Scaling with confidence

The first quarter of 2026 saw accelerated commercial execution in anticipation of FDA clearance of our expanded ASTar® panel which was received on April 15.

ASTar now offers by far the most comprehensive rapid phenotypic AST panel available in the market, providing approximately twice the number of drug–bug combinations compared with

the next closest competitor in the U.S. Importantly, the panel includes a number of antibiotics and pathogens that are entirely unique to ASTar, reinforcing our leadership in addressing antimicrobial resistance challenges and supporting more confident, earlier clinical decision-making.

Commercial momentum in the U.S. has been building up towards clearance. ASTar went live in Florida during Q1 2026 and in parallel, we have established approximately half a dozen additional U.S. evaluations in anticipation of v2 clearance. We are now actively engaged in contracting discussions with customers who had been awaiting the expanded menu before moving forward. This pent-up demand provides strong visibility into placements later in the year as contracting processes conclude.

Outside the U.S., progress across Europe and the Middle East remains robust. Three contracts in Italy were completed during April, converting a backlog from Q1, and we expect an additional Italian contract in the coming weeks. We signed our first contract in Austria, with installation and go-live planned for May. Activity across Greece, Turkey, and the broader Balkans region has increased materially.

In the Gulf region, we shipped two additional instruments to Saudi Arabia. While certain customer project timelines have been affected by the broader regional situation, we are working closely with our partner AMICO to support hospitals across the GCC. The project in Kuwait has been most impacted from a logistics standpoint; however, we received a successful evaluation and report from the Kuwaiti Ministry of Health and will proceed once conditions allow.

We are now supporting multi-hospital projects in both Ukraine and Vietnam, with expected purchasing decisions during 2026. In parallel, the Asian sub-continent remains highly active, with discussions underway in India, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka—regions with a particularly high burden of antimicrobial resistance. In the UK, two new projects were initiated during the quarter as AMR remains a

priority for the NHS despite a challenging fiscal environment for the hospitals.

Following successful conversions of previous Accelerate Pheno users to ASTar, we are now seeing our first requests to switch from other on-market systems. In addition to the breadth of the ASTar panel, customers consistently highlight the simplicity of the workflow, requiring less than two minutes of technician time, with flexibility to load samples either in batches or continuously around the clock. For resource-constrained labs, this is a major factor in platform selection.

Consumables usage continued to build as our installed base grows. March was a record month for global shipments. Italy and the GCC were the main contributors, with U.S. usage expected to increase further through the second quarter as additional instruments come online.

Our operations team completed the transition to fully internal production of consumables at the start of the year, resulting in a significant reduction in cost of goods sold. Additional COGS initiatives are underway, reflecting our increasing confidence in forecasted volumes for both instruments and consumables through 2026 and 2027. We also successfully completed our organisational restructuring, delivering annual run-rate savings in excess of SEK 16 million. These savings are already visible, with average monthly operating expenses of approximately SEK 11 million during the quarter, expected to trend lower through Q2. Consolidation of our Uppsala offices will be completed during the second quarter, yielding further cost savings and benefits from closer cross-functional collaboration.

Looking ahead, our primary focus is now on converting the U.S. customer pipeline that has accumulated ahead of the expanded panel clearance. Visibility for placements in the second half of the year is strong, with timing largely dependent on customer-specific contracting processes. During Q3 2026, we plan to launch a dedicated Isolate Kit to enable efficient rapid AST testing from isolates for RUO applications. At ESCMID in Munich during April, six posters were presented by Q-linea and our customers, with three highlighting the advantages of ASTar in supporting rapid AST from isolates.

Finally, our close collaboration with leading pharmaceutical companies continues to yield strong results, particularly for next-generation antibiotics. The unique ASTar disc design—with 336 wells compared to the industry-standard 96-well plates—provides unmatched flexibility to expand the panel without compromise.

We enter the remainder of 2026 with growing commercial traction, a strengthened cost base, and a clear focus on execution.

