The Quarter at a Glance
MESSAGE FROM THE CEO
One year ago, at our Capital Markets Day, we announced our target of reaching one million subscriptions over the coming years. Since then, the base has grown by 40% to 393k subscriptions, driven entirely by the Kid's market. In Q2 25 we saw product expansion, new subscription revenue lines, and a stable conversion rate over the last twelve months (LTM) at 37%, marking what has historically been a quieter quarter to one of our strongest.
As we enter the second half of the year, it's worth revisiting the strategic rationale behind the acquisition of Doro AB (''Doro''), which was aimed at realizing two key objectives. Firstly, to grow volumes in Doro's core feature- and smartphone business by leveraging our geographical market presence. And secondly, to leverage Doro to expand Xplora's mobile subscription services. We began launching as planned at the end of Q2, marking the beginning of compounding growth in the Senior segment.
Financially, Q2 25 reflects strong performance across both the Kids & Youth and Senior segments. Revenue grew 143% year-over-year to NOK 463m, largely driven by the acquisition of Doro AB, and further supported by a favourable product mix. EBITDA increased to NOK 51m from NOK 18m, reflecting the improved revenue mix and a balanced cost profile, with stable spending in the Kids & Youth segment and strategic investments in the senior segment. Service revenue continued its upward trajectory, up 25% year over year. We ended the quarter with NOK 530m in cash.
Operationally, the quarter was marked by product innovations across both segments. In the Kids & Youth segment, we launched the Gen 2 version of our X6P smartwatch, combining enhanced functionality with improved margins. In the Senior segment, we introduced the Aurora smartphone line, designed specifically with accessibility and ease of use in mind. Our 4G feature phone series Leva continued to perform strongly, supported by the ongoing shift to 4G technology in several key markets and further strengthened by a significant order backlog. Overall, we are seeing a structural improvement in margins across the group, driven by the transition to new generation products and favourable market conditions.
In parallel with this development, we expanded our recurring revenue model at the end of Q2 with another new subscription line; the Xplora Guardian App on the HMD Fusion X1 smartphone developed in partnership with HMD and powered by our own software-as-a-service. This marks the first time we see one of our solutions launched as a standalone software product.
With new products and solutions launched across the group, and a subscription base that keeps growing, we're in a great position to keep pushing forward. At the same time, our strong cash position gives us the financial flexibility to support this momentum. That kind of flexibility does not only strengthen the balance sheet, but it also gives us the freedom to think bigger about what comes next.

Subscription Base (k)
Q2 2025 Strategic and Operational Review
Xplora is working to realize its high-value growth strategy with an ambition of reaching one million subscriptions. To achieve this growth, the company is expanding its portfolio of products and services and broadening its customer reach. The strategic partnership with Human Mobile Devices (HMD) extends the scope beyond the kid's smartwatch market to include youth smartphones, increasing the average customer lifetime value. The acquisition of Doro AB further broadens the customer reach to the senior market, enabling a significant growth opportunity in the years to come.
BUILDING A GLOBAL SUBSCRIPTION BASE
Xplora exited the quarter with an ARR of NOK 326.6m, up from NOK 262.2m in Q2 24.
Driven by strong growth in service revenues from the Kids & Youth segment, a growing share of operating expenses is now covered by gross profit from recurring revenue. Over the last 12 months, ARR gross profit covered 96% of service-related opex in the Kids & Youth segment. This excludes marketing costs tied to device sales. ARR gross profit now largely covers the cost of maintaining our subscription base.
Total subscription base (Subscriptions 1,000)
The total subscription base grew by 112k y/y from 281k in Q2 24 to 393k at the end of Q2 25, marking an increase of 40%. The total subscription base is comprised of 271k mobile subscriptions, 25k B2B service revenue subscriptions, 8k service fee subscriptions and 89k premium service subscriptions.
The current subscription base reflects activity in the kids' market within the Kids & Youth segment. Sales in the Youth market and the Senior segment launched successfully in June as planned.
Xplora operates as an MVNO in Norway, France, Spain, UK, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Germany and the US.
Distribution of the mobile subscription base (%)
Of the 271k mobile subscriptions Xplora had at the end of Q2 25, 190k were in the Nordics. This was up 14k y/y, equivalent to 8% growth. Outside the Nordics, Xplora had 81k mobile subscriptions at the end of Q2 25. This was an increase of 79% y/y from 45k in Q2 24 and up 9% q/q from 74k in Q1 25. The largest market outside the Nordics were Germany with 48k mobile subscriptions. Germany remains the strongest growth driver for the sixth quarter in a row, adding 6k mobile subscriptions q/q and 27k y/y. This corresponds to 132% growth y/y. US ended Q2 25 with 13k subscriptions. UK subscriptions has grown 66% y/y from 6k in Q2 24 to 9k in Q2 25, and Spain grew by 106% y/y from 4k in Q2 24 to 9k in Q2 25.
LAUNCH OF AURORA SMARTPHONE SERIES
The Aurora smartphone series was launched to the market as part of the group's Senior segment during Q2. The Aurora series is tailored specifically for users with additional needs, whether physical - such as audio or vision support - or technical, with a focus on simplicity and ease of use. The new smartphones have been well received by customers, and sales are expected to ramp up in the coming quarters.
LAUNCH OF DORO CONNECT IN SWEDEN
At the end of Q2 25, the senior mobile subscription service, called "Doro Connect", was launched in Sweden through the company's webshop as part of the Senior segment offering. The launch went according to plan and represents an important step in expanding the group's recurring revenue model.
DORO AB AQUISITION
On January 13, 2025, Xplora announced the outcome of the public offer to the shareholders of Doro AB, securing control over 88.3% of the outstanding shares. The acquisition was fully financed by a long-term loan facility of EUR 82m, where up to 75% of the EURIBOR-linked interest rate has been hedged. As of 30 June 2025, Xplora control 89.6% of Doro AB.
