Weak Cash Generation / Negative FCFNegative free cash flow and poor cash conversion are structural concerns: they constrain capital for product development, marketing, or M&A, force reliance on financing, and reduce margin of error during downturns despite a healthy balance sheet.
Low Net Profit And EBIT MarginsPersistently low net and EBIT margins limit retained earnings and reinvestment capacity. Over months, this reduces strategic optionality, increases sensitivity to rising costs, and makes sustained growth or competitive investment harder without margin recovery.
Recent Revenue DeclineA decline in reported revenue growth is a structural risk: shrinking top line erodes operating leverage, pressures margins and cash flow, and can indicate weakening market positioning or product demand that impairs multi-quarter recovery prospects.
