On 14 June 2024, KMC Properties ASA announced that it had entered into an agreement with Logistea AB, listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, whereby Logistea acquired KMC Properties HoldCo AS a wholly owned subsidiary of KMC Properties group (the transaction), and hence, acquiring all of the operations in the KMC Properties group. Prior to the transaction, all operations in KMC Properties ASA were transferred to KMC Properties HoldCo AS and there were no remaining employees or operations in KMC Properties ASA.
Both companies in the transaction were valued based on reported net asset value as of 31 March 2024, adjusted for subsequent events. Payment for the transaction was settled in newly issued shares in Logistea AB. KMC Properties ASA received both class A and B shares, pro-rata to the split of class A and B shares in Logistea AB, and the shares were distributed as dividends to KMC Properties ASA's shareholders during the second half of 2024.
The transaction was approved at KMC Properties ASA's Extraordinary General Meeting held on 5 July 2024 and at Logistea AB's Extraordinary General Meeting held on 9 July 2024.
The following financial review is based on the consolidated financial statements of KMC Properties ASA and its subsidiaries. The company had subsidiaries until 11 July 2024. The statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Profit and loss must be seen in the context of the fact that in 2024 there were six months of operations for the property business compared to a full year in 2024. All income and expenses in 2024 are considered to be related to the transaction and therefore recognised as discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
KMC Properties had a total rental income of NOK 238 million for 2024 compared to NOK 409 million in 2023. Administration expenses amounted to NOK 39 million for 2024, compared to NOK 56 million for 2023.
Net realised financials amounted to negative NOK 113 million for 2024 compared to negative NOK 200 million last year.
KMC Properties recorded net income from property management of NOK 83 million for 2024, compared to NOK 149 million for 2023.
Gain from sale from business amounted to NOK 736 million for 2024, compared to NOK 0 million in 2023
Net unrealised financials amounted to negative NOK 65 million for 2024 compared to negative NOK 18 million last year. The amount consists primarily of foreign exchange gains and losses, including such gains and losses on intercompany balances, and amortisation of debt issue costs.
Change in the value of financial instruments was NOK 27 million for 2024 compared to negative NOK 65 million for the previous year, reflecting value changes in interest swaps and currency swaps.
Change in value of investment property was NOK 120 million for 2024 compared to negative NOK 117 million increase for the previous year
Tax expense for 2024 was NOK 37 million, of which NOK 7 million is tax payable and the remaining NOK 30 million is change in deferred tax. For 2023, the tax expense was NOK 26 million.
Net profit was NOK 864 million for 2024 and negative NOK 78 million for 2023, while total comprehensive income came in at NOK 859 million for 2024 and NOK 1 million for 2023.
Operating activities generated a cash inflow of NOK 165 million for 2024 and NOK 357 million for 2023.
Investment activities, including investments in upgrade projects and new facilities, as well as acquisitions of new properties, and the cash effect of transaction with Logistea generated a cash outflow of NOK 764 million for 2024 and NOK 766 million for 2023.
Financing activities led to a cash inflow of NOK 332 million for 2024 due to an increase in interest bearing debt and equity issues. For 2023, financing activities led to a cash inflow of NOK 510 million.
On 31 December 2024, other assets consisted primarily NOK 6 million in cash and cash equivalents and non-current liabilities consisted of trade payables of NOK 1 million.
Total equity was NOK 6 million on 31 December 2024, representing an equity ratio of 91 per cent.
The parent company had a net profit of NOK 910 million, mainly due to a gain of NOK 914 MNOK relating to the sale of KMC Properties Holdco AS. As a comparison, the parent company had a loss before taxes of NOK 2 million for 2023.
The parent company had a net change in cash and cash equivalents of negative NOK 38 MNOK in 2024, compared to NOK 33 MNOK for 2023. Cash and cash equivalents on closing date in 2024 was NOK 6 million compared to NOK 45 million in 2023.
During the financial year, all subsidiaries have been sold. The Company/Group has since not engaged in new business activities. Cash reserves are limited, with ongoing expenses and no revenue, resulting in negative cash flow. These events or conditions, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern which is dependent on the successful raising of additional capital and the company's ability to execute any future business activities.
The board of directors will continue to monitor the financial situation and take necessary actions to address these challenges. However, the uncertainty surrounding the Company's ability to raise the necessary funds makes the going concern assumption subject to risk.
KMC Properties ASA is listed on the Oslo Børs, the Oslo Stock Exchange, under the ticker KMCP. The shares are registered in the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (VPS). The company's registrar is DNB Markets. The shares carry the securities number ISIN NO 001 0360175. For more information, reference is made to note 12 in the financial statement.
On February 19, 2025, KMC Properties ASA announced that Jonas Grandér and Gabriel Cronstedt had decided to resign from the board of directors and the nomination committee, respectively, due to Nordika owning less than 5% of the total outstanding shares and votes in the Company.
Following, on February 21 2025 KMC Properties ASA announced that Marianne Bekken, had in consultation with the board and the nomination committee decided to step down from the board to ensure that the composition of the Board complies with the gender requirements in the Norwegian Public Limited Liability Companies Act.
Following Jonas Grandér and Marianne Bekken's resignations, the board comprises of Bjørnar André Ulstein (chair), Hege Buer and Mia Arnhult. The nomination committee will comprise Finn Haugan and Andreas Akselsen following Gabriel Cronstedt's resignation.
Beyond the risk of going concern and based on the fact that the company has no activity as of December 31, 2024, the board has not identified any other material risks.
There were no employees in the company at the end of the year.
There were no serious work-related accidents in 2024 or 2023. Sick leave in KMC Properties was 0 per cent in 2024, compared to 1 per cent in 2023.
KMC Properties is committed to ensuring that people with different backgrounds, irrespective of ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or age, should all have the same opportunities for work and career development at the company.
KMC Properties takes its social responsibility seriously. In addition to ensuring that the work is carried out safely this involves respecting the freedom of association and not accepting any form of forced labour, child labour or workrelated discrimination. Since the Group has no operations, the company does not affect the external environment

