Continued momentum in transformation

The third quarter was characterized by continued progress in Sleep Cycle's transformation. With stable growth in partnerships of 55 percent compared to the previous year, corresponding to 11 percent of the total quarterly revenue, we are seeing good momentum in our strategic initiatives that strengthen the company's position for the future.

We achieved an EBIT margin of 27.3 percent while making progress in technology licensing, clinical validation, and product innovation—areas that together build a more resilient and diversified company.

Strong momentum to capture new opportunities

By successfully implementing our strategy Powered by Sleep Cycle and launching Sleep SDK we have positioned the company to take advantage of new opportunities in technology licensing. In the coming quarters, we will build on this strong momentum to accelerate growth. At the same time, our sleep apnea screening initiative is progressing, with approximately 20 percent of the clinical study now completed—an important milestone on the road to medical certification and future commercialization. Together, these investments strengthen our foundation and bring us closer to growth beyond the consumer app segment.

Improved user experience and stronger revenue base

In the third quarter, total net sales decreased by 6.6 percent compared with the previous year, or 4.7 percent adjusted for currency effects, reflecting a continued slowdown in the market for consumer-facing sleep apps after several years of strong growth. The number of paying subscribers amounted to 832,000, a decrease of 9 percent compared to the previous year. This is a natural consequence of our focus on revenue quality over volume. Our consumer business continues to perform well relative to the category as a whole, supported by price adjustments, high engagement, and continuous product innovation, and we are gradually winning additional market share in the segment.

In September, price increases of around 10 percent were implemented for new sales in major markets such as the US – a step that will strengthen growth over time while maintaining demand. In the fourth quarter, we continue to adjust pricing, focusing on revenue rather than subscriber growth. The pace of innovation in the app is also increasing. The new Liquid Glass design, launched in conjunction with Apple's iOS 26, improves the user experience and

increases visibility for our products, with positive effects not least on app downloads. In the fourth quarter, we will launch the first version of our AI Sleep Coach, designed to make Sleep Cycle a more proactive companion that helps users build long-term sleep habits, strengthens engagement over time, and opens up new user segments.

Partnerships that drive growth

Our partnerships continus to grow steadily, with an increase of 13 percent compared to the second quarter and 55 percent compared to the third quarter of the previous year. Partnerships now represent 11 percent of the quarter's revenues, confirming the strength of our brand and the relevance among our user base. Partnerships are an important part of our strategy - they diversify our revenue, reduce our dependence on app stores, and strengthen Sleep Cycle's presence in the broader health ecosystem.

Building resilience through diversification

We enter the last quarter of the year with focus and confidence. Progress across all areas of the business demonstrates that Sleep Cycle is building a stronger and more resilient company—one that leverages our data, technology, and partnerships to create multiple revenue streams for the future. In the fourth quarter, we continue to capture the increased interest in our new products, especially Powered by Sleep Cycle, and continue to strengthen the foundation for long-term growth.

In conclusion, I would like to extend a big thank you to our shareholders and our employees - your continued trust and commitment are crucial to our success and to the transformation that is now taking shape within Sleep Cycle.

ERIK JIVMARK, CEO

The Sleep Cycle app is evolving – more personal, more proactive

Sleep Cycle continues to power innovation in the app. During the quarter, the focus has been on design, personalization, and price adjustments—initiatives that together improve the user experience and strengthen the company's long-term growth and profitability.

New app design: Liquid Glass

In September, the Liquid Glass design was launched in conjunction with Apple's launch of iOS 26. The new visual experience increases clarity and navigability and reinforces the app's premium positioning.

AI Sleep Coach is launched

During the fourth quarter, a roll-out of the first version of AI Sleep Coach is planned – a personal sleep coach that, based on Sleep Cycle's data models, helps users establish healthy sleep habits. The feature makes the app more proactive and is expected to strengthen both engagement and loyalty over time.

Price adjustments for sustainable revenue growth

To ensure a strong long-term revenue base, Sleep Cycle implemented price adjustments during the quarter of approximately 10% for new subscribers in several major markets, including the US. The strategy is to prioritize revenue per user (ARPU) over volume growth, with the goal of creating a stable and profitable subscription business.

Enhanced Smart Alarm

During the quarter, we started rolling out improvements to Smart Alarm, which further refines the algorithm that wakes the user during light sleep. The update provides a more accurate wake-up window and contributes to a significantly improved user experience—more people wake up feeling more refreshed and ready for the day ahead.

