Consistently Negative Operating And Free Cash FlowPersistent negative operating and free cash flow indicate structural cash burn from core operations rather than transitory items. This constrains reinvestment, forces dependence on external financing or equity raises, and increases the risk that operations cannot be sustained without material strategic change.
Persistent Negative Margins And LossesNegative net, EBIT and EBITDA margins across reporting periods reflect ongoing unprofitable operations. Sustained losses erode capital, limit the ability to reinvest in growth or talent, and make it difficult to build scale or compete on pricing—turnaround will require sustained margin improvement.
Declining Revenues And Shrinking Assets/equityDeclining revenues coupled with erosion of total assets and shareholders' equity point to a shrinking business scale. For an asset manager, a smaller asset base structurally reduces fee revenue potential and magnifies fixed-cost leverage, pressuring margins and long-term viability absent AUM stabilization.
