New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 58% This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-kr9.0m free cash flow). Earnings have declined by 16% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (58% increase in shares outstanding).

New major risk - Revenue size The company makes less than US$1m in revenue. Total revenue: kr11m (US$994k) This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small amount of revenue are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-kr17m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (16% average weekly change). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 13% per year for the foreseeable future. Revenue is less than US$1m (kr11m revenue, or US$994k). Market cap is less than US$10m (kr45.0m market cap, or US$4.10m).

Attana Obtains CE-IVD Marking for Its First Products Within Clinical Diagnostics Attana has registered the AVA™ SARS-CoV-2 IgG Immunoassay and the analytical instrument Attana Cell™ 250 for CE-IVD Marking with the Swedish Medical Products Agency ("Läkemedelsverket"). The test and the instrument meet all applicable requirements for CE-IVD Marking, which allows Attana to start marketing and selling the products to clinical laboratories within the EU. The technical studies behind the CE-IVD Marking have been performed in Kalmar, Sweden in collaboration with the Linnaeus University and Region Kalmar. The studies include blood samples from 110 individuals, of which 52 had SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies, confirmed by independent ELISA tests. All serum samples were analyzed with Attana's CE-IVD Marked kits and compared with results from two ELISA-based tests. In addition, Attana has performed studies ensuring linearity, precision, reproducibility and other performance measurements in accordance with the relevant CE-IVD requirements. These studies have all shown very good results and will be presented in one or more scientific publications that are being prepared together with the Linnaeus University and Region Kalmar. Comparing Attana's method with ELISA: The major difference in Attana's method is that Attana immunoassays are performed in real time wheras other certified SARS-CoV-2 immunoassays are based on blood samples being incubated for several minutes prior to measurement. Attana's real-time analysis thus better mimics the conditions within the human body (in vivo) and accordingly likely provides more biologically relevant diagnostic data. Despite this methodological difference, Attana's SARS-CoV-2 IgG immunoassay shows similar sensitivity and specificity compared to the two ELISA methods as they do when compared to each other. Continued regulatory process: In addition to serum, Attana's test also allows for analysis of both whole blood (capillary fingerprick) and plasma, for research use. Attana will continuously update the CE-IVD Marking to also include these blood sample types. The ambition is to also seek regulatory approval for a quality assessment of SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies based on Attana's instruments and test kits. Reported Earnings • May 10

Attana Collaborates with Linnaeus University Toaccelerate the Development of Unique Antibody Tests for COVID-19 Attana announced that the company has strengthened its collaboration with the Linnaeus University to accelerate the development of unique antibody tests for COVID-19. Furthermore, the company moves forward with the regulatory efforts for AVA™ and implements a number of organizational changes aimed to establish an expert team leading the diagnostics initiative independent of Attana's ongoing operations. Strengthened collaboration with the Linnaeus University: The Linnaeus University in Kalmar installed its first Attana instrument as early as 2003, and in 2019 the university was granted funding from the Swedish Knowledge Foundation to in collaboration, with amongst others Attana perform research with ultra-sensitive sensors. Attana can announced that the company, within the framework of the above-mentioned project, will deepen its collaboration with the university. Attana will dedicate an applications specialist with a background in immunology to optimizing Attana's diagnostic platform's existing test for analysis of antibodies and immunity to SARS-CoV-2. This antibody test is expected to not only provide with binary yes or no answer to whether an individual has developed antibodies or not, but also the concentration and quality of these antibodies - something that Attana and the Linnaeus University could be the first ever to offer. The purpose of such a nuanced test is to eventually be able to draw conclusions about individuals' level of immunity. The research going forward is expected to determine exactly which components the AVA™ test kit should include and which test protocol the diagnostic platform should proceed with in order to obtain regulatory approval.

