WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME FROM?
65%Advanced Materials & Structures
Advanced Materials & StructuresEngineered Papers 35%
65% of all revenue comes from a single line: Advanced Materials & Structures.

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

Revenue last year:
$2B
The loss that same year:
$337.4M
For every $1 it earns, the company spends $1.2.

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 growing overall, with a pause along the way.

Average growth of 12% a year over the last 4 years. Red columns mark years that ended in a loss.

In the vault right now:
$84.2M
DEBT: $1.1B
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.
