New major risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 93% Cash payout ratio: 117% Dividend yield: 6.0% This is considered a major risk. Companies that pay out too much of their earnings and cash flows are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. 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 Risk Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 93% Cash payout ratio: 117% Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (6.3% average weekly change).

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 Italian stocks, typically moving 5.8% a week. This is considered a minor risk.

It also 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.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 0.4% per year for the foreseeable future. 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.

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 0.4% per year for the foreseeable future.
