We leave a remarkable year behind us with very strong revenue growth and also in terms of number of new members, and profit development, it was a record year. However, we have also faced great challenges, navigating in the wake of the pandemic and its impact on our business in our markets with new waves of Covid-19, with increased hospitalisations, operational challenges from Covid-19 and the reset of business focus. The performance of this year illustrates well the robustness of our diversified service offering, payor mix and geographical exposure. Our staff have in an impressive, dedicated, and tireless way contributed to our mission "to improve and sustain health and wellbeing", and for this I am immensely proud and grateful.
Revenue for the final quarter grew a strong 26.4% to €376.3m (€297.7m) with organic growth of 21.6%. Revenue for the year grew a very strong 38.0% to €1,377.4m (€997.8m) with an organic growth of 38.1%. This is a five-year compounded annual growth rate of 22.6%.
Fee-For-Service and other services (FFS) increased by 34.9% during the quarter, now representing 62% of total revenue. Full year FFS revenue growth was 53.4% now representing 60% of total revenue.
EBITDA for the quarter increased by a strong 41.6% to €75.1m (€53.1m) and increased by 71.7% to €270.4m (€157.5m) for the full year. EBITDA margin for the quarter expanded by 214bps to 20.0% (17.8%) and by 385bps to 19.6% (15.8%) for the year. All business units performed well, and Covid-19 services continue to contribute to margin expansion. Adjusted EBITDA-margin for the year came in at 20.4% (16.4%).
Healthcare Services quarterly revenue grew by 28.7% to €191.9m (€149.0m), with an organic growth of 22.8%. Revenue growth for the year was 31.8%, with an organic growth of 30.9%, reaching €711.6m (€539.7m). This is a five-year compounded annual growth rate of 23.8%. At the end of the year the division had 1.5 million members, growing with 31 thousand members in the quarter and with 142 thousand members for the year. It clearly illustrates the attractiveness of the Integrated Healthcare Model and is reflected in robust demand. FFS grew 40.9% in the quarter and represented 53% of divisional revenue, full year FFS revenue growth was 52.5%.
Healthcare Services EBITDA grew by 31.8% to €28.4m (€21.5m) in the quarter, an EBITDA margin of 14.8% (14.4%). EBITDA for the year grew by a strong 31.7% to €110.7m (€84.1m) corresponding to a margin of 15.6% (15.6%).
Diagnostic Services quarterly revenue grew by 22.7% to €189.7m (€154.6m), with an organic growth of 19.1%. Revenue growth for the year was a very strong 45.1%, with an organic growth of 46.2%, reaching €686.8m (€473.4m). This is a five-year compounded annual growth rate of 21.4%. The number of laboratory tests for the quarter increased by 22.8% to 35.9 million (29.1 million). The number of tests for the full year reached 133.4 million (103.9 million) and increased by 28.3%. At the end of the year, the number of blood-drawing points (BDPs) amounted to 852 (745). FFS grew by 28.2% for the quarter and represented 71% of divisional revenue, full year FFS revenue growth was 53.3%.
Diagnostic Services EBITDA grew a strong 42.8% to €53.3m (€37.4m) in the quarter, an EBITDA margin of 28.1% (24.2%). EBITDA for the year grew a very strong 100.2% to €179.7m (€89.8m), an EBITDA margin of 26.2% (19.0%). The margin expansion was strongly supported by Covid-19 services and is a result of consistently higher volume over the year.
2021 has been a very busy year, not least in respect of acquisitions, such as in the dental and gym businesses in Poland, hospitals in India, Germany, Poland and Romania, in addition to entering new fertility markets in Denmark and Norway. This has continued into 2022 with the completion of the acquisitions of a specialised genetics company in Cyprus and a leading medical services provider in southwestern Poland. Over the course of 2021 we have invested some €190m in total in organic and inorganic expansion capital, very well illustrating the continued strong growth opportunity ahead.
We follow closely the security situation and development in Ukraine and remain hopeful that the international community will be able to find a peaceful solution. We stand by all our Ukrainian colleagues

and their families and remain as committed as ever to support and develop our activities in the country.
We are positive and excited about the future and are well ahead of our three year financial targets (2020- 2022). We are in a strong financial position and will continue to focus on developing our business, invest in organic growth and selective acquisitions. Our markets are developing into a new normal and we are learning to adapt. There is an accentuated awareness and understanding of the need for access to preventative and diagnostic healthcare capacity that we expect to support long-term demand for our services, and Medicover is a crucial part of the healthcare systems where we operate.
Finally, I would like to express a sincere gratitude to all our staff across our markets for their dedication, hard-work, and professionalism – thank you.

