Monitor for further updates on LSP turbine repair/replacement timeline and any production guidance revisions. The interim operating arrangements are a positive near-term fix, but the lack of a definitive restoration date keeps operational risk elevated. Watch for potential impact on Q3 2026 shipments and cost guidance.
