Screen verdict
Did not qualify for any screen.
Warning signs
- Bankruptcy model reads distressed The Altman score sits inside the range historically associated with financial distress. It is used here only to exclude, never to rank, and it is a statistical band rather than a prediction about this company.
- Heavily indebted Net debt is 5.3 times EBITDA — roughly 5 years of earnings before interest, tax and depreciation to repay borrowings in full.
- Gross margin narrowing Gross margin fell from 30.4% to 28.1%. The company is keeping less of each dollar of sales than it did a year ago.
- Revenue shrinking Revenue fell 5.0% over the year, from $10.3B to $9.7B.