Improved customer journey and onboarding

To facilitate the transition from curious user to paying customer, Sleep Cycle improved both the web-to-app flow and the onboarding process in the app during the quarter. The new web feed is visually aligned with the updated branding and shows signs of increased conversion. Several experiments have been conducted in the app to test a more personalized onboarding process based on users' individual needs—an approach that enables faster insights and continued optimization. The improved flows contribute to increased activation, stronger engagement and, in the long run, higher conversion.

"Powered by Sleep Cycle"

- Growth through partnerships and technology

The core of Sleep Cycle's offering is the company's own technology platform – built on soundbased AI and over three billion nights analyzed. Through Powered by Sleep Cycle, this technology is made available to partners, enabling new license-based revenue streams and a broader market presence.

Sleep SDK launched

In September, the Sleep SDK was launched, a development platform that allows partners to integrate Sleep Cycle's audio-based sleep analysis directly into their own products and services. The technology enables contactless measurement of sleep and breathing in real time and is based on the same AI model used in the Sleep Cycle app, thereby enriching and diversifying the customer experiences of partners. We are seeing growing interest in sleep from other health apps, wearables, and health ecosystems that can access our audio-based sleep analysis.

Licensing Strategy

Sleep SDK forms the basis of Sleep Cycle's technology licensing. Through collaborations with external brands, we create new revenue streams beyond the app business, where our technology becomes part of others' ecosystems.

Growing partnerships

Partnership revenue refers to commercial collaborations where the Sleep Cycle app is made available as part of a partner's customer offering, such as in the health and wellness sector. In these cases, the cost is borne by the partner rather than the end user, creating new revenue streams outside of the traditional consumer business.

The existing partnerships within the Sleep Cycle app continue to develop well, confirming the strength of Sleep Cycle's technology and brand. The collaborations contribute both to increased revenues and to broadening the company's presence in the digital health economy.

From sleep analysis to medical innovation

Sleep Cycle is developing an AI-based solution for screening obstructive sleep apnea—a global public health problem that affects nearly one billion people. With a smartphone-based technology, we aim to make diagnostics more accessible, affordable and scalable.

A great medical need

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a chronic disease associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and reduced quality of life. Today, over 80 percent of cases are undiagnosed, and access to care is limited. The market for home-based screening is expected to grow from approximately USD 700 million in 2025 to close to USD 1 billion in 2035.

AI that measures breathing without sensors

Sleep Cycle's solution is based on our proprietary sound-based AI technology that interprets subtle breathing patterns during sleep – without any external hardware. The technology is based on billions of data points from user sleep and extensive polysomnographic data, and has been developed to meet medical standards.

In June 2025, Sleep Cycle's clinical trial began with over 700 participants, with the aim of validating the AI model's ability to identify sleep apnea. During the third quarter, around 20 percent of the study was completed, marking an important milestone on the road to medical certification.

Towards a broader business and new revenue streams

The future product is expected to be offered both as part of the Sleep Cycle app and through licensing to healthcare market operators and technology partners. The initiative is a central part of our strategy to create more revenue streams and position Sleep Cycle as a leading player in digital sleep and health technology.

Growth through innovation

Sleep Cycle's mission is to improve global health by helping people sleep better. In 2024, we launched an updated business strategy. It takes off from the trends that drive the market and creates opportunities for Sleep Cycle to achieve strong and profitable growth.

Increased focus on health and well-being, understanding the importance of sleep to people's well-being, and the increased acceptance of subscription-based applications are all examples of structural global trends driving the sleep health market.

Sleep Cycle's strategy consists of three main areas – User Growth, User engagement, and Platform & Data – within which we implement a range of tactical activities to achieve our goals. The new strategy aims to aggressively focus on increased growth and to explore new revenue streams based on the unique technology and vast amount of data Sleep Cycle possesses.

Our strategy has an aggressive objective: Doubled income over the medium term with an annual profitability of at least 25% operating margin. With a strong core business as a foundation and a competent team, we are convinced that these goals can be achieved.

Strategic focus areas

This strategic initiative focuses on increasing visibility in earned channels through media exposure, simplified onboarding, continuous branding, new pricing strategy, and product development. 80 percent of new users come from recommendations, which demonstrates the product's quality and strong reputation.

Partnerships play a central role in reaching new customer segments and growing the user base, with tailored approaches to maximize performance for both the company and our partners.

