New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 1.1% 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 Risk Earnings have declined by 1.1% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (5.8% average weekly change). Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (3.2% net profit margin). Market cap is less than US$100m (JP¥15.3b market cap, or US$98.3m). Reported Earnings • Feb 16

Earnings per share (EPS) also missed analyst estimates by 50%. Revenue is forecast to grow 10% p.a. on average during the next 2 years, compared to a 5.2% growth forecast for the IT industry in Japan. Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has fallen by 15% per year but the company’s share price has fallen by 32% per year, which means it is performing significantly worse than earnings.
