LETTER FROM THE CEO
Dear stakeholders,
2025 marked a decisive shift for Elektroimportøren. Following a demanding 2024, we delivered consistent improvements across every quarter of the year. Revenue grew, gross margins strengthened, and operating performance improved steadily. Cash flow and cost discipline also continued to develop in the right direction. Continued margin expansion and disciplined execution remain our key priorities going forward.
The measures we implemented during 2023 and 2024 are now clearly delivering results. We have sharpened our commercial execution, improved category management, and strengthened financial control. Looking back, 2025 represents a year of clear and measurable improvement across both operations and commercial performance.
Market conditions remained challenging in 2025. Consumer sentiment continued to be subdued, and housing turnover and renovation activity were weaker than normal. Despite this, we achieved growth in both Norway and Sweden.
In Norway, we continued to gain B2B market share and outperformed the wholesale market every month in 2025. In Sweden, Elbutik delivered strong margin improvements driven by better category mix, pricing and campaign execution, while also growing sales well ahead of the market. Overall, these results represent encouraging progress in Sweden with improved margins and execution, while further work remains to reach our targeted profitability levels.
We opened two new stores in Norway during 2025, in Lillehammer and Bergen. Both openings exceeded our expectations and delivered strong early traction in both B2C and B2B. Toward year-end, we signed a lease for our second store in Sweden, laying the foundation for more structured expansion there.
Our physical stores continued to be a key growth driver in 2025. Store traffic increased quarter by quarter throughout 2025. Conversion rates improved, and average basket size increased. These are welcomed indicators of customer satisfaction and trust in our value proposition.
Online sales also performed well, especially during Black Week, where we achieved record-high activity in both countries. The combination of physical presence, strong digital capabilities and professional in-store expertise continues to differentiate us.
Growth was broad across categories. In Norway, EV chargers and smart home solutions showed the strongest year-on-year growth. In Sweden, cables and
electrical materials contributed most to revenue growth. Our own brand, Namron, continued to strengthen its position and supports both competitiveness and margin development.
Operationally, we improved supply chain management and stock discipline. Purchasing patterns were better aligned with seasonal demand, reducing volatility and improving working capital efficiency. Campaign planning and execution were strengthened across channels. Our B2B sales teams deepened customer relationships and increased visit frequency and improved customer loyalty.
We have combined growth initiatives with a conservative spending approach. Financial discipline remains firm, while we continue to invest where we see clear potential returns. This balance between control and ambition has been key to improving profitability.
Throughout the year, our employees have demonstrated professionalism, flexibility and strong customer focus. More than 70 percent of our in-store sales staff are educated electricians. Their competence and service mindset are central to our value proposition.
We close 2025 with stronger operations, improved commercial momentum and a more solid financial foundation. While we are encouraged by the progress achieved during the year, profitability is still not at the level we are targeting over time.
Despite continued market uncertainty, our concept has proven resilient and scalable. We are better positioned than a year ago and remain focused on further strengthening execution and delivering sustainable improvements in earnings.
I would like to thank all our employees for their dedication and hard work. Together, we have strengthened the company and built a robust platform for continued growth.

Sincerely,
Andreas Niss
CEO Elektroimportøren AS

KEY MILESTONES
Founded in Oslo in 1994, Elektroimportøren has consistently challenged traditional industry structures through innovation, transparency and accessibility.
The early introduction of e-commerce in 1996 laid the foundation for a strong digital platform, which today operates seamlessly alongside a nationwide physical store network in Norway. From 2014, the Group accelerated store expansion, strengthening local presence and distribution efficiency.
The establishment of the Namron brand marked a strategic shift towards product ownership and margin expansion, while recent years have seen further vertical integration through services and installations.
The acquisition of Elbutik in Sweden represents a key milestone in Elektroimportøren's growth strategy. Following operational improvements and cost adjustments, the Swedish platform is positioned to support further expansion and long-term value creation.

