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 Risk Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (2.8x net interest cover). Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (3.0% net profit margin).
