New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 24% 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 Risk Earnings have declined by 24% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (8.6% average weekly change). Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (2.2% net profit margin). Announcement • Mar 30

New Risk • Oct 30
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 Chinese stocks, typically moving 7.5% a week.

Sustainability & Growth Dividend is covered by earnings (30% earnings payout ratio) but the company has no free cash flows available, indicating it may be using cash reserves or debt to pay the dividend. The dividend has decreased over the past 76 years, indicating a lack of growth and stability in payments. EPS is expected to grow by 203% over the next 3 years, which should provide support to the dividend and adequate earnings cover. New Risk • May 17
New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 34% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Major Estimate Revision • May 02
