Directors' report including corporate governance report
General information on activities
Virtune AB (Publ) is a regulated Swedish crypto asset manager and issuer of exchange-traded products (ETPs) on regulated
European exchanges. The company has its registered office in Stockholm.
Turnover and profit for the financial year
The company's net sales for 2024 amounted to SEK 18,868 thousand (SEK 591 thousand), where the company's commercial
operations began in May 2023 with the listing of the company's first ETPs.
The company is closing the year with a total AUM of SEK 2,576 million (SEK 209 million) (the total assets under management
in all ETPs) and growth has mainly been generated during the last quarter of the year, of which growth is now expected to
accelerate further in 2025 due to intensified market efforts. The company has a total of 13 ETPs admitted to trading at the
beginning of 2025 and the total number of investors for the ETPs as of the end of December 2024 amounted to 101,747
(8,603).
The company operates in a market with strong underlying growth where the market has previously been primarily associated
with capital inflows from retail investors via online brokers and banks. With increased adoption of crypto assets as an asset
class and increased regulation of the market, we are experiencing growing interest from institutional investors seeking to
integrate crypto assets in their portfolios. As a result, the inflows of institutional capital to our products is expected to grow in
the coming years in line with the growing adoption of crypto assets as an asset class by the traditional financial market.
EBITDA for the last financial year amounted to SEK -9,808 million (SEK -13,081 million), although the company showed positive
EBITDA and net profit in the last quarter of the year. The company prioritizes continued growth and expansion of our product
portfolio and distribution verticals in both existing and new geographical markets over short-term results.
The company has shown exponential growth over the past year where investments in educational efforts towards the market,
adequate partners, regulatory compliance and a robust product structure have positioned Virtune as a leading digital asset
manager in the Nordic market.
Virtune's investments will also enable international expansion based on our Nordic operations, where we primarily need to
make market-related investments in the new markets we enter in the future. Thus, Virtune has laid the foundation commercially
and regulatory to be able to scale up the business on a broad front.
Financial instruments
The issuer is a company whose sole purpose is to issue exchange-traded products (ETPs) and to manage the underlying crypto assets
that serve as the collateral for the ETPs. Virtune ETPs track the price performance of the relevant underlying crypto assets (e.g. Bitcoin or
Ethereum) minus a management fee. The issuer does not engage in any other business activity and is not a licensed financial advisor.
The issuer's ETPs have no fixed maturity and no scheduled maturity date. The ETPs are not capital protected and are non-
interest bearing. The Issuer's ETPs shall always provide a 1:1 exposure to the performance of the underlying crypto assets
minus a management fee, and the price of each ETP is secured by the Issuer holding at least 100% of the corresponding
underlying crypto assets with the Issuer's custodian. The ETPs are also affected by the change in exchange rate between USD
and SEK or EUR.
Initial public offering of financial instruments
The issuer's 13 ETPs are Virtune Arbitrum ETP, Virtune Avalanche ETP, Virtune Bitcoin ETP, Virtune Chainlink ETP, Virtune
Crypto Altcoin Index ETP, Virtune Crypto Top 10 Index ETP SEK, Virtune Crypto Top 10 Index ETP EUR, Virtune Polygon
ETP, Virtune Staked Ethereum ETP, Virtune Staked Polkadot ETP, Virtune Staked Solana ETP, Virtune XRP ETP and Virtune
Staked Cardano ETP. All ETPs are governed by Swedish law and are listed for trading on Nasdaq Stockholm.
Parts of the Company's ETPs are cross-listed on Boerse Stuttgart, Euronext Amsterdam and Euronext Paris. The issuer's
home market for the products is Nasdaq Stockholm, from which the company cross-lists its ETPs to other relevant regulated
markets or multilateral trading facilities in Europe.
The issuer is regulated by the Act (2017:630) on Measures against Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing and the Act
(1996:1006) on Currency Exchange and Other Financial Activities. The Issuer has been registered as a financial institute
with the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority since November 22, 2022.
The issuer's base prospectus under which the ETPs are issued was renewed by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority on
April 5, 2024, and is valid for 12 months until the base prospectus needs to be renewed again. The Base Prospectus is
passported to all EU Member States and Norway, which allows the issuer to list its ETPs on regulated markets within EU and
Norway.

