Significant events

• In September, XVIVO entered into an agreement to acquire 100 percent of the shares in the Dutch medical technology company Organ Assist B.V. Organ Assist focuses mainly on developing machines and consumables for perfusion of liver and kidney. Through the acquisition, XVIVO became the first company in the world who actively conducts business within preservation and evaluation of organs in all major organ areas. The acquisition accelerated the company's strategy to become a global supplier of solutions

and systems in all major organ areas. The purchase price amounted to a maximum of EUR 24 million, with an initial payment of EUR 20 million and a conditioned, additional purchase price of maximum EUR 4 million.

  • The acquisition of Organ Assist was financed through a directed share issue. Investors included both existing and new shareholders, including Bure Equity AB, Swedbank Robur, Eccenovo AB (publ.), Fjärde AP-Fonden, Lannebo Fonder and Handelsbanken Fonder. The issue took place with no discount at a subscription price of SEK 236 and the company received approximately SEK 500 million. Issuance costs amounted to SEK 13.0 million.
  • Dag Andersson was appointed new President and CEO in April and took office in June. XVIVO Perfusion's founder and former CEO, Magnus Nilsson, remains as Senior Advisor to primarily work with R&D.
  • A reorganization was carried out with the aim of creating a more efficient and successful organization. The Management Team was strengthened with a new Commercial Director, Johan Holmström and a new R&D Director Charlotte Walldal. Furthermore, the company's CFO, Christoffer Rosenblad, was appointed to a newly established position within XVIVO as Chief Operating Officer, COO. Kristoffer Nordström, XVIVO's previous Finance Manager, was appointed as new CFO. Anne-Li Sigvardsson, MSc, was appointed IP Manager (Chief Intellectual Property Officer). Andreas Wallinder, MD, PhD was appointed Chief Medical Officer.
  • The first patient in the extended PrimECC® study was included.
  • During the period, the scientific journal Nature Communications published an article describing the company's heart preservation technology and showing the method is safe.
  • The further developed and more user-friendly Perfadex® Plus with Click Port was launched worldwide.
  • AKH University Hospital in Vienna, Austria, which is one of the three largest lung transplant clinics in Europe, purchased an XPS™. An XPS™ was, for the first time, sold to a paediatric (children's) hospital in Rome, Italy. At the end of the period, 54 clinics world-wide had access to XPS, LS or LS™.
  • The application period for warrant program for employees series 2020/2022 expired on September 23 and a total of 374,000 warrants were subscribed for.

CEO'S COMMENTS

ful year in several respects. A new management team was appointed during the year and a strategy set for 2025 was launched. There is now a clear and distinct plan for how XVIVO will continue to grow profitably in the coming years and become an even stronger player in

For XVIVO, 2020 was a success-

the transplant area.

In September, we acquired an exciting Dutch company, Organ Assist, active primarily in machine preservation of liver and kidney. The acquisition means that we can now address all major organ areas. Of all organs that are transplanted annually, the lung and heart account for 10 percent and the kidney and liver for 88 percent.

Evidence of the strong confidence in XVIVO and the company's strategy was shown not least in connection with the autumn's successful raising of capital, when the company's ownership base was strengthened and broadened.

Sales and EBITDA

Our sales were affected negatively by the COVID-19 pandemic from the second quarter onwards. Elective care in the form of planned operations was downgraded in large parts of the world, which also affected transplant operations. At the beginning of the third quarter, however, we were able to notice a recovery that contributed to total net sales for the full year amounting to SEK 180 million (221).

For the fourth quarter, total net sales amounted to SEK 60 million, compared with SEK 62 million the previous year. Net sales of non-durable goods amounted to SEK 55 million (59), which meant a decrease of 2 percent in local currency compared with the same quarter last year. Sales within our new business area Abdominal (products in liver and kidney) reached an "all time high" during the quarter and amounted to SEK 17 million. This bodes well for the future and confirms the importance of the acquisition we have made. The quarter's EBITDA, adjusted for costs relating to the issue of warrants for employees outside Sweden and integration costs attributable to acquisitions, amounted to SEK 7 million. This corresponds to an EBITDA margin of 11 percent (13), which correlates to the adjusted margin for the year of 11 percent. This is strong considered the challenges that the pandemic has brought to the global health care.

It is my belief that we will have to live with the reality that the pandemic brings for a large part of 2021. We have an ambitious commercial plan for the full year, but should expect that 2021 will start weaker than a normal year, then gradually increase in conjunction with the recovery of the global transplant industry.

Research and Development

In 2021, we intend to increase investments in R&D more than we have done in any previous year. We have several prioritized projects underway. The clinical studies linked to our heart project started during the fourth quarter with recruitments of patients in both Belgium and Sweden.

