## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $241.9M (FY2024). Experience: revenue up 6.2% on the year, up 8.3% a year over 4 years; operating margin 9.7%, up from -10.1%. Soundness: equity 58.6% of assets, return on equity -1.2%. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $177.1M and $383.6M next year (method v4.1: its own 4-year record of growth weighed at 50% against $100M–1B 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 $145.7M to $470.1M. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (79 filers, $50M+ revenue, real estate investment trusts): operating margin 9.7% against a 24.7% median; growth 6.2% against 3.7%.

Its latest audited year is FY2025, which reports no revenue; the revenue figures and the range here are from FY2024, its last year with revenue on record. Figures are as filed in audited 10-K reports and can move with restatements, acquisitions, disposals or a change in fiscal year. A range set from how past company-years turned out is not a promise about the next one, and says nothing about the share price.