The board has adopted a corporate governance policy document addressing the framework of guidelines and principles regulating the interaction between the shareholders, the board, and the Chief Executive Officer (the CEO). The policy is based on the Norwegian Code of Practice (the Code) for Corporate Governance issued by the Norwegian Corporate Governance Board. The objective of the Code is that companies listed on regulated markets in Norway will practice corporate governance that regulates the division of roles between shareholders, the board and executive management more comprehensively than is required by legislation. The board and executive management perform an annual assessment of its principles for corporate governance.

The company is subject to section 3-3b of the Norwegian Accounting Act, which requires the company to disclose certain corporate governance related information annually. In addition, the Issuers Rules of Oslo Børs, covered by the Oslo Rulebook II chapter 4.5 requires listed companies to publish an annual statement of its principles and practices with respect to corporate governance, covering every section of the latest version of the Code.

KMC Properties seeks to comply with the current code of practice, issued on 14 October 2021. The Code is available at www.nues.no/english.

KMC Properties ASA ("the Company") is listed on Oslo Stock Exchange with the ticker KMCP. The Company and its subsidiaries ("the Group") business idea is to acquire and manage commercial industry and logistics properties.
The holding company, KMC Properties ASA, is a public limited liability company with headquarters in Trondheim, Norway.
The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Company's Board on 27 March 2025.
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting standards as adopted by the EU, as well as additional Norwegian reporting requirements pursuant to the Norwegian Accounting Act. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company.
Acquired properties are included in the financial statements from the date of acquisition. Management makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The accounting estimates will by definition seldom be fully in accordance with the final outcome. As of year-end 2023 the significant judgements related to the fair value estimates for investment property. As of year-end 2024, there are no critical estimates, and the only significant judgement relates to the potential contingent liability. See note 6 for additional information.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Norwegian kroner (NOK). The majority of the note disclosures are presented in NOK million, unless otherwise indicated. The consolidated financial statements for 2024 with comparatives for 2023 have been prepared on a going concern basis. Please refer to note 4 for further details.
The consolidated financial statements are based on historical cost, except for the following:
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the group has control. Control exists when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns as a result of involvement with the company, and the group is able to impact returns through its power over the company.
All acquired companies are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which the group obtains control over the company. In the same way, the company is deconsolidated when control over the company ceases.
For accounting purposes, acquisitions of subsidiaries that do not constitute a business as defined in IFRS 3, such as acquisitions where substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single property or group of similar properties, are treated as asset acquisitions. The cost of acquisition is then attributed to the individual identifiable assets and liabilities based on their relative fair values on the acquisition date. Expenses associated with the transaction are capitalised under the investment property.
In such cases, deferred tax liabilities or assets are not recognised, except for deferred taxes related to losses carried forward, in accordance with the exceptions in IAS 12.
The group's presentation currency is NOK. Each entity in the group determines its own functional currency, and items included in the income statement of each entity are measured using that functional currency. The functional currency is the currency within the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded in the functional currency at the rate on the transaction date. Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the functional currency spot rates of exchange on the reporting date. Nonmonetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the rate on the reporting date. All currency translation differences are recognised in the income statement and statement of comprehensive income.
The assets and liabilities of foreign entities are translated into the presentation currency at the rate on the reporting date, and related income statement items are translated at average exchange rates per quarter. Currency translation differences arising on the translation are recognised as other comprehensive income. In the consolidated financial statements, currency translation differences linked to net investments in foreign operations are included in other comprehensive income until disposal of the net investment, at which point they are recognised in the income statement.
There are no material differences in risks and returns in the economic environment in which the Group operates. The group's highest decision-making authority, which is responsible for allocating resources and assessing the profitability of the operating segments, has been identified as the board of directors and the CEO. KMC Properties has one segment, industrial- and logistic properties. Consequently, the Group is only present in one business segment. The group is present in the following geographic markets per 31 December 2024:

Investment property comprises completed property held to generate rental income or for capital appreciation or both. Investment property is recognised initially at cost including transaction costs. Transaction costs include transfer taxes, professional fees for legal services and initial leasing commissions to bring the property to the condition necessary for it to be capable of operating. The carrying amount also includes the cost of replacing part of an existing investment property at the time that cost is incurred if the recognition criteria are met.
Subsequent to initial recognition, investment property is carried at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value are included in the income statement in the year in which they arise.
Investment property is derecognised when it has been disposed of or permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. Any gains or losses on the withdrawal or disposal of investment property are recognised in the income statement in the year of disposal. Gains or losses on the disposal of investment property are determined as the difference between net selling price and the carrying amount of the asset at the time of sale.
The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset's contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group's business model for managing them. With the exception of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component or for which the Group has applied the practical expedient, the Group initially measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs.
In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI), it needs to give rise to cash flows that are 'solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI)' on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. Financial assets with cash flows that are not SPPI are classified and measured at fair value through profit or loss, irrespective of the business model.
The Group's business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both. Financial assets classified and measured at amortised cost are held within a business model with the objective to hold financial assets in order to collect contractual cash flows.
The Group measures financial assets at amortised cost if both of the following conditions are met:
Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest (EIR) method and are subject to impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised, modified, or impaired.
Since the Group's financial assets (trade (rent) and other receivables, cash, and short-term deposits) meet these conditions, they are subsequently measured at amortised cost. The group has entered a cross currency interest rate swap, this derivative is carried at fair value through profit or loss.
All the group's currency, interest-rate swaps and forward exchange contracts are used as economic hedges. Hedge accounting is not applied. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently recognised continuously at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives are
recognised in the income statement under changes in value of financial instruments. The realised payable part of the interest-rate swap agreements is presented under net realised financials.
A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is primarily derecognised (i.e., removed from the Group's consolidated statement of financial position) when:
When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a passthrough arrangement, it evaluates if, and to what extent, it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Group continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of its continuing involvement. In that case, the Group also recognises an associated liability. The transferred asset and the associated liability are measured on a basis that reflects the rights and obligations that the Group has retained.
For trade (rent) receivables the Group applies a simplified lifetime approach in calculating expected credit losses (ECLs). The group historically has very low to null credit losses. Management evaluates on a regular basis the tenant's credit risk and guarantees in place related to trade receivables when determining the need for a loss allowance. For 2024 and 2023 no provision for an ECL allowance has been recognized, and there have been no losses on accounts receivable during 2024 and 2023.
Financial liabilities are classified at initial recognition, and subsequently measured at amortised cost, with some exemptions.
All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
The Group's financial liabilities include trade and other payables and loans and borrowings including bank overdrafts.
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the EIR method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance expenses in the statement of profit or loss.
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and deposits held with banks.
amount and the consideration, if reissued, is recognised in other equity/ other contributed equity. Voting rights related to treasury shares are cancelled and no provision is made for payment of dividends on treasury shares.