Financial position and liquidity
Cash flow from operating activities is negative and amounted to MSEK -21.2 (MSEK -13.3) and this is in line with expectations
where the company needed to invest in net cash generating initiatives to continue to build up our AUM. This will provide the
company with long term and recurring revenues and cash flows. The company's revenues generate crypto assets in the first
stage, which have the potential to reach long-term positive value development. As a result, cash flow is burdened by retained
crypto assets of MSEK 11.4, which from a cash flow perspective is capital tied up and not included in the company's cash and
cash equivalents. Investments made in expanding our investor base together with our platform have created a profitable
foundation where we can use these funds to grow in new distribution channels in existing as well as new geographic markets
with a focus on establishing the company as the leading crypto asset manager in the Nordic region.
Cash flow from investing activities amounted to MSEK 0 (MSEK -1.3), previous investments relate to the development and
building of Virtune's proprietary platform for reporting, review and control of our ETP ecosystem. The company has chosen
after the start of commercialization to include the further development of the company in its running costs rather than
continuing to capitalize these costs.
Cash flow from financing activities amounted to MSEK 17 (MSEK 20.8), which mainly relates to the proceeds from
the issues that took place in the spring of 2024 and the issue of exchanging convertible bonds for shares.
The total cash flow for the year is negative and amounted to MSEK - 4.2 (MSEK 6.2), where the company's increased capital
tied up in own crypto assets of 11.4 MSEK (in line with acquisition values) creates this negative cash flow. If these parts had
been considered as cash and cash equivalents, the company's cash flow for the year would have been positive.
As of December 31, 2024, Virtune has available cash of MSEK 3.6 (MSEK 7.9) and if the company's own crypto assets at a fair
value of MSEK 15.2 had been included in this, the company’s assets would be MSEK 18.8.
Personnel
At the end of the year, the company had 7 (4) employees.

Information on risks and uncertainties
The issuer is exposed to the risks inherent in our core business and, to a material extent, the following risks:
Risks related to crypto assets
The crypto assets to which the issuer's exchange-traded products provide exposure are publicly available, which means that
further innovation and changes may occur. These changes could potentially negatively impact on the issuer in the future.
Ability to manage growth
If the Company fails to manage future growth effectively, it could adversely affect the Company's operations, financial position
and performance. The Company's management works proactively by ensuring that effective processes are in place to
implement the Company's business plan.
Market risks
The risk of significant declines in the value of the exchange of traded products and therefore the assets under management
as a result of, among other things, changes in prevailing market parameters, in the volatility of such parameters and/or
correlations between them.
Virtune AB (Publ)
Org. no. 559175-2067
5
Liquidity risks
Liquidity risk is the risk that the company will not be able to meet its payments due to insufficient liquidity and/or difficulty in
obtaining credit from lenders. The company has a stable financial position based on the latest capital round in 2024. Future
growth will be financed from the company's equity. Based on currently available funds, management and the Board of
Directors believe that the liquidity needs for 2025 are secured.
Dependence on key people
Within the company there are a number of key people who are of great importance to the company's operations. The skills,
experience and commitment of the current staff of Virtune play a crucial role in the future development of the company. Should
one or more key personnel choose to leave the company, it could have a negative impact on the business. There is also a risk
that recruitment of new personnel to these positions may take time and entail increased costs for the company, which may
have negative consequences for the company's operations, financial position and results.
Supplier risk
The company's operations depend on a number of suppliers and the provision of deliveries on favorable terms. A termination
or deterioration of the terms of the Company's supplier agreements, or a delay in delivery, may - in the absence of alternative
suppliers - result in financial losses for the Company, which could adversely affect its operations, financial position and results.
Business risk
Risk arising from external circumstances or events that damage the Company's reputation or otherwise impair its financial
position. Developments in the crypto industry may be particularly relevant and may adversely affect the Company's reputation
and/or operating results.
Operational risk
This risk relates to potential losses that the Company may experience as a result of operational factors such as incorrect or
inadequate procedures, human error, system deficiencies and/or legal risks. If the governance or controls over the Company's
operational activities have been inadequate, this could have a negative impact on the Company's reputation and/or operating
results.
Economic developments
The Company's performance and financial position are partly dependent on factors beyond its control, including general
economic conditions, market conditions for investors and the existence of new competing products and services. There is a risk
that investors in the Company's exchange-traded products will reduce their demand for the Company's products as a result of
general economic and market conditions. This could result in a reduced earning capacity for the Company and thereby
adversely affect the Company's earnings and financial position.
