Screen verdict
Did not qualify for any screen.
Warning signs
- Interest is covered, but thinly Earnings before interest cover the interest bill 1.3 times, leaving little room if profits fall.
- Shareholders diluted The share count rose 24.8% over the year, from 91m to 113m shares. Each existing share owns a smaller fraction of the company than it did a year ago.
- Profit not backed by cash Reported profit of $150.8M came with -$925.5M of operating cash flow. Profit that cash does not follow is the classic signature of aggressive accounting.
