## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $453.0M (FY2025), total debt $305.1M. Experience: revenue up 12.7% on the year, down 15.5% a year over 4 years; operating margin -15.4%, up from -17.8%. Soundness: equity 63.2% of assets, return on equity -9.5%, the dividend per share fell in the latest year on record. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $319.2M and $590.8M next year (method v4.1: its own 4-year record of growth weighed at 50% against $100M–1B 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 $273.2M to $694.7M. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (41 filers, $50M+ revenue, its industry group): operating margin -15.4% against a 12.5% median; growth 12.7% against 3.8%.
