    There is substantial doubt about whether the Company can continue as a going concern.

    At September 30, 2024, the Company's aggregate cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $1.4 million. As a result of challenges encountered in mining and processing at DDGM, the Company is not currently generating positive cash flow from its mining operations. The Company's financial position and recent operating results, along with its inability to achieve its production estimates, raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Failure to raise some form of long-term debt arrangement or additional equity capital will cause the Company to further increase its working capital decline, and the Company may be compelled to place the mine on "care and maintenance" status and cease operations until sufficient capital is available. Additionally, even if the Company does raise sufficient capital to support its operating expenses and generate revenues, there can be no assurances that the revenue will be sufficient to enable it to achieve a level where it generates profits and positive cash flows from operations. The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2
    Issuances of our stock in the future could dilute existing shareholders and materially adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

    We have the authority to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of common stock, 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, and to issue options and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, in some cases without shareholder approval. As of March 20, 2024, there were 88,757,610 shares of common stock outstanding. Future issuances of our securities could be at prices substantially below the price paid for our common stock by our current shareholders. We can issue significant blocks of our common stock without further shareholder approval. Because we have issued less common stock than many of our larger peers, the issuance of a significant amount of our common stock may have a disproportionately large impact on our share price compared to larger companies.

  • Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3
    Our stock price may be volatile, and as a result, shareholders could lose part or all of their investment.

    In addition to other risk factors identified in this annual report on Form 10-K, and due to volatility associated with equity securities in general, the value of a shareholder's investment could decline due to the impact of numerous factors upon the market price of our common stock, including: - Changes in the worldwide price for the metals we mine;- Adverse results from our exploration, development, or production efforts;- Changes to the dividend program, including suspensions;- Producing at rates lower than those targeted;- Political and regulatory risks and social unrest, including the conflicts between Ukraine and Russia and in Gaza;- Weather conditions and extreme weather events, including unusually heavy rains;- Failure to meet our revenue or profit goals or operating budget;- Decline in demand for our common stock;- Downward revisions in securities analysts' estimates or changes in global financial markets, global economies, and general market conditions;- Technological innovations by competitors or in competing technologies;- Investor perception of our industry or our prospects;- Lawsuits;- Economic impact from the spread of any disease;- Our ability to integrate and operate the companies and the businesses that we acquire;- Actions by government or central banks; and - General economic trends. Stock markets in general have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations, and the market prices of individual securities have been highly volatile. These fluctuations are often unrelated to operating performance and may materially adversely affect the market price of our common stock. As a result, shareholders may be unable to sell their shares at a desired price.

FAQ

What are “Risk Factors”?
Risk factors are any situations or occurrences that could make investing in a company risky. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) requires that publicly traded companies disclose their most significant risk factors. This is so that potential investors can consider any risks before they make an investment. They also offer companies protection, as a company can use risk factors as liability protection. This could happen if a company underperforms and investors take legal action as a result. It is worth noting that smaller companies, that is those with a public float of under $75 million on the last business day, do not have to include risk factors in their 10-K and 10-Q forms, although some may choose to do so.
How do companies disclose their risk factors?
Publicly traded companies initially disclose their risk factors to the SEC through their S-1 filings as part of the IPO process. Additionally, companies must provide a complete list of risk factors in their Annual Reports (Form 10-K) or (Form 20-F) for “foreign private issuers”. Quarterly Reports also include a section on risk factors (Form 10-Q) where companies are only required to update any changes since the previous report. According to the SEC, risk factors should be reported concisely, logically and in “plain English” so investors can understand them.
How can I use TipRanks risk factors in my stock research?
Use the Risk Factors tab to get data about the risk factors of any company in which you are considering investing. You can easily see the most significant risks a company is facing. Additionally, you can find out which risk factors a company has added, removed or adjusted since its previous disclosure. You can also see how a company’s risk factors compare to others in its sector. Without reading company reports or participating in conference calls, you would most likely not have access to this sort of information, which is usually not included in press releases or other public announcements. A simplified analysis of risk factors is unique to TipRanks.
