Management expects Adjusted Revenue growth to accelerate to double digits in the next quarter and the Adjusted EBITDA losses to also come down meaningfully. Reduction in losses will be driven by improvement in the contribution margin of the food delivery business and operating leverage as revenue is growing faster than fixed costs. The business has enough cash to fulfil all growth plans and has no need/plan to raise capital at this point.
