Two new companies (Metodika and Avans Soma) have been integrated into the Carasent group. We have focused on building a company structure where we act as one company and establishing a way of working where new developed features in our products fit in to our common modularized platform. We have also started an initiative (Webdoc X) with the aim of expanding our business with products tailored for the broader market in Europe, where we see a great window of opportunity with our deep knowledge of the healthcare sector and experience of providing value adding solutions. The main goal for Carasent is to provide our customers with the best innovative digital solutions, acting as a one-stop-shop solution provider of an integrated solution for the various needs of the healthcare providers. The response from our customers has been very positive to the communicated "One Carasent" strategy and we will, in collaboration with our customers, work to develop the functionality required to migrate them to the Webdoc platform. Our Target Market The healthcare sector is one of the least developed industries in terms of digitalization, and the sector is in great need of solutions that can increase both efficiency and quality of the business processes to free up resources for care rather than administration. Insights and focus on speeding up digitalization have gained momentum in recent years, and the pandemic has acted as an additional catalyst. Shortcomings as well as potential in many of the business processes have become obvious, increasing both the willingness to invest and the pace of development. The pandemic has affected us short-term as well, in both positive and negative ways. On the positive side, products and services enabling our customers to interact digitally with patients have seen a boost during the pandemic. At the other end of the spectrum, we have customers that have reduced their activities during the year, due to restrictions as well as for priority reasons. We saw a negative effect on our order intake during 2020 and while we signed the contracts in 2021, the implementation process have been delayed due to prioritization of vaccinations. This climate has gradually improved during the fall and we are slowly but steadily returning to a more normal situation. Revenue Growth We have accelerated our growth rates significantly, with revenue growth of 94% during 2021. We grew organically at 30% during the year (constant currency), and the remaining portion of the growth was related to the acquisitions of Avans Soma and Metodika. Customer intake has remained strong, despite sales processes with larger customers being affected by the pandemic, the total number of units (defined as number of physical entities or customers) amounted to 846 at the end of 2021 where 154 units have been added organically during 2021 compared to 91 units in 2020. There is ample room for growth within our core markets where new sales have been generated almost exclusively from word-of-mouth historically. We now see opportunities to increase our Page 4 focus on outbound sales and marketing going forward, as our portfolio of products is highly demanded in the market. In the beginning of 2021, we provided a guidance of 35% organic revenue growth and 40% EBITDA margins for Evimeria and Avans Soma for the full year. In Q3 2021 we revised the revenue guidance to 30 – 35% due to delayed implementation of signed customers affecting license and consulting revenues in the short-term. The reported revenue figures for 2021 was in line with the revised guidance, with revenue growth of 30% and EBITDA margins ended at 39.5% for 2021. Our position and the future In the second quarter we acquired Metodika, a Swedish company that provided us with an attractive customer base and expansion into new geographies and a new segment (inpatient care). In parallel with the acquisition, we completed a successful equity issue raising a total of approximately NOK 368 million. Subsequently, in Q3 we raised an additional NOK 420 million through another equity issue, bringing in Vitruvian Partners as a large shareholder. In January 2022, after the balance sheet date, we announced the acquisition of Medrave a market leader in Scandinavia within quality improvement software for healthcare practices within primary care and secondary outpatient care. Hence, we have executed on our growth strategy and laid the foundation for further growth. We see that Carasent is very well positioned to meet the demand from the market and see great potential ahead in expanding our business geographically, through new segments and adding new products and services. An active M&A agenda, in addition to maintaining our organic growth, will be a key focus for Carasent in the future. We see consolidation opportunities going forward that will help Carasent strengthen our market position as a leading provider of e-health services in Europe. The effects of the pandemic will remain with us for a period going forward, creating a high degree of uncertainty for our customers. The stated effects on delayed implementation and sales processes will impact us during the first half of 2022, but we expect the growth rates and margins to remain robust throughout the year. Given the current situation with easing of restrictions and a return to normal life, we may see a more predictable onboarding of our customer backlog. The ongoing war in Ukraine currently do not directly affect operations, but we monitor the situation closely. Sincerely, Dennis Höjer CEO, Carasent ASA 2021 guidance vs. actuals Evimeria & Avans Soma (NOKm) Initial guidance Updated guidance (as per Q3) 2021A Revenue 123 119 - 123 119 Revenue growth 35% 30 - 35% 30% EBITDA 49.4 47.5 - 49.4 47.0 EBITDA margin 40% 40% 39% Page 5 Director's Report About Carasent ASA Carasent focuses on businesses that develop entrepreneurial and e-health solutions. We believe in innovation that offers a new kind of accessibility and availability for patients and practises, and we offer intellectual and financial capital for participants that wishes to provide high quality services in this area of digital transformation. Carasent consists of several companies but act as one. We share ideas, strengths and experiences that brings new energy to our projects. Our companies stand united on a ground of healthcare and digitization, and we are ambitious and dedicated in our aim to make a difference. Evimeria develops and delivers e-health services to Nordic caregivers. The business is based on the vision of patient-focused care with minimized administration. The core products are the EMR system Webdoc, and Vårdrummet - a digital platform for physician-patient communication. Avans Soma develops and sells digital systems adapted for users in the segments for health care, rehabilitation, and mental illness. Avans Soma currently has 25 employees in offices in Oslo, Bergen and Dale. Avans Soma's portfolio include solutions as Ad Voca, Ad Opus, and Ad Curis. The Swedish based company Metodika is the developer and seller of Metodika EPM, a highly competitive all in one solution for medium sized private clinics and hospitals in Europe. The company was established in 1991, is located in Stockholm and has 22 employees. Medrave is a Scandinavian company with 15 employees, in Sweden and Norway. Since 2007 Medrave focuses on quality improvement software for healthcare practices within primary care and secondary outpatient care, and as of today the solutions are being used by over 260 clients. The acquisition of Medrave was closed in January 2022, after the balance sheet date. 2021 development The effects of the pandemic continued to have both positive and negative impacts. The positive effects remain with an overall growing demand for faster digitization and need for new e-Health services. The negative is the somewhat still delayed sales processes when it comes to larger customers as well as longer implementation cycles due to covid oriented priorities among our customers. We have been taking steps towards “One Carasent” and one platform in line with our communicated strategy through organizational changes, establishing a way of working where new developed features in our products fit in to our common modularized platform. Further strengthening of the organization and architectural changes will be a high priority area during 2022 which will also secure future scalability and flexibility to target new customer segments. In addition to a strong organic development, we continue our focus on evaluating the possibilities of supplementing our business with potential acquisitions that fit into our strategy. Page 6 Long term, we reiterate our market view. The market development, seen from a fundamental perspective - that is, the need for a growing healthcare sector and need for new value-creating and effective digital solutions - is very strong. The background to this is the underlying trends, with a growing aging population and an increased outpatient healthcare in a hard-pressed public sector.