Uppsala, 29 April 2026, Stuart Gander, CEO

ABOUT Q-LINEA

Q-linea in brief

Q-linea is a world leader in developing technologies for rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST), used in the diagnosis of time-critical medical conditions such as bloodstream infections and sepsis. Hospitals use ASTar® to significantly reduce the time to optimal antibiotic treatment and ensure that patients receive the right therapy, at the right dose, at the right time. We help enable sustainable healthcare—now and in the future—and safeguard the effectiveness of antibiotics for generations to come. Q-linea is headquartered in Uppsala, Sweden, with regional offices in Italy and the United States, as well as a network of partners across Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

Sepsis in brief

Sepsis is a life-threatening condition where the host's immune system overreacts to an infection, causing damage to the body's tissues and organs. Bacterial Bloodstream Infections (BSIs) are a common cause of sepsis. The underlying infection must be treated as soon as possible to minimise harm. Research has shown that each hour of delayed appropriate antimicrobial therapy reduces a patient's chances of survival and increases the risk of longterm complications. Treatment success depends on optimising antimicrobial therapies with guidance from AST.

About ASTar – enabling better care

ASTar is a user friendly, fully automated, phenotypic rapid AST system that delivers actionable results faster than traditional AST methods. The ASTar Instrument and ASTar BC G- Kit test the susceptibility of Gram-negative bacteria, including fastidious species, against a broad spectrum of antibiotics, and deliver a comprehensive report of detailed

treatment options clinicians use to optimise patient treatments.

Vision

Q-linea helps to save lives by ensuring antibiotics continue to be an effective treatment for future generations.

Business concept

Q-linea provides a full diagnostic platform solution that has been FDA and CE-IVDR cleared for use in clinical laboratories. The ASTar® solution enables improved patient outcomes while reducing hospital costs for the treatment of blood stream infections.

Strategy

Q-linea has built up robust competence and infrastructure to develop, manufacture and supply integrated diagnostics systems. Sales are made directly and via partners, with the majority of income expected to come from sales of consumables. The Company focuses on markets with high antibiotic resistance, healthcare systems with sound finances and the ability to deploy new technologies.

Expanded ASTar menu now FDA cleared for US market

As of April 2026, Q-linea is able to provide customers in the US with the most comprehensive panel for gram-negative blood culture available on the market.

Data from the clinical trial was submitted in October 2025, with approximately six months of review and iteration with the FDA before formal clearance was granted. This short review time is a reflection of the strong underlying performance data of the ASTar platform.

During the past 6 – 9 months, most US customers interested in adopting ASTar have indicated a preference to wait for the 'version 2' panel to be approved. While some customers were willing to implement ASTar on the original panel, this increased the burden for labs to validate results and manage their clinical teams.

With formal approval, the commercial team has immediately initiated discussions with several dozen customers who have indicated interest in ASTar, including several labs which have already evaluated and selected ASTar over market alternatives.

ASTar already provides labs with the most efficient and reliable workflow for rapid AST, and

the expanded menu further cements its position as the gold-standard for rapid AST with the strongest overall value proposition.

We anticipate this will accelerate US market adoption through the remainder of 2026.

ASTar on the global stage

In addition to continued heavy focus in the US market in anticipation of FDA clearance, the Q-linea team has been engaged with interested customers around the world.

A total of seven ASTar instruments were shipped during Q1 2026 to customers in four countries, including the first installation for routine clinical use in the DACH region, and two units into Saudi Arabia that are expected to deploy clinically during 2026.

Q-linea is now working actively with customers across the US, Europe, Middle East and Asia with notable multi-site projects in Eastern Europe and Southeast Asia that are expected to make decisions during 2026. These conversations reinforce our view that ASTar is seen as the systemof-reference for rapid AST around the world, setting the standard for technological functionality and clinical utility.

Q-linea continues to work closely with active ASTar customers to increase use of testing across their site. Italy has seen a steady increase in test-per-instrument usage as hospitals become more familiar with the utility of rapid AST. Tight hospital budgets often constrain testing compared to underlying patient needs but the positive clinical and economic benefits of ASTar are becoming better understood, leading to wider use of rapid AST.

We anticipate that our early US customers will increase their monthly usage following FDA clearance as more of the panel is now available for clinical testing.

Growing evidence of impact

Q-linea was present at major global microbiology scientific conferences in the US (IMARI, Jan 2026) and in the EMEA region (WHX Health, Feb 2026, AMCLI, Mar 2026 and ESCMID, Apr 2026) along with several smaller regional shows. These provide an opportunity to engage with hundreds of clinicians and researchers to discuss rapid AST in clinical practice and introduce ASTar.