SUSTAINABILITY
Elektroimportøren operates in a global value chain where environmental and social impacts occur at several stages — from extraction of raw materials and product manufacturing to logistics, retail operations and the use and disposal of electrical equipment.
While our direct emissions are limited, our indirect impact through sourcing and product usage is significant. At the same time, electrification and energy efficiency are core drivers of our business model. By offering high-quality electrical products, specialist advice and installation services, we contribute to reducing energy consumption, improving safety and protecting long-term property values.
We therefore see sustainability both as a responsibility and as a commercial opportunity. Our ambition is to continuously improve transparency, reduce negative impacts where we can influence them, and expand our role as a provider of energy-efficient solutions.
Alongside the annual report, we have published our sustainability report for 2025, prepared in accordance with the ESRS framework. Through a double materiality assessment, we have identified the topics where we have the greatest impact and where the most significant risks and opportunities exist for the company. The report provides a complete overview of targets, actions and results.

Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
SUSTAINABILITY PRIORITIES
The sustainability strategy for 2025–2030 is built around three priorities that address areas where we have real influence and where the market is in motion.
-
Supporting electrification and energy efficiency: Energy use is a major source of emissions. Through supporting smart energy solutions such as smart home products, EV chargers, heating solutions, renewable energy energy and advisory services, we help customers reduce energy consumption and costs.
-
Building a more efficient and responsible value chain: Most emissions occur upstream in production and logistics. We work to improve supplier dialogue, reduce packaging and optimise logistics to improve resource efficiency over time.
-
Providing specialist advice and high-quality products: Electrical products with long lifetime and high safety standards reduce replacement needs and contribute to better resource utilisation. With a high share of skilled electricians in our stores, we help customers make informed and more sustainable choices.
| Strategic focus | Why it matters | Ambition |
|---|---|---|
| No. 1 supplier of energy efficient solutions in our market | Electrification and energy savings drive long-term demand and support lower emissions from buildings. | • Double revenue from energy-efficient solutions by 2030 |
| • Strengthen specialist advisory position | ||
| A sustainable and cost-efficient value chain | Most environmental impact occurs upstream in sourcing and logistics. Improving efficiency reduces both emissions and cost. | • Reduce loss and waste across the supply chain |
| • Improve transparency in Scope 3 emissions | ||
| No. 1 position as specialist advisor in our market | Skilled advice helps customers choose durable and energy-efficient products, reducing replacement needs. | • Increase customer perception of Elektroimportøren as specialist |
| • Maintain strong employee competence development |




Sustainability snapshot 2025
- Energy-efficient solutions represent ~30% of revenue, with an ambition to double sales by 2030
- First consolidated greenhouse gas accounting established covering Scope 1, 2 and selected Scope 3 emissions
- Majority of emissions linked to value chain and product use, confirming focus on sourcing and energy performance
- Strengthened supplier follow-up in China, including extended on-site presence and annual factory visits
- Continued development of smart home solutions and services supported by Skattefunn innovation funding
- High share of trained electricians supports safer installations and more energy-efficient customer choices
Supporting the energy transition
Sustainability is closely linked to Elektroimportøren's business model. Through high quality electrical products, specialist advice and installation services, the company contributes to energy efficiency, electrification and safer use of electricity in homes and buildings.
Energy-efficient solutions represent approximately 30% of total revenue and are among the categories experiencing structural growth. Elektroimportørens ambition is to double revenue from these solutions by 2030.
In 2025 the company strengthened its efforts in this area. Supported by innovation funding through the Skattefunn scheme, investments were made in developing products and services that simplify consumers' understanding of energy efficiency. A new smart home portfolio under the brand Simplify by Namron, was developed for gradual launch, alongside increased internal training and service development.
While direct environmental impact from own operations is limited, the company influences emissions and resource use through sourcing, logistics and product usage. Sustainability efforts therefore focus on areas where Elektroimportøren can have meaningful impact and support long-term value creation.

Climate accounts
In 2025 Elektroimportøren established its first consolidated greenhouse gas inventory covering Scope 1, Scope 2 and selected Scope 3 categories.
