The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2021, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2021, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $120k to $80k (−34%).

Government-grant reliance: 2022 43% · 2023 51% · 2024 58% · 2025 43%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
