  "investment_thesis": "Given the significant decline in profitability and earnings per share, retail investors should consider selling KAPCO shares. The decrease in revenue and the presence of a gross loss indicate underlying business challenges. While the company has other income streams, these are not sufficient to offset the decline in core operational performance. The reduced dividend payout also makes the stock less attractive for income-seeking investors. A 'SELL' recommendation is based on the potential for further price decline due to these factors.",
