- Management guidance on whether Q1 profitability reflected sustainable operating improvement or favorable base/pricing effects.
- Management is likely to emphasize capacity utilization, value-added textiles and cost-control initiatives to sustain margins.
- The company may prioritize debt reduction, working-capital discipline and selective modernization spending rather than aggressive capacity expansion.
