The company has experienced increased volatility in its share price and a high weekly volatility rate of 35%. While short-term assets exceed liabilities, the board's relative inexperience may impact strategic decisions moving forward. However, Sino-Ocean maintains a sufficient cash runway for over three years based on current free cash flow levels.
