The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2024 to 2025, from $1.6M to $3.4M (+107%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 100% · 2018 90% · 2019 10% · 2020 15% · 2021 16% · 2024 57%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
75% of SIMULATION IN MOTION MONTANA INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (51% for the typical peer).
