6 LUMI GRUPPEN quarterly report Q2 22 Interim Report — Lumi Gruppen During the intake cycle for the school year 2022/2023 the decline in students that have signed up for private candidate courses at Sonans has accelerated and as of week 31 total sales are approximately 30 per cent behind last year’s student intake. For Oslo Nye Høyskole, the total number of signed contracts is slightly behind last year as of week 31, but bachelor and master’s contracts are up by a strong 9 per cent. 2500500075000 Total Operating Expenses NOKm Number of active students Students — Campus vs. Online (2022)Operating Revenue NOKm 4196 6711 5452online5346 campus 50% online 50% campusQ222 Q221 10 798 students Adjusted EBIT %Adjusted EBIT NOKm 150225300750 267.0 134.4 Q2 22 21 22 21 YTD 134.1 267.4 100150200500 179.4 81.2 Q2 22 21 22 21 YTD 73.5 164.4 1007550250 59.1 38.5 Q2 22 21 22 21 YTD 47.6 77.2 102030400 22.2 28.6 Q2 22 21 22 21 YTD 35.5 28.9

The current market development for Sonans is mainly a consequence of fewer students without a place of admission in higher education. The total number of applicants to higher education in Norway fell by 12.6 1 per cent for the student intake autumn 2022, resulting in applicants without a study programme offer are down almost 43 per cent versus 2021. Further, 49 per cent of the students have received an offer corresponding to their first choice compared to 40 per cent in 2021. The higher education market has been stable for many years with a CAGR of 3 per cent from 2013 to 2019 prior to Covid19 and 4 per cent when including 2020 and 2021. The significant drop in applicants to higher education is to some extent unexpectedly high and has resulted in more challenging market conditions for Sonans. Lumi Gruppen already announced a weaker development in the student intake for 2022/2023 in the Q1 report and was prepared for a slower market compared to last year. However, the accelerated decline in the student intake from 20 July was surprisingly high. Market indicators Lumi Gruppen follow would rather suggest a decline in the range of 10-20 per cent. In addition to the development in the higher education market, cancelled high school exams three years in a row have also contributed to the market decline together with a strong labour market. These significant market changes temporarily affect the market for private candidate courses. Lumi Gruppen believes that the key drivers explaining the market development could be described as post-Covid effects and are therefore expected to be more short-term in nature. Based on the recent development it is difficult to make precise projections for the coming years, but the fundamentals for the education market seem to be unchanged and hence it is likely there will be a market recovery as soon as next year.

Operational Review

The Group will now execute on additional efficiency measures aiming to significantly mitigate the effect of the decline in sales and they are expected to show an impact starting in Q3 2022. This will include all parts of Lumi Gruppen, but a significant part of the measures will have a direct impact on the Sonans cost base.

Lumi Gruppen has already implemented several revenue and cost measures in Sonans to improve margins and reduce the cost base in response to the changes in market conditions. In February 2022, Lumi Gruppen announced, among other, price increases for online courses and annual cost savings totalling NOK 26 million.

7 LUMI GRUPPEN quarterly report Q2 22

The decline in sales for the school year 2022/2023 at Sonans is mainly affecting campus with a 43 per cent decline compared to last year as of week 31. Online sales combined with the new offering “Live” show a double-digit growth of 14 per cent in the same period. The student intake for this school year will be completed by 15 September 2022.

Measures for Sonans will include, among others, rightsizing of the organisation, improved classroom efficiency, reduced administrative costs including group functions and improved marketing efficiency. Total new annual cost savings add up to around NOK 35-39 million in addition to the already announced cost measures of NOK 26 million. The target is to reduce the cost base for Sonans for the school year 2022/2023 with approximately NOK 60-65 million. This amount does not include savings from closing additional campuses. The campus structure will be reviewed and given the continued online shift it is likely that additional campuses will be closed as early as the next school year.

