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 Egyptian stocks, typically moving 7.7% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates 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. It also 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk High level of non-cash earnings (23% accrual ratio). Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (7.7% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$100m (ج.م2.81b market cap, or US$57.0m). New Risk • Aug 31
New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 31% 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 (31% accrual ratio). Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (ج.م2.59b market cap, or US$53.2m). Valuation Update With 7 Day Price Move • Aug 25

First quarter 2024 earnings released: EPS: ج.م0.61 (vs ج.م1.52 in 1Q 2023) First quarter 2024 results: EPS: ج.م0.61 (down from ج.م1.52 in 1Q 2023). Revenue: ج.م666.6m (up 141% from 1Q 2023). Net income: ج.م41.5m (down 8.5% from 1Q 2023). Profit margin: 6.2% (down from 16% in 1Q 2023). The decrease in margin was driven by higher expenses. Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has increased by 51% per year but the company’s share price has only increased by 36% per year, which means it is significantly lagging earnings growth. New Risk • Mar 15
New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 2.2% 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 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. Earnings have declined by 2.2% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (ج.م2.41b market cap, or US$50.4m).

The move to profitability was primarily driven by lower expenses. Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has increased by 26% per year but the company’s share price has increased by 45% per year, which means it is tracking significantly ahead of earnings growth. New Risk • Jan 31
New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: ج.م2.81b (US$91.0m) 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 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. Earnings have declined by 17% per year over the past 5 years. High level of non-cash earnings (174% accrual ratio). Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (ج.م2.81b market cap, or US$91.0m). New Risk • Aug 10
New major risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Dividend per share is over 8x earnings per share. Cash payout ratio: 188% Dividend yield: 7.7% This is considered a major risk. Companies that pay out too much of their earnings and cash flows are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If earnings or cash flows stagnate or fall, then there may not be enough to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to dig into capital reserves or take on debt to maintain the dividend. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Dividend per share is over 8x earnings per share. Cash payout ratio: 188% Earnings have declined by 44% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (ج.م1.65b market cap, or US$53.4m). Reported Earnings • Aug 09
