## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $8.1B (FY2026), total debt $1.2B. Experience: revenue up 14.6% on the year, up 6.9% a year over 4 years; operating margin 14.5%, up from 13.2%. Soundness: equity 36.7% of assets, return on equity 33.1%, payout 23.0% of profit, dividend per share up 2 years running. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $7.4B and $10.5B next year (method v4.1: its own 5-year record of growth weighed at 57% against $1B–10B filers; across 2019–2025, 69.0% landed inside, 83.4% on the one year the method never saw). In a shock year the stress range is $6.6B to $11.9B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (14 filers, $50M+ revenue, its industry group): operating margin 14.5% against a 6.1% median; growth 14.6% against 3.4%.
