ANNUAL REPORT 2023 CodeLab Capital AS

Shareholder letter from Group CEO

Dear shareholders,

2023 has been a transformative year for the company with big events impacting the strategy, operations, and financial numbers of the CodeLab Capital group. In April last year we sold our Norwegian operations comprising of the EHR and App business units, including subsidiaries to EG. The divestment was driven by a deliberate choice to focus on the Uniscale technology, which we believe has an even higher value creation potential. We have chosen strategically to put all our efforts into unlocking the opportunities in Uniscale by having full dedication and focus on succeeding. The divestment in itself was in our view a success as we found a good new home to our previous Norwegian colleagues, handing over a market leader to a strong buyer with good synergies, and by the way of financial terms.

The transaction was done at a valuation multiple that of our share price and gave us the opportunity to repay all debts and pay out an extraordinary dividend to our shareholders. We wanted to prioritize to give something back to all our investors!

As part of our changed strategy through the year we have now gathered most of the organization in Copenhagen. Building a culture, establishing good processes and commercialization of the technology have been key focus areas. Late 2023 Uniscale launched its first product to the market. Since then, Uniscale has built up sales and CX departments, both of which are now heavily involved in day to day work of improving our commercial efforts.

As part of going from a market leader position with healthy economics, we are now more in the scale-up phase for a pre-revenue company. This requires a different mentality and mindset compared to previous years.

CodeLab Capital AS remains fully committed to support our subsidiary Uniscale, and for the foreseeable future that will be the only focus.

Obviously, the big changes have had a notable impact on our financial numbers as well. 2023 is a financial year with four months of divested businesses included. More importantly is the year-end state of the group. With a smaller organization follows lower costs, and the balance sheet is slimmed down and simplified.

Second half of 2023 we dedicated to fully focus on laying the building blocks for future success of Uniscale. This also came at an expense on our investor relations activities, but we will strive to communicate often and with transparency in everything we do to our shareholders.

2024 has started with some amazing news from the product side, and we are doing good progress commercially. We are really enthusiastic about what the future can bring, and I promise that we will do our outmost to succeed. We would like to thank you all for your support which enables us to continue our journey.

Best regards,

Kristian Ikast Chief Executive Officer CodeLab Capital AS

Board of Directors Report

Overview

CodeLab Capital AS was established in 2014 and is headquartered in Oslo, Norway. The company is listed on Euronext Growth and had year-end offices in Oslo (Norway), Copenhagen (Denmark), and Odense (Denmark).

For a long time CodeLab Capital's subsidiaries have been holding a leading EHR position in Norway and has primarily been known for their cloud solutions for health professionals. Since April 2023, following the divestment of these businesses, CodeLab Capital AS is a holding company with 100% ownership of the technology company Uniscale AS. Today, the company is making software development tools to the broader B2B-market.

Going concern

The operational and financial development of CodeLab Capital and its subsidiaries are as expected by the Board of Directors and in accordance with the companies' plans. Uniscale has achieved great progress on product development, and the current phase (2024) is more directed towards commercial efforts by reallocating investments and focus towards sales, customer experience and marketing. Uniscale is experiencing strong development on all these important parameters for success evidenced by increased commercial momentum in 2024. The Board of Directors believes the current strategy and that the abovementioned investments could create substantial value if successful. In order to continue with this path, CodeLab Capital and its subsidiaries are reliant on further capital being available. Striving for openness in the communication, CodeLab has already announced this to the market. As such, in accordance with the Accounting Act §3-3a, the Board recognises that there is a material uncertainty related to the funding of the Group that may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern.

Review of the consolidated annual accounts

The company's consolidated figures contain numbers from divested businesses in the period 01.01.2023 to 20.04.2023. It is relevant to note that both 2022 and 2023 numbers are significantly affected by divested businesses figures and don't adequately reflect the current cost and revenue base. As such the most important notes on revenue and costs in this report highlights the divested businesses' impact.

CodeLab's consolidated operating revenue for 2023 was NOK 93.8 million compared to NOK 195 million in 2022. Of the 93.8 million in 2023, 59.1 million are revenues consolidated from divested businesses, and 34.7 million are related to profit from the one-time IP sale from Uniscale AS to Patientsky SaaS Norway AS (now EG Norge AS).

Reported operating result (EBIT) for 2023 amounted to NOK 51.7 million, compared to NOK -149.2 million in 2022. CodeLab's consolidated net financial income for 2023 was NOK -24.4 million compared to -25.5 million in 2022. The financial cost for 2023 is impacted by the call price paid from early execution of the bond loan during April.

