CEO statement.

The high point of the first quarter was undoubtedly Brighter's participation in Arab Health - the largest healthcare exhibition in the Gulf region. The UAE and other countries in the region have some of the world's highest rates of diabetes prevalence, and the United Arab Emirates Ministry of Health and Prevention (MOHAP) invited Brighter to demonstrate our Actiste solution as part of their exhibit at the event.

It was an excellent few days, in which we also participated in workshops with key stakeholders in the region to discuss the growing diabetes challenge and how to tackle it. The people we demonstrated Actiste to appreciate the solution, and we made a number of important new contacts from across the region. We are continuing to work with MOHAP and I hope to have more news to share with you about the co-operation soon.

Much of the rest of the first quarter - and into the second - was spent working on various financing arrangements and share issuances. In April, we announced that two new investors would together invest SEK 9.6 million through a directed share issue. IT entrepreneur and founder of Swedish IT company Netsafe International, Emanuel Lipschütz, has invested SEK 9.5 million. Tove Andersson, founder of KryptoGäris - Scandinavia's largest crypto and blockchain network for women - has invested SEK 70,000. Both Emanuel and Tove now also have seats on Brighter's Board.

Speaking of board changes, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Board for their confidence in nominating me to the position of CEO, effective 9th May 2019. In conjunction with this change, outgoing CEO Truls Sjöstedt has taken the position of Executive Chairperson of the Board.

Brighter is and always will be a company based on Truls' vision, so I want to stress that he will continue to work with me on guiding Brighter towards achieving the potential so many people have invested in. Our intention is that going forward, Truls will focus on Brighter's short and longer-term growth strategies, whereas I will take the lead on tactics to realize those strategies out in the market.

I look forward to sharing much good news with you as we move forward!

Best wishes,
Henrik Norström, CEO of Brighter AB
