Filing evidence summary

Mixed evidenceCoverage 5/5 core metrics

Latest reported annual revenue changed -2.3% 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 contracted

    Latest reported annual revenue changed -2.3% 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 2025-12-31.

  • Operating margin compressed

    Operating margin changed -1.2 percentage points from the prior annual period.

    Why this surfaced

    Direction threshold: more than +1 percentage point constructive; below -1 point caution. Period end 2025-12-31.

  • 1 filing risk check flagged

    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 $154M.

    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.

Point-in-time ledger

first-reported vs latest filing · periods since 2020-01-01 · 0 changed periods

No period on file has changed between its first report and the latest filing carrying it.

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.

Segment reporting · 8,323 characters as filed

3. REPORTABLE SEGMENTS Reportable segments are components of an enterprise that engage in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (CODM) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. The Companys CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. The Company identified two reportable segments on the basis of internal information provided to the CODM: Ocean Transportation and Logistics which are described in Note 1. Each segment is managed separately based upon fundamental differences in the operations of each segment. The Companys Ocean Transportation service primarily involves the transportation of customer cargo on Company owned and chartered vessels. The Companys Logistics service provides customers with logistics solutions primarily using third-party purchased transportation. The Companys CODM assesses the performance of each segment using operating income. The Companys CODM reviews the performance of each segment using monthly internal reports which provide variance analysis of actual results by segment compared to budget, forecast and prior year. The Companys CODM uses this information when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment. Segment balance sheet information is not provided to the CODM as capital decisions are