A person or a company (or other legal entities) is considered as a related party if he, she or it, directly or indirectly, has the possibility to exercise control or influence over another party in connection with financial and operational decisions.
Parties are also considered related if they are under control or significant influence. Loans to certain subsidiaries are considered as part of the Group's net investment. Exchange rate changes related to monetary items (receivables and liabilities) which are a part of the Company's net investment in foreign entities are treated as currency translation differences, and thus entered against equity.
The tax expense for the period comprises taxes payable and change in deferred tax. However, deferred tax is not recorded if it arises on initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction, other than a business combination, that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss on the transaction date.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that there will be future taxable income against which the temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the related tax asset is realized, or the deferred tax liability is settled. The provision for deferred tax is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities.
Pursuant to the exception in IAS 12, deferred tax is not recognised when buying a company which is not a business. A provision for deferred tax is made after subsequent increases in the value beyond initial cost, while a fall in value below initial cost will only reverse previous provisions for deferred tax. Furthermore, an increase in temporary differences related to tax depreciation will give grounds for a recognition of deferred tax.
Tax effects on other comprehensive income are separated and presented via other comprehensive income. These include exchange differences on net investments in foreign entities.
The Group earns revenue from acting as a lessor in operating leases which do not transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of an investment property. Rental income arising from operating leases on investment property is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in revenue in the statement of profit or loss due to its operating nature, except for contingent rental income which is recognised when it arises.
Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are recognised as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income. Lease incentives are recognized as a reduction of rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Interest income is recognised in income as it is earned using the effective interest method. When a receivable is impaired, the Group reduces the carrying amount to its recoverable amount, which is the estimated future cash flow discounted at the original effective interest rate of the instrument. Interest income on impaired loans is recognised using the effective interest rate.
Derivatives are financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss unless the derivative is designated as a hedge accounting instrument. See also note 3.3.1.
IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements. The management is reviewing the potential impact of IFRS 18. The group will apply the new standard from its mandatory effective date of 1 January 2027.
During the financial year, all subsidiaries have been sold. The Company/Group has since not engaged in new business activities. Cash reserves are limited, with ongoing expenses and no revenue, resulting in negative cash flow. These events or conditions, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern which is dependent on the successful raising of additional capital and the company's ability to execute any future business activities.
The board of directors will continue to monitor the financial situation and take necessary actions to address these challenges. However, the uncertainty surrounding the Company's ability to raise the necessary funds makes the going concern assumption subject to risk.
On 14 June 2024, KMC Properties ASA announced that it had entered into an agreement with Logistea AB, listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, whereby Logistea acquired KMC Properties HoldCo AS a wholly owned subsidiary of KMC Properties group (the transaction), and hence, acquiring all of the operations in the KMC Properties group. Prior to the transaction, all operations in KMC Properties ASA were transferred to KMC Properties HoldCo AS and there were no remaining employees or operations in KMC Properties ASA.
The consideration received was 16 263 577 class A-shares and 214 551 706 class B-shares in Logistea AB, and the shares were distributed as dividends to KMC Properties ASA's shareholders during the second half of 2024. The dividend distribution to the shareholders was carried out in two stages due to legal limitations in the dividend capacity of KMC Properties ASA.
The transaction and first dividend payment were approved at KMC Properties ASA's Extraordinary General Meeting held on 5 July 2024 and at Logistea AB's Extraordinary General Meeting held on 9 July 2024. The second dividend payment was approved at KMC Properties ASA's Extraordinary General Meeting held on 12 November 2024. In total, a non-cash dividend with the fair value of NOK 3 779 million was distributed.