Consolidated revenue amounted to €376.3m (€297.7m), up 26.4% with an organic growth of 21.6%. Revenue from the underlying business was €314.8m (€245.3m) and grew by 28.3% with an organic growth of 22.7%. Revenue from Covid-19 services amounted to €61.5m (€52.4m).

The business performed very well with good demand levels experienced across all areas. Economic activity has been strong in most markets, with a rebound in activity and tight labour markets being supportive. The negative effects of the reintroduction of restrictions towards the end of the quarter have been offset by Covid-19 services.
The more infectious Omicron variant impacted most markets at the end of the quarter. Demand for Covid-19 testing has been strong, particularly in Germany and Poland. Interest in vaccination has increased in markets with low vaccination levels, however large parts of the population are still unvaccinated or were recently vaccinated. Fortunately, the Omicron variant is less virulent with lower rates of associated hospitalisations, consequently it has been easier to manage from a public health point of view.
The Group continued to invest in infrastructure and acquisitions. The gym and fitness business in Poland added 11 gyms to the network (8 acquired and 3 organic expansion). One dental business in Poland was acquired. Two acquisitions were signed during the quarter and closed subsequently in 2022: NIPD Genetics, a specialised genetics company in Cyprus and CDT Medicus, a network of medical services in the south-west of Poland. The business overall has been further supported by organic investments and expansion across Medicover's markets.
Acquired revenue amounted to €14.5m.
Foreign exchange fluctuations had a negative impact of 0.1% with weakness for the Polish zloty offsetting the strengthening of the Ukrainian hryvna.
Healthcare Services revenue reached €191.9m (€149.0m), up 28.7% with an organic growth of 22.8%. Revenue from the underlying business was €184.3m (€137.8m) and grew by 33.7%. Revenue from Covid-19 services amounted to €7.6m (€11.2m).

Demand levels have been robust in almost all units. Negative impacts of Covid-19 have been limited, with some postponing of elective treatments seen at the end of the quarter. Additional costs were incurred in preparation for a potential increase in Covid-19 admissions and vaccination drives restarted. Employment and economic activity have been strong in the European markets, with a significant lack of labour and real wage increases.
Members increased by 10.6% to 1,495K (1,353K), 31K new members in the quarter. Employers understand clearly the value of healthcare packages for the workforce, which is reflected in robust demand. Maintaining service levels remains a challenge when shortages of medical staff are present.
FFS activities have performed well with good demand levels and coping with Covid-19 restrictions. Expansion of facilities has continued despite delays on commissioning as a result of government authority departments working at lower levels and handling backlogs. During the quarter 65 dental chairs were added resulting in a total of 359 dental chairs in Poland. Further greenfield openings are scheduled in 2022 and additional acquisitions are expected.
The division operated 4,028 commissioned hospital beds, 233 beds and one hospital were added during the quarter. Total hospitals amounted to 32 (19 hospitals in India).

Acquired revenue amounted to €11.2m.
Foreign exchange fluctuations had a negative impact of 1.6%, mainly due to the weakness for the Polish zloty.
Diagnostic Services revenue increased to €189.7m (€154.6m), up 22.7%, with an organic growth of 19.1%. Revenue from the underlying business was €135.8m (€113.4m) and grew by 19.8%. Revenue from Covid-19 services amounted to €53.9m (€41.2m).