Another very interesting advance in research was highlighted in an article published in the prestigious scientific journal, The Lancet, this autumn. The article shows that oxygenated perfusion of kidneys using XVIVO's products during transport to the hospital has a significant positive impact on first-year results after transplantation. The researchers found that in the group with oxygenated perfusion, significantly fewer patients lost kidney function completely after transplantation, only 3 percent compared to 10 percent in the group that did not receive this treatment. A goal during 2021 is that we will launch the kidney transport unit that made these good results possible in the study.

New brand platform

In 2021, there will also be important changes in our brand platform and in our brand guidelines. As a consequence of the acquisition of Organ Assist, we must have a platform and visual identity that clearly shows that the new XVIVO has machines and solutions for all significant organs.

As I wrote in my CEO's comments for the second quarter of 2020, I am very impressed with the high competence and the strong commitment that characterizes the organization. It has been a very rewarding year for me as CEO and I look forward to continuing to develop the company together with all of my colleagues. In 2020, the organization has been strengthened in several areas. Sales resources have been added in North America, Europe and China. The R&D organization has been strengthened to ensure the delivery of the projects that we prioritize.

Priorities 2021

I would like to end my CEO's speech by mentioning our priorities for 2021:

  • The integration of Organ Assist with a focus primarily on ensuring that the entire sales organization can handle our more complete range of machines and solutions for all major organ areas.
  • The heart studies have begun in Europe and are also expected to begin in the USA and Australia during the first half of this year.
  • The goal is to obtain FDA-approval for the oxygenated kidney transport unit in Europe and North America. We are convinced that there is great potential in this product.
  • The ambition to continue with strategic price adjustments remains. We will raise prices in 2021 for our entire range and thereby ensure continued great margins on our products.

We will also work with improvements related to our lung machine platform. Our current machine, XPS, which is used in connection with warm perfusion of lungs, will be upgraded. We will also launch the machine (Lung Assist) that Organ Assist has developed, and which is a less integrated but also cheaper machine for lung perfusion.

Dag Andersson CEO

FOURTH QUARTER 2020 (OCTOBER - DECEMBER)

Net Sales and gross margin

The Covid-19 pandemic continued to have an impact on sales during the fourth quarter, primarily in the business area Thoracic and the sales relating to machine perfusion used in lung

transplants. The decline in lung transplants has mainly been due to the extent to which the Covid-19 pandemic has affected intensive care in the various markets. In the fourth quarter, XVIVO for the first time presents sales from the new business area Abdominal, which includes kidney and liver transplants. The number of transplants for abdominal organs have not been affected to the same extent by the pandemic.

EBITDA for the period October - December 2020 has been affected by costs amounting to SEK 13.2 million for the share-based incentive program for employees outside Sweden and costs for reorganization and integration. Adjusted for these costs, EBITDA for the period amounted to SEK 6.8 million (8.3), corresponding to an EBITDA margin of 11 (13) percent. For the period January-December 2020, EBITDA, adjusted for these cost types, amounted to SEK 20.2 million (35.8), corresponding to an EBITDA-margin of 11 percent (16).

Total net sales (incl. durable goods) in the quarter amounted to SEK 60.3 (62.4) million, corresponding to a decrease by 3 percent in SEK and an increase by 2 percent in local currency. Net sales of non-durable goods* in the quarter amounted to SEK 55.0 (59.4) million, corresponding a decrease by 8 percent in SEK and a decrease by 2 percent in local currency. The business area Thoracic decreased net sales by 25 percent in Iocal currency. Business area Abdominal performed well and contributed with an acquired growth in total sales (including durable goods) of 26 percent in Iocal currency.

Sales from machine perfusion** represented 57 percent (51) of total sales and 52 percent (48) of sales of non-durable goods. Static preservation and other sales represented the remaining share of sales.

The total gross margin during the quarter was 69 (73) percent. The decrease is primarily explained by the fact that the business area Abdominal has lower margins than Thoracic, and a change in product mix (higher share sales of durable goods). The gross margin for non-durable goods during the quarter was 72 (77) percent. This decrease is also primarily explained by lower margins in the Abdominal area.

Thoracic

Total net sales during the quarter amounted to 43.7 (62.4) million, corresponding to a decreased by 30 percent in SEK and 25 percent in local currency. Net sales of non-durable goods* in the quarter amounted to SEK 41.1 (59.4) million, corresponding to a decrease by 31 percent in SEK and 26 percent in local currency.

Sales from machine perfusion** represented 40 percent (51) of total net sales and 36 percent (48) of sales of non-durable goods. Static preservation and other sales represented the remaining share of sales.