Webdoc X After a preparation phase during 2021, we have made the decision to invest significantly into an EHR platform tailored for the broader European market, Webdoc X. In the spring of 2021, we established a collaboration with the Swedish digital healthcare provider Mindler in their European launch. In parallel with this, we have conducted a comprehensive market research, which confirmed our hypothesis that there is a high degree of privatized healthcare that often lacks solutions to meet the digital demand. The market is ripe for disruption and we now see a window of opportunity. This will require significant investments and has also impacted the capex level during 2021. We aim to launch the product commercially during 2023 and we are building the offering based on our deep industry knowledge. Webdoc Norway The Webdoc platform is now ready for a Norwegian launch for smaller pay-out-of-pocket customers. We have recruited several key personnel for our commercial organization in Norway during Q4 2021 and will continue to strengthen the sales and marketing team with focus on building our pipeline of potential customers in the Norwegian market more aggressively. During the first half of 2022 we will focus on finalizing the required integrations to address the publicly funded customers within our target segments and to secure our first customers of Webdoc in Norway.

Allocation of the result The Board recommends the following allocation of the net result of Carasent ASA. Covid-19 The pandemic has impacted our customers significantly during 2021, and the effects of the pandemic will remain with us for a period going forward. The short-term effects of the pandemic have affected growth negatively during the year. The high vaccinations activity shifted the focus of healthcare providers before summer, and customers continued to prioritize short-term pandemic related activities over changing their EHR system during the fall. This has not only impacted sales processes with larger customers, but also caused delayed implementation of newly signed customers. Long term, we reiterate our market view. The market development, seen from a fundamental perspective - that is, the need for a growing healthcare sector and need for new value- creating and effective digital solutions - is very strong. The background to this is the underlying trends, with a growing aging population and an increased outpatient healthcare in a hard-pressed public sector.

The work of the Board of Directors The Board as approved an updated Board Mandate which provides details for the Board’s work, including a description of roles and responsibilities for both the Chairman, Board Directors and the CEO, the Board Meetings, reporting, confidentiality and documentation. The Board Mandate also includes provisions for agreements with close associates in order to ensure that any such agreement is entered into on arm’s length principle and no unjustified value is transferred from the Company. Any transactions between the Company and shareholders, members of the Board, members of the Executive Management, or close associates of any such party will only be completed if all conditions in the Public Companies Act and the Board Mandate are fulfilled. If relevant, a valuation from an independent third party, not being the Company’s auditor, will be obtained. Any agreement with a close associate will handled and reviewed by at least two Board members with no personal interest in the agreement. Members of the Board and Executive Management are obliged to report if they have a material, direct or indirect, interest in any transaction entered into by the Company. The Board meets regularly both in closed sessions and in face-to-face meetings with the CEO as the Board deems fit. The Board has established an Audit Committee with two Board members and the Company’s General Counsel as secretary. In addition, the CFO and the Company’s auditor participates in the meetings. The Audit Committee has a mandate approved by the Board. The mandate is revised annually during Q2. The Company has established clearly defined roles, responsibilities and tasks for the Board and management. Further, the Board produces an annual plan detailing its role in developing the Company’s strategy as well as the specific objectives for each year. The Board evaluates its work and its competence on an annual basis. Risk Management and Internal Control The Board is responsible for ensuring that management establishes and maintains adequate internal control over financial reporting. Carasent’s internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting, and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. Carasent internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect Carasent’s transactions and dispositions of assets; Page 18 (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded, as necessary, to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and that Carasent’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of Carasent’s Board and Executive Management; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of Carasent’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of the changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. The internal reporting will also include reporting in line with the Company’s ethical guidelines and the guidelines for corporate social responsibility. Carasent’s Board believes Carasent’s system of internal control provides reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. Remuneration of the Board of Directors Compensation for Board members is resolved by the shareholders in the General Meeting and reflects the responsibility, competence, time commitment, and the complexity of the Company’s business. The Annual Report includes information on all remuneration paid to the Board members, and any remuneration in addition to the normal Director’s fee is detailed. Remuneration of Executive Personnel The Policy for remuneration to the senior management in accordance with the new regulations in the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act § 6-16a, was resolved at the Shareholder Meeting on October 27, 2021.

