The score is held down primarily by weak financial performance—unstable, small revenue; persistent losses; and ongoing cash burn with higher 2025 free cash flow outflows. Technical indicators provide some support with moderately positive near-term momentum, but valuation remains unattractive/unclear due to a loss-making (negative) P/E and no dividend yield.
