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.
- Gross margin narrowing Gross margin fell from 16.6% to 15.0%. The company is keeping less of each dollar of sales than it did a year ago.
