Diagnosed the marketing overspend behind two months of negative EBITDA in the US subsidiary, using a budget-vs-actual tracking model built across three legal entities; margin improved by 2 percentage points over the period. Constructed a monthly multi-entity cash-flow model (>€10m in monthly flows) with sensitivity analysis, clarifying the cash impact of the group's intercompany raw-material recharge mechanism and informing the timing of transfers to subsidiaries. Built the 2026 entity-level P&L forecasts (US, UK, French holding) and consolidated them into a >€120m group budget, projecting cost trends across G&A, payroll and premises, and marketing spend as a % of revenue.
