New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: kr944.5m (US$98.6m) 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: Major Risk Shares are highly illiquid. Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Market cap is less than US$100m (kr944.5m market cap, or US$98.6m). Tillkännagivande • May 22

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 2.7% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Shares are highly illiquid. Earnings have declined by 2.7% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risk Large one-off items impacting financial results. Reported Earnings • May 06

Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has fallen by 24% per year but the company’s share price has only fallen by 17% per year, which means it has not declined as severely as earnings. New Risk • Apr 27
New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 32% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Tillkännagivande • Apr 21

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 Unstable dividend paying track record with dividend experiencing an annual drop of over 20% in the past.

Sentispec Jointly Develops the World's First Fully Automatic Fever Screener with Prevas, Called the ViraHawk Sentispec has jointly developed the world's first fully automatic fever screener with Prevas, called the ViraHawk. It can measure the temperature of passers-by and identify potential infection spreaders. It was the start of a collaboration with Prevas that developed a prototype that Sentispec would then quickly be able to start producing. The first prototype was ready in June 2020 and ViraHawk was put into production, ready for sale as early as September. ViraHawk works in the same way as video surveillance. It's built into a box containing a heat scanner and a camera with face recognition software. When a group of people go past, it rapidly reads their individual temperatures from a distance of three meters using a thermal sensor and takes a photo of anyone whose temperature is too high. The image is immediately sent to an employee who can identify the person and check whether they have other symptoms, enabling a process that can identify a potential infection risk. This protects employees, citizens and companies from the risks associated with high-risk diseases such as covid-19. It only takes five minutes to set up a ViraHawk and it is also GDPR-compliant as it only saves images for a short period of time. Sentispec and Prevas are of course delighted and proud of being able to develop and produce such an essential product so quickly. Valuation Update With 7 Day Price Move • Nov 24
