"As we consider Olink’s future, the combination of further disciplined investment into the organization plus our strong growth prospects, should help drive our return to sustained profitability next year, and long-term value creation.” Total revenue for the third quarter of 2022 was $31.8 million, as compared to $20.0 million for the third quarter of 2021, growing 59% year over year. Third quarter 2022 kits revenue of $13.4 million represented 42% of total revenue, versus 26% in the second quarter. Kits yearly revenue growth of 265% was led by very strong performance from Explore. Analysis services revenue for the third quarter of 2022 was $15.1 million, flat year-over-year. Other revenue was $3.2 million for the third quarter of 2022, as compared to $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2021, with Signature Q100 providing the largest contribution. By geography, revenue during the third quarter of 2022 was $12.4 million in Americas, $15.0 million in EMEA (including Sweden), and $4.4 million in China and RoW (including Japan). Adjusted EBITDA was ($1.7) million for the third quarter of 2022, as compared to ($7.5) million for the third quarter of 2021.

By segment, adjusted gross profit margin for kits was 89% for the third quarter of 2022, as compared to 91% for the third quarter of 2021; and reported gross profit margin for kits was 87% for the third quarter of 2022, as compared to 88% for the third quarter of 2021.

Total operating expenses for the third quarter of 2022 were $29.0 million, as compared to $24.1 million for the third quarter of 2021.

Net loss per share for the third quarter of 2022 was ($0.01) based on a weighted average number of outstanding shares of 119,098,118; as compared to a net loss per share of ($0.05) in the third quarter of 2021 based on a weighted average number of outstanding shares of 119,007,062. 2022 guidance Olink expects full year 2022 revenue to be in the range of $138 million to $142 million; representing strong growth of 45% to 49%; with constant currency revenue expected near the top end of this range, and reported revenue expected near the bottom end of this range when including unexpected foreign currency headwinds.

Statement regarding use of non IFRS financial measures


 
3 Olink press release I Third quarter 2022 report We present certain non-IFRS financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. We believe that the use of these non-IFRS measures facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance. We caution readers that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted gross profit margin by segment, and constant currency revenue growth, may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies. Not all companies and Wall Street analysts calculate the non- IFRS measures we use in the same manner. We compensate for these limitations by reconciling each of these non-IFRS measures to the nearest IFRS performance measure, which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. We are not able to forecast constant currency revenue on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting foreign currency exchange rates and, as a result, are unable to provide a reconciliation to forecasted constant currency revenue.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. General information
On January 27, 2021, Knilo HoldCo AB was registered as a Swedish public limited company and renamed as Olink Holding AB (publ) (Olink or the “Company"). The Company has ten wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries develop, produce, market and sell biotechnological products and services along with thereof related activities. The Company is located at Uppsala Science Park, Dag Hammarskjölds väg 54A, SE-752 37 UPPSALA, Sweden.

On March 29, 2021, the Company completed its initial public offering (the “Offering”) in the United States. The Company’s American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) were approved for listing on The Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the trading ticker symbol “OLK”. Trading on Nasdaq commenced at market open on March 25, 2021. The ultimate parent of the Company is Summa Equity Holding AB, Stockholm, Sweden.

The Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on November 10, 2022.
2. Basis of preparation and summary of significant accounting policies

2.1. Basis of preparation
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The Company has prepared the financial statements on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern. The Directors consider that there are no material uncertainties that may cast doubt over this assumption and that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and not less than 12 months from the end of the reporting period.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of US dollars unless otherwise stated.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report filed on Form 20-F as of December 31, 2021.


2.2. New standards, interpretations and amendments
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, except for the adoption of new standards effective as of January 1, 2022. The Company has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.


5


Several amendments apply for the first time in 2022: Reference to the Conceptual Framework – amendments to IFRS 3, Property, Plant and Equipment - Proceeds before Intended Use– amendments to IAS 16, Onerous Contracts - Cost of Fulfilling a Contract - amendments to IAS 37 and Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018-2020– amendments to IFRS 1, IFRS 9, IFRS 16, and IFRS 41. None of these amendments have a material impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.

3. Significant accounting estimates and judgments
In preparing these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation and uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected, and we expect will continue to adversely affect, elements of our business. COVID-19 has primarily disrupted the customer end of the supply chain, with some customer labs operating at reduced capacity. Our production and manufacturing facilities are located in Uppsala, Sweden and Waltham, Massachusetts and we have not to date experienced any material disruptions to our production or supply of goods. However, we increased our inventory level in 2020 and 2021 in order to operate with a higher level of inventory than we have done historically.  
 
