Motive for the Rights Issue

SciBase is a medical technology company specializing in early detection and prevention in dermatology through the commercialization of Nevisense. Nevisense is a patient-centric platform that combines AI (artificial intelligence) and advanced EIS technology (Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy) to increase diagnostic accuracy and thereby ensure the prevention of skin diseases. By enabling doctors to establish correct diagnoses faster, easier, and with greater accuracy, subsequent interventions in healthcare can be initiated more quickly, improving the outlook for patients with serious conditions such as skin cancer. Early detection and intervention have the potential to save lives and minimize patient suffering, as well as the possibility to streamline the healthcare chain and reduce overall healthcare costs.

SciBase has launched Nevisense in the US, which accounts for about three-quarters of the estimated market potential, and is therefore making an effort to establish Nevisense as the industry standard. As part of this, the organization in the US subsidiary has been strengthened with several new sales resources and is now represented in five regions that support and drive sales, which so far in 2024 has shown growth of approximately 177 percent. As an important part of the launch, SciBase continuously works to build strong support among leading US doctors, so-called KOLs (Key Opinion Leaders). Earlier this year, a US consensus report was published, authored by several KOLs, supporting the use of Nevisense for its ability to significantly improve the doctor's diagnostic assessment. In addition, the Company is actively working to strengthen the reimbursement structures for Nevisense with insurers and, in the long term, to have EIS and Nevisense included in clinical guidelines.

Initially, SciBase's main commercialization strategy in the USA is focused on skin cancer, which the Company has been operating with stable and increasing profitability in Germany for a long time. Based on the lessons the Company has learned about profitable growth, a growth strategy will be used for a limited time to reach the installed base of approximately 800-1,000 units deemed necessary for profitability at the group level (given a utilization rate of 6-7 electrodes per week per system). The installed base for profitability includes the approximately 400 systems already installed in the German market, where approximately 200 of the clinics have achieved an average utilization rate of about 6 electrodes per week. Through the profitability of the German market, SciBase plans a gradual and controlled expansion in Europe as well, where other DACH countries (Switzerland and Austria) and Sweden are prioritized. These markets will be addressed with existing resources to maximize the impact on the American market through the proceeds from the Offering. Additionally, the company will, as resources allow, also target other markets if deemed feasible without significant investments.

In the Company's other business area, which focuses on the skin barrier, with a focus on atopic dermatitis, the Company intends to invest in further product development based on the knowledge generated in collaboration with the multiple revenue-generating research collaborations the Company has entered into. The Company's choice to soft-launch the product within the research field means, in addition to early revenue generation, that the product can be developed in a clinical environment and through actual use, which entails significant long-term benefits in the form of shortened development time. SciBase sees great market potential in this field.

• Finance commercialization and reimbursement growth in the USA, approximately 50 percent.
• Finance investments in production and product development, approximately 15 percent.
• Finance working capital for other ongoing operations, such as sales, marketing, production, and capital binding, approximately 35 percent.

In the event that all warrants of series TO 3 are exercised for subscription of shares, the Company will receive at least an additional approximately SEK 81.8 million before issuance costs, which are estimated to amount to approximately SEK 4.5 million. The additional net proceeds, upon full exercise of all warrants of series TO 3, are intended to be used for the same purposes and in the same order of priority as above.

The Rights Issue

Shareholders who are registered in the share register in SciBase on the record date on December 20, 2024, will receive one (1) unit right for each share held in the Company. Unit rights entitle the holder to subscribe for units with preferential rights. Five (5) unit rights entitle for subscription of one (1) unit. One (1) unit consists of three (3) newly issued shares and three (3) warrants of series TO 3. The subscription price is set at SEK 1.35 per unit, corresponding to SEK 0.45 per share (warrants of series TO 3 are issued free of charge), which means that SciBase will receive gross proceeds of approximately SEK 59.3 million before deduction of issuance costs, provided that the Rights Issue is fully subscribed. In addition, investors are offered the opportunity to subscribe for units without the support of unit rights.

