What the 10-K filed 2026-02-10 says about risks that are not on the face of the balance sheet, from the notes to the financial statements, Legal Proceedings and the MD&A (and, for big customers and key suppliers, Business and Risk Factors). Tickdelta picks sentences with specifics (amounts, accruals, covenant ratios) and quotes them as filed. New marks a sentence with nothing like it in the 10-K filed 2025-02-12.
Big customers
Customers the company names as a large share of revenue or receivables (it must name any worth 10% of revenue).
“In 2025, 2024 and 2023, revenues from the federal government accounted for 25%, 24% and 19%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated total revenues, primarily related to contracts with CMS for coverage of Medicare-eligible individuals within the Health Care Benefits segment.”