Xplora Technologies Group Financials
Q2 25 marked another strong quarter for the group, with solid performance across both the Kids & Youth and Senior segments. Revenue grew 143% y/y to NOK 462.9m, driven by an improved product mix. EBITDA increased to NOK 50.9m from NOK 17.5m y/y, reflecting stable spending in the Kids & Youth segment and strategic investments in the Senior segment. Service revenue grew 25% y/y to NOK 81.6m, driven by continued subscription growth and stable conversion rate now at LTM 37%. The quarter closed with a cash position of NOK 530.0m, supporting continued strategic flexibility.
Q2 25 PROFIT & LOSS
From Q1 25, Xplora reports under IFRS, with Doro AB being reported as part of the Group for the first time. Doro is reported as the Senior segment. Please refer to note 12 for further details on the transition.
In Q2 25 Xplora's group revenue came in at NOK 462.9m, up 143% from NOK 190.4m in Q2 24. Excluding the contribution from the senior segment, revenues were up 13% y/y to NOK 215.6m. Recurring service revenue grew 25% y/y from NOK 65.6m in Q2 24, to NOK 81.6m in Q2 25, driven by a 112k y/y increase in total subscriptions. Device revenue grew 205% y/y to NOK 381.3m.
Revenue Xplora Co. – Devices vs services (NOKm)
Senior device revenue
Gross profit ended at NOK 231.4m in Q2 25, yielding a gross margin of 50%. This was an improvement from NOK 91.9m and a gross margin of 48% in Q2 24. Excluding the senior segment contribution, gross profit would have been NOK 116.5m in Q2 25, with a margin of 54%. Gross margin per revenue line in Q2 25 was 43% for device revenue and 82% for service revenue. The gross margin reported excludes marketing, selling and distribution costs. Gross margin from device sales is exposed to the current EUR/USD exchange rate.
Total operating costs came in at NOK 180.4m in Q2 25 and NOK 83.2m without the senior segment contribution. This compares to NOK 74.4m in Q2 24. LTM operating costs as a percentage of LTM sales were 41% in Q2 25, slightly down from 43% in Q2 24. Employee expenses ended at NOK 74.5m in Q2 25, including NOK 6.5m in severance provisions related to reorganization costs following the discontinuation of activities in IVS GmbH, one of the Group's German subsidiaries. This is compared to Employee expenses of NOK 30.6m in Q2 24. Marketing expenses were NOK 39.3m in Q2 25, up from NOK 16.9m in Q2 24. Other operating costs were NOK 66.6m in Q2 25, which includes NOK 2.1m in transaction costs, up from NOK 26.9m in Q2 24. At the end of Q2 25, Xplora had 216 full-time equivalents (FTE), up from 108 FTE in Q2 24.
Operating expenses (NOKm)
EBITDA ended at NOK 50.9m in Q2 25, an increase of 191% from NOK 17.5m in Q2 24. Excluding the contribution from the senior segment, EBITDA was NOK 33.3m.
Depreciation and amortization was NOK 13.5m, up from NOK 10.9m in Q2 24. As such, group EBIT ended at NOK 37.5m. In Q2 25, net finance expenses amounted to NOK 60.7m, compared to NOK 3.9m in Q2 24. The increase in finance expenses is primarily due to interests and negative non-cash currency effects on the acquisition loan. Please see note 6 for breakdown of net finance expenses.
As a large share of the Groups revenue is in EUR, which contributed positively on revenue this quarter, the company has a natural hedge against the currency exposure on the EUR-denominated acquisition loan. This is also the reason why the company has not hedged this loan exposure.
Although the company experienced positive currency effect on revenue, it did not outweigh the negative effect of the loan adjustment, yielding a loss before tax of NOK 23.2m in Q2 25. This compares to a profit before tax of NOK 2.7m in Q2 24. Note that finance expenses do not include a marked value adjustment of Xplora's shares in Doro, denominated in SEK.
BALANCE SHEET
Total assets increased to NOK 2,065.8m at the end of Q2 25, from NOK 1,935.4m at the end of Q1 25. Inventories ended at NOK 321.0m, up from NOK 242.3m in Q1 25. Excluding the inventory contribution from the Senior segment, inventories were NOK 66.4m exiting Q2 25, down from NOK 76.6m in Q1 25. Inventory decreased in the Kids & Youth segment, while the Senior segment saw an increase due to the decision to secure volumes of Leva feature phones and Aurora smartphones for the coming quarters. Current receivables increased from NOK 222.4m in Q1 25, to NOK 281.7m in Q2 25.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by NOK 14.8m q/q from NOK 544.8m in Q1 25, to NOK 530.0m in Q2 25. Excluding the cash contribution from the Senior segment, cash and cash equivalents increased, ending at NOK 310.8m in Q2 25, compared to NOK 302.1m in Q1 25.
Consolidated equity was NOK 348.0m, including minority shareholder equity at NOK 91.8m. This compared to an equity of NOK 366.3m in Q1 25, and the minority shareholders' equity was NOK 90.4m.
Total non-current assets ended at NOK 933.2m in Q2 25, compared to NOK 926.0m in Q1 25. Excluding the senior effects, total non-current assets would have been NOK 204.6m, compared to NOK 206.9 in Q1 25. The largest components of non-current assets were intangible assets at NOK 832.1m in Q2 25, up from NOK 818.9m in Q1 25. Intangible assets include goodwill at NOK 455.8m, and Trademarks and trade names at NOK 286.7m.
Total liabilities to financial institutions was NOK 1,037.2m at the end of Q2 25, up from NOK 982.4m in Q1 25. NOK 963.3m of this is non-current debt mostly relating to the financing of the Doro AB acquisition. The increase is primarily due to currency effects on the acquisition loan. Other non-current liabilities amounted to NOK 106.2m at the end of Q2 25, including NOK 59.1m in deferred tax liability from the PPA. Other current liabilities ended at NOK 574.4m and NOK 159.9m excluding the contribution from the Senior segment. This compares to NOK 482.9m in Q1 25.
