Flex10-Q: Cash flow concern

Free cash flow plummeted 85% YoY to $41M from $268M

What happened

Free cash flow dropped by 85% year-over-year, a significant liquidity event driven by higher capital expenditures, acquisition activity, and spin-off related costs. This sharp decline puts pressure on the finance team to optimize working capital, manage expenses, and improve cash generation efficiency.
