## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $5.0B (FY2026), total debt $8.2B. Experience: revenue up 27.1% on the year, up 15.6% a year over 4 years; operating margin 42.4%, up from 40.9%. Soundness: equity 16.7% of assets, return on equity 37.3%, payout 32.1% of profit. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $5.2B and $6.6B next year (method v4.1: its own 5-year record of growth weighed at 57% 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 $4.8B to $7.2B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (140 filers, $50M+ revenue, services-prepackaged software): operating margin 42.4% against a 0.9% median; growth 27.1% against 13.0%.
