DIRECT ADMISSION TO NEGOTIATION

ADVERTISSEMENT

Euronext Growth is a market operated by Euronext. Companies on Euronext Growth

are not subject to the same rules as companies on a Regulated Market (a main market). Instead they are subject to a less extensive set of rules and regulations adjusted to small growth companies. The risk in investing in a company on Euronext Growth may therefore be higher than investing in a company on a Regulated Market.

The present Information Document does not constitute a prospectus within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 of June 2017 on the prospectus to be published when securities are offered to the public or admitted to trading on a regulated market, and repealing Directive 2003/71.

The present Information Document has been drawn up under the responsibility of Making Science. It has been reviewed by Renta 4 Corporate, S.A. and has been subject to an appropriate review of its completeness, consistency and comprehensibility by Euronext.

Mr. José Antonio Martínez Aguilar, in his capacity as Chairman of the company's Board of Directors declares that, to the best of his knowledge, the information provided in this Information Document is accurate and that, to the best of his knowledge this Information Document is not subject to any (material) omissions, and that all relevant information is included in this Information Document.

1.4.2. Origins and consolidation of the Group

The Making Science Group had its inception in 2016 from the vision of José Antonio Martínez Aguilar (formerly Managing Director of Google in Portugal and Director of various divisions in Spain and Canada) to create an integrated technology and marketing group aiming at organic and inorganic growth.

The first integration of companies into the Making Science Group came about in July 2016 with the alliance and merger of two companies, (i) The Science of Digital, S.L., established on 5 May 2016 by José Antonio Martínez Aguilar for digital advertising and Google technology-based data analytics, and (ii) Make Marketing y Comunicación, S.L. (currently Making Science Group, S.A., the Group's parent company), established on 8 January 2001 by Gonzalo Verdeja Lizama and headed by Álvaro Verdeja Junco, for digital marketing specialising in SEO (Internet search engine positioning) and social media.

To develop that vision, in 2017 and 2018 the Group operationally merged with five companies with complementary staff and know-how, sharing offices, though corporate acquisitions ended between 2018 and 2019. In addition, in 2020 the Group purchased CloudForms, S.L.'s Salesforce business and Omniaweb Italia, S.R.L. The main features of the mergers of these companies are summarised below:

Making Science offers media and technology agency services brokering purchases of digital advertising space and technology for subsequent resale to its clients. The media involved are from different vendors, such as Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon, Unidad Editorial, and PRISA. The technology is basically that of the Google Marketing Platform including the Google Analytics 360 product, along with such other technology platforms as Salesforce, HubSpot, etc. Ad tech platform marketing is not mutually exclusive among the different vendors. At present most revenues are earned from marketing Google's technology platform.

Net revenues from turnover from media and ad tech technology marketing do not include the entire digital media budget managed by Making Science for its clients, which exceeded 100 million euros in 2019, from which the Company generates paid advertising consultancy revenues.

2.3. Proprietary in-house technology

Besides marketing third-party technology licences (see above), Making Science sells annual licences to the Company's own proprietary technology developed in house under the Software as a Service (SaaS) model.

The Company has already developed five different technologies:

  • Gauss AI: Machine Learning framework that includes pre-designed predictive models. These predictive models optimise the investment in digital marketing and user experience by activating the predictions on the various platforms, such as Google Marketing Platform, Facebook Ads, or Google Ads. Gauss AI is a technology funded by Spain's CDTI developed by The Science of Digital, SL, with the Making Science Group holding exclusive marketing rights to the platform and an option for the Making Science Group, S.A. to purchase the technology from The Science of Digital, S.L. at its book value. Making Science has already put the marketing process in motion.
  • Nilo: an integral e-commerce platform that enables companies to launch their e-commerce initiatives. It contains the functionalities needed to be able to launch an e-commerce web, including a product catalogue, a payment gateway, a logistics module, a user module, etc. The platform is currently running at KaveHome, Sanitas, and Mapfre Salud Digital (Savia).
  • Shoptize: a comparison shopping platform that enables end users to compare prices for more than two million products. Furthermore, it is a Google-certified CSS (Comparison Shopping Site) suitable for running campaigns on Shopping Ads.
  • DataQuality: software designed to validate KPIs (key performance indicators) reported by different marketing platforms using data ingestion, continuous data processing and display, and intercomparison of the reported data as well as comparison with a reference pixel.
  • Unifeedr: middleware with a persistent database that links the client's product feed to the Marketplace (Google Merchant Center). This tool maintains product feed and Merchant Center integrity, offering the team of consultants and the client full IT independence. Technicians can issue push notifications of changes in real time and update product details from Unifeedr to Merchant Center.

The in-house team is split mainly with the web and cloud development department, although the teams working on other lines of business are also involved in developing proprietary technology.

1.6.2. Success stories:

Making Science has had many successes with well-known clients, for instance::

L'Oréal

  • Main line of business: organic advertising consultancy.
  • Objective: to lead the entire semantic market in the beauty industry by coordinating brands to avoid cannibalisation (especially in organic search engine positioning) and structuring the divisions' digital ecosystem.
  • Approach: by fostering awareness of the importance of organic search engine positioning (SEO) by training all the departments concerned and designing methodologies to be included in the SEO implementation development process.
  • Results: a 29‑% increase in organic traffic to Lancôme (one of L'Oréal's perfume and cosmetics brands) with a 32‑% increase in the conversion rate.

Decathlon

  • Main line of business: organic advertising consultancy.
  • Objective: to increase sales by improving organic positioning and to become a bellwether in the retail sporting goods industry.
  • Approach: by focusing on technical implementations and content to enhance indexing (showing up in digital search results) and avoid duplicate content and consultancy by marketing managers to control the semantic market for each vertical (especially organic search engine positioning).
  • Results: a 27‑% increase in conversions and a 26‑% increase in organic traffic.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

22

Verti Germany

  • Main line of business: proprietary technology
  • Objective: to increase sales by optimising expenditures on prospecting (initial communication with prospective customers) and remarketing (communication with existing customers or users who have already visited the website earlier).
  • Approach: by drawing up a smart audience strategy using artificial intelligence-based predictive models on the Gauss AI platform (proprietary technology). Gauss AI is designed to predict the purchase probability of each website visitor based on data compiled from Google Analytics 360 and automatically generate audiences and segments among these users. These audiences were used to sideline users with the lowest scores in remarketing campaigns and to do the opposite with look-alike users in prospecting campaigns. A campaign using graphic and video advertisements based on smart audiences with a high purchase probability was then designed and the results were analysed for model fitting.
  • Results: within two months of the start of the initiative, sales increased by 20%, DV360 (Display & Video 360, a Google campaign tool for managing planning, creatives, segmentation, measurement, and optimisation) prospecting and remarketing campaign expenditures dropped by 45%, transaction volume rose by 16%, and the CPA (Cost Per Acquisition) in remarketing campaigns decreased by 55%.