We are continuing to closely monitor how the pandemic and related response measures and the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine, are affecting our business. At September 30, 2022 we concluded there was no evidence of material changes to recoverability risk of business assets, including deferred tax assets and trade receivables. Olink does not have significant sales or direct supply from Russia, Belarus, or Ukraine, though the impact from the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine on macro-economic conditions is currently unknown and could in the future have a negative effect on our results of operations, cash flows, financial condition or growth plans. Although we have not yet detected an increase in cyberattacks or attempted cyberattacks, we continue to closely monitor our IT systems based on the general risk of potential cyberattacks by state or quasi-state actors as a result of the Russia/Ukraine conflict.
4. Segments and Revenue from contracts with customer

4.1. Description of segments and principal activities
Operating segments are reported based on the financial information provided to the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The CEO is identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) of the Company. The CODM monitors the operating results of its operating segments separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment. Evaluation of segment performance is primarily based on revenue growth. Profit or loss is measured consistently with net profit or net loss in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. The CODM monitors the operating segments based on revenue growth and gross profit under two segments: Kit and Service. All other operating segments have been aggregated and are included within the Corporate / Unallocated heading.

The Company’s research and development activities, sales & administrative activities, financing (including finance costs, finance income and other income) and income taxes are managed on a corporate basis and are not allocated to operating segments. Such expenditure is included in corporate/ unallocated.

4.4. Seasonality of operations
The Company experiences seasonality in revenue due to customers’ annual budget cycle. The seasonality results from several factors, including the procurement and budgeting cycles customers, especially government or grant-funded customers, whose cycles often coincide with government fiscal year ends. Similarly, biopharmaceutical customers typically have calendar year fiscal years which also result in a disproportionate amount of purchasing activity occurring during the fourth quarter. The seasonality impacts both segments; therefore, higher revenues and operating profits are usually expected in the second half of the year rather than in the first six months. This information is provided to allow for a better understanding of the results; however, management has concluded that this is not ‘highly seasonal’ in accordance with IAS 34.

6. Share capital
(A)Reorganization of share structure
On March 16, 2021, the Company’s shareholders approved the adoption of new articles of association which provided for the reorganization of existing common and preferred shares into one single share class. Pursuant to the new articles of association, each class of shares were reorganized into one class of common shares as follows:
The common shares series A have been re-designated as 56,221,500 common shares;
The common shares series B have been re-designated as 250,000 common shares;
The preferred share series A have been re-designated as one common share; and
The preferred shares series B1 have been re-designated as 200,755,561 common shares.
Furthermore, on March 16, 2021, the Company’s shareholders resolved to conduct a reverse share split where the total number of outstanding common shares (257,227,062) was consolidated into 105,771,768 common shares.

(B)Initial public offering
9


On March 29, 2021, the Company completed an initial public offering of 13,235,294 ADSs, representing 13,235,294 common shares, at an initial public offering price of $20.00 per share. The net proceeds from the initial public offering were $249.3 million, after deducting the underwriting discounts, net of deferred taxes, and other initial public offering costs associated with the filing.

Following the initial public offering on March 29, 2021 the Company had 119,007,062 shares outstanding.

(C)New share issue
On March 29, 2022, the Company issued 91,056 shares, associated with the vesting of RSUs in the incentive award plan. Following this new share issue, the Company had 119,098,118 shares outstanding.

(D)Incentive award plan

On April 7, 2022 at the Annual General Meeting, our shareholders resolved to adopt two long term incentive programs, LTI I 2022 and LTI II 2022 and simultaneously approved and made effective our Amended and Restated 2021 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan amends and restates the 2021 Incentive Award Plan, which was initially adopted by the Company on March 16, 2021, and approved by the shareholders of the Company on March 16, 2021, in connection with approval by the Company’s shareholders of LTI 2021 (the “Original Plan”). The principal purpose of the Plan is to attract, retain and motivate selected employees, consultants and directors through the granting of share-based compensation awards and cash-based performance bonus awards. The company has previously filed a registration statement on Form S-8 covering 1,085,900 shares under the Original Plan and has now registered an additional 594,403 common shares under the Amended and Restated 2021 Incentive Award Plan. A total of 1,680,303 shares are available for issuance pursuant to a variety of stock-based compensation awards, including stock options, restricted stock unit awards and performance-based restricted stock unit awards; provided, however, that no more than 1,680,303 additional shares may be issued. Shares available under LTI 2021, LTI I 2022 and LTI II 2022 will, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, be issued when the awards under the respective program vest over a four-year period from grant date, and, in case of stock options, upon the option holder exercising the option. The expiration date on stock options awarded under the programs is five years from grant date.