So far this year, Q-linea has authored or supported our customers in preparing a dozen clinical publications which are presented as posters or presentations at these events or as webinars. Most recently at ESCMID, three of these posters highlighted the potential for ASTar to support testing of non-blood infections in critical patients in addition to a presentation by a US customer highlighting chart analysis that demonstrates ASTar can provide more accurate therapeutic decisions compared to both standard of care and molecular rapid diagnostic systems.

Two publications in highly-regarded journals were released during ESCMID, including a paper authored by ASTar users in the US (see below), and another manuscript published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) on behalf of the FAST Study sponsored by bioMérieux which describes patient benefits from rapid AST and makes a call-to-action for adoption of rapid AST on behalf of patients.

ABSTRACT Bloodstream infections (BSIs) caused by Gram-negative bacteria are aleading cause of sepsis and mortality, underscoring the need for rapid, reliable antimicro-bial susceptibility testing (AST) to guide targeted therapy. We evaluated the analyti-cal performance, turnaround time, and potential clinical impact of the ASTar System(Q-linea), an automated rapid phenotypic AST platform that reports minimum inhibitoryconcentration-based results directly from positive blood cultures. A total of 76 prospec-tive clinical and 32 antibiotic-resistant spectmens from the CDC & FDA AR isolate Bankselected to represent diverse and well-characterized resistance profiles were tested andcompared with the Standard-of-Care (SoC) MicroScan-WalkAway method using 2021FDA STIC breakpoints. ASTar demonstrated essential and categorical agreement of 98.4%and 99,3% with SoC for clinical isolates, and 95.4% and 97.0% for CDC & FDA AR isolateBank specimens, respectively. The median turnaround time for ASTar results was 12.1h compared with 51.2 h for SoC (P < 0.0001). Clinician-led retrospective chart reviewindicated earlier ASTar results could have influenced antimicrobial therapy in 83% ofcases, enabling de-escalation in 66.2%, escalation in 13.8%, adjustment of route ofadministration in 15.4%, potential dose adjustment in 1.5%, and confirmation of theongoing empiric therapy in 16.9%, with anticipated benefits, such as reduced antibiotic-related side effects in 47.7%, decreased antibiotic exposure in 46.2%, earlier dischargeon oral therapy in 32.3%, correction of ineffective empiric therapy, and reduced lengthof stay, were each anticipated in 21.5% and 15.4% of cases, respectively. These findingssupport the use of ASTar to Improve the management of Gram-negative BSIs throughfaster, targeted antimicrobial therapy.
IMPORTANCE Delays in antimicrobial susceptibility testing for Gram-negative blood-stream infections prolong empiric broad-spectrum therapy and can worsen clinicaloutcomes. This study presents data on the analytical performance, turnaround time,and potential clinical impact of the ASTar System for rapid antimicrobial susceptibilitytesting of Gram-negative bloodstream infections. The comparison of ASTar results witha Standard of Care method offers data to support clinical laboratories in assessingrapid phenotypic AST platforms, such as ASTar, their role in antimicrobial stewardship,and possible workflow adjustments for faster, targeted therapy in the management of Editor Monika Kumaraswams, The University ofTexas at Tyler, Tyler, Texas, USAAddress comergendance to Manohar Mutnal,

Accounting policies and notes

Note 1 Accounting policies

Q-linea has prepared consolidated financial statements in accordance with the IFRS issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as adopted by the EU.

The accounting policies applied in this interim report are the same as the policies applied and described in the 2025 Annual Report and the significant estimates and judgements described in the Annual Report have not changed significantly during the period.

Parent Company accounting policies

The Parent Company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act (1995:1554) and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2, Accounting for Legal Entities. RFR 2 means that IFRS is applied with certain limitations.

According to RFR 2, a company, as a legal entity, can choose to apply IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, which Q-linea has chosen to do. This primarily means that certain financial instruments, which had previously been measured at cost, will now be measured at fair value.

Note 2 Specification of net sales

Note 4 Related-party transactions

Related parties are defined as owners with a significant or controlling influence, senior executives in the Company, meaning directors and members of the management team, and their close family members. Disclosures concerning transactions between the Company and other related parties are presented below. Transactions with related parties are made on market terms. In addition to the groups mentioned above, Q-linea AB's subsidiaries Q-linea Inc., Q-linea S.r.l. and NexttoQ AB are also related parties.

