New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Singaporean stocks, typically moving 14% a week.

It may also indicate 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (1.3x net interest cover). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$10m (S$12.0m market cap, or US$9.39m).
