Filing evidence summary

Constructive evidenceCoverage 2/5 core metrics

Latest reported annual revenue changed -1.8% from the prior reported annual observation.

Backward-looking filed evidence under visible rules - not a rating, forecast or investment advice. Missing data is never scored.

Evidence signals

  • Revenue was broadly stable

    Latest reported annual revenue changed -1.8% from the prior reported annual observation.

    Why this surfaced

    Direction threshold: above +2% constructive; below -2% caution; otherwise monitor. This is not labeled one-year growth when filing periods have a gap. Period end 2025-12-31.

  • No current rule-based risk flags

    4 filing-based checks were evaluable.

    Why this surfaced

    The full financial analysis shows each value, threshold, and sector limitation.

  • Free cash flow was positive

    Latest reported free cash flow was $32M.

    Why this surfaced

    Free cash flow = operating cash flow minus capital expenditures; positive is supporting evidence, not a valuation conclusion. Period end 2025-12-31.

Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.

Per fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions. The per-year series is part of Pro risk analysis.

First filing reporting each period vs the latest filing carrying it (10-K and 10-Q only, periods since 2020, the extractor's winning tag per concept); a change under 0.5% is treated as rounding. A change can be a restatement, a reclassification or a re-tagging in a later comparative column; the two filings are linked so the reader can see which. Descriptive, not a verdict.

Commitments and contingencies · 4,335 characters as filed

"Commitments and Contingencies The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. The Companys maximum potential exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amounts of those instruments. At December 31, 2025, an allowance for unfunded commitments of $419,000 had been recorded, as compared to $273,000 at December 31, 2024. See Note 1 ""Summary of Significant Accounting Policies"" for information related to CECL. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commercial and standby letters of credit are commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These off-balance sheet financial instruments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The approximate remaining terms of commercial and standby letters of credit range from less than one year to five years. Since these financial instruments may expire without being drawn upon, the total amounts do not necessarily represent f

"Share-based Compensation Share-based compensation awards prior to April 17, 2023 were issued under the Company's Amended and Restated Omnibus Stock and Performance Compensation Plan (the ""Prior Plan""). On April 18, 2023, shareholders approved the 2023 Omnibus Stock and Performance Compensation Plan (the ""2023 Omnibus Plan"") to replace the Prior Plan.

Leases · 1,775 characters as filed

Leases The Company leases certain premises under operating leases. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had lease liabilities of $4.5 million and right-of-use assets of $4.4 million. Lease liabilities and right-of-use assets are reflected in other liabilities and other assets, respectively. Included in occupancy expense on the consolidated statements of income for 2025 was operating lease cost of $855,000, short-term lease cost of $203,000, and there was no variable lease cost. The Company paid cash of $826,000 for operating lease amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities for the year ended December 31, 2025. No right-of-use assets were obtained in exchange for lease liabilities during the year ended December 31, 2025. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the weighted average remaining lease term for the operating leases was 6.1 years and the weighted average discount rate used in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was 2.75%. Certain of the Companys leases contain options to renew the lease; however, these renewal options are not included in the calculation of the lease liabilities as they are not reasonably certain to be exercised.

"Impact of New and Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In December 2023, the FASB issued 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (""ASU 2023-09""). This ASU requires public business entities to disclose in their rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about federal, state, and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about the reconciling items in some categories if items meet a quantitative threshold. It also requires all entities to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes for annual periods and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold, among other things. The adoption of ASU 2023-09 was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and can be seen in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements. In July 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2025-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (""ASU 2025-05"").