1) The Extraordinary General Meeting prior to the transaction decided that all consideration shares are to be distributed to the shareholders of KMC Properties ASA as a distribution in kind. Because of this subsequent value changes in consideration shares received are considered to belong to the shareholders of KMC Properties ASA and hence are included in gain from sale of business.
All income and expenses in 2024 are considered to be related to the transaction and therefore recognised as discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
A former shareholder has sued the company in connection with the distribution of Logistea-shares in July 2024. The dispute relates to a small amount of the total distribution. No provision has been deemed necessary by the management and the board of directors in relation to the lawsuit.
The Group is exposed through its operations to the following financial risks:
In common with all other businesses, the Group is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes the Group's objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further quantitative information in respect of these risks is presented throughout these financial statements.

Financial instruments at amortised cost includes cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, and loans and borrowings. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, and trade and other payables approximates their fair value.
The table below shows an analysis of fair values of financial instruments in the Statement of Financial Position, grouped by level in the fair value hierarchy:
All financial derivatives are currency and interest swap agreements booked at fair value according to level 2. There were no transfers between levels during the period.
| Amounts in NOK million | Fair value level | 2024 | 2023 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Financial derivatives | Level 2 | - | 149 |
The fair value of financial derivatives, including currency forward exchange contracts/swaps and interest-rate swaps, is determined by the net present value of future cash flows, calculated using quoted interest-rate curves and exchange rates at the balance-sheet date. The technical calculations are generally performed by the group's banks. The group has tested these valuations for reasonableness.
The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Group's risk management objectives and policies and, whilst retaining ultimate responsibility for them, it has delegated the authority for designing and operating processes that ensure the effective implementation of the objectives and policies to the Group's finance function. The Board receives periodic reports from the Group's finance function through which it reviews the effectiveness of the processes put in place and the appropriateness of the objectives and policies it sets. The overall objective of the Board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Group's competitiveness and flexibility. Further details regarding these policies are set out below:
The Group is exposed to market risk (including interest rate risk), currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The risk policies are continuously being assessed by the Board of Directors and the appropriate policies and procedures to identify, measure and manage the financial risks has been implemented. The Group's overall risk management program seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance.
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices.
Foreign exchange risk arises when individual Group entities enter into transactions denominated in a currency other than their functional currency. The Group's policy is, where possible, to allow group entities to settle liabilities denominated in their functional currency) with the cash generated from their own operations in that currency. Where group entities have liabilities denominated in a currency other than their functional currency (and have insufficient reserves of that currency to settle them), cash already denominated in that currency will, where possible, be transferred from elsewhere within the Group.
At 31 December the Group's net exposure to foreign exchange risk was the following:

Liquidity risk is the risk that The Group will not be able to meet its obligations at maturity, and the risk that The Group will not be able to meet its obligations without a significant increase in cost. The Group's objective is to maintain a reasonable balance between debt and equity and to have sufficient available cash to fulfil obligations from The Group's activity.

