  "account": "Despite having full order books, French train manufacturer Alstom has had to lower its forecast for the second time this year. For the current fiscal year, the group now expects only a net operating margin of around one percent, down from the 6.5 percent it had previously anticipated. The company announced this on Monday. The main issue is the \"Coradia Max\" series, which is also intended for use in Germany. Instead of generating a cash inflow, Alstom now expects a cash outflow of 1.5 billion euros from the Coradia Max line. The company now expects to produce around 4,000 vehicles for the current fiscal year, down from the previously planned 4,400 to 4,500 vehicles. However, the company's backlog of orders remains full. In the first half of the 2026/27 fiscal year, Alstom received 11.0 billion euros in orders, up from 10.5 billion euros in the same period last year. Investor reaction to the announcements was marked by a sharp sell-off on the stock market. The Alstom stock fell more than 28 percent on Monday morning and hit its lowest level in 52 weeks.",
