Increase in shares outstanding: 37% This is considered a major 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 Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (18% average weekly change).

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.

Following positive results, Dole has decided to extend and expand the collaboration to further explore the potential of OptiCept's technology platforms. The focus is now on optimizing the drying process for pineapples. During the initial 14-day pilot period, OptiCept achieved the project goals. The treatment resulted in improved texture in pineapple products, making them more appealing to new markets with high-quality standards. At the same time, an evaluation of the drying process showed significantly increased efficiency through reduced drying times. As a result, Dole wants to conduct further tests to fully map the commercial benefits of PEF (Pulsed Electric Field) technology in the pineapple drying process. The project is therefore entering a commercial phase. Thailand is a globally significant producer of pineapples, with an annual production of approximately 1.2 million tons, placing the country among the top five producers worldwide. Asia is also the world's largest region in terms of both production and consumption of pineapples, making the Thai market a strategic priority for OptiCept.Major Estimate Revision • Oct 25Consensus revenue estimates decrease by 27%, EPS upgradedThe consensus outlook for fiscal year 2024 has been updated. 2024 revenue forecast fell from kr35.6m to kr26.0m.

It is more volatile than 90% of Swedish stocks, typically moving 13% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility 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. 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 Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change). Revenue is less than US$1m (kr10.0m revenue, or US$969k). Market cap is less than US$10m (kr84.4m market cap, or US$8.20m). Minor Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on current free cash flow (-kr96m). Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (kr23m net loss in 3 years).

The root of Acacia cuttings improved by 12-33% depending on the type of Acacia treated. In May 2023, OptiCept Technologies entered an agreement with Guangxi Shichen Group ("GSG"), in collaboration with the Chinese state research institute Guangxi Academy of Forestry, to evaluate the OptiBoost technology on several different types of cuttings to improve its rooting. Acacia cuttings treated with the patented vacuum impregnation technology show an average improved rooting of 12-33% after 45 days, with the final assessment made after 90 days. Results from the evaluation of Camelia will be available in 2024 when tests for Eucalyptus also will be carried out. Acacia is a large genus with many species. Cultivation of Acacia is particularly common in China, Southeast Asia, South America, Africa, and in Australia, where Acacia forest is the second most common forest type after Eucalyptus forest. Acacia is one of the most cultivated trees in the southern hemisphere and is a fast-growing species that can grow in harsh conditions that other species cannot, which can quickly generate yields.お知らせ • Nov 30+ 2 more updatesOptiCept Technologies AB (publ) to Report Fiscal Year 2023 Results on Feb 27, 2024OptiCept Technologies AB (publ) announced that they will report fiscal year 2023 results on Feb 27, 2024Reported Earnings • Nov 30Third quarter 2023 earnings released: kr0.67 loss per share (vs kr1.09 loss in 3Q 2022)Third quarter 2023 results: kr0.67 loss per share (improved from kr1.09 loss in 3Q 2022).

Market cap: kr110.5m (US$9.95m) 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (18% average weekly change). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (61% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (kr10m revenue, or US$925k).

New Risk • Jun 05New major risk - Shareholder dilutionThe company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 37% This is considered a major 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 Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (18% average weekly change). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (37% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on current free cash flow (-kr49m).

New Risk • Jun 02New major risk - Revenue and earnings growthEarnings have declined by 9.3% 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 Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-kr49m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 9.3% per year over the past 5 years.

お知らせ • Nov 27OptiCept Technologies AB (publ) Expands Project with Dole in ThailandOptiCept has successfully completed its project with Dole in Thailand, which was announced in the spring of 2024. Following positive results, Dole has decided to extend and expand the collaboration to further explore the potential of OptiCept's technology platforms. The focus is now on optimizing the drying process for pineapples. During the initial 14-day pilot period, OptiCept achieved the project goals. The treatment resulted in improved texture in pineapple products, making them more appealing to new markets with high-quality standards. At the same time, an evaluation of the drying process showed significantly increased efficiency through reduced drying times. As a result, Dole wants to conduct further tests to fully map the commercial benefits of PEF (Pulsed Electric Field) technology in the pineapple drying process. The project is therefore entering a commercial phase. Thailand is a globally significant producer of pineapples, with an annual production of approximately 1.2 million tons, placing the country among the top five producers worldwide. Asia is also the world's largest region in terms of both production and consumption of pineapples, making the Thai market a strategic priority for OptiCept.

It is more volatile than 90% of Swedish stocks, typically moving 13% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility 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. 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 Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change). Revenue is less than US$1m (kr10.0m revenue, or US$969k). Market cap is less than US$10m (kr84.4m market cap, or US$8.20m). Minor Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on current free cash flow (-kr96m). Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (kr23m net loss in 3 years).

New Risk • Oct 24New major risk - Market cap sizeThe company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: kr110.5m (US$9.95m) 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (18% average weekly change). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (61% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (kr10m revenue, or US$925k).
