Economic mechanism
Causal chain, not certainty — each step carries the variable it moves
- 1
Order book increases
Demand Adds contracted revenue visibility
- 2
Execution spread across three years
Volume Revenue recognition is phased, not immediate
- 3
Utilisation of existing lines improves
Capacity Operating leverage benefit only if lines were underutilised
Counter-effect
Order value is not profit. Execution timelines, escalation clauses and input costs decide the realised margin.
Pricing power / pass-through: Moderate — Government contracts often carry price variation clauses.
