Profitability is a real strength here, with healthy operating margins helping support resilience through weaker cycles.
Valuation looks more grounded than many growth names, which can improve the risk/reward if fundamentals hold up.
Balance-sheet leverage is elevated, so investors should watch refinancing costs and how much flexibility management really has.
