  · ArcticZymes growth driven by strong sales in the therapeutic segment and

  · The Group delivered positive EBITDA with NOK 13.8 million (Q1 2019: NOK -3.9

CEO Jethro Holter comments:

"We are delighted with another outstanding quarterly performance by delivering a
profitable quarter of close to NOK 13.8 million EBITDA. Both the ArcticZymes and
Biotec BetaGlucans businesses have contributed to top line growth with
ArcticZymes delivering the best quarterly sales performance so far. For
ArcticZymes, the main growth drivers were from strong sales in the Salt Active
Nuclease (SAN) product line, and upsides from Cod UNG and other enzymes, which
have been rapidly incorporated into coronavirus diagnostics assays by several of
our customers. We expect these short-term upsides to continue but then subside
once the coronavirus outbreak passes. Longer-term the company will focus on
supporting its partners in developing the next generation of COVID-19 diagnostic
tests."

"Execution of the Company's new strategic direction following the recent
structural reorganisation has got off to a flying start. Q1 performance has
cemented the foundations in delivering on our promise to drive the company into
profitability during 2020."

"Furthermore, with ArcticZymes representing the company's core business, we are
inspired and excited to initiate a rebranding initiative to rename the parent
company to ArcticZymes Technologies. The new name builds on ArcticZymes strong
brand position, which has resonated well with its customers and shareholders.
ArcticZymes Technologies extends this further by reflecting the future direction
and purpose of the company."
