Board of Directors’ Report


Lifeline SPAC I


Lifeline SPAC I is a Finnish Special Purpose Acquisition Company founded for corporate acquisitions. We raised capital with an offering and listed on the SPAC segment of the regulated market of Nasdaq Helsinki. Our objective is to carry out an acquisition within 24-36 months from the IPO.

We offer investors an opportunity to invest in companies that retail investors or many institutional investors otherwise would not be able to invest in, because these kinds of investments are typically made by later-stage private equity funds. Our aim is to generate profit for shareholders and increase the value of the target company by supporting its growth and development also after the acquisition1.

The so-called sponsors of Lifeline SPAC I are partners of the Lifeline Ventures venture capital firms2 Timo Ahopelto, Kai Bäckman, Petteri Koponen and Juha Lindfors (the ”Sponsors”).


Investment Strategy


The primary strategy of Lifeline SPAC I is to identify and acquire an unlisted target company with high growth potential operating in the technology sector. The core of our strategy is to carry out the acquisition through a share consideration, in which case the funds raised by the company from the IPO will be used to finance the growth of the target company.

Our investment strategy includes detecting such corporate acquisition targets and carrying out such acquisitions that will provide considerable long-term value to shareholders. We are seeking a target company with excellent long-term growth and internationalization potential that we, along with our Sponsors, can support and accelerate.

Our target segments include, for instance, enterprise software, healthtech, climate technology, digital consumer products and services, as well as robotics and hardware. These technology segments represent markets that are extremely large globally, with also a very strong growth outlook.

Generally speaking, the Company’s investment strategy is rooted in the notion that the best possible way of creating value for the shareholders in the long term is to select a target company whose growth and development may be supported through leveraging the company’s extensive expertise and experience as well as its international contact network.

Financial development


Lifeline SPAC I’s operating loss for the financial period 13 August – 31 December 2021 was EUR 7.0 million and the loss for the financial period was EUR 7.2 million. Earnings per share (basic and diluted) was EUR -4,273. Typically for a SPAC company in the search phase, the Company had no revenue during the financial period.

The majority of the Company’s operating expenses consisted of personnel expenses, as a result of the treatment of subscriptions for Sponsor and Founder Warrants and series B shares made by the Company’s Sponsors, members of the Board of Directors and management as transactions under IFRS 2 Share-based Payments. The Company recorded a total of approximately EUR 6.8 million expenses in employee benefits from the difference between the subscription prices and the fair values of the warrants and the series B shares. This one-off expense had no cash flow effect.

The Company’s other operating expenses, totalling EUR 0.1 million, consisted mainly of administrative services related to company’s operations.

The Company’s financial expenses, totalling EUR 0.2 million, consisted mainly of costs related to the IPO, which had been allocated as an expense to the financial period.

The Company’s return on equity during the financial period was -366.2%4.


Financial Position and Cash Flow


Lifeline SPAC I’s balance sheet total on 31 December was EUR 102.2 million. The EUR 100 million proceeds raised from the issue of series A shares in the IPO have been deposited in an escrow account and are therefore presented in other receivables in the Company’s balance sheet. Series A shares are financial instruments subject to IAS 32 and, due to the redemption clause included in them, the share subscription prices have been recognised in current and non-current financial liabilities and measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

At the end of the financial period, the Company’s cash and bank receivables were EUR 2.0 million. If the Company needs additional working capital for the search of the target company and its operations, the Company’s Sponsors have undertaken to subscribe for a maximum of 200,000 series A shares of the Company at a subscription price of EUR 10.00 per share.

The Company’s cash flow from operating activities totalled EUR -0.4 million. There was no cash flow from investing activities during the financial period. Cash flow from financing activities totalled EUR 2.4

million, consisting of proceeds raised through the IPO, deposit to the escrow account, proceeds raised through subscriptions for Sponsor and Founder Warrants and series B shares by the Company’s Sponsors, members of the Board of Directors and management, as well as the total cost of the IPO.

At the end of the financial period, the Company’s equity ratio was 3.8%5 and shareholders’ equity per share was EUR 1.576.


