Bip Capital flags AI risks in software portfolios as public valuations reset
Bitget2026/10/27 16:07- Venture and growth equity managers should quantify portfolio-level AI exposure, focusing on per-seat revenue risks and software valuation marks.
- The S&P 500 software and services index lost about $830 billion in market value between January 28 and February 4, 2026.
- The SEG SaaS Index median enterprise-value-to-trailing-revenue multiple fell to 3.2x in the second quarter of 2026 from 5.7x a year earlier.
- Private funding-round pricing largely avoided the public-market reset; Carta reported an 11.4% down-round rate in the first quarter of 2026.
- Operating evidence remains limited: McKinsey's August 2026 survey found 37% of respondents attributed any EBIT impact to AI, essentially unchanged year-over-year.
