New major risk - Financial position The company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Operating cash flow to total debt ratio: 3.0% This is considered a major risk.

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (3.0% operating cash flow to total debt). Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Paying a dividend despite being loss-making. Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows.
