity likely only via acquisition/IPO.
