The dividend ratio is perfect for the shareholders who own the shares for long-term investment.
the total debt is fine we can see it increasing but in the long run, I believe It will not be a problem for the company.
the company performance Improved with the spread of the pandemic, still, I think the pandemic will increase in the coming period
