New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 2.3% This is considered a minor 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 Risk Earnings have declined by 48% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (2.3% increase in shares outstanding). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (€56k sold). Market cap is less than US$100m (€26.9m market cap, or US$28.3m). New Risk • Nov 10
New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 77% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk.

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 Risk Earnings have declined by 48% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (€92k sold). Market cap is less than US$100m (€27.3m market cap, or US$29.3m).