This success was published by Think with Google (a Google blog that compiles data and cases for studying its digital marketing tools).

Other creativity and UX and UI (user experience and experience interface) successes

Making Science has garnered numerous successes in the areas of creativity and UX and UI for a range of brands, including Viaja Wäy, Sha Wellness Clinic, Uber, Totem, Microsoft, Bartalent Lab, Sofia Square, Pompeii, Black Limba, 4711, Mutua Madrid Open, República Móvil, MSD, Coca-Cola, Rustical Travel, Kanikas, Borgia Conti, Banco Santander, Biosearch Life, Mosquito, BBVA, and Socketines.

1.6.3. Acknowledgments and awards

Making Science has received many acknowledgments and awards, for instance:

  • It was voted SME of the Year by the Madrid Chamber of Commerce and Industry in June 2019 and will represent the Madrid Region in the Spanish SME of the Year competition in February 2020. This award recognises the Company for innovation, job creation, and internationalisation.

  • Great Place to Work ranked the Company as one of the best places to work in Spain in 2019.

It won the award for Best SEO/SEM Agency at eAwards Madrid 2019.

The Company takes on the role of strategic partner and Marketing Director for its clients which stands out as a provider of integral services that works side by side with its clients in each phase of customer acquisition (awareness, consideration, conversion, and loyalty). Making Science therefore offers customised services in organic advertising and paid advertising appropriate to each phase along with transversal services in each phase, e.g., developing digital assets and content (to boost customer interaction, maximise web traffic, and achieve conversion into sales) and data analytics (to tailor offers to customers, enhance interaction, and maximise conversion into sales).

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

24

1.6.5. Customer acquisition process

Making Science relies on an effective customer acquisition process based on a series of pillars.

How does Making Science acquire new customers?

Making Science acquires new customers through its proposals and by taking part in bidding, putting forward a large number of proposals every month with the aim of converting those proposals into new projects.

Receipt of requests for proposal and proposal preparation

Making Science relies on a series of elements to maximise the requests for proposal received, for instance:

  • Referers and recommendations: as the Group's portfolio of clients grows, the number of referers and requests for proposal received from prospective new customers grows along with it.
  • Events: the Group takes part in some four events monthly, organised either on its own or with partners, to foster contacts with prospective customers.
  • Acknowledgments and awards: the Group has received numerous acknowledgments and awards, such as the SME of the Year award by the Madrid Chamber of Commerce and Industry in 2019 and being named a Great Place to Work in Spain in 2019, the Best SEO/SEM Agency by eAwards Madrid 2019, and the Agency rated most highly by its clients by Agency Scope 2018/19.

Conversion of proposals into new projects

Making Science has a high rate of conversion of proposals into projects, higher than 30%. This is due to the Group's efforts and know-how regarding business processes and how to draw up proposals that stand

out because of their competitive strengths, namely, having a digital marketing team with a local presence, positioning as a one-stop provider of digital marketing and data analytics, integration of teams of highly trained and highly skilled specialists in areas that complement each other (consultants, programmers, data analysts, creatives, engineers, etc.), technology skills, and standing as a leader in ad tech.

1.6.6. Infrastructure and technical facilities

The Company benefits from a high degree of integration among teams of diverse specialists (consultants, programmers, data analysts, creatives, engineers, etc.) who share the same space and interact on an ongoing basis at the same main office on López de Hoyos Street in Madrid.

The premises are large, with open spaces and a floor area of 2,200 square metres. The building is large enough to absorb personnel growth in the coming years.

1.6.7. Relevant Markets and expectations of growth

Introduction to digitisation

The massive reach of the Internet fuelled by technological advances is making it necessary for companies to digitise, to turn the use of technology into a competitive tool.

The Internet has changed into a broadly used instrument that is experiencing massive growth. Technological progress from the early webs in the 1990s (including Google in 1998) to the widespread use of smartphones in the 2000s and 2010s (reaching half the population of the entire world in 2017) has expanded the Internet from barely 16 million to 4.5 billion users.

This escalation in penetration by use of the Internet is causing a whole gamut of sectors (i.e., retail, banking, education, insurance) to have to undergo a digital transformation to adapt to the growing demand by users for goods and services over digital media.

Examples of digital transformation in different industries

Consequently, there is a growing need for businesses to digitise their entire value chain, particularly marketing, where there is a need for digital advertising services (to attract customer attention), data analytics (to optimise online acquisition), and the development of digital assets (e.g., support for interaction with customers, i.e., e-commerce platform, web, etc.).

Digitisation of the value chain

Markets where Making Science does business: four growing markets

Making Science stands in the centre of four markets (digital advertising, data analytics, e-commerce, and the cloud) that are experiencing double-digit growth, with growth rates of around 15% per year.

1) Digital advertising

The new digital sphere requires a new form of customer relationships and forces businesses to expend increasing amounts on advertising on digital media in order to attract the attention of customers. As a result, advertising on digital media is likely to surpass advertising on conventional media starting in 2021, increasing from a projected share of 43.5% in 2018 to 52.1% in 2021 and 53.9% in 2022 worldwide.

The global digital advertising market had revenues of some 311 billion dollars in 2019, an amount expected to rise to 465 billion dollars in 2022.

Growth of the digital advertising market

Digital advertising market segments

The digital advertising market spans five segments (searches, social media, display, video, and classifieds).

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

28

  • Search engines (i.e., advertising on Google): an estimated market of 104 billion dollars in worldwide revenues in 2019 (33% of the global digital advertising market), expected to reach 127 billion dollars in 2022, with a compound annual growth rate ("CAGR") of 7% between 2019 and 2022.
  • Social media (i.e., advertising on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter): an estimated market of 93 billion dollars in worldwide revenues in 2019 (30% of the global digital advertising market), expected to reach 185 billion dollars in 2022, with a CAGR of 26% between 2019 and 2022.
  • Display (i.e., advertising as banners on destination web pages): an estimated market of 60 billion dollars
    in worldwide revenues in 2019 (19% of the global digital advertising market), expected to reach 77 billion dollars in 2022, with a CAGR of 9% between 2019 and 2022.
  • Video (i.e., advertising in videos on platforms like YouTube): an estimated market of 33 billion dollars in worldwide revenues in 2019 (11% of the global digital advertising market), expected to reach 48 billion dollars in 2022, with a CAGR of 13% between 2019 and 2022.
  • Classifieds (i.e., advertising on classified ad platforms like Milanuncios, Vibbo, Infojobs, Autocasión, and Fotocasa): an estimated market of 22 billion dollars in worldwide revenues in 2019 (7% of the global digital advertising market), expected to reach 27 billion dollars in 2022, with a CAGR of 7% between 2019 and 2022.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

Main vendors: importance of Google and Facebook

Searches and social media are the two main segments by size and growth, accounting for an estimated 63% of the market in 2019, dominated by a small number of operators, particularly Google for searches and Facebook for social media. This leadership in their respective segments enabled Google and Facebook to attain estimated market shares of 32% and 19%, respectively, of the global digital advertising market in 2019.