USER GROWTH USER ENGAGEMENT PLATFORM AND DATA

Retaining users is crucial to our subscription-based business model, and active users mean increased retention opportunities. This part of the strategy focuses on developing our capabilities to improve data quality and further increase trust in Sleep Cycle. There are many meeting points along the customer journey where we can help our users not only to create good habits, but also to maintain them. In this work, personalization is key. Launches such as Sleep Stages are a clear example of how we employ our unique technology and collected data to make Sleep Cycle an important part of people's everyday lives and contribute to their well-being. This type of personalized functionality increases user engagement and is also important for increasing conversion to paying users.

Sleep Cycle's platform processes over 300,000 hours of sleep data every hour. This means a large volume of health data that in itself has great value but also enables product improvements and business opportunities.

The new technology behind Sleep Stages combines sound analysis of respiratory patterns and movements with AI and machine learning based on extensive polysomnographic data. This unique technology is also used to explore solutions for breathing disorders, such as sleep apnea, which is a major public health problem.

Thanks to our proprietary technology, Sleep Cycle has full control over the platform and its use, creating opportunities to broaden our commercial offering – something we strive to further develop.

Notes

Note 1 General information

The address of the company's registered office is Drakegatan 10, 412 50 Gothenburg, Sweden. Sleep Cycle is developing one of the world's most widely used sleep platforms. Sleep Cycle's sleep solutions help users fall asleep more easily, measure sleep habits and improve sleep and with the extensive sleep database contribute to improved sleep habits and increased sleep awareness worldwide. The business is essentially conducted in the parent company. The parent company's holding of shares in group companies as of September 30, 2025 consists of the wholly owned subsidiary Sleep Cycle Sverige AB (559278–9688). Sleep Cycle's interim report for Jan-Sep 2025 was approved for publication on October 24 per Board decision on October 23, 2025.

Note 2 Accounting principles

The consolidated financial statement for Sleep Cycle AB has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act (ÅRL) and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's RFR 1 "Supplementary accounting rules for groups". The parent company's financial statements are prepared in

accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2, "Accounting for Legal Entities." This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting." Disclosures in accordance with IAS 34 are provided in notes as well as elsewhere in the interim report. The accounting principles and calculation methods applied are in accordance with those described in the annual report for 2024. New standards and interpretations that came into force on January 1, 2025 have not had any effect on the group's or the parent company's financial reports for the interim period.

Note 3 Segment information

Sleep Cycle's CEO, as the most senior executive decision-maker, monitors and analyses profit and loss and the financial position of the group in its entirety. The CEO does not track results at a level lower than the Group as a whole. The CEO thereby also decides on allocation of resources, and makes strategic decisions based on the Group as a whole. Based on the above analysis, which is itself based on IFRS 8, it is concluded that the Sleep Cycle group consists of a single reporting segment.

Definitions of key performance indicators and calculations

Sleep Cycle applies the guidelines for alternative key performance indicators issued by ESMA. This report presents certain financial key performance ratios, including alternative key performance indicators which are not defined under IFRS. The Company considers these key performance indicators an important complement, as they facilitate a better evaluation of the Company's financial trends. These financial indicators should not be assessed independently or considered substitutes for performance indicators calculated in accordance with IFRS. In addition, such key performance indicators, as defined by Sleep Cycle, should not be compared with other key performance indicators with similar names utilized by other companies. This is because the key performance indicators below are not always defined in the same way, and other companies may calculate them differently than Sleep Cycle.

Auditor's report

To the Board of directors in Sleep Cycle AB (publ), corporate identity number 556614-7368

Introduction

We have conducted a limited review of the condensed interim financial information (interim report) for Sleep Cycle AB (publ) as of September 30, 2025, and the nine-month period ending on that date. The board of directors and the managing director are responsible for preparing and presenting this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim report based on our limited review.

The focus and scope of the limited review

We have conducted our limited review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity." A limited review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, performing analytical procedures, and other review procedures. A limited review has a different focus and a significantly smaller scope compared to the focus and scope of an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and generally accepted auditing standards. The review procedures taken in a limited review do not enable us to obtain the assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might have been identified in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed based on a limited review does not have the assurance that a conclusion expressed based on an audit has.

Conclusion

Based on our limited review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report is not, in all material respects, prepared for the group in accordance with IAS 34 and the Annual Accounts Act and for the parent company in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.
