CEO STATEMENT: THE PIECES ARE STARTING TO FALL INTO PLACE

We continue to take great strides towards our vision to become the globally dominated sharing platform for user-created computer games.

Two of our business models are now in place. The advertising model has been expanded from still image advertising only to better paid video advertising. We have introduced a platform currency (Adventure BUX) and opportunities for users to buy and sell game components.

The rapid development during the summer has been made possible by the basic platform improvements we made during the winter and spring. We can now faster build new user interfaces for both PC/Mac and mobile devices (mobiles and tablets). Our users can now create and share not only computer games but also the components with which computer games are created.

We have started to introduce a more social user interface where users can invite friends and see when their friends play games or publish games or game content. When our users invite their friends to interact with them on Adventure Box, they make our growth organic and exponentially viral.

Today, we manually share revenue with a select few users. In the future, we will automate the process of sharing revenue with our users. Revenue sharing takes place within our Adventure Box Pro program (pro.adventurebox.com).

We have also started the prototype development of Adventure Box Academy where new game developers can learn how to make really good games and how to make money by creating games and game components (academy.adventurebox.com). Successful and licensed Adventure Box game developers describe how they create their games and are available as paid mentors to new game creators.

The changed marketing strategy and the improved product result in more users registering accounts and becoming returning users.

We continue to work on improving the opportunities for our users to create, interact and have fun and we continue to improve our business models. The goal is rapid viral exponential growth and over time increasing revenue.

A FOCUSED MARKET STRATEGY

Since the autumn of 2019, the number of Adventure Box visitors has increased by over 5000%, from 36,196 visitors in August 2019 to 2,112,754 in May 2020. We have learned how to reach different types of users and achieved customer acquisition costs more than 100 times lower than those for mobile app installations. As we now move towards the revenue generation phase, we have shifted our focus to users who are expected to generate higher revenue. We are now opting out of those visitors who are not expected to generate revenue. By shifting focus to high-value users, returning users and users who publish content, we lay the foundation for viral growth. It is only through virality that we reach the goal of becoming the dominant social platform for gaming.

ADVERTISING REVENUES

During June and July, we started experimenting with the video advertising model. We now show fewer still image advertising messages. In the future, we will scale up the amount of video advertising that is shown.

Early test results from the video advertising model show high revenue per ad impression ($ 18 per thousand ad impressions in the US compared to, say, $ 6-8 as is normal for YouTube).

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The company's revenues are still modest, the costs mainly relate to salaries, product development, operations and marketing.

In July, ALMI granted the company a loan of SEK 3 million. This loan has not yet been repaid. Liquidity as of June 30 is SEK 9.9 million, the loan of SEK 3 million from ALMI not included.

Until 1 October 2020, options can be exercised for 110,110 shares at SEK 20 for a total of SEK 2,202,200.

The company assesses that there is great global commercial potential but cannot with certainty predict revenue levels. If revenues do not develop in accordance with the Company's assessments, the Company needs to consider measures including additional capital raising. The company may also decide that additional expansion capital is needed. As there is a great deal of interest in investing in the Company, the Company considers the opportunities to be good to obtain additional financing. The Board has a mandate from the Annual General Meeting to issue shares and / or convertibles and / or warrants in order to be able to handle the financing issue.

COVID-19 RELATED ACTIONS

We closely monitor the spread of COVID-19 around the world. We have taken proactive measures to reduce the risks for our employees and ensure that our operations continue to function smoothly. These measures include working from home and stopping all business trips. As we are an online company with employees in five countries, virtual meetings are already an established working method. The costs of customer acquisition have since Corona decreased. We cannot conclude that this is due to the spread of COVID-19, but it may be that more people choose to play and create their own games when their daily routine changes drastically.
