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 5.8 times EBITDA — roughly 6 years of earnings before interest, tax and depreciation to repay borrowings in full.
- Shareholders diluted The share count rose 7.9% over the year, from 65m to 70m shares. Each existing share owns a smaller fraction of the company than it did a year ago.
- Gross margin narrowing Gross margin fell from 80.0% to 72.5%. The company is keeping less of each dollar of sales than it did a year ago.
