PRESS RELEASE

Huddlestock Fintech AS (HUDL) – Huddlestock Fintech AS: FY 2021 Pro-forma revenues above target.

Stavanger, Norway, 10 February 2022 – Huddlestock Fintech AS, a provider of innovative technology solutions to the capital markets, treasury and wealth management industries, today released its Unaudited Financial Report for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021.

For the fiscal year 2021, Huddlestock has delivered pro-forma revenues above target. Pro-forma revenues were NOK 41.5 million, compared to the guidance range of NOK 38-41 million. Adjusted for non-recurring items, the company delivered a proforma adjusted EBITDA loss of NOK 4.9 million, in the mid-range of the guided loss of NOK 3.5-5.5 million.

"In the fourth quarter we saw a significant uptick in client demand for our technology-first advisory. We are delighted to deliver a fantastic quarter with a sequential doubling in revenues. Banks and wealth managers continue to invest in innovation and technology for the future, and we have since the start of 2022 seen continued strong demand for our expert advisors and are pursuing promising leads across our portfolio of technology solutions. We have also continued to add a number of talented employees to our group. Starting 2022, we are 40 employees within the group, and are well on our way to build an organisation for growth, creating sustainable shareholder value," John E. Skajem, CEO Huddlestock Fintech, said.

Huddlestock's advisory business delivered a strong fourth quarter with revenues of NOK 13.4 million, more than double revenues in Q3 2021, confirming the strength of our franchise. The strong momentum within our technology-first advisory has been driven by repeat multi-year mandates, some of which have been widened and extended. During the quarter, two new contracts were signed with a leading Nordic Fintech and a Danish cooperative. A leading Nordic bank extended and widened our remit, adding more of our expert advisors. Clients are committing to projects well into 2022 and all our consultants are fully booked for Q1 2022 and almost all of Q2 2022.

Huddlestock's technology segment delivered revenues of NOK 0.5 million (all recurring) in the fourth quarter, taking the full year to NOK 2.7 million in revenues. The reorganisation of our German operations at the end of last year led to both a change in management and a reassessment of our commercial portfolio.

"We are now positioning our German subsidiary for growth, preparing to scale and prioritize profitable contracts. I am happy to report that we have seen a number of promising client leads emerge across our range of technology solutions since the beginning of the year," John E. Skajem, CEO Huddlestock Fintech, said.

Huddlestock Fintech's reported revenuesfor the fourth quarter, in which Visigon was fully consolidated, was NOK 13.87 million and the EBITDA loss was NOK 0.26 million. The group enjoys a strong balance sheet with 10m own shares held in treasury.
