United States Fiscal year ends December CIK 0001627475
$8.60 +0.35% Close, 9 Oct 2026
Price $8.60 −84.39% Close, 9 Oct 2026

Closing prices at the end of each trading day, from 3 Oct 2018. Not a live quote. Adjusted for share splits, so the line has no step at a split; dividends are not added back. P/E and P/FCF are the market value over the last full fiscal year's net income or free cash flow, as public on each day, so they step once a year when the annual report comes out. A hatched band marks a stretch with none: a year of net loss, or of cash burnt.