100% of the 2023 result of NOK 30 million is attributable to stockholders of the parent company.

The carrying amount of CodeLab's assets was 138.1 million in 2023, compared to NOK 914.8 million in 2022. The decline is mainly related to the divestments and their assets. Research and development decreased by 220 million during the year, of which NOK 90.3m were related to the IP sale. The period also includes a change from 10 years lifetime to 5 years lifetime for intangible assets, resulting in an accelerated depreciation of accumulated research and development. Non-current assets were NOK 76 million where total intangible assets accounted for NOK 62 million. Current assets were NOK 62.4 million whereof cash and cash equivalents represent NOK 57.2 million.

CodeLab had no long-term liabilities at the end of 2023. CodeLab's equity ratio was 97 percent at the end of 2023, compared to 66 percent at the end of 2022.

Net cash outflows from operating activities were NOK -59.3 million for the year, compared to NOK -110.1 million in 2022. The rather big deviation in 2023 compared to the operating result is due to the gains booked in connection with the divestments.

Net cash flows from investing activities were NOK 794.5 million for the year, compared to NOK -74.0 million in 2022. Cash flow from investing activities are impacted by the divestments, while NOK 37.3 million is related to R&D. There have been no/limited investments related to maintenance. The investments in R&D are expected to generate revenue over the next years but is to be considered an upfront investment with delayed returns. Net cash flow from financing activities was NOK -737.5 million for the year, compared to NOK -2.0 million in 2022. The financing activities in 2023 contained larger than usual transactions. In connection with and after the divestments the company decided to repay all bond loans to become debt free, and pay an extraordinary dividend of NOK 2.50 per share due to the accretive transaction that was made.

R&D activity

The group is actively involved in R&D activities, developing software and intellectual property. Please see note 4 for further details.

Review of the parent company's annual accounts

Operating result (EBIT) of the parent company CodeLab Capital AS for 2023 was NOK -24.6 million compared to NOK -20.1 million in 2022. Net financial expense was NOK -537.3 million for 2023 (versus NOK 32.7m in 2022), mainly driven by write down of shares in subsidiaries. Net loss for 2023 was NOK -564.9 million compared to profit of NOK 10.6 million in 2022. Total equity for the parent company following allocated profit for the year, was NOK 211.2 million at the end of 2023 (versus NOK 1,271.6m in 2022).

Net cash flow from operating activities was NOK -9.9 million for the year, compared to NOK 19.5 million in 2022. Net cash flow from investment activities was NOK 736.4 million, while net cash flow from financing activities was NOK -737.5 million for the year 2023 (the corresponding figures for 2022 were NOK -206.3m and NOK 0m respectively). The cash flow statement for 2022 follows the classification of 2023, and will thus deviate from last year's report (although the total cash flow remains unchanged).

Social responsibility and working environment

CodeLab conducts its business with strong dedication to operate in accordance with responsible, ethical, sustainable and sound business principles. The employees' well-being, health and safety in the workplace are crucial to our success as a business. We strive for equal treatment in all aspects of the organization and welcome diversity and complementary skills and personalities.

CodeLab group had 22 employees at the end of 2023. The sickness absence rate in CodeLab was 2.5 percent in 2023 (4.1 percent in 2022). No accidents or injuries occurred during the year. At the end of 2023 CodeLab had 30% female employees and 70% male employees, with many different nationalities.

There have been no environmental or personal litigations through the year. Ordinary personnel cases are part of the day-to-day operations. The working environment has changed during the year. In the first 4 months the majority of our employees was located in Oslo, Norway. After the divestment the operational activities of the Group have mainly found place in Copenhagen, Denmark. The organization consists of different teams, sitting together and collaborating. The working environment is considered good with new employees joining through second half of the year brining both competence and energy to the organization.

The board is responsible for any share incentive scheme offered to the employees.

More details on social responsibility can be found on the company's website, where the report on the Transparency Act will be published.

Insurance policy

The Company's board of directors and management are covered through a standard Directors and Officers liability insurance policy. The insurance policy covers all subsidiaries and their directors and officers. The insurance is limited to NOK 50 million.

Impact on external environment

CodeLab's activities do not directly pollute or have any negative effect on the environment. The datacenter capacity currently rented is in jurisdictions predominately operating on renewable energy sources. We will continue to advocate green solutions within our field of business.