Prices for most markets were stable quarter on quarter. Private pay funding grew by 28.2%. The BDP network was more impacted by Covid-19 restrictions in the comparative period.
The laboratory test volume increased by 22.8% to 35.9 million (29.1 million) in line with revenue growth. Covid-19 tests were 2.6 million (1.1 million), a higher growth versus the increase in revenue reflecting a different test mix and pricing.
The number of BDPs increased by 15% to 852 (745), 31 new BDPs during the quarter. Delays in opening new BDPs have been encountered due to Covid-19 working practices of public approval authorities. Investment in infrastructure continues, as well as specific facilities and machinery to expand the range of tests and automation. Medicover Genetics continues to expand its offering and the acquisition of NIPD Genetics will further support the growth of genetic services in 2022.

Foreign exchange fluctuations had a positive impact of 1.5%, mainly due to the strengthening of the Ukrainian hryvna.

Consolidated revenue amounted to €1,377.4m (€997.8m), up 38.0% with an organic growth of 38.1%. Revenue from the underlying business was €1,131.4m (€903.4m) and grew by 25.2% with an organic growth of 24.7%. Revenue from Covid-19 services amounted to €246.0m (€94.4m).

Growth has continued and investments and new capacity are contributing. Demand levels are robust with strong employment markets and increasing real salaries driving both disposable income and demand for employer paid healthcare.
Acquired revenue amounted to €32.2m.
Foreign exchange fluctuations had a negative impact of 3.3%, with all currencies weaker and most notably the Polish zloty.
Healthcare Services revenue reached €711.6m (€539.7m), up 31.8%, with an organic growth of 30.9%. Revenue from the underlying business was €645.0m (€511.4m) and grew by 26.1% with an organic growth of 24.7%.

Revenue from Covid-19 services amounted to €66.6m (€28.3m) with inpatient revenue in Medicover Hospitals India ('MHI) being one of the largest contributors. More than 15 thousand Covid-19 patients have been admitted to MHI inpatient
facilities over the year and almost half a million vaccine doses administered.
Members increased by 10.6% to 1,495K (1,353K) and 142K members were added in 2021.The strong employment markets in Healthcare Services operating countries have continued to support this business activity.
Fertility services expanded during the year with the addition of 4 clinics in Norway and a sperm bank in Denmark. The Group now operates 26 (21) fertility clinics. Organic expansion in facilities is planned for 2022 with new clinic openings and additional capacity.

Operating profit (EBIT) was €41.6m (€29.9m), an operating margin of 11.1% (10.1%). The estimate of EBIT from Covid-19 services was €25.5m (€14.1m) with a margin of 41.4% (26.9%). The underlying business was estimated at €16.1m (€15.8m), a margin of 5.1% (6.4%). The strong overall financial performance was a result of the resilient level of demand for Medicover's services and strong Covid-19 demand.
Net profit amounted to €28.4m (€18.8m), which represented a margin of 7.6% (6.3%). Net profit was impacted by a total financial result of €-4.1m (€-6.0m) of which €-6.3m (€-3.8m) was related to interest expense and commitment fees on the Group's debt and other discounted liabilities. Within the interest expense €-4.4m (€-2.7m) was related to lease liabilities. As the Group has expanded its activities significantly, including its leased premises, the cost of interest allocated to lease liabilities has increased. Foreign exchange gains were €1.7m (€-2.2m) of which €0.8m (€-1.1m) was related to euro denominated lease liabilities in Poland as the zloty strengthened.
Basic/diluted earnings per share amounted to €0.186 (€0.123).
Consolidated EBITDA was €75.1m (€53.1m), increased by 41.6%, an EBITDA margin of 20.0% (17.8%).

