We use a net present value of our revenue forecast through 2026, apply a 50% probability of success (POS) for selinexor in penta-refractory multiple myeloma, a 35% POS for selinexor in combination treatment for multiple myeloma, and a 25% POS for selinexor in DLBCL. We use a 4x P/S multiple and estimated YE18 fully diluted net cash of $2.09/ share. Our P/S multiple of 4x is in-line with Karyopharm’s peers that range between 2-5x.”
