New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: UK£7.36m (US$9.63m) 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 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. Revenue is less than US$1m (UK£25k revenue, or US$33k). Market cap is less than US$10m (UK£7.36m market cap, or US$9.63m).

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks 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. Revenue is less than US$1m (UK£25k revenue, or US$32k).
