New major risk - Financial position The company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Currently running at an operating cash loss. This is considered a major risk.

The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues.

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). Shares are highly illiquid. Negative equity (-US$686k). Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (US$80.3m market cap). Board Change • Feb 17
