Is it safe?

Watch

Solid, nothing alarming: clean books, but heavy debt (BB) and big price swings.

1 good, 2 to watch, 2 neutral, 1 without data
Honest booksLow risk

Reported earnings show no manipulation flags Beneish M-score, a forensic model that detects earnings-manipulation patterns (receivables outrunning sales, margins slipping, accrual-heavy profit).

Quality6 / 9

Mixed fundamental signals Piotroski F-score, nine pass/fail tests of year-over-year financial health across profitability, balance sheet and efficiency. 7 to 9 is strong, 0 to 3 weak.

Insider conviction-$33.9M

Insiders were net sellers (-$33.9M, 90 days to Oct 8, 2026), selling is often routine.

Credit gradeBBderived · Jun 30, 2026

Net cash, but unprofitable, speculative. A rule of thumb on leverage, not a credit rating.

Drawdown risk102% volderived · Oct 9, 2026

Large price swings, high volatility. Worst drawdown -96% · now 12% below its 52-week high.

Unless marked, from SEC EDGAR, as of Dec 31, 2025.

Where this answer is blind. Altman sits structurally low for utilities and pipelines; Beneish runs high for fast growers, since sales growth alone lifts it; banks and REITs are excluded.
