Negative Free Cash FlowPersistent negative free cash flow signals structural pressure financing capital expenditures or growth from internal cash. Over months this can force external financing, constrain strategic investments, and increase vulnerability to rising rates or credit tightening, weakening long-term flexibility.
Rising Total LiabilitiesGrowing liabilities, despite a moderate debt-to-equity, raise leverage risk over time. If liabilities outpace earnings or cash generation, financing costs and rollover risk increase, reducing resilience to cyclical downturns and limiting capital allocation options for growth.
Low Net Profit Margin / EPS PressureRelatively low net margins limit retained earnings and cushion against cost inflation. Coupled with negative EPS growth noted in fundamentals, weaker bottom-line leverage constrains reinvestment, dividend potential, and the ability to absorb input-price shocks over the medium term.
