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: US$58k 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 8.9% per year for the foreseeable future. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (83% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (US$145m net loss in 3 years). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (US$58k sold). New Risk • May 28
New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 83% 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 Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 8.9% per year for the foreseeable future. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (83% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (US$145m net loss in 3 years). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change).