CASH FLOW
Net cash flow from operating activities was positive NOK 0.4m in Q2 25, compared to positive NOK 37.1m in Q2 24. The main impact came from changes in working capital, which gave a negative cash effect of NOK 43.3m in Q2 25. This was primarily driven by an increase in inventory in the Senior segment following the decision to secure volumes of Leva feature phones and Aurora smartphones for the coming quarters. In Q2 24 changes in working capital gave a cash effect of positive NOK 23.4m. Since the currency adjustment on the loan is a non-cash adjustment, this is netted against the negative effect it has on profit before tax. The currency effects was NOK 38.2m in Q2 25.
Cash from investing activities amounted to negative NOK 14.8m in Q2 25 is capex and relates solely to investments in intangible and tangible assets. This compares to negative NOK 4.1m in Q2 24.
Cash flow from financing activities was negative NOK 0.5m in Q2 25. This was largely due to an increase in the supply chain financing facility and finance expenses relating to the Doro AB acquisition. In Q2 24, cash flow from financing activities was negative NOK 26.3m.
In total, net change in cash was negative NOK 14.8m during Q2 25, compared to positive NOK 6.7m in Q2 24. Xplora ended the quarter with a cash balance of NOK 530.0m, up 319% y/y compared to NOK 126.3m at the end of Q2 24.
YTD PROFIT & LOSS
Group revenues reached NOK 801.6m in the first half of 2025, a 160% increase from NOK 307.8m in the same period last year. Excluding the contribution from the senior segment, revenues were up 8% y/y to NOK 333.7m. Recurring service revenue improved by 26% y/y ending at NOK 161.3m. Device revenue came in at NOK 640.3m, a 257% increase from NOK 179.6m YTD 24.
Gross profit was NOK 421.9m, compared to NOK 159.5m YTD 24. Gross margin ended at 53%, up from 52% y/y. While high-margin service revenue made up a smaller share of total revenue compared to last year, the margin remained stable due to improved device profitability from next-generation products and favourable market conditions.
Total operating expenses (opex) were NOK 353.4m, up 156% y/y from NOK 138.1m in YTD 24. The YTD 25 figure excludes NOK 15.7m from the reported opex in the senior segment relating to transaction costs incurred before the transaction date.
Xplora achieved an EBITDA of NOK 68.5m in the first half of 2025, compared to NOK 21.4m YTD 24. Depreciation and amortization were NOK 37.7m, up from NOK 21.5m YTD 24. EBIT ended at NOK 30.8m, an improvement from negative NOK 0.1m in the same period last year. Profit before tax was negative NOK 106.6m, compared to negative NOK 8.6m YTD 24. The increase is primarily driven by higher net financial expenses compared to the same period last year, due to one off cost related to the acquisition of Doro AB, including bank and arrangement fees recognized as finance expenses, interests, and negative non-cash currency effects on the EUR-denominated acquisition loan.
COMBINED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION
In Q2 25, the revenue increased 16%, compared to combined pro forma revenue of NOK 398.2m for Q2 24. The gross profit increased 25%, from NOK 184.7m, and EBITDA increased 34%, from NOK 38.0m in Q2 24 to NOK 50.9m in Q2 25.
The combined cash and cash equivalent balance increased by 73% y/y from NOK 307.0m in Q2 24 to NOK 530.0m in Q2 25.
The combined pro forma results reflect the aggregated historical performance of both legacy entities, adjusted for alignment in accounting policies and currency. These are presented for informational purposes and do not represent actual historical results.
RISK AND UNCERTAINTY
As described in the Annual Report 2025, Xplora faces several risk factors, including market and competition risk, operational risk, geopolitical and climate risks, cybersecurity risk, and both the Board of Directors and management diligently monitors the group's risk exposure and continuously strives to enhance internal control processes to uncover and mitigate risks and uncertainties.
The company sees no major changes to these risk factors, which are reviewed in detail in the Annual Report. Note that the group expects minimal effects of announced and/or implemented US import tariffs, with device sales in the US making up only a small portion of total revenue.
The group's financial market risks, relating mainly to interest rates and currency developments, are also covered in detail in the Annual Report.
The interest risk mainly relates to a four-year floating interest loan of EUR 82m which was established to finance the acquisition of Doro AB. To mitigate interest rate risk, Xplora has hedged up to 75% of the EURIBOR-linked interest rates through interest rate swap agreements. In addition, the group refinanced and expanded an existing inventory financing facility in the first half year.
With sales, procurement, salaries and other costs in different currencies, Xplora is exposed to currency risk associated with movements in NOK against primarily USD, EUR, SEK, and GBP. As the group buys goods in USD and sells the majority of its products in European markets, the group is hedging parts of its EUR/USD exposure to mitigate the risk related to currency fluctuations.
With a strong cash position of NOK 530m, the group has ample liquidity to finance ongoing and planned operations, and the Board of Directors and the management view the liquidity risk as very limited.

While total revenue grew by 13% y/y, gross profit grew by 27% ending at NOK 116.5m in Q2 25.

From Q1 25 Xplora reports on the Senior segment. Historical figures reported by Doro are included in the segment report, for an easier comparison and overview of historical development in the figures.
The sales of the new Feature phones series continue to be a success and are the largest contribution to the y/y revenue growth. Revenue in Q2 25 was NOK 247.4m, up 19% from the previous year.
Gross profit increased 24% y/y to NOK 114.9m in Q2 25. With a gross margin of 46%, in line with expectations.

• Gross margin 46% in Q2 25. This compares to 45% in Q2 24 reported by Doro
investments in connectivity set-up and costs relating to the discontinuation of IVS Gmbh, a German subsidiary in the Senior segment, which amounted to NOK 1.4m and NOK 6.5m respectively.
With these costs and reorganization, the Senior segment is set to scale both its connectivity and device business, yielding high growth opportunities for the segment going forward.
EBITDA ended at NOK 16.3m for the senior segment in Q2 25, down 21% compared to Q2 24 reported by Doro AB. Given the strong Q1 25, YTD EBITDA is up 50% y/y. YTD is excluding NOK 15.7m opex compared to Doro AB reported figures, relating to transaction costs in Q1 25 occurred before the transaction date.
