Industry and Market Data. The data contained herein is derived from various internal and external sources. No representation is made as to the reasonableness of the assumptions made within or the accuracy or completeness of any projections or modeling or any other information contained herein. Any data on past performance or modeling contained herein is not an indication as to future performance. Kismet and Nexters assume no obligation to update the information in this presentation. Use of Projections. The financial projections, estimates and targets in this presentation are forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond Kismet's and Nexters's control. Although all financial projections, estimates and targets are necessarily speculative, Kismet and Nexters believe that the preparation of prospective financial information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out the projection, estimate or target extends from the date of preparation. The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected, expected or target results are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the financial projections, estimates and targets. The inclusion of financial projections, estimates and targets in this presentation should not be regarded as an indication that Kismet and Nexters, or their representatives, considered or consider the financial projections, estimates and targets to be a reliable prediction of future events. Use of Non-IFRS Financial Measures. This presentation includes certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as promulgated by the International Standards Accounting Board ("IFRS") and that may be different from non-IFRS financial measures used by other companies. These non-IFRS measures, and other measures that are calculated using these non-IFRS measures, are an addition, and not a substitute for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income, net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS. Nexters believes that these non-IFRS measures of financial results (including on a forward-looking basis) provide useful supplemental information to investors about Nexters. Nexters's management uses forward looking non-IFRS measures to evaluate Nexters's projected financial and operating performance. However, there are a number limitations related to the use of these non-IFRS measures and their nearest IFRS equivalents. For example other companies may calculate non-IFRS measures differently, or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore Nexters's non-IFRS measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Additionally, to the extent that forward-looking non-IFRS financial measures are provided, they are presented on a non-IFRS basis without reconciliations of such forward-looking non-IFRS measures due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations. Additional Information; Participants in the Solicitation. If the contemplated business combination is pursued, Kismet will be required to file a preliminary and definitive proxy statement, which may include registration statement, and other relevant documents with the SEC. Shareholders and other interested persons are urged to read the proxy statement and any other relevant documents filed with the SEC when they become available because they will contain important information about Kismet, Nexters and the contemplated business combination. Shareholders will be able to obtain a free copy of the proxy statement (when filed), as well as other filings containing information about Kismet, Nexters and the contemplated business combination, without charge, at the SEC's website located at www.sec.gov. Kismet and its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from Kismet's shareholders in connection with the proposed transaction. A list of the names of such directors and executive officers and information regarding their interests in the business combination will be contained in the proxy statement/prospectus when available. You may obtain free copies of these documents as described in the preceding paragraph. This presentation does not contain all the information that should be considered in the contemplated business combination. It is not intended to form any basis of any investment decision or any decision in respect to the contemplated business combination. The definitive proxy statement will be mailed to shareholders as of a record date to be established for voting on the contemplated business combination when it becomes available. Forward Looking Statements. Certain statements in this presentation may constitute "forward-looking statements" for purposes of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to (i) Nexters's revenues, bookings, performance, strategies, prospects and other aspects of the businesses of Nexters or Kismet, or the combined company after completion of the business combination, (ii) trends in the gaming industry, (iii) Nexters's target cohorts and user and the expected arrangement with them, (iv) Nexters's projected growth opportunities, including relative to its competitors and (v) other statements regarding Kismet's or Nexters's expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. Such statements are based on current expectations that are subject to risks and uncertainties. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "possible," "potential," "predict," "project," "should," "would" and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. of The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are based on Kismet's and Nexters's current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on Kismet and Nexters. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting Kismet and Nexters will be those that Kismet and Nexters have anticipated. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond Kismet's and Nexters's control) or other assumptions. Many factors could cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements in this presentation, including (i) that the business combination may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Kismet's securities, (ii) the risk that the business combination may not be completed by Kismet's business combination deadline and the potential failure to obtain an extension of the business combination deadline if sought by Kismet, (iii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the business combination, including the approval of the business combination agreement by the shareholders of Kismet and the satisfaction of the minimum trust account amount following any redemptions by Kismet's public shareholders, (iv) the lack of a third-party valuation in determining whether or not to pursue the business combination, (v) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the business combination agreement, (vi) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the business combination on Nexters's business relationships, operating results, and business generally, (vii) risks that the business combination disrupts current plans and operations of Nexters, (viii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against Nexters or against Kismet related to the business combination agreement or the business combination, (ix) the ability to maintain the listing of Kismet's securities on a national securities exchange, (x) changes in the competitive and regulated industries in which Nexters operates, variations in operating performance across competitors, changes in laws and regulations affecting Nexters's business and changes in the combined capital structure, (xi) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the business combination, and identify and realize additional opportunities, (xii) the potential inability of Nexters to achieve its projected bookings growth and scale its platform, (xiii) the potential inability of Nexters to maintain its diversified global revenue stream and cohort relationships, (xiv) the potential inability of Nexters to become a consolidator in the gaming industry, (xv) the enforceability of Nexters's intellectual property, (xvi) the risk of downturns and a changing regulatory landscape in the highly competitive industry in which Nexters operates and (xvii) costs related to the business combination and the failure to realize anticipated benefits of the business combination or to realize estimated pro forma results and underlying assumptions, including with respect to estimated shareholder redemptions. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the "Risk Factors" section of the registration statement on Form F-4 relating to the business combination, which is expected to be filed by Pubco and other documents filed by Pubco and Kismet from time to time with the SEC. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of Kismet's or Nexters's assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and Kismet and Nexters undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. 2#3Key risks relating to Nexters nexters The financial information and data contained in this Presentation is unaudited and does not conform to Regulation S-X. Such information and data may not be included in, may be adjusted in or may be presented differently in the registration statement to be filed with the SEC relating to the Business Combination and the proxy statement/prospectus contained therein. Certain of the historical financial information and data contained in this Presentation is preliminary and is based solely upon information available to the Company as of the date hereof. Such information is subject to change, and those changes may be material. Such information has not been subject to adjustment for normal period-end items as well as for other adjustments that may be required when quarterly or annual financial information is reported. The adjustments could be material and you should not place undue reliance on this information. In addition, the Company's auditors have not completed their audit procedures with respect to such financial information, nor have they expressed any opinion or other form of assurance with respect to financial information presented in this Presentation or its achievability • We are in the process of completing our PCAOB audit and have very limited history of IFRS reporting. Our reporting processes and the control environment may not yet be adequate enough to prevent any material weaknesses • Our core game offering, Hero Wars, generates substantially all of our revenue. There can be no assurance as to the continued success of such offering, and we may be unable to offset any declines in revenues from Hero Wars • If we fail to develop new games that achieve broad popularity, we may be unable to attract new players or retain existing players, which could negatively impact our business The recent COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions resulted in increased consumer interest and engagement in online gaming and there can be no assurance that such interest will continue • Global epidemics, contagious disease outbreaks and public perception thereof, could significantly disrupt our operations and adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition • We rely on third-party platforms, such as the iOS App Store, Facebook, and Google Play Store, to distribute our games and collect revenues generated on such platforms and rely on third-party payment service providers to collect revenues generated on our own platforms • A small percentage of total users have generated a majority of our revenues, and we may be unable to attract new paying or retain existing paying users and maintain their spending levels. 3 • We utilize a free-to-play business model, which depends on players making optional in-game purchases, and the value of the virtual items sold in our games is highly dependent on how we manage the game revenues and pricing models We operate in a highly competitive industry with low barriers to entry, and our success depends on our ability to effectively compete • Our ability to successfully attract in-game advertisers depends on our ability to design an attractive advertising model that retains players • If we develop new games that achieve success, it is possible that these games could divert players of our other games without growing the overall size of our network, which could harm our results of operations#4Key risks relating to Nexters (cont'd) nexters Changes to digital platforms' rules, including those relating to "loot boxes," or the potential adoption of regulations or legislation impacting loot boxes, could require us to make changes to some of our games' economies or design, which could