information Carasent ASA (“Carasent” or the “Company”), the parent company of the Carasent Group (the “Group”) is a public Company registered in Norway and traded on the Oslo Stock Exchange (ticker: CARA) with a registered business address Øvre Slottsgate 2B, Oslo, Norway. The consolidated financial statements for the year ended 2021 were approved by the Board of Directors for publication on 29 March 2022. Note 2 – General Accounting Principles Basis of Preparation The consolidated financial statements of the Carasent Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as adopted by the EU. The consolidated figures are presented in NOK rounded to the nearest thousands. As a result of rounding adjustments, amounts and percentages may not add up to the total. The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. Basis for Consolidation Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity, and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances, and unrealized gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Figures from subsidiaries with different accounting policies are amended to ensure consistent accounting policies for the Group. If the Group loses control over a subsidiary it derecognizes the assets, liabilities, and non- controlling interest, and reclassifies to profit or loss, or transfers directly to retained earnings as appropriate, the amounts recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss) in relation to the subsidiary. Page 28 The Group has the following subsidiaries as of 31 December 2021: Foreign currency translation The consolidated financial statements are presented in NOK, which is Carasent ASA’s functional currency. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Group’s entities at their respective functional currency spot rates at the date the transaction first qualifies for recognition. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the functional currency spot rates of exchange at the reporting date. Differences arising on settlement or translation of monetary items are recognised in profit or loss. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. The Group has foreign entities with functional currency other than NOK. At the reporting date, the assets, and liabilities of foreign entities with functional currencies other than NOK are translated into NOK at the rate of exchange at the reporting date and their income statements are translated at the average exchange rates per year. The translation differences arising from the translation are recognised in other comprehensive income until the disposal of the net investment, at which time they are recognised in the income statement. Classification of current and non-current items An asset is classified as current when it is expected to be realised or sold, or to be used in the Group’s normal operating cycle or falls due or is expected to be realized within 12 months after the end of the reporting period. Other assets are classified as non-current. Liabilities are classified as current when they are expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle of the Group or are expected to be settled within 12 months of the end of the reporting period, or if the Group does not have an unconditional right to postpone settlement for at least 12 months after the balance sheet date. Financial assets All financial assets are recognised initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Page 29 Events after the Balance Sheet Date Events after the reporting period related to the group’s financial position at the end of the reporting period, are considered in the financial statements. Events after the reporting period that have no effect on the group’s financial position at the end of the reporting period, but will have effect on future financial position, are disclosed if the future effect is material. Cash Flow Statement The cash flow statement is presented using the indirect method. Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods. The Group identified the following material estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year: • Purchase price allocation and excess values see note 3 for further information. • Impairment, see note 12 for further information. • Valuation of stock option liabilities, see note 18 for further information. Page 30 Note 3 – Business Combination Accounting Principles The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations. The consideration transferred in a business combination comprises the fair values of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquired business, equity interests issued by the Group, fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement and fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary. Identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Goodwill arising on acquisition is recognized as an asset measured at the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the fair value of any previously held equity interests and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquired entity over the net amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the acquired entity’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities exceeds the total consideration of the business combination, the excess is recognized in the statement of profit or loss immediately. Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions. Contingent consideration classified as a financial liability are subsequently re-measured to fair value with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss. Acquisition of Metodika AB Carasent ASA acquired the Swedish company Metodika AB ("Metodika") on May 25, 2021. Metodika is a leading provider of Enterprise Practice Management (EPM) solutions to independent hospitals and clinics across 10 European countries. The consideration was NOK 111 million, of which NOK 90.8 million was settled in cash and the remaining in issuance of 588,235 shares to the previous owners of Metodika to a fair value per share of NOK 34. Significant estimates The acquisitions required the use of critical judgements and significant estimates when identifying and valuing intangible assets. For Metodika two intangible assets were identified: technology and customer relationship. The relief-from-royalty method have been applied to measure the fair value of the technology. The relief-from-royalty method considers the discounted estimated royalty payments that are expected to be avoided as a result of the patents being owned. The valuation is based on projected cash flows for the next five years, which includes estimated revenue growth. These cash flows are adjusted for assumptions about churn, attrition and multiplied by a royalty rate of 12% (cost saving from owning the technology). These cost savings are discounted using a cost of capital rate of 9%. The technology is assumed to have a useful life of five years. Page 31 The customer relationships are valued using Multi-period Excess Earnings Method (MEEM). The principle is that the value of the intangible asset is equal to the present value of the after-tax cash flows attributable to the intangible assets only. The valuation is based on projected cash flows for the next eight years. These cash flows are adjusted for contributory asset charges (CAC). Churn is estimated to 14%. The cash flows are discounted using a 10% discount rate. The customer relationships are assumed to have a useful life of seven years. Purchase price allocation - assets acquired and liabilities assumed The amounts recognized at the date of acquisitions in respect of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are set out in the table below: Goodwill from the acquisition of Metodika represents expected synergies in the Group and will form a separate cash generating unit. Acquisition costs of NOK 3.95 million arose as a result of the transactions. These have been recognized as part of other operating expenses in the statement of statement of income.