The results confirm that direct operational emissions are limited, while most of the company's climate impact occurs in the upstream value chain. Emissions are primarily linked to the production of purchased goods and related transport and distribution activities. The inventory represents an important step in strengthening transparency and improving the company's understanding of where emissions occur across the value chain.
| Green house gas emissions for Scope 1,2 and 3 | Tonnes CO₂ | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Scope 1 & 2 Emissions | 88 | 0.3 % |
| Scope 3 Purchased goods and services | 13,315 | 43.6 % |
| Scope 3 Use of sold products | 15,008 | 49.1 % |
| Scope 3 End-of-life treatment of sold products | 2,127 | 7.0 % |
| Total GHG emissions, location-based | 30,538 | 100.0 % |
Responsible value chain
Elektroimportøren sources products globally and recognizes elevated sustainability risks in parts of the upstream value chain. Product safety and health and safety are fundamental to us, both for customers using our products and for employees throughout the value chain. We set strict requirements for quality, documentation, and safety standards, and conduct annual controls and tests to ensure our products meet all applicable requirements. Our responsibility extends throughout the value chain, from production to installation and use.
Manufacturing in certain regions of China is commonly assessed as higher risk in international frameworks for responsible business conduct. The company therefore maintains close follow-up of key suppliers and has dedicated internal resources focused on supplier cooperation and product development in China. In 2025, a member of the supply chain team spent approximately three months in China working directly with manufacturers on Namron product development and follow-up of working conditions. Elektroimportøren prioritizes collaboration with modern production facilities and conducts regular visits to major suppliers each year. Efforts to reduce packaging, optimize logistics and improve product durability contribute both to lower environmental impact and improved cost efficiency.
In 2025, it was discovered that a product supplied by the Norwegian vendor R&D Sourcing contained asbestos. The product was immediately withdrawn from the market, and all affected customers and partners were notified. The incident was taken very seriously and triggered extensive internal work. As a result, we have significantly strengthened our efforts on due diligence in the value chain. This includes expanded controls also for Norwegian suppliers, with more thorough reviews of production processes, documentation, and testing regimes. We have also tightened our routines for product control. The Procon case has highlighted the importance of continuous improvement and vigilance in the value chain, and has elevated product safety as an even more central focus area in our sustainability strategy.
People and competence
Employees play a key role in enabling sustainable choices. A high share of trained electricians in stores supports safe installations and helps customers select durable and energy-efficient solutions. Maintaining strong competence development, engagement and safe working conditions remains a priority.
Opportunities and risks
The transition towards more energy-efficient buildings represents a clear commercial opportunity. Demand for smart home solutions, energy resilience and storage solutions, renewable energy, EV charging and energy-saving products is expected to grow over time.
At the same time, the company is exposed to sustainability-related risks such as regulatory changes, supply chain disruption and price volatility in key materials. Sustainability considerations are increasingly integrated into strategic planning and supplier management.
Priorities going forward
Elektroimportøren will continue to expand sales of energy-efficient solutions, improve climate transparency and strengthen supplier engagement. Sustainability remains an evolving area, and capabilities and data quality will be further developed over time.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS REPORT
Operations and locations
The Elektroimportøren group consists of Elektroimportøren AS, the parent company for Elektroimportøren Holding AS, Elektroimportøren Norge AS, Namron AS, Spoton AS, Enelco AB and Elbutik Scandinavia AB, together defined as 'the Group'. Elektroimportøren AS is a limited-liability company with its head office in Oslo, Norway. The Group is listed on the Euronext Growth stock exchange. The Group operates in Norway and Sweden.
During the financial year, the Group acquired the remaining 8% of the shares in Spoton AS and changed the strategy for services. The Spot-on concept is now focusing on streamlining the delivery of services to our private customers in tight cooperation with our B2B customers. As of year-end, all subsidiaries are 100% owned by the Group.
