Asset-light

Physical assets are 18.9% of total assets, a light footprint. Capex is 0.43x depreciation and free cash flow yield is weak, which fits a cash drain on aging assets. EBITDA after capex covers debt service by 0.08x, which is below 1.

Energy, materials, and industrial names often turn net PP&E at about 1x to 3x. This name is at 6.88x.