If the acquisitions of Metodika had occurred on 1 January 2021, the proforma revenue for the Group could have been NOK 144.2 million and the Group’s loss could have been NOK 4.1 million. Acquistion of Avans Soma Holding AS Carasent ASA acquired the Norwegian group Avans Soma Holding AS ("Avans Soma") at 10 December 2020. Avans Soma is a developer of leading medical record systems and IT solutions in the Norwegian health care market. The consideration was NOK 126.7 million, of which NOK 61.3 million was settled in cash and the remaining in issuance of 2,211,191 shares to the previous owner of Avans Soma. The shares were issued 10 December 2020 at a stock price of NOK 29.6. Significant estimates The acquisitions required the use of critical judgements and significant estimates when identifying and valuing intangible assets. For Avans Soma Holding AS two intangible assets were identified: technology and customer relationship. The relief-from-royalty method have been applied to measure the fair value of the technology. The relief-from-royalty method considers the discounted estimated royalty payments that are expected to be avoided as a result of the patents being owned. The valuation is based on projected cash flows for the next 10 years, which includes estimated revenue growth. These cash flows are adjusted for assumptions about churn, attrition and multiplied by a royalty rate of 15% (cost saving from owning the technology). These cost savings are discounted using a cost of capital rate of 9%. The technology are assumed to have a useful life of seven years. The customer relationships are valued using Multi-period Excess Earnings Method (MEEM). The principle is that the value of the intangible asset is equal to the present value of the after-tax cash flows attributable to the intangible assets only. The valuation is based on projected cash flows for the next 10 years. These cash flows are adjusted for contributory asset charges (CAC). Churn is estimated to 10%. The cash flows are discounted using a 10% discount rate. The customer relationships are assumed to have a useful life of ten years. Page 33 Purchase price allocation - assets acquired and liabilities assumed The amounts recognized at the date of acquisitions in respect of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are set out in the table below: Goodwill from the acquisition of Avans Soma represents expected synergies in the Group and will form a separate cash generating unit.

The Group has determined that the Board of Directors are the chief operating decision maker. The segment information is reported in accordance with the reporting to the Board of Directors (the chief operating decision makers) and is consistent with financial information used for assessing performance and supporting the Group’s direction and strategy, resource allocation and acquisition activities. The Group has identified three reportable segments in 2021. Evimeria segment Evimeria is a software and electronic health services provider in the Swedish healthcare sector. The segment generates revenue from selling an electronic medical record (EMR) system and integrated services (partly from third-party developers) to customers in the healthcare sector. Evimeria’s Webdoc technology is a web-based care management system for health professionals which reduces the risk of resource-intensive routines and makes it easier to focus on the core business. Evimeria’s Vårdrummet solution offers a digital platform for interactive health care. It enables healthcare providers to safely communicate with their patients via digital services such as video and chat. It also allows the patient to participate more actively in his or her own care, through health declarations and/or online booking. Avans Soma segment Avans Soma is a developer of leading medical record systems and IT solutions in the Norwegian healthcare sector. The segment generates revenue from selling an electronic medical record (EMR) system and healthcare products for social care and mental illness rehabilitation. Metodika segment Metodika is a software provider that develops and provides Enterprise Practice Management (EPM) solutions to independent hospitals and clinics across Europe. The segment primarily generates revenue from selling an electronic medical record (EMR) system to private hospitals. Additionally, the segment provides add-on services for its maintenance agreements and consulting work based on customer demand. Other Other includes results from the holding company Carasent ASA and any effects related to eliminations.

Tax is recognized in the profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss) or directly in equity. Current tax The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in profit or loss because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated on the basis of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statement and their tax basis, together with tax losses carried forward at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated based on the tax rates and tax legislation that are expected to apply when the assets are realized or the liabilities are settled, based on the tax rates and tax legislation that have been enacted or substantially enacted on the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available, against which the assets can be utilized. Part of the basis for recognising deferred tax assets is based on applying the loss carried forward against future taxable income in the group, which requires use of estimates for calculating future taxable income. Deferred tax assets are not recognised for entities with longer periods of losses unless there is convincing evidence of recoverability. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred taxes assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable entity. The entities included in the consolidated financial statements are subject to income tax in the countries where they are domiciled.

The tax loss has no expiry date. Based on the current operations in Norway there is no convincing evidence that this deferred tax asset can be utilized. Consequently, the deferred tax asset has not been recognized. Reconciliation of effective tax rate: The Group’s effective tax rate is impacted by significant permanent differences related to transaction costs and unrecognized deferred tax assets.

