However, the company faced a significant €4 billion cash outflow and continued losses in Europe, highlighting ongoing challenges in CEO Antonio Filosa’s restructuring efforts. While key markets show signs of stabilization, the broader turnaround strategy remains incomplete amid persistent financial pressures. The mixed results underscore the delicate balance between regional gains and deeper operational hurdles.