For businesses that advertise, this high concentration gives rise to a certain dependence on the services and technologies of those digital media vendors (in particular, in the case of Google, on Google Ads, Google Marketing Platform, and DoubleClick). As a result, this in turn represents an opportunity for companies that specialise in these technologies.

Increasing complexity of technology solutions

In addition, the digital advertising market is becoming more and more complex, both in the number of segments present and the range of businesses and technology solutions it contains. In this respect, the number of marketing technology software companies worldwide is estimated to be growing rapidly, from 150 in 2011 to around 7.000 in 2018 (source: Chiefmartech).

On the one hand, by enabling them to benefit as users of these new technology solutions, this dynamic is an

opportunity for businesses that invest in digital marketing. On the other hand, the growing number and complexity of those solutions presents clients with a difficulty when it comes to integrating them, which is in turn an opportunity for companies that specialise in digital marketing and technology consultancy and are able to make integration of these new technology solutions part of their value proposition to their clients.

Competitors in the digital advertising market

Section 1.6.8 of this Information Document lists the main competitors in this market.

2) Data analytics

There is growing demand for data analytics by businesses. In the current context of digitisation, businesses are able to access large quantities of data regarding their customers and their interactions with those

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

30

customers. Confronted with this new opportunity, Big Data and data analytics have gained relevance by bringing competitive advantages.

In this connection, data analytics is already quite a large market with high potential for further growth. That market is put at 189 billion dollars worldwide in 2019 and is projected to reach 210 billion dollars in 2020, a growth rate of 11%.

Data analytics market

Source: Statista

Growing ability of businesses to collect data

More and more data is now becoming available to businesses. The growing sophistication of digital assets opens up access to more and more data. More and more data are being generated and are projected to expand by a factor of

10 worldwide in 2016-25, to 160 zettabytes (billions of gigabytes) (source: SeaGate).

Limited ability to analyse the data collected

At the same time, despite the large quantities of data that can be collected by digital assets, businesses have a limited ability to process and use them in decision-making.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

31

Growing importance of developing a data strategy to business

Faced with these trends, it is increasingly essential for businesses to develop a data analytics strategy, not only to maximise data collection but also to maximise the activation of those data to enhance decision- making and efficiency (automation by predictive models and machine learning) in all parts of the value chain, including marketing (e.g., optimisation of digital advertising expenditures or automation of marketing actions like personalised product recommendations to customers), and in that way become smart businesses that are highly competitive thanks to their use of data (like Netflix, Facebook, Spotify, or Amazon).

The path to smart businesses

This presents an opportunity to businesses that specialise in data analytics, can offer their clients digital advertising campaign optimisation services, automation of marketing actions, and development of digital assets to collect, process and activate data.

Competitors in the data analytics market

Divisadero, Metriplica, and BMind are some of Making Science's competitors in this area. The data analytics market is characterised by the need to have highly qualified professionals and by a learning curve that requires several years to achieve a level of advanced professional competence.

3) E-commerce

The e-commerce (electronic commerce or buying goods and services on the Internet) market is experiencing heavy growth and is becoming more and more important compared to offline commerce. Sales are put at 3.453 billion dollars in 2019 and are projected to reach 4.878 billion dollars in 2021, with a CAGR of 19% between 2019 and 2021.

Growth of the e-commerce market

Source: Statista

Today all large companies are developing an e-commerce strategy that will enable them to adapt to their customers' needs.

According to data released by Spain's CNMC (the National Comission of Markets and Competition), e- commerce grew at an interannual rate of 22% in the first quarter of 2019, broken down by sector as follows:

E-commerce market competitors

Competing e-commerce companies are certified on different technology platforms. The main technology platforms are Magento (now owned by Adobe), Cloud Commerce (Salesforce), Prestashop, etc.

4) Cloud

A growing market given businesses' pressing need to store and analyse the data they generate. Worldwide revenues are put at 356 billion dollars in 2019 and are projected to increase by 15% in 2020, reaching 411 billion dollars. The cloud advertising segment stands out in particular and is projected to reach 151 billion dollars in 2021.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

33

Cloud market trend

Source: Gartner

Growth of the e-commerce and cloud markets affords an opportunity to businesses that specialise in digital advertising, are able to integrate e-commerce and cloud platform development into their value propositions to their clients, and can also offer support for data collection and analytics as well as for optimising digital advertising campaigns.

IDC projects a mean annual growth rate of 17% for the Cloud market in Spain in the coming years, climbing from the 1.514 billion euros attained in 2018 to over 2.790 billion euros in 2022.

Cloud market competitors

Google Cloud Platform, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Microsoft Azure are the three main cloud platforms. Making Science works chiefly on the Google Cloud Platform and specialises in developing digital marketing services and applications, though we have also effected implementations on AWS and Azure at its clients' request. Quite a few companies offer Google cloud services.

1.6.8. Competitors:

Making Science's vision is to become one of the main operators on the international stage, resting on the foundation of its positioning as a high value-added,one-stop provider for clients thanks to its integrated teamwork and its specialised know-how (232 advertising and data analytics consultants, creatives, programmers, and engineers, all based at the same office), to its ability to offer technology solutions (including proprietary solutions), and its certification for such leading technology platforms as Google Marketing Platform, Search Ads, Facebook Ads, and Amazon Ads.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

34

Making Science has an aggressive plan for international expansion to be able to compete with the large independent digital marketing and ad tech operators (companies that in some cases, like Jellyfish, have over 1,000 employees) and build a global network.