The calculation of diluted earnings per share is consistent with the calculation of the basic earnings per share, but at the same time gives effect to all dilutive potential ordinary shares that were outstanding during the period, by adjusting the profit/loss and the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential shares, for example: • The profit or loss for the period attributable to shares is adjusted for changes in profit or loss that would result from the conversion of the dilutive potential ordinary shares. • The weighted average number of shares is increased by the weighted average number of additional ordinary shares that would have been outstanding, assuming the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

Goodwill is initially measured at the excess of the consideration over of the acquiree in excess of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. Goodwill does not generate cash flows independently of other assets or groups of assets and is allocated to the cash-generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination that gave rise to the goodwill. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or group of assets. The Group has identified three cash-generating units for the purpose of goodwill testing: Evimeria (acquired in 2018), Avans Soma (acquired in the end of 2020) and Metodika (acquired in May 2021). Impairment of assets Cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated, are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if there is any indication that the cash-generating unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount of the unit, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period. Other assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Intangible assets not yet brought into use are assessed for impairment annually. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the group determines the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value, less costs to sell, and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value, using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The Group’s Goodwill relates to the following: (Amounts in NOK 1 000) 2020 Acquisition Exchange rate differences 2021 Evimeria 65 174 - (4 542) 60 632 Avans Soma 105 165 - - 105 165 Metodika - 109 210 (3 017) 106 193 Total 170 339 109 210 (7 559) 271 990 Page 47 As part of the Group’s annual review process, it assesses whether or not acquired goodwill or other non-current assets have been impaired. The estimate reflects the Group’s assessment of the value of the cash-generating unit to which the goodwill is allocated, or the non-current assets are associated. Calculating the value in use requires the Group to estimate the expected cash flows from the cash- generating units and also to choose a suitable pre-tax discount rate in order to calculate the present value of cash flow. The Group allocates its non-current assets on a consolidated basis to the three cash generating units. The recoverable amount for the cash generating unit has been determined based on a value in use calculation using cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by senior management covering a five-year period and beyond five year a perpetual growth rate of future cash flow has been set to 2%. The pre-tax discount rate applied to cash flow projections was 8.7%. Key assumptions used in value in use calculations for the Group for December 31, 2021. The following describes each key assumption on which management has based its cash flow projections to undertake impairment testing: Revenues – Revenue growth is based on a combination of historical sales and market opportunities in both existing and new markets. EBIT Margin – EBIT Margin is based on historical performance and the scalability effect from the implementation of new units in the "Carasent model" where synergies will be captured. Discount rate – To determine the present value of the future cash flows, the Group has used the CAPM-formula where input is based on observable public information. Pre-Tax Discount Rates – To determine the present value of the future cash flows, the Group has used a WACC model (Weighted Average Cost of Capital). The Group has considered that the discount rate is attributable to all CGU because of the similarities between the markets. Based on the test, there is no need of impairment as the recoverable amount (value in use) exceeds the carrying amount in all CGUs. The Group has performed a sensitivity analysis for each CGU to substantiate the conclusion. For Evimeria forecasted EBIT can decrease by 91% before headroom turns negative, all else equal. The WACC can be 166% before headroom turns negative, all else equal. For Avans Soma forecasted EBIT can decrease by 97% before headroom turns negative, all else equal. The WACC can be 26.4% before headroom turns negative, all else equal. For Metodika forecasted EBIT can decrease by 74% before headroom turns negative, all else equal. The WACC can be 26.3% before headroom turns negative, all else equal. Page 48 Note 13 – Intangible Assets Accounting Principles Generally, intangible assets are recognized in the balance sheet if it is probable that there are future economic benefits that can be attributed to the asset which is owned by the Group, and the asset’s cost can be reasonably estimated. Intangible assets are recorded at cost. Intangible assets with a finite useful life are amortized over the useful life. Amortization is carried out using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life. The amortization estimates and method is subject to an annual assessment based on the future economic benefits. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but impairment losses are recognized if the recoverable amount is less than the current carrying value. The recoverable amount is calculated each year or if there are any indications of a decrease of value. Expenditures on development activities are capitalized, if, and only if, all of the following conditions have been demonstrated: • The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; • The intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; • The ability to use or sell the intangible asset; • How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; • The availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and • The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development Capitalized development costs include costs directly attributable to development of the intangible, such as personnel expenses and consultancy services. Capitalized developments are related to the new platform for European market, Webdoc X, and the ongoing Norwegian expansion for Webdoc. Please see Director's report for further information.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the assets’ expected useful life and adjusted for any impairment charges. Ordinary repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the disposal proceeds with the carrying amount and are included in operating profit. Major assets with different expected useful lives are reported as separate components. Tangible assets are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. The difference between the asset’s carrying amount and its recoverable amount is recognized in the profit or loss statement as an impairment loss. Tangible assets that have suffered impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date. The following table summarizes the activity of the Group’s tangible assets: (Amounts in NOK 1 000) Tools and equipment Cost Cost at 31 December 2019 1 501 Additions 514 Acquisition of business - Exchange differences 54 Cost at 31 December 2020 2 069 Additions 802 Acquisition of business 322 Exchange differences (95) Cost at 31 December 2021 3 098 Amortization and impairment Accumulated at 31 December 2019 (411) Amortization for the year (460) Accumulated at 31 December 2020 (871) Amortization for the year (721) Accumulated at 31 December 2021 (1 592) Carrying amount at 31 December 2020 1 198 Carrying amount at 31 December 2021 1 507 Amortization method Straight-line 3-5 years Page 51 Note 15 – Customer Receivables Accounting Principles Customer receivables are initially measured at fair value. Customer receivables are non-interest bearing and trading terms are up to 30 days and therefore classified as current. The receivables are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, if the amortization effect is material, less loss allowance. Due to the short-term nature of the trade receivables, their carrying amount is considered to be the same as the transaction price. Loss allowance and risk exposure The Group applies the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables. The expected loss rates are based on payments profiles and customer contracts in the previous years. Receivables are grouped into categories and the expected loss rates reflect the Group's ability on collecting once receivables are overdue. The table below sets forth the Group’s customer receivables as of December 31, 2021 and 2020: 31 December 2021 (Amounts in NOK 1 000) Current More than 30 days past due More than 60 days past due More than 120 days past due Total Expected loss rate 0.0 % 2.3 % 25.5 % 49.9 % 0.7 % Gross carrying amount - trade receivables 19 817 88 123 197 20 224 Loss allowance - trade receivables 0 2 31 98 132 31 December 2020 (Amounts in NOK 1 000) Current More than 30 days past due More than 60 days past due More than 120 days past due Total Expected loss rate 0.4 % 1.2 % 20.7 % (37.4)% 0.7 % Gross carrying amount - trade receivables 10 743 399 66 (53) 11 155 Loss allowance - trade receivables 45 5 14 20 83 (Amounts in NOK 1 000) Loss reserves December 31, 2019 77 Change in reserve 6 December 31, 2020 83 Change in reserve 48 December 31, 2021 132 Page 52 Note 16 – Cash and Cash equivalents Accounting Principles Cash and cash equivalents include bank deposits. Cash and cash equivalents in foreign currencies are translated at closing rate. The following table summarizes the Group’s Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash balances held by the Group’s bank earns interest at a floating rate based on average daily balances: Note 17 – Leases Accounting Principles Contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. The Group allocates the consideration in the contract to the lease and non-lease components based on their relative stand-alone prices. The lease agreements do not impose any covenants. Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the fixed payments. The lease payments are discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions. To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Group uses a build-up approach that starts with a risk-free interest rate similar to the length of the lease adjusted for margin relevant for the company and the assets held by the Group. The Group is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index, which are not included in the lease liability until they take effect. When adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate take effect, the lease liability is reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset. Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability, lease payments made at or before the commencement day, less any lease incentives received and any initial direct costs. Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. The right-of-use assets are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount.

Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Low-value assets comprise IT equipment and small items of office furniture.

The transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition are also recognized for all financial liabilities that are not subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss. Trade payables and other non- derivative financial liabilities are generally measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation underlying the liability is discharged, canceled or expired. The fair value of financial instruments is based on quoted prices as at the balance sheet date in an active market, if such markets exist. If an active market does not exist, fair value is established by using valuation techniques that are expected to provide a reliable estimate of the fair value. Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified according to the valuation method: • Level 1: Valuation based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2: Valuation based on inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices). • Level 3: Valuation based on inputs for the asset or liability that are unobservable market data. If one or more of the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3. Changes in fair value are presented in profit or loss in the line-item Other Financial (Income)/ Expenses. As announced on November 15, 2019, the Board in Carasent ASA approved a stock option program for up to 2 million shares. The options are structured as warrants based on market value, will have a strike of price of NOK 14,47 with a 3-year term. When exercised, the Board has the right to pay the option holder cash instead of issue shares. The initial market value of the options was calculated to NOK 1,39 per option and have been fully distributed. All 2 million options were subscribed and has been paid for by the option holder. A total of 1 528 562 options were subscribed for by employees and the remaining by primary insiders. The estimated fair value of the stock option when issued was NOK 1.39. As of 31 December 2021, the fair value of the stock option was estimated to NOK 23.37 per warrant, resulting in a financial liability of NOK 46.2 million for the Company which are presented as current liability since the expiration date is within 12 months. Based on the 2 million options issued, the change in fair value (Amounts in NOK 1 000) 2021 2020 Depreciation of right of use asset 5 072 3 693 Interest expense 630 617 Expenses relating to short-term and low value leases 1 066 369 Total expenses for lease 6 767 4 680 Page 55 resulted in NOK 5 million expense in the 12 months ending 31 December 2021 (NOK 38.4 million expense in 12 months ending 31 December 2020). There were no further conditions associated with the warrants. Significant estimates The fair value of the warrants are measured according to level 3. The basis for fair value is the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following parameters are used as basis for the calculation: The fair value will increase or decrease with the fluctuation of the share price. The assumptions in the model relates to volatility and the liquidity discount.

The Group primarily operates in Norway and Sweden, with a few customers in several other European countries. With different functional currencies, the Group might be exposed to currency gains and losses on debt and receivables between the companies, which will affect its reported profit or loss. Currently there are limited exposure in the Group for receivables and liabilities denominated in a currency different from the different companies own functional currency. The Group is exposed to SEK, EUR, GBP and DKK. The currency exposure related to customers outside the Nordics is insignificant. Credit Risk The Group’s credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents as well as outstanding receivables. The Group has no material credit risk due to the nature of the business and its customers within the health care industry. Trade receivables are paid upfront and have maximum 30 days payment term. Liquidity Risk The Group monitors liquidity centrally across the group. It is the Group’s strategy to have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to at any time fund operations and investments according to the Group’s strategic plans. The liquidity is managed through monthly cash flow forecasts based on net income, capital expenditures and net working capital. Currently, the Group has a solid cash position to maintain its obligations.

