The market environment remains challenging, particularly in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), with continued pricing pressure.
Free cash flow turned negative at EUR -16.4 million, worse than the prior year's -EUR 10.6 million, due to seasonal working capital effects.
Net debt increased to EUR 148 million from year-end, with the debt coverage ratio at 1.64.