The Group sells electrical materials, lighting, and other electro installation products to private consumers and to the professional market through online and physical stores. During 2025 two new stores was opened (Lillehammer and Midtun in Norway), and at year end 2025 the Group has 32 physical stores, 31 stores in Norway and one store in Sweden, in addition to the online stores.
The financial statements for 2025 are reported in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
Going concern
In accordance with the Accounting Act § 4-5, we confirm that the financial statements have been prepared under the assumption of going concern. This assumption is based on forecasts for the year 2026 and the Group's long-term strategic forecasts. The Group's economic and financial position is good.
Review of the consolidated financial statements
Revenue grew 9.9% to NOK 1,788 million (2024: NOK 1,627 million) and most product categories contributed to growth. The company has conducted improvement projects within many areas in order to restore acceptable profitability. Thus, the operating profit improved from NOK 39 million to NOK 77 million. Profit for the year was NOK 32 million compared to NOK 42 million in 2024. The difference was mainly due to nonrecurring financial income in 2024. The overall performance was driven by higher sales, improved gross margins and a continuous focus on cost efficiency. The like-for-like sales growth was 5.6%.
In Sweden, Elbutik has delivered revenue growth, margin improvements and cost control during 2025, which strengthens our confidence in the scalability of our business model within the Swedish market.
Net cash flow from operating activities amounted to NOK 160 million, while profit before taxes was NOK 39 million. The variance is mainly due to depreciation, changes in working capital and other non-cash items.
Total capital expenditure for the Group in 2025 was NOK 20 million.
Total cash and cash equivalents as of 31 December 2025 were NOK 150 million, and the Group's ability to self-finance investments is satisfying.
The Group's financial position is strong, supported by a solid balance sheet and a newly refinanced borrowing facility. The Group's equity ratio at 31 December 2025 is 44.4%.
Review of the Company financial statements
Elektroimportøren AS, the parent company of the Group, has no revenue but receives interest income from loans to subsidiaries. Profit for the year was NOK 16 million (NOK 31 million in 2024). Cash flow from operating activities was NOK 16 million, while profit before taxes was NOK 21 million. Net cash at year-end was NOK 0 million.
The Board of Directors proposes the following appropriation of the profit after tax of NOK 16 million: NOK 20 million to be distributed as dividend, with the deficit of NOK 4 million to be covered by a transfer from other equity.
Future outlook
Despite uncertain geopolitical situation and volatile market conditions during the financial year, the market fundamentals remain strong, and structural trends such as digitalization, electrification of society, climate change and new EU regulations for energy efficiency are expected to support demand growth moving forward. The Board recognizes the importance of further innovating the company's offerings, particularly in the smart home category and energy solutions.
We anticipate increased demand for the Group's products driven by broader electrification trends. The Group plans to open new physical stores in Norway and Sweden in 2026, with further expansion in the coming years in line with internal profitability and return thresholds.
There are uncertainties relating to how the market will develop due to the ongoing war in Ukraine, geopolitical tension, trade tariffs, interest levels and general price increases. Consequently, developments in the broader economic environment may impact short-term performance.
Financial risk
The Group's activities expose it to certain financial risks including market risk (such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, raw material and transportation risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
Foreign exchange risk
The Group conducts certain purchase transactions denominated in foreign currencies, resulting in exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. These exposures arise from inventory purchases, where most of the Group's exposure being to USD. The Group's currency strategy included hedging of future purchases in foreign currency through fx contracts. The main exposure is NOK against USD. The Group's risk management policy is to hedge up to 50% of forecast US dollar cash flows for inventory purchases up to 12 months.
Further, the Group's revenue is exposed to fluctuations in SEK. Both revenue and operating expenses are incurred in local currency, reducing the exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations in the statement of profit or loss.
Interest risk
The Group's interest rate risk arises primarily on loans and other borrowings, all of which are at floating rates of interest and which therefore expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. The Group has a floating interest rate for NOK 140 million of outstanding long-term debt and NOK 40 million in short term debt to financial institutions.
