New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: €87.5m (US$99.8m) This is considered a minor risk. Companies with a small market capitalization 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: Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (8.5% average weekly change). Market cap is less than US$100m (€87.5m market cap, or US$99.8m). Aankondiging • May 02
Arcticzymes Technologies Asa Strengthens Ip Platform with New Patent Grant Supporting Expansion into Rna Therapeutics Manufacturing ArcticZymes Technologies ASA announced the grant of a new patent supporting proprietary RNA restriction enzyme technologies for use within the therapeutic RNA manufacturing workflow, supporting the Company's strategic expansion into the rapidly growing RNA therapeutics manufacturing market. The newly granted patent strengthens ArcticZymes' proprietary technology platform with the introduction of a novel RNA restriction enzyme family focused on enabling analytical, process development and manufacturing workflows for therapeutic RNA production. The protection covers key application areas relevant to RNA processing, quality control and scalable manufacturing workflows.

ArcticZymes Technologies Launches SAN HQ 2.0 ELISA kit ArcticZymes Technologies announced the launch of the SAN HQ 2.0 ELISA kit. The SAN HQ 2.0 ELISA kit is intended as a natural companion product to already successful Salt Active Nuclease - SAN HQ 2.0. The new ELISA product is a classic sandwich immunoassay designed to detect and quantify the presence of the SAN HQ 2.0 nuclease at trace amounts. Customers working with bioprocessing workflows will be able to use SAN HQ 2.0 to remove contaminating nucleic acids, and then verify the removal of the nuclease using the SAN HQ 2.0 ELISA kit after downstream processing and purification. This is important as all processing agents, used during biomanufacturing processes leading to human therapeutic agents, are subject to tight controls with respect to residual amounts present in the final formulation. Quantification is critical, therefore the enzyme SAN HQ 2.0 and the new SAN HQ 2.0 ELISA kit are complementary products. The new ELISA kit will further accelerate the adoption of SAN HQ 2.0 in customers' bioprocessing workflows. The global biomanufacturing market has seen significant growth in recent years, in part due to a boom in cell and gene therapy development, and the high demand for vaccine manufacturing during the Coronavirus pandemic. Providing customers with more complete solutions, such as processing enzymes and corresponding immunoassay kits, will be an important driver to continued sales growth in the biomanufacturing business.

ArcticZymes Technologies ASA Launches SAN HQ 2.0 ArcticZymes Technologies ASA announced the launch of the second generation of its SAN HQ enzyme. ArcticZymes Technologies´ Salt Active Nuclease High Quality (SAN HQ) enzyme has achieved significant penetration in the viral vector manufacturing space in the last 5 years. Viral vectors are used in therapeutic applications such as vaccines and gene therapies. SAN HQ treatment is used in the downstream purification of viral vectors to remove contaminating DNA. The second generation of the enzyme, SAN HQ 2.0, has been optimised for wider compatibility with downstream processes used in biomanufacturing. In particular, SAN HQ 2.0 offers improved resolution in several chromatographic techniques, thereby simplifying the separation of the nuclease from the target product post treatment. ArcticZymes anticipates that SAN HQ 2.0 will increase the Company's reach within the viral vector space and provide new opportunities in recombinant protein production. The product will be commercially available from late third quarter 2021. Recent Insider Transactions • May 20
