Likely market impact

Although topline growth was healthy, sharp bottom-line decline and EBITDA margin compression (from ~3.4% to ~2.0%) point to cost pressure. The swing to negative operating cash flow and near-empty cash balance raise near-term liquidity concerns; investors should watch working-capital trends and whether the company can restore cash generation in H2.
