1) Brief Summary: The company has experienced a significant downturn in performance over the past month (-37.68%) and quarter (-62.2%), with a decreasing sales year over year (-0.55%). The average volume of 107.90K and a relative volume of 0.77 indicate moderate trading activity. The company has a high short interest of 1.07M and a short ratio of 9.91, indicating a high level of bearish sentiment in the market. The market capitalization is relatively low at 33.41M, suggesting it is a smaller company. The company's performance is below its 20, 50, and 200-day simple moving averages which indicates a strong downward trend. The insider transactions suggest that insiders are selling their shares, but these sales are for tax payments rather than discretionary trades. The company's financials show a negative equity, indicating that the company has more liabilities than assets, which is a concerning sign. 2) MARKET_SCORE: Considering the negative performance and financials, the likelihood of an upward move in the short term seems low. MARKET_SCORE: 20

3) PRICE_TARGET: Given the current price of $4.04 and the negative trend, it's challenging to predict a higher price target in the short term. However, if the company can turn around its performance, a moderate increase may be possible. PRICE_TARGET: $4.50
