## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $28.9B (FY2025), total debt $9.2B. Experience: revenue up 39.1% on the year, up 42.2% a year over 4 years; operating margin 11.1%, down from 12.7%. Soundness: equity 15.8% of assets, return on equity 29.6%. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $35.9B and $42.0B next year (method v4.1: its own 4-year record of growth weighed at 50% against $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 $33.5B to $44.7B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (70 filers, $50M+ revenue, services-business services, nec): operating margin 11.1% against a 7.9% median; growth 39.1% against 10.2%.