The total gross margin during the quarter was 76 (73) percent. The gross margin for non-durable goods during the quarter was 80 (77) percent. The increase is primarily explained by a change in product mix with a lower share of sales from machine perfusion.

Abdominal

Total net sales during the quarter amounted to 16.6 (-) million. Net sales of non-durable goods* in the quarter amounted to SEK 13.9 (-) million. Net sales of durable goods in the quarter amounted to SEK 2.7 (-) million. All sales relate to machine perfusion.

The total gross margin during the quarter was 48 (-) percent. The gross margin for non-durable goods during the quarter was 50 (-) percent and the gross margin for durable goods was 41 (-) percent.

Income

During the quarter, operating income before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) was affected by costs for a share-based

* See note 3 for revenue per segment ** See page 19 Glossary for definitions

bonus program for employees outside Sweden of SEK 8.3 million and integration costs of SEK 4.9 million. Adjusted for these costs, the company reported an EBITDA for the quarter of SEK 6.8 (8.3) million, corresponding to a positive EBITDA margin of 11 percent (13). Reported operating income before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) amounted to SEK -6.5 (8.5) million corresponding to an EBITDA margin of -11 percent (14).

Operating income (EBIT) amounted to SEK -14.3 (1.6) million, after depreciation and amortization of SEK 7.8 (6.9) million. Adjusted for the above-mentioned specific costs, operating profit amounted to SEK -1.0 million (1.4).

Selling expenses in relation to sales for the quarter amounted to 32 percent (29) as fixed costs such as personnel costs were not reduced in relation to the reduced sales. The company has been able to maintain good activity in its marketing initiatives, whereby no furlough has been justified. R&D costs amounted to 26 percent (29) of sales. The decrease is explained by more distinct priorities in the development projects. Administrative expenses amounted to 19 percent (11) of sales, primarily relating to integration costs.

Other operating revenues and expenses, net, during the quarter amounted to SEK -9.4 (-0.5) million. The item consists primarily of costs for a share-based incentive program for employees outside Sweden, SEK -8.3 million. The remaining part consists primarily of exchange rate translation effects. See note 4 for more information.

Financial income and expenses, net, for the quarter amounted to SEK -11.6 million (-3.8). The increase is due to a stronger Swedish krona and its impact on exchange rate conversions in cash and cash equivalents.

During the quarter, SEK 18.9 (17.6) million of the development costs were capitalized as an intangible asset. SEK 12.8 (14.4) million was attributable to investments in the heart preservation project, SEK 3.9 (-) was attributable to investments in abdominal projects, SEK 0.2 (2.1) million was attributable to PrimECC and SEK 2.0 (1.1) million was attributable to product development of the rest of the product portfolio. Amortization of capitalized development costs for the quarter amounted to SEK 5.1 (3.9) million, of which SEK 3.9 (3.9) million was attributable to amortization of capitalized development costs for regulatory approvals for products within lung transplantation.

Cash flow

Cash flow from operating activities during the quarter amounted to SEK -22.0 (-7.2) million, primarily as a result of payments of acquired operating liabilities in Organ Assist and integration costs relating to the acquisition. Cash flow from investing activities amounted to SEK -222.2 (-26.3) million, of which -201.3 relates to the acquisition of Organ Assist. SEK -19.7 (-18.8) million was invested in intangible assets and SEK -0.8 (-7.4) million was invested in tangible assets. Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK -1.7 (-0,1) million net. Exchange rate

differences in cash and cash equivalents had a negative effect on cash flow for the quarter of SEK -8.2 million (-3.5). Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the quarter amounted to SEK 354.2 (160.0) million.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE QUARTER

First patient in the European Heart Preservation study was transplanted

The first patient in XVIVOs European Heart preservation study was transplanted during the month of November. The patent protected Heart Preservation device, developed by Professor Stig Steen and commercialized by XVIVO, uses a novel technique for preservation of the donor heart during transport. Nine European transplant centers will include a total of 202 patients in the trial that forms the basis of a European regulatory approval application and will investigate if the new technology can improve patient outcome and reduce complications after heart transplantation.

Publication in The Lancet shows better survival of transplanted kidneys after cold machine perfusion with oxygen

In November, a study was published in the scientific journal The Lancet that shows that oxygenated perfusion of kidneys before transplantation has a significant impact on the first-year result after transplantation: less graft failure, better function and lower rejection of the kidney when compared to cold perfusion alone. The randomized trial, with kidneys aged 50 years or older, donated after circulatory death, was performed in 19 European transplant centers and included 212 patients. The technology used in the study is CE-marked and XVIVO intends to submit an application during 2021 to the FDA, whose approval is required to enable a launch in the US market.