Unlike public universities, ONH has an important sales period during the summer, especially after the 20th of July. Students not admitted to public universities will look for other alternatives, and ONH has a strong portfolio including psychology and business administration which is attractive for many students. The ONH intake is therefore not concluded before the middle of September. However, the proportion of students without an admission place in public universities is, as mentioned earlier, 43 per cent lower than last year. Consequently, the market trends that have affected the intake for Sonans, will also affect ONH and could potentially reduce the demand for the ONH programmes in the remaining sales period.

In addition to reducing costs as a response to the shift in market conditions, Sonans has implemented several strategic initiatives to compensate for the declining campus revenue. During the first half of 2022, Sonans introduced a new digital campus product named Live. Live will utilise existing teaching capacity at the physical campus and the courses will be structured in line with existing campus courses. Facilitating interactions between teachers and students will be crucial for structuring the new student offering. Live has been well received in the market and is the main reason why Sonans so far in the student intake has double digit sales growth on the online platform. Live is expanding student reach and is over time more scalable and efficient than the campus model. Sonans will also be the leading private candidate school in Norway with a full-scale learning concept where the students can choose between physical campus, online learning, or digital campus. To better reflect the value of Sonans’ various student offerings, an adjustment of the online commercial terms was successfully implemented in the first half of 2022. Prices on online courses have been increased by on average 10 per cent and prices for Live are on par with campus courses, increasing revenue contribution from onlineInfurther.amarket with a 12.6 per cent drop in the number of applicants for higher education in Norway 2, Oslo Nye Høyskole (ONH) continues to perform better than the market for the school year 2022/2023. The growth in applicants to ONH has led to a 6 per cent increase in the number of signed contracts for bachelor students and 9 percent increase when including the master’s programme. The primary driver behind this development has been the launch of new programmes well adapted to students’ focus and needs.Bycontinuing to increase multi-year bachelor programmes’ share of revenue, revenue visibility will increase in the business model and reduce operational risk for ONH. The key priority is still to increase the number of students for the new programmes, but new annual programmes will also be launched. These programmes will be derived from multi-year bachelor programmes. In addition, new bachelor programmes will be developed in the coming years. As of week 31, the total number of signed contracts at ONH for the school year 2022/2023 are 6 per cent behind last year. However, despite the decline in signed contracts, revenue will continue to grow in the second half of 2022 due to the rollover effect from an additional bachelor cohort together with a higher share of new sales on multiyear programmes with a higher value per student.

8 LUMI GRUPPEN quarterly report Q2 22

Even if the overall number of student applications to NUCAS (“Samordna opptak”) in Norway is declining, the demand for online programmes increased by 34 percent. A strong online offering will therefore be a key differentiator in the education market of tomorrow. ONH is well positioned as the leading provider of higher online education in Norway and has a clear strategy to further strengthen the online education offering and expand student reach. The online platform will also provide ONH with the potential to scale operations further using its current infrastructure.

Outlook Because of the challenging market conditions, Lumi Gruppen will accelerate the ongoing efficiency programmes during the second half of 2022. This includes, among other things, rightsizing of the organisation, improved classroom efficiency, reduced administrative costs and improved marketing efficiency. Lumi Gruppen estimates that these new initiatives will reduce the Sonans cost base further by NOK 35-39 million. When completed, the operating cost base will be reduced by NOK 60-65 million for the school year 2022/2023. To fully compensate for the decline in sales, more measures will be implemented, targeting an additionally NOK 20-25 million in savings. These will include savings from all parts of the Group. As of week 31, Sonans’ sales for the school year 2022/2023 are approximately 30 per cent behind last year. Based on the sales trend for Sonans in recent weeks, a continued decline in campus sales is expected for the rest of the sales period. Sonans is therefore proactively transforming its business towards a more scalable business model, which more rapidly can adapt to changes in market conditions. This represents an opportunity for Sonans longer term, as the online model is significantly more scalable and efficient than the campus model. Further, it also opens for additional opportunities for new business and innovation. The new digital campus initiative Live has also been well received and will expand geographical reach and improve margins for Sonans. Live has very attractive financial metrics with limited investments and fixed costs combined with pricing on par with campus.

