Positive cash generation coexists with profit compression and shareholder distributions in a highly debt-funded, negative-equity structure.
Top-line recovery did not translate into comparable profit: revenue reached$879.3M in 2025 while net margin fell to1.9% , showing weaker economics beneath the sales rebound. Yet cash conversion held up better than earnings, with free cash flow of$53.4M exceeding net income of$17.1M ; the profit decline was therefore not mirrored by cash leaving the business at the same rate.
