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 Malaysian stocks, typically moving 8.3% 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. 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (0.5x net interest cover). Earnings have declined by 19% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risk Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (8.3% average weekly change). Reported Earnings • Feb 26

New Risk • Aug 30
New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 1.5% 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 Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (currently running at an operating cash loss). Earnings have declined by 1.5% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risk Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (17% increase in shares outstanding). Reported Earnings • May 04

New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 291% 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (1.8x net interest cover). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 35% per year for the foreseeable future. Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results.

New Risk • Nov 24
New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 17% 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 Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (3.8% operating cash flow to total debt). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 1.9% per year for the foreseeable future. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (7.8% average weekly change).
