Trajectory (indicative)

Projection over 3 fiscal years from the filed annual accounts, not a forecast, the extended trend.

growing Equity: growth of ~15.2%/year over 6 fiscal years, indicative, assuming unchanged policy.

Solid line = filed figures · dashed = extended trend · area = indicative range.

How do we compute this?

The trend is a robust median of all pairwise slopes between fiscal years (Theil-Sen), so a single odd year cannot hijack the line. For strictly positive series we also fit a log variant (compound annual growth) and keep whichever describes the figures best.

The area around the projection is 1.8 × the median absolute deviation from the trend, widening each year ahead (×1 / ×1.6 / ×2.2), with a minimum of 8% of the last value. It is an indicative range, not a statistical confidence interval.

A series whose deviations exceed 35% of its level is too volatile: we then deliberately show no projection. Every projection assumes unchanged policy and is blind to non-public information (order book, contracts, funding rounds).
