Elevated financial-distress risk Altman Z-score, a bankruptcy-risk model from five balance-sheet ratios.
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.
Insiders were net sellers (-$496K, 90 days to Oct 8, 2026), selling is often routine.