There are different groups of competitors with different profiles in the sector:

  • The Big 6 and their networks of affiliates: the main operators in the advertising sector by size are known as the Big 6, namely, WPP, Publicis, Omnicom, Interpublic Group (IPG), Dentsu, and Havas (all listed companies except Havas), though by the same token their holdings include hundreds of affiliates. These companies have net annual revenues on the order of 5 to 20 billion euros. In terms of their competitive strengths, these companies have a full range of digital marketing services (through their many affiliates) along with a certain national presence. Making Science has some strengths with respect to these competitors, namely, its technology and engineering skills (though these competitors may have affiliates that also have those skills), the degree of integration of its teams and affiliates (with effective communications and coordination that can assist in combining its services in an effective package in its value proposition to its clients), and the fact that we are digital natives (an association with and specialisation in digital marketing from the very inception of online advertising).
  • Global Digital Operators: for example, Jellyfish (United Kingdom), S4 Share capital (United Kingdom, listed), and DQ&A (Holland). These competitors have net annual revenues on the order of 100 to 500 million euros (Making Science aspires to join the ranks of these operators). In terms of their competitive strengths, these companies have a broad range of digital marketing services (digital advertising, creativity, data analytics), stand out on account of their strategic relationship with the leading technical platforms, have a certain level of integration of their specialised workforce (which is not spread out at a large number of different affiliates or offices), and have a certain national presence. They have high technological capabilities that differentiate them from traditional advertising agencies.
  • International operators positioned as one-stop providers: the leaders are M&C Saatchi, Artefact, The Mission, and Jaywing (all listed companies). These companies have net annual revenues on the order of 100 to 500 million euros. In terms of their competitive strengths, these companies have a broad

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

35

range of digital marketing services (digital advertising, creativity, data analytics), have a certain level of integration of their specialised workforce (which is not spread out at a large number of different affiliates or offices), and have a certain national presence. Making Science has a strength with respect to these competitors, namely, its technology and engineering skills (though some of these operators may have a certain skill level).

  • National operators positioned as one-stop providers: The Cocktail, Hastag Group, and T2O Media. These companies have net annual revenues on the order of 20 to 50 million euros. In terms of their competitive strengths, these companies have a broad range of digital marketing services (digital advertising, creativity, data analytics), have a high degree of integration of their specialised workforce (based at one or several offices), and are well positioned nationally. Making Science has a strength with respect to these competitors, namely, our technology and engineering skills (though some of these operators may have a certain skill level).
  • National specialists: estimated at more than 50 companies, some of the main ones being Relevant Traffic, Neo Ogilvy (though it is an affiliate of Ogilvy, which in its turn is an affiliate of WPP), BMind, Labelium, DBI, and Nateevo, in different service areas. These companies have net annual revenues on the order of 5 to 20 million euros. In terms of their competitive strengths, these companies stand out on account of their high degree of specialisation and strong positioning nationally. Making Science has some strengths with respect to these competitors, namely, its broad range of digital marketing services (not restricted to just one specialised field) and its technology and engineering skills (though some of these operators may have a certain skill level).
  • Generalist consultancy firms: chief among these are Accenture Interactive (a division of Accenture, a listed company) as the group with the best strategic positioning in digital marketing, though other large groups are also present in the market, e.g., Deloitte, Bain & Company, KPMG, PwC, and EY. These companies have net annual revenues on the order of 20 to 50 billion euros. In terms of their competitive strengths, these companies have a certain degree of integration of their specialised workforce (based at one or several offices), have a certain level of technology skills (with in-house programming, development, and engineering personnel), and are well positioned nationally. Making Science has some strengths with respect to these competitors, namely, its specialisation in digital marketing (rather than offering this as a relatively limited area within a broad range of services, except for Accenture Interactive, for which digital marketing is a core service) and its broad range of digital marketing services.
  • Technology consultancy firms: chief among these are Indra (listed), which is increasingly investing in digital transformation and marketing (acquiring such firms as the Spanish company Paradigma in 2018), and Everis (an affiliate of NTT Data), Atos (listed), and Cognizant (listed), etc. These companies have net annual revenues on the order of 1 to 20 billion euros. In terms of their competitive strengths, these companies have high levels of technology skills (their main specialisation), have a certain degree of integration of their specialised workforce (based at one or several offices), and are well positioned nationally. Making Science has some strengths with respect to these competitors, namely, its specialisation in digital marketing (rather than offering this as a relatively limited area within a wide variety of services) and its broad range of digital marketing services.

1.7. Strategy and Competitive Advantages

1.7.1. Strategy

Making Science's vision is to become the leading Spanish operator on the international stage, resting on the foundation of its positioning as a high value-added,one-stop provider for clients thanks to its integrated teamwork and its specialised know-how (232 advertising and data analytics consultants, creatives, programmers, and engineers, all based at the same office), to its ability to find technology solutions (proprietary solutions included), and to its access to the leading advertising platforms like Google Marketing Platform, Search Ads, and Facebook Ads.

Making Science has an aggressive plan for international expansion to be able to compete with the top independent global operators (companies that in some cases, like Jellyfish, have over 1,000 employees) and build a global network.

The Company's plan for international expansion includes a combination of both inorganic and organic growth and does not rule out either potential future share capital increases or debt financing, though the projections put forward in this Information Document contemplate only organic growth.

1.7.2. Competitive Advantages:

Making Science leverages its competitive positioning as a differential value for client acquisition, namely, its provision of a national digital marketing team, its positioning as a one-stop provider, its integration of teams of specialists, its technological capabilities, and its position as a leader in ad tech.

Together, all these attributes combine to enable Making Science to achieve a high rate of conversion of proposals into new projects, with each of the attributes operating as a filter with respect to other service providers, driving clients in their decision to select the Company as a pre-eminent provider and enter into long-term relationships.

  • Digital marketing team in the local market: Making Science's infrastructure and offices give it a local presence (on the date of issue of this Information Document for clients in Spain and Portugal, though new locations are under consideration). This contributes to communication with clients and to a knowledge of the local market.
  • One-stopprovider: The Company offers a full 360º range of services that makes it a one-stop, strategic provider for clients helps mobilise new business through cross-selling. For example, in e-commerce, Making Science can offer the full range of services from brand identity creation and conceptualisation to developing complex machine learning models for analysing data and optimising e-commerce, as well as such connected services as design and UX (user experience), platform and infrastructure development, content management, SEO positioning, feed, paid digital advertising consultancy, and campaign metrics and analytics. Making Science has some clients (like Black Limba) for which it has mustered the entire gamut of services right from the outset, but this is not usual, since it entails creating the brand identity from scratch. Nevertheless, in most cases our services span several links in the chain for each client.
  • Integration of specialised teams: The Company benefits from a high degree of integration among teams of diverse specialists (consultants, programmers, data analysts, creatives, engineers) who are all based at the same office. As of 25 November 2019, these offices house some 232 advertising and data analytics consultants, creatives, programmers, and engineers from five companies (The Science of Digital, S.L., Make Marketing y Comunicación, S.L., Crepes & Texas, S.L., Ingeniería para la Innovación I2TIC, S.L., and MCentric, Ltd.) who share the same space and interact on an ongoing basis at the same office on López de Hoyos Street in Madrid. The premises are large, with open spaces and a floor area of 1,900 square metres. The building is large enough to absorb personnel growth in the coming years, with higher floors available for more space.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

38

  • Technology skillset: Making Science has a team of more than 60 engineers, programmers, and developers who are skilled in developing digital assets, Big Data models, proprietary in-house innovations, and implementations. This allows clients to implement and develop digital marketing technology according to their own needs and in that way optimise their marketing campaigns and their digital strategies.
    o Digital asset and Big Data model development: the team of engineers, programmers, and developers is experienced at developing digital assets (web pages, e-commerce, ERP systems, CRM, cloud systems) to maximise data metrics and storage and at developing Big Data models and systems (artificial intelligence, machine learning) to take full advantage of data activation (i.e., analytics, automation, personalisation, alerts).