EBITDA for the underlying business grew by 25.7% to €48.7m (€38.8m), a margin of 15.5% (15.8%). When taking into account subsidies received in the prior year quarter, adjusting for acquisitions and the Q2 change in the method of allocation of overheads for Covid-19 services, the underlying EBITDA margin has increased by 1.4pp.
Adjusted EBITDA was €78.8m (€55.7m), a margin of 20.9% (18.7%).
Adjusted EBITDAaL increased to €60.6m (€43.8m), a margin of 16.1% (14.7%) driving the strong cash flows.
The contribution from Covid-19 revenue was estimated at an average of 42.9% (27.3%) EBITDA margin, which increased the overall EBITDA margin by approximately 4.5pp, corresponding to €26.4m (€14.3m). The method of allocating overheads to estimate the impact of Covid-19 was changed between the years, moving to a more marginal cost basis as from Q2 2021. In Q4 2021, this change in allocation method has had a negative impact on the underlying EBITDA margin by approximately 1.7pp.
In Q4 2020, €1.3m was recognised in other income/(cost) resulting from a revaluation of a financial investment.
Acquisition related expenses were €-1.5m (€-0.8m) and share-based payments were €-2.2m (€-1.8m).
EBITDA for Healthcare Services was €28.4m (€21.5m), an EBITDA margin of 14.8% (14.4%).

EBITDA for the underlying business grew by 37.4% to €27.0m (€19.6m), an EBITDA margin of 14.6% (14.2%). The strong expansion of facilities is reflected in this growth.
The EBITDA contribution from Covid-19 services was estimated to €1.4m (€1.9m) a margin of 18.8% (17.0%).
EBITDAaL was €16.4m (€14.9m), a margin of 8.5% (10.0%). The reduction in the margin is a reflection of the higher medical costs in the employer paid businesses, particularly in Poland and the dilution from the fast expansion with additions of new facilities that are in an earlier stage of development.

Operating profit amounted to €8.1m (€8.6m), a margin of 4.2% (5.8%).
The employer paid services grew well. Medical costs increased as a percentage of revenue resulting from seasonal patterns returning to increasing utilisation rates, inflation in particular higher hourly rates for medical staff and a catch up on diagnostic testing such as scans and laboratory tests. This was partially offset by better productivity of medical staff due to digital health channels. The comparable quarter was still impacted by lower levels of utilisation.
Romanian and Indian inpatient facilities were still attending to Covid-19 admissions, with higher demand at the end of Q3 2021. In Romania, admissions continued into the first part of the quarter and levelled off towards the end of the year.
MHI has expanded the number of facilities, ending up with 2,974 commissioned beds and 2,430 chargeable beds in 19 facilities. Of these facilities 5 were opened in 2021. There is an inevitable reduction in performance of the business with such a fast expansion pace as new facilities build up their activities.
Dental services in Poland have performed well, with an increase in number of facilities and a strong consumer market.
Fertility services have been more consistent with similar levels of demand compared to prior quarter. The addition of the Norwegian business and the Danish sperm bank contributed to the overall activity. In Polish fertility services no negative impact from Covid-19 is visible.
Medicover Sport is observing good demand for sports benefits packages since reopening at the end of May 2021, new memberships have been contracted at a satisfactory pace. Overall the business has a strong performance, however it has a large dependence on leased space, hence slightly dilutive to the division results. The expectation is that as membership size grows the
overall result for this business will demonstrate a high degree of operational leverage.

EBITDA for the underlying business grew by 13.8% to €28.3m (€25.0m), a margin of 20.9% (22.0%). The change in allocation basis of overheads between the comparative quarters impacts the underlying business EBITDA margin negatively by 4.0pp. The EBITDA contribution from Covid-19 services was estimated to €25.0m (€12.4m), with a margin of 46.3% (30.1%).
EBITDAaL was €47.2m (€32.2m), a margin of 24.9% (20.8%). EBITDAaL margin for the underlying business was 16.4% (17.4%), impacted negatively by the change in overhead allocation between Covid-19 and underlying business.
Operating profit was €40.4m (€27.7m), a margin of 21.3% (17.9%).
Demand for Covid-19 testing supported profitability with variability between markets, strong demand in Germany and weaker in Romania as the population suffered from a stronger Covid-19 wave earlier. Testing around travel and events has been supportive as well as contracts for businesses which require testing for customers' safety. It is becoming clear that Covid-19 demand is becoming a more persistent feature of medical demand and is likely to continue at variable levels over the coming years.

