Each column is that company's OWN annual period, labeled above with its fiscal year and period end. DAO's is the annual period ending closest to APEI's 2025-12-31: where DAO has already filed a fiscal year APEI has not, this comparison uses DAO's matching period rather than that later one. Fiscal calendars differ across companies, so two matching fiscal years can still end months apart, on either side of each other: past 183 days no winner is called, and past 400 days the column reads "n.m." throughout and nothing is compared across it. Green = better on that metric where direction is unambiguous. Source: SEC EDGAR XBRL (10-K). "n/a" = not disclosed under mapped tags; never estimated.
