Harry Stebbings: Wix valued at $2.1BN despite $2.1BN ARR
Wix value matches annual recurring revenue

Harry Stebbings highlights what he describes as a 'brutal' downturn in the software-as-a-service (SaaS) sector, with Wix facing particular challenges.

He notes that Wix, which reports $2.1 billion in annual recurring revenue (ARR), currently holds a valuation of $2.1 billion. This 1:1 valuation-to-revenue ratio is described as surprising for a company of its size. Stebbings also observes that Base44, recognized as a leader in vibe coding, is now generating over $170 million in ARR.

Stebbings previously explained that a founder with $1.5 million in annual recurring revenue was not considered ready for Series A fundraising, projecting $5 million for the following year in his analysis of capital requirements for SaaS startups (read more). In another recent note, he reported that Elon Musk utilizes $2 billion in monthly compute from Anthropic and Google to meet critical AI infrastructure demands (read more). These observations provide additional context to Stebbings' assessment of company valuations and sector pressures.
