New Risk • Mar 05
New minor risk - Revenue size The company makes less than US$5m in revenue. Total revenue: NT$159m (US$5.0m) This is considered a minor risk. Companies with a small amount of revenue 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 Risks Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 273% Dividend per share is over 5x cash flows per share. Earnings have declined by 51% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (58% net profit margin). Revenue is less than US$5m (NT$159m revenue, or US$5.0m). Upcoming Dividend • Feb 16

New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 203% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses.
