New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 1.9% per year for the foreseeable future. This is considered a major risk.

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 Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$29m free cash flow). Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Paying a dividend despite being loss-making. Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows.
