New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: ₩15.0b (US$9.96m) 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 Risk Market cap is less than US$10m (₩15.0b market cap, or US$9.96m). Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (11% net profit margin). New Risk • Mar 25
New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results.

Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Market cap is less than US$10m (₩14.7b market cap, or US$9.83m). Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (11% net profit margin). New Risk • Mar 09