Operating profit (EBIT) was €159.4m (€61.3m) with an operating margin of 11.6% (6.1%), increased by the impact of Covid-19. EBIT for the underlying business was €72.3m (€31.6m), an operating margin of 6.4% (3.5%).
Net profit amounted to €106.6m (€27.3m), a margin of 7.7% (2.7%). Net profit was impacted by a total financial result of €-17.3m (€-25.6m) of which €-20.1m (€-18.1m) was related to interest expense and €1.8m (€-8.4m) to foreign exchange gains.
The Group has recognised an income tax charge of €-37.2m (€-10.0m). The effective tax rate is 25.8% (26.7%). The reduction in the effective tax rate is a reflection of the change in the composition of the countries where profits are being made, with a higher weighting to lower tax rate countries.
Basic/diluted earnings per share amounted to €0.686 (€0.182).
Consolidated EBITDA was €270.4m (€157.5m), an EBITDA margin of 19.6% (15.8%).

EBITDA for the underlying business amounted to €180.2m (€127.4m), an increase of €52.8m, a margin of 15.9% (14.1%), 1.8pp higher. When taking into account subsidies received in the prior year, adjusting for acquisitions and the Q2 change in allocation method of overheads for Covid-19 related services, the underlying EBITDA margin has increased by 4.7pp.
Adjusted EBITDA was €280.5m (€164.1m), a margin of 20.4% (16.4%).
Adjusted EBITDAaL increased to €220.9m (€115.1m), a margin of 16.0% (11.5%).
The EBITDA contribution from Covid-19 revenue was estimated at €90.2m (€30.1m), with a margin of 36.7% (31.8%). This higher margin increased the overall EBITDA margin by approximately 3.7pp.
In 2020, temporary salary reductions (voluntary, furlough and government support) were €13.1m, reduction in property lease costs were €1.5m and other cost actions amounted to a reduction of €3.1m for a total of €17.7m. In addition, the method of allocating overheads to estimate the impact of Covid-19 was changed between the years, moving to a more marginal cost basis as from Q2 2021. In 2021, this change in allocation method has had a negative impact on the underlying EBITDA margin by approximately 1.3pp.
A non-cash impairment charge of €-5.2m was incurred in the comparative period.
In 2020, €1.3m was recognised in other income/(cost) resulting from a revaluation of a financial investment.
Acquisition related expenses amounted to €-3.2m (€-1.5m) and share-based payments were €-6.9m (€-5.1m).
EBITDA for Healthcare Services increased by 31.7% to €110.7m (€84.1m), an EBITDA margin of 15.6% (15.6%).

EBITDA for the underlying business grew by 25.4% to €94.3m (€75.2m), growth of €19.1m and a margin of 14.6% (14.7%). Salary related reductions (voluntary, furlough and government support) in 2020 were €6.1m and reduction in property lease costs was €0.8m which effectively represented 1.3pp of the underlying EBITDA margin in the comparative period. Underlying EBITDA margin development has been positively supported by volume recovering and continuing patient choices of digital channels for care delivery. In excess of

two million remote consultations were performed during the year in the Polish employer paid business. Utilisation levels were higher in the fourth quarter for the employer paid business impacting margins negatively. The underlying EBITDA margin was negatively impacted by the disruption from changing between Covid-19 and underlying business particularly in India between the second and third quarter. Additional factors were restrictions on business operations such as the gyms in the first and into the second quarter and pressure on costs from salary inflation and general inflation.
The EBITDA contribution from Covid-19 services was estimated to €16.4m (€8.9m) impacting 1.0pp of margin. EBITDAaL increased by 28.9% to €74.0m (€57.5m), a margin of 10.4% (10.6%).
Operating profit amounted to €45.4m (€28.8m), a margin of 6.4% (5.3%).
The fast expansion of facilities for Medicover Sport (+52 in Poland) and MHI (+5) has diluted performance.
EBITDA for Diagnostic Services increased by 100.2% to €179.7m (€89.8m), an EBITDA margin of 26.2% (19.0%).

