Daily Journal's Q3 revenue grew 15.3% to $27.0 million, driven by Journal Technologies, but the company swung to a $10.9 million net loss on $24.1 million of unrealized losses in its marketable securities portfolio. More importantly, management again concluded that disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in segregation of duties and revenue recognition. Remediation is substantially complete in design, but the weaknesses will not be considered fixed until controls operate effectively for a sufficient period — a governance red flag that keeps this filing at an elevated score.