Risks associated with the financial instruments
Significant risks associated with the company's financial instruments:
ETPs lack capital protection, the possibility of losing all or part of the amount invested.
The risk of an Extraordinary Event occurring.
Risks related to the secondary market.
Currency exposure risks.
Risks related to limitations on market makers' commitments
Factors that adversely affect the performance of the underlying crypto asset to which the financial instrument is linked.
Risks associated with the crypto assets to which the financial instruments are correlated
Risks related to the crypto assets serving as the underlying asset for the exchange-traded products
The market value, from time to time, of a given crypto asset will be affected by expectations regarding the future
use or other applications of such crypto assets, which may cause the crypto asset to be highly volatile.
Future regulations of a crypto asset may have a negative impact on the performance of such crypto assets and
therefore the exchange-traded product that provides exposure to such crypto asset.
The risk of fraud occurring, leading to the loss of all or some of the crypto assets in the relevant crypto wallets.

Corporate governance report
As the issuer's share capital is not listed, the Corporate Governance Code is not applicable to the issuer.
Statutes and general meeting
This is based, inter alia, on the issuer's articles of association (the "Articles of Association") and the Companies Act. Both of
these underpin the issuer's corporate governance framework.
Amending the company's articles of association is a matter to be dealt with by its shareholders from time to time. A qualified
majority of 2/3 of the shareholders' votes present at the general meeting is required to amend the issuer's articles of
association, but some specific amendments referred to in the Companies Act require unanimity.
The General Meeting of Shareholders is the only decision-making forum where the issuer's shareholders can exercise their
influence. The responsibilities of the general meeting are governed by the articles of association and the Companies Act and
include: electing the board of directors, appointing the auditor, approving the financial statements and discharging the board of
directors and the managing director from liability.
The General Assembly for the financial year 2024 will be held during 2025-05-21.

The Board of Directors
The board of directors of the issuer (the "Board") is responsible for developing the issuer's long-term strategies, policies, vision
and values. In 2024, the Board consisted of the following members:
- Erik Fischbeck, Chairman of the Board since 2024 Erik was born in 1972 and is a Danish citizen.
- Fredrik Djavidi, Board member since 2024. Fredrik was born in 1967 and is a Swedish citizen.

- Christopher Kock , Board member and CEO since 2022. Christopher was born in 1992 and is a Swedish citizen.
The provisions of the Companies Act and the Company's Articles of Association regarding the duties of the members of the
Board of Directors are complemented by certain working procedures adopted by the Board of Directors, which include
provisions on the division of work between the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer. The working procedures
stipulate that the Board of Directors should meet at least six times a year, which it did in 2024. All Board meetings for the
company were held in Stockholm and Sweden, as were the General Meetings in line with the company's regulations. The
company also has an Audit Committee, which is the only committee that has met, and the committee's charter stipulates that the
committee should meet at least twice a year, which it did in 2024.
Chief Executive Officer
Since 2022, the CEO of the company is Christopher Kock (1992). Christopher directly controls shares amounting to 9 percent
of the total number of shares and votes. Christopher has no significant assignments outside the company.
The CEO is accountable to the Board of Directors and shall manage and develop the company. The CEO is responsible for the
day-to-day management of the company's affairs and shall, within the framework of the Swedish Companies Act and the
business plan, budget and CEO instructions adopted by the Board of Directors, as well as other guidelines and instructions
issued by the Board of Directors, make the decisions required for the development of the business. The CEO shall take the
necessary measures to ensure that the company's accounts are kept in accordance with the law and that the administration is
carried out in a satisfactory manner.
The CEO and the Board of Directors of Virtune have prepared instructions regarding the CEO's duties and reporting
obligations. The instructions for the CEO are adopted annually at the board meeting immediately following each
annual general meeting.
Virtune AB (Publ)

Company management
The CEO has appointed a management team, which is also Virtune's senior management team. In 2024, the management
team consisted of the CEO, COO and CFO.
The management teams work very closely together, with almost daily contact, and the extended management work is
carried out at monthly management meetings. During the year, issues of both operational and strategic nature were
addressed on an ongoing basis.
Internal control and risk management over financial reporting
Under the Swedish Companies Act, the Board of Directors is responsible for internal control. The Board's
responsibility is also regulated in the Annual Accounts Act. The aim of internal control is to create a clear
responsibility structure and an efficient decision-making process.
