Warning signs

4 flagged
  • Liabilities exceed assets Shareholders' equity is negative at -$1.2B as of Mar 31, 2026. What is left for shareholders after creditors is, on the balance sheet, less than nothing.
  • 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.
  • Operating profit does not cover interest Earnings before interest cover the interest bill 0.4 times. Below 0.5× the debt is being serviced from something other than operations.
  • Heavily indebted Net debt is 12.5 times EBITDA — roughly 13 years of earnings before interest, tax and depreciation to repay borrowings in full.

Margins Each as a share of revenue. Gross: left after the direct cost of what was sold. Net: left after every cost. Free cash: free cash flow over revenue. A margin rising over years means the business keeps more of each dollar it sells. Methodology

Shares outstanding Shares in issue at the year's end. A rising count means each share owns a smaller slice of the company (stock pay, share sales); a falling one, buybacks. The chart's scale is fitted to the count, so a small change looks large: read the percentage. Methodology 290.40m
