## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $3.2B (FY2026), total debt $1.1B. Experience: revenue up 20.9% on the year, up 6.2% a year over 4 years; operating margin 10.7%, down from 13.1%. Soundness: equity 21.9% of assets, return on equity 40.3%, payout 51.0% of profit, dividend per share up 5 years running. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $3.1B and $4.0B 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 $2.8B to $4.4B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (14 filers, $50M+ revenue, its industry group): operating margin 10.7% against a 6.1% median; growth 20.9% against 3.4%.
