Key risks (from latest filing)
["Narrow operating margins and recent unprofitability: Q1 FY2026 net loss of $1.5M despite $731M in revenue, with interest expenses rising and operating leverage under pressure from rising debt levels.","Elevated debt burden with $296.9M long-term debt plus $316.7M in finance lease liabilities, creating significant refinancing and covenant risk in a higher interest rate environment.","Exposure to residential and commercial construction cycles, which are sensitive to macroeconomic conditions, housing starts, and lending rates; recent revenue growth of only 1.38% YoY signals demand softness."]
