## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $2.7B (FY2025), total debt $2.7B. Experience: revenue down 1.9% on the year, up 12.6% a year over 4 years; operating margin -33.7%, up from -70.5%. Soundness: equity 33.3% of assets, return on equity -58.9%. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $1.8B and $3.7B 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 $1.4B to $4.9B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (161 filers, $50M+ revenue, its industry group): operating margin -33.7% against a -4.3% median; growth -1.9% against 12.6%.