Financial and market risks

CodeLab is exposed to liquidity risks. In order to be able finance its operations and mitigate the effects of fluctuations in cash flows, CodeLab ensures that adequate cash resources (i.e. cash and cash equivalents) are readily available by entering into financing arrangements. In case of a breach of the terms and conditions of such arrangement, a lender may be entitled to withdraw parts or all of its commitment.

Furthermore, if, for any reason or at any time, CodeLab cannot get access to liquidity on commercially acceptable terms or at all, the business, results of operations, financial condition and/or prospects of CodeLab may be materially adversely affected.

CodeLab's insurance may not cover all potential losses and liabilities. CodeLab's insurance coverage may under certain circumstances not protect CodeLab from all potential losses and liabilities that could result from its operations. The occurrence of a loss or liability against which CodeLab is not fully insured, could reduce its revenues or otherwise impair its ability to meet its financial obligations.

CodeLab is exposed to counterparty risk. CodeLab is exposed to counterparties' ability to fulfil their commitments. If a counterparty is unable to fulfil its obligations and CodeLab is forced to enter into similar arrangements with another counterparty, this may result in an increase in CodeLab's costs. If one or more of the abovementioned counterparty risks materializes, it could have an adverse effect on CodeLab's business, results of operations, financial condition and/or prospects.

CodeLab and its subsidiaries are subject to several market risks which it has limited control over. Risks include financial markets and how that impacts the evaluation of CodeLab's financial instruments, demand and adoption for the technologies that the company brings to the market, and other market risks that can impact the company's development negatively.

Events after the balance sheet date

Notable events after 31.12.2023 include the acquisition of 100% of the shares in Acerat Limited at a price of NOK 6 000 000,- And the technological breakthrough in AI-prompting announced to the market March 6th 2024. The latter could prove to be a valuable feature, although still early to conclude, that Uniscale can benefit from commercially.

Outlook 2024

2023 was a year with big changes for CodeLab Capital AS driven by the divestment of the Norwegian operations and the App business, announced in March 2023. In the latter part of 2023 and in the years to come the Board is fully committed to support our subsidiary Uniscale to succeed with its products in the market. Being able to really improve the software development business on a global scale is motivating. Now a lot of the prerequisites are in place for commercial roll-out. The board's primary objective in 2024 is to ensure that Uniscale has the necessary tools to succeed. This include both strategic direction, operational parameters and funding. The opportunity for value creation is tremendous, but there are still a lot of things and hard work that need to be in place for Uniscale to blossom.

Notes 1-21

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Accounting Principles

Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and generally accepted accounting principles in Norway (NGAAP). The consolidated financial statements are presented in NOK. The parent entity's functional currency is NOK.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the profit and loss statement, the measurement of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities on the balance sheet date. Underlying results can differ from these estimates. Key judgemental items include the useful life of R&D (5 years), capitalized costs and deferred tax assets.

Consolidation

The Group's consolidated financial statements comprise Codelab Capital AS and companies in which Codelab Capital AS has a controlling interest. A controlling interest is normally obtained when the Group owns more than 50% of the shares in the company and can exercise control over the company. Codelab Capital AS has two whollly-owned subsidiaries as of year-end 2023, Uniscale AS (functional currency NOK) and Uniscale ApS (functional currency DKK). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the same accounting principles for both parent and subsidiary. When preparing the consolidated financial statements, intra-group transactions and balances, along with gains and losses on transactions between group entiteis have been eliminated. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is obtained and consolidated until such control ceases.

Foreign currency

Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the exchange rate on the transaction date. Monetary items are translated to the year-end exchange rates. Changes in the carrying amount of such assets due to exchange rate movements between the transaction date and the balance sheet date are recognized as a foreign currency gain or loss classified as a financial item in the consolidated statement of profit or loss.

Revenue Recognition

Services are recognized as revenue as the service is delivered to the customer over the period of the customer contract. Revenue from subscription services and longer term contracts (over twelve months) is recognized evenly on a monthly basis in accordance with the customer agreement. During 2023 revenue is recognized related to the divested subsidiaries. No revenue was recognized after 30 April 2023.

Classification and valuation of current assets

Current assets consist of items that fall due for payment within one year of the balance sheet date. Initial recognition of receivables from customers and other short-term receivables is at transaction value after deducting a provision for expected losses. The provision for losses is made on the basis of an individual assessment of the respective receivables. In addition, when deemed necessary by management, an unspecified provision is made to cover expected losses on claims in respect of customer receivables. Accounts receivable are subsequently measured at amortized cost.

