Tan Hooi Ling said the Softbank-backed private firm had seen an uptick in its food delivery business but its total revenue was “lower than it used to be pre-COVID”, referring to the respiratory disease caused by the virus.

An effective business model must generate revenues to cover operating costs in the foreseeable future.

Financial distress occurs when cash flow is insufficient to meet current liability obligations. Alleviating financial distress usually required restructuring operations and assets or restructuring loan interest and scheduled principal paymenta. Most of a venture;s value is achieved in the form of free cash flows generated during the latter part of the venture;s rapid growth stage and during the maturity stage.
