Recent capital allocation decisions, coupled with a focus on operational efficiency, suggest a trajectory that could sustain the current upside. Analysts project that the 200‑day moving average at €9.91 will serve as a key support level, while the 52‑week high of €14.45 indicates a potential upside buffer should macro‑economic conditions remain favorable.
