Current thesis
The bull case is that FY26 closed with modest revenue growth, a sharp AOI margin step-up, and lower leverage, while management signaled that SDC strength and easing export controls could help FY27 core growth recover. If the H1 guidance update confirms the BPD problems are temporary rather than structural, the earnings power story improves meaningfully.

Value
What changed
Value remains the lead driver in the composite, 7D delta -0.3.
What can break
BPD commercial execution and export-control-related shipping delays remain the clearest near-term operating risk; management explicitly flagged both in the release. [#8-K-2026-05-27]
