Over the last 2 years, sales grew about 10% a year on average.
There is $145.5M in the vault; even if every debt were paid off, $72.2M would remain.

Buyers haven’t stepped back in yet; the price hasn’t found its footing. Report-card grade: 36/100. For a turnaround signal, the stock first needs to close the gap with the market.
On our five-subject report card, PXED sits near the top of the class. A high grade doesn’t mean “guaranteed win” — it means “the evidence looks strong for now.”

The total grade weighs these five subjects against the sector — it isn’t a simple average of the five.
