New major risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 228% The company is paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Dividend yield: 2.7% This is considered a major risk. Companies that pay out too much of their earnings and cash flows are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If earnings or cash flows stagnate or fall, then there may not be enough to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to dig into capital reserves or take on debt to maintain the dividend. 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 Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 228% Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Earnings have declined by 30% per year over the past 5 years.

Ex-date: 7th May 2026 Payment date: 13th May 2026 Dividend yield will be 2.4%, which is lower than the industry average of 2.6%. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is not covered by earnings (149% earnings payout ratio). However, it is well covered by cash flows (20% cash payout ratio). The dividend has decreased over the past 10 years, indicating a lack of growth and stability in payments. The company's earnings per share (EPS) would need to grow by 66% to bring the payout ratio under control. However, EPS has declined by 32% over the last 5 years so the company would need to reverse this trend. お知らせ • Feb 28

New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: kr751k This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts.

A large drop in profit margin could indicate the company does not have strong competitive advantages or it is yet to establish itself and its core business.

The company's earnings per share (EPS) would need to decline by 42% to shift the payout ratio to a potentially unsustainable range, which is more than the 16% EPS decline seen over the last 5 years. お知らせ • Apr 10

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 23% 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 Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 91% Cash payout ratio: 95% Earnings have declined by 23% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (9.8% average weekly change).
