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.

NEXSTAR MEDIA GROUP, INC. is on Z″ at 2.30 (grey) for FY2025, from an SEC 10-K. Retained earnings / assets is the line that sets the print. 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.
