New Risk • May 22
New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: HK$779.4m (US$99.5m) This is considered a minor risk.

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 Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (15% net profit margin). Market cap is less than US$100m (HK$779.4m market cap, or US$99.5m). Annuncio • Apr 15

Edvantage Group Holdings Limited to Report Fiscal Year 2024 Results on Nov 29, 2024 Edvantage Group Holdings Limited announced that they will report fiscal year 2024 results on Nov 29, 2024 New Risk • Nov 09
New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 3.2% 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. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Valuation Update With 7 Day Price Move • Sep 30
