First-pass take

Agriterra is a commodity agricultural business with zero AI exposure or technology initiatives. Operating leverage is negative: revenue fell 10% but operating loss surged 128%, driven by rising costs in maize procurement and beef operations. Loss-making with negative FCF. High leverage (net debt $13.8m vs equity $6.8m) and material going-concern uncertainty explicitly disclosed.
