Looking ahead, the company is expected to see a decline in revenue, with a negative outlook for the current fiscal year. The operating cash flow of 136.01 million KRW is insufficient to cover capital expenditures, suggesting a need for external financing or asset sales to fund operations [doc:financial_snapshot]. The risk assessment highlights a medium liquidity risk and a low dilution risk. The company has not disclosed any imminent share issuance plans, and the diluted shares outstanding are equal to the basic shares, indicating no near-term dilution pressure [doc:risk_assessment]. However, the negative free cash flow and high capital expenditures may necessitate future financing, which could introduce dilution risk.
