Their lawyers and consultants must be happy, they have clearly spent a ton of money on document creators. > > In their original summary document that they shared with us via email has their revenue projections and the earning multiple that support their valuation. > > Next year (2014) they say they will do $401MM in revenue and then more than double their revenue each year to $1.95B in revenue in 2017. All of the revenue is advertising revenue. And they will be do more revenue per user than Facebook by then. > > They lose money every year until 2017 where they will make $782MM and based on an earnings multiple 10.3x, they have their market valuation at $7.9B. > > So pretty aggressive projections and a plan from two guys who’ve never sold an ad in their life and have no experience in technology, but who knows crazier things have happen. > > What I do want to have is a user id and password to the product and to talk with the their technology lead. I would also want to talk with their sales lead and see their pipeline, they should have some of the 2014 $400m already identified in their pipeline and some of that already sold if that number is going to be taken seriously. (I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a company going from $0 revenue to $400MM in one year, GroupOn did not have that type of growth) > > Best, > > Neil > > > Neil Callahan > Rosemont Seneca Partners > 401 Greenwich Street, Suite 300 > New York, New York 10013 > 917-945-9516 (m) > 866-749-8879 (f) > www.rosemontsenecatech.com > Confidentiality Warning: This e-mail contains information intended only for the use of the individual or entity named above.

Let me know if there is other documents we should discuss. I may have missed it but I don't see a lot that shows projected revenue and supports the valuation. Do you?