As of week 31, Oslo Nye Høyskole (ONH) has a growth of 9% for bachelor and master’s programmes. The total number of signed contracts is down 6 per cent for the school year 2022/2023 mainly as result of fewer single subject contracts. The market trends that affect the intake for Sonans, seems to be affecting the intake for ONH as well. ONH has traditionally received many students after the 20th of July intake for public universities, but less students without an admission place also creates some uncertainty for the remaining sales cycle for ONH.

A school year normally commences in August and is completed in June the following year where the autumn intake constitutes approximately 70 per cent of total annual school year sales. Consequently, the autumn student intake 2022 will also affect revenues for the first half 2023 for Lumi Gruppen and result in significant lower revenues for the school year 2022/2023. This will put pressure on margins and liquidity for the Group and, as stated above, additional measures will be taken to mitigate the consequences of this. Despite significant cost measures already implemented or under implementation, there is still a risk of breach of the bank covenant. This is due to a decline in operating revenues not being fully offset by cost measures. Furthermore, the full cash effect of measures will be from Q4 2022 while incoming payments from student contracts will decline already from Q3 2022. Lumi Gruppen has started discussions with its bank aiming to secure necessary headroom under the existing loan agreement to complete its transformation and restructuring process. So far the discussions are constructive and positive from the Group’sLongerperspective.term,Lumi Gruppen believes that the market will normalise as the underlying fundamentals for the education sector are still strong when excluding post-Covid effects. The need for higher education in Norway is still high and Lumi Gruppen is well positioned as a market leading provider of private education. Through a combination of high student satisfaction and a unique learning concept, the Company has established a competitive edge and is well positioned to exploit the market opportunities in the new normal post-Covid.

NON-RECURRING ITEMS

Revenues increased by 0.2 per cent to NOK 134.4 million in Q2 2022, compared to NOK 134.1 million in Q2 2021. Revenue was positively impacted by a significant increase in the number of students at Oslo Nye Høyskole (ONH), with NOK 7.7 million in higher sales for the quarter corresponding to 20.0 per cent growth. For Sonans, online sales have been strong with NOK 28.9 million for the quarter and the online revenue share increased from 23% in Q2 2021 to 33% in Q2 2022. The increase is in part driven by the new commercial terms for online from 1 January 2022. For campus, volumes are unchanged from Q1 and ended at NOK 59.1 million compared to NOK 73.7 million in Q2 2021. Adjusted total operating expenses increased by 10.4 per cent to NOK 81.2 million in Q2 2022, compared to NOK 73.5 million in Q2 2021. The increase is explained by the investments made for new programmes at ONH together with higher bad debt and marketing costs for Sonans. For ONH, the investments are mainly additional employees required for the accreditation and launch of the new programmes and additional marketing costs to support the launch. In total, the increase amounts to approximately NOK 2.6 million for the quarter and NOK 11.4 million year to date. With respect to the personnel costs, most employees started in the second half of 2021, so for the second half of 2022, costs are expected to be more in line with second half of 2021. For Sonans, cost measures were implemented with effect from January 2022 to compensate for lower campus volumes and the online shift. The measures are expected to contribute with NOK 10 12 million this financial year. For Q2 2022, Sonans had savings of NOK 4.7 million related to personnel costs and total savings for personnel cost were NOK 7.3 million as of 2H 2022. In addition to these cost measures, it has been decided to close three campuses from the school year 2022/2023. This will give an additional NOK 7 million in savings in 2022 and NOK 14 million annually. Other operating expenses for Sonans ended at NOK 33.4 million compared to NOK 26.1 million in Q2 2022 representing an increase of 27.7 per cent. The reasons for the increase in expenses are higher bad debt accrual (NOK 3 million), IFRS adjustment of bad debt cost in 2021 numbers (NOK 3 million) and higher marketing costs for the school year 2021/2022 (NOK 2 million). See more comments on this in the segment information on Sonans in this report.Adjusted depreciation and amortisation expenses were NOK 14.8 million in Q2 2022 compared to NOK 12.8 million in Q2 2021. The increase is mainly a result of slightly higher non-lease related depreciation. Adjusted EBIT ended at NOK 38.5 million, a decrease of 19.1 per cent compared to the same period last year. Reported EBIT ended at NOK 30.7 million, a decrease of 28.6 per cent compared to the same period last year. The deviation between adjusted EBIT and reported EBIT is explained by the non-recurring items. The net financial expense in Q2 2022 was NOK 6.4 million compared to NOK 6.3 million in Q2 2021. Income tax expense in Q2 2022 was NOK 4.7 million compared to NOK 7.7 million in Q2 2021. Profit was NOK 19.6 million in Q2 2022 compared to NOK 29.0 million in Q2 2021.

CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT

For the second quarter, the Group reported NOK 7.8 million in non-recurring items. Of this, NOK 1.9 million was related to the Qybele LMS license fee that will expire December 31, 2022. Further, NOK 1.7 million in legal fees were expensed due to the legal dispute with Nettskolen Eureka AS and Oslo Nye Høyskole on the calculation of the license fee. Oslo Nye Høyskole AS was acquitted of all claims, but the parties were ordered to bear their own legal costs and share the arbitral tribunal’s fees.

The financial statement presented as part of the Operational and Financial review, has been adjusted for non recurring items. A non recurring item is by definition an entry that appears in the Company’s or the Group’s financial statements that is unlikely to happen again and is infrequent or unusual. Non-recurring items are commented separately as part of the Financial Review. The condensed interim financial statement and notes for Q2 and 2H of 2022 are unaudited.

Net cash flow from the Group’s operations during Q2 2022 was NOK -70.2 million. The difference between net cash flow from operations and profit before tax of NOK 24.2 million is mainly due to changes in working capital. For both Sonans and Oslo Nye Høyskole, most students pay tuition fees early in the semester (resulting in a very positive cash flow in Q1 and Q3), and the latter part of the semester the cash is used for ongoing operations. The net cash outflow from investing activities amounted to NOK 4.9 million during Q2 2022. Of that, NOK 4.5 million relates to capitalised development costs for new programmes at Oslo Nye Høyskole and NTech and NOK 0.4 million relates to investments in fixed assets such as IT equipment and computers. The net cash outflow from financing was NOK 57.0 million during Q2 2022. This consists of the principal portion of lease liabilities in accordance with IFRS 16, repayment of debt and dividend payment.During Q2 2022, the Group had a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents of NOK 132.2 million. As at the balance sheet date, the Group had cash and cash equivalents of NOK 32.3 million, compared to NOK 37.3 million in the same period last year.

On 3 August 2022, Lumi Gruppen published an announcement stating that the student intake for the coming school year is approximately 30% behind last year for Sonans and in line with last year for Oslo Nye Høyskole. The lower intake for Sonans will result in significant lower revenues for the school year 2022/2023. This will put pressure on margins and liquidity for the Group. Measures are already implemented, and additional measures will be implemented. Together this will contribute with significant savings annually. However, timing will be a challenge as the full cash effect of the savings will not be fully implemented before year-end 2022. This would therefore, in addition to the lower EBITDA, lead to a higher leverage with potentially a risk for breach of the bank covenant. The bank covenant (leverage ratio) is 3.5 as at 31 October 2022, 3.75 as at 31 December 2022 and 3.5 as at 31 March and thereafter. Leverage ratio is calculated based on the EBITDA and net debt excluding IFRS 16 leases.

EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS

The Group’s assets totalled NOK 1 187 million in Q2 2022, a decrease of NOK 12.5 million from Q2 2021. The Group’s equity amounted to NOK 536.1 million, a decrease of NOK 8.7 million since Q2 2021. The decrease is a result of the dividend payment of NOK 36 million in Q2 2022 not fully offset by the net profit in the period from Q2 last year. The equity ratio was 45 per cent in Q2 2022, compared to 43 per cent in Q2 2021. Current and non-current liabilities to financial institutions were NOK 427.6 million in Q2 2022 compared to NOK 446.6 million in Q2 2021.