The Board has established a number of fundamental documents relevant to financial reporting to ensure an effective control
environment. The Board's rules of procedure and instructions for the CEO also ensure a clear division of roles and
responsibilities, aimed at effective management of the risks of the business. The Board has also established a number of basic
guidelines and policies that are relevant to internal control. The basic policy documents are subject to ongoing review. In
addition, a well-functioning control environment requires an adequate organizational structure and continuous review of the
same. Virtune's management reports regularly to the Board based on established procedures.
Furthermore, the management is responsible for the system of internal controls required to manage significant risks in the day-
to-day operations. Managers at different levels within the company have defined authority and responsibility for internal control.
Auditor
Öhrlings PricewaterhouseCoopers AB is the company's auditor firm and Johan Engstam is the Auditor in Charge.

address c/o RKO AB Sybellegatan 47, 114 42 & Stockholm. All amounts are reported in thousands of SEK (TSEK)
unless otherwise stated. Figures in brackets refer to the previous year unless otherwise stated.
The Board of Directors approved the annual report for publication on March 28, 2025.
Note 2 Summary of significant accounting policies
Compliance with standards and legislation
The company has applied RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities and the Annual Accounts Act. The application of RFR
2 means that the company applies all IFRS standards and statements adopted by the EU in the annual report as far
as possible within the framework of the Annual Accounts Act, the Pension Obligations Vesting Act and with regard to
the relationship between accounting and taxation.
New IFRS standards not yet applied
No new or amended standards and policies approved by the IASB on or after January 1, 2024 are expected to have
a material impact on the company's financial statements.
Valuation principles applied in the preparation of the financial statements
Assets and liabilities are recognized at historical cost.
Significant accounting policies applied
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in the financial
statements, with the exceptions detailed below.
Classification etc.
Fixed assets primarily consist of amounts expected to be recovered or paid after more than twelve months from
the balance sheet date, while current assets mainly comprise amounts expected to be recovered or paid within
twelve months from the balance sheet date. Long-term liabilities primarily consist of amounts for which the
company, at the end of the reporting period, has an unconditional right to choose to defer payment beyond
twelve months after the end of the reporting period. If the company does not have such a right at the end of the
reporting periodor if the liability is held for trading or expected to be settled within the normal operating cycle
the liability amount is reported as a current liability.

Revenue
The company has two main revenue streams: Management fees and staking reward revenues.
Management fees
The Company earns revenue by issuing and listing ETPs with underlying crypto assets as collateral. Management fees
are calculated on each ETP at the applicable predetermined management fee rate and are accrued on a daily basis
over the period the ETP is outstanding at the market price of the underlying crypto asset. The management fee income
is first determined in the quantity of crypto assets, which is then translated into USD values using today's reference
price, which is then revalued to SEK using the transaction date rate. Based on the assets under management for each
ETP, the management fee is calculated daily as accrued income and the accrued income is extracted on a monthly
basis in the following month from the ETP's assets and transferred in the form of crypto assets to the company.
The management fees charged include all expenses related to the ETP, including trading fees, custody and
custody fees, etc.
Staking reward revenue
The Company participates in decentralized finance and blockchains that apply proof-of-stake as a consensus
mechanism by confirming and validating transactions, thereby contributing to the operations and security of the relevant
blockchain. Based on this work, the company receives rewards in the form of crypto assets. The company is rewarded
for its contribution to the network with crypto assets that constitute so-called staking rewards. Staking rewards are
received in crypto assets and these are revalued USD values using today's reference price, which is then revalued to
SEK using the transaction day rate. Revenue is generated when the staking rewards reach the company's asset account
and are distributed between the product and the issuer in accordance with the final terms of the respective ETP. Earned
staking rewards are made available to the company on a monthly basis in the transfer to the company's crypto asset
accounts and through extractions from the ETPs' underlying crypto assets.
Leased assets
All leases are accounted for as operating leases.
Operating leases
Lease payments under operating leases, including increased initial rentals but excluding charges for services such as
insurance and maintenance, are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Financial income and expenses
The company's financial income and expenses include:
interest income,
interest costs,
foreign exchange gains/losses on financial assets and financial liabilities, Interest income or interest expense is recognized using the
effective interest method.
Taxes
Income taxes consist of current tax and deferred tax. Income taxes are recognized in profit or loss except when the
underlying transaction is recognized in other comprehensive income or in equity, in which case the related tax effect
is recognized in other comprehensive income or in equity.
