Fiscal period ending 2025-10-26 versus 2024-10-27

The most acute near-term hits are already realized: a full valuation allowance against CAMT deferred tax assets under the new OBBBA law and a 173% surge in revolving credit capacity that sharply elevates leverage and refinancing exposure. Tariff/trade policy and Chinese rare earth export controls compound the picture with concrete supply chain and margin threats, while a new third-party AI dependency adds an unaddressed operational and cybersecurity vector.
