1.5 Selected explanatory notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of June 30, 2023

1. Reporting entity

Agfa-Gevaert NV (the "Company") is a company domiciled in Belgium. The condensed interim financial statements of the Company as at and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group") and the Group's interest in associates. The consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the year ended December 31, 2022 are available on the Company's website: www.agfa.com.

2. Statement of compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union. They do not include all of the information required for the full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the year ended December 31, 2022. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on August 22, 2023.

3. Significant accounting policies

The Group has applied in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements the accounting policies and IFRS standards effective for the closing period June 2023. The accounting policies applied in these interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the Group's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2022.

Following new standards or amendments to IFRS are effective as from January 1, 2023 but are either not material or do not have a material impact on the Group's financial statements for the first half year of 2023. It relates to

  • IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts (issued on 18 May 2017); including Amendments to IFRS 17 (issued on 25 June 2020)
  • Amendments to IFRS 17 Insurance contracts: initial application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 Comparative information (issued on 9 December 2021)
  • Amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes: Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction (issued on 7 May 2021)
  • Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS Practice Statement 2: Disclosure of Accounting policies (issued on 12 February 2021)
  • Amendments to IAS 8 Accounting policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors: Definition of Accounting Estimates (issued on 12 February 2021)

The Group did not early adopt standards issued but not yet effective.

4. Functional and presentation currency

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in Euro, which is the Company's functional currency. All financial information presented in Euro has been rounded to the nearest million, except when otherwise indicated. Due to the use of rounding, the sum of line items presented in a table may not always match with (sub)totals as this total itself has been rounded to the nearest million and is not the sum of rounded data.

5. Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from estimates.

In preparing the condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2022.

6. Alternative performance measures

Management has presented the performance measures 'Adjusted EBIT' and 'Adjusted EBITDA' because it monitors these performance measures by division and believes that these measures are relevant to an understanding of the financial performance of the Group's operating segments.

'Adjusted EBIT' is the result from operating activities before restructuring and non-recurring items. 'Adjusted EBITDA' is the result from operating activities before depreciation, amortization, restructuring expenses and non-recurring items.

Restructuring expenses mainly relate to employee related termination costs. These costs are presented in other operating expenses.

During the first half year of 2023 restructuring costs amounted to 5 million Euro and mainly relate to employee termination costs. During the first half year of 2022 restructuring costs amounted to 6 million Euro and mainly relate to employee termination costs. These are comprised in other operating expenses (see note 7).

During the first half year of 2023, non-recurring costs amount to 15 million Euro and comprise Impairment losses on a right-of-use building in Germany amounting to 4 million Euro and costs related to strategic transformation projects of 10 million Euro. During the first half year of 2022, non-recurring costs amount to 13 million Euro and mainly relate to costs related to strategic transformation projects and other costs (stand-alone of Offset Solutions and changing the organizational structure into a lean structure).

Divestments 2023

On April 4th 2023, the Agfa-Gevaert Group completed the sale of its Offset Solutions division to the investment firm Aurelius Group at a consideration of 49 million Euro. In the second quarter of 2023 an amount of 10 million Euro was received which brings the outstanding receivable to 39 million Euro which is presented in 'Other receivables' on the balance sheet.

The sale of our Offset Solutions division is an important step in the transformation journey of Agfa. This transaction will allow Agfa to focus on other growing market segments, which is crucial for future success.

Under the terms of the share purchase agreement with Aurelius Group, the Agfa-Gevaert Group continues to provide certain consumables (including film) and services to its former division. In the financial statements of the Group this is presented in a new division called 'Contractor Operations & Services former Offset' or 'CONOPS'. CONOPS represents the supply of film and chemicals as well as a set of support services delivered by Agfa to Offset Solutions.

As of April 2023, the segment CONOPS represents income charged to the external party ECO3 and the related costs. Revenue represents the supply agreements, with the corresponding 'Cost of sales'. The income related to the support services is presented in Other Income, the corresponding costs are shown in the different SG&A lines. The comparative results for 2022 and the data for the first quarter 2023 are re-presented to reflect the post Closing relationships between the Agfa-Gevaert and the Aurelius Group. Whereas revenue for the second quarter 2023 results from invoicing to the third party ECO3, the revenues re-presented for 2022 and the first quarter 2023 reflect the relationship with the 'Discontinued operations'.

In the condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income the impact of the discontinued operations is presented separately from the continuing operations.

9. Reportable segments

The activities of the Group are grouped into four divisions: HealthCare IT, Digital Print & Chemicals, Radiology Solutions and Contractor operations & services (CONOPS – former Offset Solutions). This divisional structure is technology and solutions based and will allow the business to seek future partnerships.

