Profitability Concerns: K+S is currently unprofitable, and analysts typically look for strong revenue growth in such companies. The ongoing revenue decline raises questions about the company's ability to achieve profitability in the future.

Total Shareholder Return (TSR): The total shareholder return for K+S over the last three years is -42%, which is worse than the share price return, primarily due to dividend payments. Investors faced a total loss of 1.7% in the past year, contrasting with a market gain of 14%.
