New Risk • Aug 06
New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: ₹8.61b (US$98.1m) 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: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 17% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Unstable dividend paying track record with dividend experiencing an annual drop of over 20% in the past. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (4.3% net profit margin). Market cap is less than US$100m (₹8.61b market cap, or US$98.1m). Declared Dividend • Jul 31
Dividend reduced to ₹3.00 Dividend of ₹3.00 is 65% lower than last year. Ex-date: 11th September 2025 Payment date: 17th October 2025 Dividend yield will be 1.9%, which is about the same as the industry average. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is well covered by both earnings (21% earnings payout ratio) and cash flows (17% cash payout ratio). The dividend has increased by an average of 7.2% per year over the past 10 years. However, payments have been volatile during that time. The company's earnings per share (EPS) would need to decline by 77% to shift the payout ratio to a potentially unsustainable range, which is more than the 18% EPS decline seen over the last 5 years.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 1.7% 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 1.7% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Dividend is not well covered by cash flows (204% cash payout ratio). Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (7.0% net profit margin). Reported Earnings • Aug 12