Current tax is the tax payable or receivable in respect of the current year, using tax rates enacted or substantively
enacted at the balance sheet date. Current tax also includes adjustments to current tax relating to previous periods.

Org. no. 559175-2067
14
Financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are accounted for using the historical cost convention.
Accounting policies for current liabilities financial instruments
The Company's ETPs are physically backed, which means that the value of the instruments always corresponds to at
least a 1:1 ratio to the underlying crypto assets. The Company's outstanding instruments are valued as a current
liability and in line with the valuation of these crypto assets at the balance sheet date. The liabilities amount to the total
number of ETPs the issuer has outstanding and the cost of its underlying crypto assets. If the company receives a
creation or redemption order from authorized participants in the program, the liability side increases or decreases by
the same amount as the underlying crypto assets increase or decrease. A creation or redemption order can be
executed by the authorized participant sending over the corresponding value of the ETPs in the underlying crypto
assets or via cash transfer where the issuer procures or sells the relevant amount of underlying crypto assets. The risk
that the value of the crypto assets serving as the underlying collateral for the ETPs falls below their acquisition cost is
borne by the investors in the company's ETPs. Any realized gains or losses from the sale of these instruments accrue
to the investors of the ETP. The company reports realized gains and losses on a gross basis in its income statement,
under financial items, in relation to the sold crypto assets and ETPs. However, the effect of these gains or losses is
neutralized, as the asset and liability values related to ETP development are correlated.
Recognition and derecognition
A financial asset or financial liability is recognized in the balance sheet when the entity becomes a party to the
contractual provisions of the instrument. A financial asset is derecognized when the contractual right
to the cash flows from the asset has ceased or has been settled. The same applies when the risks and rewards
of ownership are substantially transferred to another party and the entity no longer has control over the
financial asset. A financial liability is derecognized when the contractual obligation is discharged or cancelled.
Valuation of financial assets
Financial assets are initially measured at cost, including any transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition
of the asset. Subsequent to initial recognition, current financial assets are measured at the lower of cost and net
realizable value at the balance sheet date.
Trade and other receivables that are current assets are valued individually at the amount expected to be received.
After initial recognition, financial fixed assets are measured at cost less any impairment losses and plus any
revaluations.
Interest-bearing financial assets are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
For the purposes of valuation at the lower of cost or market and impairment testing, the Company's financial
instruments held for risk diversification are considered to be part of a portfolio of securities and are therefore
measured as one item.
Valuation of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost. Expenditure directly attributable to the raising of a loan
adjusts the cost of the loan and is accrued using the effective interest method.
Intangible fixed assets
Intangible assets comprise development costs and patents and are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and
any impairment losses. Research expenditure is expensed immediately, while expenditure on development projects is
capitalized as intangible assets to the extent that it meets the criteria for capitalization in the balance sheet.
Expenditure that does not meet such criteria is expensed as incurred. The amount capitalized during the year is
transferred between unrestricted and restricted capital and is designated as the development expenditure fund. The
criteria to be met are as follows:
* It is technically possible to complete the asset so that it can be used or sold.
* The entity intends to complete the asset and to use or sell it
* The entity has the ability to use or sell the asset.
* It is probable that the asset will generate future economic benefits.
* There are sufficient resources to complete the asset and to use or sell it.
* The development expenditure can be reliably measured.
Depreciation is mainly on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life. The following amortization period
applies to the Company's intangible assets:
Number of years
Capitalized expenditure for development work 5 years
Virtune AB (Publ)
Org. no. 559175-2067
15
Removal from the balance sheet:
Intangible fixed assets are removed when the asset is retired or disposed of. When intangible assets are disposed of, the
capital gain or loss is determined as the difference between the sale price and/or when no future benefits are expected
from the use of the asset, the asset is scrapped or disposed of at its carrying amount and recognized in the income
statement.
The assessment of the need for impairment of intangible and tangible fixed assets is made on each balance sheet date to
determine whether there are any indications that the value of an asset is lower than its carrying amount. If there is such an
indication, the asset's recoverable amount is calculated. If the recoverable amount is less than the carrying amount, an
impairment loss is recognized as an expense. An internally generated intangible asset that is not yet available for use or
sale at the balance sheet date is always tested for impairment. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating
unit is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.
Tangible fixed assets
Assets owned
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses.
