New major risk - Financial position The company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Currently running at an operating cash loss. This is considered a major risk. If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (currently running at an operating cash loss).

These are practices that inflate earnings, while not providing a similar increase to cash flows. Companies in some select industries naturally have a high level of non-cash earnings and it is not a major concern.

Talkpool AG Appoints Magnus Sparrholm as Chief Executive Officer The Board of Directors of Talkpool AG has appointed its Chairman Magnus Sparrholm as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) ad interim of the Talkpool Group until further notice. Erik Strömstedt, who has led the company for many years, will work closely with Mr. Sparrholm to finalize the ongoing turnaround with a focus on telecommunications network services in existing markets. Rather than embarking on a challenging high-risk, high-reward investment banking route with substantial investments and acquisitions, the new management plans to streamline the business into a more traditional engineering services company. In addition to continuing its core business of planning, optimising, and maintaining telecoms networks, Talkpool intends to increase the use of technology in its service offerings. Instead of developing its own solutions, Talkpool will resell and integrate technology from other companies. This will allow Talkpool to meet customer demand for automation offerings without having to make large investments. In the short term, Talkpool's management will focus on accelerating the sale of Talkpool's 89% stake in the largest telecom network services company in Pakistan. The aim is to complete the sale of the Pakistani shareholding before the end of the year with a valuation of USD 4 million. Following the sale of the Pakistan business, Talkpool has secured its own growth funding for the foreseeable future. Finally, Talkpool will work to significantly increase the value of the TALK share from the current price of around SEK 4 per share. With a total of 6,778,097 shares, Talkpool is currently valued to approximately SEK 27 million, or EUR 2.3 million. Talkpool's management has an ambition to introduce a dividend and share buy-back scheme as soon as the liquidity allows for doing so, tentatively latest by the end of year 2024. 공시 • Sep 20

Talkpool's New Lorawan Refrigerant Leak Detector Receives Approval for BREEAM In-Use Talkpool AG has developed a new sensor that measures the R-32 refrigerant, in close cooperation with Revelop, one of Sweden's most innovative real estate companies. The Talkpool sensor can be used to detect leakages in refrigeration- and cooling systems that use R-32 or any other hydrocarbon-based refrigerant. Revelop and Talkpool have installed an early version of the sensor and integrated it with a building management system as part of Revelop's BREEAM In-Use certification program of their property portfolio. The results are very positive, and the sensor has been approved for BREEAM In-Use. This means that in addition to the obvious health and safety benefits, the OY1220 LoRaWAN refrigerant leak detector also supports a higher score related to BREEAM and similar property certification programs. The OY1220 LoRaWAN Refrigerant leak detector can now be pre-ordered. The device will be available in large volumes starting November. Reported Earnings • Aug 26

TalkPool AG Internationally Launches Revolutionary Radon Gas Sensor Based on LoRaWAN TalkPool AG internationally launches revolutionary Radon Gas Sensor based on LoRaWAN. The device measures radon gas levels extremely fast and reports the data directly, online. This enables Smart Building Solutions, supports Green Building Certifications and allows for unique control of ventilation systems based on real-time Radon data. The product is now available for EMEA wide distribution. Radon gas is a severe problem in many areas of the world, being the second most frequent cause of lung cancer. It is released from rock and soil as well as materials derived thereof, such as building materials. Outdoors, it quickly disperses, but indoors, it can get trapped and reach dangerously high levels. Good ventilation is crucial to prevent this. In many countries, regulations stipulate that radon levels need to be measured in certain locations, either periodically or continuously. Talkpool's new device, the OY1500 LoRaWAN Radon gas sensor, uses high voltage sensing technology and is due to this one of the most sensitive radon units on the market. High sensitivity means that rapid variations in the radon content are registered more correctly. In combination with the LoRaWAN network connectivity, this has resulted in a revolutionary device on the market for radon measurements that sends actionable data to the internet in real-time, allowing for control of ventilation systems. For competing, less sensitive, radon sensors, this isn't possible since they present the floating 24-hour average value. As a result of this, ventilation systems can be activated when radon levels increase, thereby ensuring a safe environment for the building users. On the other hand, when the building is not in use, like for example a school building at night, ventilation systems can be turned off to save energy, to be activated again in time before the day starts. This can thereby tackle key safety-, sustainability- and financial targets of real estate owners and facility managers. Next to the device's ability to take very rapid measurements, it also is designed for long-term installation into a building. The measurement data is reported over the internet. The device is tamper-proof, with a sensor in it that detects movement and sends an alarm in real-time. These measurements support green building certifications and help to create a safe, healthy indoor environment. The device has been co-developed by Talkpool, experts in radio technology and IoT solutions for the real estate industry, and by the world leading radon sensor technology company. As it transmits data wirelessly, it is extremely easy to install. To get high quality measurement data of radon gas requires calculations that require more power than is possible for the device's battery capacity, therefore, the calculations are done online instead. The advanced calibration and verification of the measured data results in measurements that are verified to the NIST standard and can therefore be used for official reporting duties in line with regulations.
