## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $137.4M (FY2025), total debt $75.0M. Experience: revenue down 4.0% on the year, down 1.8% a year over 4 years; operating margin 16.4%, down from 24.6%. Soundness: equity 10.4% of assets, return on equity 82.9%, payout 94.6% of profit, dividend per share up 1 year running. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $114.7M and $146.8M 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 $107.7M to $156.7M. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (8 filers, $50M+ revenue, its industry group): operating margin 16.4% against a 14.9% median; growth -4.0% against 5.2%.
