## Edgarette's reading

Exposure: revenue $1.5B (FY2025), total debt $3.3B. Experience: revenue up 0.3% on the year, up 3.9% a year over 4 years; operating margin 25.6%, up from 24.9%. Soundness: equity 30.6% of assets, return on equity 22.9%, payout 96.5% 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 $1.4B and $1.7B 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 $1.3B to $1.8B. A statistical range, not company guidance. Against peers (79 filers, $50M+ revenue, real estate investment trusts): operating margin 25.6% against a 24.7% median; growth 0.3% against 3.7%.
