Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

However, lack of concrete numbers and private-status caveats keep upside contingent on milestones (IPO timing, funding rounds). Historically, private-space upside narratives can lift related SPAC-type vehicles on sentiment even before fundamentals materialize.
