New Risk • Jun 04
New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 1.5% per year for the foreseeable future. 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 expected to decline, then in most cases the share price will decline over time as well. 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. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Board Change • May 20

New Risk • Sep 13
New major risk - Share price stability The company's shares are highly illiquid. Its shares have only traded on 2 days in the past 3 months. This is considered a major risk. A lack of liquidity can be a big problem for shareholders. If there are not enough willing buyers of the stock, selling down a large shareholding may take a long time or it can crush the share price, potentially exposing shareholders to losses or reduced profits. It also means the share price may not be reflective of the true value of the company because there is infrequent price discovery. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Announcement • Aug 05
