Snapshot

  • Operating margin 90.9% TTM vs industry median 18% - pure royalty model with near-zero operating costs (785K expenses on 8.7M revenue).[Operating Margin TTM]
  • ROE 470% TTM (60x industry median 7.8%) driven by minimal equity base of 1.9M - capital-light royalty structure.[Return on Equity TTM]
  • P/B ratio 40.4x TTM reflects premium for zero-debt, 100% cash balance sheet (4.8M cash = 100% of assets).[Price to Book TTM]

Watch Triggers

  • Total Revenue TTM: Falls below 7M (>20% decline from current)Would signal accelerating royalty depletion, forcing dividend cut.
  • Dividends Paid Per Share TTM: Cut below $0.40 (>25% reduction)Primary investment thesis is yield; cut would reprice equity materially.
  • Free Cash Flow TTM: Drops below dividend obligations (~4.8M)FCF of 3.2M already below implied dividend need - unsustainable gap.

Bull Case
