Hello,

If you don't set a fixed width value then the table grows to fit the content.

Please set widths for all cols of the first row:

$html = '<table>
            <tbody>
                <tr>
                    <td width="180">FY 1</td>
                    <td width="180">FY 2</td>
                    <td width="180">FY 3</td>
                    <td width="180">FY 4</td>
                    <td width="100">FY 5</td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td>Content A1</td>
                    <td>Content A2</td>
                    <td>Content A3</td>
                    <td>Content A4</td>
                    <td>Content A5</td>
                </tr>

Regards.
