Executive summary

  • Net loss for Q2 2026 was SEK -451.0 million, a significant increase from SEK -73.3 million in Q2 2025, mainly due to large downward revaluations of key portfolio holdings.

  • Major strategic shift: acquisition of Rosetta's shares in KDev Investments, eliminating a complex structure and potential dividend obligations, improving transparency and direct exposure to portfolio value.

  • Portfolio companies advanced clinical programs, with several approaching key milestones in 2026–2027.

Financial highlights

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
