Outlook and guidance
Management expects Q4 to improve as peak-season volumes combine with better product economics and production capacity already in place.
2027 is expected to deliver the first full-year benefit from in-house production, without the major production move, product development, and integration work that weighed on H1 2026.
Q4 priorities include scaling sales and turning inventory built for peak season into sales and cash flow.