Shares, Shareholders and Share Price Development


Lifeline SPAC I’s share capital was EUR 80,000 in the end of the financial period and the number of shares totalled 12,500,000. Lifeline SPAC I has two series of shares. Series A shares (FI4000512496) are listed on the SPAC segment of the regulated market of Nasdaq Helsinki. Series B shares (FI4000512124) are held by the Company’s Sponsors, members of the Board of Directors and management and are not publicly traded. In the end of the financial period, the number of series A shares totalled 10,000,000 and the number of series B shares 2,500,000.

The average weighted number of series B shares during the financial period was 1,685,616.


All of the Company’s shares carry equal voting and economic rights, except for the redemption condition of series A shares and the exclusion of the right to dividend and distribution of assets and of the right to distributive share in the dissolution of the Company of series B shares. Series B shares can be converted into series A shares if the conditions set out in the Articles of Association, which are described in the Company’s listing prospectus, are met.

In accordance with the Company’s Articles of Association, the Company’s sponsors and the Company’s founder-CEO Tuomo Vähäpassi have, until the acquisition and two years thenceforth, together the right upon written notice to the company to appoint two members of the Board, in aggregate. The General Meeting appoints the other from three to six ordinary members. The Board of Directors elects a Chair from among its members.

Key Business Risks and Uncertainties


For comments on the geopolitical uncertainty due to Russia’s invasion on Ukraine, imposed sanctions and possible future sanctions and counter sanctions and their possible impacts on Lifeline SPAC I’s operations, please see section ”Events After the Reporting Period”.

The risks and uncertainties related to Lifeline SPAC I’s business are described in the listing prospectus. The key risks and uncertainties are as follows:


Future Outlook


Lifeline SPAC I is in the search phase, in which it identifies and analyses possible target companies with the aim to complete the Acquisition of a high growth potential Nordic technology company within


24-36 months of the IPO. Taken the nature of the Company’s activities as a SPAC in a search phase, the Company does not issue any specific guidance or other similar future outlook.


Board of Directors’ Proposal for Profit Distribution and Annual General Meeting 2022


Applying Finnish Accounting Standards, Lifeline SPAC I’s distributable funds on 31 December 2021 were EUR 102.1 million. Although the Company prepares its separate financial statements in accordance with IFRS standards, according to the Company’s interpretation and expert statements received by the Company, its distributable funds are primarily determined on the basis of the Finnish Companies Act and thus Finnish Accounting Standards.

The Board of Directors proposes to the General Meeting that no dividend is distributed for the financial period ended 31 December 2021.

Lifeline SPAC I’s Annual General Meeting is intended to be held on Wednesday 18 May 2022. The notice to the General Meeting will be published as a separate release.


Events After the Reporting Period


Lifeline SPAC I received a flagging notification from Mandatum Asset Management Ltd on 27 January 2022, in which the company stated that its direct and indirect holding in all shares and votes in Lifeline SPAC I Plc has exceeded the 5% threshold on 27 January 2022.

On 24 February 2022 Russia started a widespread invasion into Ukraine. As a consequence, the US, the EU and the UK amongst others have imposed sanctions targeting Russia’s ability to access capital and financial markets, sanctioning numerous individuals and banks, as well as trading in general. These sanctions, possible counter sanctions and generally heightened uncertainties may create increased turbulence in the capital markets and impact Lifeline SPAC I’s operations.

On 8 March 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an updated disclosure policy, which became effective immediately. The updated disclosure policy is available on the Company’s website at https://www.lifeline-spac1.com/corporate-governance/disclosure-policy/.


Corporate Governance Statement


Lifeline SPAC I’s corporate governance statement will be published as a report separate from the Board of Directors’ report in the week beginning 21 March 2022 and will also be available on the Company’s website at www.lifeline-spac1.com after its publication.

Notes to the Financial Statement


  1. General Information

    Corporate information


    Lifeline SPAC I Plc (hereinafter "Lifeline SPAC I" or the "Company") (Business ID: 3229349-3), is a Finnish limited liability company acting under Finnish law and planning corporate acquisition as SPAC- Company ("Special Purpose Acquisition Company").

The Company's founders are TSOEH Oy (Tuomo Vähäpassi's related party company) and Mikko Vesterinen. Company’s so-called sponsors are Timo Ahopelto, Kai Bäckman, Petteri Koponen ja Juha Lindfors (together the ”Sponsors”). At the end of financial period all of the Company’s Sponsors were shareholders of Lifeline Ventures9. All Sponsors act in their role personally or through their controlled entities. Lifeline Ventures is not participating in the Company’s operations.

