Persistent Negative Operating And Free Cash FlowDespite accounting profitability, continued negative operating cash flow (-945m yen) and negative free cash flow signal the company struggles to convert earnings into cash. This undermines long-term funding of operations, increases reliance on external financing and raises liquidity risk over several quarters.
Volatile Historical EBIT/EBITDA MarginsDocumented volatility in EBIT and EBITDA margins reduces predictability of operating performance and cash generation. Margin swings complicate budgeting, weaken confidence in sustainable profitability, and can amplify capital allocation mistakes during expansion phases over the medium term.
Balance Sheet Fluctuations In Assets/liabilitiesObserved swings in total assets and liabilities point to working-capital or accounting variability (receivables, payables, deferred revenue). Such balance-sheet volatility can strain liquidity management, exacerbate cash-flow shortfalls, and increase execution risk while scaling commercial operations.
