New major risk - Financial position The company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Operating cash flow to total debt ratio: 0.2% This is considered a major risk. If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (0.2% operating cash flow to total debt). Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (29% increase in shares outstanding).

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 31% 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 High level of non-cash earnings (33% accrual ratio). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (31% increase in shares outstanding). Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (6.7% average weekly change).

Net income: JP¥133.0m (up 85% from FY 2024). Profit margin: 5.1% (up from 3.3% in FY 2024). The increase in margin was driven by higher revenue. Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has increased by 45% per year but the company’s share price has fallen by 1% per year, which means it is significantly lagging earnings. New Risk • Dec 15
New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Japanese stocks, typically moving 8.1% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (currently running at an operating cash loss). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (8.1% average weekly change). Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (JP¥1.56b market cap, or US$10.0m). Announcement • Dec 12

New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: JP¥1.54b (US$9.91m) This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small market capitalization 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 Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (currently running at an operating cash loss). Market cap is less than US$10m (JP¥1.54b market cap, or US$9.91m). Minor Risk Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (7.8% average weekly change). Announcement • Nov 12

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 15% 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 Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 15% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (1.8% net profit margin).
