The company's earnings per share (EPS) would need to decline by 38% to shift the payout ratio to a potentially unsustainable range, which is less than the 63% EPS decline seen over the last 3 years.

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 6.3% 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 Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (10% average weekly change). Revenue has declined by 31% over the past year. Minor Risks Latest financial reports are more than 6 months old (reported June 2023 fiscal period end).

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 5.4% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates 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 Revenue has declined by 31% over the past year. Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (5.4% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$100m (NT$3.04b market cap, or US$96.9m). New Risk • Feb 05
New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: NT$3.04b (US$96.9m) 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 Revenue has declined by 31% over the past year. Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Market cap is less than US$100m (NT$3.04b market cap, or US$96.9m). New Risk • Jun 19

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Revenue has declined by 5.1% over the past year. 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 revenues are declining, then it is difficult for the company to prevent its earnings from declining as well. A trend of falling revenue 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 Revenue has declined by 5.1% over the past year. Minor Risks Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (14% net profit margin). Market cap is less than US$100m (NT$2.49b market cap, or US$81.0m).
