Data: Medium

Equity upside is deeply negative (-42.1% expected) due to a 30x revenue multiple and critical incumbent threats.

Last updated: July 3, 2026

Bull (20%)+7%

If AI enterprise adoption accelerates and You.com captures category leadership, revenue reaches $122M and exit multiple holds at 15x, yielding $1.83B exit. After $195M preference, common stock returns 9% pre-dilution, net 7.2% after 20% dilution.

Base (35%)-42%

Exit multiple converges to 7.5x (public peer range) on $122M revenue, giving $915M exit. After preference, common pool is $720M, a -52% return pre-dilution, net -41.6% after dilution.

Bear (45%)-64%

Incumbent competition compresses exit multiple to 4x on $122M revenue, exit $488M. After $195M preference, common pool $293M, pre-dilution return -80.5%, net -64.4% after dilution.
