GROWTH ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

None flagged.

WATCH

Revenue held flat over the last 3 years and is set to keep growing around 0%/yr.

WEAKNESSES

Growth is the weak spot here, trailing 99% of companies worldwide.

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. The one thing to watch: the company is not profitable yet.

MOMENTUM ASSESSMENT

STRENGTHS

None flagged.

WATCH

None flagged.

WEAKNESSES

Weak long-term results. It has been a disappointing long-term hold (-47% over three years and -47% over five), behind 80% of the market.

It's down 47% over the past year, now 76% below its 52-week high. That is lagging the market.

The stock is underperforming over the past month (-30%), over three months (-74%) and so far this year (-45%).

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 multi-year record is weak.
