TAM TOP-DOWN

MarketsandMarkets and Mordor Intelligence peg the global CDN market at $26.5-27.3B in 2025. Hyperscaler-captive spend (AWS CloudFront consumed internally, Azure Front Door bundled with Azure contracts, Google Cloud CDN on GCP workloads) accounts for an estimated 85% of the market by revenue based on Akamai 28% plus Cloudflare 17% plus AWS/Google/Azure combined share implying top-5 hold roughly 70-80%. Stripping captive hyperscaler and Akamai enterprise-locked spend leaves roughly 15-18% as independently contested market, approximately $4.0-4.9B. Mid-point used: $4.8B.

$27.25B global CDN x 17.5% non-captive independent segment = $4.8B top-down TAM

TAM BOTTOM-UP

Approximately 2B indexed websites globally; 27% CDN adoption rate per MarketReportsWorld gives roughly 540M CDN-using web properties. Realistically paying customers (not free-tier Cloudflare) estimated at 10% of that base, or 54M entities. Average annual CDN spend for a paying SME/mid-market site estimated at $300/year based on 5centsCDN's $2.50/TB pricing and typical 10TB/month consumption. This is a wide assumption given limited ARPU data and inflates TAM significantly versus the top-down.

540M CDN sites x 10% paying x $300/yr average spend = $16.2B bottom-up TAM

SAM FILTERS

Starting from the conservative top-down TAM of $4.8B. Filter 1: geography, 5centsCDN serves global but is strongest in NA, EU, and emerging APAC; full global scope retained, no reduction. Filter 2: segment fit, target is mid-market OTT, IPTV, gaming, and broadcaster clients matching existing 1,000-client profile; enterprise finance and hyperscaler-native workloads excluded at 60% removal. Filter 3: pure-play CDN only, no WAF/DDoS bundle capability currently limits buyer pool by additional 40% of remaining segment.

$4.8B x 40% segment fit x 25% reachable without security bundle = $480M top-down SAM; bottom-up: 55,000 reachable mid-market OTT/IPTV/gaming firms globally x $20K avg annual spend = $1.1B

SOM BUILD

5centsCDN starts with 1,000 clients; evidence does not confirm current revenue so ARPU is assumed at $5K/year average (consistent with $2.50/TB pricing and SME volumes), implying roughly $5M current run-rate. Year-1 target: grow to 1,400 clients at $6K ARPU via APAC/LatAm push, $8.4M. Year-2: 1,800 clients at $7K with basic security add-on, $12.6M. Year-3: 2,000 clients at $8K, $16M; however conservatively capped at $12M reflecting churn and sales capacity limits. Three-year SOM represents approximately 2.5% of the conservative SAM.

600 net-new mid-market clients x $20K avg annual contract value = $12M year-3 SOM; ~2.5% of $480M SAM
