What today's price needs: with a 6% margin and a 13x P/E, sales could shrink about 5.6% a year for 5 years and still match today's price.

Simple math on your guesses, not a forecast or a price target. Real results depend on many things these sliders leave out.

Insider rating

45Mixed

Pre-planned sales of $1.4M (weaker signal)

50 is neutral. Buying by more insiders, top executives and bigger stakes raises it. Selling lowers it; pre-planned sales count less.
