Nasdaq Nordic: Nasdaq Stockholm Welcomes CombiGene to First North

Stockholm, December 19, 2018- Nasdaq (Nasdaq: NDAQ) announces that the trading
in CombiGene AB's shares (short name: COMBI) will commence today on Nasdaq
First North in Stockholm. CombiGene belongs to the health care sector and is
the 83rd company to be admitted to trading on Nasdaq's Nordic markets* in 2018. 

CombiGene has, by combining advancements in neuroscience and modern gene
therapy, developed a treatment method which is shown to prevent epileptic
seizures. Currently, CombiGene is focusing on further developing this treatment
for the benefit of epilepsy patients. The company's knowledge and experience
can also be put to use for developing effective gene therapies for other
difficult-to-treat diseases for which adequate treatment methods are currently
lacking. CombiGene's office is located at Medicon Village in Lund and the
company is built on research results from Lund University and the University of
Copenhagen. For more information, please visit www.combigene.com. 

"The switch to Nasdaq First North will increase the awareness of CombiGene and
attract a larger group of investors and accordingly it will give the company
better access to both Swedish and International capital," said Jan Nilsson CEO
of CombiGene. "Given the strong progress of our epilepsy project and the
growing international interest, the switch to Nasdaq First North is a very
natural step to take." 

"We welcome CombiGene to Nasdaq First North," said Adam Kostyál, SVP and Head
of European Listings, Nasdaq. "CombiGene joins our growing health care sector
and we congratulate the company on its successful listing."
