THE BRIGHT SIDE · 1/1
Strong cash, light debt

There is $93.0M in the vault; even if every debt were paid off, $27.6M would remain.

THE RISKS · 1/2
Sales are shrinking

Over the last 4 years, sales fell about 36% a year on average. Profit is holding up, but a shrinking business is a risk worth watching.

THE RISKS · 2/2
Executives lean toward selling

Over the last 12 months, executives reported 51 sells against just 2 buys. Not an alarm bell by itself, but a number worth watching.
