Why Stripe's valuation history has a hole in it
Stripe's own record goes from $91.5B to $159B. The $106.7B in between was never confirmed by the company.
Stripe has run employee tender offers each February since 2024, at $65B, $91.5B and $159B. In September 2025 press reported a share buyback at $106.7B. Stripe did not confirm it.
That matters when outlets describe the 2026 jump. Some compare $159B with $91.5B, a 74% increase. Others compare it with $106.7B. Both are in circulation.
We keep the reported figure on the profile, marked as reported, and build the chart from it so the history is not missing a year.