New board members elected

On the extraordinary general meeting held on October 14, 2020, Lars Henriksson and Lena Höglund were elected as new members of the board. Dag Andersson left the board as a result of his appointment as a CEO and President during the second quarter.

THE PERIOD 2020 (JANUARY - DECEMBER)

Net Sales and gross margin

The Covid-19 pandemic continued to have an impact on sales during the fourth quarter, primarily in the business area Thoracic and the sales relating to lung transplants. During March, April and May, the decline was substantial. After the summer months, which normally involve somewhat lower activity, some recovery has taken place in the more important markets. The decline in lung transplants has mainly been due to the extent to which the Covid-19 pandemic has affected intensive care in the various markets. The business area Abdominal has not been affected to the same extent.

Total net sales (incl. durable goods) in the period amounted to SEK 179.9 (220.8) million, corresponding to decrease by 19 percent in SEK and 17 percent in local currency. Net sales of nondurable goods* in the period amounted to SEK 169.4 (206.9) million, corresponding to a decrease by 18 percent in SEK and 16 percent in local currency. The business area Thoracic decreased by 24 percent in Iocal currency. Business area Abdominal performed well and contributed with an acquired growth in total sales (including durable goods) of 7 percent in Iocal currency.

Sales from machine perfusion** represented 43 percent (48) of total sales and 40 percent (45) of sales of non-durable goods. Static preservation and other sales represented the remaining share of sales. Sales within Thoracic was affected during the period partly because fewer EVLPs were being performed in general and partly due to delays in partner projects. Within Thoracic, sales from machine perfusion** represented 38 percent of total sales and 35 percent of sales of non-durable goods. Within Abdominal, all sales relate to machine perfusion.

The total gross margin during the period was 74 (74) percent. The gross margin for non-durable goods during the period was 77 (77) percent.

The total gross margin during the period for business area Thoracic was 77 (74) percent. The gross margin for non-durable goods during the quarter was 79 (77) percent. The increase is primarily explained by a change in product mix with a lower share of sales from machine perfusion. The total gross margin during the period for business area Abdominal was 48 (-) percent. The gross margin for non-durable goods during the quarter was 50 (-) percent and the gross margin for durable goods was 41 (-) percent.

Income

Operating income before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) during the period was charged with costs associated with organizational change of SEK 9.9 million, cost reservation for the share-based bonus programs for employees outside Sweden of SEK 18.3 million, integration costs of SEK 4.9 million and acquisition costs of SEK 2.7 million. Adjusted for these specific costs of a total of SEK 35.8 million, EBITDA for the period amounts to SEK 20.2 million (35.8), corresponding to an EBITDA margin of 11 percent (16). Operating income before depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) amounted to SEK -15.6 (28.8) million, corresponding to an EBITDA margin of -9 (13) percent.

Operating income (EBIT) amounted to SEK -45.7 (3.9) million, after amortization and depreciation of SEK 30.0 (24.9) million. Adjusted for the above-mentioned specific costs, operating profit amounted to SEK -9.9 million (10.9).

As previously communicated, the company followed a cost reduction program. Variable costs, such as consulting and travel costs, were reduced during the period. In relation to sales, however, the company's total costs increased during the period when certain fixed costs such as personnel costs were not reduced in

* See note 3 for revenue per segment ** See page 19 Glossary for definitions

relation to the reduced sales, and because of recruitments for the purpose of building a strong organization to support the long-term goals of the company. Government support has been received in the USA and Australia of SEK 4.2 million, which has been reported as reduced personnel costs, primarily in the sales and R&D functions. Selling expenses in relation to sales during the period was 33 percent (28). R&D expenses amounted to 31 percent (28) of sales. Administrative expenses amounted to 17 percent (11) of sales. Adjusted for integration and acquisition costs, administrative expenses amounted to 15 percent of sales.

Net of other operating revenues and expenses during the period was SEK -32.2 (-10.7) million. The increase is mainly explained by costs associated with organizational change of SEK 9.9 million, cost reservation for the share-based bonus programs for employees outside Sweden of SEK 18.3 million and negative currency translation effects. See note 4 for more information.

During the period, SEK 60.5 (69.8) million of the development costs were capitalized as intangible assets. SEK 49.5 (52.7) million was attributable to investments in the heart preservation project, SEK 3.9 (-) was attributable to investments in abdominal projects, SEK 3.0 (4.2) million was attributable to PrimECC® and SEK 4.1 (2.9) million was attributable to product development in the rest of the product portfolio. Amortization of capitalized development costs for the period amounted to SEK 16.7 (13.7) million, of which SEK 15.5 (13.4) million was amortization of capitalized development cost for regulatory approvals for the products in lung transplantation.

