FOUNDER’S COMMENT
We leave an eventful quarter behind us, not least from a macroeconomic perspective. Inflation, rising interest rates and skyrocketing energy prices have resulted in increasing concern for household finances. From an Albert perspective, it has therefore been more important than ever to frequently and carefully analyze purchasing and usage behavior during the summer months to ensure the return on our investments in growth.

We look back with pride on the third quarter of the year where we managed to deliver an effective summer campaign in the B2C business area that resulted in growth in our annual recurring revenue (ARR) with a return that was within the framework we felt safe investing within. Compared to the previous quarter (Q2), we have seen declining customer acquisition costs and high conversion rates and solid new customer acquisition in all our markets, which overall reinforces our belief that quality educational services for children have continued to be in high demand among family household. The synergies at group level between the acquired businesses are now starting to be realized and are bearing fruit in the operational business, not least through the launch of a broader consumer offer for Sumdog on the British market, which during the third quarter has been one of our most important markets.

Furthermore, our business area B2B has had a quarter behind it with many customers renewing their contracts as well as new customer activity that went well in connection with the start of school which fell at the end of the quarter. At group level, we now pass SEK 151 million in recurring revenue (ARR), which has been an important milestone and good growth compared to both the previous quarter and compared to the same quarter last year. During the past quarter, we have also started the implementation of Bamse in our products within the framework of the agreement entered into with Egmont. The development work has proceeded according to plan and we look forward to being able to offer both our existing and new customers fun learning with well-known children's characters.

Also, we have continued to commit time and resources to our M&A pipeline as we see good opportunities to drive growth while accelerating our journey towards profitability at group level via strategically important acquisitions. We see that company valuations are normalized and developed to become more attractive even in the non-public market, which over time will result in opportunities we will want to execute on. We also note in our dialogues that other European actors and entrepreneurs are attracted to join our journey towards becoming the leading European Ed-Tech actor.

From a business development perspective, during the quarter we maintained a high level of activity in our offerings with the
aim of improving our operational key figures. A successful sample of new offers we like to highlight is the introduction of
annual subscriptions to our customers via our websites, where the results have been promising and rolled out widely in the
Swedish market.

When we look back on the past quarter, we note that we are putting another stable quarter behind us. A quarter where we take clear steps towards our communicated financial goals as well as our goal of becoming a leading player on the European EdTech market. The fact that we succeed in delivering this in a challenging macroeconomic
climate strengthens our belief that we have a powerful and relevant offer both for parents, children, schools and
teachers and that promises an exciting future. An offer that we also intend to strengthen further in the future and
that will lead us forward in our vision of democratizing education for everyone through technology.
