New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 44% This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 28% per year for the foreseeable future.

OSL Group Limited Provides consolidated Earnings Guidance for the Year Ended 31 December 2025 OSL Group Limited provided consolidated earnings guidance for the year ended 31 December 2025. For the year, the company expects to record net loss from continuing operations for FY2025 ranging from HKD 370 million to HKD 430 million, as compared to a profit from continuing operations of approximately HKD 55 million for the year ended 31 December 2024 (the ``FY2024''), as the Group made essential investment to lay a robust foundation for future growth. Despite the anticipated net loss, the Group's business continues to demonstrate robust momentum: (i) Income from digital assets and blockchain platform business (``IFRS income'') is expected to range from HKD 450 million to HKD 530 million for FY2025, representing an increase of 20.0% to 41.3% as compared to IFRS income of approximately HKD 375 million in FY2024; and (ii) Our adjusted income from digital assets and blockchain platform business (``adjusted non-IFRS income'')1 is expected to range from HKD 490 million to HKD 570 million for FY2025, representing a substantial increase of 129.0% to 166.4% as compared to adjusted non-IFRS income of approximately HKD 214 million in FY2024, reflecting sustained growth in the Group's core business activities.
The Board considers that relative to the profit recorded in FY2024, the Group's financial performance in FY2025 was primarily impacted by the following factors: (i) Continued investment in strategic global expansion, including staff hiring, IT infrastructure build-out, and other operating expenditures to establish and scale global operational capabilities. While the incremental costs from these investments are expected to be approximately HKD 400 million to HKD 440 million higher than FY2024, these outlays have delivered tangible results, which materially expanding global footprint and product offering and driving the Group's year-on-year growth of over 100% in adjusted non-IFRS income; (ii) Driven by the prevailing downward trend in digital asset prices during the fourth quarter of 2025, a non-cash net fair value loss from remeasurement of digital assets held for trading purposes by the Group is expected to be approximately HKD 40 million to HKD 50 million in FY2025, as compared to a net fair value gain of HKD161 million in FY2024; In addition, a non-cash net fair value loss from revaluation of digital assets held for long-term capital appreciation is also expected to be approximately HKD 40 million to HKD 0 million in FY2025.
(iii) One-off professional service fees and related expenses incurred for strategic M&A activities and global license applications, are expected to be approximately HKD 30 million to HKD 40 million in FY2025. New Risk • Jan 21

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 28% per year for the foreseeable future.

New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 59% This is considered a major risk. Non-cash earnings can arise from many different things. However, if a company consistently has a high level of non-cash earnings, it may be a sign that they are recognizing revenue from customers before the full value of the sales are received as cash or they are not depreciating the value of their assets appropriately. These are practices that inflate earnings, while not providing a similar increase to cash flows. Companies in some select industries naturally have a high level of non-cash earnings and it is not a major concern. However, in the worst case scenario it can be an early sign of performance manipulation by management. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk High level of non-cash earnings (59% accrual ratio). Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (19% increase in shares outstanding). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (HK$5.1m sold). Announcement • Sep 09

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 2.1% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 2.1% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (43% increase in shares outstanding).

New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Hong Kong stocks, typically moving 14% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change). Minor Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on current free cash flow (-HK$686m). Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (HK$38m net loss in 2 years).

With less than a year's worth of cash, the company will need to raise capital or take on debt unless its cash flows improve. This would dilute existing shareholders or increase balance sheet risk.

New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: HK$34m This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (20% average weekly change). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (HK$83m net loss in 2 years).

OSL Reportedly Weighs Sale At HKD 1 Billion Valuation BC Technology Group Limited (SEHK:863) is exploring the sale of its crypto platform OSL, one of only two exchanges licensed under digital-asset rules the city introduced in June, people familiar with the matter said. BC Technology has gauged interest in OSL from possible buyers such as industry players and funds, and a HKD 1 billion ($128 million) valuation has been mooted, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing private information. Shares of BC Technology slumped as much as 16.7% in early Tuesday trading in Hong Kong, the biggest decline since June 12, following the Bloomberg News report. OSL's platform spans prime brokerage, exchange and custody services for crypto markets as well as a business providing infrastructure to financial institutions so that they can offer virtual-asset trading. BC Technology may decide to sell parts of OSL rather than the whole business, the people said. Deliberations are ongoing and there's no guarantee they will result in a deal, the people said. "We are a highly transparent and regulated company," a representative of BC Technology said in response to a Bloomberg News query. "We do not comment on market rumors and speculations." Hong Kong rolled out a digital-asset rulebook on June 1 that aims to foster a hub for the sector and allows retail investors to trade larger tokens on licensed exchanges. But crypto demand remains weak after last year's market rout and ensuing bankruptcies, while the city's strict framework may entail higher costs. Hong Kong is also grappling with the fallout of the blowup at the unlicensed JPEX exchange, a scandal that further tarnished the digital-asset industry. Reported Earnings • Sep 20

New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: HK$710.3m (US$90.8m) This is considered a minor risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (HK$4.0m net loss in 3 years). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (11% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (3.6% increase in shares outstanding).
