New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 20% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 20% per year over the past 5 years. High level of non-cash earnings (115% accrual ratio). Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (₩42.5b market cap, or US$30.3m).

MONITORAPP Inc. Launches On-Premises ZTNA, AIZTNA MONITORAPP Inc. has recently introduced AIZTNA, an on-premises Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) appliance, expanding on its existing cloud-based AIONCLOUD Secure Remote Access (SRA) solution. The global demand for ZTNA solutions has risen sharply, driven by increased security needs for hybrid workforces and the limitations of traditional VPNs. Particularly in sectors like government, finance, and public institutions, there is a noticeable trend toward on-premises ZTNA deployments to balance security and compliance with flexibility. MONITORAPP's 'AIZTNA' appliance is released to address this demand by providing robust identity- and context-based access control (Software Defined Perimeter), blocking unauthorized access with device verification (Device Posture Check), and limiting users' data access by complying with the Least Privilege Principle. Additionally, the Micro-segmentation feature built within restricts users' internal movement with application-specific access control policies, strengthening internal security. The AIZTNA appliance offers high security and privacy protection by managing data internally and can be customized to meet the sophisticated needs of organizations. It also integrates seamlessly with existing infrastructure, maximizing operational efficiency. With the launch of 'AIZTNA', MONITORAPP now provides ZTNA in both cloud-based and on-premises formats to customers across various industries. This launch reinforces MONITORAPP's commitment to providing a full range of security solutions, from physical and virtual appliances to the cloud-based platform AIONCLOUD, enabling customers to tailor solutions to their unique network and policy requirements.