The Group is focused on growing organically and through acquisitions and has historically financed these acquisitions through a combination of cash from the balance sheet and share issuance. The Group manages its capital structure in light of changes in economic and actual conditions, and the development in the Group's underlying business. The Group’s equity ratio was 90% with a cash balance of NOK 884 million as per 31.12.2021. The Group does not have material interest-bearing loans. Note 23 – Events after the Balance Sheet Date Acquisition of Medrave After the balance sheet date, Carasent ASA completed the acquisition of Medrave Software AB ("Medrave") and increased the share capital by issuing consideration shares in relation to the acquisition. The acquisition was settled on January 11, 2022 for a purchase price of SEK 134 million of which SEK 110 million was settled in cash and SEK 24 million was settled by a seller's credit to be offset by issuance of consideration shares reinvested by key employees with subscription price of NOK 37.43 per share. The share capital will be increased by NOK 835,684.81, divided into 627,391 shares, each with a nominal value of NOK 1.332. Significant estimates The acquisitions required the use of critical judgements and significant estimates when identifying and valuing intangible assets. For Medrave two intangible assets were identified: technology and customer relationship. The relief-from-royalty method have been applied to measure the fair value of the technology. The relief-from-royalty method considers the discounted estimated royalty payments that are expected to be avoided as a result of the patents being owned. The valuation is based on projected cash flows for the next five years, which includes estimated revenue growth. These cash flows are adjusted for assumptions about churn, attrition and multiplied by a royalty rate of 13.8% (cost saving from owning the technology). These cost savings are discounted using a cost of capital rate of 9%. The technology is assumed to have a useful life of ten years. The customer relationships are valued using Multi-period Excess Earnings Method (MEEM). The principle is that the value of the intangible asset is equal to the present value of the after-tax cash flows attributable to the intangible assets only. The valuation is based on projected cash flows for the next eight years. These cash flows are adjusted for contributory asset charges (CAC). Churn is estimated to 8%. The cash flows are discounted using a 9% discount rate. The customer relationships are assumed to have a useful life of 12.5 years. Page 62 Preliminary purchase price allocation - assets acquired and liabilities assumed The amounts recognized at the date of acquisitions in respect of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are set out in the table below: This purchase price allocation is still preliminary and based on local GAAP and differences to IFRS is not taken into account.

The shares was offered at a price based on the volume weighted average share price during the days of the subscription period, with a discount of 20%, which is calculated to be NOK 21,64. A total of 253 005 shares were subscribed for by the employees. The shares are subject to a two-year lock-up. Following the expiry of the lock-up period, the employees will have the right to receive 1 bonus (matching) share (subject to the payment of the nominal value per share only) per 3 shares purchased under the Employee Investment Matching Program.

Corporate Information Carasent ASA is a public Company registered in Norway. The Company’s registered business address at Øvre Slottsgate 2B, 0157 Oslo, Norway. Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis for Preparation The financial statements of Carasent ASA are prepared in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act of 1998 and Norwegian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The figures are presented in NOK rounded to the nearest thousands. As a result of rounding adjustments, amounts and percentages may not add up to the total. The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. Functional Currency and Presentation Currency The Company’s functional currency and presentation currency is NOK. Investment in Subsidiaries Investments in Subsidiaries are valued using the cost method in the Company accounts. The investment is valued as the cost of acquiring shares in the subsidiary, providing a write down is not required. A write down to fair value will be made if the reduction in value is caused by circumstances which may not be regarded as incidental and deemed necessary by generally accepted accounting principles. Write downs are reversed when the cause for the initial write down is no longer present. Dividends and other distributions are recognized in the same year as appropriated in the subsidiary accounts. If dividends exceed withheld profits after acquisition, the excess amount represents reimbursement of invested capital, and the distribution will be subtracted from the value of the acquisition in the balance sheet. Receivables Intercompany receivables are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Other debtors are stated at face value and reduced by a provision for anticipated losses. The provision is made on the basis of individual evaluations. Revenue Recognition Carasent ASA is a holding company. The company is performing certain services on behalf of subsidiaries, and management fee for these services are recognized when services have been delivered. General Valuation Rules for Classification of Assets and Liabilities Current assets and liabilities include balances typically due within one year. All other balances are classified as non-current assets and other long-term debt. Current assets are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Short-term debt is stated at the historical nominal value. Fixed assets Page 72 are valued at cost but written down to realizable value if the decline in value is expected to be permanent. Long-term debt is disclosed at the historical nominal value. Measurement of stock options The stock options are measured according to its fair value. Changes in fair value are presented in profit or loss in the line-item Financial expenses. Other Receivables Other debtors are stated at face value and reduced by a provision for anticipated losses. The provision is made on the basis of individual evaluations of each customer. Monetary Items in Foreign Currencies Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate applicable on the balance sheet date. Income Taxes The tax expense in the income statement includes taxes payable on the ordinary result for the period as well as the change in deferred tax. Deferred tax is calculated with a nominal tax rate on the temporary differences between the recorded values and tax values, as well as on any tax loss carry-forwards at the balance sheet date. Any temporary differences increasing or reducing taxes that will or may reverse in the same period are netted. The net deferred tax benefit is recorded as an asset if it is regarded as likely that the Company will be able to realize the benefit through future earnings or realistic tax efficient planning. Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the interim balance sheet and the disclosure on the balance sheet date. Actual results can differ from these estimates. The recognition of the stock options involves estimates of fair value, see note 6 Cash Flow Statement The cash flow statement is prepared in accordance with the indirect method. Included in cash and cash equivalents are bank deposits and cash on hand. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at the market value on the balance sheet date.

