## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $1.8B (FY2025), total debt $703.9M. Experience: revenue up 43.8% on the year, up 14.4% a year over 4 years; operating margin -10.6%, down from 4.3%. Soundness: equity 36.9% of assets, return on equity -34.5%. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $1.9B and $2.9B next year (method v4.1: its own 4-year record of growth weighed at 50% 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 $1.6B to $3.3B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (17 filers, $50M+ revenue, its industry group): operating margin -10.6% against a 8.1% median; growth 43.8% against 10.6%.
