Keep the promise, its denominator, and the later statement in separate cells. The verdict remains unresolved when the units do not match.

Reference & Evidence

Source: Author's own worksheet, based on the frozen P02 public panel. The worksheet is a control instrument, not a validated management system.

Each line is a claim from the register this journal publishes against, resolved from the register at build time.

  • B A synergy promise and a later public statement are separate evidence objects that must retain their own unit, timing, and scope Claim ledger - promised-synergies-need-a-ledger · P02-C1
  • B The P02 panel contains twelve receipt-complete transactions announced in 2023 or 2024, with a US or European participant, a primary value of at least US$10 billion, and a later public record Source campaign - promised synergies need a ledger · P02-C2
  • B The panel's states are confirmed, revised, not quantified, not comparable, and unresolved, preserving disclosure quality without manufacturing a score Claim ledger - promised-synergies-need-a-ledger · P02-C16