    The Company's first financial year is 13.8.2021-31.12.2021 and its registered financial year is calendar year.

    The Company has not had any other business operations than administration related to establishing SPAC entity and identifying acquisition target. The Company has not had any revenues during the financial year.

    In October 2021 the Company was listed on the SPAC-segment of the Nasdaq Helsinki regulated market (the “IPO”). In the IPO, the Company raised gross assets of EUR 100 million by offering a maximum of 10,000,000 new series A shares for subscription. The IPO was oversubscribed and the listing was carried out as planned. Trading with series A shares began on 15.10.2021.

    Operations and objectives


    The Company’s target is to complete an acquisition ("Acquisition") as defined in the applicable stock exchange rules within 24 months of the listing. The Company's investment strategy includes identifying and making Acquisitions that generate significant long-term financial added value for shareholders. If necessary, the Company may apply to the shareholders for consent for an additional period of 12 months through the Annual General Meeting if the implementation of the Acquisition so requires. The Company's strategy is primarily to identify and acquire an unlisted technology-focused company with high growth potential, which is primarily located in Finland or other Nordic countries. The focus of the Company's strategy is to complete the Acquisition entirely or almost entirely with share consideration,


    image

    9 “Lifeline Ventures” means Lifeline Ventures Fund Management Oy, LLV Fund Management Oy and Lifeline Ventures - investment fund companies.


    in which case the funds raised by the Company through the IPO will be used to finance the growth of the target company.

    The Company's business is not expected to generate revenue prior to the Acquisition.


  2. Basis of Preparation

    Basis of preparation and adoption of IFRS


    The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and IFRIC Interpretations as adopted by European Union as of December 31, 2021.

    The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, unless otherwise stated in the accounting policies below.

    The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the going concern principle.


    The Company's financial statements as of 31 December 2021 cover company's first financial period and thus, there are no comparative periods.

    The Company does not prepare separate FAS financial statements.


    The Company has not had any other business operations than administrative related to the establishment of SPAC entity during the reporting period and Acquisition process. The Company does not have separately reportable segments. The Company's cash flows are mainly related to the funds raised in connection with the IPO and the costs related to the IPO.

    The financial statements have been prepared in euros, which is the Company's functional currency.


  3. Fair Value Measurement

    The Company measures financial instruments at fair value on each balance sheet date.


    Accounting principles


    Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

  4. Financial Assets and Liabilities

    Accounting principles


    A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.

    Financial assets


    The Company's financial assets are measured at fair value on the initial recognition on the trade date, and are classified as subsequently measured at amortized cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), or fair value through profit or loss. The classification is based on the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset and the Company's business model for managing the instruments.

    Amortised cost


    Financial assets are classified at amortised cost, if the objective of holding the asset is to collect contractual cash flows and if the cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest. Financial assets which fulfil both of the conditions are subsequently measured using the effective interest rate method (EIR) and are subject to impairment. Any gains or losses from these financial assets are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised, modified, or impaired.

    The Company’s cash and cash equivalent and deposits to escrow account are classified as financial assets at amortised cost.

    Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss


    Financial assets are classified at fair value through profit and loss when the financial assets are held for trading and when the collection of cash flows are not based on payments of principal and interest and do not pass the SPPI test. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the statement of financial position at fair value with net changes in fair value recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

    The Company does not have financial assets in this category at the reporting date.


    Financial assets at fair value through Other comprehensive income (OCI)


    Debt instruments are classified and measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if the objective of holding the financial asset fulfils both to collect contractual cashflows and to sell the financial assets, and if the cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest. Interest income is recognised in the income statement using the EIR method. The remaining fair value changes are recognised in OCI. Upon derecognition, the cumulative fair value change recognised in OCI is recorded in profit or loss.

    Currently, the Company does not hold any investments in debt instruments classified at fair value through OCI.

