## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $1.4B (FY2025). Experience: revenue up 53.0% on the year, up 15.2% a year over 4 years; operating margin 36.2%, up from 11.4%. Soundness: equity 72.8% of assets, return on equity 12.4%, payout 3.2% of profit. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $1.5B and $2.6B next year (method v4.1: its own 4-year record of growth weighed at 50% 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 $1.2B to $3.1B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (9 filers, $50M+ revenue, mining & quarrying of  nonmetallic minerals (no fuels)): operating margin 36.2% against a 11.2% median; growth 53.0% against 7.1%.
