New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of Japanese stocks, typically moving 9.5% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (9.5% average weekly change). Minor Risks Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (2.1% net profit margin). Market cap is less than US$100m (JP¥5.06b market cap, or US$33.8m). Valuation Update With 7 Day Price Move • Nov 24
Investor sentiment improves as stock rises 32% After last week's 32% share price gain to JP¥330, the stock trades at a trailing P/E ratio of 36.2x. Average trailing P/E is 29x in the Hospitality industry in Japan. Total returns to shareholders of 26% over the past three years. New Risk • Nov 01
New minor risk - Profit margin trend The company's profit margins are lower than last year and have reduced by more than 30%. Net profit margin: 2.1% Last year net profit margin: 3.7% This is considered a minor risk. A large drop in profit margin could indicate the company does not have strong competitive advantages or it is yet to establish itself and its core business. Even if it is a well established business, this may make it a much riskier investment than one that has a combination of proven competitive advantages and a stable or growing profit margin. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Dividend is not well covered by cash flows (dividend per share is over 5x cash flows per share). Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (2.1% net profit margin). Market cap is less than US$100m (JP¥3.90b market cap, or US$25.7m). Tillkännagivande • Oct 01
