Current thesis
The constructive read is that Q1 showed sequential EBITDA improvement, better plant productivity and cash conversion, while management still reaffirmed full-year revenue, EBITDA and free-cash-flow guidance. If May 12 results show another sequential EBITDA step-up with stable liquidity, sentiment could improve from a monitoring stance.