    On initial recognition, the Company can make an irrevocable election to classify and measure its equity investments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income when these instruments are not held for sale and when these financial instruments fulfil the requirements of investments to equity instruments under IAS 32. Gains and losses on these financial assets are never reversed to profit or


    loss. Dividends are recognised as other income in the statement of profit or loss when the right of payment has been established, except when the Company benefits from such proceeds as a recovery of part of the cost of the financial asset, in which case, such gains are recorded in OCI.

    Derecognition of financial assets


    The Company derecognises a financial asset when, and only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expires or it transfers the financial asset, and the transfer qualifies for de- recognition.

    When the Company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a pass-through arrangement, it evaluates if, and to what extent, it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Company continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of its continuing involvement. In that case, the Company also recognises an associated liability.

    Financial liabilities


    The Company recognises a financial liability in its statement of financial position when, and only when, the entity becomes party to the contractual provision of the instrument. The Company’s financial liabilities are measured at fair value at initial recognition at trade date and are classified as subsequently measured at amortised cost and fair value through profit or loss. The financial liabilities are classified to their respective current and non-current accounts.

    At amortised cost


    The Company’s financial liabilities classified at amortised cost, such as interest-bearing loans and trade payables are initially recognised at fair value less any related transaction cost and are subsequently measured using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.

    Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit or loss.

    The Company's series A shares are IAS 32 Financial instruments and, due to the redemption condition connected to them, subscription prices of shares, IPO expenses deducted, are recorded as the Company's liability until the completion of the Acquisition and are booked at amortised cost.

    Financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss


    Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit and loss include financial liabilities are held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit and loss.


    Financial liabilities are classified as held for trading if they are incurred for the purpose of repurchasing in the near term. This category includes derivative financial instruments entered into by the Company that are not designated as hedging instruments in hedge relationships as defined by IFRS 9. Currently the Company does not hold any derivative instruments.

    The Company does not have financial assets in this category at the reporting date.


    De-recognition of financial liabilities


    The Company de-recognises financial liabilities when, and only when the obligation of a financial liability specified in its respective contract is discharged, cancelled or it expires. This includes a situation where an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss. The Company has not de- recognised any liabilities during the financial period or the comparable financial periods.

  5. Income Tax

    Accounting principles


    The Company’s income taxes comprise of tax recognized on the taxable income for the financial year as well as deferred taxes. Taxes for the items recognised in the statement of profit and loss are included in income taxes in the statement of profit and loss.

    Current income tax


    Taxes based on taxable income are recorded according to the local tax rules using the applicable tax rate. If there is uncertainty included in the interpretations of the income tax rules, the Company estimates whether it can fully utilize the tax position that is stated in the income tax calculations and the tax recordings are adjusted if necessary.

    Deferred tax


    Deferred tax assets or liabilities are recorded on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial statement carrying amounts at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The Company records a deferred tax liability for all taxable temporary differences.

    The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are re-assessed at each reporting date and


    are recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised in the balance sheet in full.

    The Company offsets the deferred tax assets and deferred liabilities if and only if it has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets and current tax liabilities and the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity.

    Accounting estimates and the management's judgement


    Management judgement is applied in determining the deferred tax assets as the Company is required to make estimations about future taxable profit, the recoverability of the loss carry-forwards and potential changes to tax laws in Finland.

    The Company has not recorded a deferred tax asset from the loss of the financial year due to uncertainty of its recoverability.

  6. Employee Benefits Expenses

    The Company’s employee benefits consist of the following:


  7. Equity

    Payments received from the issue of new shares are recognised under equity, less the transaction costs directly attributable to the issue and less the share of taxes. If the Company purchases its own shares (treasury shares), the consideration paid and the transaction costs directly attributable to the purchase, adjusted for tax effects, are deducted from the equity attributable to equity holders of the Company until the shares are cancelled or re-issued. If the treasury shares in question are subsequently resold or re- issued, the consideration received is recognised directly in the equity attributable to equity holders of the Company, less the transaction costs directly attributable to the issue and less the share of taxes.

    The dividend proposed by the Board of Directors to the Annual General Meeting is not deducted from the Company’s equity until the Annual General Meeting has decided on the payment of the dividend.

    Series A shares can be redeemed under certain conditions, and they hold right to receive one warrant for each three shares free of charge under certain conditions. Series A shares including warrant rights (series 2021-C) less transaction costs that relate to emission of series A shares, have been recorded as liability in accordance with IAS 32.

