To the Board of Precise Biometrics AB (publ) 
 
Introduction 
We have performed a general review of the summary of the financial interim report (interim report) for Precise Biometrics AB (publ) as of 
September 30, 2023, and the nine-month period that ended on that date. It is the responsibility of the Board and the CEO to prepare and 
present this interim report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. It is our responsibility to express a conclusion on 
this interim report on the basis of our general review. 
 
The focus and scope of the summary review 
We have conducted our general review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements ISRE 2410, General review of 
financial interim information conducted by the company’s elected auditors. A general review consists of making inquiries, in the first instance 
of persons who are responsible for financial issues and accounting issues, to conduct an analytical review, and to perform other general 
review measures. A general review has a different focus and is of a significantly smaller scope in comparison with the focus and scope of an 
audit in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing and otherwise generally accepted auditing standards.  
The review measures performed during a general review do not allow us to obtain a sufficient degree of certainty so as to be aware of all the 
important circumstances we would have identified if an audit were conducted. Therefore, the opinion we have expressed on the basis of a 
general review does not have the same degree of certainty as an opinion based on an audit. 
 
Conclusion 
On the basis of our general review, we have not found any circumstances that have given us reason to believe that the interim report has not 
in all material respects been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, and for the parent company in 
accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act.
