New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 65% 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 Negative equity (-US$56m). Earnings have declined by 15% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (65% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (CA$35.2m market cap, or US$24.9m).

New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: CA$10.8m (US$7.86m) This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (21% average weekly change). Negative equity (-US$27m). Earnings have declined by 27% per year over the past 5 years. Market cap is less than US$10m (CA$10.8m market cap, or US$7.86m). Aankondiging • Feb 18

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: CA$558k 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 Negative equity (-US$3.6m). Earnings have declined by 47% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (15% average weekly change). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (CA$558k sold).

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 47% 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 Negative equity (-US$3.6m). Earnings have declined by 47% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$100m (CA$28.6m market cap, or US$20.0m). Reported Earnings • Dec 01
