Flat Capital AB (publ) ("Flat") publishes its interim report for January-March 2024. Net asset value per share decreased by -2.4% compared to the previous quarter to SEK 8.20 per share. During the quarter, two investments were announced; in the legal AI company Harvey through a so-called Special Purpose Vehicle ("SPV"), and the data and AI company Oden Technologies that serves the manufacturing industry. Flat recognize a somewhat improving market environment and with a strong cash position the company intend to take advantage of the attractive opportunities that arise through Flat's global and unique network.
Financial position
- Net asset value amounted to 402 175 KSEK, corresponding to 8.20 SEK per share, a decrease of -2.4% per share for the quarter.

The period January-March 2024
- Change in value of financial assets amounted to -10 442 KSEK (-25 066) and consist mainly of changes in the value of three major holdings: OpenAI +30,124 KSEK, Getir -28 779 KSEK and Instabee -18 067 KSEK.
- We also note a continued strong performance among our US-based AI holdings. For example, Perplexity, one of Flat's most recent investments of around 3 MSEK, recently completed a new capital round at more than double its valuation, just a few months after its last round in which Flat invested.

Significant investments and divestments during the quarter
- Flat invested approx. 10 MSEK in the legal AI company Harvey through a SPV. Harvey has quickly become a distinguished generative AI platform for the professional services sector such as law and accounting firms with revenues more than tenfold since April 2023. The company completed a capital round in December 2023, together with prominent investors such as OpenAI Startup Fund, Sequoia Capital, Kleiner Perkins and Elad Gil. Flat’s investment through the SPV structure involves market-based management costs.
- Flat invested the equivalent of approx. 10 MSEK in the US-based Oden Technologies ("Oden"), a prominent data and AI company with a focus on the manufacturing industry. Flat invested through a Series B round of a total of approx. 300 MSEK, where the capital will primarily be used to accelerate Oden's AI venture. Flat invested alongside Nordstjernan Growth, which led the round, together with participation from the majority of previous investors such as Atomico and EQT Ventures as well as one of Oden's customers, INX International Inc.
