WEAKNESSES

Revenue fell 22%/yr over the last 3 years, behind 90% of companies worldwide.1/10

Revenue is set to shrink 44%/yr over the next 3 years, behind most of the market.1/10

Revenue fell 22%/yr over the last 3 years and is set to shrink 44%/yr from here.

Over five years revenue is set to shrink 29%/yr, behind 90% of companies worldwide.1/10

The company is loss-making, so its revenue growth is not backed by profit yet.

BOTTOM LINE

Stalled Business

Growth is a weak point here: a business heading into decline. The one thing to watch: the company is not profitable yet.

MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

Strong recent results. The stock is outperforming over the past month (-1%).

WATCH

Average long-term results. Multi-year returns are middling (+75% over three years and -11% over five), roughly average for the market.

WEAKNESSES

It's down 22% over the past year, now 30% below its 52-week high. That is lagging the market.

The stock is underperforming over three months (-14%) and so far this year (-25%).

BOTTOM LINE

Falling Knife

Returns rank poorly over both the short and long run, and the price is still falling. Momentum is firmly negative — catching this is a bet against the tape, not with it. Wait for a base to form. The one thing to watch: the one-year trend is weak.
