The score is held back primarily by weak TTM cash generation and negative free cash flow versus reported earnings, despite improved leverage and solid reported profitability. Offsetting this, the latest earnings call supported confidence via reaffirmed FY2026 EBITDA/FCF guidance, cost optimization progress, and strong capital returns, while technicals and valuation appear moderately supportive but not decisive.
