What the filings flag
1%Return on invested capital.Return on invested capital is 1% and slipping from 55% — well below its ~9% cost of capital, so reinvested dollars may be destroying value, not building it.
$21MGoodwill impairments.Took $21M of goodwill writedowns across 2 year(s) (FY2023 ($2M), FY2025 ($19M)) — about 2% of net income over the span. Writedowns mean past acquisitions underperformed what was paid for them — worth weighing on capital-allocation skill.