Cash flow

Cash flow from operating activities during the period amounted to SEK -12.3 (29.5) million, primarily as a result of payments of acquired operating liabilities in Organ Assist and acquisition- and integration costs relating to the acquisition. Cash flow from investment activities amounted to SEK -266.5 (-83.8) million, of which SEK -201.3 million relates to the acquisition of Organ Assist. SEK 62.0 (73.2) million was invested in intangible assets and SEK 2.6 (10.5) million was invested in tangible assets. Cash flow from financing activities amounted to SEK 482.8 (25.6) million net. The increase is primarily explained by funds raised through the directed share issue of SEK 500 million, less issuance cost of SEK 13.0 million and amortization of lease liabilities of SEK 5.7 million. Exchange rate differences in cash and cash equivalents had a negative effect on cash flow for the period of SEK -9.7 million (1.7). Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period amounted to SEK 354.2 (160.0) million.

Financing

XVIVO Perfusion's equity / assets ratio is strong and amounted to 88 percent (91) at the end of the period. The company's total credit facilities consist of an overdraft facility and it amounted to SEK 30 (30) million at the end of the period, of which SEK 0.0 million (0.0) was utilized.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE PERIOD

XVIVO completes the acquisition of the Dutch medical technology company Organ Assist B.V

On September 23, XVIVO entered into an agreement to acquire 100 percent of the shares in the Dutch medical technology company Organ Assist B.V. Organ Assist focuses mainly on developing machines and consumables for perfusion of liver and kidney. Through the acquisition, XVIVO became the first company in the world who actively conducts business within preservation and evaluation of organs in all major organ areas. The acquisition accelerates the company's strategy to become a global supplier of solutions and systems in all major organ areas. The purchase price amounted to a maximum of EUR 24 million, with an initial payment of EUR 20 million and a conditioned, additional purchase price of maximum EUR 4 million. The additional payments are divided between two different payments of SEK 2 million each, where one is dependent on sales targets for 2021 and the other on regulatory FDA approval for the kidney transport device.

Directed share issue in connection with the acquisition raised SEK 500 million

The acquisition of Organ Assist was financed through a directed share issue which took place in the same day as the acquisition. Investors included both existing and new shareholders, including Bure Equity AB, Swedbank Robur, Eccenovo AB (publ.), Fjärde AP-Fonden, Lannebo Fonder and Handelsbanken Fonder. The issue took place without discount at a subscription price of SEK 236 and the company raised approximately SEK 500 million. Issuance costs amounted to SEK 13.0 million. The number of shares and votes in XVIVO Perfusion AB (publ) was increased by 2,118,640 shares and amounts to 28,719,136.

Organizational changes

Dag Andersson was appointed as the new President and CEO in April and took office in June. XVIVO Perfusion's founder and former CEO, Magnus Nilsson, remains as Senior Advisor to primarily work with R&D. Dag has a background in healthcare as CEO of Diaverum AB from 2008 up until 2018 and before that worked for 15 years in leading positions at the medical technology company Mölnlycke Health Care.

A reorganization, which affected the company's management team and all departments, has taken place with the aim of creating a more efficient and focused organization. The management team has been strengthened with a new Commercial Director, Johan Holmström, and a new R&D Director, Charlotte Walldal. Furthermore, the company's current CFO, Christoffer Rosenblad on December 1st, was appointed to a newly established position within XVIVO as Chief Operating Officer, COO. Kristoffer Nordström, XVIVO's previous Finance Manager, was appointed as new CFO.

Anne-Li Sigvardsson, MSc has been appointed Chief Intellectual Property Officer (CIPO). Anne-Li is responsible for the company's IP portfolio and has developed XVIVO Perfusions patent portfolio for PrimECC and Perfadex Plus, among other products. Andreas Wallinder, MD, PhD has been appointed Chief Medical Officer (CMO). Andreas is the indication leader for the company's heart preservation development and clinically responsible within the company.

First patient in the extended PrimECC® study included

PrimECC®, a CE-marked and patent-protected product, is developed to reduce complications after heart surgery. PrimECC® is a solution used to prime the heart-lung machine before open heart-surgery. Hundreds of thousands of heart surgeries are performed today each year worldwide using a heart-lung machine. The extended study that has now begun intends to expand and strengthen the clinical documentation for PrimECC® and will include a total of 366 patients.

Heart preservation study from Lund published in Nature Communications

During the period, the scientific journal Nature Communications published an article written by Professor Johan Nilsson, describing the use of XVIVO Perfusion's heart preservation technology developed by Professor Stig Steen. The results from the study show that our method is safe and functional for clinical use.

