Nanoform's CEO Prof. Edward Hæggström:

The first half of 2020 goes to the history books. The COVID-19 global outbreak that started in China in December 2019, hit Europe and the US hard during March 2020. More or less all global travel between countries was banned and all work that could be done remotely was done from home. Fortunately, our commercial team travelled extensively during 2019 and the beginning of 2020 and introduced our technology to many prospective customers, which made follow-up discussions, negotiations and even signing contracts possible virtually. I'm also pleased that we've been able to initiate discussions with entirely new leads during Q2/2020.

I'm very proud that during the first seven months of 2020 we have won more new customers than we did during the entire 2019. I'm confident that the strong commercial momentum will continue, as starting from September 1, we will have doubled the size of our global commercial team after hiring two experienced US-based business development professionals.

Having met our second short-term business target (the first one we met in April, when the Finnish Medicines Agency gave us GMP status) and having successfully listed Nanoform - here I want to take the opportunity to explicitly thank all investors for the faith you have placed in the Nanoform team, the response we got from you during our roadshow was remarkable and energizing - my focus is now on ensuring that Nanoform enters the next stage on its growth trajectory. By that I mean the world of GMP projects supplying material to clinical trials with the long-term vision to help a billion patients. Based on the work done so far I'm confident that we are on track towards achieving our third and fourth short-term business targets, namely starting our first GMP project before year end 2020 and first dosing of nanoformed Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) in humans in 2021.

None of this can be done without our amazing employees and great partners! My sincere THANK YOU to you all for your continued dedication to Nanoform and for the inspiring and innovative work for which we are known. Our journey has only begun, let's make the coming five years as exciting as the first five have been!

• to acquire more new customers in 2020 than in 2019 (achieved in July)
• to start its first GMP project before year-end 2020
• to deliver the first dosing of nanoformed APIs in humans in 2021

• to nanoform at least 50 new APIs annually
• to have in place 25 operating production lines of which 5 to 10 are expected to be GMP production lines
• over 90 percent gross margin
• approximately 200 employees
• to be cash flow positive
