New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 81% This is considered a major risk. Non-cash earnings can arise from many different things. However, if a company consistently has a high level of non-cash earnings, it may be a sign that they are recognizing revenue from customers before the full value of the sales are received as cash or they are not depreciating the value of their assets appropriately. These are practices that inflate earnings, while not providing a similar increase to cash flows. Companies in some select industries naturally have a high level of non-cash earnings and it is not a major concern. However, in the worst case scenario it can be an early sign of performance manipulation by management. 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). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change). High level of non-cash earnings (81% accrual ratio). Market cap is less than US$10m (€3.88m market cap, or US$4.20m). Minor Risk Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (43% increase in shares outstanding). New Risk • Feb 22
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. If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. 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). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$10m (€4.29m market cap, or US$4.66m). Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (43% increase in shares outstanding). Aankondiging • Feb 22

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Revenue has declined by 1.9% over the past year. 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 revenues are declining, then it is difficult for the company to prevent its earnings from declining as well. A trend of falling revenue 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 (-UK£531k). Revenue has declined by 1.9% over the past year. Market cap is less than US$10m (€3.91m market cap, or US$4.27m). Minor Risks Latest financial reports are more than 6 months old (reported November 2022 fiscal period end).

New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of German stocks, typically moving 9.7% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Negative equity (-UK£531k). Market cap is less than US$10m (€4.84m market cap, or US$5.25m). Minor Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on current free cash flow (-UK£3.3m). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (9.7% average weekly change).
