Alstom, a leading French train manufacturer, experienced a significant decline in its stock value, dropping nearly 30% to €16.13 on the Paris stock exchange. This decline follows the company's announcement of delivery delays attributed to 'execution headwinds,' which have hindered progress on large rolling-stock projects. While Alstom reported a 4% increase in sales for the financial year ending in March, its operating margins fell to approximately 6%. The company revealed that its free cash flow had decreased to around €330 million, down from €502 million the previous year, and it would not achieve its goal of a total cash flow of €1.5 billion by March 2027. Furthermore, profit margins are not expected to improve to the previously projected 8-10% next year, prompting immediate actions to stabilize performance and initiate deeper operational changes.
