Sectra Launches Its Built-In Reporting Solution in the Us-Accelerates Diagnostics for Improved Patient Care Sectra is introducing its built-in reporting solution for medical imaging, Sectra Reporting, to the US market. By unifying image review and reporting together in the diagnostic workflow, radiologists can work in a single application and avoid switching between systems. This shortens turnaround times, reduces workload, and supports faster care delivery. Sectra Reporting is a native, built-in solution that streamlines diagnostic workflows by integrating directly with imaging data and measurements. To free up time for the radiologist to focus on diagnostics rather than on documentation, the solution has AI capabilities such as automated impression generation and external AI results seamlessly integrated. At the same time, deep links to measurements, annotations, and lesion-tracking data allow radiologists to embed precise, actionable references in the report. Another vital part within reporting is to provide the radiologist with instant access to relevant image content. This reduces manual steps, minimizes dictation errors, and clarifies clinical results. Sectra's reporting solution also lowers cognitive load through automatic linking of prior exams and improves safety by preventing incorrect references. While maintaining support for third-party reporting solutions, Sectra offers customers the choice of a streamlined experience designed to accelerate reporting and enhance clinical collaboration.

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of German stocks, typically moving 7.0% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates 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. It also 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. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Announcement • Jun 03

The Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust Deploys the Imaging IT Solution from Sectra The Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust has become the first of eight NHS trusts in the UK to deploy the imaging IT solution from international medical imaging IT and cybersecurity company Sectra. This follows the announcement of the enterprise imaging contract in October 2020. The go-live is transforming how clinical staff examine crucial patient images. Faster diagnoses for millions of people, new possibilities around AI, and region-wide collaboration are just some of the benefits that will follow. A new region-wide approach to analyzing x-rays, MRI scans, CT scans, mammography, and an entire range of crucial diagnostic images has started to become reality, now that The Pennine Acute has become the first of eight trusts across Greater Manchester to deploy medical imaging technology. Healthcare professionals at the trust have begun using a new enterprise imaging solution to benefit patients only weeks after the Greater Manchester Provider Federation Board signed a landmark contract with Sectra in October 2020. The agreement represents one of the largest imaging initiatives of its kind in the NHS and anywhere in Europe. This news at Pennine Acute is regarded as the first step in an initiative that will transform the way patients are diagnosed and treated. The imaging solution (PACS) is used by hospital staff to review patient images digitally. It replaces ageing IT and is already delivering immediate benefits to staff such as being able to view and report on detailed images remotely, including from their homes. In the case of surgical scenarios, 3D orthopedic tools will allow staff to virtually reconstruct joints prior to procedures. And the system is expected to transform how multidisciplinary teams function. The biggest wins from the initiative are expected as an accelerated delivery program expands the new PACS and an accompanying multimedia system known as a vendor neutral archive (VNA), both supplied by Sectra, across Greater Manchester. Once the solution is live and rolled out in more hospitals, clinical staff will be able to instantly access patient images captured at any of the participating NHS trusts in the region. This will support healthcare professionals making decisions at the point of care and help staff carrying out reports used to inform diagnoses. The program paves the way for better and faster access to scarce expertise and faster diagnoses for 3.2 million people across Greater Manchester at a time of national staff recruitment challenges in specialist disciplines like radiology. The Pennine Acute consists of hospitals in Oldham, Bury, Rochdale and North Manchester. The Oldham, Bury and Rochdale sites are managed along with Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust as the Northern Care Alliance. The North Manchester site is managed as part of the Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust Group. Announcement • Dec 12