Xplora successfully launched mobile subscriptions and services for the senior customer base in the second quarter of 2025, starting with sales in Sweden through the company's own webshop. This marks an important step in developing the recurring revenue base for the Senior segment. The service will continue to be rolled out to additional sales channels and markets in the coming months, supporting long-term growth opportunities.
Outlook
Xplora showed strong revenue growth also in the second quarter, driven by the acquisition of Doro AB and solid underlying revenue growth in both the Kids & Youth and Senior segments. The acquisition of Doro AB and the partnership with HMD has expanded Xplora's strategic scope and opened major new revenue opportunities. While the current subscription base only reflects the Kid's market within the Kids & Youth segment, the company in Q2 25 launched subscription services on top of Doro's mobile phone offering, alongside new services targeting the Youth market. As a result, Xplora is now addressing a significantly larger market on its journey towards its target of reaching one million subscriptions.
The revenue growth in the Kids & Youth segment in Q2 25 was accompanied by higher gross margins and good cost control, enabling a sharp y/y result improvement. Xplora and HMD kicked off its partnership at the World Mobile Congress in Barcelona in March, and in Q2, Xplora introduced the Xplora Guardian app as a subscription-based service on the HMD Fusion X1 smartphone, targeting the Youth market. Powered by Xplora's own software-as-aservice platform, the Guardian app marks the company's first standalone software product.
In addition, Youth mobile subscription was launched in Xplora's own channels in Norway, with the rest of the Nordics following in Q3 and other European markets towards the end of the year. Xplora expects the HMD partnership to increasingly add momentum to the Kids & Youth segment and support the company's longterm ambition in this segment.
The Senior segment is currently enjoying solid growth on the back of successful launches of new feature phones and smart phones during the first half of the
year, respectively. As previously outlined, one of the main value creation opportunities from the Doro AB acquisition lies in expanding Xplora's mobile subscription services into the Senior segment, adding recurring service revenues on top of Doro's device sales. This initiative started at the end of Q2 25 with the launch of "Doro Connect", Xplora's new mobile subscription offering in the Senior segment.
Efforts to realize this opportunity started with sales through the webshop in Sweden at the end of Q2 25 and will be rolled out in webshops in the other Nordic markets during Q3, and in other European markets towards the end of the year. Learnings and results from these initial initiatives will help shape the rollout across additional channels in the future.
With a broader and stronger operational and financial fundament, Xplora remains confident in its ambitions to build the number one platform for connected families. The company is committed to executing on its strategic roadmap, with a clear goal of reaching one million subscriptions over the next three-four years.

NOTES
NOTE 1 CORPORATE INFORMATION
Xplora Technologies AS is a Norwegian public limited liability company listed on Euronext Growth Oslo under the ticker XPLRA. The company's head office is located at Nedre Slottsgate 8, 0157 Oslo, Norway. Xplora is an information technology group that develops and offers wearable smart devices, mobile subscriptions, and value-added services through its premium subscription.
The interim consolidated financial statements of Xplora Technologies AS and its subsidiaries (the "Group" or "Xplora") for the three months ending 30 June 2025 were approved for publication by the Board of Directors on 14 August 2025.
NOTE 2 BASIS OF PREPARATION AND TRANSITION TO IFRS
The annual financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2025 will be the first the Group prepares in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union (EU). Accordingly, the Group has prepared its interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended 30 June 2025 in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
These interim financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements. For periods up to and including the year ended 31 December 2024, the Group prepared its financial statements in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and generally accepted accounting principles in Norway (N-GAAP). The effect of the transition to IFRS is explained in note 12.
Accounting policies applied under IFRS are presented either in the relevant notes or in the separate accounting policy note presented as part of the transition section, note 12.3.1.
The group's operations are subject to seasonal fluctuations, with sales and subscription growth typically concentrated in the second, third and fourth quarters. These seasonal effects may also impact inventory levels, working capital, and cash flows. However, the group does not consider its operations to be highly seasonal in accordance with IAS 34.
The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited.
NOTE 3 SEGMENTS
Following the acquisition of Doro AB ("Doro") on 13 January 2025, the Group is organized into two operating and reportable segments: Kids & Youth and Senior.
The Kids & Youth segment includes the operation previously reported under Xplora, covering the development and sale of wearable smart devices, mobile subscriptions, and value-added services offered through its premium subscription model, primarily for children, youth and families.
The Senior segment includes the operation of Doro, which combines the development and sale of senior-adapted phones, mobile phones and other technical products, and applications designed for senior users.
Following the acquisition, the Group has introduced mobile subscription services to the Senior Segment as part of its ongoing integration strategy. This is expected to complement Doro's product offering and create revenue synergies across the Group. The impact of this change will be reflected in the segment reporting as the mobile subscription business is operationally implemented.
Each operating segment currently maintains its own support function, including logistic, supply chain, and customer service, based on existing organizational setup. These functions are included within the respective segment results and are not reported separately.
No operating segments have been aggregated to form the above reportable operating segments. Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Group's chief operating decision maker, which comprises the CEO and Board of Directors of Xplora Technologies AS. The segment structure reflects the legal organization of the Xplora Group prior to the acquisition of Doro and the existing structure of Doro Group.
SEGMENT PROFIT AND LOSS, ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Segment profit and loss includes all income and expenses directly attributed to the operating segments, while segment assets and liabilities include all assets and liabilities directly attributed to the operating segments. The 'Other/ Eliminations' column includes adjustments as part of the PPA and eliminations of intercompany transactions.

NOTE 8 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Business combinations completed in 2025
On 13 January 2025, the Group obtained control of Doro AB by acquiring 88.32 % of the company's shares. The acquisition of Doro AB represents a transformational milestone in the Group's development. With its strong sales of feature phones and smartphones for seniors, Doro provides a robust platform for expanding Xplora's service model into a new and growing market segment. By integrating Xplora's mobile subscription offerings and services into Doro's devices, the Group sees significant potential to drive growth in recurring revenues within the senior segment.
