New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 42% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (currently running at an operating cash loss). Negative equity (-US$13m). Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Less than 3 years of financial data is available. Large one-off items impacting financial results. Board Change • Feb 28