    In addition to series A shares the Company also has unlisted series B shares and Founder Warrants (series 2021-A) and Sponsor Warrants (series 2021-B) that have been recorded in accordance with IFRS 2 – Share-based payments.

  8. Accounting Estimates and Judgements

    The preparation of IFRS financial statements requires management's judgement and also utilisation of estimations and assumptions. These impact both principles of preparation and recognisable amounts of debts and expenses.

    Related to risk and uncertainty factors, actual events may differ from estimations and judgements made by management, including uncertainty related to the current business environment.


    Estimates and assumptions are evaluated by the management constantly. Changes in accounting estimates are recognised in the period where the change has or will occur and forthcoming periods to which these changes affect.

    The management's estimates and judgements mainly relate to the fair value of share-based payments and estimated time of de-spac.

    Accounting and presentation of shares and warrants issued through the IPO require considerable judgement relating to application of accounting standards, classification and valuation and presentation in the Company’s financial statements.

The proceeds from the IPO have been deposited to an escrow account managed by a bank independent from the Company. The funds will remain in the escrow account until the Acquisition has been completed. The funds deposited to the escrow account were a total of EUR 100 million. Due to a negative reference rate, the Company pays 0.5 % interest for the funds deposited to the escrow account starting from 1 January 2022.

Such funds that are not available for the Company's use are presented in other receivables and are not classified as cash or cash equivalents. The completion of the Acquisition within the next 12 months is uncertain and therefore the funds deposited on the escrow account have been classified as non-current receivables.

The Company may not be able to complete the Acquisition within 36 months, which may result in the discontinuation of trading in the Company’s series A shares and the Company has to be placed into


liquidation, in which case there is a significant risk that the investor will not recover all the invested capital.

On the record date set by the Board of Directors, which is 30 days from the General Meeting deciding on the Acquisition, all series A shareholders will be issued one Investor Warrant for every three series A shares held by the shareholder, entitling them to subscribe for one new series A share with a subscription price of EUR 11.50 per share in accordance with the terms of the Investor Warrants’ subscription period. A maximum of 3,333,333 Investor Warrants may be issued, which entitle to subscribe for a maximum of 3,333,333 series A shares in the Company.

The subscription period for the Investor Warrants begins and the Investor Warrants are issued from the trading day following the record date and the subscription period continues for five years from the beginning of the subscription period. The Investor Warrants are to be included in the book-entry system maintained by Euroclear Finland and applied for on the multilateral trading facility maintained by Nasdaq Helsinki as soon as possible from the beginning of the subscription period. Investor Warrants are freely transferable. The last trading day of the Investor Warrants is 4 trading days before the end of the subscription period of the Investor Warrants or on another day decided by Nasdaq Helsinki. If the Company’s Board of Directors decides to require premature acceleration of the Investor Warrants, the Company may decide to apply for delisting 4 trading days prior to closing of such extra subscription period of Investor Warrants or on another day decided by Nasdaq Helsinki.


With Investor Warrants, it is possible to subscribe for series A shares in the Company or listed shares of a corresponding combined company during subscription windows. The subscriptions will be made in the order decided by the Company's Board of Directors so that the Investor Warrant holder notifies the share subscription and pays the subscription price to a bank account specified by the Company's Board of Directors and the Company's Board of Directors will register the share subscriptions in the Trade Register as soon as possible at the end of the subscription window. There are subscription windows four times a year from 1 January to 31 March, 1 April to 30 June, 1 July to 30 September and 1 October to 31 December. Shares subscribed with Investor Warrants provide the same rights as other series A shares of the Company as of the date of registration in the Trade Register.

If a total of more than 50,000 series A shares are subscribed with Investor Warrants, the Company's Board of Directors may decide on an additional subscription window and register all subscribed shares in the Trade Register on an accelerated schedule.

The Company’s right to require the subscription for shares


The Company’s Board of Directors has the right to require that a shareholder subscribes for series A shares in the Company or listed shares in a corresponding combined company with Investor Warrants after the day in which the closing price of series A shares (or shares in a corresponding combined company) on Nasdaq Helsinki or on another regulated market or multilateral trading facility in which the series A shares have been admitted to trading on the company’s application, equals or exceeds EUR 18 for 10 consecutive business days.

