• evidence: Prior twelve-month baseline: 18.3 listings/month.; Relative change: +83.6%.; Trailing three complete months: 101 new listings (33.7/month).
• conflicting evidence: Retroactive months undercount models delisted before the first catalog snapshot, which biases the trailing-vs-baseline comparison toward acceleration.

Appendix — Filed Capital-Structure Review

Confirmed facts below are analyst-reviewed against primary filings. Pending matches are not confirmed transactions. Direction appears only when an analyst separately records a subject, horizon, rationale, and falsifier.

Confirmed facts

• MICROSOFT · capex_commitment: The matched excerpt is narrative (AI infrastructure investment risk factor), but the same 10-K quantifies the forward commitment: "As of June 30, 2026, we had additional leases, primarily for datacenters, that had not yet commenced of $329.1 billion", commencing fiscal 2027-2033 with terms of 1-20 years (leases note). Context from the same filing: fiscal-2026 additions to property and equipment were $115,948M (vs $64,551M in fiscal 2025); operating lease liabilities $21,925M and finance lease liabilities $66,594M at Jun 30 2026. Amount recorded is the $329.1B uncommenced datacenter lease commitment, the filing's only quantified forward buildout commitment; commitment_type=other because the enum lacks a lease category. announcement_date is the 10-K filing date; effective_date the balance-sheet date. primary filing
• NVIDIA · capex_commitment: Verified against the 10-Q commitments schedule (R55 detail, accession 0001045810-26-000075): total future purchase commitments as of Jul 26 2026 are $366B, composed of supply and capacity $279B, cloud service agreements $29B, data center leases not commenced $25B, equity investments $25B, and capital expenditures $8B, spread remainder-FY2027 $120B / 2028 $100B / 2029 $98B / 2030 $16B / 2031 $10B / 2032+ $22B. Amount recorded is the $366B total contractual commitment; commitment_type=other because the total spans supply, cloud, lease, equity and capex categories (only $8B is the literal capital-expenditures line; breakdown given here). announcement_date is the 10-Q filing date; effective_date is the as-of balance date. primary filing
• NVIDIA · debt_issuance: Verified against two independent primary sources. NVIDIA 10-Q (accession 0001045810-26-000075, period ended Jul 26 2026) states: "In June 2026, we issued an aggregate of $25.0 billion of senior unsecured notes across seven tranches for general corporate purposes." The seven new tranches in the long-term debt schedule (4.250% due 2028 $3.5B; 4.350% due 2029 $3.5B; 4.500% due 2031 $4.0B; 4.750% due 2033 $3.5B; 4.950% due 2036 $4.0B; 5.550% due 2046 $3.0B; 5.625% due 2056 $3.5B) sum to exactly $25.0B and match the prospectus supplement (424B5 dated Jun 15 2026, settlement on or about Jun 18 2026, net proceeds ~$24.9B, consistent with the 10-Q cash-flow debt proceeds of $24.9B). maturity_date left null: seven tranche maturities (2028-2056) cannot be represented by the single-date field; extend the typed fact model for multi-tranche before building the maturity wall from this row. primary filing

Appendix — Data Coverage

Operational snapshot at report generation time. Run timestamps can post-date the evidence period; a source watermark can also be a scheduled future event date and does not extend the report's evidence window.

• Errored last run: eia930, eia930_subba, iso_lmp

Methodology: the runtime is deterministic end to end. Each chart is labelled bullish, bearish, mixed, or no read for an explicitly named subject and horizon. No domain total, composite, or numeric confidence is calculated. Missing evidence remains unavailable; hits and misses publish at equal prominence. The sha256 of this issue's final markdown is stored append-only in aib_gold.report_issues for future external anchoring.
