Financial development
Fourth quarter 2025
Net sales and results
Net sales for the fourth quarter of 2025 amounted to 0 (79) KSEK.
Operating costs, including capitalized costs and depreciation, for the fourth quarter amounted to -10,990 (-15,162) KSEK.

During the fourth quarter of 2025, investments in intangible assets (patents and trademarks) amounted to 121 (43) KSEK. The product development phase was considered completeted during the third quarter of 2024. No further development costs have been capitalized since that time.

Operating result for the fourth quarter amounted to -10,704 (-14,982) KSEK, and the result after tax amounted to -11,244 (-15,476) KSEK.

Cash flow
Cash flow from operating activities during the fourth quarter amounted to -8,616 (-8,713) KSEK.

Total cash flow for the period amounted to -11,683 (-4,577) KSEK. The total cash flow for the year includes a rights issue of 19,547 KSEK after issue costs and repayment of a bridge loan of 2,000 KSEK, raised to secure liquidity until the rights issue was completed.

The existing loan agreement of 20 MSEK, issued by Fenja Capital II A/S in November 2023, was refinanced in November 2025 through a new loan of 6,000 KSEK from Fenja Capital II A/S. In connection with this refinancing, Lumito repaid 6,500 KSEK. Previously, during 2024, 7,500 KSEK of the total loan amount of 20 MSEK had been repaid.

Full year 2025
Net sales and results
Net sales for the full year 2025 amounted to 0 (97) KSEK. Net sales in 2024 relate to test equipment.

Operating costs, including capitalized costs, for the full year amounted to 42,745 (42,734) KSEK. The product development phase was considered completed during the third quarter of 2024, and no further development costs have been capitalized since that time.

External and personnel costs decreased by a total of 7,671 KSEK compared with the same period in 2024, while depreciation of intangible assets increased by 7,338 KSEK compared with the same period in 2024. The decrease in personnel and external costs is primarily due to optimisation of the organisation for the commercial phase the Company is in, conversion to consultants, and cost-efficiency measures. The increase in depreciation is due to the Company’s first product, SCIZYS, being deemed completed in July 2024. The depreciation period is five years.

CEO’s statement
The fourth quarter of 2025 marked an important step in Lumito’s development, as we progressed towards a clear market introduction of SCIZYS. We are seeing growing market interest, increased awareness among relevant stakeholders, and a strengthened market presence. Over the past year, we have deepened our understanding of customers’ challenges and become more effective at articulating the tangible value our solution delivers, rather than merely demonstrating technical performance. This shift forms the foundation on which we continue to build – through a clearer offering, stronger positioning and increased focus on relevant use cases – laying the groundwork for long-term growth.

Market introduction with a clear user focus
Our market introduction efforts have begun to yield results. Through the development of our unique offering, the establishment of a Scientific Advisory Board, publication of white papers and targeted collaborations, SCIZYS has now been incorporated into the customer offerings of both Truly Labs and Concept Life Sciences. Feedback from these partners confirms that SCIZYS addresses real needs within preclinical research and drug development. At the same time, SCIZYS occupies a distinct niche in tissue analysis, where highly sensitive and quantitative methods are essential. This niche is expected to grow as increasingly effective and potent therapies are developed, as well as through future diagnostic applications.

Growing interest in SCIZYS
Interest in SCIZYS continues to increase, particularly in relation to the value it brings and the objectivity it supports in decision-making processes for researchers and drug developers. Collaborations with Truly Labs and Concept Life Sciences confirm that Lumito’s offering is perceived as both unique and commercially relevant, not least through the ability to detect very low biomarker levels with high precision. Making SCIZYS available through established CRO partners, including via “scanning-as-a-service” models, lowers adoption thresholds and enables broader market penetration. As is often the case for companies such as Lumito, commercial adoption within advanced applications is gradual. While we had hoped for a faster trajectory, we nonetheless see clear and growing interest forming the basis for accelerating commercialisation.

User-driven evidence strengthens our market position
Our work to demonstrate concrete applications and customer value from the user’s perspective continued to attract attention during the quarter. The white paper published in October shows how SCIZYS enables more accurate differentiation between HER2-low and HER2-negative tissue, which is highly relevant for research decisions and future clinical applications. These results also prompted Keith Miller to initiate the poster recently presented at The Pathological Society of Great Britain & Ireland Winter Meeting 2026.

In parallel, new application data from our collaboration with Truly Labs showed that SCIZYS significantly improves the detection of rare cells. Together, these findings reinforce the position of SCIZYS as a tool that addresses concrete and growing user needs. Application development and additional white papers will therefore remain a priority focus area in 2026, as user-driven evidence is central to further strengthening our market position.

Strategic partnership enhances the overall offering
During the quarter, we also took a strategic step by entering a letter of intent with Katana Labs GmbH. Together, we intend to commercialise a comprehensive immunohistochemistry workflow in which SCIZYS is combined with AI-driven image analysis. The partnership further strengthens our offering by simplifying and streamlining user workflows and addressing the growing need for more precise and scalable solutions in both research and drug development.

Financing for continued commercial expansion
To finance the next phase of development, a rights issue was carried out during the quarter, raising approximately 36 MSEK before issue costs. Together with the business development grant from Region Skåne, this provides the resources required to continue prioritising commercialisation, partnerships and market establishment in Europe.

Strengthened organisation for the commercial phase and quality assurance
We have further strengthened the organisation through the recruitment of Maria Falck as Chief Business Officer. Her experience in cancer research and CRO operations, combined with a focus on business development and partnerships, is a valuable addition as Lumito enters a more clearly defined commercial phase. At the same time, we are pleased that Anders Wallseth will continue to support the company in the role as Senior Commercial Advisor.

Finally, the renewal of our ISO 13485 certification confirms that our processes and systematic quality management meet international standards. This is a fundamental prerequisite for our long-term objective of bringing a clinically approved product to market.

Summary and outlook for 2026
In summary, the fourth quarter of 2025 was intensive and forward-looking, marked by several important steps towards our ambition to become an established player in ultrasensitive digital tissue analysis. Our focus on paying customers, strategic collaborations with leading researchers and key opinion leaders, and partnerships with central stakeholders in tissue analysis strengthen our position and drive continued development. With a clearer user focus, new partnerships and growing market traction, we enter 2026 with clear priorities and strengthened confidence.

About Lumito
Lumito specialises in medical technology and translational research in digital tissue imaging. Lumito offers a groundbreaking, highly sensitive imaging technique to locate and measure protein biomarkers in tissue samples using up-converting nanoparticles (UCNPs) through its patented research platform. The technology combines image data with precise biomarker detection, enabling images with higher contrast where irrelevant background information is filtered out. The technique can enhance the analysis of tissue samples by increasing objectivity, thereby contributing to research for more quantifiable diagnoses and optimised treatments. Lumito primarily focuses on drug development and digital pathology and is a spin-off from a research group at Lund University's Department of Atomic Physics and Laser Center. www.lumito.se/en/

The share is traded on NGM Nordic SME under the name LUMITO, and Mentor is Mangold Fondkommission.
