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 American stocks, typically moving 15% 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 Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (15% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$10m (US$8.45m market cap). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable next year (US$8.4m net loss next year). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (2.5% increase in shares outstanding). New Risk • Jun 22
New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: US$9.95m 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 Risk Market cap is less than US$10m (US$9.95m market cap). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable next year (US$8.4m net loss next year). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (2.5% increase in shares outstanding). Major Estimate Revision • May 24
