The sharp improvement in profitability and gross margins, combined with a growing backlog and new financing, suggests operational momentum is building. Traders should monitor whether Q1 2026 revenue can sustain or exceed Q4 2025 levels, and whether gross margin expansion continues, as this could signal a durable turnaround.
