New major risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 95% Cash payout ratio: 91% Dividend yield: 4.3% This is considered a major risk.

If earnings or cash flows stagnate or fall, then there may not be enough to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to dig into capital reserves or take on debt to maintain the dividend. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 95% Cash payout ratio: 91% Earnings have declined by 3.5% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results.

One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods.

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 Short dividend paying track record (1 year of continuous dividend payments).

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 12% This is considered a minor 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 Risk No financial data reported. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (6.1% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (12% increase in shares outstanding). New Risk • Nov 23
New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of Taiwanese stocks, typically moving 5.6% a week.

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk No financial data reported. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (5.6% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$100m (NT$2.45b market cap, or US$77.6m).
