LHV Institutional Baltic Insight, March 17th, 2021

* Novaturas AB (NTU1L LH) has been one of the hardest-hit Baltic companies due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company reported its February 2021 turnover of EUR 1.5m (-86% y-o-y). The number of clients plunged to 2.5k (-81% y-o-y) in February 2021.
* Although many of the Company’s customers chose travel vouchers (instead of refund) worth EUR 1.5m, the Company (along with its subsidiaries) has received refund requests amounting to EUR 9.3m. The Company started a refund process already in June 2020, and as per the announcement dated the 15th of February, it has already returned EUR 8.4m, while the remaining amount was planned to be refunded by the end of February 2021.
* In order to settle with travellers and manage its cash flows, the Company actively worked with the governments and responsible institutions of all the Baltic States, which resulted in the favourable outcomes mentioned in the attachment.