EBITDA for the underlying business grew by €37.3m or 54.5% to €105.9m (€68.6m), a margin of 20.9% (16.8%), 4.1pp higher. Salary related reductions (voluntary, furlough and government support) in 2020 were €6.2m and reduction in property lease costs was €0.7m, which together represent approximately 1.7pp of the underlying margin for the comparative period. The change in allocation basis of overheads between the comparative years impacts the underlying business EBITDA margin negatively by 2.8pp.
The EBITDA contribution from Covid-19 services was estimated to €73.8m (€21.2m), a margin of 41.1% (32.1%) and impacted 5.3pp on the overall margin. EBITDAaL amounted to €157.1m (€67.8m), a margin of 22.9% (14.3%) with underlying business EBITDAaL of €83.3m (€46.6m), a margin of 16.4% (11.5%). The prior year was impacted significantly in Q2 with a sharp fall in demand levels at BDPs impacting heavily the margin overall for the year.
Operating profit amounted to €135.5m (€50.8m), a margin of 19.7% (10.7%).
Margin improvement has been a result of consistently higher volume over the year. Increased staff costs due to inflation and tight labour supply offset the higher contribution. The majority of costs not related to staff have been stable due to long term contracts.

The pandemic is demonstrating its ability to be longer term in nature with the Omicron variant becoming the dominant strain in most markets causing renewed, albeit less lethal, disruption. After almost two years, the world is adapting to how to operate in a chronic Covid-19 environment. These adaptions are that testing is important to maintain "normal" activities, vaccinations give protection against severe illness but not against propagation of the viruses and that a balance between living a "normal' life and public health actions is required and essential to maintain population support.
The impact of restrictions and behaviour changes have resulted in more severe late-stage cancer cases and other late diagnosed chronic diseases. Long Covid-19 cases and mental health issues cause increased pressure on public healthcare systems which result in funding gaps. Positive aspects are also being felt from the pandemic, particularly the shift to digital healthcare channels and public policy shifts to support rather than restrict digital care delivery.
Medicover's staff has been highly supportive of patients and the Group throughout this crisis and continue to act in this way though the current waves. All frontline staff who want to have been vaccinated with boosters.
Increased public policy awareness of the requirement for robust health infrastructure, including laboratories and inpatient facilities, will be supportive of the sectors in the foreseeable future. A clear example of this is how well Germany's strong laboratory testing infrastructure coped with the pandemic demands.
Medicover has a strong degree of confidence in the continuing performance of the economies in its operating countries despite the effects of the pandemic. Strong economic growth is evident combined with increasing inflation. The Group has been able for selected customers to provide bespoke testing capability for specific industries from events management, the cruise industry, airlines and airports with an expectation that the impact of the pandemic will continue as a long-term business area in varying degrees, with a particular seasonal pattern.

The increase in equity included a positive movement of €9.1m on translation reserves mostly relating to Ukraine and India as those currencies strengthened compared to year-end 2020 offset with a slight weakness in the Romanian lei. In addition, total equity attributable to owners of the parent includes a negative movement of €33.1m relating to fair value changes of put option liquidity obligations with noncontrolling interests, consisting of €19.8m for existing and €13.3m for new obligations arising from acquisition of subsidiaries.
Inventories amounted to €72.0m (€53.0m), of which approximately €15.3m (€11.2m) is related to Covid-19 services and contracts.

At yearend €216m had been received, €42m was received in January 2022 and the remaining €19m will be received in April 2022. Loans payable net of cash and liquid short-term investments amounted to €143.4m (€81.1m) reflecting the strong operating cash flows as well as acquisitions and capital investment. The ratio of loans payable net of cash and liquid short-term investments to adjusted EBITDAaL for the year was 0.6x (0.7x level at yearend 2020).
Lease liabilities increased by €146.4m, of which 57.2% related to acquisitions mainly in India, Norway and in Medicover Sport in Poland. The remaining increase reflected the expansion of facilities leased in Poland, Romania, India and Germany.

