The persistent pattern of earnings misses and negative EPS surprises suggests ongoing operational challenges. Traders should monitor the upcoming Q1 FY2027 earnings release on September 2, 2026, for any signs of a turnaround or further deterioration. The stock may face continued downward pressure given the lack of positive catalysts.
