The AI's read
This points to improving customer demand and better control of costs. Planned savings and AI work could support that progress, though the savings are still a future target. French permanent hiring fell, staffing margins stayed steady, and payment timing hurt cash flow. Management expects cash flow to rebound in the fourth quarter. These concerns temper the report but do not erase its sales growth and expected margin improvement.
