One scored print is not a track record. A rolling ratio only starts meaning something after several quarters, and this name has 1. Read the row, not the average.

22.17 to 24.03

Implied quotes conflicted between 8.7% and 9.5%, against an eight-quarter median realised move of 12.6%. Resolved on the August 7 close: 22.17 to 24.03, a rise of 8.39%, just inside the implied and a long way under that median. Revenue missed and the stock rose on prediction-market growth, so the direction was not the one the revenue line implied.
