The score is held back primarily by weak cash-flow consistency and very thin operating margins, despite improving revenue and a return to modest profitability. Technicals also signal a sustained downtrend, and the elevated P/E further pressures the overall rating.
Positive Factors
Revenue recovery and return to profitability
The company shows a sustained recovery with revenue growth in 2024–2025 and consecutive positive net income, indicating demand stabilization. This reduces existential risk, supports incremental reinvestment in stores and systems, and underpins a multi-month improvement in core earnings quality.
Negative Factors
Volatile cash generation
Cash flows are inconsistent: after positive OCF and FCF in 2024, both turned negative in 2025 and past years show multiple negative OCF periods. This volatility weakens funding for maintenance, store rollout and working capital, increasing reliance on external financing and limiting strategic flexibility.
