New major risk - Financial position The company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Operating cash flow to total debt ratio: 20% 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 (20% operating cash flow to total debt). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (11% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 68% per year over the past 5 years. Market cap is less than US$10m (zł10.1m market cap, or US$2.76m). Minor Risk Unstable dividend paying track record with dividend experiencing an annual drop of over 20% in the past.

New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Polish stocks, typically moving 11% a week.

It may also indicate 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (20% operating cash flow to total debt).

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (0.2x net interest cover). Earnings have declined by 3.7% per year over the past 5 years. Market cap is less than US$10m (zł29.5m market cap, or US$7.98m).

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of Polish stocks, typically moving 7.5% a week.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 3.7% 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 Earnings have declined by 3.7% per year over the past 5 years. Market cap is less than US$10m (zł31.7m market cap, or US$8.28m). Minor Risks High level of debt (98% net debt to equity). Paying a dividend despite being loss-making. Reported Earnings • Feb 19

Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has fallen by 49% per year but the company’s share price has only fallen by 8% per year, which means it has not declined as severely as earnings. New Risk • Nov 08
New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Polish stocks, typically moving 8.6% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility 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. It may also indicate 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (0.5x net interest cover). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (8.6% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$10m (zł38.9m market cap, or US$9.74m).

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.

New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: zł37.4m (US$9.62m) 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 Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (0.5x net interest cover).

A large drop in profit margin could indicate the company does not have strong competitive advantages or it is yet to establish itself and its core business. Even if it is a well established business, this may make it a much riskier investment than one that has a combination of proven competitive advantages and a stable or growing profit margin. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (0.4x net interest cover). Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (0.7% net profit margin).
