In connection with the ongoing subscription period in the Rights Issue, Cell Impact's CEO, Daniel Vallin, has conducted a CEO interview with Mangold Insight, which has been published and is available on the Company's and Mangold Insight's respective websites (https://investor.cellimpact.com/en/investor-relations/issues/rights-issue-2026-2 and https://mangold.se/mangold-insight/bolag/cell-impact/).

In an interview with Mangold Insight, Cell Impact's CEO Daniel Vallin describes the Company’s patented technology Cell Impact Forming™ and its competitive advantages in the manufacture of flow plates for fuel cells and electrolysers. According to Vallin, the technology already enables a cost level that is about 50 percent lower than that of competing manufacturers, while forming in a single stroke provides quality benefits.

Cell Impact has broadened its customer base to customers on three continents and works on projects in areas such as automotive, aviation, marine and stationary energy solutions. The projects normally have a lead time of three to five years, and according to Vallin, the Company has so far made progress in all start-up projects. A few projects are now approaching the transition from prototype to series production, which is expected to generate recurring revenue.

Vallin emphasises the breadth of customers, applications and business models as important for the Company’s continued development. According to Vallin, the most important factor in achieving the Company’s goals is that the projects continue to develop towards validation and series production.
