Exhibit 99.1
Olink reports first quarter 2023 financial results

UPPSALA, Sweden, May 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Olink Holding AB (publ) (“Olink”) (Nasdaq: OLK) today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Highlights
First quarter 2023 revenue totaled $27.5 million, representing year over year growth of 21% on a reported basis and 25% on a constant currency adjusted like-for-like basis
Total Explore customer installations reached 63, with 11 installations during the first quarter
Total Signature Q100 placements reached 117, with 26 placements during the first quarter
Explore revenue of $16.9 million accounted for 61% of total first quarter revenue, with Explore Kit revenue totaling $9.4 million, or 56% of total Explore revenues
First quarter kits revenue and analysis services revenue represented 49% and 38% of total revenue, respectively
First quarter 2023 net loss was $(14.0) million, with adjusted EBITDA of $(9.4) million compared to first quarter 2022 net loss of $(12.2) million and adjusted EBITDA of $(9.1) million
Exited first quarter 2023 with a cash balance of $173 million
Olink expects 2023 full year reported revenue to be in the range of $192 million to $200 million, representing growth of approximately 37% to 43% on a reported basis, and growth of approximately 38% to 44% on a constant currency basis; and expects the Company will return to profitability in 2023, as measured by adjusted EBITDA

“Olink continues to make significant strides in the next-generation proteomics market by delivering industry-leading revenue growth, financial momentum, and operational execution,” said Jon Heimer, CEO of Olink. “Our culture of innovation and our exceptional ability to deliver enabling solutions to customers has become a driving force in the omics industry, and we look forward to continuing to execute on our strategy.”

First quarter financial results
“During the first quarter we delivered solid performance along key product metrics while maintaining strong financial discipline,” said Oskar Hjelm, CFO of Olink. "In particular, Olink continues to benefit from our strategy of increasing product mix towards kits, helping drive improvement in our corporate margin over the near- to long-term time horizons.”

Total revenue for the first quarter of 2023 was $27.5 million, as compared to $22.7 million for the first quarter of 2022, growing 21% year over year, and driven primarily by strength in kits.

First quarter 2023 kits revenue of $13.5 million represented 49% of total revenue, compared to 18% for the first quarter of 2022; and grew 239% year over year primarily as a result of Explore Kits, with strength from Target as well.

Analysis services revenue for the first quarter of 2023 was $10.4 million, as compared to $16.6 million for the first quarter of 2022.

Other revenue was $3.5 million for the first quarter of 2023, as compared to $2.1 million for the first quarter of 2022. Other revenue growth was driven primarily by Signature Q100 placements.

By geography, revenue during the first quarter of 2023 was $14.7 million in Americas, $8.8 million in EMEA (including Sweden), and $3.9 million in China and RoW (including Japan).

Consolidated reported gross profit was $17.6 million in the first quarter of 2023, as compared to $13.3 million in the first quarter of 2022; while adjusted consolidated gross profit was $18.4 million in the first quarter of 2023, as compared to $14.2 million in the first quarter of 2022.



Exhibit 99.1
Reported gross profit margin for kits was 81% for the first quarter of 2023, as compared to 85% for the first quarter of 2022; while adjusted gross profit margin for kits was 83% for the first quarter of 2023, as compared to 89% for the first quarter of 2022.

Reported gross profit margin for analysis services was 56% for the first quarter of 2023, as compared to 54% in the first quarter of 2022; while adjusted gross profit margin for analysis services was 62% as compared to 58% in the first quarter of 2022.

Reported and adjusted gross profit margin for Other was 21% for the first quarter of 2023, as compared to 47% for the first quarter of 2022.

Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2023 were $34.9 million, as compared to $29.5 million for the first quarter of 2022. The increase was largely due to continued investment into Olink's commercial organization, research and development team expansion, and additional administrative costs.

Net loss was $(14.0) million for the first quarter of 2023 and adjusted EBITDA was $(9.4) million, as compared to a net loss of $(12.2) million and adjusted EBITDA of $(9.1) million for the first quarter of 2022.

Net loss per share for the first quarter of 2023 was $(0.11) based on a weighted average number of outstanding shares of 122,954,966 as compared to a net loss per share of $(0.10) in the first quarter of 2022 based on a weighted average number of outstanding shares of 119,010,097.

2023 guidance
Olink expects 2023 full year reported revenue to be in the range of $192 million to $200 million, representing growth of approximately 37% to 43% on a reported basis, and growth of approximately 38% to 44% on a constant currency basis.

The Company also expects revenues in 2023 will continue to progress along a seasonal pattern that is weighted toward the second half of the year, and fourth quarter specifically. In addition, Olink believes with continued growth and scale up, it will return to profitability in 2023, as measured by adjusted EBITDA.

