Multi-year Revenue DeclineSustained top-line contraction erodes scale, weakens negotiating leverage with suppliers/customers, and magnifies fixed-cost burdens. If revenue trends persist, the company faces ongoing margin pressure and reduced ability to fund investments or turnaround initiatives from internal cash.
Negative Gross Profit And Net LossesPersistently negative gross margins indicate core production costs exceed revenues, signaling structural cost or pricing issues. Without durable margin recovery through cost restructuring or price power, the business model cannot sustainably generate operating earnings or internal financing.
Volatile & Negative Free Cash FlowRepeated negative free cash flow and inconsistent operating cash flows undermine the firm's capacity to fund operations, invest, or reduce leverage internally. This structural cash-generation weakness increases dependence on external financing and raises refinancing and solvency risk over the medium term.
