CEO Statement

Ortivus strengthens its product portfolio, and MobiMed is back in operation in the United Kingdom

The fourth quarter did indeed bring challenges related to the cyberattack in July 2023, but also positive developments, including the establishment of exciting agreements, successful implementation of our products at new customer sites, and the attainment of MDR certification. We can observe how the growing pressure and budgetary constraints in healthcare are driving the need for improved efficiency, marking the necessity for Ortivus' products and solutions.

During the quarter, we have, among other things, entered into a collaboration with the Australian software company HealthCare Software (HCS) through an exclusive distributor and support agreement for a "Controlled Drug Management" solution covering the UK and Ireland. The solution is specially developed for safe and accurate medication management within ambulance and rescue services. It has been successfully used for many years by several ambulance organisations in Australia.

During the period, we successfully restarted the electronic patient record systems that were shut down after the cyberattack that affected two British customers in July. The systems are now back in operation as the new and secure environment received final approval from the British health authority, the National Health Service (NHS).

The cyberattack had a negative impact on Ortivus' revenue for the full year, resulting in an income loss of approximately 4.2 MSEK. Additionally, the revenue was affected by a lower number of completed installation projects compared to the previous year. In the fourth quarter, revenue amounted to 19.4 MSEK with a gross margin of 28%. During the quarter, the company implemented cost-saving measures, resulting in a period loss of -2.8 MSEK.

For the year, revenue in the Nordic region remains in line with previous years and the decrease in revenue primarily stems from other European markets. The lower revenue from the rest of the world compared to the previous year is primarily explained by income generated from the implementation of the large project delivery in Singapore in 2022, which has now been completed.

As a result, the adjusted net income for the full year 2023 amounted to -7.4 MSEK, taking into account a reduced revenue of 4.2 MSEK in the UK and comparison-disturbing items corresponding to 6.5 MSEK. The comparison-disturbing items relate to restructuring costs and expenses directly related to the cyberattack. Ortivus' efforts to obtain compensation for costs incurred in connection with the cyberattack are ongoing.

Ortivus expands its product portfolio through a partnership with the company HealthCare Software. The company can now offer the "Controlled Drug Management" application to the United Kingdom and Ireland.

The cyberattack also affected Ortivus' cash flow. To support the operations during the recovery from the attack, the company has obtained an extended expiry date on the credit line from Ponderus Invest.

Despite the cyberattack, we see that our investments and efforts to increase turnover in market segments outside the ambulance sector have yielded results. The segment "Advanced Monitoring and Other," which includes primary care among others, has increased from 20% of the total turnover in 2022 to 31% in 2023.

At the end of 2023, Region Jämtland Härjedalen became Ortivus' first customer to deploy the new navigation system, MobiMed enRoute, in full operation. Close cooperation with the region enabled a rapid installation across the entire ambulance fleet. The next customer to implement MobiMed enRoute will be Region Jönköpings län, with the project set to commence in the spring. During the same period, the region will also implement Ortivus' electronic patient record system, MobiMed ePR, which was contracted simultaneously with the navigation system.

In parallel, preparations are underway for the delivery of MobiMed ePR to Estonia's ambulance

service, where a pre-pilot and pilot are expected to commence in the spring of 2024. During the same period, Ortivus will also deliver MobiMed Life, external defibrillators, to the healthcare of Region Kronoberg.

During 2023, Ortivus addressed issues with component shortages that caused delays in delivery. The company's subcontractor is managing this through alternative sources of supply, ensuring upcoming deliveries and delivery times.

Region Jämtland Härjedalen was first to implement Ortivus' new solution, MobiMed enRoute. The navigation and incident management system is now used daily in the region.

2 2 During the quarter, Ortivus received MDR certification, which means that our solutions are manufactured in accordance with the new European legislation for medical devices (MDR). MDR aims to achieve high safety and quality standards for medical devices manufactured, imported to, or sold within the EU. The products were previously certified according to MDD, which is an older directive with lower requirements. We are very proud to be one of the first Swedish manufacturers of mobile patient monitoring systems to obtain the new certificate. This also means that we can continue to compete internationally.

In the wake of the pandemic, we see how healthcare continues to struggle with financial deficits and increasingly stringent budget requirements. This increases demands on healthcare efficiency, making medical specialist expertise more accessible and freeing up resources to prioritise patient care and treatment – without compromising patient safety.

To ensure this, administrative processes need to be streamlined with modern technology, so that the right information is available at the right time and place. In other words, it is crucial that all stakeholders in the healthcare chain have access to updated patient information in real-time. Ortivus actively operates to create seamless interoperability between digital healthcare systems. All of the company's products and solutions are designed to ensure safe and efficient communication throughout the prehospital healthcare chain.

Ortivus has a broad product portfolio, and following a cyberattack with all its implications - both financial and non-financial - we now have strong momentum and look forward to a more successful 2024.

As the newly appointed CEO of the company, I also look forward to utilising Ortivus' innovative products to save vital seconds, which can indeed save lives, and contribute to the future of healthcare both in Sweden and internationally.

Alternative key figures

Ortivus applies the European Securities and Markets Authority's (ESMA) guidelines for so-called alternative performance measures (APM).

An APM is a financial measure of historical or future results development, financial position or cash flow that is not defined or specified by IFRS. The company reports a number of alternative key figures in the report, these are defined in the section "The Group's key figures".

Important estimates and assessments

Ortivus assesses that there are no estimates in the current financial statement that are associated with significant risk of notable changes in the reported amounts.

The following text describes important estimates that are associated with risk of changes in the reported values, but where the risk is not significant or where the possible adjustment is not notable or where it is not expected to affect reported values in the coming year.

Value recovery of development expenditure

The risk that balanced development expenses would not be recovered is dependent on future market potential for the developed products as well as prices and manufacturing costs that form the basis for estimates and calculations made before each development project is initiated.

Alterations in these conditions could have a significant impact on the carrying amount of the project, presented in the consolidated balance sheet.

Forward-looking statements

All forward-looking statements in this report are based on the company's best assessment at the publication time. Such statements comprise, like all future assessments, risks, and uncertainties, which may mean that the actual outcome will be different. In addition to what is required according to current legislation, forward-looking statements only apply the day they were made and Ortivus does not undertake to update any of them in case of future events or if new information is obtained.