The Group has resumed issuance under its SEK 2bn commercial paper programme at the end of the third quarter. €19.5m has been issued.
At year-end, €192.9m was mainly invested in highly liquid short-term euro-denominated bond funds and short-term government bonds. The Group has undrawn committed credit facilities of €230m, liquid
short-term investments and cash and cash equivalents of €274.8m, in total €504.8m (€306.8m) at the end of the year and is well positioned to support future organic and acquisition growth.
There was no significant revenue. The profit for the year amounted to €2.0m (€2.1m). The company has reassumed its commercial paper programme. At year-end, €19.5m has been issued. The
proceeds of the programme have been lent to the Company's subsidiary on the same maturity as the programme drawings. Equity as at 31 December 2021 was €610.0m (€611.9m).
The board of directors proposes to the annual general meeting that a dividend of €0.12 (€0.07) per share is distributed for the financial year 2021. The decision is subject to the shareholders' approval at the annual general meeting on 27 April 2022.
The proposed dividend is 17.5% of the net profit attributable to owners of the parent, in line with the dividend policy, corresponding to a total of €17.8m. If the proposal is accepted, the expected record date for the dividend will be 29 April and the dividend is expected to be paid out by Euroclear on 6 May.
The Group's business is exposed to risks that could impact its operations, performance or financial position. These comprise operational risks such as market risk, political risk, legislation and regulation risk, medical risk, insurance risk, reputational risk and technology risk. External risks consist of risks relating to a pandemic, availability to recruit and retain qualified and well-educated staff, dependence on information systems, risks relating to permits, property and acquisition execution. In addition the Group is exposed to financial risks, such as foreign currency risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity and financing risk. Management
of these risks is a key issue for Medicover to execute its strategy and reach financial targets. Medicover sets out to manage those risks that are controllable, through identification, assessment and controls and for those that are not controllable to monitor and mitigate as reasonable possible.
Risk factors and uncertainties of relevance to the Group including the current pandemic are described in the annual report 2020, section 'Risk and risk management' (pages 51-56). No additional risk factors have been identified during 2021.

The board of directors and the CEO declare that the year-end report for January-December 2021 gives a fair overview of the parent company´s and Group´s operations, financial position and results of operations and describes significant risks and uncertainties facing the parent company and companies included in the Group.

1) Amount does not reconcile with amount in the statement of financial position due to non-financial items.
2) Contingent consideration payable, borrowings and deferred consideration payable are presented as loans payable in the statement of financial position.
3) Presented as other non-current financial liabilities in the statement of financial position.
4) Financial assets and liabilities carried at amortised cost are considered to have carrying amounts that materially correspond to their fair values.
A breakdown of how fair value is determined is indicated in the following three levels:
Level 1: Short-term investments and other financial assets include €192.9m (€40.1m) and €2.2m (-) mainly in euro denominated bond funds and government bonds where the valuation is based on level 1.
Level 2: The Group has foreign currency swaps where the valuation is based on level 2.
Level 3: The Group has the following financial assets and liabilities recurrently measured using level 3 fair value measurements.
a) Other financial assets include €3.6m (€3.2m) relating to 14% (14%) of the voting rights in a dialysis clinic in Germany.
b) The fair value of the contingent consideration payable, resulting from past business combinations, are based on the estimated outcome of future performance targets.

c) The Group is contractually obliged, at a future date, to acquire a non-controlling interest in one of the Group's German subsidiaries at market price determined at that future date. Fair value amounted to €22.6m (€18.9m). Due to contracted terms disadvantaging the holder, it is estimated that the put option will be exercised in 2023 at the earliest.
The put option liquidity obligation with noncontrolling interests in MHI amounted to €43.1m (€27.0m). The increase is mainly explained by the expansion of activity. Half of the put options can be exercised from March 2023 and the remaining half from March 2027.
The put option liquidity obligation with noncontroling interests in other subsidiaries amounted to €13.3m (-). These are estimated to be exercised in 2022 and 2026.
In determining the fair value of the obligations, estimations of key variables were made, of which the most significant are the growth rate of the business to determine its profitability at the future date of exercise and the discount rate applied to the nominal value.