  1. Partnerships and certifications: the Company is technically proficient in all the main digital advertising platforms (e.g., Google, Bing, Facebook, Amazon) and the leading digital advertising optimisation software solutions (e.g., Analytics, DoubleClick, Salesforce, HubSpot, VWO, Convert, Walmeric, Searchmetrics, Sistrix, SEMRush).

Other competitive strengths

A distinguished, experienced management team

Making Science has a reputed management team that includes former Google executives, experienced in a broad range of areas and geographic markets and trained in related fields.

Business model based on recurring clients and cross-selling, serving as the client's strategic partner.

Thanks to its positioning as its clients' strategic partner in the digital marketing field and its broad range of

services, Making Science has developed an ability to acquire and keep large clients, with high repetition rates and a high degree of cross-selling.

The Company positions itself as its clients' strategic partner for the desired digitisation and offers approachable, quality 360º services that cover all the different value chain requirements.

Of the total net revenues, media and ad tech technology sales excluded (because this line of business contributes hardly at all to the gross margin yet makes up a large share of net revenues and so could be a source of distortion) 84.7% in 2019 came from recurring clients (acquired in 2018 or earlier), and the client portfolio is recent (mainly between two and three years' standing or less), the average client maintenance in the sector ranging from five to seven years.

In terms of cross-selling, all of the Company's lines of business include large, reputable clients that tend to repeat as major clients in the other lines of business.

Culture and Values in Making Science

Making Science is an operational reality with its own separate but unified culture. Of the Company's current 268 employees, 229 were brought in following the mergers of companies whose operations were integrated at the same place of business in 2017.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

40

Making Science has four corporate values that set it apart and provide a foundation for very rapid growth. The focus is on the individual and on talent development, enabling Making Science to grow as an organisation. These four corporate values are:

  • Innovation and Growth: with the right skillset, organisational agility, and our knowledge-based culture, we can achieve continuous growth through a commitment to strategy, innovation, and excellence in our relationship with our clients.
  • Customer and People Centric: we value our employees and clients, their goals, interests, and ambitions. We are committed to their success and to their growth, empowering them to become the best version of themselves.
  • Bias for Action and Results: we strive for excellence through leadership in decision-making and creativity in everything we do. Our drive towards ongoing innovation distinguishes us in success and adds differential value that surprises our clients. We make things happen!
  • Fairness and Collaboration: working together, practicing responsible decision-making, sharing knowledge, and working in close cooperation, appreciating diversity, and bringing talent together sets us apart, defines who we are, and is the source of our goals.

1.8. Dependence on trademarks, patents and licenses:

Making Science is a Google Marketing Platform reseller and is also a partner of such other platforms as SearchMetrics and Tealium, among others.

Part of the business is associated with reselling this technology to third parties, though the business also operates on the basis of licenses sold by third parties. For instance, Making Science is providing its analytics and data services to various automotive clients and educational institutions on the basis of licenses sold by other resellers. There are also cases of the converse, where licenses sold by Making Science are being operated by other companies.

1.9. Diversification Level

1.9.1. Clients

Making Science has a highly diverse portfolio of more than 150 clients in different industries, with high repeat rates.

The Top 5 clients and the Top 15 clients in 2019 respectively accounted for 37% and 61% of the pro forma net consolidated revenues, media and ad tech technology sales excluded (because this line of business contributes hardly at all to the gross margin yet makes up a large share of net revenues and so could be a source of distortion). In alphabetical order, the 15 main clients in 2019 were Altamira, Globacom, IFEMA,

Forecasts for 2021 and 2022

Making Science projects its net turnover and its gross profit margin to go up by around 15% a year starting in 2021. For its EBITDA, the Company expects to reach levels in respect of its gross profit margin of at least the level forecasted for 2020.

The Company's published estimates were drawn up using criteria that were comparable to those used for its historical financial reporting. These criteria are laid out in the General Accounting Plan. These assessment rules and criteria are also provided in its 2018 and 2019 Annual Financial Statements.

The main assumptions and factors that may substantially affect reaching these forecasts are detailed in section 1.18 of this Information Document, the following of which should be stressed:

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

46

  • Dependence of managers and key personnel
  • Risk related to keeping up competitive advantages long term
  • Risk of signing up clients
  • Concentration of activity in Spain
  • Risk related to geographic expansion
  • Risk associated with the ability to seal new strategic partnerships and acquire companies
  • Risk related to being one of Google's top partners in Spain and the ability to repeat that position in new markets
  • The cyclical nature of the sector
  • Risk of competition
  • Risk related to the concentration of suppliers in the sector
  • Risk related to technological disruption

Investors are advised to read them carefully with the information presented in this Information Document before making a decision on whether to make an investment by acquiring shares in the Company, as these factors may adversely affect the Company's business, its prospectives, its financial and economic situation, and its assets, and ultimately its valuation. It is also important to bear in mind that since the Company's shares have never been listed on a market, there are no guarantees as to the share volumes that will be sold or their effective liquidity.

The Board meeting of 23 December 2019 unanimously approved these estimates as information for potential investors and moved to track them and their fulfilment, undertaking to inform the Market if the business plan's main variables point to likely upward or downward deviations of 10% or more. Nevertheless, for other reasons, some variations of less than 10% may be significant. In both cases, this would constitute a relevant fact for the purposes of reporting to the Market.

  • Research and development: balance of EUR 1,324 thousand in 2019 and EUR 609 thousand at December 2018. The increase was due to the activation of researching and development expenses on the Gauss, Nilo and Shoptize projects. These expenses are recorded in the profit and loss account as "Capitalisation of intangible assets" and are activated as intangible fixed assets if they meet the conditions to be specifically itemised by projects, if their cost is clearly established so that it can be distributed over time, and if there are reasonable grounds for the technical success and economic/commercial profitability of the projects in question. These questions are related to the projected revenues based on the "Own technology" line of activity.
  • Goodwill: balance of EUR 1,944 thousand in 2019, comprising the goodwill that arose from the reverse merger with Propuesta Digital, S.L., the company holding the shares of Making Science Group, S.A. and that received the transfer of the branch of activity of The Science of Digital, S.L.

