## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $10.9B (FY2025), total debt $6.0B. Experience: revenue down 5.2% on the year, down 1.7% a year over 4 years; operating margin -3.5%, down from 6.7%. Soundness: equity 55.4% of assets, return on equity -2.5%. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $9.2B and $11.0B 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 $8.5B to $11.8B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (13 filers, $50M+ revenue, industrial organic chemicals): operating margin -3.5% against a -3.2% median; growth -5.2% against -3.5%.
