Investment thesis

Alvotech faces compounding headwinds — revenue declined more than 20% over the past year, free cash flow is negative, and the most recent earnings report missed estimates by nearly 29% — all while the stock trades in a confirmed long-term downtrend; absent a clear catalyst for operational stabilization, the risk/reward is unfavorable.
