## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $24.9B (FY2025), total debt $12.6B. Experience: revenue up 1.5% on the year, down 8.3% a year over 4 years; operating margin 18.6%, down from 19.6%. Soundness: equity 12.5% of assets, return on equity 69.4%, payout 47.9% of profit, 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 $20.6B and $28.1B 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 $18.0B to $31.8B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (60 filers, $50M+ revenue, surgical & medical instruments & apparatus): operating margin 18.6% against a 1.2% median; growth 1.5% against 11.6%.