Leases

Leases for office space and other items are recognized as operating leases, and lease expense is recognized as the contractual amount incurred. The Group does not have any financial leases.

Research and development

Development expenses are capitalized to the extent that one can identify a future economic benefit related to the development of an identifiable intangible asset and where the acquisition cost can be measured reliably. Development related activities that do not meet these criteria are expensed as incurred. Capitalized development expenses are depreciated on a straight-line basis over its economic lifetime. Continuous impairment tests are conducted across all our R&D related activities and capitalized values, to assure that the value-in-use is intact.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment (PP&E) consists of tangible assets intended for long-term ownership and use. PP&E assets are valued at acquisition cost less depreciation and write-downs. Plant and equipment is capitalized and depreciated over the economic lifetime of the asset. Direct maintenance of plant and equipment is expensed on an ongoing basis under operating costs, while additions or improvements are added to the asset's cost price and depreciated in line with the asset. Plant and equipment is written down to the recoverable amount in the event of a fall in value that is not expected to be temporary. The recoverable amount is the higher of the net sales value and the value-in-use. Value-in-use is the present value of future cash flows related to the asset. The writedown is reversed when the basis for the write-down is no longer present.

Tax

The tax charge in the profit and loss account consists of taxes payable for the period and the change in deferred tax. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rate at 22% on the basis of tax-reducing and tax-increasing temporary differences that exist between accounting and tax values, and the tax loss carried forward at the end of the accounting year. Tax-increasing and tax-reducing temporary differences that reverse or may reverse in the same period are offset and entered net. The net deferred tax asset / liability is recognized in the balance sheet to the extent that it is likely that it can be utilized.

Share based payments

Share based payments are measured at fair value at the date of the grant and are expensed over the vesting period. The share-based payment expense takes into account attrition rates and social security tax (measured at the end of each year and depends on the options being in the money or not) and are based on the Black & Scholes valuation method. Outstanding options are standard American options with a 5-year duration.

Statement of cash flows

The cash flow statement has been prepared using the indirect method. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and bank deposits.

Option agreements

Note 3

Codelab Capital AS has entered into option agreements with several leading personnel. The vast majority of the options granted was done in 2021 and 2022. The agreements follow much of the same structure, hereunder vesting periods and strike price. All strike prices were adjusted, according to the agreement, during 2023 following the cash dividend of NOK 2,50 per share that was paid in May. The strike prices were adjusted with the same amount.

During 2023 there has been a change in the number of options granted due to option holders leaving the company representing 1 362 000 options. All such options are no longer owned by any individual and does not constitute a future possible dilution or cost. The outstanding, not exercised, numbers of options held by key employees at year end 2023 is 2 800 000 options. The different circumstances of the employees leaving have direct impact on the costs booked for the year (accelerated costs, reversal, cash settlement etc).

There has also been an adjustment to the booked costs for 2022 due to applying a different approach to the future value of the options. The differences applied in historical financials include more accurate vesting periods and grant dates per option holder and updated volatility calculations (52% vs 83% in 22 accounts).

The option scheme expense. The expense in 2023 is NOK 1 721 513. The 2023 share based payment expense was adjusted for forfeited, accelerated and expired options in the amount of NOK 418 133. The comperative amount in 2022 is NOK 2 316 510 which includes adjustments of NOK 1 705 470 to correct prior period expense recognition.

During 2023, the company cash settled 62 000 options at a cost for the company of NOK 162 500 in accordance with the specific employee agreement and taking into account the market value of the shares vs the strike price.

*Management has changed the assessment for useful life regarding the R&D costs from 2023 from 10 to 5 year. This change is accounted for prospectively and therefore has no effect on previous years.

Goodwill and Customer relations

Based on management's judgment related to business projections goodwill is expected to have useful life of 10 years. Goodwill is related to acquisitions of Infodoc AS, Acino AS, Hove Medical Systems AS and Programvareforlaget AS. Goodwill is initially measured at the acquisition date, as the excess of the aggregate of consideration transferred and the amount recognized over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill was written-off after the sale of these subsidiaries in 2023.

Customer relations was acquired at the same time as a goodwill and written-off after the sale of these subsidiaries in 2023.

R&D costs

Development expenses are capitalized to the extent that management has identified a future economic benefit related to the development of an identifiable intangible asset and where the acquisition cost can be measured reliably.

