SI estimate 4.8/10, confidence 20 of 100 (family median).

weight 22% of this tense · 50th percentile among 9 sector filers · read for its shareholders

SI estimate Inferred, not read as filed

Why it is an estimate
Fewer than two of the three parts can be read: officer and director changes against the people in charge, the years the people in charge have been filing, the chief executive's years under the title, so the desk assumes the typical reading of its industry family, the median of 9 members with one.
What the record cannot read
Fewer than two of the three parts can be read: officer and director changes against the people in charge, the years the people in charge have been filing, the chief executive's years under the title.
How it was reasoned
family median, 9 readings behind it.
Confidence
20 of 100
What would change it

From the record

SI estimate, not a filed reading: Jewett-Cameron Trading Company's leadership is put at 4.8 of 10 with a confidence of 20 of 100, because fewer than two of the three parts can be read: officer and director changes against the people in charge, the years the people in charge have been filing, the chief executive's years under the title, so the desk assumes the typical reading of its industry family, the median of 9 members with one.