Total revenues ended at NOK 88.0 million in the second quarter, a 7.5 per cent decrease from the same period last year. Online revenues grew by 34.7 per cent in the second quarter while campus revenues decreased by 19.8 per cent. The growth for online is driven by an online shift in the market and the effect of changes in commercial terms from January 1, 2022. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Sonans experienced an extraordinary shift from students attending classes on campus to online studies. This has led pressure on margins and lower sales as result of 25-30% lower prices for online compared to campus. Because of this, several measures have been implemented including among other a price increase for online courses by 10 per cent in average effective from the school year 2022/2023. In addition, prices for campus courses have been adjusted up by 3.5 per cent. Total operating expenses increased by NOK 2.6 million in Q2 2022 compared to the same period last year and ended at NOK 53.0 million. Personnel expenses decreased by NOK 4.7 million due to the announced downsizing of the organisation with a target of NOK 12 million in savings for 2022. At end Q2 2022, total savings are NOK 7.3 million. The reason for the increase in other expenses is explained by a higher bad debt accrual (NOK 3 million), IFRS adjustment of bad debt cost in 2021 numbers (NOK 3 million) and higher marketing costs for the school year 2021/2022 (NOK 2 million).

15 LUMI GRUPPEN quarterly report Q2 22

The bad debt accrual is a result of a relatively higher share of students not paying for their courses. There are no obvious reasons that can explain this, but the same trend has been observed for ONH even though the effect is not as significant. A higher share of online sales is however a part of the explanation, but the development is more negative compared to what would be expected. As a result of this, several measures have been implemented to reduce credit risk and the bad debt cost going forward. In addition to the higher bad debt accrual, an IFRS adjustment was made in Q2 2021 resulting in NOK 3 million lower other operating expenses. The adjustment is related to the implementation of IFRS from 1 January 2021 and represents a reversal of an accrual made on 31 December 2020. Please also see comments on this item in the annual report for 2021 (note 3, page 24).

Adjusted EBIT ended at NOK 22.7 million, compared to NOK 34.8 million last year, with a corresponding EBIT margin of 25.8 per cent in Q2 2022 compared to 36.5 per cent in Q2 2021. The decline in students that have signed up for private candidate courses at Sonans for the school year 2022/2023 has accelerated, and total sales are approximately 30 per cent below last year as of week 31. The current market development is mainly a consequence of fewer students without an admission place in higher education, cancelled high school exams and a strong labour market. As a result, Sonans has initiated a new significant cost programme with effect from Q3 2022. The cost programme will include rightsizing of the organisation, improved classroom efficiency, reduced administrative costs and improved marketing efficiency. Total new annual cost savings are in the range NOK 35-39 million in addition to the already announced cost measures of NOK 26 million. Together this will reduce the cost base for the school year 2022/2023 by NOK 60-65 million compared to 2021/2022.

Longer term, Sonans believes that the underlying market and demand for private candidate courses are strong, and that the current market development is more short term in nature. Consequently, the current shift represents an opportunity for Sonans as online is a more flexible and efficient business model. This is already demonstrated by the launch of Live with very attractive financial metrics that also compensate significantly for lost revenue from closed campuses. Sonans will therefore proactively transform and develop its business to maintain a strong position within the private candidate market.

Total number of signed contracts is 6 per cent behind last year mainly as result of fewer single subject contracts. The market trends that affect the intake for Sonans seem to be affecting the intake for ONH as well. ONH has traditionally received many students after the 20th of July intake for public universities, but fewer students without an admission place also creates some uncertainty for the remaining sales cycle for ONH.

The growth is mainly driven by new programmes with a higher share of students taking a three-year bachelor’s degree. The continued growth will enable the school to achieve scale, which will positively impact the profitability this year and following years.

