## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $21.9B (FY2026), total debt $5.0B. Experience: revenue up 6.7% on the year, up 7.4% a year over 4 years. Soundness: equity 9.5% of assets, return on equity 73.2%, payout 59.5% of profit, dividend per share up 18 years running. Credibility: four or more audited years, reasonable weight. Range: 80% of past cases like this landed between $21.3B and $24.1B next year (method v4.1: its own 5-year record of growth weighed at 57% 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 $20.2B to $25.3B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (35 filers, $50M+ revenue, services-computer processing & data preparation): growth 6.7% against 10.2%.
