Why did the score change?

FY2024A (same capital structure) → FY2025A: 89.5 → 89.7

  • • Net leverage broadly stable at 1.8x
  • • Interest coverage broadly stable at 5.6x
  • • Liquidity ratio broadly stable at 4.8x
  • • FCF / debt broadly stable at 23.1%
  • • Near-term maturity share unchanged at 0%
  • • Margin volatility unchanged at 1.5 pts
  • • Revenue volatility unchanged at 0.9 pts
  • • Asset coverage unchanged at 1.17x
  • • Industry risk factor unchanged at 0.80

Each factor earns its weight linearly between a “worst” (0 pts) and “best” (full pts) threshold; weights and thresholds live in src/lib/config.ts. “Proj.” columns re-score the first projected period of each scenario. Risk bands: ≥75 Low · ≥60 Moderate · ≥45 Elevated · else High.

Covenant analysis

Metrics are computed from the projection by the scenario engine — no covenant output is typed in. Headroom = distance to the covenant (positive = cushion). Hypothetical covenants are UNDERWRITING ASSUMPTION; disclosed covenants are tested on a model-basis proxy.

No active covenants.

Red = payment default reached in or before that period. After a default the model keeps rolling mechanically for illustration; the recovery waterfall is struck at the default period.
