On the stock market since 2012, it operates in the everyday-essentials business. It has 24,078 employees. Now — the numbers.
The company closed last year at a loss: costs ran above sales. The picture changes only if spending is reined in.
An average decline of 28% a year over the last 4 years — the most striking risk in this picture. Red columns mark years that ended in a loss.
Before the clock runs out, either sales must climb sharply or new money must come in. For now, time is on the company’s side.
An investor who bought at the very peak is down 100% today. The business is the same; what changed most is the price — and the expectations — the market pins on it.
It pays out $3.51 per share each year — regular cash for whoever holds the stock.
A loss of $233.9M against $8.3B in annual sales. And on top of that, sales fell from the year before.
The stock sits at $0.23. Under exchange rules, stocks that stay below $1 for too long risk being removed from the market.
