Managing its cash flow. The company announced that it will be implementing cost reductions resulting in annualized savings of $60 million in fiscal year 2023. We have adjusted our quarterly estimates to reflect the current weaker than expected revenue outlook and significantly lower expenses. This report highlights our quarterly and full year 2023 and 2024 revenue and adj. EBITDA revisions.
A tough quarter ahead. We believe that the company’s fiscal second quarter will be somewhat similar to the first quarter, given that the cost reductions impact will largely fall in the fiscal second half. As such, we believe that adj. EBITDA trends will significantly improve in the back half of the fiscal year.
