Leverage ReductionMaterial debt reduction in 2025 meaningfully lowers financial risk and interest burden, improving the firm's flexibility to allocate cash to operations, capex or further deleveraging. Over 2-6 months this can stabilize funding costs and reduce default/ refinancing pressure, supporting operational recovery if revenue stabilizes.
Cash-flow ReboundReturn to positive operating and free cash flow in 2025 signals the business can generate internal funds again, enabling reinvestment in maintenance or efficiency, modest debt paydown, and reduced reliance on external financing. If sustained, this improves long-term solvency and capacity to fund working capital.
