1. net_debt requires BOTH cash and total_debt; a missing side is null, not
treated as zero (which would be a partial, misleading value).
2. net_debt_to_ebitda is null when TTM EBITDA <= 0 — a negative denominator
would otherwise rank a distressed issuer as favorably low-leverage.
3. The quarter tape is the CONSECUTIVE run ending at the latest period (stops at
a gap), so trend text never compares non-adjacent quarters as if consecutive.
4. YoY growth is null when the prior-year TTM is <= 0 (e.g. loss->profit), which
is not a meaningful percentage.
Also corrected the plan's net-debt formula to total debt − (cash + ST) matching
the positive-means-net-debt implementation. +4 tests. 10 passed.
