Leica Biosystems (Aperio) - Vista: 0.7 TCR = 20% of Instruments, mechanical microsurgical, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Leica Biosystems (Aperio) - Vista safety composite

Leica Biosystems (Aperio) - Vista scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 77% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 46%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
