Why This Question Matters

Rentals revenue trajectory toward $1B is the most important diversification signal. Reaching $900M+ would demonstrate the segment can become a material revenue pillar. Falling short would suggest the for-sale market dependency is harder to escape than the narrative implies.

Maintaining 39% growth falls short; $900M requires acceleration that market may not support. 39% growth trajectory provides partial support, but 39% growth yields only ~$834m - short of $900m creates counterweight. Probability: 0.33.
