## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $9.7B (FY2026), total debt $7.1B. Experience: revenue down 5.0% on the year, up 3.3% a year over 4 years; operating margin 8.7%, down from 11.0%. Soundness: equity 24.6% of assets, return on equity 10.5%, payout 116.0% 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 $8.5B and $10.3B 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 $7.9B to $11.1B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (10 filers, $50M+ revenue, food and kindred products): operating margin 8.7% against a 7.3% median; growth -5.0% against 4.4%.