Cost includes the purchase price and expenditure directly attributable to the asset to bring it to the location and
condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended. The accounting policy for
impairment losses is set out below.
The carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized on disposal or retirement or when
no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal/disposal. The gain or loss arising on the disposal
or retirement of an asset is the difference between the sale price and the carrying amount of the asset minus direct
selling costs. Gains and losses are recognized as other operating income/expenses.
Depreciation principles
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset.
Estimated useful lives:
- Machinery, equipment and installations 5 years
Impairment of fixed assets
If there is an indication of impairment, the asset's recoverable amount is calculated (see below).
If it is not possible to determine substantially independent cash flows for an individual asset, and its fair value minus
costs to sell cannot be used, the assets are grouped for impairment testing at the lowest level at which substantially
independent cash flows can be identified - a so-called cash-generating unit.
An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit (group of units)
exceeds its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized as an expense in profit or loss.
When an impairment loss is identified for a cash-generating unit (group of units), the amount of the
impairment loss is allocated on a pro rata basis to the assets included in the unit (group of units).
The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value minus costs to sell and value in use. In calculating value in
use, future cash flows are discounted using a discount rate that reflects the risk-free interest rate and the risk
associated with the specific asset.
Reversal of impairment
An impairment loss is reversed if there is both an indication that the impairment loss no longer exists and there
has been a change in the assumptions used to calculate the recoverable amount.
A reversal is made only to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset after reversal does not exceed the
carrying amount that would have been recognized, minus depreciation where applicable, if no impairment loss
had been recognized.

Org. no. 559175-2067

Accounting policies for digital assets in relation to the company's ETPs
The Company is an issuer of exchange-traded products (ETPs) that are 100% physically backed by one or several
crypto assets. The crypto assets are valued by the Company as an Inventory Asset and the asset is recognized at the
lower of cost or market. The lowest value principle shall be the lower of either market value or cost. The cost is
calculated using the current reference value of the underlying crypto assets transferred in the context of a creation order.
The direct costs and acquisition values are set in USD values via today's reference price which is revalued to SEK using
the transaction date exchange rate. The liabilities are linked to the holders of the issued ETPs and are valued as a
current liability in line with the valuation of the crypto assets at the balance sheet date. The risk that the value of the
crypto assets serving as the underlying for the ETPs falls below their cost lies with the investor in the Company's ETPs
and any capital gains or losses on sales of the crypto assets accrue to the investors in the ETPs. The Company
recognizes realized gains and losses through gross accounting in the Company's income statement and under financial
items in relation to crypto assets and ETPs sold, however, the effect neutralizes these gains or losses as the asset and
liability side value of the ETP development is correlated.
The Company, at the start of each new month, withdraws the previous month's accrued management and staking
reward income which is transferred to Virtune's own crypto assets in their segregated custody wallets.
Accounting policies for Virtune's own digital assets
At each new month, the Company charges the previous month's accrued management fees and the issuer's share of
staking rewards in the underlying crypto asset in relation to the Company's ETPs. Thus, the Company manages its
own crypto assets and these crypto assets are valued by the Company as an Inventory Asset and the asset is
recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The acquisition value is calculated using the reference value in
USD at the date of withdrawal and then in SEK using the current transaction rate.
The net realizable value is the market value of the asset. The company thus takes into account the risk of
obsolescence and, in the event of obsolescence, the company's direct costs are charged with a write-down of the
company's assets. When the company's own crypto assets are converted into fiat currency, the company realizes a
gain or loss that is recognized in the company's other income or direct costs in the company's income statement.
Short-term remuneration:
Short-term employee benefits in the form of salaries, bonuses and paid annual leave are employee benefits that fall
due within 12 months of the balance sheet date in the year in which the employee earned the benefit. Short-term
employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount that the entity expects to pay as a result of the unused
entitlement.
Defined contribution pension plans
Defined contribution plans are those plans where the company's obligation is limited to the contributions it has
undertaken to pay. In such cases, the amount of the employee's pension depends on the contributions paid by the
enterprise to the plan or to an insurance company and the return on investment generated by the contributions.
Consequently, it is the employee who bears the actuarial risk (that the benefit will be lower than expected)
and investment risk (that the invested assets will be insufficient to provide the expected benefits). The company's
obligations in respect of contributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as an expense in profit or loss as
they are earned by employees in respect of services rendered to the company during a period.