If the Company decides to require using Investor Warrants for subscribing for series A shares in the Company, the Company will publish a release on the decision and an additional subscription window for the Investor Warrants.

Holders of Investor Warrants have 45 days from the date of notification, including the date of notification, to subscribe for the Company's series A shares at a subscription price of EUR 11.50. Thereafter, unused Investor Warrants expire as worthless so that the remaining Investor Warrants are no longer granted subscription windows. Expired Investor Warrants may be delisted from trading pursuant to the terms of Investor Warrants.

  4. Principles of Capital Management

    The Company's objective is to create and secure a strong capital base to maintain investors', creditors' and financial markets' confidence in the Company. A strong capital base provides prerequisites for accomplishing the Acquisition and enables the Company to provide funding for the growth of a target company as well as to continue its own operations on an ongoing concern basis.

    The Company’s Sponsors or the companies controlled by them have also committed to subscribe for a maximum of 200,000 of the Company's series A shares at a subscription price of EUR 10.00 per share and a maximum of EUR 2 million in total, for potential additional working capital needed up until the General Meeting approving the business combination.

  5. Financial Risk Management

    Financial risk management objectives and policies


    The Company has no revenue or other income yet. The Company has also not had any foreign currency denominated transactions. Therefore, the Company is not exposed to interest rate or exchange rate risk or other market risks.

    Credit risk


    Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty to a financing agreement will default on its obligations to the Company and thereby causes the Company a credit loss.

    The Company is applying simplified method under IFRS 9 for booking of provision for expected credit losses. Of all accounts receivables and receivables from contracts, expected credit loss is booked for entire validity period.

    The Company evaluates credit risk for 12 months period. The Company's assets mainly consist of bank deposits to an escrow account and bank account, which both were at Danske Bank A/S Finnish branch and together amounted to approximately EUR 102 million. Danske Bans A/S’s rating for deposits is A+. The Company has estimated that the expected credit loss is EUR 0.0 million and no credit loss provisions have been booked at 31.12.2021

    Interest rate risk


    The Company’s deposits are subject to interest rate risk. According to an agreement, the Company pays starting from 1.1.2022 interest for the amounts deposited on the escrow account if reference rate is negative. Interest is based on ECB’s reference rate that was -0.5% at the end of reporting period 31.12.2021


    Interest rate risk (EUR million)

    2022

    1 % increase in interest rate impact on profit before tax

    +0.5

    1 % decrease in interest rate impact on profit before tax

    -1.0


    Liquidity risk


    Liquidity risk refers to the risk that the Company's liquid assets and additional financing opportunities will not be sufficient to cover business needs. The objective of liquidity risk management is to maintain sufficient liquid assets so that the financing of the Company's business is continuously secured. From the point of view of liquidity, the most significant risk is related to the success of both the IPO process and the Sponsors' venture capital investment.

    The Board of Directors considers that the liquidity of the Company on 31.12.2021 is sufficient to cover the Company's needs for at least the following 12 (twelve) months. The Company's Sponsors have committed to subscribe for a maximum of 200,000 series A shares at a subscription price of EUR 10.00 per share, if the Company needs additional working capital for the target companies' research and to finalise the acquisition after listing.

  6. Events after the Reporting Period

Lifeline SPAC I received a flagging notification from Mandatum Asset Management Ltd on 27 January 2022, in which the company stated that its direct and indirect holding in all shares and votes in Lifeline SPAC I Plc has exceeded the 5% threshold on 27 January 2022.

On 24 February 2022 Russia started a widespread invasion into Ukraine. As a consequence, the US, the EU and the UK amongst others have imposed sanctions targeting Russia’s ability to access capital and financial markets, sanctioning numerous individuals and banks, as well as trading in general. These sanctions, possible counter sanctions and generally heightened uncertainties may create increased turbulence in the capital markets and impact Lifeline SPAC I’s operations.

On 8 March 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an updated disclosure policy, which became effective immediately. The updated disclosure policy is available on the Company’s website at https://www.lifeline-spac1.com/corporate-governance/disclosure-policy/.