In line with the public offer made to the shareholders of Doro AB on 26 September 2024, the Group paid SEK 34 in cash per share. As such, the total consideration equaled SEK 736.6 m or NOK 749.0 m, as part of the initial acquisition.
The assets and liabilities recognized as a result of the acquisition are as follows:
| NOK '1000 | Note Fair value |
|---|---|
| Assets | |
| Property, plant, and equipment | 1,627 |
| Right-of-use assets | 13,829 |
| Intangible assets | 319,380 |
| Other non-current receivables | 44,536 |
| Inventories | 168,384 |
| Trade and other receivables | 155,470 |
| Other current assets | 12,100 |
| Derivative financial assets | 3,966 |
| Cash and cash equivalents | 264,879 |
| Total assets | 984,171 |
| Liabilities | |
|---|---|
| Employee benefit obligations | -3,457 |
| Deferred tax liabilities | -44,916 |
| Lease liabilities | -13,829 |
| Trade and other payables | -219,835 |
| Current tax liability | -5,694 |
| Other liabilities | -86,937 |
| Provisions | -75,651 |
| Derivative financial liabilities | -813 |
| Total liabilities | -451,132 |
| Net identifiable assets and liabilities at fair value | 533,039 |
| Non-controlling interests | -93,901 |
| Goodwill | 309,897 |
| Purchase consideration transferred | 749,036 |
Total consideration 749,036
The goodwill is attributable to the workforce and the expected synergies arising from the expansion of the Group's business model and mobile subscription services into Doro's market segment. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. Transaction costs related to the acquisition of NOK 7.1m are expensed in 2024, and NOK 13.0m in 2025.
The fair value of acquired trade receivables is NOK 142.4 m. The gross contractual amount for trade receivables due is NOK 148.4m, with a loss allowance of NOK 6.0m recognized on acquisition.
The Group recognizes non-controlling interests in an acquired entity either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the acquiree's net identifiable assets. This decision is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. For the acquisition of Doro AB, the Group elected to recognize the non-controlling interests at fair value.
The acquired business contributed revenue of NOK 228.6m and net profit of NOK 12.3m to the Group in Q1 2025 and revenue of NOK 247.4m and net profit of NOK 6.7m in Q2 2025. For practical purposes, the acquired business has been consolidated from 1 January 2025, and accordingly, the Group's pro forma revenue and profit year to date (YTD) 2025 are the same as the figures reported in the Q2 2025 income statement. NOK 15.7m was excluded compared to Doro AB's reported figures in Q1 2025, relating to transaction costs for financial advisory services incurred in Q1 before the transaction date.

NOTE 12.0 IFRS TRANSITION OVERVIEW
The most significant changes to the financial statements resulting from the change in accounting policies following the transition to IFRS are described below.
Transaction costs in business combinations are expensed as incurred under IFRS. Under N-GAAP, such costs were included in the purchase consideration. Transaction costs of NOK 10.9m were recognized as other operating expenses in Q1 2025, and NOK 2.1m in Q2 2025.
Certain arrangements with customers involving market support were, under N-GAAP, presented as marketing expenses when the related costs were incurred. Under IFRS, such arrangements are treated as variable consideration related to the sale of devices and are therefore recognized as a reduction in revenue at the time of the sale.
Accounting for leases under IFRS requires the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the statement of financial position. Lease payments that were previously recognized as other operating expenses under N-GAAP are replaced by depreciation of the right-of-use assets and interest expense on the lease liabilities. The net effect on profit or loss for the period is not significant. However, the impact on EBITDA, compared to N-GAAP, reflects a slight increase.
NOTE 12.1 TRANSITION TO IFRS
The financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025 will be the first the group prepares in accordance with IFRS. For periods up to and including the year ended 31 December 2024, the group prepared its financial statements in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and generally accepted accounting principles in Norway (N-GAAP).
Accordingly, the Group has prepared interim financial statements that comply with IFRS, together with comparative information for 2024. In preparing these financial statements, the group's opening statement of financial position was prepared as of 1 January 2024, the group's date of transition to IFRS. This note explains the principal adjustments made by the group in restating its N-GAAP financial statements, including the statement of financial position as of 1 January 2024 and the income statement for the year ended 31 December 2024.
Exemptions applied
IFRS 1 allows first-time adopters certain exemptions from the retrospective application of specific IFRS requirements. The Group has applied the following exemptions:
IFRS 3 Business Combinations have not been applied retrospectively to acquisitions of subsidiaries that qualify as businesses under IFRS and occurred before 1 January 2024. By applying this exemption, the N-GAAP carrying amounts of assets and liabilities required to be recognized under IFRS are treated as their deemed cost at the acquisition date. Subsequent to the acquisition date, these assets and liabilities are measured in accordance with IFRS. Assets and liabilities that do not qualify for recognition under IFRS are excluded from the opening IFRS statement of financial position. The Group did not recognize any additional assets or liabilities that had not been recognized under N-GAAP, nor did it derecognize any previously recognized amounts as a result of applying IFRS recognition criteria.
IFRS 1 also requires that the N-GAAP carrying amount of goodwill be used in the opening IFRS statement of financial position, except for any adjustments arising from impairment testing or from the recognition or derecognition of identifiable intangible assets. In accordance with IFRS 1, the Group tested goodwill for impairment at the date of transition to IFRS and determined that no impairment was required as of 1 January 2024.
The group has not applied IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates retrospectively to fair value adjustments and goodwill arising from business combinations that occurred before the date of transition to IFRS. These fair value adjustments and goodwill are treated as assets and liabilities of the parent, rather than as assets and liabilities of the acquiree.
As a result, these assets and liabilities are either already expressed in the functional currency of the parent or are non-monetary foreign currency items, and therefore no further translation differences arise.
The group has elected to measure property, plant, and equipment at fair value at the date of transition to IFRS and to use that fair value as deemed cost. The carrying amount under N-GAAP is considered a reasonable approximation of fair value and has therefore been used as the deemed cost at the transition date.
The Group assessed all contracts existing as of 1 January 2024 to determine whether they contain a lease, based on the conditions in place at the date of transition.
