Despite trading at 40.5% below its estimated fair value and expecting robust revenue growth of 12.1% per year against a market average of 5.3%, challenges persist, notably a decline in profit margins from 16.3% to 7.9%, and insufficient coverage of interest payments by earnings, which raises concerns about financial health in the short term.
