Fundraise plans

- There is no specific mention of any current or future fundraising through debt or equity in the transcript. - The management did not declare any new expansion or major capital expenditure plans that would require new funding at this moment. - They indicated that while certain modernization and replacement CAPEX will continue yearly at a smaller scale, no large-scale expansion CAPEX like earlier will be undertaken unless the market demand improves. - On potential expansion or investments, the management said that if any major projects or investments requiring significant CAPEX are finalized or approved, they would announce them transparently. - No acquisitions of stressed assets or companies are currently planned, hence no immediate need for fund raising linked to such activities. In summary, as of now, there appear to be no announced plans for fundraising through debt or equity.
