6 risk signal(s), 1 positive signal(s), 1 watch item(s) detected from XBRL filing diff analysis. Revenue grew -3.3% but receivables grew +7.5% — the receivables-to-revenue gap suggests growth may be partially driven by extended credit terms rather than genuine demand. If DSO continues to rise, a revenue reversal or bad-debt charge could follow.

  • Receivables outpacing revenue: Accounts receivable grew +7.5% YoY vs revenue growth of -3.3%. The +10.9% spread suggests extended credit terms, channel stuffing risk, or collection deterioration. Investigate the allowance for doubtful accounts and DSO trend.
  • Earnings-cash flow divergence: Net income grew +60.3% while operating cash flow declined -5.2%. This divergence may indicate accrual-based earnings inflation — non-cash gains, aggressive revenue recognition, or working capital absorption. The accrual ratio (NI − OCF) is deteriorating.
  • NEW: Going concern doubt in latest filing: The term "going concern" appears in recent 10-K/10-Q filings but was NOT present in the prior 24-month period. This is a new risk disclosure that warrants attention. Found in 3 filing(s).
  • Material weakness in internal controls: The term "material weakness" appears in 22 recent filing(s) (vs 2 in the prior period). This risk language is ongoing.
  • NEW: Substantial doubt about ability to continue in latest filing: The term "substantial doubt" "ability to continue" appears in recent 10-K/10-Q filings but was NOT present in the prior 24-month period. This is a new risk disclosure that warrants attention. Found in 1 filing(s).
  • Restatement of financial statements: The term "restate" "financial statements" appears in 19 recent filing(s) (vs 2 in the prior period). This risk language is ongoing.
  • Endogenous analysis: Revenue grew -3.3% but receivables grew +7.5% — the receivables-to-revenue gap suggests growth may be partially driven by extended credit terms rather than genuine demand. If DSO continues to rise, a revenue reversal or bad-debt charge could follow.
  • Endogenous analysis: "Material weakness in internal controls" combined with earnings-cash flow divergence is especially concerning — it suggests the reported earnings may not be reliable due to control deficiencies, and the cash flow shortfall may be masking underlying issues.
  • 1 new XBRL disclosure(s) in latest filing — expanding reporting scope.
  • 20 disclosure(s) dropped from prior year — reduced reporting granularity.
  • 3 new risk-language term(s) detected in filing text: Going concern doubt, Substantial doubt about ability to continue, Off-balance sheet arrangements.
  • Ongoing high-severity risk language: Material weakness in internal controls, Restatement of financial statements.
