Business observations	Revenue and profit rise across all three illustrative periods. Net profit margin improves from 11.6% to 14.9%. Positive operating cash flow accompanies reported earnings.	Illustrative revenue expands in each reporting period. Net profit grows faster than revenue in FY2025. The sample business serves several parts of the energy value chain.
Risks to investigate	Enterprise customer concentration could affect recurring revenue. Operating cash flow remains below reported profit. Private shares may be difficult or impossible to sell.	Negative FY2025 operating cash flow requires explanation. Project timing and working capital can make earnings volatile. Debt, guarantees, and contingent liabilities are not supplied.
Missing evidence	Audited financial statements and accounting notes. Customer concentration and retention disclosures. Capital structure, transfer restrictions, and valuation inputs.	Project receivable ageing and customer payment terms. Debt maturity schedule and financing covenants. Audited cash-flow notes and project-level disclosures.
