Financial risk factors The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit risk, interest rate and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial performance. Management identifies, evaluates and controls financial risks. No financial derivatives have been used in 2020 and 2019 to hedge risk exposures. The Group invests its available cash in instruments with the main objectives of preserving principal, meeting liquidity needs and minimizing foreign exchange risks. The Group allocates its liquid assets to first tier Swiss or international banks. Liquidity risk The Group’s principal source of liquidity is its cash reserves which are mainly obtained through the issuance of new shares. The Group has succeeded in raising capital to fund its development activities to date and has raised funds that will allow it to meet short term development expenditures. The Company will require regular capital injections to continue its development work, which may be dependent on meeting development milestones, technical results and/or commercial success. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs. The ability of the Group to maintain adequate cash reserves to sustain its activities in the medium term is highly dependent on the Group’s ability to raise further funds. Consequently, the Group is exposed to continued liquidity risk. The table below analysis the remaining contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. The amounts disclosed in the table are the undiscounted cash flows: Carrying Less than Between 2 years Total December 31, 2020 Trade and other payables 762,453 762,453 — — 762,453 Accrued expenses 1,433,106 1,433,106 — — 1,433,106 Loan and borrowings 523,920 473,920 50,000 523,920 Derivative financial instruments 316,757 310,439 — 6,318 316,757 Total 3,036,236 2,979,918 50,000 6,318 3,036,236 Carrying Less than Between 2 years Total December 31, 2019 Trade and other payables 938,247 938,247 — — 938,247 Accrued expenses 1,339,822 1,339,822 — — 1,339,822 Loan and borrowings — — — — — Derivative financial instruments 4,353 — — 4,353 4,353 Total 2,282,422 2,278,069 — 4,353 2,282,422 Fair value measurement Fair values as at Fair Financial assets / liabilities December 31, December 31, value Valuation technique(s) and key input(s) Derivative financial liabilities – Warrants from public offerings Liability 6,318 Liability Level 2 Black-Scholes option pricing model The share price is determined by Company’s NASDAQ quoted-price. The strike price and maturity are defined by the contract. The volatility assumption is driven by Company’s historic quoted share price and the risk free rate is estimated based on observable yield curves at the end of each reporting period. Derivative financial liabilities – Embedded derivatives 310,439 — Level 3 Monte Carlo simulation model The valuation is based on input parameters classified as level 3. Input parameters include the historical volatility of AMHL shares, risk-free rate, expected remaining life, expected exercise date and share prices of AMHL at valuation dates. Derivative financial asset Asset Asset Level 3 The fair value is equal to the price paid to the counter party for obtaining the right under the purchase agreement. — 219,615 Subsequent, the fair value is adjusted proportionally for the part of the right consumed. For level 3 financial liability, the sensitivity analysis below represents the potential absolute change in fair value. The favorable and unfavorable effects on the result before taxes, resulting from using reasonably alternative assumptions for the valuation of the option component of the Convertible Loan (FiveT) has been calculated by recalibrating the modes using unobservable inputs based on an average volatility of 5%.

Credit risk Credit risk is managed on a Group basis. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks, as well as from other receivables. The Company’s policy is to invest funds in low risk investments including interest bearing deposits. Other receivables were current as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, not impaired and included only well-known counterparties. The Group has been holding cash and cash equivalents in the Group’s principal operating currencies (CHF, USD and EUR) with international banks of high credit rating. The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the consolidated statement of financial position: December 31, December 31, Financial assets Cash and cash equivalents 11,258,870 1,384,720 Other receivables 10,040 80,040 Total 11,268,910 1,464,760 As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 other receivables consisted in a bank deposit for guaranteeing credit card liabilities. Market risk Currency risk The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various exposures, primarily with respect to US Dollar and Euro. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognized assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations. The summary of quantitative data about the exposure of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities to currency risk was as follows: 2020 2019 in CHF USD EUR USD EUR Cash and cash equivalents 9,214,709 694,287 1,041,695 125,631 Other receivables 479 — 154,063 — Trade and other payables (75,712 ) (397,853 ) (51,527 ) (526,637 ) Accrued expenses (34,648 ) (569,400 ) (750,949 ) (175,826 ) Net statement of financial position exposure -asset/(liability) 9,104,828 (272,966 ) 393,282 (576,832 ) As of December 31, 2020, a 5% increase or decrease in the USD/CHF exchange rate with all other variables held constant would have resulted in a CHF 455,241 (2019: CHF 19,664) increase or decrease in the net result. Also, a 5% increase or decrease in the EUR/CHF exchange rate with all other variables held constant would have resulted in a CHF 13,648 (2019: CHF 28,841) increase or decrease in the net result. The Company has subsidiaries in the United States, Australia and Ireland, whose net assets are exposed to foreign currency translation risk. Due to the small size of the subsidiaries the translation risk is not significant. Capital risk management The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to capital maintenance requirements under local law in the country in which it operates. To ensure that statutory capital requirements are met, the Company monitors capital, at the entity level, on an interim basis as well as annually. From time to time the Company may take appropriate measures or propose capital increases to ensure the necessary capital remains intact. |
