Bull (20%)+50%

Strong adoption of diskless Kafka drives rapid revenue growth. Multiple expands as IPO window opens. Exit valuation exceeds $500M, delivering 2.7x upside.

Base (55%)+10%

Moderate revenue growth with steady market share gains. Multiple converges to public comp range around 10x. Exit valuation ~$350M + dilution, leading to modest upside.

Bear (25%)-30%

Incumbent pressure from Confluent and Redpanda limits traction. Slow growth forces down round. Preference stack absorbs value, common stock loses 30% or more.
