  • Long-term debt remains sizable (ranging around $1.5–1.8 billion across recent balances), and there is ongoing debt activity (repayments and occasional new issuances), contributing to a higher leverage profile.
  • Retained earnings have been negative across recent periods, signaling accumulated deficits in the equity base and raising questions about balance-sheet resilience during downturns.
