The company's outlook for the current fiscal year is for a 5.0% revenue contraction, with a 10.0% contraction expected in the next fiscal year. This is driven by reduced demand in the waste management and property development segments. Risk factors include liquidity constraints, with net cash being negative after subtracting total debt.
