SMRT experienced substantially deteriorating operating performance with losses roughly doubling while cash position declined significantly and customer count decreased.
The company's operating losses expanded meaningfully while customer count dropped from over 650 to approximately 600, indicating potential market share erosion or customer churn issues.
