New Risk • Jul 29
New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: ₩141.9b (US$97.8m) 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 Risk High level of non-cash earnings (36% accrual ratio). Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$100m (₩141.9b market cap, or US$97.8m). New Risk • Jul 22

New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 21% 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 (21% accrual ratio). Minor Risk Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change). Duyuru • Mar 13

New minor risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by earnings. The company is paying a dividend despite being loss-making. Dividend yield: 2.4% This is considered a minor risk. Companies that pay out too much of their earnings are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If earnings growth slows or earnings fall, then there may not be enough earnings 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. However, this risk is mitigated by the fact the dividend is covered by cash flows. 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 Risk Earnings have declined by 15% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite being loss-making. Market cap is less than US$100m (₩83.4b market cap, or US$58.7m). Duyuru • Mar 12

New minor risk - Financial data availability Less than 3 years of financial data is available. This is considered a minor risk. If the company has been trading for less than 3 years, then it has not had the opportunity to establish a long-term track record. This makes it difficult for investors to assess the true growth potential, sustainability and resilience of the business under different economic conditions. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Less than 3 years of financial data is available. Large one-off items impacting financial results.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 4.3% 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 Risk Earnings have declined by 4.3% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (4.9% net profit margin).

New Risk • Aug 31
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: 7.9% Last year net profit margin: 19% 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 Unstable dividend paying track record with dividend experiencing an annual drop of over 20% in the past. Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (7.9% net profit margin). Market cap is less than US$100m (₩92.5b market cap, or US$69.3m).
