(Oslo, Norway - May 5, 2022) Airthings (AIRX), the global leader in air quality
monitoring and energy-saving solutions, today announced its financial results
for the first quarter of 2022. Sales revenue increased 41% year-on-year to USD
9.1 million in the first quarter. 

"We achieved robust growth in the first quarter, with revenue from Airthings for
Business more than doubling from last year. We see strong momentum in this
segment with recent wins including the Microsoft headquarters in Paris through
facility manager Sodexo, and a promising entry into the school market in the
Netherlands", says Airthings CEO Øyvind Birkenes. 

Revenues from the consumer segment came in at USD 6.1 million in 1Q22, up 42%
year-on-year, while Airthings for Business reached revenues of USD 2.2 million
(+101%) and increased its share of business from 17% in 1Q21 to 25% in 1Q22.
Revenues in the Pro segment decreased by 29% to USD 0.7 million, in a difficult
US home inspection market in the quarter. 

Annual recurring revenue (ARR) increased by 87% to USD 3.1 million in 1Q22,
driven mainly by the strong growth in Airthings for Business. 

Gross profit ended at USD 5.3 million in 1Q22, up from USD 3.8 million in the
first quarter last year with gross profit margin (GPM) of 59%. 

For the second quarter 2022 the company estimates a revenue level of USD 8.0 -
9.0 million, with ARR of USD 3.3 - 3.7 million expected at the end of 2Q22. The
guidance reflects macroeconomic developments such as inflation and weaker
consumer sentiment, and increased uncertainties related to the war in Ukraine.  

"We have been affected by component shortages and supply challenges over the
past year and have used the first quarter of 2022 to build sufficient inventory
to meet demand for our top selling View series going forward. Although supply
risks and market uncertainties remain, we are continuously monitoring the
situation to ensure adequate stock going forward", continues Birkenes. 

IFRS conversion and transition to reporting in USD has been completed and the
transition to Oslo Stock Exchange main list in June continues according to plan.

Practical arrangements:
The 1Q 2022 will be presented by CEO Øyvind Birkenes and CFO Jeremy Gerst at
