WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME FROM?
90%Delta Group
Delta GroupSalt Life Group 10%
90% of all revenue comes from a single line: Delta Group.

That much dependence is a risk in itself: if this one line weakens, the whole company feels it directly.

Revenue last year:
$415.4M
The loss that same year:
$33.2M
For every $1 it earns, the company spends $1.1.

The company closed last year at a loss: costs ran above sales. The picture changes only if spending is reined in.

THE SALES TREND
Sales are moving sideways.

No real growth (-1% a year). Red columns mark years that ended in a loss.

In the vault right now:
$187K
DEBT: $221.9M
At this pace, that money lasts less than a year.

Before the clock runs out, either sales must climb sharply or new money must come in. This is the most critical line in the whole picture.

Every quarter, analysts set a profit bar.

3 TIMES IN THE LAST 6 QUARTERS
A mixed scorecard.
What executives did with their own stock over the last 12 months:
32 buy10 sell

Executives buying with their own money is usually read as confidence in the company’s future.

THE FIVE-YEAR JOURNEY
A long and steep decline.

An investor who bought at the very peak is down 98% today. The business is the same; what changed most is the price — and the expectations — the market pins on it.

1
THE BRIGHT SIDE · 1/2
Executives are buying their own stock

Over the last 12 months, company executives reported 32 buys and 10 sells. Management buying with its own money is usually read as a good sign.

2
THE BRIGHT SIDE · 2/2
Pays a steady dividend

It pays out $0.20 per share each year — regular cash for whoever holds the stock.

1
THE RISKS · 1/3
Running at a loss

A loss of $33.2M against $415.4M in annual sales. And on top of that, sales fell from the year before.

2
THE RISKS · 2/3
Trading under $1

The stock sits at $0.58. Under exchange rules, stocks that stay below $1 for too long risk being removed from the market.

3
THE RISKS · 3/3
The cash has a countdown

At the current pace of spending, the cash lasts less than a year. After that, the company needs to find new money.

FINALE · THE GRADE
grade pending

We don’t have a report card for this stock yet — the data isn’t mature enough to grade. No grade is information too: it means the evidence is thin.
