However, the same-ticker history shows two prior buys on 2025-11-18 and 2025-11-17 with outcomes not yet measurable, and the TIMING PATTERN shows 0 of 0 prior buys were well-timed at the 90-day mark. Fundamentally, the company reported net income of $-5,299,000.00 for the latest quarter and was unprofitable over its most recent full fiscal year, despite annual revenue growth of 10.0%.
