New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 96% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. New Risk • Apr 18
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: 0.5% Last year net profit margin: 3.8% 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. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Reported Earnings • Apr 18

New Risk • Aug 15
New minor risk - Financial position The company has a high level of debt. Net debt to equity ratio: 40% This is considered a minor risk. Having a high level of debt increases the company's balance sheet risk. The company has a higher interest repayment burden, leading to the need to allocate a greater amount of its earnings towards servicing the debt, potentially limiting growth options or shareholder distributions. It can also increase the risk of bankruptcy if business conditions deteriorate enough that the company can no longer meet its debt obligations. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Reported Earnings • Aug 15

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 18% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (11% average weekly change). Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (1.5% net profit margin). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (18% increase in shares outstanding). New Risk • Jan 08
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 Filipino stocks, typically moving 9.3% 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: Minor Risks Paying a dividend despite having no free cash flows. Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (9.3% average weekly change). Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (1.5% net profit margin).

Lopez Holdings Cancels Voluntary Delisting Plan Lopez Holdings Corporation withdrew its petition to voluntarily delist from the local market after First Philippine Holdings Corp. (FPH) amended its tender offer on January 20, 2021. In a disclosure to the stock exchange on January 21, 2021, Lopes Holdings said the petition to voluntarily delist was “conditional” and could only continue if FPH acquired 45.56% of the company’s total issued and outstanding common shares. Lopez Holdings added that it recently disclosed the possibility of being involuntarily delisted if the minimum public ownership (MPO) drops below 10%, which is “conditional” on FPH acquiring a certain number of shares. “The amendment of the tender offer means there is no longer such a risk and Lopez Holdings can remain listed even if FPH acquires the new maximum of 34.5%,” Lopez Holdings President Salvador G. Tirona was quoted as saying. On Jan. 20, FPH changed its tender offer report to cover only up to a maximum of 34.5% or 1.57 billion common shares of the total issued and outstanding common shares of Lopez Holdings. This is lower than FPH’s previous offer to acquire up to a maximum of 45.56% or 2.07 billion common shares, and a minimum of 20% or 908.46 million common shares of the total issued and outstanding common shares of Lopez Holdings, priced at PHP 3.85 per common share. “The amendment removes the risk of Lopez Holdings falling below the MPO required by the PSE and dispenses with the need for the company to pursue a petition for voluntary delisting,” the disclosure said. The tender offer does not include the shares owned by Lopez Inc. which has decided not to tender its shares. FPH disclosed that it would also acquire shares of Lopez Holdings from the non-public shareholders, and estimated that 33.65% will come from the public. “Deducting this figure from the present public float of 43.805%, this should leave Lopez Holdings with a minimum public ownership of at least 10.15%, assuming that the maximum limit is reached,” the disclosure said. The company filed its petition to voluntarily delist 4.63 billion common shares from the main board of the PSE in December 2020. Is New 90 Day High Low • Nov 26
