- The company is well-positioned for future growth with a strong focus on securing the 190-kiloton exclusive project, which is progressing well.
- The company has successfully returned to original covenant levels under its financing documentation, reflecting improved financial stability.
- The market faces a difficult period in 2027-2028 due to project delays and slow FID taking, leading to a thin order book.
