Bulls Say
Business RestructuringA pivotal year in reshaping the business to significantly improve its earnings power.
Debt ReductionNet debt fell $26M sequentially to $166M – a sizable improvement which was earlier than expected.
Inventory ManagementManagement believes it has line of sight to an additional $45M+ inventory reduction via seasonality benefits and a series of overdue efficiency initiatives.
Bears Say
Distributor Inventory OverloadSupply chain disruptions in 2022 led distributors to over-purchase, creating a challenging year-over-year comparison for Aztec insecticide sales.
Product Recall ImpactThe company faced a $12 million revenue reversal due to a product recall of Dacthal, which, combined with an additional $4 million charge to the cost of goods sold, resulted in a significant $16 million hit to gross profit.
Supply Chain ChallengesAn approximate $18 million year-over-year negative impact from the Aztec insecticide was realized, attributed to previous supply chain issues.
