Warnings

⚠ Stock-based employee pay is 21% of revenue — your ownership shrinks by about 2.0% each year as new shares are issued. Our estimate already accounts for this dilution.

ℹ Gross margin of 80% means each dollar of revenue is highly profitable. As the company grows, overhead costs should shrink as a share of revenue, boosting overall profits.

ℹ Wall Street's average price target is $27.93 (from 48 analysts). Our estimate is 78% above the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.

Key Risks

Current FCF misleads — the model values future margins, not today's cash
SBC dilution is the hidden tax: 2-4% annual share growth compounds fast