In our opinion: • the financial statements comply with applicable statutory requirements, • the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2021, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and accounting standards and practices generally accepted in Norway, and • the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2021, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU. Our opinion is consistent with our additional report to the Audit Committee. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company and the Group as required by laws and regulations and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. To the best of our knowledge and belief, no prohibited non-audit services referred to in the Audit Regulation (537/2014) Article 5.1 have been provided. We have been the auditor of the Company for 4 years from the election by the general meeting of the shareholders on 24 July 2018 for the accounting year 2018. Independent Auditor's Report - Carasent ASA 2 Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Acquisition of Metodika AB Refer to Note 3 Business Combinations in the Group financial statements, and the Board of Directors report The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit On 25 May 2021 the Group entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of the shares in Metodika AB, a company based in Sweden. The acquisition price of NOK 111 million was settled partly with cash and partly by share consideration. Management identified the acquired assets and liabilities, and estimated their fair value. As a result of the allocation of the acquisition price, the Group recognized goodwill of NOK 109.2 million. Acquisition accounting is considered a key audit matter due to the high degree of management’s judgment involved. The key judgments and considerations applied by management were: • The identification, measurement and allocation of fair values of assets and liabilities acquired, and • The preparation of disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit procedures in this area included: • Reading the related share purchase agreement; • Obtaining the transaction documents, tracing payments to bank statements and assessing the fair value of the share consideration; • Understanding and assessing management’s process for identification of the acquired assets and liabilities; • With assistance from our KPMG valuation specialists, evaluating and challenging management’s valuation methods and assumptions applied in determining the fair values of the acquired assets; and • Assessing the appropriateness of the disclosures in the consolidated financial statements with reference to the share purchase agreement and the purchase price allocation. Other Information The Board of Directors and the Managing Director (management) are responsible for the information in the Board of Directors’ report and the other information accompanying the financial statements. The other information comprises information in the annual report, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the information in the Board of Directors’ report nor the other information accompanying the financial statements. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the Board of Directors’ report and the other information accompanying the financial statements. The purpose is to consider if there is material inconsistency between the Board of Directors’ report and the other information accompanying the financial statements and the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or whether the Board of Directors’ report and the other accompanying information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. We are required to report if there is a material misstatement in the Board of Directors’ report or the other information accompanying the financial statements. We have nothing to report in this regard. Independent Auditor's Report - Carasent ASA 3 Based on our knowledge obtained in the audit, it is our opinion that the Board of Directors’ report • is consistent with the financial statements and • contains the information required by applicable legal requirements. Our opinion on the Board of Director’s report applies correspondingly to the statements on Corporate Governance and Corporate Social Responsibility. Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and accounting standards and practices generally accepted in Norway, and for the preparation and true and fair view of the consolidated financial statements of the Group in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s and the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern. The financial statements of the Company use the going concern basis of accounting insofar as it is not likely that the enterprise will cease operations. The consolidated financial statements of the Group use the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: • identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. We design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. • obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's or the Group's internal control. • evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. • conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting, and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company and the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material Independent Auditor's Report - Carasent ASA 4 uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company and the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. • evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves a true and fair view. • obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with the Board of Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the Audit Committee with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards. From the matters communicated with the Board of Directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements Report on compliance with Regulation on European Single Electronic Format (ESEF) Opinion We have performed an assurance engagement to obtain reasonable assurance that the financial statements with file name 5967007LIEEXZXI9ZS60-2021-12-31-en have been prepared in accordance with Section 5-5 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act (Verdipapirhandelloven) and the accompanying Regulation on European Single Electronic Format (ESEF). In our opinion, the financial statements have been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the requirements of ESEF. Management’s Responsibilities Management is responsible for preparing, tagging and publishing the financial statements in the single electronic reporting format required in ESEF. This responsibility comprises an adequate process and the internal control procedures which management determines is necessary for the preparation, tagging and publication of the financial statements. Auditor’s Responsibilities Our responsibility is to express an opinion on whether the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with ESEF. We conducted our work in accordance with the International Standard for Assurance Engagements (ISAE) 3000 – “Assurance engagements other than audits or reviews of historical financial information”. The standard requires us to plan and perform procedures to obtain reasonable assurance that the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the European Single Electronic Format. Independent Auditor's Report - Carasent ASA 5 As part of our work, we performed procedures to obtain an understanding of the company’s processes for preparing its financial statements in the European Single Electronic Format. We evaluated the completeness and accuracy of the iXBRL tagging and assessed management’s use of judgement. Our work comprised reconciliation of the financial statements tagged under the European Single Electronic Format with the audited financial statements in human-readable format. We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