In connection with the closing of the initial public offering, the Company granted options to purchase an aggregate of 620,675 common shares out of the Original Plan, of which 442,789 options were granted to certain executive officers and directors, in each case with an exercise price equal to 125% of the initial public offering price of $20.00. During the second quarter of 2022, 107,074 options that had been approved at the Annual General Meeting on April 7, 2022, were awarded to certain executive officers and directors, in each case with an exercise price of $17.39. Such options shall vest over four years, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan. The expiration date on the options is five years from grant date.

The share-based compensation cost is calculated according to the following: Fair value per option at grant date multiplied by the number of outstanding share options multiplied by the number of days passed and divided by the total number of days in the vesting period. To calculate fair value per share option at the grant date, the principles of the Black-Scholes model have been used. The expense associated with these stock options amounted to $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The expense associated with these stock options amounted to $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. These are recorded within selling, administrative and research and development expenses within the income statement.

During the third quarter of 2021, 465,225 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that had been approved at the Annual General Meeting on March 16, 2021 were awarded to employees currently employed by Olink under the Original Plan. Of this, 251,583 RSUs were outstanding as of September 30, 2022, of which 81,054 to our executive officers. During 2022, 587,445 RSUs that had been approved at the Annual General Meeting on April 7, 2022 were awarded to employees currently employed by Olink under the Plan. 582,102 RSUs are outstanding as of September 30, 2022, of which 112,493 RSUs were granted to our executive officers. The RSUs will vest during a four-year period; new shares will be issued when the RSU’s vest.

The expense associated with these RSUs amounted to $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The expense associated with these RSUs amounted to $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. These are recorded within selling, administrative, research and development and cost of goods sold expenses within the income statement.

The following is a summary of the RSU activity under the Company’s plan and related information as of September 30, 2022, and changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2022:

7. Fair values
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, the fair values of cash at bank, accounts receivables, other receivables, accounts payable, and advance payments from customers approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. There were no loan facilities as of September 30, 2022 nor as of December 31, 2021.
8. Related-party transactions
The Company entered the following related party transaction in the prior year period:
Management Service Agreements
11


On March 25, 2021, the Company terminated the Summa management service agreement and concurrently paid the success fee of approximately $2.25 million in connection with the initial public offering.
The Company did not enter any related party transaction agreements in the period current year.
9. Earnings per share
Earnings per share for the Company is calculated by taking the net loss for the period divided by the weighted average of outstanding common shares during the period.

Basic and diluted loss per share(0.01)(0.05)(0.15)(0.37)
As of September 30, 2022, the Company has the following potential common shares that can be potentially dilutive but are antidilutive as of September 30, 2022, and are therefore excluded from the weighted average number of common shares for the purpose of diluted loss per share:

i.549,863 outstanding stock options related to the Amended and Restated 2021 Incentive Award Plan (see note 6)
ii.833,685 restricted stock units related to the Amended and Restated 2021 Incentive Award Plan (see note 6)
As of September 30, 2021, 1,085,900 common shares were available for future issuance, of which options to purchase 620,675 common shares had been granted. These can potentially dilute earnings per share in the future but have not been included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they are antidilutive for the periods presented.

The weighted average number of shares reflect the impact of the Company’s reverse share split as discussed in Note 6 for all periods presented. The accumulated preferred dividend yield established under the Company’s Management Shareholder Agreement ceased, in accordance with this agreement, without any requirement for such accumulated preferred dividend yield to be paid out as a result of the share reorganization that took place on March 16, 2021 in anticipation of the initial public offering. The $4.3 million for September 30, 2021 represents the preferred dividend yield calculated through the March 16, 2021 share reorganization as discussed in Note 6. There is no annual cash dividend declared or payable.

Revenue
Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $31.8 million compared to $20.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase of $11.8 million, or 59%, was driven primarily by Explore Kit revenues, with the Kit segment growing 265%. The Service segment was flat year over year. The Explore platform accounted for 68% of Q3 2022 revenues.

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $82.0 million compared to $51.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase of $30.7 million, or 60%, was driven primarily by increased volumes in both Kit and Service segment.

