With better inventory planning and healthier cash flows, operations were sustained smoothly without additional debt.

He further noted that the company enters the second half of the year with a focus on expanding margins, strengthening its global presence and building on the positive momentum in exports. Significant new orders from key overseas markets, including Brazil and Venezuela, have enhanced visibility for upcoming quarters.