Each warrant of series TO 3 entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company during the period from November 24, 2025, to December 5, 2025. The subscription price for subscription of shares with the support of warrants of series TO 3 will be determined to 80 percent of the volume-weighted average price of the Company's share on Nasdaq First North Growth Market during the measurement period commencing on November 10, 2025, and ending on November 21, 2025, however, no less than SEK 0.45 and no more than SEK 0.75 per share.

Provided that the Rights Issue is fully subscribed, the number of shares in SciBase will increase by 131,723,040, to 351,261,444, and the share capital will increase by a maximum of SEK 6,586,152.00 to SEK 17,563,072.20.

Shareholders who choose not to participate in the Rights Issue will have their ownership diluted by up to approximately 37.5 percent (calculated on the total maximum number of outstanding shares in the Company after the completion of the Rights Issue), for which such shareholders will not be compensated. Their relative share of the Company's equity will also decrease. If a shareholder chooses to sell their unused unit rights or if these unit rights are sold on the shareholder's behalf, there is a risk that the compensation the shareholder receives for the unit rights on the market does not correspond to the economic dilution in the shareholder's ownership in SciBase after the Rights Issue is completed.

Upon full exercise of warrants of series TO 3 issued in the Rights Issue, the Company's share capital will increase by an additional maximum of SEK 6,586,152.00 to SEK 24,149,224.20, through the issuance of up to 131,723,040 shares. This corresponds to a dilution effect of approximately 27.3 percent of the shares and votes in the Company after considering the full subscription of shares issued in the Rights Issue.

The last day of trading in SciBase shares including the right to receive unit rights in the Rights Issue is December 18, 2024. The shares will be traded excluding the right to receive unit rights in the Rights Issue from December 19, 2024. The subscription period, with or without the support of unit rights, runs from December 27, 2024, to January 13, 2025. Trading in unit rights will take place on Nasdaq First North Growth Market during the period from December 17, 2024, to January 8, 2025, and trading in BTU (paid subscribed unit) will take place on Nasdaq First North Growth Market from December 27, 2024 until the Rights Issue is registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.

In the event all Units in the Rights Issue are not subscribed for with the support of unit rights, the Board of Directors shall, within the maximum amount of the Rights Issue, resolve on the allotment of units subscribed for without the support of unit rights. In case of over-subscription, allotment shall be made in according to the following principles:

i. Firstly, allocation shall be made to those who subscribed for units with the support of unit rights, regardless of whether the subscriber was a shareholder on the record date or not, and, in case of oversubscription, in relation to the number of unit rights that each party has exercised for the subscription of units, and, if this is not possible, by drawing lots.
ii. Secondly, allocation shall be made to other subscribers who subscribed to Units without the support of unit rights, and, in case of oversubscription, in relation to the subscribed amount, and, if this is not possible, by drawing lots.
iii. Thirdly, allocation of any remaining Units shall be made to guarantors in accordance with signed guarantee commitments. In the event that allotment cannot be made in full, allotment shall be made in proportion to the amount guaranteed by each guarantor and, if this is not possible, by drawing lots.

The complete terms and instructions for the Rights Issue, as well as other information about the Company, will be provided in the prospectus that will be published in connection with the Rights Issue.

The Directed Issue

The Board of Directors has, conditional on the subsequent approval by the extraordinary general meeting, decided on a new issue of 16,669,624 units with deviation from the existing shareholders' preferential rights. All units in the Directed Issue are issued at a subscription price of SEK 1.35 per unit, corresponding to SEK 0.45 per share (the same subscription price as in the Rights Issue). The warrants are issued free of charge. Maria Anderkvist, Praktikerinvest AB, Victor Anderkvist, Haga Gruppen Holding AB, Kåre Gilstring, Ulf Andersson, Johan Gyllenswärd AB, Sven Holmgren, Max Leitgeb, Opthron Förvaltning Aktiebolag, Irene Kotschy, Klimage AB and MLJK Konsult AB will subscribe for units in the Directed Issue for an amount of approximately SEK 21.4 million. The existing shareholders Kåre Gilstring, Klimage AB and MLJK Konsult AB will subscribe for units in the Directed Issue for an amount of approximately SEK 1.1 million. The reason for including existing shareholders among those entitled to subscribe in the Directed Issue is that these owners have expressed and shown a long-term interest in the Company, which according to the Board of Directors creates security and stability for both the Company and its shareholders. Through the Directed Issue, SciBase will receive issue proceeds of approximately SEK 22.5 million before deduction of issuance costs.

