High Leverage & Negative Free Cash FlowElevated absolute debt and deeply negative free cash flow mean the business remains dependent on external financing to fund growth and capex. Interest and covenant exposure reduce flexibility, heighten dilution/refinancing risk, and amplify downside if operating ramps slip or margins compress.
Supply-chain & Long Lead TimesExtended equipment lead times can delay energization of contracted capacity, shifting revenue and EBITDA recognition across quarters and years. Dependence on constrained suppliers raises execution risk, can inflate capex/timing costs, and complicates guaranteed-service delivery to customers.
Customer Concentration & Contract TimingConcentration with a few large counterparties increases revenue and cashflow vulnerability if one customer slows or renegotiates. Combined with complex, time-consuming contract negotiations, this raises timing uncertainty for when contracted capacity actually converts to steady, predictable cash generation.
