New minor risk - Profit margin trend The company's profit margins are lower than last year and have reduced by more than 30%. Net profit margin: 0.2% Last year net profit margin: 2.2% This is considered a minor risk.

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (2.1x net interest cover). Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 216% Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows.

New minor risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by cash flows. The company is paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Dividend yield: 2.6% This is considered a minor risk. Dividends are ultimately paid out of the company's available cash reserves. Companies that pay out too much of their cash flow are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future.

Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to take on debt to maintain the dividend. This risk is mitigated by the fact the dividend is covered by earnings, however, cash flows are generally more important. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (1.5x net interest cover). Shares are highly illiquid.
