On 29 June 2026, Ambea AB ( publ ), registration number 556468-4354 (“Ambea”), announced on a recommended public offer to the shareholders of Humana AB, registration number 556760-8475 (“Humana”) to tender all their shares in Humana to Ambea, aiming to combine the companies (the “Offer”).

Ambea has received approvals from the competition authorities in Sweden, Norway and Finland regarding Ambea’s acquisition of Humana. The competition authorities have in each case concluded its review without further action. Furthermore, the Swedish Inspectorate of Strategic Products has decided to take no action with respect to Ambea’s notification under the Swedish Screening of Foreign Direct Investments Act regarding the acquisition of Humana. Ambea has thereby received all necessary approvals from authorities for the Offer and acquisition of Humana. As a result, completion of the Offer is no longer conditional upon receipt of all necessary regulatory, governmental or similar clearances, approvals, decisions and other actions from authorities or similar, including from competition authorities. All other conditions for completion of the Offer remain applicable as set forth in the offer document made public on 24 August 2026.

The acceptance period in the Offer commenced on 25 August 2026 and expires on 30 September 2026 at 15:00 CEST. Provided that Ambea has prior thereto announced that the conditions for the Offer have been satisfied, or has otherwise resolved to complete the Offer, settlement is expected to commence on or around 8 October 2026. Ambea reserves the right to extend or shorten the acceptance period, one or several times, and to postpone the settlement date.

Important notice to shareholders in the United States of America

This Offer is made for the securities of a foreign company. The Offer is subject to the disclosure requirements of Sweden, which are different from those of the United States. Humana’s financial statements and all financial information included herein, or any other documents relating to the Offer, have been or will be prepared in accordance with IFRS and may not be comparable to the financial statements or financial information of companies in the United States or other companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. It may be difficult for holders of the shares of Humana domiciled or resident in the United States (the “U.S. Holders”) to enforce their rights and any claims they may have arising under the U.S. federal or state securities laws in connection with the Offer, since Humana is located in another country other than the United States, and some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of countries other than the United States. U.S. Holders may not be able to sue Humana or Ambea or their respective officers or directors in a non-U.S. court for violations of U.S. securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel Humana or Ambea and/or their respective affiliates to subject themselves to the jurisdiction or judgment of a U.S. court.

The Offer is made to U.S. Holders on the same terms and conditions as those made to all other shareholders of Humana to whom the Offer is being made, in reliance on the “Tier I” exemption under Rule 14d-1(c) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), from the U.S. tender offer rules. Any information documents, including the offer document, are being disseminated to U.S. Holders on a basis comparable to the method pursuant to which such documents are provided to Humana’s other shareholders. U.S. Holders should note that Humana is not listed on a United States securities exchange, is not subject to the periodic requirements of the Exchange Act and is not required to, and does not, file any reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The new shares in Ambea that may be issued as Share Consideration and the CVR Instruments that may be issued as part of the Consideration in connection with the Offer are not being, and will not be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or under the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States. Such securities are being offered in the United States pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 802 under the Securities Act.

The offer materials are being furnished to the SEC under cover of Form CB. Ambea has filed a Form F-X with the SEC appointing an agent for service of process in the United States in connection with the Offer.

The Offer described in this press release is made for the issued and outstanding shares of Humana, a company incorporated under Swedish law, and is subject to Swedish disclosure and procedural requirements, which may be different from those of the United States. The Tier I exemption exempts the Offer from most provisions of Regulation 14D and Rules 14e-1 and 14e-2 under the Exchange Act. Accordingly, the Offer is being conducted primarily in accordance with Swedish law, the Takeover Rules and the Swedish Securities Council’s rulings regarding interpretation and application of the Takeover Rules, with respect to withdrawal rights, the Offer timetable, notices of extensions, announcements of results, settlement procedures (including as regards to the time when payment of the consideration is rendered) and waivers of conditions, which may be different from requirements or customary practices in relation to U.S. domestic tender offers. U.S. Holders are encouraged to consult with their own advisors regarding the Offer.

The U.S. Holders should consider that the price for the Offer is being paid in SEK and that no adjustment will be made based on any changes in the exchange rate.

To the extent permissible under applicable law or regulations, Ambea and its affiliates or its brokers and its brokers’ affiliates (acting as agents for Ambea or its affiliates, as applicable) may from time to time and during the pendency of the Offer, and other than pursuant to the Offer, directly or indirectly purchase or arrange to purchase shares of Humana outside the United States (or any securities that are convertible into, exchangeable for or exercisable for such shares). These purchases may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices. In addition, affiliates to the financial advisors to Ambea may also engage in ordinary course trading activities in securities of Humana, which may include purchases or arrangements to purchase such securities as long as such purchases or arrangements are in compliance with applicable law and regulation. Any information about such purchases will be announced as and to the extent required under applicable Swedish law, rules or regulations.

The receipt of the Consideration (including the Cash Consideration, the Share Consideration and the CVR Instrument) pursuant to the Offer by a U.S. Holder may be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes and under applicable U.S. state and local, as well as foreign and other, tax laws. Each shareholder is urged to consult an independent professional advisor regarding the tax consequences of accepting the Offer. Neither Ambea nor any of its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees or agents or any other person acting on their behalf in connection with the Offer shall be responsible for any tax effects or liabilities resulting from acceptance of this Offer.

NEITHER THE SEC NOR ANY U.S. STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THE OFFER, PASSED ANY COMMENTS UPON THE MERITS OR FAIRNESS OF THE OFFER, PASSED ANY COMMENT UPON THE ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THIS PRESS RELEASE OR PASSED ANY COMMENT ON WHETHER THE CONTENT IN THIS PRESS RELEASE IS CORRECT OR COMPLETE. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENCE IN THE UNITED STATES.

DNB Carnegie Investment Bank AB (“DNB Carnegie”) is financial advisor to Ambea and no one else in connection with the Offer. DNB Carnegie is not responsible to anyone other than Ambea for providing protections afforded to clients of DNB Carnegie nor for providing advice in relation to the Offer.
