Primary Support: $20.64 (Recent tested support level from July 10). A break below could target the 52-week low of $19.89.

Strong Resistance: $25.25 (Key resistance from July 10). A sustained break above is needed for a more significant trend reversal.

Immediate Pivot: $21.26 (Today's high & pre-market price). A close above this level is critical for confirming the bullish intraday reversal and targeting the next resistance.

Trades at a Forward P/E of 9.20, below its historical average of 10.22 and near the lower bound of its range. This suggests the stock is relatively undervalued from an earnings perspective.
