## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $1.1B (FY2025). Experience: revenue up 9.1% on the year, up 23.8% a year over 4 years; operating margin 19.7%, up from 17.7%. Soundness: equity 57.8% of assets, return on equity 28.2%, payout 7.1% of profit, dividend per share up 3 years running. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $1.1B and $1.5B 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 $960.4M to $1.7B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (151 filers, $50M+ revenue, its industry group): operating margin 19.7% against a 3.6% median; growth 9.1% against 9.1%.
