Jason, I have their financial analysis slides, but honestly I am not sure if I am supposed to make them public. (I guess you just have to wait until THEY make them public).
About the valuation, I have no idea. Not everybody likes to have a 10X valuation, which is clearly a sign of tech bubble over-evaluation. (and actually such over-evaluations can be very harmful to companies later on if things don’t turn up as expected) But I do not know exactly the story with their latest evaluation.
