Challenging year brought us closer to our customers, while demonstrating the
strength of our products.

After a tough start to the fall, we are pleased to note that fourth quarter
sales rose 28 percent compared with the third quarter. Sales also increased
slightly compared with Q4 2013. Sales fell mainly on the US market during the
third quarter, but even here, sales are recovering. The number of new customers
continues to grow as a result of the strategic shift from distribution through a
number of partners to direct sales, though more importantly, because our
products are reaching more customers. Genovis is now marketing its products
directly in Europe and through an American wholly owned subsidiary in the US. In
other parts of the world Genovis sells directly and via Sigma-Aldrich.

Over the course of the year our costs rose 11 percent. The costs are mainly
related to the restructuring of sales channels, intensified sales activities and
expenses related to the lawsuit against Promega. However, Genovis has an
insurance policy to ensure that we minimize our legal costs in this case.
Overall, with declining revenue especially during the third quarter, earnings
for the period on an annualized basis fell short of our objective, mainly
because of competition under circumstances that could not be predicted. New
situations can arise at any time and our philosophy is to be proactive by
increasing interaction and cooperation with our customers, intensifying our
marketing initiatives, and continuing to focus on our strategic product
pipeline. In this way, we will reverse the trend of this past autumn to achieve
growth in 2015.

Genovis’ product FabRICATOR® has initiated a paradigm shift for the methods that
the pharmaceutical industry uses to characterize and analyze biological
medicines. This new technology is now accepted and on the path to becoming more
broadly established. Our strategy is to ensure that we are first with the next
generation of products that support and develop this method of analysis. Our
customers have strong confidence in us as a result of FabRICATOR. We will take
advantage of synergies based on this confidence by growing with more products
which, like FabRICATOR, will give the customer results at a lower cost and with
high reliability. Consequently we are prioritizing products in Genovis’ pipeline
that can be used for several different proteins, and not just antibody-based
drugs. These easy-to-use products enable the customer to carry out several
different analyses in addition to those already made possible by FabRICATOR.
Because of new discoveries in the fourth quarter, we wanted to explore potential
IP issues before a launch, but in 2015 we will launch at least three new
products.

Genovis is also prioritizing products intended for automation and
miniaturization of characterization of biological medicines. The MAbCheck
project, in which Genovis is developing automated analysis solutions together
with researchers from Lund Institute of Technology, has reached the proof-of
-concept stage, which will now be verified by a number of major industrial
players. The results will be presented during the spring of 2015.

Our subsidiary GeccoDots concluded the VINNOVA-financed project aimed at
developing a new contrast agent for ultrasound with very good results during the
fourth quarter. The next step in the project is to complete the prototype and
conduct toxicity and proof-of- concept studies for diagnosis of lymph nodes in
an animal model.

All in all, 2014 posed certain challenges, but the year also brought positive
developments, especially regarding sales of the products launched in 2013. This
trend appears to be continuing. Our work with new products is promising for
product launches this year and for Genovis’ growth in new markets in the long
term.
