## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $12.4B (FY2025), total debt $17.8B. Experience: revenue down 5.4% on the year, down 10.9% a year over 4 years; operating margin -6.5%, down from 3.5%. Soundness: equity -3.3% of assets (liabilities exceed assets). Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $10.2B and $12.0B 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 $9.5B to $12.8B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (14 filers, $50M+ revenue, telephone communications (no radiotelephone)): operating margin -6.5% against a 2.5% median; growth -5.4% against 2.3%.