Operating expenses at ONH increased by NOK 2.6 million in Q2 2022 compared to the same period last year, predominantly caused by a payroll increase of NOK 1.7 million due to the addition of new employees from the second half of last year. The growth in headcount is a result of the investment in new programmes. Other expenses increased by NOK 0.9 million and is mainly related to higher expenses for marketing and other student volume related costs. Adjusted EBIT ended at NOK 15.5 million, compared to NOK 10.8 million during the same period last year, with a corresponding EBIT margin of 33.4 per cent in Q2 2022 compared to 28.0 per cent in Q2 2021. This represents a margin expansion of 5.4 percentage points and shows the effect of the revenue growth on the P&L when the ramp-up costs are fully implemented. From second half of 2022, costs are expected to be more in line with last year and the margin will increase from the continued revenue growth. As of week 31, ONH has a growth of 9% for bachelor and master’s programmes for the school year 2022/2023.

2 Revenue Lumi Gruppen earns revenue from educational services. The educational services include one university college and private candidate schools across Norway. Services are delivered both on campus and online. Services are delivered over time to the students. Educational service revenue is distributed according to the individual course sold. Courses for a single semester is distributed over 4 to 6 months while courses running over two semesters are distributed over 10 to 12 months. Invoicing for the educational services is done at the beginning of each school semester, in September and January. Invoices sent in September are for both the semester and for the entire school year fees. This creates the posting of the deferred revenue in the balance sheet (a contract liability). This contract liability is always current, as the revenue will be earned within a maximum of 9 months after the date of the invoice. 1000

Leverage ratio Net debt divided by last twelve months Adjusted EBITDA before impact of IFRS 16. Capital expenditure Capital expenditure (capex) is a measure of total investment in the period both in the operations and in development of new business. Capital expenditures consist of both maintenance capex and development capex and the source of capex is the Statement of cash flows.

Adjusted operating cash flow is based on Net Cash Flow from Operations excluding non-recurring items, interest cost and interest paid and including capex. The group has presented this APM because it considers it to be an important supplemental to understand the normalized cash flow of the Group when excluding non recurring items.

Adjusted EBIT margin Adjusted EBIT divided by total revenue. Net debt Current and non-current borrowings for the period (excluding property lease liabilities recognised under IFRS 16) less cash and cash equivalents for the period. Net debt is a non IFRS financial measure, which the Group considers to be an APM, and this measure should not be viewed as a substitute for any IFRS financial measure. The Group has presented this APM as it is a useful indicator of the Group’s indebtedness, financial flexibility and capital structure because it indicates the level of borrowings after taking into account cash and cash equivalents within the Group’s business that could be utilised to pay down the outstanding borrowings. Net Debt is also used as part of the assessment for financial covenant compliance.

Adjusted EBITDA before impact of IFRS 16 is a measure of EBITDA adjusted for (i) lease expenses applying IAS 17 Leases, (ii) revenue and cost from sold or acquired business, and (iii) certain extraordinary items affecting comparability, referred to as Non-Recurring items in this report. The Group has presented this APM because it considers it to be an important supplemental measure to understand the leverage ratio of the Group.

Pro Forma revenues are revenues for the Group adjusted for sold or acquired entities. Sonans Karriere AS was disposed from the Group in early June 2020, and the financials of Sonans Karriere AS are included in the reported consolidated reported revenues for the Group until and including May 2020.

Alternative performance measures

The Group reports its financial results in accordance with IFRS accounting principles as issued by the IASB and as endorsed by the EU. However, management believes that certain Alternative Performance Measures (APMs) provide management and other users with additional meaningful financial information that should be considered when assessing the Group’s ongoing performance. These APMs are non IFRS financial measures and should not be viewed as a substitute for any IFRS financial measure. Management, the board of directors and the long-term lenders regularly use APMs to understand, manage and evaluate the business and its operations. These APMs are among the factors used in planning for and forecasting future periods, including assessing compliance with financial covenants. Alternative Performance Measures reflect adjustments based on the following items: Pro Forma revenues
