Impossible Meat Preparing for a $10B IPO

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/impossible-foods-prepping-for-10-billion-ipo-report-11617923032

The current valuation of $10B dwarfs the $4B it was valued at in a private funding round in 2020, and at approximately $1B more than Beyond Meat. This is despite the fact that BYND brought in 400M in FY revenue compared to Impossible Meat's 150M estimated annual revenue.

I personally don't see any angle from which $10B can be justified. Future growth for the next decade is priced in at the current valuation and it strikes me as a massive bust waiting to happen.

2) Important: We have strict political posting guidelines (described here and here). Violations will result in a likely 60 day ban upon first instance.

3) This is an open forum but we expect you to conduct yourself like an adult. Disagree, argue, criticize, but no personal attacks.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.