Through the Directed Issue, the number of shares in SciBase will increase by 50,008,872 shares, from a total of 351,261,444 shares (calculated on the total number of shares in the Company after the fully subscribed Rights Issue) to a total of 401,270,316. Through the Directed Issue, the share capital of the Company will increase by SEK 2,500,443.60, from SEK 17,563,072.20 (calculated on the Company's share capital after the fully subscribed Rights Issue) to SEK 20,063,515.80. The Directed Issue entails a dilution for existing shareholders of approximately 12.5 percent of the number of shares in the Company (calculated on the total number of shares in the Company after the fully subscribed Rights Issue and Directed Issue).

In the event of full exercise of the warrants of series TO 3 issued in the Directed Issue, the number of shares will increase by an additional 50,008,872 and the share capital will increase by SEK 2,500,443.60, corresponding to a further dilution effect of approximately 11.1 percent of the total number of shares and votes in the Company (calculated on the number of shares in the Company after the fully subscribed Rights Issue and the completed Directed Issue).

The Company's Board of Directors has made an overall assessment and carefully considered raising the necessary capital solely through a rights issue but has concluded that, for several reasons, it is advantageous for the Company and the shareholders to partially raise capital in the Capital Raising through the Directed Issue. Among other things, the Directed Issue reduces the need for guarantee commitments in the Rights Issue and thus also the underwriting compensation. The Directed Issue also strengthens the shareholder base in the Company with professional investors, which is considered positive from a long-term perspective. Since the subscription price in the Directed Issue was determined by the Board of Directors based on discussions with investors at arm's length at a price corresponding to the closing price of the Company's share on Nasdaq First North Growth Market on November 11, 2024, the Board of Directors' assessment is that the subscription price in the Directed Issue reflects current market conditions and demand. Overall, the Directed Issue is considered to be in the interest of the Company and all shareholders.

The shares subscribed for and issued in the Directed Issue do not entitle to participation in the Rights Issue.

Subscription commitments, declarations of intent and guarantee commitments

The Rights Issue is covered by subscription commitments, declarations of intent to subscribe for units and guarantee commitments amounting to approximately SEK 29.9 million, corresponding to approximately 50.4 percent. The subscription commitments amount to approximately SEK 21.2 million, corresponding to approximately 35.8 percent of the Rights Issue. The guarantee commitments from Life Science Invest Fund 1 ApS and Exelity AB (publ) amount to a total of approximately SEK 7.0 million, corresponding to approximately 11.8 percent of the Rights Issue. Declarations of intent to subscribe for units from existing shareholders, senior executives and board members of SciBase amount to a total of SEK 1.6 million, corresponding to approximately 2.8 percent of the Rights Issue. For guarantee commitments, a fee of 13 percent of the guaranteed amount is paid in cash. No compensation is paid for the subscription commitments nor the declarations of intent to subscribe for units. The subscription commitments, declarations of intent to subscribe for units and guarantee commitments are not secured by bank guarantee, escrow funds, pledging, or similar arrangements.

Jan Poulsen, CEO of Life Science Invest Fund 1 ApS, says: "It is with great pleasure, we have accepted an invitation to participate as a guarantor in this financing round for SciBase, because we believe Nevisense is an exceptional product with potential to be a real game changer in dermatology with highly improved diagnostic accuracy and by enabling early detection of skin cancer. After having interviewed the management in different countries, we also have a strong belief in the quality of the management and the ability of the company to deliver growth."
