Warning signs

4 flagged
  • Heavily indebted Net debt is 5.8 times EBITDA — roughly 6 years of earnings before interest, tax and depreciation to repay borrowings in full.
  • Profit not backed by cash Reported profit of $79.0M came with $39.6M of operating cash flow. Profit that cash does not follow is the classic signature of aggressive accounting.
  • Gross margin narrowing Gross margin fell from 18.7% to 13.6%. The company is keeping less of each dollar of sales than it did a year ago.
  • Revenue shrinking Revenue fell 24.0% over the year, from $3.2B to $2.5B.
