AI Insight: MAC Financial Trends
Total debt swelled 11% to $5.2B peak before modest pullback, while net losses persist and equity erodes steadily — leverage remains the dominant risk.
• Revenue grew modestly from $216M in Q2 2024 to $262M in Q4 2025, though Q1 2026 slipped back to $242M.
• Net income swung from a $252M gain in Q2 2024 to persistent losses, including -$211M in Q4 2024 and -$87M in Q3 2025.
• Total debt climbed from $4,373M in Q2 2024 to a peak of $5,232M in Q1 2025, easing to $4,851M in Q1 2026.
• Equity has declined from $2,756M in Q4 2024 to $2,438M in Q1 2026, a $318M erosion over three quarters.
⚠ Operating cash flow is volatile — ranging from $50M in Q4 2025 to $112M in Q3 2025 — making debt-service consistency hard to assess.
⚠ Debt reduction from $5,232M to $4,851M over two quarters is nascent; sustained deleveraging is unconfirmed.
⚠ Continued equity erosion alongside persistent net losses risks deteriorating book-value support for the debt load.
AI Insight: MAC Ratio Trends
MAC posts persistent net losses across seven consecutive quarters while leverage creeps toward 2.1x D/E, signaling ongoing balance-sheet stress.
• Net profit margin remained deeply negative from Q3 2024 through Q1 2026, ranging from -7.2% to -77.2%, with no sustained recovery.
• D/E ratio rose from 1.73 in Q3 2024 to 2.07 in Q4 2025, reflecting steadily increasing leverage over the period.
• Q4 2025 NPM of -7.2% and ROE of -3.1% were the least negative readings since Q2 2024's one-off gain, hinting at modest sequential improvement.
⚠ D/E at 2.07 in Q4 2025 is the highest in the dataset; any further rise tightens refinancing flexibility in a high-rate environment.
⚠ Q2 2024's 116.9% NPM appears to reflect a one-time gain; confirm whether asset sales or similar items recur to support cash flow.
⚠ ROA has not turned positive in any quarter since Q2 2024, suggesting assets are not generating sufficient returns to cover costs.
