WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME FROM?

Action SportOutdoor Accessories 37%
63% of all revenue comes from a single line: Action Sport.

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

Revenue last year:
$2.7B
The loss that same year:
$5.5M
Sales don’t cover the costs; the gap drains from the cash pile every year.

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.

At this burn rate the cash pile isn’t the pressing question — for now, time is on the company’s side.