Attanas Record Publishes in IBI Shows Extraordinary Results Attanas track record was published in IBI (International Biophaaceutical Industry). The study evaluates the outcome of all the 77 drug candidates Attana has analyzed for customers in the pre-clinical phase. The result of the study shows Attana has had an accuracy of 100% in determining which candidates will succeed in clinical trials, outperforming the company's previously communicated expectations. The findings suggest that Attanas proprietary technology and validation process has improved clinical trial success rates by over 80%. If the accuracy of the results is scalable throughout the industry, it is facing a major increase in productivity and profitability, with Attana leading the way. Brief summary of the study: The challenge in developing new pharmaceutical drugs The average R&D cost for a pharmaceutical drug is approximately $2 billion, out of which roughly half is related to clinical trials. Only 1 out of 10 candidates that enter clinical trials successfully reach the commercial market, primarily as a result of poor testing and analysis in the pre-clinical phase. A solution for improving the R&D process With Attanas proprietary QCM technology and instruments, the company has the ability to analyze how a given pharmaceutical drug will interact with the human body by mirroring in vivo conditions. By evaluating efficacy and identifying potential side effects with great accuracy, Attana can classify the drug candidates as either promising or unqualified before entering clinical trials. A proven track record of success To date, Attana has analyzed 77 candidates of which 30 have been validated and determined to be promising, some after modifications based on Attanas recommendations. In a short period of time, 8 of the validated candidates have entered clinical trials and 6 out of 6 have successfully completed phase I. InDex Pharmaceuticals candidate, Cobitolimod, has already reached phase III after being validated by Attana in 2016. Of the 47 candidates classified by Attana as unqualified, none has entered clinical trials to the
companys knowledge. The track record shows Attanas accuracy of 100% in classifying candidates prior to clinical trials. Assuming the outcome
of Attanas validated candidates follows industry average transition rates for future phases, Attana has improved the overall clinical trial success rate by more than 80%. Annuncio • Dec 05

Attana Submits A New Patent Application Attana has filed a new patent application with claims resulting in improved piezoelectric properties of piezoelectric resonators. The innovations are applicable to any piezoelectric resonator and show good prospects for commercialization both within Attana instruments and a broad range of other technological applications. Attana has filed a new patent application with several claims which result in improved piezoelectric properties of piezoelectric resonators. The proposed inventions increase the resonant frequency of a piezoelectric resonator by up to 50% while simultaneously improving the frequency stability by up to 10%. A piezoelectric resonator is an electromechanical component which generates or filters high frequencies. Piezoelectric resonators are found in a variety of devices ranging from consumer electronics, such as computers and mobile phones, to industrial test- and measurement equipment. The quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) technology employed by Attana, uses a piezoelectric resonator as a mass-sensitive sensor to characterize molecular interactions down to sub-nanogram levels, in biologically relevant environments. The general performance of a piezoelectric resonator is dependent on two key parameters: (1) the resonant frequency, f\o\, and (2) the frequency stability, Q factor. Conventionally, increasing the resonant frequency of a piezoelectric resonator is achieved by reducing the thickness of the piezoelectric material. However, a reduction in thickness results in reduced mechanical stability of the resonator, and subsequently, a reduction in Q factor. In other words, there is a trade-off between improved frequency and reduced stability. The novel piezoelectric material proposed by Attana is configured to have an improved shear wave velocity, simultaneously improving both the resonant frequency and the quality factor of the resonator. The invention is useful for improving the performance of piezoelectric resonators relating to QCM, as well as any other application which implements a piezoelectric resonator. Possible applications can include computer clock generators and other resonating systems, where a higher resonant frequency yields a higher clock rate and improved Q factor results in improved frequency stability. Likewise, the proposed resonator can be implemented in oscillator circuits of communication devices for improved signal selection over a narrower bandwidth resulting in improved information transfer. The Attana patent application covers: (1) a piezoelectric resonator, (2) a piezoelectric material for a piezoelectric resonator, and (3) a method for manufacturing a piezoelectric resonator. The claims have promising commercialization potential since the benefits can be achieved without significant increases in production costs.
