Endorsement and Statement by the Board of Directors and the CEO

Fly Play hf. is an Icelandic low-cost airline that operates a hub-and-spoke model between Iceland, Europe, and North America. The company launched its services in June 2021 and was listed on the Nasdaq First North Iceland in July 2021. PLAY's primary goal is to make flying affordable for everyone. PLAY offers a safe and pleasant journey in new and comfortable Airbus aircraft to around 30 destinations.

The Condensed Interim Financial Statements for the period from January 1 to September 30 2022 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) for Interim Financial Statements (IAS 34). The Financial Statements are presented in thousands of US dollars, the company's functional currency.

Operations in the nine-month period ended 30 September 2022

According to the Condensed Interim Financial Statement total loss for the period was USD 28.4 million. On September 30, 2022, equity amounted to USD 39.6 million, including share capital in the amount of USD 5.6 million and a share premium of USD 85.6 million. Reference is made to the Statement of Changes in Equity regarding the information on changes in equity. The average number of full-time employees was 239 in the period thereof 106 men and 133 women, and salaries and related expenses amounted to USD 18 million.

PLAY is still experiencing the effects of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, mainly due to the increase and fluctuation in fuel prices and rising inflation. PLAY has, however, seen a very positive development in unit cost per available seat kilometer (CASK), excluding fuel and emissions being lower than four US cents since May of this year and decreasing further over the last quarter or to about three US cents.

Over the first nine months of 2022, PLAY has experienced significant growth in load factor and number of passengers. The load factor went from an average of 63% in the first quarter of 2022 to 74% in the second quarter and 85% in the third quarter. The total number of passengers went from just over 56 thous. in the first quarter to just under 182 thous. in the second quarter and 311 thous. in the third quarter. A key focus will be to maintain this rapid growth in the number of passengers while increasing their respective yields.

After some issues with the On-time performance (OTP) in the summer months of 2022 due to the transfer to a hub-and-spoke network and the problematic situation at European airports that struggled with staff shortages and subsequent delays, PLAY has had very good OTP in this quarter, and for the first nine months of 2022, OTP was 85.2%.

PLAY's total assets amounted to 328 million USD on September 30, and the equity ratio was 12.1%. The rights of use assets and lease liability rose in the quarter due to the arrival of new aircraft, further detailed in notes 12, 16 and 17.

Outlook going forward

PLAY believes that flexibility in scaling production to demand has been and remains crucial for PLAY. We will continue to focus on flexibility, demand-driven growth, and attractive value offering to the market. PLAY is well prepared to weather the uncertainty ahead with its healthy financial position.

In September 2022, PLAY advertised new positions for 150 flight attendants and 55 pilots. This milestone marked the most extensive hiring yet for PLAY and was a step in the company's ambitious growth plan. In October, PLAY also introduced new destinations such as Athens and Porto, further working toward becoming the leading airline between Iceland and the Iberian Peninsula.

These Condensed Interim Financial Statements of the Company are for the nine-month period ended 30 September 2022 and have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 as adopted by the European Union.

The Condensed Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2021. The Financial Statements for the Company for the period ended 31 December 2021 are available upon request from the Company's registered office or at www.flyplay.com/financial-reports-and-presentations

These Condensed Interim Financial Statements do not include all of the information required for a complete set of IFRS financial statements. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Company's financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.

The Condensed Interim Financial Statements were approved by the Board of Directors of Fly Play hf. on November 3, 2022.

$h$ Basis of measurement

The Financial Statements are prepared on a historical cost basis. Further details of the Company's accounting policies are included the 2021 financial statements.

Going concern C.

These Financial Statements are prepared on a going concern basis. The Company has prepared the financial statements on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern. The Directors consider that there are no material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt over this assumption. They have formed a judgement that there is a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and not less than 12 months from the end of the reporting period.

$\mathcal{R}$ Functional and presentation currency

These Financial Statements are presented in United States Dollars (USD), which is the Company's functional currency. All financial information presented in United States Dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand unless otherwise stated.

4. Use of estimates and judgements

In preparing these Financial Statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Company's accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

The significant judgements made by management in applying the Company's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the Financial Statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2021.

Determination of fair value is based on assumptions subject to management's assessment of the development of various factors in the future. The actual selling price of assets and settlement value of liabilities may differ from these estimates.

Measurement of fair values

A number of the Company's accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Where applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities are in the notes to the relevant assets and liabilities.

5. Accounting policies

Standards issued but not yet effective

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Condensed Interim Financial Statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021, except for the adoption of new standards effective as of 1 January 2022.
