1.67 / 10
Underperform
Fundamental analysis reveals poor health with a score of 1.7/10. Key weaknesses include low return on assets and negative earnings growth, though asset turnover and revenue metrics offer some relief. Historical factor performance is mixed, with only a few factors (e.g., Fixed assets turnover) showing consistently positive returns, while others like Rate of return on total assets have negative historical performance. This indicates that current fundamentals are fragile and may not support strong long-term growth.
