The Gateway to DeFi, Crypto & Web 3.0. HY 2022 as expected. Price Target
confirmed.

In the past half year 2022, the Advanced Blockchain AG Group generated
revenues of € 23.40 million. (HY 2021 €2.12 million).

EBITDA of € 0.88 million was achieved, which corresponds to an EBITDA
margin of 3.8%. (HY 2021 € 1.56 million; EBITDA margin 73.8%). The largest
cost item was the cost of materials at € 21.49 million. Other operating
expenses amounted to € 2.38 million. Personnel expenses were very low and
amounted to € 0.28 million. Overall, net income of € -0.54 million was
achieved, resulting in a net margin of -2.3%.
The company has a very lean balance sheet. Equity in the group amounted to
€ 12.97 million, which corresponds to an equity ratio of 57.6%. Liquid
funds were € 3.53 million.

Their crypto investments were recognized at cost and are included in other
assets. The item receivables and other assets amounted to € 18.09 million.

Many of the portfolio positions are still at the beginning and have a great
potential to develop dynamically. In addition, according to our assessment,
there are still unpublished portfolio positions, which can also have a
value-enhancing effect. According to the management, the annual holding
costs are just below € 2 million, which we deduct from our portfolio
valuation according to the NAV approach.

In total, we confirm our calculated enterprise value of around € 83 million
according to NAV. With 3.79 million shares outstanding, this corresponds to
a value per share of € 21.99. Due to difficult crypto markets and the
ongoing ‘crypto winter’, we have applied an additional market discount to
the calculated fair value. We currently calculate this at around 55%.
Therefore, we see the fair value at € 37.75 million or € 10.00 per share.
Thus, our price target of EUR 10.00 is currently significantly below the
calculated fair intrinsic value. With a calming of the crypto markets and a
‘crypto spring’, we will then also reduce our ‘market discount’
accordingly. 

Against the background of the high upside potential, we assign a BUY
rating.

Outlook 2022
Despite the loss in the first half of 2022, Advanced Blockchain AG’s
management is aiming to end fiscal 2022 profitably, which is ‘very
realistic due to profitable incubation efforts, as well as the successful
partial sale of tokens.’
