However, the stock has experienced a year-to-date decline of 55.78%, and its RSI is at 45.808, indicating it is neither overbought nor oversold. The main risk is the company's ongoing challenges with same-store sales, which have declined for five consecutive quarters, reflecting pressures on consumer spending.
