New major risk - Revenue size The company makes less than US$1m in revenue. Total revenue: kr7.5m (US$821k) This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small amount of revenue 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 Shares are highly illiquid. Earnings have declined by 62% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (over 6x increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (kr7.5m revenue, or US$821k).

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 46% This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. 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 (-kr18m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (18% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 70% per year over the past 5 years.

New minor risk - Financial position The company has a high level of debt. Net debt to equity ratio: 1,462% This is considered a minor risk. Having a high level of debt increases the company's balance sheet risk.

It can also increase the risk of bankruptcy if business conditions deteriorate enough that the company can no longer meet its debt obligations. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (16% average weekly change). High level of non-cash earnings (73% accrual ratio). Revenue is less than US$1m. Market cap is less than US$10m (kr53.3m market cap, or US$5.27m).
