    Before you compare

    • CRS figures come from its 2026 FDD and Dryvebox figures from its 2025 FDD, so the years differ.
    • CRS discloses more than one business format, so the investment range spans formats; the full report breaks them out.
    • Item 19 figures cover the location groups each FDD names (CRS: 3, Dryvebox: 2). Different groups are not directly comparable.
