New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 252% This is considered a major risk.

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 Shares are highly illiquid. High level of non-cash earnings (104% accrual ratio). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (252% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risks Revenue is less than US$5m (₹353m revenue, or US$4.1m).

New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 106% This is considered a major risk. Non-cash earnings can arise from many different things. However, if a company consistently has a high level of non-cash earnings, it may be a sign that they are recognizing revenue from customers before the full value of the sales are received as cash or they are not depreciating the value of their assets appropriately. These are practices that inflate earnings, while not providing a similar increase to cash flows. Companies in some select industries naturally have a high level of non-cash earnings and it is not a major concern. However, in the worst case scenario it can be an early sign of performance manipulation by management. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Shares are highly illiquid. High level of non-cash earnings (106% accrual ratio). Market cap is less than US$10m (₹300.3m market cap, or US$3.60m). Valuation Update With 7 Day Price Move • Mar 08
