Bergen, Norway, 30 May 2025 -- Lifecare ASA (LIFE), a medtech company
developing next-generation Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) technology, is
pleased to announce the selection of its second clinical trial site: the
Pfützner Science & Health Institute (PSHI) in Mainz, Germany.

This announcement follows Lifecare's regulatory submission on 20 May 2025 for
its first-in-human trial of the CGM implant, and the appointment of Professor
Simon Nitter Dankel as Principal Investigator at the Research Unit for Health
Surveys (RUHS), University of Bergen, as announced on 27 May 2025.

Lifecare's planned clinical trial marks a key milestone on the path toward
clinical validation and commercialization. Pending timely regulatory approval,
Lifecare expects to finalize the trial by early Q4 2025, in line with budget
and operational plans. The outcome will form the basis for initiating a
pivotal CE-mark trial later this year, with finalization expected in 2026. A
commercial launch of the CGM implant for human use is planned for 2027.

At PSHI, the trial will be conducted by Dr. Daniela Sachsenheimer and Dr.
Julia Jantz, who will serve as site investigators. PSHI is a renowned
institution specializing in metabolic research and clinical development. The
institute is led by Lifecare's Chief Scientific Officer, Prof. Dr. Dr. Andreas
Pfützner, who also serves as owner and principal of PSHI.

Lifecare and PSHI share a long-standing collaboration. PSHI has previously
conducted several key clinical and pre-clinical initiatives on behalf of
Lifecare, including clinical trials in 2023.

"Expanding our clinical operations to PSHI in Germany brings valuable
experience and continuity through the leadership of Drs. Sachsenheimer and
Jantz," said Joacim Holter, CEO of Lifecare ASA. "Our long-standing
partnership with PSHI provides a solid foundation for the successful execution
of this trial."

With RUHS in Norway and PSHI in Germany now confirmed as trial sites, Lifecare
continues to advance its clinical roadmap for the wireless CGM implant,
targeting completion of the initial trial in early Q4 2025 and transition into
the pivotal CE-mark trial later this year.
