Comments from CEO Fredrik Olsson

It is extremely satisfying to note that we more than doubled our sales in the
third quarter compared with the same period last year. So far this year, sales
have increased by almost 60 percent and for the first time in years, we can
report a positive gross profit. Cash flow also improved substantially in the
third quarter compared with previous quarters this year and the same period last
year.

Operating earnings before depreciation (EBITDA) improved by almost SEK 3 million
compared with the corresponding period last year. Even compared with the first
and second quarters of this year, the improvement in earnings in the third
quarter is significant.

Operations in GeccoDots were discontinued in the third quarter and we have
divested parts of the company’s intellectual property rights to the inventors
against future royalties. By discontinuing operations at GeccoDots we will also
reduce costs moving forward, primarily relating to patent and personnel costs.
Although some restructuring costs were already taken in the second quarter, most
are charged to the current quarter. In connection with the restructuring, we
also decided to write down all intangible assets in GeccoDots, which has a
negative impact on earnings. In total, restructuring costs for the third quarter
amounted to SEK 4.9 million; excluding these costs, third quarter results
improved significantly compared with previous quarters this year and clearly
demonstrate our commitment to move toward a profitable business.

Genovis’ product portfolio consists of two types of enzymes, proteases and
glycosidases. The market for proteases for use throughout the life science area
is approximately USD 100 million annually. All proteases that Genovis introduced
in this market since 2010 currently account for about 2 percent of the market,
and we intend to further increase our market share moving forward. Since its
inception, Genovis has built on the idea that a good business is based on
delivering a unique product that has a high value for the customer. Genovis has
also chosen a path that has not been trodden before, and our philosophy for
achieving high value is that it is necessary to go where others have not gone
before. The products launched earlier this year continue to grow beyond
expectations and thereby contribute to reducing Genovis’ dependence on
individual products. The products we will launch in the future will also be
unique and solve important problems for our customers.

We can conclude that the third quarter confirms that we are improving our
business through close relationships with our customers. Solving our customers’
problems and challenges with unique products will drive our sales even further.
We will therefore continue to prioritize sales and marketing with the launch of
new products.

In addition, the number of scientific publications in which our enzymes were
used almost doubled this year compared with last year, yet another confirmation
of the uniqueness and relevance of our products to our customers. I am extremely
pleased and proud of all employees at Genovis who contribute their energy and
creativity every day to find new and more effective solutions to our customers’
problems.