Perfadex® Plus with Click Port launched globally during the first quarter

As XVIVO Perfusion has previously reported, the company has developed a new, 'ready to use' version for cold preservation of lungs, called Perfadex® Plus. The advantage of Perfadex® Plus is that it is ready to use and the clinic does not need to add buffer and calcium ions before use. The product is now available in all major markets globally. Patent applications for Perfadex® Plus have been filed in all major markets and in 2019 the European Patent Office approved the patent for Perfadex® Plus in Europe.

XPS™ sold to leading European lung transplant clinic and pediatric clinic

The AKH University Hospital in Vienna, Austria, which is one of the three largest lung transplant clinics in Europe, has purchased an XPS™. Furthermore, a paediatric transplant clinic in Rome, Italy has purchased an XPS™. This is the first XPS™ delivered to a children's hospital.

Warrants program 2020/2022 finalized

The application period for warrants program for employees series 2020/2022 expired on September 23, 2020 and a total of 374,000 warrants were subscribed for.

OUTLOOK FOR 2021

In 2020, XVIVO has been affected by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic through the reduction in transplants. Available healthcare resources have largely focused on Covid-19 patients and thus the number of donated organs has decreased and waiting lists have increased. During March to May, the decline was substantial. The important markets, the USA and Europe, gradually recovered

during the third quarter. The extent of the impact on sales during 2021 will depend on the extent to which the Covid-19 pandemic affects intensive care in these markets. Transplantation is a life-sustaining treatment and transplants are prioritized by health authorities around the world. For this reason, the company estimates that the number of transplants, and thus the demand for XVIVO's products, will continue to increase long-term.

The company will intensify its efforts to receive regulatory approval of the Kidney Assist Transport device in the USA, which is the company's product for improved kidney transport. In 2020, very good study results were published in the Lancet which shows the benefits of XVIVOs technology, and the company aims to apply for 510K approval to the FDA in 2021. Costs for regulatory approval in the US will be capitalized on an on-going basis.

The company will continue to focus heavily on clinical studies and product development in all major organ areas. In heart transplantation, the goal is to make great progress in the clinical multi center studies in Europe, the USA and Australia. In kidney transplantation, the goal is to obtain regulatory approval in the USA for the kidney transport device during the second half of 2021. The PrimECC® study in Sweden should be able to pick up speed as the pressure on intensive care decreases.

THE COMPANY IN BRIEF

Background

Organ transplantation is the last resort for patients with endstage organ failure. There is an acute global shortage of donated organs which results in deaths among patients on the waitlist. At the same time many donated organs are deemed unsuitable for transplantation and go unutilized.

Operations

XVIVO Perfusion AB is a medical technology that addresses the global shortage of donated organs by developing, manufacturing and commercializing products for optimal storage during transportation, assessment and treatment of organs outside of the body, ensuring the safe use of more organs and ultimately giving more patients the chance of a life-saving transplant. Since 2020, the company is active in all major solid organ areas. In lung transplantation, the company's product Perfadex® Plus has a market share of approximately 90 percent in the traditional preservation of lungs.

Thoracic

A great problem in transplantation healthcare is the lack of available lungs. Currently, in the company's largest market, the USA, only around 20 percent of the available donated lungs are transplanted, as it is considered far too risky to transplant the remaining majority. By using XVIVO's product STEEN Solution™, the organ is cleared of harmful substances from the donor, thus creating a better environment for the organ's cells. The technology thereby allows the organ to "recover" when possible. It also allows for functional testing to be performed on the organ outside of the body. In clinical use in the USA,

Europe, Australia, and Canada, it has become apparent that once STEEN Solution™ perfusion has been carried out, many of the organs that were initially "rejected" are assessed as being usable and have been successfully transplanted into patients with end-stage lung disease. Therefore, the use of STEEN Solution™ has the potential to increase the total number of lung transplants. The company's products for warm perfusion, XPS™ and STEEN Solution™, have regulatory approval in all major markets in the world, and were the first products to receive regulatory approval from the FDA for warm perfusion of marginal lungs.

Based on the world leading research of Professor Stig Steen and Igelösa, XVIVO Perfusion's heart transplantation competence center in Lund (Sweden) has developed a machine and solutions for heart preservation. The products are developed to increase the availability of donated hearts so that more heart transplants can be performed, and more patients can be given a last chance of a longer life. Clinical multicenter trials are underway in Europe and in the USA and Australia trials in planning phase. The trials form the basis for applications for regulatory approvals for the products in all major markets.

Abdominal

The shortage of transplantable kidneys is great. Studies have shown that transport of kidneys with ongoing perfusion in many cases improves post-transplant results. A high-quality international study has been published in The Lancet that shows significant benefits for the recipient when the kidney is transported in an oxygenated solution. This is the technology that is unique to XVIVO. XVIVO's technology, research and development in kidney perfusion is being used in both preclinical and clinical, investigator-driven studies.

