New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: AU$142.8m (US$99.9m) This is considered a minor 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 Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (2.6% operating cash flow to total debt). Earnings have declined by 18% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Unstable dividend paying track record with dividend experiencing an annual drop of over 20% in the past. Large one-off items impacting financial results. Market cap is less than US$100m (AU$142.8m market cap, or US$99.9m). Declared Dividend • Feb 21

Ex-date: 25th February 2026 Payment date: 5th March 2026 Dividend yield will be 5.7%, which is about the same as the industry average.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 3.6% 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 Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (2.8% operating cash flow to total debt). Earnings have declined by 3.6% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Dividend is not well covered by earnings (104% payout ratio). Large one-off items impacting financial results.