Gross Profit/Gross Profit Percentage
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $21.0 million compared to $12.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase of $8.6 million, or 69%, was mainly due to year over year revenue growth.
The increase in gross profit percentage of 4% was driven primarily by increased Kit volumes.

Segment Information

Kit Revenues
Kit revenues represented 42% of our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 18% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and grew 265% year over year primarily as a result of continued Explore and Target revenue growth. The Company generated an adjusted gross profit percentage of 89% on Kit revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 91% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in adjusted gross margin for kits was primarily due to lower average selling prices compared to last year.

Kit revenues represented 30% of the Company’s revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 22% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and grew 113% year over year primarily as a result of both Explore and Target revenue growth. The Company generated an adjusted gross profit percentage of 89% on Kit revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 88% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in adjusted gross margin for kits was primarily due to lower manufacturing expenses.
Service Revenues
Service revenues represented 48% of our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 76% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and was flat year over year primarily as a result of the total product mix moved towards the Kit business.
We generated an adjusted gross profit percentage of 55% on Service revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 59% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decline in analysis services margin was driven primarily by increased investments and consumables required for the continued expansion of our lab capacity.  

Service revenues represented 61% of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 71% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and grew 36% year over year primarily as a result of a solid year over year growth in Explore revenues.

We generated an adjusted gross profit percentage of 57% on Service revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 62% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in adjusted gross profit percentage compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily associated with increased investments necessary to increase capacity in our service labs.

Non-IFRS Reconciliations
We present these non-IFRS financial measures because they are used by our management to evaluate our operating performance and formulate business plans. We also believe that the use of these non-IFRS measures facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance. We caution readers that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Percentage may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies. Not all companies and Wall Street analysts calculate the non-IFRS measures we use in the same manner. We compensate for these limitations by reconciling each of these non-IFRS measures to the nearest IFRS performance measure, which should be considered when evaluating our performance.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
We use the non-IFRS measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. We define EBITDA as profit for the year before accounting for finance income, finance costs, tax, depreciation, and amortization of acquisition intangibles. We define Adjusted EBITDA as profit for the year before accounting for finance income, finance costs, tax, depreciation, amortization of acquisition intangibles, and management adjustments and share-based compensation expenses. Management adjustments generally consist of certain cash and non-cash items that we believe are not reflective of the normal course of our business. We identify and determine items to be unique based on their nature and incidence or by their significance. As a result, the composition of these items may vary from year to year.

 We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe this measure can provide useful information to investors and analysts regarding the operational results of the business, as EBITDA is a fairly common metric with which market participants are familiar.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to operating loss, the most directly comparable IFRS measure, is set forth below:

Management adjustments for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 amounted to $1.0 million and mainly refers to costs related to the Nasdaq listing. Management adjustments for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 amounted to $7.9 million of costs associated with the initial and secondary public offerings. Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, includes an add back of $6.0 million of share-based compensation expenses associated with our Amended and Restated 2021 Incentive Award Plan.
Adjusted Gross Profit, including Adjusted Gross Profit Percentage
We use the non-IFRS measure of Adjusted Gross Profit, including Adjusted Gross Profit Percentage. We define Adjusted Gross Profit as revenue less cost of goods sold, which is then adjusted to remove the impact of depreciation and the impact of material transactions or events that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance, such as share-based compensation expenses.
We believe that Adjusted Gross Profit, including Adjusted Gross Profit Percentage, provides important information to management and to investors regarding our core profit margin on sales. These are primary profit or loss measures we use to make resource allocation decisions and evaluate segment performance. Adjusted gross profit assists management in comparing the segment performance on a consistent basis for purposes of business decision-making by removing the impact of certain items we believe do not directly reflect our core operations and, therefore, are not included in measuring segment performance.
Reconciliations of Adjusted Gross Profit to gross profit, the most directly comparable IFRS measure, are set forth below:

We believe that the use of these non-IFRS measures facilitates investors’ assessment of our operating performance. We caution readers that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted gross profit margin by segment, and constant currency revenue growth, may not be the same as similar measures used by other companies. Not all companies and Wall Street analysts calculate the non-IFRS measures we use in the same manner. We compensate for these limitations by reconciling each of these non-IFRS measures to the nearest IFRS performance measure, which should be considered when evaluating our performance. We encourage you to review our financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure. We are not able to forecast constant currency revenue on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and difficulty in predicting foreign currency exchange rates and, as a result, are unable to provide a reconciliation to forecasted constant currency revenue.
