Advice wanted re: Predicta "Barber Pole" Cabinet Reinforcement

Is the wood rotted or water damaged?

If it's just loose you should be able to glue & clamp it back together.

It's water damaged. The ply layers are trying to separate. I did glue the worst spot back together and it does (surprisingly) seem to be holding, but the sag still bothers me.
