New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 48% This is considered a major risk. Non-cash earnings can arise from many different things. However, if a company consistently has a high level of non-cash earnings, it may be a sign that they are recognizing revenue from customers before the full value of the sales are received as cash or they are not depreciating the value of their assets appropriately. These are practices that inflate earnings, while not providing a similar increase to cash flows. Companies in some select industries naturally have a high level of non-cash earnings and it is not a major concern. However, in the worst case scenario it can be an early sign of performance manipulation by management. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk High level of non-cash earnings (48% accrual ratio). Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (15% net profit margin). Market cap is less than US$100m (₩75.9b market cap, or US$51.7m). New Risk • Aug 30
New major risk - Financial data availability The company's latest financial reports are more than a year old. Last reported fiscal period ended September 2012. This is considered a major risk. If the company has not reported its earnings on time, it may have been delayed due to audit problems or it may be finding it difficult to reconcile its accounts. In the worst case scenario, it may be facing other major going concern issues jeopardizing its viability as a listed company. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Latest financial reports are more than 1 year old (reported September 2012 fiscal period end). Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (₩94.8b market cap, or US$68.4m). New Risk • Jun 04
New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: ₩118.8b (US$87.2m) This is considered a minor 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 Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (17% average weekly change). High level of non-cash earnings (48% accrual ratio). Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Market cap is less than US$100m (₩118.8b market cap, or US$87.2m).
