Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board is completely male
The Board composition appears to be rather static and has little diversity in terms of age

Financial issues to consider:

Spending has fallen significantly over the last 5 years relative to the previous period
Income has been volatile and on several occasions in recent years less than spending