R&D additions assets reflect the company's development of Uniscale products. Out of NOK 37 305 531 capitalized R&D, NOK 21 092 088 is capitalized cost of internal employees, and NOK 16 213 443 is capitalized cost of external developers.

Going concern

The operational and financial development of CodeLab Capital and its subsidiaries are as expected by the Board of Directors and in accordance with the companies' plans. Uniscale has achieved great progress on product development, and the current phase (2024) is more directed towards commercial efforts by reallocating investments and focus towards sales, customer experience and marketing. Uniscale is experiencing strong development on all these important parameters for success evidenced by increased commercial momentum in 2024. The Board of Directors believes the current strategy and that the abovementioned investments could create substantial value if successful. In order to continue with this path, CodeLab Capital and its subsidiaries are reliant on further capital being available. Striving for openness in the communication, CodeLab has already announced this to the market. As such, in accordance with the Accounting Act §3-3a, the Board recognizes that there is a material uncertainty related to the funding of the Group that may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern.

Events after the balance sheet date

Notable events after 31.12.2023 include the acquisition of 100% of the shares in Acerat Limited at a price of NOK 6 000 000,- And the technological breakthrough in AI-prompting announced to the market March 6th 2024. The latter could prove to be a valuable feature, although still early to conclude, that Uniscale can benefit from commercially.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Accounting principles

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and generally accepted accounting principles in Norway (NGAAP).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the profit and loss statement, the measurement of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities on the balance sheet date. Underlying results can differ from these estimates.

Foreign Currency

Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the exchange rate on the transaction date. Monetary items are translated to the year-end exchange rates. Changes in the carrying amount of such assets due to exchange rate movements between the transaction date and the balance sheet date are recognized as a foreign currency gain or loss classified as a financial item in the statement of profit or loss.

Classification and valuation of current assets

Current assets consist of items that fall due for payment within one year of the balance sheet date.

Initial recognition of receivables from customers and other short-term receivables is at transaction value after deducting a provision for expected losses. The provision for losses is made on the basis of an individual assessment of the respective receivables. In addition, when deemed necessary by management, an unspecified provision is made to cover expected losses on claims in respect of customer receivables. Accounts receivable are subsequently measured at amortized cost.

Leases

Leases for office space and other items are recognized as operating leases, and lease expense is recognized as the contractual amount incurred. The Group does not have any financial leases.

Tax

The tax charge in the profit and loss account consists of taxes payable for the period and the change in deferred tax. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rate at 22% on the basis of tax-reducing and tax-increasing temporary differences that exist between accounting and tax values, and the tax loss carried forward at the end of the accounting year. Tax-increasing and tax-reducing temporary differences that reverse or may reverse in the same period are offset and entered net. The net deferred tax asset / liability is recognized in the balance sheet to the extent that it is likely that it can be utilized.

Share based payments

Share based payments are measured at fair value at the date of the grant and are expensed over the vesting period. The share-based payment expense takes into account attrition rates and social security tax (measured at the end of each year and depends on the options being in the money or not) and are based on the Black & Scholes valuation method. Outstanding options are standard American options with a 5-year duration.

Option agreements

Codelab Capital AS has entered into option agreements with several leading personnel. The vast majority of the options granted was done in 2021 and 2022. The agreements follow much of the same structure, hereunder vesting periods and strike price. All strike prices were adjusted, according to the agreement, during 2023 following the cash dividend of NOK 2,50 per share that was paid in May. The strike prices were adjusted with the same amount.

During 2023 there has been a change in the number of options granted due to option holders leaving the company representing 1 362 000 options. All such options are no longer owned by any individual and does not constitute a future possible dilution or cost. The outstanding, not exercised, numbers of options held by key employees at year end 2023 is 2 800 000 options. The different circumstances of the employees leaving have direct impact on the costs booked for the year (accelerated costs, reversal, cash settlement etc).

There has also been an adjustment to the booked costs for 2022 due to applying a different approach to the future value of the options. The differences applied in historical financials include more accurate vesting periods and grant dates per option holder and updated volatility calculations (52% vs 83% in 22 accounts).

Overview of booked costs: 2023 2022
Share based payment expenses, gross 1 303 380 4 021 980
Adjustments 2022 (1 355 555)
Accelerated, cancelled, forfeited and settled options 418 133 -349 915
Share based payment 1 721 513 2 316 510

The option scheme expense. The expense in 2023 is NOK 1 721 513. The 2023 share based payment expense was adjusted for forfeited, accelerated and expired options in the amount of NOK 418 133. The comparative amount in 2022 is NOK 2 316 510 which includes adjustments of NOK 1 705 470 to correct prior period expense recognition.

