CMC Corporation to Report Q2, 2024 Results on May 13, 2024 CMC Corporation announced that they will report Q2, 2024 results on May 13, 2024 New Risk • Feb 27
New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: JP¥14.0b (US$93.0m) 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. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Reported Earnings • Feb 15
