New Risk • Nov 12
New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of German stocks, typically moving 11% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. 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 (-kr199m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (11% average weekly change). Revenue is less than US$1m (kr3.5m revenue, or US$322k). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (kr36m net loss in 3 years). Market cap is less than US$100m (€15.1m market cap, or US$16.1m).

Q-linea AB (publ) Announces the Initiation of a DOOR MAT Study at a Large US Academic Medical Center Q-linea AB (publ) announced the initiation of a DOOR MAT study, a first of its kind using the ASTar®? instrument. A Desirability of Outcome Ranking Approach for the Management of Antimicrobial Therapy (DOOR MAT) analysis balances patient outcomes and antimicrobial stewardship goals. The study will be conducted at a large academic center on the US east coast and will complement existing and ongoing analytical and health economics studies, adding to the growing body of evidence of the impacts of the ASTar system. Study authors anticipate that the use of rapid antibiotic susceptibility test results will lead to a hypothetical reduction in days of broad spectrum and inappropriate antibiotic therapy when retrospective chart analyses are completed. Announcement • Oct 21
Q-Linea AB (Publ) Announces US Reference Laboratory Completes ASTar®? Evaluation Q-linea AB (publ) announced that a US reference laboratory has completed their analytical evaluation of the ASTar instrument and Gram-negative blood culture panel. The company is now in discussions with the reference laboratory leadership regarding next steps for implementation of ASTar for routine clinical use. Additional evaluations are ongoing at several US academic medical centers. Interest in adoption and implementation of the ASTar system continues to grow due to the fully automated nature of the instrument, low hands-on time, high throughput, and ease of use. Announcement • Sep 26
Q-linea AB (publ) Presents Interim Evaluation Data on Webinar Q-linea AB (publ) announced webinar titled Clinical Evaluation of an FDA- Cleared High-Throughput Rapid Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing System hosted 360Dx. Q-linea partnered with 360Dx to host a webinar that is now available for playback on demand. The webinar featured Dr. Elizabeth Garrett of Penn State College of Medicine and Dr. Rebecca Yee of George Washington University discussing interim results from their respective evaluations of the ASTar system. These microbiology labs each receive between 15,000 and 30,000 blood cultures annually. In both laboratories, the ASTar produced minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) results approximately 36 hours faster than the standard of care instruments, providing opportunities for earlier interventions by clinicians to optimize antibiotic therapy. The presenters also highlighted the ease of use of the system and positive feedback from technicians using the instrument, as well as the value of consumables that can be stored at room temperature. The study design also includes partnering with the hospitals' antimicrobial stewardship teams to conduct retrospective chart reviews to determine what actions clinicians may have taken with access to the rapid antibiotic susceptibility test (AST) results. In an early dataset from George Washington University, chart reviews revealed that 44% of patients would have been exposed to fewer antibiotics had the study results been available clinically. Additionally, the rapid AST results would have enabled antibiotic de-escalation in 33% of patients, antibiotic escalation in 22% of patients, and potential reduction in length of stay in 22% of patients. Next steps for both hospital labs include completing enrollment of patient samples, finalizing retrospective chart reviews, and preparing a manuscript to publish their findings.

New minor risk - Profitability The company is currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over the next 3 years. Trailing 12-month net loss: kr229m Forecast net loss in 3 years: kr80m This is considered a minor risk. Companies that are not profitable are more likely to be burning through cash and less likely to be well established. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. Without profits, the company is under pressure to grow significantly while potentially having to reduce costs and possibly needing to take on debt or raise capital to remain afloat. 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 (-kr236m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (24% average weekly change). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (300% increase in shares outstanding).

New major risk - Financial position The company has less than a year of cash runway based on its current free cash flow trend. Free cash flow: -kr267m This is considered a major risk.

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 300% 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 (-kr269m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (20% average weekly change). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (300% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (kr5.3m revenue, or US$511k). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (kr29m net loss in 3 years).

Q-linea AB (publ) Completes its 510(k) Application for US Market Approval Q-linea AB (publ) announced that the company has completed its 510(k) application for US market approval. At the FDA's recommendation, Q-linea conducted additional analytical and clinical studies to support the company's 510(k) application for U.S. market authorization. Q-linea has had a continuous dialogue with the FDA, something that has likely been facilitated by ASTar's Breakthrough Device designation. As previously communicated, however, it is difficult to assess the timing of market approval in the US. The FDA may have additional questions and the processing time is hard to estimate. The FDA's recommendation to conduct additional testing was prompted by an algorithm update and was primarily aimed at verifying the performance improvements brought about by the algorithm update. The update was made as training data was expanded after the clinical study in the 510(k) application was completed. The training data is the basis for the machine learning algorithms that AStar's software uses to calculate results. Similar performance improvements for ASTar are already implemented for the European market. Reported Earnings • Jul 14