The increase under payables from provision of services is mainly related to the increased expenditure on jobs performed by other companies and the volume of services the Group contracted in the last period, in addition to reclassifications of balances under suppliers to the payables heading.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

65

For profit/(loss) before tax, the Group recorded EUR 1,437 thousand in profits in 2019, versus EUR 2,160 thousand in losses in 2018 (due to the EUR 3,499 thousand in impairment of the stake in MCentricksd, S.A.).

Net turnover

The Company reported EUR 35,531 thousand in net turnover in 2019 and EUR 18,840 thousand in 2018.

Costs of goods sold and gross margin

For its costs of goods sold, the Group had EUR 24,141 thousand in 2019 and 9,808 thousand in 2018. These figures correspond primarily to the purchase of adtech technology and media (purchases related to the adtech technology and media sales line of activity).

For its gross margin, the Group had EUR 11,390 thousand in 2019 and 8,999 thousand in 2018%, for an increase of 26.6%. The margin with respect to the net turnover went up from 32.1% in 2018 to 47.8% in 2019, due to variations in the relative weight of adtech technology and media in the product mix, as the Group's costs of goods sold are mainly related to this line of activity.

Capitalisation of intangible assets

The 'capitalisation of intangible assets' heading records the capitalisation of expenses incurred on research and development projects. The Group capitalised expenses of EUR 827 thousand in 2019, versus 277 thousand in 2018.

Projects must meet the following conditions to be capitalised or activated:

  • The projects and the costs must be duly and clearly specified.
  • There must be grounded reasons for the technical success and financial profitability of the projects in question.

The assets must be amortised on a linear basis over their lifespan, which is defined as five years.

The Group had the following main projects activated in 2019: Gauss (for a sum of EUR 191 thousand), Nilo (EUR 324 thousand) and Shoptize (EUR 312 thousand).

Personnel expenses

For personnel expenses, the Group posted EUR 7,728 thousand in 2019 and 5,606 thousand in 2018%, representing an increase of 37.9%. This expenditure level increased from 62.3% of the gross margin in 2018 to 67.8% in 2019. This increase mainly came from new employees who were hired to obtain a sufficient structure to handle future growth.

The personnel expenses came from the following list of salaries and wages, compensation, social Security

Other gains or losses

In other gains or losses, the Group posted a EUR 9 thousand loss in 2019, versus a EUR 3,499 thousand loss in 2018.

1.17.4. Cash Position Statement established within three months prior to the scheduled date of first admission to trading.

The Company's Board of Directors declares that, following an analysis with due diligence, the Company has sufficient working capital to conduct its activity over the 12 months following the incorporation of Euronext Growth.

1.17.5. Description of the dividend policy.

The Company wants to strike a balance between growth and shareholder remuneration. Therefore, even though it expects to prioritise reinvestment in growth, it does not rule out paying dividends of up to 30% of Net Profits.

The Company did not pay out dividends in 2020 in compliance with the covenants under its facility agreement with Banco Santander through its SMART Fund. It may begin to pay out dividends in 2021 if it is in compliance with the limitations established by means of solvency ratios.

1.17.6. Information on disputes that may have a significant effect on the Company.

There are no lawsuits that may have a significant effect on the Company.

1.18. Risk Factors.

Making Science's business and activities are predicated on intrinsic factors exclusive to it as described in this Information Document and by certain exogenous factors that are usual in any company in its sector. Therefore, before adopting any decision to invest in the Company's shares, investors should take into

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

69

account not just all of the provided information, but also other factors such as the risks indicated below in this section 1.18. If any of the described risks comes to fruition, the Issuer's business, results and financial and asset situation may be adversely and significantly affected. Investors should also take into account that these risks may have an adverse impact on Making Science's share price, which could lead to a full or partial loss of their investment.

The indicated risks are not the only ones that Making Science may face. There are other risks that, due to being more obvious to the general public, are not discussed in this section. Moreover, future risks yet unknown and not considered to be relevant may have an impact on the business, the results, the perspectives and the financial, economic and asset situation of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Investors should study carefully whether investing in Making Science shares is appropriate for them taking into account their personal circumstances and the information provided in this Information Document. Therefore, potential investors in the Issuer's shares should read this section and the rest of the Document carefully. Potential investors are also recommended to consult with their financial, legal and tax advisers before making any investment.

The order the following risks are presented in does not necessarily reflect the likelihood that the risks may actually materialise, their potential significance, or the scope of the potential harm to the Company's business, results and financial and asset situation.

1.18.1. Operational and valuation risks

Dependence of managers and key personnel

Even though Making Science has a growing organisational structure and management team that reduce its dependence on specific persons, it is managed by a small number of key senior managers (most notably for all purposes, the Company's CEO, José Antonio Martínez), whose loss could have a substantial negative effect on the Company's operations. Making Science's growth and success will depend to a large degree on his ability to bring in, train, retain and incentivise managers, and on each of the areas of the highly qualified organisational structure. A loss of key personnel and an inability to find other qualified personnel could have a substantial adverse impact on the Company's business and results, its financial situation, its assets and its share price.

Risk related to keeping up competitive advantages long term

Making Science's competitive position is based on a series of competitive advantages that, if they are not maintained in the medium- and long-term, may negatively impact the Company's business, and particularly its ability to reach its growth and profitability objectives.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

70

Risk related to being a leader in Google technology in Spain and the ability to repeat that position in new markets

Making Science's position as one of Spain's top Google technology agencies is a factor that sets it apart in the Spanish market. Making Science is also a reseller of the Google Marketing Platform for the entire EMEA region. If Making Science loses this leading position in the future, this might negatively affect the Company's growth, profits and share price.

Risk of signing up clients

Even though Making Science has a broad and growing portfolio of clients with excellent diversification by sectors, it has a degree of concentration in its five largest clients, who account for 36.6% of its turnover excluding adtech technology and media sales in 2019. (It is excluded because it is a line of activity that barely contributes to gross profits, and nevertheless bear a heavy weight of net turnover, which could cause distortions.) Losing these clients could have a negative impact on the Company's financial situation, assets and share price.

Concentration of activity in Spain

Making Science has a risk because of the high concentration of its activity in Spain, whence 83.7% of its turnover comes aside from advanced technology and media sales (for the reasons noted above) in 2019, and because most of its staff is in Spain, although the Company is in the midst of a geographical expansion that might progressively mitigate this risk in the future. The country undergoing a negative economic climate in the coming years could have a negative impact on the Company's financial situation, assets and share price.