The main purpose of the group's capital management is to maintain a reasonable balance between debt and equity. The group's goal is to have an LTV ratio of 50-65 per cent. The target is set with consideration to value development in the group and the opportunity to obtain the necessary financing.
Management and the board follow developments in the market regarding the importance of climate risk for the development in the market value of investment property. So far, climate risk has not affected the valuations, but it is assumed that the buyer group is somewhat smaller for properties that have a higher risk linked to climate change.
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations about future events which are believed to be reasonable under current circumstances. Corporate management makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the actual figures. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the next financial year are considered. There are no critical estimates at the end of the year.

KMC Properties ASA (KMCP) is a public limited liability company registered in Norway. Its head office is at Brattørkaia 13 B, 7010 Trondheim.
KMC Properties ASA uses a simplified version of IFRS as accounting principle and follows the accounting rules for recognition and measurement according to IFRS with the exception of group contributions and which are accounted for in accordance with the general provisions of the Accounting Act, i.e. revenue recognition when this is set aside in the issuing company. This is in line with the regulations for simplified IFRS § 3-1, no. 3. Also see note 3 to the consolidated accounts for further information on accounting principles. Subsidiaries and investments in related companies are recognised at cost unless the value is considered to be impaired. A write-down to fair value will be done if the impairment is not considered temporary and impairment is considered required by IFRS. Write-downs will be reversed if the requirement for impairment is no longer present.

During the financial year, all subsidiaries have been sold. The Company/Group has since not engaged in new business activities. Cash reserves are limited, with ongoing expenses and no revenue, resulting in negative cash flow. These events or conditions, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern which is dependent on the successful raising of additional capital and the company's ability to execute any future business activities.
The board of directors will continue to monitor the financial situation and take necessary actions to address these challenges. However, the uncertainty surrounding the Company's ability to raise the necessary funds makes the going concern assumption subject to risk.

To the General Meeting of KMC Properties ASA
We have audited the financial statements of KMC Properties ASA, which comprise:
In our opinion
Our opinion is consistent with our additional report to the Audit Committee.
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 relevant laws and regulations in Norway 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 KMC Properties ASA for 5 years from the election by the general meeting of the shareholders on 24 June 2020 for the accounting year 2020.
We draw attention to notes 4 and 10 to the financial statements for the Group and the Company, respectively, which states that all subsidiaries have been sold, and that the Company/Group has since not engaged in new business activities. Further, cashreserves are limited with ongoing expenses and no revenue, resulting in negative cash flow. As stated in note 4 and note 10, these events or conditions,

indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
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.
Except for the matter described in the Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern section, we have determined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report.
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 information accompanying the financial statements 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.
Based on our knowledge obtained in the audit, it is our opinion that the Board of Directors' report
Our opinion on the Board of Directors' report applies correspondingly to the statement on Corporate Governance.
Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements of the Company that give a true and fair view in accordance with simplified application of international accounting standards according to the Norwegian Accounting Act section 3-9, and for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of the Group that give a true and fair view in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU. Management is responsible 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 and using 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.
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:
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, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.
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.

As part of the audit of the financial statements of KMC Properties ASA, we have performed an assurance engagement to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements included in the annual report, with the file name kmcpasa-2024-12-31-en, have been prepared, in all material respects, in compliance with the requirements of the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815 on the European Single Electronic Format (ESEF Regulation) and regulation pursuant to Section 5-5 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act, which includes requirements related to the preparation of the annual report in XHTML format, and iXBRL tagging of the consolidated financial statements.
In our opinion, the financial statements, included in the annual report, have been prepared, in all material respects, in compliance with the ESEF regulation.
Management is responsible for the preparation of the annual report in compliance with the ESEF regulation. This responsibility comprises an adequate process and such internal control as management determines is necessary.
For a description of the auditor's responsibilities when performing an assurance engagement of the ESEF reporting, see: https://revisorforeningen.no/revisjonsberetninger
