Growth is positive but not explosive, which usually supports a steadier compounding case than a hyper-growth story.
Profitability is serviceable, but it does not obviously dominate peers on margin or cash conversion alone.

Balance-sheet leverage is elevated, so investors should watch refinancing costs and how much flexibility management really has.
