Chainfir Capital says Manus revenue run rate of $400 million-$500 million sets floor for funding round
META•Chainfir Capital said Manus’ roughly $400 million-$500 million annualized revenue run rate set the floor for a funding round exceeding $500 million. The run rate reportedly rose from about $100 million when Meta completed its roughly $2 billion acquisition in December, while a roughly $4 billion valuation target was reportedly about double Meta’s agreed price.
1. Revenue and funding
Chainfir Capital said Manus’ roughly $400 million-$500 million annualized revenue run rate set the floor for its $500 million-plus fundraising. The run rate reportedly rose from about $100 million when Meta completed a roughly $2 billion acquisition in December.
2. Regulatory shift
Chinese regulators later forced Meta to unwind the deal, but Chainfir said Manus kept shipping product through the regulatory shock. The analysis said revenue momentum could absorb regulatory risk and support a shift toward an independent listing, including reported preparations for a Hong Kong IPO.