Similarly to other organs, there is a shortage of transplantable livers. By preserving and evaluating the function of the donated liver in an optimized way, potentially more well-functioning organs could be transplanted. XVIVO's technology, research, and development in warm perfusion of the liver is being used in both preclinical and clinical, investigator-driven studies.

The combination of new perfusion technology and XVIVO's solutions will be in focus for research and development in kidney and liver transplantation.

Other indications

The company also invests in preclinical and clinical research in xenotransplantation, perfusion of organs remaining in the body, for example, drug administration to isolated organs and priming solutions for heart-lung machines. An extended trial for the company's priming solution PrimECC® is taking place in Sweden.

Business concept

XVIVO Perfusion's business concept is to increase the survival rate of patients in need of an organ transplant by providing effective products that increase the availability and survival potential of organs once transplanted.

Vision

The company's vision is that no one should have to die waiting for a new organ.

Objective

The company's objective is to establish machine perfusion of organs with STEEN Solution™ and other advanced solutions as the standard treatment in organ transplantation so that more of these lifesaving treatments can be performed.

Strategy

XVIVO Perfusion's strategy is focused on increasing the number of organs available for transplantation. Through development of products for perfusion of organs and through clinical trials on all major markets in the world, XVIVO Perfusion shows that perfusion of organs gives more organs available for transplantation and thus gives a larger number of patients a life-saving treatment.

Note 5. Share warrant programs for employees

In total there are 725,000 outstanding warrants in two programs.

The Annual General Meeting of 2019 resolved to issue a maximum of 351,000 warrants (series 2019/2021), with the right to subscribe a maximum of 351,000 new shares to employees of the XVIVO Perfusion Group. Of these warrants, all 351,000 have been subscribed by employees. Warrant program series 2019/2021 gives the warrant holder the right to subscribe for a new share in May 2021 at a price of SEK 278.91.

The Annual General Meeting of 2020 resolved to issue a maximum of 408,000 warrants (2020/2022 series) with the right to subscribe a maximum of 408,000 new shares to employees of the XVIVO Perfusion Group. Of these warrants, 374,000 have been subscribed for by employees. Warrant program 2020/2022 gives the warrant holder the right to subscribe for a new share in May 2022 at a price of SEK 205.88.

During the period January-December 2020, both the average share price for the period and the closing price at period end exceeded the exercise price of both warrant program series 2019/2021 and warrant program series 2020/2022, whereby the warrant programs at strike are expected to result in a total dilution effect for existing shares of approximately 2.5 percent.

The Annual General Meeting in 2019 and 2020 decided to approve a cash-based incentive program for the Group's employees in countries outside Sweden, as these employees are not entitled to participate in the Swedish warrant programs. The cash-based programs should, as far as practically possible, be designed to correspond to the Swedish warrant programs but have a limit for maximum outcome. The cost of these cash-based incentive programs is recognized in the periods when XVIVO's share price exceeds the exercise price for each Swedish warrant program. The cost is reported under the item "Other operating income and expenses" and is described in Note 4.

Not 6. Acquisition of business

On October 1, XVIVO acquired 100 percent of the shares in the Dutch medical technology company Organ Assist B.V. The acquisition takes place at a cash purchase price of up to EUR 24 million, with an initial payment of EUR 20 million and potential additional purchase prices of a total of up to EUR 4 million. The additional purchase price is divided into two milestone payments, of a maximum of EUR 2 million each, based on sales targets for 2021 and regulatory approval in the USA for Organ Assist's kidney device. Costs attributable to the acquisition amounted to SEK 2.7 million and were charged to Administrative expenses in the consolidated income statement during the year.

Organ Assist focuses mainly on developing machines and consumables for perfusion of the liver and kidneys. Through the acquisition, XVIVO will be the first company for the preservation and evaluation of organs in the world to actively conduct activities that include all major organs, which accelerates the company's strategy to become a global supplier of solutions and systems for all major organs. The companies' synergies enable greater market opportunities for XVIVO's and Organ Assist's product portfolios by integrating XVIVO's unique and patented STEEN Solution™ technology with Organ Assist's kidney and liver devices, as well as by utilizing XVIVO's international market presence. The combined offering expands XVIVO's addressable market to approximately 98 percent of the organ transplant market with the goal of positioning the company as the first choice for all multi-organ clinics.

The acquisition date is October 1 and income and cash flow are not included in the consolidated financial statements until this date. During the time after the acquisition, Organ Assist contributed with SEK 16.6 million to the net sales of the group and SEK 1.1 million to the net result. If the acquisition had taken place on January 1st 2020, the entity would have contributed with net sales of SEK 41.8 million and a net result of -3.1 million.