negatively impact the monetization of these games reducing our revenues We rely on a limited number of geographies for a significant portion of our revenues • Our systems and operations are vulnerable to damage or interruption from natural disasters, power losses, telecommunications failures, cyber- attacks, terrorist attacks, acts of war, human errors, break-ins and similar events Any failure or significant interruption in our network could impact our operations and harm our business • Our success depends on the security and integrity of the games we offer, and security breaches or other disruptions could compromise our information or the information of our players and expose us to liability, which would cause our business and reputation to suffer • If we sustain cyber-attacks or other privacy or data security incidents that result in security breaches, we could suffer a loss of sales and increased costs, exposure to significant liability, reputational harm and other negative consequences We rely on information technology and other systems, and any failures in our systems or errors, defects or disruptions in our games could diminish our brand and reputation, subject us to liability and disrupt our business and adversely impact our results of operations • Our business depends on the growth and maintenance of wireless communications infrastructure • We are subject to various laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate, many of which are unsettled or are subject to change. We may be unable to identify or address regulatory changes in timely manner or at all, which could lead to additional compliance costs, customer claims and investigations by regulators, which in turn, can have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations Data privacy and security laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we do business could increase the cost of our operations and subject us to possible sanctions, civil lawsuits (including class action or similar representative lawsuits) and other penalties; such laws and regulations are continually evolving. Our or our platform and service providers' actual or perceived failure to comply with these laws and regulations could harm our business • Our business depends on the protection of our intellectual property rights and proprietary information. If we are unable to obtain, maintain and enforce intellectual property protection for our games, or if the scope of intellectual property protection is not sufficiently broad, others may be able to develop and commercialize games substantially similar to ours, and our ability to successfully commercialize our games may be compromised We use open source software in connection with all of our games, which may pose particular risks to our proprietary software, games and services in a manner that could have a negative impact on our business. • We could be exposed to additional tax liabilities on past sales in certain countries 4 • Changes in tax laws or tax rulings, the examination of our tax positions, or the permanent establishment of risk outside of Cyprus could materially affect our financial condition and results of operations#5Key operating and non-IFRS metrics used in the presentation nexters We are in process of completing our PCAOB audit for 2018-2020 which is expected to be completed in the next 2 months In this presentation, we use a number of non-IFRS financial metrics which we believe accurately, in material aspects, reflect the principal parameters of our historic and projected performance Operating metrics Monthly active users (MAUS) are the number of individuals who played a particular game in the 30-day period ending with the measurement date • Daily active users (DAUS) are the number of individuals who played one of our games during a particular day • Monthly paying users (MPUs) are the number of individuals who made a purchase of a virtual item at least once on a particular platform in the 30- day period ending with the measurement date • Average net bookings per paying user (ANBPPU) is calculated by dividing our net bookings in a given period by the number of months in that period, divided by the average number of MPUS during the period Net bookings • The company views bookings as a fundamental top-line metric used to manage the business and a useful indicator of the activity in any given period • Bookings is a non-IFRS financial measure that is equal to the total revenue we recognize in a given period, plus the net change in deferred revenue during the period. We intend to record the sale of virtual items within our games as deferred revenue and then recognize that revenue over the estimated average playing period of playing users • The company uses net bookings (as opposed to gross bookings) as a primary metric which equals gross bookings net of fees charged by the platforms (iOS, Google, Facebook etc.) • Other companies might potentially use other definitions of bookings Management EBITDA • With respect to forward-looking projections the company uses Management EBITDA defined as net bookings less marketing expenses less cost of sales and G&A, before share-based compensation, D&A, non-operating and one-off expenses, e.g. 2021 listing expense • Management EBITDA principally differs from more commonly used EBITDA/Adjusted EBITDA metrics as it does not account for the change in the deferred revenue, i.e. uses net bookings as the top-line reference point, as opposed to revenue • As our revenue and deferred revenue are growing year on year, the net increase in deferred revenue results in revenue being lower than bookings and therefore Management EBITDA being higher than more commonly used EBITDA / Adjusted EBITDA metrics Free cash flow to equity Company defines free cash flow to equity as net change in the company's cash position adjusted for the paid dividends over the respective period • We believe this is a meaningful metric indicating company's aggregate cash flow generation profile accounting for capex and changes in working capital as well as non-operating and one-off items 5#6Today's presenters KISMET 6 Ivan Tavrin Founder & CEO One of the most prominent and experienced TMT investors in Russia • Former CEO of MegaFon, #2 telco in Russia • Pre-IPO investor in Ozon and HeadHunter MEGAFON MEDIA 1 il VERTICAL Source: Company information.
