That much dependence is a risk in itself: if this one line weakens, the whole company feels it directly.
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 31% a year over the last 4 years — the most striking risk in this picture. Red columns mark years that ended in a loss.

We compared this company with its own sector across five subjects.
A score of 50 means class average.
Profit indicators sit around the sector average.
A solid grade overall — yet the debt outweighs the cash. The strength here comes from earnings power.
Clearly above the class average — a step short of the very top.
Clearly below the class average.
Clearly below the class average.
Growth: Sales growth trails the sector average.
Price Momentum: The stock has lagged the market in recent months; investor interest is weak right now.
The stock trades 21% below its peak. The market has trimmed its expectations for the company.
It pays out $10.41 per share each year — regular cash for whoever holds the stock.
A loss of $6.2M against $1.2B in annual sales. And on top of that, sales fell from the year before.
The stock trades 26% above the average analyst price target.

The takeaway: TDS’s sales are going backwards, and it closed last year at a loss. The road back runs through both.
The total grade weighs these five subjects against the sector — it isn’t a simple average of the five.
