New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of Japanese stocks, typically moving 8.1% a week.

Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Latest financial reports are more than 1 year old (reported December 2022 fiscal period end). Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (8.1% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (3.5% increase in shares outstanding).
