I'm leaning towards agreeing with Marica. The business unit seems to be in a growth phase, making it a Star.

I see where you're coming from, Katie. However, the high market share and revenue growth suggest it's definitely a Star.

Well, despite the market share, the declining market and increasing revenues suggest it's a risky investment.