All pension plans in the company are defined contribution plans.
Compensation in the event of dismissal:
Termination benefits are provided when a company decides to terminate an employment before the normal
termination date of the employment or when an employee accepts an offer for voluntary severance in exchange for
such benefits. If the compensation does not provide the company with any future economic benefit, a liability and an
expense are recognized when the company has a legal or informal obligation to provide such compensation. The
compensation is valued at the best estimate of the amount that would be required to settle the obligation at the
balance sheet date.
Cash flow statement
The cash flow statement is prepared using the indirect method. The reported cash flow only includes transactions that
have resulted in cash receipts or payments. In addition to cash and cash equivalents, the company classifies as cash
and cash equivalents available balances with banks and other credit institutions and short-term liquid investments that
are listed on a marketplace and have a maturity of less than three months from the date of acquisition. Restricted cash is
not classified as cash and cash equivalents.
Contingent liabilities (contingencies)
Contingent liabilities are disclosed when there is a possible obligation that arises from past events and whose
existence will be confirmed only by one or more uncertain future events beyond the control of the entity or
when there is an obligation that is not recognized as a liability or provision because it is not probable that an
outflow of resources will be required or cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.

Earnings per share
Earnings per share
The company carried out two share issues in 2024 where the company carried out a directed
issue of 1,109,000 shares in February and the conversion of a convertible loan into shares
in December of 367,660 shares. In addition to this, the company also carried out a 100:1
split and this was decided at the AGM. The company has the following open warrant
programs and in these the following applies:
1. The estimated fair value on the grant date for warrants granted in 2022 was SEK 0.12
per warrant. A total of 400,000 warrants were issued and allotted, of which one
warrant entitled to one share. 50,000 warrants have been bought back during 2023.
The fair value at the grant date is calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation
model. The model has calculated the option price at SEK 0.12 per option according
to the following parameters:
A) Strike price: 14 kr.
B) Valuation date: November 24, 2022.
C) Subscription period: Subscription of shares may take place for the holder’s
warrants from January 1, 2026, until January 31, 2026.
C) Expected volatility of the company's share price: 35%.
D) Expected dividend yield: 0%.
E) Risk-free rate: 2.26%.
The expected volatility of the share price is based on comparable listed companies as
Virtune's share is not listed.
2. The estimated fair value on the grant date for warrants granted in 2024 was SEK 1.13 per
warrant. A total of 316,000 warrants were issued and granted, of which one warrant entitled
to one share. The fair value on the grant date is calculated using the Black-Scholes
valuation model. The model has calculated the option price at SEK 1.13 per option
according to the following parameters:
F) Strike price: 87.30 kr.
G) Valuation date: May 17, 2024.
H) Subscription period: Subscription of shares may take place for the holder's warrants
I) Expected volatility of the company's share price: 35%.
J) Expected dividend yield: 0%.

Note 20 Financial risks and risk management
Financial risk factors
Through its activities, the Company is exposed to various financial risks such as market risk (currency
risk and interest rate risk), credit risk, cash flow and liquidity risk. The Company's overall approach
focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on
its financial performance.
Risk management is handled centrally by the company's management, with the CEO being responsible.
The CEO approves the risk management measures that are implemented. During the year, the
company established a risk management procedure and structured its work on risk management.
Credit risk
Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments, and balances with banks
and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to customers, including outstanding receivables and
contracted transactions. The use of credit limits is monitored regularly and management does not expect
any losses due to non-payment by counterparties. For each new customer, the credit risk is analyzed
before standard terms of payment and delivery are offered.
Cash flow and liquidity risks
The Company's management closely monitors rolling forecasts of the Company's liquidity reserve to ensure
that the Company has sufficient cash to meet the needs of its ongoing operations.

Auditor's report
To the general meeting of the shareholders of Virtune AB (Publ), corporate identity number 559175-2067
Report on the annual accounts
Opinions
We have audited the annual accounts of Virtune AB (Publ) (publ) for the year 2024 except for the corporate
governance statement on pages 6-7.
In our opinion, the annual accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Virtune AB (Publ)s as of 31 December 2024
and its financial performance and cash flow for the year then ended in accordance with the Annual Accounts
Act. Our opinions do not cover the corporate governance statement on pages 6-7. The statutory administration
report is consistent with the other parts of the annual accounts.
