Five-year path

Need two annual 10-Ks to draw a path. The desk will pull this issuer’s filings rather than invent a series.

Overview

This is the first live year on the desk. No market tape loaded. Z″ drops sales/assets so asset-light names are not punished for turnover. X4 is book equity on every name.

Book screen Safe; market PD —. Tape not priced — not a single default call.
