Ibotta IPO Valuation Analysis
- In my insight, I discuss valuation framework for comparable company analysis and outline revenue growth scenario under my base case.
- Considering Ibotta achieved profitability in 2023 driven by strong growth in the segment of third-party publishers, I view EV/Revenue as the most appropriate methodology to value Ibotta.
- I have a positive view of the upcoming Ibotta IPO. The company’s efficient B2B2C business model, success-based marketing approach and scale provide Ibotta with a long runway of growth.