We therefore recommend that the general meeting of shareholders adopts the income statement and balance
sheet for the Virtune AB (Publ).
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA) and generally accepted
auditing standards in Sweden. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s
Responsibilities section. We are independent of the Virtune AB (Publ) in accordance with professional ethics for
accountants in Sweden and have otherwise fulfilled our ethical responsibilities in accordance with these
requirements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinions.
Responsibilities of the Board of Directors and the Managing Director
The Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the preparation of the annual accounts
and that they give a fair presentation in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act. The Board of Directors and
the Managing Director are also responsible for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable
the preparation of annual accounts that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the annual accounts, the Board of Directors and the Managing Director are responsible for the
assessment of the company's ability to continue as a going concern. It disclose, as applicable, matters related
to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting. The going concern basis of accounting is
however not applied if the Board of Directors and the Managing Director intends to liquidate the company,
cease operations or has no realistic alternative to doing any of this.
Auditor's responsibility
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the annual accounts as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with ISAs and generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if,
individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of
users taken on the basis of these annual accounts.
A further description of our responsibility for the audit of the annual accounts is available on
Revisorsinspektionen’s website: www.revisorsinspektionen.se/revisornsansvar. This description is part of the
auditor's report.
Report on other legal and regulatory requirements
Opinions
In addition to our audit of the annual accounts, we have also audited the administration of the Board of
Directors and the Managing Director of Virtune AB (Publ) for year 2024 and the proposed appropriations of the
company’s profit or loss.
We recommend to the general meeting of shareholders that the profit be appropriated in accordance with the
proposal in the statutory administration report and that the members of the Board of Directors and the
1 of 3
Managing Director be discharged from liability for the financial year.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted the audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. Our
responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities section. We are
independent of the Virtune AB (Publ) in accordance with professional ethics for accountants in Sweden and
have otherwise fulfilled our ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinions.
Responsibilities of the Board of Directors and the Managing Director
The Board of Directors is responsible for the proposal for appropriations of the company’s profit or loss. At the
proposal of a dividend, this includes an assessment of whether the dividend is justifiable considering the
requirements which the company's type of operations, size and risks place on the size of the company's equity,
consolidation requirements, liquidity and position in general.
The Board of Directors is responsible for the company’s organization and the management of the company’s
affairs. This includes among other things continuous assessment of the company's financial situation and
ensuring that the company's organization is designed so that the accounting, management of assets and the
company’s financial affairs otherwise are controlled in a reassuring manner. The Managing Director shall
manage the ongoing administration according to the Board of Directors’ guidelines and instructions and among
other matters take measures that are necessary to fulfill the company’s accounting in accordance with law and
handle the management of assets in a reassuring manner.
Auditor's responsibility
Our objective concerning the audit of the administration, and thereby our opinion about discharge from liability,
is to obtain audit evidence to assess with a reasonable degree of assurance whether any member of the Board
of Directors or the Managing Director in any material respect:
has undertaken any action or been guilty of any omission which can give rise to liability to the company,
or
in any other way has acted in contravention of the Companies Act, the Annual Accounts Act or the
Articles of Association.
Our objective concerning the audit of the proposed appropriations of the company’s profit or loss, and thereby
our opinion about this, is to assess with reasonable degree of assurance whether the proposal is in accordance
with the Companies Act.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden will always detect actions or omissions that
can give rise to liability to the company, or that the proposed appropriations of the company’s profit or loss are
not in accordance with the Companies Act.
A further description of our responsibility for the audit of the administration is available on
Revisorsinspektionen's website: www.revisorsinspektionen.se/revisornsansvar. This description is part of the
auditor's report.
The auditor's examination of the corporate governance statement
It is the Board of Directors who is responsible for that the corporate governance statement on pages 6-7 has
been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.
Our examination of the corporate governance statement is conducted in accordance with FAR’s auditing
standard RevR 16 The auditor’s examination of the corporate governance statement. This means that our
examination of the corporate governance statement is different and substantially less in scope than an audit
conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and generally accepted auditing standards in
Sweden. We believe that the examination has provided us with sufficient basis for our opinions.
A corporate governance statement has been prepared. Disclosures in accordance with chapter 6 section 6 the
second paragraph points 2-6 of the Annual Accounts Act and chapter 7 section 31 the second paragraph the
same law are consistent with the other parts of the annual accounts and consolidated accounts and are in
accordance with the Annual Accounts Act.