Auditor’s Report

To the Annual General Meeting of Lifeline SPAC I Plc Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Lifeline SPAC I Plc (business identity code 3229349-3) for the financial year 13.8.–31.12.2021. The financial statements comprise the balance sheet, income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity, statement of cash flows and notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view of the company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU and comply with statutory requirements.

Our opinion is consistent with the additional report submitted to the Board of Directors.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with good auditing practice in Finland. Our responsibilities under good auditing practice are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report.

We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are applicable in Finland and are relevant to our audit, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

In our best knowledge and understanding, the non-audit services that we have provided to the company are in compliance with laws and regulations applicable in Finland regarding these services, and we have not provided any prohibited non-audit services referred to in Article 5(1) of regulation (EU) 537/2014. The non- audit services that we have provided have been disclosed in note 9 to the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Materiality

The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. The materiality is determined based on our professional judgement and is used to determine the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of identified misstatements on the financial statements as a whole. The level of materiality we set is based on our assessment of the magnitude of misstatements that, individually or in aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have influence on the economic decisions of the users of the financial statements. We have also taken into account misstatements and/or possible misstatements that in our opinion are material for qualitative reasons for the users of the financial statements.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. The significant risks of material misstatement referred to in the EU Regulation No 537/2014 point (c) of Article 10(2) are included in the description of key audit matters below.

We have also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls. This includes consideration of whether there was evidence of management bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

THE KEY AUDIT MATTER


HOW THE MATTER WAS ADDRESSED IN THE AUDIT



Accounting of the shares and warrants issued in connection with a listing on a regulated market (accounting principles 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8 and notes 10, 11, 12, 17, 22)


  • In October 2021 the Company was listed on the SPAC-segment of the Nasdaq Helsinki regulated market (the “IPO”). In the IPO, the Company raised gross assets of EUR 100 million by offering a maximum of 10,000,000 new series A shares for subscription. The IPO was oversubscribed, and the listing was carried out as planned. Trading with series A shares began on 15.10.2021.

  • Series A shares can be redeemed under certain conditions, and they hold right to receive one warrant for each three shares free of charge under certain conditions.

    Series A shares including warrant rights (series 2021-C) less transaction costs that relate to emission of series A shares, have been recorded as liability in accordance with IAS 32.

  • In addition to series A shares the Company also has unlisted series B shares and Founder Warrants (series 2021-A) and Sponsor Warrants (series 2021-B) that have been recorded in accordance with IFRS 2 – Share-based payments.

  • Accounting and presentation of shares and warrants issued through the IPO require considerable judgement relating to application of accounting standards, classification and valuation and presentation

in the Company’s financial statements.


  • We have formed an understanding of the shares and warrants issued by the company including their terms, accounting principles and practices.

  • We used KPMG’s financial instruments and valuation specialists to assess the accounting of the shares and warrants issued by the company in relation to the applicable IFRS standards and the appropriateness of the assumptions and calculations that have been used by the management in the valuation of share-based payments.

  • In addition, we have tested the accounting entries, payments and expense invoices, as well as reviewed minutes and other documents for transactions related to shares, warrants and transaction costs.

  • We have also assessed the adequacy and appropriateness of the notes to the financial statements related to the shares and warrants issued by the company.


Responsibilities of the Board of Directors and CEO for the Financial Statements

The Board of Directors and CEO are responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU, and of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the laws and regulations governing the preparation of financial statements in Finland and comply with statutory requirements. The Board of Directors and CEO are also responsible for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Board of Directors and CEO are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting. The financial statements are prepared using the going



concern basis of accounting unless there is an intention to liquidate the company or cease operations, or there is no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with good auditing practice will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with good auditing practice, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence and communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.



Other Reporting Requirements

Information on our audit engagement

We were first appointed as auditors by the shareholders on September 22, 2021.

Other Information

The Board of Directors and CEO are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the report of the Board of Directors and the information included in the Annual Report, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. We have obtained the report of the Board of Directors prior to the date of this auditor’s report, and the Annual Report is expected to be made available to us after that date.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. With respect to the report of the Board of Directors, our responsibility also includes considering whether the report of the Board of Directors has been prepared in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations.

In our opinion, the information in the report of the Board of Directors is consistent with the information in the financial statements and the report of the Board of Directors has been prepared in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations.

If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