Lease liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee's incremental borrowing rate as of 1 January 2024. Right-of-use assets were measured at an amount equal to the corresponding lease liabilities. Lease payments related to leases with terms ending within 12 months of the transition date have been recognized as an expense, either on a straight-line basis over the lease term or using another systematic basis. The Group has also elected to apply the use of hindsight, for example, in determining the lease term when contracts contain options to extend or terminate the lease.
Cumulative currency translation differences for all foreign operations are deemed to be zero as of 1 January 2024.
Estimates
The estimates made as of 1 January 2024 and 31 December 2024 are consistent with those made for the same dates under N-GAAP, with the exception of estimates related to lease liabilities and the fair value of derivatives, for which N-GAAP did not require estimation. The estimates used by the group to present these amounts in accordance with IFRS reflect the conditions existing at 1 January 2024, the date of transition to IFRS, and at 31 December 2024. An exception applies to the determination of the lease term, where the group has elected to apply hindsight for contracts that include options to extend or terminate the lease.

A: Leasing
Under N-GAAP, leases are classified as either finance leases or operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized as operating expenses in the statement of profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Under IFRS, lessees apply a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases—except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets—recognizing both a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing the right to use the underlying asset. At the date of transition to IFRS, the group applied the transitional provision and measured lease liabilities at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee's incremental borrowing rate at the date of transition. Right-of-use assets were measured at an amount equal to the corresponding lease liabilities.
The group subleases part of its leased office space under a back-to-back agreement. Under N-GAAP, this sublease is classified as an operating lease, and the lease payments received are presented as a reduction in other operating expenses. Under IFRS, the sublease is classified as a finance lease. The portion of the right-of-use asset that is subject to the sublease is derecognized and a finance lease receivable is recognized. Interest income on the finance lease receivable is recognized in the statement of profit or loss over the lease term.
As a result, the group recognized lease liabilities of NOK 21,5 m (31 December 2024: NOK 16,4 m) and right-of-use assets of NOK 17,3 m (31 December 2024: NOK 13,1 m) at the date of transition to IFRS. The difference between lease liabilities and right-of-use assets at transition is due to the sublease classified as a finance lease. A finance lease receivable of NOK 4,2 m was recognized (31 December 2024: NOK 2,8 m).
In 2024, the group recognized lease payments of NOK 9,7 m and lease payments received under the sublease agreement of NOK 1,6 m as operating expenses in the N-GAAP financial statements. These amounts have been adjusted in the IFRS financial statements. Under IFRS, an amount of NOK 7,6 m is recognized as depreciation of right-of-use assets, and NOK 1,3 m is recognized as interest expense on lease liabilities. In addition, NOK 0,2 m is recognized as interest income on the finance lease receivable. The resulting adjustment to income tax expense is NOK 0,1 m.
B: Capitalized development
Under N-GAAP, NOK 8,7 m (31 December 2024: NOK 6,4 m) of expenses incurred in connection with the configuration and customization of SaaS and similar arrangements—where the Group did not control the underlying assets—were capitalized as intangible assets. Under IFRS, these expenses do not qualify for recognition as intangible assets and are instead recognized as operating expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
During 2024, expenses amounting to NOK 1,4 m were capitalized under N-GAAP, and amortization of the accumulated capitalized expenses amounted to NOK 3,9 m. Under IFRS, the capitalized amount is recognized as an operating expense in the statement of profit or loss, and the amortization is reversed (adjusted to zero).
C: Financial derivatives at fair value
The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts and foreign exchange put option contracts is recognized under IFRS, but was not recognized under N-GAAP. Under N-GAAP, these contracts were designated as hedging instruments. Under IFRS, hedge accounting may only be applied if specific qualifying criteria are met. As these criteria were not met at the date of transition to IFRS, hedge accounting is not applied in the IFRS financial statements.
At the date of transition to IFRS, the fair value of the forward foreign exchange contracts and foreign exchange put option contracts was zero (31 December 2024: NOK 1,5 m). During 2024, the effect of these contracts was NOK 0,7 m, recognized as financial income under N-GAAP. Under IFRS, a net gain/loss of NOK 2,2 m on these contracts is recognized as financial income.
D: Revenue recognition
Under N-GAAP, certain arrangements with customers involving market support are presented as marketing expenses when the related costs are incurred. Under IFRS, such arrangements are treated as variable consideration related to the sale of devices and are therefore recognized as a reduction in revenue at the time of the sale.
At the date of transition to IFRS, the accumulated provision for market support was estimated at NOK 4,6 m. During 2024, a total of NOK 16,1 m in market support was deducted from revenue in accordance with IFRS, while NOK 15,7 m was recognized as marketing expenses under N-GAAP and adjusted in the IFRS financial statements. The net effect on EBITDA in 2024 was a negative NOK 0,4 m, and the provision for market support increased by the same amount to NOK 5,1 m as of 31 December 2024.
E: Goodwill amortization
Under N-GAAP, goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over 10 years. Under IFRS, goodwill is not amortized but is instead subject to annual impairment testing. In 2024, goodwill amortization of NOK 19,1 m was recognized under N-GAAP. These amortizations are reversed under IFRS, resulting in an increase in goodwill of NOK 19,1 m as of 31 December 2024, compared to the N-GAAP financial statements.
F: Transactions costs in business combinations
Transaction costs in business combinations are expensed as incurred under IFRS. Under N-GAAP, such costs were included in the purchase consideration. In connection with the Doro acquisition, certain transaction-related costs incurred in 2024 were recognized as prepaid expenses in the N-GAAP balance sheet as of 31 December 2024. In the IFRS financial statements, these costs - totaling NOK 7,1 m - are recognized as other operating expenses.
G: Income tax expenses and deferred tax
The various transitional adjustments resulted in changes to temporary differences, and the Group is required to recognize the related deferred tax effects. These deferred tax adjustments are recognized in accordance with the underlying transaction—typically in either other equity or profit or loss, depending on the nature of the original adjustment.
