Figma, Inc. (FIG)

Executive Summary

Figma is the category-defining, browser-native collaborative design platform — a rare, high-quality software franchise growing revenue north of 40% at roughly 90% gross margins, with a 139% net-dollar-retention rate and positive free cash flow. It is also one of the most violent boom-and-bust stories of the current IPO class: priced at $33 in July 2025, it opened at $85, closed its first day above $115 (a ~250% pop that valued the company near $68 billion), and has since fallen roughly 85% to the high-teens — below both its IPO price and its 2024 private mark. This report works through the gap between a wonderful business and a still-demanding price: the financial history (and why the headline GAAP losses are almost entirely one-time IPO stock-compensation charges), the Adobe episode that anchors the asset’s scarcity value, the peer-relative valuation, the founder-controlled governance, and the central debate over whether AI ‘vibe-coding’ tools threaten Figma’s design workflow or become its next growth engine.