Risk related to geographic expansion

Making Science is undergoing a geographical expansion that presents certain risks when being executed, although the expansion is being initiated with support from strategic alliances with local partners (such as IKI Media in Barcelona, and Karma Network in Lisbon) to mitigate these risks as much as possible. If the Company cannot conduct this geographical expansion as planned in the coming years, this might have a negative impact on the Company's financial situation, assets and share price.

Risk associated with the ability to seal new strategic partnerships and acquire companies

Making Science is the result of the partnership between Make Marketing y Comunicación, S.L. and The Science of Digital, S.L., and the subsequent integration of five other companies. Making Science also plans to continue growing, supported by levers including new strategic partnerships and acquisitions. If the Company cannot implement this strategy of forming strategic partnerships and acquiring companies as planned, this might have a negative impact on the Company's financial situation, assets and share price.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

71

Risk due to the influence of the majority shareholder

The main shareholder of Making Science holds 78.2% of its shares as of the date of this Information Document, and at the same time he is the CEO and Chair of the Board of Directors, which allows him to exercise a high degree of influence over the Company's decisions.

Conflicts of interest with related parties

The Company has conducted transactions with related parties and may continue to do so in the future in accordance with section 1.16 of this Information Document. If those transactions are not conducted in market conditions favouring the interests of its main shareholders and other related parties, this may negatively affect the Company's financial situation, results and share price.

Risk of possible contribution of an incomplete branch of activity of The Science of Digital, S.L.

The Science of Digital, S.L. transferred its branch of activity to Making Science Group, S.A. (through the instrument company Propuesta Digital, S.L., which was created for this purpose and later merged with Making Science Group, S.A.) from July to September 2019. As of the date of this Information Document, some The Science of Digital, S.L. have yet to complete the formalities to switch suppliers from The Science of Digital, S.L. to Making Science Group, S.A. Therefore, clients are still being invoiced by The Science of Digital, S.L., that are then re-billed to Making Science Group, S.A. There is a possible risk that clients may continue to invoice services furnished by Making Science Group, S.A. to the company The Science of Digital, S.L., even though that company does not provide services. This risk is limited taking into account that The Science of Digital, S.L. does not furnish the services directly and does not have the capacity to furnish them (it does not have any employees of its own). If this risk comes to fruition, it may negatively affect the Company's profits and share price.

Risk of not meeting forecasts

The Company has included its forecasts for 2020. Meeting these forecasts will depend on factors including the materialisation of the hypothesis on revenues and expenses in the forecast (organic growth, etc.). It should be stressed that there is a series of risk factors (detailed in that section) that may substantially affect the Company's ability to meet its forecasts, which could negatively affect its business, profits, financial situation, assets and share price.

Risks of regulatory changes

Making Science is subject to regulations that may be changed in the future. Changes to certain regulations could have a negative impact on the Company's financial situation, assets and share price.

A significant percentage of the Company's revenues come from contracts with durations of one year or less

Most of Making Science's contracts are tacitly renewable, although it also has contracts of two and three years and one-year contracts that normally correspond to projects. If these annual contracts are not renewed or if they are renegotiated for lower amounts, then the Company's financial position, assets and share price could be negatively affected.

Risk of claims in and out of court

The Company is not currently aware of any claims against it in and out of court due to, inter alias, its activities, its taxes from years open to audit, and the labour situation of its employees. However, any judgments on claims that are negative for the Company's interests could have a negative impact on its business, its profits, its financial situation, its assets and its share price.

Risk linked to the impact of COVID-19

On 11 March 2020, the World Health Organization elevated the public emergency situation caused by the coronavirus outbreak to an international pandemic. One of the measures taken by the Spanish government was to declare a state of alarm, publishing Royal Decree 463/2020 and approving a number of urgent extraordinary measures to cope with the economic and social impact of COVID-19 through Royal Decree- Law 8/2020 of 17 March.

That situation has made a significant impact on the global economy as a result of the interruption or slowdown in the supply chains, the substantial increase in economic uncertainty, and a reduction in liquidity.

Considering the complex nature of the markets as a result of their globalization and the absence, for the time being, of an effective medical treatment, it is complicated to make a reliable estimate of the potential impacts although, to date, there have not been any significant commercial or operational consequences for the Company or its subsidiaries.

The Company directors and managers are constantly assessing the situation to successfully cope with any potential financial and non-financial impacts. Among the formalities carried out by the Company to cope with the situation arising from COVID-19 and minimize the impact of the pandemic, the main ones, among others, are:

  • Organising shifts between employees to minimize infection risks.
  • Further analysing the risks of customer specially in sector such us hotel and hospitality.
  • Additional focus on cashflow and collections.
  • Carefully looking to all new hires.

Finally, the liquidity risk arises from the possibility of the Company not being able to have access to liquid funds, or access them in sufficient quantity and at an adequate cost, to meet its payment obligations at all times. To that end, the Company, at the date of this Document, has sufficient working capital and the liquidity risk is insignificant.

1.18.2. Risks related to the Company's financing and exposure to interest rates

Debt level

According to its 2019 pro forma consolidated financial statements, Making Science has EUR 2.5 million in net financial debt (equivalent to a multiple of 0.5 times its 2019 pro forma consolidated recurring EBITDA). Any breaches in payment of Making Science's financial debt and its other obligations could negative impact its financial situation, profits and valuation.

Risk of potential interest rate increases

Making Science's financial debt is exposed to interest rate risk, which may have an adverse impact on its financial results and cash flows.

Risk associated with financing of possible acquisitions of new companies

If the Company does not obtain the financing it needs to acquire new companies, it may have difficulties reaching its objectives, which could negative impact its business, profits, financial position, assets and share price.

1.18.3. Risks associated with the digital marketing sector

The cyclical nature of the sector

Digital marketing is a cyclical business that is subject to cycles that depend on the economic/financial climate. The budgets advertising companies allocate to digital marketing depend on, in addition to other factors, the economic growth rate, interest rates, inflation, changes in legislation, the geopolitical situation and demographic and social factors. Any changes in these factors might have a negative impact on the Company's financial situation, assets and share price.

Risk of competition

Making Science works in a competitive sector in which specialised Spanish and international companies also operate, although Making Science has a competitive position based on various strengths. If the groups and companies Making Science competes with or new competitor groups and companies arising in the future present a threat to Making Science and reduce its business opportunities, this may negatively affect the Company's business, results, financial situation, assets and share price.

