CEO COMMENTS

The search for exciting, value-generating target companies continues for tbd30.

Through application of the established methodology, we can conduct our own analysis and, via networks, identify and thereafter evaluate potential target companies. tbd30 is searching for profitable Nordic companies with healthy organic growth that are active in the business services sector.

tbd30 | 3

During the search process, two groups of potential target companies have emerged: more mature companies that are ready for a market listing as a natural next step; and companies in a growth phase that can be accelerated through access to a listing. We believe tbd30 can be a partner for companies belonging to both groups.

Anders Lönnqvist, CEO of tbd30 AB

DESCRIPTION OF tbd30

tbd30 is a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) that is listed on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm's new segment for SPAC companies. The company was founded at the initiative of Anders Böös and Anders Lönnqvist. The purpose of the company is to conduct a business combination with a company in the business services sector within 30 months of listing. Business services is a sector that the founders consider to have interesting and good prospects, and in many cases with the potential to pursue substantial change and development work.

tbd30 has a goal-oriented and competent Board of Directors and management focused on realising the company's purpose and strategy – to identify, evaluate and acquire target companies that create added value for tbd30's investors and shareholders. Together, the Board has extensive and solid experience of corporate management and governance, business combinations and mergers, change processes, the capital markets and the business sector as a whole.

tbd30's business idea and objective are to identify within 30 months a Nordic company operating in business services, with a strong position and a scalable business model, that can be listed through a reverse merger in which the target company is valued at up to SEK 5 billion. A relatively large proportion of companies in the business services sector are outside the public and listed environment despite having achieved sufficient maturity and the opportunity to benefit from being listed.

tbd30 offers a potential target company access to investors in the Swedish and international capital markets, which can reinforce and strengthen continued growth. The purpose of tbd30 is also to offer investors exposure to an interesting and exciting company that before a potential acquisition by tbd30 operates as an unlisted company in a private environment.

This is enabled through the unique characteristics of the SPAC, where investors invest together with founders and sponsors, but at the same time are also able to review a proposed business combination before it is carried out.

OTHER INFORMATION

tbd30 INTERIM REPORT Q1, (1 NOVEMBER 2021 – 31 JANUARY 2022)

As tbd30 is an SPAC, the company has initially generated no or only limited revenue. The company's assets primarily comprise cash and cash equivalents raised to finance the company's operations and costs arising in connection with the listing. This means the company will report negative earnings until a business combination is completed.

PERFORMANCE, 1 NOVEMBER 2021 – 31 JANUARY 2022

  • Operating expenses were SEK -2.2 million (–).
  • Profit/loss after tax was SEK -2.2 million (–).
  • Profit/loss consists primarily of personnel costs and other external expenses.

FINANCIAL POSITION

Equity at the end of the period amounted to SEK 785.9 million (790.4) and the equity/assets ratio was 93.3% (92.7). At the end of the period, the company's equity per share was SEK 75.1 (75.3). In addition, the company has an agreed SEK 10 million credit facility with the company's sponsors that has yet to be exercised.

OWNER STATISTICS AND SHARE CAPITAL

Equity at end of period amounted to SEK 785.9 million (790.4), of which share capital was SEK 2.6 million (2.6) with a quotient value of 0.25.

At the end of the period, the company's ten largest shareholders were:

Servisen Investment Management AB 11.9%

RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During the period, the company has not had any transactions with related parties aside from the market rate salary received by the CEO. For a more detailed description of the company's management of transactions with related parties, refer to the annual report for the 2021 financial year, Note 15, page 20.

EMPLOYEES

The number of employees (measured as FTEs) amounted to 4 (–) at period end. The average number of employees (measured as FTEs) for the November to January period amounted to 4 (–).

MATERIAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The company is newly formed without a business history and the company has not previously generated, and did not generate at the end of the period, any revenue. The company's profitability will be related to the future business combination. There is therefore a risk that the company does not complete a business combination during the investment period or that the company's working capital is not sufficient to complete a business combination.

There is also a risk that tbd30 may find it difficult to complete a business combination due to competition from other competitors or other challenges.

Investors who do not approve the business combination at the Extraordinary General Meeting are repaid their invested capital from the restricted account, while investors who voted in favour at the Extraordinary General Meeting receive an extra warrant (2021:3) which subject to certain conditions is allotted free of any charge.

A detailed description of the company's material risks and uncertainties is available on the company's website www.tbd30.se and in the annual report for the 2021 financial year.

This interim report has not been audited.

FINANCIAL NOTES

NOTE 1 – ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of this interim report are set out below.

This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting. The company has prepared its financial statements in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and recommendation RFR 2 of the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities entails that the company applies all EU-adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as endorsed by the EU, with the limitations pursuant to the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2 for legal entities. For a more detailed description of the accounting policies applied in this interim report, refer to the annual report for the 2021 financial year, Note 1, pages 14–15.

The carrying amount of the Group's current financial instruments measured at amortised cost essentially corresponds to its fair value since the discount effect is not material.

NOTE 2 – EFFECTS OF CHANGED ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

Estimates and judgements are reviewed periodically and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events considered reasonable under the prevailing circumstances. The company also makes important judgements in the application of the company's accounting policies. For a more detailed description, refer to the annual report for the 2021 financial year, Note 2, page 15.

NOTE 3 – RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

No transactions between the company and its related parties have materially impacted the Group's financial position or profit/ loss for the period. For a more detailed description of the company's management of transactions with related parties, refer to the annual report for the 2021 financial year, Note 15, page 20.

NOTE 4 – FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS – SERIES 2021:2 AND 2021:3 WARRANTS

On the balance-sheet date, series 2021:2 warrants are recognised at a premium of SEK 4.45 per warrant. Fair value has been determined using the Black-Scholes' valuation model and is included at level 3. Important input data in the valuation model comprised an underlying share price of SEK 98.2, an exercise price of SEK 115, a theoretical maturity of 4.00 years (agreed maturity 5.02 years adjusted for time before a business combination), risk-free interest with a maturity of 4 years of 0.16%, and volatility of 30%. Series 2021:3 warrants are recognised at a premium of SEK 2.14. Fair value has been determined using the Black-Scholes' valuation model and is included at level 3. The valuation was performed in two stages and important stage 1 input data comprised an underlying share price of SEK 98.2, respective exercise prices of SEK 115 and SEK 180, a theoretical maturity of 4.00 years (agreed maturity 5.02 years adjusted for time before a business combination), risk-free interest with a maturity of 4 years of 0.16%, and volatility of 30%. Possible, reasonable changes in the above parameters are not expected to materially impact earnings and equity. The period's change in value totalled SEK 1.5 million and was recognised in interest expenses and similar profit/loss items in the income statement.

On the balance-sheet date, 16,800,000 warrants were outstanding (series 2021:2 and 2021:3) of which 8,400,000 were possible to exercise, which is unchanged from the 2021 financial year.
