Historical Cash-flow VolatilityPast episodes of large negative operating and free cash flow indicate the firm's cash generation can swing materially. That volatility weakens predictability of internal funding, may force episodic external financing in stress, and complicates planning for provisioning and capex.

If underlying collateral or borrower credit deteriorates, rapid growth could amplify losses and liquidity strain.

Such variability reduces certainty of margin sustainability and could pressure capital ratios in weaker cycles, affecting long-term planning.
