guidance. Our ’26/’27/’28 adj EBITDA estimates move to $315mm/$516mm/

$784mm ($305mm/$467mm/$693mm prior). For ’26/’27/’28, we estimate

organic sales growth of +85%/51%/43% (vs +73%/43%/38% prior), with

margins at 22.7%/24.5%/26.1% (vs 23.4%/25.1%/27% before). Our estimates

imply a 2026-2028 revenue CAGR of ~45% and incremental EBITDA margins

of 27% in ’27 and 29.5% (a touch below 30%) in ’28. We model FCF of -

$31mm/$338mm/$548mm (-$30mm/$314mm/$492 prior) for ’26/’27’28. In

terms of our approach, we forecast ’27/’28 revenues based on the book ship