The acquisition analysis was preliminary in Q3 but has now been finalized. The table below shows the final acquisition analysis.

Goodwill primarily consists of synergy effects that do not meet the requirements for accounting as intangible assets at the time of the acquisition. Primary synergies are potentially increased sales values per client as well as increased sales potential for new clients, which can be achieved through XVIVOS knowledge and experience within global marketing and regulatory issues. Synergies which could contribute to future net sales is also to be found within research and development.

To calculate the gross profit margin, gross profit is first calculated by subtracting the cost of goods for resale from net sales. Gross profit is then divided by net sales to obtain the performance measure of "gross profit margin." Gross profit margin states the percentage of net sales that are converted into profit after cost of goods sold, and is impacted by such factors as pricing, the cost of raw materials and manufacturing, inventory impairment and trends in exchange rates.

Equity/assets ratio % 88 91

Equity consists of share capital, other contributed capital, reserves and retained earnings, including the Group's profit for the year and non-controlling interests. Equity/assets ratio is calculated by dividing equity by total assets and is thus a measure of the percentage of assets that are financed by equity.

CURRENT R&D PORTFOLIO

PROJECT DESCRIPTION STATUS

DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS

Heart transplantation

What primarily limits how many people can receive a heart transplant today is the number of available, and using today's technology, usable donated organs, in combination with the time that a donated heart can be outside the body. XVIVO is working in collaboration with Professor Stig Steen to develop a holistic solution consisting of fluids and machinery that better preserve the function of the donated heart during transport and thus can contribute to improved results after heart transplantation.

The company is developing a program with clinical multicenter studies. These studies will form the basis for the application for regulatory approval of the products in all the major markets in the world. In Europe, the first patients have been included in the study that, in total, will include 202 patients in nine centers in seven countries. Patients are selected by lottery to be transplanted either with donated hearts transported by XVIVO's method or preserved using the traditional icebox method. A similar multicenter study is in the planning phase in the US as well, where the company has received a so-called "breakthrough device designation" and the conditions for starting the study are under discussion with the FDA. In addition to the studies that XVIVO conducts, the Swedish investigator-driven study that uses XVIVO's technology continues to include patients. A supplementary investigator-driven study is also being launched in Australia.

PrimECC

PrimECC® is a fluid that has been developed in collaboration with Professor Stig Steen in Lund and is intended for use in a heart-lung machine. This machine completely assumes control of the function of the heart and lungs during the several hundred thousand heart operations that are performed annually. Before the heart-lung machine is connected to a patient, the machine must be filled with fluid, which today usually is a simple saline solution. The hope is that the use of PrimECC® for this purpose will reduce side effects related to the use of the heart-lung machine by protecting the body's organs.

Kidney transplantation

Similarily to other organs, there is a lack of transplantable kidneys. Studies have shown that transport of kidneys with ongoing perfusion in many cases improves post-transplant results. Evaluation of the kidney's function with warm perfusion is under development. The optimal method for transporting donated kidneys is being studied in several ongoing, international studies.

Liver transplantation

Similarly to other organs, there is a lack of transplantable livers. By preserving and evaluating the function of the donated liver in an optimized way, potentially more wellfunctioning organs could be transplanted. Studies indicate that perfusion of the liver before transplantation reduces the risk of complications.

XVIVO Perfusion has patents for PrimECC® in the important markets of the US, the EU, China, and Japan, and the product has already been granted a CE mark. In 2016 and 2017, a randomized clinical study of 80 patients was conducted which indicated positive effects of PrimECC®. During the fourth quarter, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, continued to include patients in the new, extended study in Sweden. Inclusion rates have been affected by the fact that the number of heart surgeries has decreased as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. The company is waiting with the product launch until the study results have been analyzed.

In the fourth quarter, The Lancet published a high-quality international study. The study shows significant benefits for the recipient when the kidney is transported in an oxygenated solution. This is the technology that is unique to XVIVO. In connection with XVIVO's acquisition of Organ Assist, technology, research and development in kidney perfusion were added in both preclinical and clinical, investigator-driven studies. The combination of new perfusion technology and XVIVO's solutions will be in focus for future research in the kidney transplantation.

The company's acquisition of Organ Assist brought technology, research, and development in warm perfusion of the liver in both preclinical and clinical, investigatordriven studies. Several of these clinical trials are in the final stages. The combination of new perfusion technology and XVIVO's solutions will be in focus for future research in liver transplantation.

RESEARCH PROJECTS

Xenotransplantation Xenotransplantation is based on the use of non-human organs in transplantation. The method is currently in the research stage for several organs.

XVIVO's technology for preserving heart function is currently, continuously, used by two world-leading research groups and has been crucial for successful results when genetically modified hearts from pigs are transplanted into primates.