Risk related to the concentration of suppliers in the sector

The digital marketing sector is highly concentrated on giant multi-national technology companies such as Google and Facebook, which have large market shares of global digital advertising revenues. The current level of concentration brings with it the risk that these suppliers could implement changes to their sales policies that might adversely affect Making Science, which could negative impact the Company's business, profits, financial situation, assets and share price.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

74

Risk related to technological disruption

Digital marketing is an activity that is subject to constant evolution and technological disruption that could present a risk to the Company, due to its need to adapt constantly. If the Company cannot properly adapt to this technological disruption, this might have a negative impact on the Company's financial situation, assets and share price.

Risk related to possible regulatory changes

Digital marketing, and in particular, data analysis, is subject to potential regulatory changes that could present a risk for the Company. This risk coming to fruition could have a negative impact on the Company's financial situation, assets and share price.

Economic slowdowns

Unfavourable economic conditions such as recessions and stalled growth in the markets where Making Science operates could negatively affect the affordability and demand of the services the Company offers. In adverse economic conditions companies may reduce their expenditures on new projects and seek lower- cost alternatives. If this happens, Making Science's revenues could decrease and this would negatively affect the Company's business, profits, financial situation, assets and share price.

1.18.4. Risks related to the shares

Possible dilutions in the future due to corporate operations and employee compensation plans

Making Science may acquire companies in the coming years by paying for them in part or in full by issuing new shares, or it may launch employee compensation plans by issuing new shares, which could have the impact of diluting the Company's shares.

Partial subscription of the capital increase

The proposed capital increase only being partially subscribed could raise investor distrust about the expansion plan, and thus a lack of interest in the value. All of this could push Making Science's share price down.

Risk of lack of liquidity

Since the Company's shares have never been listed on a multilateral trading system, there are no guarantees as to the share purchase volume and liquidity level. Potential investors should take into account that the value of their investment in the Company may go up or down.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

75

Evolution of the share price

As of the date of this Information Document, securities markets are highly volatile due to the current economic situation, and this may have a negative impact on the Company's share price. Factors such as fluctuations in the Company's profits, changes in analyst recommendations and in the situation of Spanish and international markets, and sales by the Company's main shareholders could have a negative impact on the Company's share price.

Any investors should bear in mind that the value of their investment in the Company may go up or down, and that the listed price of its shares may not reflect the Company's intrinsic value.

Good governance recommendations

Even though they do not apply to the Company because the Alternative Exchange Market is not classified as an official secondary market, as of the date of this Information Document the Company has not implemented all of the recommendations in the Code of Good Governance for listed companies approved by the Spanish Securities and Exchange Commission. This means that some information that may be of interest to potential investors is not provided in the same way and with the same transparency as in companies listed on official secondary markets.

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

78

The articles that include the relevant provisions in relation to these matters are quoted below:

ARTICLE 7. TRANSFER OF SHARES

The shares can be freely transferred according to the Spanish Capital Companies Act and to the regulations governing the Alternative Equity Market.

Transfers in case of change in control.

Anyone who intends to acquire shares representing more than 50% of the share capital must, at the same time, make a purchase offer addressed to all the shareholders of the Company, under the same terms and conditions.

Likewise, if a shareholder receives an offer from a shareholder or third party to purchase their shares, by virtue of which, as a result of its wording and the circumstances of the acquirer and the other concurrent circumstances, they must reasonably deduce that the purpose is to assign the acquirer shares representing more than 50% of the share capital, then the shareholder in question may only transfer shares that determine that the acquirer exceeds the indicated percentage if the potential acquirer proves that they have offered to purchase the shares of all the shareholders under the same terms and conditions.

Co-ownership, usufruct, pledge and attachment of shares.

The legal system applicable to the co-ownership, usufruct, pledge and attachment of shares will be that established in the Spanish Capital Companies Act.

ARTICLE 7 BIS. REPORTING SIGNIFICANT EQUITY

Shareholders must inform the Company of any acquisition or transfer of shares, by way of any title and directly or indirectly, that establishes that the total scope of their shares exceeds or falls below 10% of the share capital and its subsequent multiples.

If the shareholders are members of the Governing Body of the Company or directors thereof, their reporting obligation shall refer to the percentage of 1% of the share capital and its subsequent multiples.

Notifications shall be sent to the institution or person appointed by the Company to that effect (or to the Secretary of the Governing Body, if no express appointment is made), within a maximum of four (4) business days following the date on which the fact that gives rise to the obligation to issue the notification occurs.

The Company shall make this public in accordance with the provisions of the regulations of the Alternative Equity Market.

ARTICLE 7. TER. REPORTING COVENANTS

makingscience.com: EURONEXT Growth

79

The shareholders must inform the Company of the subscription, modification, extension or termination of any covenant that may restrict the transferability of the shares they own or that may affect the rights to vote inherent to the said shares.

Notifications shall be sent to the institution or person appointed by the Company to that effect (or, where applicable, to the Secretary of the Governing Body, if no express appointment is made), within a maximum of four (4) business days following the date on which the fact that gives rise to the obligation to issue the notification occurs.

The Company shall make these notifications public in accordance with the provisions of the regulations of the Alternative Equity Market.

ARTICLE 7. QUATER. DELISTING SHARES

If the General Meeting reaches an agreement in the Alternative Equity Market to delist shares representing the share capital without the favourable vote of any of the Company's shareholders, the Meeting will have the obligation to offer the shareholders who did not vote in favour of the delisting to acquire their shares at a fair price according to the criteria established in the regulations of public tender offers regarding assets in the assumptions established for delisting.

The Company shall not be subject to the above obligations when it agrees to admit its shares to trading on an official Spanish secondary market simultaneously with their delisting from the Alternative Equity Market.

2.8. Description of the functioning of the General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company.

The General Shareholders Meeting is subject to the Spanish Corporate Enterprises Act and the Company's Articles of Association.

3. OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION

3.1. Stock Option plan:

Making Science believes that employees are the Company's greatest asset, and it therefore intends to have all of its employees benefit from the Company's growth. As a general rule, all Company employees may receive stock options so that they may purchase Company shares at a discount from their list price.

On 10 December 2019, the Company approved a stock options plan (the "Stock Options Plan"). To benefit from the Options Plan, employees must remain with the Company for at least one year after signing their personal conditions. The execution periods will generally (but not necessarily) be three or four years, with linear releases or greater weights in the last exercise years.

The Stock Options Plan resulted in the dilution of the initial shares, and the Company has held back 360,000 of its shares in allocation to attract talent and keep them loyal.

Management of the plan and distribution of the options has been delegated to the CEO.

The Company does not discard the possibility of creating other types of incentives aside from stock options, which are necessary to attract talent and keep them loyal, and that are subject to approval by the pertinent bodies of the Company.

The Company intends to keep up to 5% of its shares back on allocation to meet its commitments to pay out shares under the Options Plan. To do this, the relevant bodies of the Company will adopt the necessary resolutions.