Webcast and conference call details
Company management will host a conference call to discuss financial results at 8:00 am ET. Investors interested in listening to the conference call are required to register online here. A live webcast will be available in the “Events” section of the Company's website at https://investors.olink.com/investor-relations. The webcast will be archived and available for replay for at least 90 days after the event.

Statement regarding use of non-IFRS financial measures
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 eleven wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries develop, produce, market and sell biotechnological products and services along with 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 May 11, 2023.
2. Basis of preparation and summary of significant accounting policies

2.1. Basis of preparation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022 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
5


Company’s annual report filed on Form 20-F on March 27, 2023, for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

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, 2022, except for the adoption of new standards effective as of January 1, 2023. The Company has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

Several amendments apply for the first time in 2023, but do not have an impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group.

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, 2022.
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 our customers’ labs operating at reduced capacity for extended portions of 2020, in particular as customers have had issues accessing their labs. Our production and manufacturing facilities are located in Uppsala, Sweden and Waltham, Massachusetts and we have not experienced any material disruptions to our production or supply of goods to date. We increased our inventory level in 2020 and 2021 in order to operate with a higher level of inventory than we have done historically.  Although we have seen a reduction in demand due to the lingering impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have not observed any significant changes in our underlying customer base, and we have been and will continue to serve our customers, even at reduced levels, until their activities return to normal. The gradual recovery of revenue we have seen compared with previous levels reflects the underlying factors affecting demand, including the easing of lockdown restrictions and the partial or full reopening of academic and biopharmaceutical research laboratories around the world. 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. On March 31, 2023 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 uncertain 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
6


closely monitor our IT systems based on the general risk of potential cyberattacks by state or quasi-state actors as a result of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
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 of its 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)New share issue
On March 29, 2022, the Company issued 91,056 shares, associated with the vesting of Restricted stock units ("RSU") in the incentive award plan.

(B)Public offering
On January 18, 2023 the Company launched a public offering of 5,831,028 ADS each representing one common share of the Company (the “ADSs”), consisting of 4,250,000 ADSs offered by the Company and 1,581,028 ADSs offered by certain selling shareholders of the Company (the “Selling Shareholders”). In addition, the Company granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 874,654 additional ADSs. The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the ADSs by the Selling Shareholders. The offering closed on January 23, 2023, with respect to the initial 4,250,000 ADSs offered by the company and 1,581,028 ADSs/shares offered by the selling stockholders. The option granted to the underwriters closed February 13, 2023 with a total of 760,253 ADSs offered by the company pursuant to the time period. The net proceeds from the offering were $96.2 million, after deducting the underwriting discounts, net of deferred taxes, and other public offering costs associated with the filing. The net proceeds of the public offering per the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows of $95.2 million do not reflect the non-cash movement related to the tax-deductible portion of the underwriter fees and other public offering costs.

(C)New share issue        
On March 22, 2023, the Company issued 234,344 shares, associated with the vesting of RSUs in the incentive award plan.

(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 the 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 $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and amounted to $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. These are recorded within selling, administrative and research and development expenses within the income statement.

Revenue
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $27.5 million compared to $22.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase of $4.8 million, or 21%, was driven primarily by Explore Kit revenues, with the Kit segment growing 239%. The Service segment declined with 37% year over year. The Explore platform accounted for 61% of Q1 2023 revenues.

Gross Profit/Gross Profit Percentage
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $17.6 million compared to $13.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase of $4.3 million, or 32%, was mainly due to year over year kit revenue growth.
The increase in gross profit percentage of 5% was driven primarily by increased Kit share in the revenue mix.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023, were $34.9 million compared to $29.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase of $5.4 million, or 18%, was largely due to expansion and investments in the overall Olink organization as well as costs related to the capital raise. 

Segment Information

Kit Revenues
Kit revenues represented 49% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to 18% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and grew 239% year over year primarily as a result of continued Explore and Target revenue growth. The Company generated an adjusted gross profit percentage of 83% on Kit revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to 89% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in adjusted gross margin for kits was primarily due to increased supplier costs and logistics expenses.

Service Revenues
Service revenues represented 38% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to 73% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and declined primarily as a result of the total product mix moving towards the Kit business.
15


We generated an adjusted gross profit percentage of 62% on Service revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to 58% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in analysis services margin was driven primarily by improved operational efficiencies.

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 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 three months ended March 31, 2023, amounted to $1.5 million and primarily include costs related to our January 2023 capital raise. Management adjustments for the three months ended March 31, 2022, amounted to $0.4 million and mainly refers to costs related to recruitment of new board members. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2023, includes an add back of $2.1 million of share-based compensation expenses associated with our Amended and Restated 2021 Incentive Award Plan. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2022, includes an add back of $2.2 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:

Non-IFRS reconciliations 18 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.