During 2023, the company cash settled 62 000 options at a cost for the company of NOK 162 500 in accordance with the specific employee agreement and taking into account the market value of the shares vs the strike price.

Sale of subsidiaries and write down of shares in subsidiaries

CodeLab Capital AS owns 100% of Uniscale AS. Uniscale AS entered into a share purchase agreement on 5 March 2023 to sell all the shares in its two wholly owned subsidiaries PatientSky SaaS Norway AS and PatientSky App AS to EG Norge AS. The transaction received clearance from the Competition Authorities in Norway on the 11th of April 2023 and was completed on 20 April 2023.

The transaction meant that CodeLab Capital's subsidiary Uniscale AS sold majority of its business and assets, including the PatientSky SaaS EHR software (with related customer contracts). Among the businesses that were sold were the operations of Hove Medical Systems, Infodoc, PatientSky SaaS Norway and PatientSky App, which all supported the primary healthcare sector in Norway, especially general practitioners, specialist doctors and physical therapists with business critical electronic health record systems.

All liabilities between the seller Uniscale AS and the buyer were settled at closing and there are no contingent liabilities, earn-outs or similar related to the divested businesses as per year end 2023.

As a consequence of the divestment, CodeLab Capital has impaired the value of the shares it holds in Uniscale AS.

For more information regarding divested business, see note 20 in the Group financial statements.

Events after the balance sheet date

Notable events after 31.12.2023 include the acquisition of 100% of the shares in Acerat Limited at a price of NOK 6 000 000,- And the technological breakthrough in AI-prompting announced to the market March 6th 2024. The latter could prove to be a valuable feature, although still early to conclude, that Uniscale AS can benefit from commercially.

43

Going concern

The operational and financial development of CodeLab Capital and its subsidiaries are as expected by the Board of Directors and in accordance with the companies' plans. Uniscale has achieved great progress on product development, and the current phase (2024) is more directed towards commercial efforts by reallocating investments and focus towards sales, customer experience and marketing. Uniscale is experiencing strong development on all these important parameters for success evidenced by increased commercial momentum in 2024. The Board of Directors believes the current strategy and that the abovementioned investments could create substantial value if successful. In order to continue with this path, CodeLab Capital and its subsidiaries are reliant on further capital being available. Striving for openness in communication, CodeLab has already announced this to the market. As such, in accordance with the Accounting Act §3-3a, the Board recognizes that there is a material uncertainty related to the funding of the Group that may cast significant doubt on the entity's ability to continue as a going concern.

Independent Auditor's Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Codelab Capital AS, which comprise:

  • the financial statements of the parent company Codelab Capital AS (the Company), which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2023, the statement of profit or loss and the statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and
  • the consolidated financial statements of Codelab Capital AS and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2023, the statement of profit or loss and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion

  • the financial statements comply with applicable statutory requirements,
  • the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2023, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and accounting standards and practices generally accepted in Norway, and
  • the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2023, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and accounting standards and practices generally accepted in Norway.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company and the Group as required by relevant laws and regulations in Norway and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 19 in the financial statements, which indicates that the Company is reliant on further capital being available to the Company and its subsidiaries. As stated in Note 19, these events or conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other Information

The Board of Directors and the Managing Director (management) are responsible for the information in the Board of Directors' report and the other information accompanying the financial statements. The other information comprises information in the annual report, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the information in the Board of Directors' report nor the other information accompanying the financial statements.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the Board of Directors' report and the other information accompanying the financial statements. The purpose is to consider if there

is material inconsistency between the Board of Directors' report and the other information accompanying the financial statements and the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or whether the Board of Directors' report and the other information accompanying the financial statements otherwise appear to be materially misstated. We are required to report if there is a material misstatement in the Board of Directors' report or the other information accompanying the financial statements. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Based on our knowledge obtained in the audit, it is our opinion that the Board of Directors' report

  • is consistent with the financial statements and
  • contains the information required by applicable statutory requirements.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and accounting standards and practices generally accepted in Norway, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's and the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern. The financial statements use the going concern basis of accounting insofar as it is not likely that the enterprise will cease operations.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.For further description of Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements reference is made to: https://revisorforeningen.no/revisjonsberetninger
