With Braze last closing at $17.60 against a narrative fair value of $46.70, the gap between modelled upside and current pricing is wide and hard to ignore.

Curious what kind of revenue ramp and margin shift would need to line up for that $46.70 fair value? The most followed narrative leans on specific growth, profitability and valuation multiples that are usually reserved for category leaders.