During the fourth quarter, the parent company made a capital contribution to Q-linea S.r.l. of EUR 230 thousand (200), which was recognised as SEK 2,458 thousand (2,198) in the Parent Company, and a capital contribution to Q-linea Inc of USD 700 thousand (650), which was recognised as SEK 6,329 thousand (6,152) in the parent company.

Note 5 Share-based remuneration programs

The employee stock option program resolved at the Annual General Meeting on June 28, 2024 (LTIP 2024/27), is as of 31 March the only program outstanding. The program was allocated during the month of October in accordance with the decision of the Annual General Meeting. The effect on earnings during the first quarter of 2026 amounts to SEK 224 thousand and consists of IFRS2 costs in full.

As of 31 December 2025, there were employee share options outstanding as follows:

Program Date range forpossible exercise Number of optionsoutstanding Total possible number of shares Exercise price (SEK)
Employee share option programme2024/2027 30 Sep. – 30 December 2027 5,393,00 8,898 2,569
Total possible number of shares 8,898

When share options are exercised, shares will first be allotted from treasury shares, then from a new issue if needed. The original exercise price of SEK 4.24 has increased to SEK 2,568 as a result of the new share issues carried out in 2025. The share issues have also affected the terms so that each option now entitles the holder to subscribe for 0.00165 shares, compared with the original right of 1 share per option.

Note 6 Inventories

Note 8 Earnings per share

Earnings per share are calculated by dividing the result for the period by a weighted average of the number of ordinary shares outstanding, excluding holdings of treasury shares, during the period. The weighted number of outstanding shares has been adjusted for the 1,000:1 reverse split carried out in July 2025.

Earnings per share before and after dilution (SEK) -1,77 -20,09 -27.40

Note 9 Risk management

The Company is exposed to various types of risks during the course of its operations. By creating an awareness of the risks associated with the operations, such risks can be limited, controlled and managed while allowing business opportunities to be utilised in order to increase the Company's earnings.

Material risks associated with Q-linea's operations are presented in the Annual Report for the 1 January to 31 December 2025 financial year.

Note 10 Definition of performance measures

In this financial report, Q-linea presents certain alternative performance measures that are not defined in accordance with IFRS. These performance measures are generic and are often used for the purpose of analysing and comparing different companies. Accordingly, the Company believes that these alternative performance measures serve as an important supplement to enable readers to conduct a quick overview and assessment of Q-linea's financial situation.

These alternative performance measures are not to be considered independent and are not deemed to replace the performance measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. Moreover, such performance measures, as defined by Q-linea, are not to be compared with other performance measures with similar names used by other companies. This is because the above performance measures have not always been defined in the same way and because other companies may not calculate them in the same way as Q-linea.

The performance measures "Net sales", "Result for the period", "Earnings per share" and "Cash flow from operating activities" are defined in accordance with IFRS.

Performancemeasure Definition Purpose
EBITDA Operating result before depreciation/amortisation andimpairment. This performance measure provides an overall viewof profit for the operating activities.
Operating result(EBIT) Result before financial items according to the incomestatement. This earnings measurement is used for externalcomparisons.
Equity/assetsratio, % Equity in relation to total assets. This performance measure shows the amount of thebalance sheet that has been financed by equity and isused to measure the Company's financial position.
Debt/equity ratio Net debt divided by recognised equity according to thebalance sheet. Net debt is defined as total borrowing(comprising the items short-term borrowing and longterm borrowing in the balance sheet, includingborrowing from owners (however, lease liabilitiescalculated according to IFRS 16 are not included in netdebt) less cash and cash equivalents and short andlong-term investments. This performance measure is a measure of capitalstrength and is used to determine the relationshipbetween liabilities and equity. In the case of positiveequity, a negative debt/equity ratio means thatavailable cash and cash equivalents and short-terminvestments exceed total borrowing.
Equity per sharebefore and afterdilution Equity attributable to the Company's shareholders inrelation to the number of shares outstanding,excluding treasury shares, at the end of the period. This performance measure shows the amount of theCompany's equity that can be attributed to a share.

Note 11 Reconciliation of alternative performance measures

The following is a reconciliation of certain alternative performance measures showing the various performance measure components that make up the alternative performance measures.

The Company's holding of treasury shares has been excluded from the calculation of per-share performance measures.