H: Exchange differences on translation of foreign operations
Exchange differences arising on the translation of a foreign entity are recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI) under IFRS. In 2024, under N-GAAP, translation differences were recognized directly in equity (share premium). As part of the transition to IFRS, cumulative currency translation differences for all foreign operations are deemed to be zero as of 1 January 2024. From that date onward, exchange differences are accumulated in a separate reserve.
Cash flow
Under N-GAAP, leases are classified as either finance leases or operating leases. Cash flows arising from operating lease payments are classified as operating activities in the statement of cash flows. Under IFRS, lessees generally apply a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases and recognize lease liabilities. Cash flows related to the principal portion of lease payments are classified as financing activities. Payments received under the sublease agreement, which is classified as a finance lease under IFRS, were classified as operating activities in the statement of cash flows under N-GAAP. Under IFRS, these cash flows are classified as financing activities.
As a result, for the year ended 31 December 2024, cash outflows from operating activities decreased by NOK 8.1 m, while cash outflows from financing activities increased by the same amount.

NOTE 12.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING THE TRANSITION TO IFRS
The section below provides supplementary information related to the Group's transition from N-GAAP to IFRS, including a description of significant accounting policies applied that are not disclosed elsewhere, as well as detailed information on lease accounting.
NOTE 12.3.1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND CRITICAL JUDGMENT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES - REVENUE
Revenue from contracts with customers comprises revenue from the sale of devices and related services. The services offered include mobile subscription plans, and other services. The Group's products and services are distributed through online channels, a broad retail network, and telecom partners.
Revenue is recognized when the Group satisfies the performance obligation in the contract, either at a point in time or over time. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for the transfer of goods or services to the customer.
Sale of devices
Revenue from the sale of devices is recognized at the point in time when control is transferred to the customer, which typically occurs when the goods are handed over to the transport carrier.
Determining the transaction price
Contracts with wholesalers and mobile operators may include various discounts and bonuses. The transaction price is estimated using the expected value method, based on accumulated experience with these arrangements.
Marketing contributions and other amounts payable to customers that do not represent consideration for distinct goods or services provided by the customer to the Group are accounted for as sales incentives. These are treated as variable consideration and reduce the transaction price. The reduction in revenue is recognized at the same time as the related device sale, with the amount estimated based on historical experience and current expectations.
Revenue is only recognized to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal of the recognized amount will not occur.
Refund liabilities
Revenue is presented net of expected refunds on consumer sales that include a right of return. The estimate for returns is determined using the expected value method, based on historical experience.
Warranty claims on devices sold
The Group's obligation to repair or replace defective products under standard warranty terms is recognized as a provision. The estimate is based on historical data related to service and warranty repairs, and the related cost is presented within other operating expenses.
Mobile subscriptions
Revenue from mobile subscriptions is recognized over time. Subscription revenue that consists of fixed payments for a defined period—such as a monthly subscription fee—is recognized on a straight-line basis over the subscription period.
Other services
Other services include Xplora premium services, which provide users with broader access to the Xplora Activity Platform, as well as B2B service revenue and service fees charged to customers who have opted for an alternative mobile subscription provider. Revenue from these services is recognized over time, in line with the period in which the services are provided.
Payment terms
Payment terms vary depending on the sales channel. For online sales, including the Group's own webshop and third-party platforms, payment is generally received upfront at the time of purchase. For certain distributors and invoicing arrangements, payment is facilitated through financing partners. Sales through retail and B2B partners follow agreed contractual terms, typically within defined credit periods.
Critical judgements and significant accounting estimates
Discounts, marketing contributions, and returns are estimated and deducted from revenue at the time of sale. These estimates are based on assumptions about future outcomes and may differ from the actual results. Revenue is recognized only to the extent that it is highly probable that a significant reversal of the recognized amount will not occur.
The expense related to warranty claims is estimated at the time of sale based on the Group's historical experience.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES – INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND GOODWILL
Goodwill
Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred, the amount recognized for non-controlling interests, and any previously held equity interest, over the net fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units (CGU) that are expected to benefit from the combination. A CGU to which goodwill is allocated cannot be larger than an operating segment. The Group has allocated goodwill to its operating segments for impairment testing purposes.
Identifiable intangible assets acquired in business combinations
Acquired intangible assets comprise customer contracts/customer relationships and trade names. Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination are recognized at their fair value at the acquisition date and are subsequently amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.
Capitalized development
Capitalized development costs relate to the development of new products and services, including technology platforms and applications that support the Group's commercial offerings. Expenses related to development activities are capitalized as intangible assets when it is highly probable that the projects will generate future economic benefits for the Group and the associated costs can be measured reliably. Capitalized development costs are recognized at cost, less accumulated amortization and any impairment losses, and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset.
Critical judgements and significant accounting estimates
The group tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and tests were performed as of 31 December 2023 and 31 December 2024. For these tests the recoverable amount of the cash-generating units (CGUs) was determined based on value in use calculations. The calculations require the use of assumptions and estimates related to future cash flows and discount rate. The recoverable amount is sensitive to the discount rate used for the discounted cash flow model as well as the expected future net cash-inflows and the growth rate use for extrapolation purposes.
The useful lives of customer contracts/customer relationships, trade names, and capitalized development are based on management's best estimates. The useful life of customer contracts/customer relationships was four years and ended during Q1 2025. Capitalized development expenses relate to the development of new products and the platforms used by the Group to generate revenue. The estimated useful life of capitalized development is four years, while the useful life of the Doro trade name is estimated to be
indefinite. A significant change in the estimated useful lives of these assets could have a material impact on profit or loss.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES – BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
The acquisition method of accounting is applied to all business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquired business, any equity interests issued by the Group, the fair value of any contingent consideration arrangements, and the fair value of any pre-existing equity interests in the subsidiary.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions, measured at their fair value at the acquisition date. The Group recognizes non-controlling interests in the acquired entity on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the acquired entity's net identifiable assets.
