Data: Medium

Given a 93x revenue multiple on only 14% growth and a $100M preference stack, the 2-year expected common equity return is -86% — a very unfavorable risk-reward profile.

Last updated: July 3, 2026

Bull (10%)+35%

Exit multiple expands to 100x fueled by AI tailwinds and IPO anticipation. Common equity rises to $496M, delivering a 35% gain from the $367M common base.

Base (45%)-100%

Multiple contracts to 6x as growth decelerates, yielding an exit value of $35.8M, far below the $100M preference stack. Common stock recovers 0%.

Bear (45%)-100%

Multiple compresses to 3x amid intense competition and slowing growth. Exit value of $17.9M is insufficient to clear preferences, rendering common stock worthless.
