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 Pakistani stocks, typically moving 8.4% a week.

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 Risk Market cap is less than US$10m (PK₨1.45b market cap, or US$5.18m). Minor Risks Unstable dividend paying track record with dividend experiencing an annual drop of over 20% in the past. Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (8.4% average weekly change).

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Market cap is less than US$10m (PK₨1.39b market cap, or US$4.98m).

New minor risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by cash flows. The company is paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Dividend yield: 3.1% This is considered a minor risk. Dividends are ultimately paid out of the company's available cash reserves. Companies that pay out too much of their cash flow are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If cash flow growth slows or cash flows fall, then there may not be enough cash reserves to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to take on debt to maintain the dividend. This risk is mitigated by the fact the dividend is covered by earnings, however, cash flows are generally more important. 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 Risks High level of non-cash earnings (64% accrual ratio). Market cap is less than US$10m (PK₨2.34b market cap, or US$8.33m). Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows.

Sustainability & Growth Dividend is covered by earnings (21% earnings payout ratio) but the company has no free cash flows available, indicating it may be using cash reserves or debt to pay the dividend. The dividend has decreased over the past 10 years, indicating a lack of growth and stability in payments. Earnings per share has grown by 83% over the last 5 years. Unless this trend reverses, it should provide support to the dividend and adequate earnings cover. Annuncio • Oct 02

New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: PK₨2.79b (US$9.79m) This is considered a major 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.

New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 54% 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 High level of non-cash earnings (54% accrual ratio). Market cap is less than US$10m (PK₨1.20b market cap, or US$4.26m). Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows.