Critical judgements and significant accounting estimates
Accounting for acquisitions requires the use of significant judgement and estimates, particularly in the identification and valuation of intangible assets such as customer contracts/customer relationships and trademarks. Incorrect identification or inaccurate valuation of intangible assets may lead to material misstatements in the allocation of the purchase price, affecting the amounts recognized as goodwill, amortization, and future impairment charges.
NOTE 12.3.2 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Accounting policies
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
Financial assets
Financial assets include trade and other receivables, a hybrid loan, finance lease receivables, and cash and bank balances. Financial assets are classified based on the Group's business model for managing the assets and the contractual characteristics of the cash flows.
Financial assets measured at fair value through profit and loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried at fair value in the statement of financial position, with net changes in fair value recognized in the statement of profit or loss. The hybrid loan is classified as measured at fair value through profit or loss. The loan is a debt instrument with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.
Financial assets measured at amortized cost
Financial assets measured at amortized cost are non-derivative financial assets with contractual cash flows that consist solely of payments of principal and interest on the outstanding nominal amount, and that are held with the objective of collecting the contractual cash flows. Except for the hybrid loan, all of the Group's financial assets are classified as measured at amortized cost.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities at amortized cost are non-derivative financial liabilities with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. The Group's financial liabilities - comprising borrowings, lease liabilities and trade and other payables - are classified as measured at amortized cost. These liabilities are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. They are presented as current liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date, in which case they are classified as non-current liabilities.
Derivatives and hedging
The Group enters into currency forward contracts and currency option contracts, which are initially recognized at fair value on the date the contracts are entered into and subsequently remeasured to fair value at the end of each reporting period.
At inception, the Group designates derivative contracts as either hedges of highly probable forecast transactions or firm commitments (cash flow hedges), or derivative financial instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting.
For derivatives that do not meet the hedge accounting criteria, changes in fair value are recognized directly in profit or loss.
Cash flow hedges
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in the cash flow hedge reserve within equity. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is recognized immediately in profit or loss. In the case of currency options, the time value of the option is excluded from the hedge designation, and only the intrinsic value is designated as the hedging instrument. Changes in the time value of the option are recognized in the cost of hedging reserve within other comprehensive income (OCI).
The cumulative gain or loss on a derivative that is deferred in equity is reclassified to profit or loss - classified as revenue or expense - in the same period in which the hedged item affects the income statement. When the hedged item results in the recognition of a non-financial asset (such as inventory), the deferred hedging gains or losses, as well as the deferred time value of any related option contracts, are included in the initial cost of the asset. These deferred amounts are ultimately recognized in profit or loss when the hedged item impacts the income statement—for example, through cost of goods sold.
When a hedging instrument expires, is sold or terminated, or when the hedge no longer qualifies for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss and deferred costs of hedging recognized in equity at that time remain in equity until the forecast transaction occurs, resulting in the recognition of a non-financial asset, such as inventory. If the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss and deferred costs of hedging previously recognized in equity are immediately reclassified to profit or loss.
Fair value measurement
The Group measures financial instruments, such as derivatives, at fair value at each balance sheet date. Valuation techniques are applied that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
All assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
- Level 1 Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
- Level 2 Valuation techniques with inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly
- Level 3 Valuation techniques with significant unobservable inputs
The Group's derivatives measured at fair value are classified within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, while other financial instruments measured at fair value are classified within level 3.
NOTE 12.3.3 LEASES
Accounting policies
The Group leases various offices, office equipment, office machines, and vehicles across the countries in which it operates. From the point in time the Group obtains the right to control the use of the leased asset, a right-of-use asset is recognized, measured at an amount equal to the corresponding lease liability. At the same time, a lease liability is recognized, measured at the present value of lease payments over the lease term.
Lease term
The lease term is the non-cancellable period of a lease, together with periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Group is reasonably certain not to exercise that option. Extension and termination options are included in a number of the Group's leases. The Group assesses each lease on an ongoing basis to determine whether significant events or changes in circumstances within its control have occurred that could affect its assessment of whether it is reasonably certain to exercise, or not exercise, such options. If such an event or change in circumstances occurs, the Group reassesses the lease term and recognizes any resulting adjustments to the lease liability and right-of-use asset accordingly.
Measurement
Contracts may contain both lease and non-lease components. The Group allocates the consideration in the contract to these components based on their relative stand-alone prices, or on estimated stand-alone prices when observable prices are not available. The non-lease components are presented as other operating expenses in the income statement.
The net present value of lease liabilities is based on the future fixed lease payments and variable lease payments that are linked to an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate in effect at the commencement date. The Group is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments resulting from changes in the applicable index or rate. When such adjustments take effect, the lease liability is reassessed, and any change is recognized as an adjustment to the corresponding right-of-use asset.
Interest rate
As the interest rate implicit in the lease is rarely readily determinable, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate to measure lease liabilities. The incremental borrowing rate is determined on a lease-by-lease basis. To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Group applies a build-up approach, starting with a risk-free interest rate relevant to the specific country and lease term. This rate is then adjusted for credit risk and leasespecific factors, such as the type and nature of the leased asset.
Exemptions
Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straight-line basis as other operating expenses in the income statement. Short-term leases are defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less and no purchase option. Low-value assets are defined as assets with a value below NOK 50k.
Subleases
For certain leased office spaces, the Group subleases separate areas to entities outside the Group. Subleases are classified as either finance leases or operating leases with reference to the right-of-use asset, not the underlying asset. A sublease is classified as a finance lease when a clearly identifiable part of the office space (in substance, a separate office unit) is subleased for the entire remaining term of the head lease. All other subleases are classified as operating leases.
For finance leases, the corresponding right-of-use asset is derecognized, and a finance lease receivable is recognized. Lease payments received reduce the finance lease receivable, and interest income on the receivable is recognized as financial income in the income statement.
Critical judgements and significant accounting estimates
The Group has applied judgement in assessing whether it is likely to exercise options to extend or terminate a lease. All factors that create an economic incentive to exercise options, such as the market conditions that impact the price, the entity's demand for office space, contractual incentives and penalties, are considered.
Right-of-use assets
In the tables below, other assets include machinery, equipment, and vehicles, while buildings comprise office space.
