Filing evidence summary

Mixed evidenceCoverage 4/5 core metrics

Operating margin changed -9.4 percentage points from the prior annual period.

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

Evidence signals

  • Operating margin compressed

    Operating margin changed -9.4 percentage points from the prior annual period.

    Why this surfaced

    Direction threshold: more than +1 percentage point constructive; below -1 point caution. Period end 2025-11-30.

  • Shareholders' equity was non-positive

    Debt/equity is shown as not meaningful rather than as a negative leverage ratio.

    Why this surfaced

    Same-period reported shareholders' equity was zero or negative; review the balance sheet and capital structure. Period end 2025-11-30.

  • 4 filing risk checks flagged

    Flagged areas: Solvency & liquidity.

    Why this surfaced

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

  • Revenue was broadly stable

    Latest reported annual revenue changed -1.3% 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 2025-11-30.

  • Free cash flow was positive

    Latest reported free cash flow was $5M.

    Why this surfaced

    Free cash flow = operating cash flow minus capital expenditures; positive is supporting evidence, not a valuation conclusion. Period end 2025-11-30.

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.

This ASU enhances and improves the income tax disclosure requirements under Topic 740, ""Income Taxes."" The key provisions of this update include additional disclosures related to income tax expense, unrecognized tax benefits, and the impact of tax rate changes on the financial statements. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its financial statement disclosures. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. While the Company has not yet determined the full effect on its financial reporting, it is in the process of evaluating how to implement the required enhanced disclosures. This includes more detailed information on tax rate reconciliation, tax liabilities, and changes in unrecognized tax benefits. In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2024-03, Income StatementReporting Comprehensive Income (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses , which enhances the disclosure requirements for income statement expenses by requiring additional disaggregation of certain expense categories in the notes to the financial statements.

Segment reporting · 4,181 characters as filed

Note 2 Segment Reporting The Company is organized in three reportable segments: 1. The cellular processing and cryogenic storage of umbilical cord blood and cord tissue stem cells for family use. Revenue is generated from the initial processing and testing fees and the annual storage fees charged each year for storage (the Umbilical cord blood and cord tissue stem cell service). 2. The manufacture of PrepaCyte CB units, the processing technology used to process umbilical cord blood stem cells. Revenue is generated from the sales of the PrepaCyte CB units (the PrepaCyte-CB). 3. The cellular processing and cryogenic storage of umbilical cord blood stem cells for public use. Revenue is generated from the sale of the cord blood units to the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP), which distributes the cord blood units to transplant centers located in the United States, and around the world. The Companys chief operating decision makers (CODM) are its co-CEO s, who review financial information for the purposes of making operating decisions, assessing financial performance and allocating resources. The CODM uses net income as reported on the consolidated statements of operations to assess segment performance and determine how to allocate resources. Total assets as presented on the consolidated balance sheets are used to measure segment assets. The CODM reviews significant expense categories that materially align with those presented in the consolidated statements of operations. The fo