The recent sale of the Offset Solutions division (now rebranded to ECO3) influences the way the Agfa-Gevaert Group reports its results. A new division called 'Contractor Operations & Services former Offset' or 'CONOPS' has been created and presents the impact of the supply of film and chemicals as well as a set of support services delivered by Agfa to Offset Solutions. Further information is provided under section 8 'Divested activities'.

The Group's management has identified the above four divisions as its operating segments. They equal the Groups reportable segments. To allow for a more accurate assessment of the performance of the operating segments, some costs of corporate functions at Group level (e.g. Investor relations, Corporate Finance, Internal Audit, Innovation Office, …) are not attributed to the operating segments. These costs are reported under 'Corporate Services'.

10. Impairment testing of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful life

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment at least annually and upon the occurrence of an indication of impairment. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to a cash-generating unit (CGU). The Group has identified its operating segments as cash-generating units.

Following goodwill and intangible assets are allocated to the cash generated units at June 2023 and December 2022:

At June 30, 2023 there are no indications for impairment of the goodwill. During the fourth quarter of 2023 – the timing Group's management has chosen to perform its annual impairment tests – formal impairment tests will be performed. In testing the goodwill for impairment, the carrying value of the assets of these CGU's will be compared with their recoverable amount. Recoverable amounts of the CGU's will generally be based upon a value in use calculation using the updated long-term business plans.

11. Proceeds / repayments from borrowings

Agfa-Gevaert NV has a three-year multi-currency revolving credit facility of 230 million Euro at its discretion. This facility is unsecured, runs until March 2026 and will be used for general corporate purposes. The applicable interest rate is Euribor, Libor or its equivalent replacement benchmark rate (Reuters) and a margin. At June 30, 2023 there were drawdowns under this facility amounting to 30 million Euro (June 30, 2022: no drawdowns).

In the consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ending June 30, 2023, the net change of borrowings amounted to 30 million Euro.

12. Liabilities for post-employment and long-term termination benefit plans

in million Euro June 30, 2023 Dec 31, 2022

Net liability (asset) for material countries 448 503
Net liability (asset) for non- material countries 5 10
Long-term termination benefit plans 4 5
Total net liability (asset) 457 518

For the measurement of its post-employment benefits at June 30, 2023, the Group has applied the requirements of IAS19 (revised 2011).

During the first half year of 2023, the decrease in the carrying amount of the defined benefit obligation for the material countries, being 54 million Euro is explained by a defined benefit cost included in profit or loss of 25 million Euro, employer contributions and benefits paid directly by the Company amounting to 33 million Euro, a divestment of Offset Solutions related pension liabilities related to material countries amounting to 46 million euro. The evolution of the liability related to non-material countries is affected by the divestment of the Offset Solutions amounting to 5 million Euro. In total pension liabilities divested amount to 51 million Euro (note 8).

As per 30 June 2023, no actuarial calculations have been performed. Detailed calculations are performed at year-end. Therefore, in order to understand the Group's sensitivity to the evolution of the discount rates – in general the most decisive factor for the height of the net pension liability – we refer to the Annual Report 2022, disclosure note 13 'Post-employment Benefit Plans' to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

On bank loans (5) (1)

Other finance income (expense) – net comprises interest received/paid on other assets and liabilities not part of the net financial debt position such as the net interest cost of defined benefit plans and the interest component of long-term termination benefits; exchange results on nonoperating activities; changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments hedging non-operating activities; other finance income (expense).

The increase in other finance expenses in the first half-year of 2023 compared to the first half-year of 2022 is explained by an increase of the interest component on defined and other employee benefits (5 million Euro), the reclass of exchange losses on disposal of a foreign operation in Q2 2022 (-3 million Euro) partly offset by the negative evolution of exchange and revaluation results on non-operating activities compared to Q2 2022 (4 million Euro).

15. Business Combinations

During the first half year of 2022, the Agfa Group acquired Inca Digital Printers. The acquisition encompasses the portfolio of existing high speed multi pass printers, including a strong service organization, a newly designed line of single pass printers for several packaging applications as well as a joint development of a customized in-line Print Engine in collaboration with leading corrugator manufacturer BHS Corrugated.

Inca Digital Printers is a Cambridge UK based leading developer and manufacturer of advanced high-speed printing and production technologies for sign & display applications as well as for the rapidly growing digital printing market for packaging. Inca is an ideal partner for Agfa, bringing a complementary portfolio of printing solutions of the highest standard and a strong technological platform to launch robust single pass printing presses for the packaging market.

