Coming off of a low-teens F'25 exit rate, we Normalized seasonality in F'26 supporting We model L-MSD organic growth through
model HSD growth in F'26 followed by HSD- MSD+ organic coming off a strong F'25 exit F'28, as macro and policy uncertainty drive
LDD in F'27/28 as large projects convert to rate. We model another 250bps+ of continued project delays, limiting capex
orders and revenue through 2H. Strong segment margin expansion in F'26 on unlock and organic acceleration. Margin
incrementals should drive 200-300bps volume leverage and productivity. With expansion should continue, but less so than
annual margin expansion, capitalizing on improving demand and structural F'25, as slower growth limits leverage
cost out initiatives and outsized volume improvement in the cost profile, we forecast benefits. Our ~23.5x multiple represents a
leverage. Our ~34.5x multiple represents a MSD+ organic and ~35% incrementals mid teens premium to the S&P and in line
~70% premium to the S&P, in line with continuing in F'27/28.