The acquisition comprises the purchase of the shares of two UK based companies, a US business asset purchase and the purchase of assigned intellectual property. The purchase price amounted to 54 million Euro.

Intangible assets identified relate to trademarks, being the brand name INCA and Onset and technological IP, being the Onset multi-pass technology which have both been valued using the relief from royalty method. Technological IP rights will be amortized over a period of 7 years. The brand names will be amortized over an estimated useful life of 6 years. The acquired 'assigned intellectual property' will be amortized over a period of 10 years.

The goodwill on acquisition (2 million Euro) mainly relates to operating synergies and workforce. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Inventories have been valued at fair value being the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less estimated costs of completion and sale and a reasonable profit margin based on the effort required to sell the inventory.

Acquisition related costs were immaterial.

The gross contractual amount of the receivables acquired amount to 4 million Euro which equals its fair value. There are no acquired receivables at acquisition date for which the contractual cash flows are not expected to be received.

The acquisition had the following effect on the condensed consolidated statement of financial position and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows:

16. Contingencies

There were no significant changes in contingencies as those disclosed in the consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the year ended December 31, 2022.

17. Related party transactions

Transactions with Directors and members of the Executive Management

For the six months ended June 30, 2023 there are compared to last year no significant changes in the ordinary compensation of the Executive Management and other key management personnel.

As of June 30, 2023 there were no loans outstanding to members of the Executive Management nor to members of the Board of Directors.

18. Financial instruments

Financial instruments include a broad range of financial assets and liabilities. They include both primary financial instruments such as cash, receivables, debt and shares in another entity and derivative financial instruments.

Financial assets have decreased with 220 million Euro, from 555 million Euro at 31 December 2022 to 335 million Euro at 30 June 2023. This evolution is mainly attributable to a decrease in trade receivables by 139 million Euro from 300 million Euro at 31 December 2022 to 161 million at 30 June 2023, which is related to the fact that a major part of the business was disposed off. An amount of 142 million Euro trade receivables has been divested (note 8). Also the cash and cash equivalents decreased with 94 million Euro from 138 million Euro at December 31, 2022 to 44 million at June 30, 2023.

At the liability side, the carrying amount of financial instruments have decreased by 111 million Euro from 322 million Euro at 31 December 2022 to 211 million Euro at 30 June 2023 which is mainly explained by the evolution of the trade payables that have decreased with 122 million euro. This is explained by the sale of the former Offset Solutions business where an amount of 95 million Euro trade payables has been divested (note 8). Other liabilities reflected in the column 'Mandatory at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL)' relate to a deposit of 3,4 ton silver placed with a metal recovery and refining company valued at quoted market price and valued at fair value (June 30, 2023: 2 million Euro; December 31, 2022: 2 million Euro).

Basis for determining fair values

Significant methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of financial instruments are as follows.

The fair value of investments in equity securities is determined by reference to their quoted market price at the reporting date.

The fair value of forward exchange contracts and swap contracts is calculated using observable forward exchange rates and yield curve data at reporting date. The fair value of swap agreements is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on quoted swap rates.

The fair value of trade and other receivables and trade and other payables is not disclosed as it mainly relates to short-term receivables and payables for which their carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value. The fair value of receivables under finance lease is based on the present value of future minimum lease receivables discounted at a market rate of interest for similar assets.

The fair value of financial liabilities is calculated based on the present value of future principal and interest cash flows, discounted at market rates of interest at the reporting date.

The fair value for the current bank liabilities approximates nominal amounts excluding transaction costs, as drawdowns are made for short periods.

The table on the following page shows the carrying amounts and fair values of financial assets and liabilities by category and a reconciliation to the corresponding line items in the statements of financial position.

Fair Value hierarchy:

(1) Fair value hierarchy 1 means that fair value is determined based on quoted prices in active markets.

(2) Fair value hierarchy 2 means that fair value is determined based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the related asset or liability.

(3) Fair value hierarchy 3 means that fair value is determined based on inputs that are not based on observable market data

* The Group has not separately disclosed the fair value of trade and other receivables and the fair value of trade and other payables as the carrying amounts of these assets and liabilities is a reasonable approximation of fair value.

** Transaction costs are included in the initial measurement of the financial liability (1 million euro)

*** Related to contingent consideration from business combinations (performance based component). The fair value of the contingent consideration from business combinations is calculated using a discounted cash flow model. The valuation model considers the present value of the expected future payments, discounted using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Significant observable inputs are the expected cash flows and the risk-adjusted discount rate. The estimated fair value would increase (decrease) if the expected performances are higher (lower).