Raw material and transportation risk
Raw material prices and transportation costs represent a significant risk to the group's margin development. Volatility in raw material prices is primarily driven by a tightening balance between global supply and demand. In addition, elevated petroleum prices have contributed to a material increase in both sea and road transportation costs, including higher fuel and bunker surcharges.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Group's receivables from consumers. Most of the revenue are from direct cash settlement from the customer. The Group's trade receivables include balances due from sales to business-to-business consumers as well as public authorities and departments. The credit procedures are centralised, and customers must pass an external credit rating to be granted a credit limit. The Group's exposure to credit risk is regularly monitored and the Group's policy is updated as appropriate.
Historically, the extent of losses has been small. As of 31 December 2025, the risk for losses on receivables is considered to be moderate, and the Group holds a provision of NOK 2 million in the balance sheet that should be adequate to cover the risk for losses. No agreements have been made on netting or financial instruments that reduce the credit risk.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset. The Group manages its exposure to liquidity risk by reviewing regularly the long-term and short-term cash flow projections for the business against the resources available to it. In order to ensure that sufficient funds are available for ongoing and future developments, the Group has established adequate flexibility through overdraft facility and long-term loan. To the extent of the board of directors'
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
knowledge, the above-mentioned risk factors represent the most material financial risk factors that may be of importance in order to evaluate the company's assets, liabilities, financial position and profits.
Working environment and employees
There are no employees in the parent company. The number of employees in the Group at the end of 2025 were 575, of which 90 women. The leave of absence due to illness totalled 6.9% of the permanent workforce. This is a decrease compared to 2024 (from 8.1%). Sick leave is monitored through the year and actions are taken in relation to the sick leave that the company can influence. 4.3% of the absence was long-term.
No serious work-related accidents or incidents resulting in significant material damage or personal injury have occurred or been reported during the year. The working environment is considered good, with ongoing initiatives aimed at continuous improvement. The annual employee survey indicates a modest increase in overall satisfaction compared to last year, in line with the Group's overall positive development. The working environment is assessed to be in line with industry standards.
The directors and officers of Elektroimportøren AS are covered under a "Directors and Officers Liability Insurance". The insurance cover any claim brought against directors or officers for alleged wrongful acts in connection with their positions, to the point where any culpability for wrongdoing is established. The insurance provided does not extend to claims arising from fraud or dishonesty. The officers and directors of the parent company and all subsidiaries are covered by the insurance including employees in managerial positions.
Gender equality and discrimination
The Group aims to be a workplace that ensures full gender equality. There shall be no discrimination due to gender in areas like salaries, promotions and recruitment.
Traditionally, the Group has been dominated by men in relation to industry and history but has nevertheless a fair share of women. Working time arrangements are set by the various positions and are independent of gender.
Key figures:
- Employees in the Group comprise 485 men and 90 women at the end of the year
- Temporarily employed (including temps from agencies) during the year have been 154 (154), of which 13% women
- Part-time employees constitute 79, of which 12% are women
- The average number of weeks of family-leave for women is 19 and 12 weeks for men.
The different roles and positions in physical stores, in the central warehouse and at headquarters are defined according to the concrete needs in the different parts of the Group's operation. All stores have the same setup. The Group prioritizes employing full-time staff but requires some part-time employees to accommodate long store opening hours, holiday coverage, and seasonal fluctuations.
The Discrimination Act's objective is to promote gender equality, ensure equal opportunities and rights and to prevent discrimination due to ethnicity, national origin, descent, skin colour, language, religion, and faith. The Group's goal is to be a workplace where there is no discrimination of any kind, also including functional disabilities.
We have established a set of guidelines for all employees to ensure equality concerning gender, ethnicity, age etc. (Code of conduct). In recruiting we emphasise to secure a balance of gender.
We carry out regular employee surveys to ensure that we continue to have a workplace characterised by a lack of harassment, conflicts, and inequality. We have defined key roles within the Group, and due to the nature of our business, most employees fall into the following categories:
- Warehouse operation, 7 women and 22 men, where men earn 4% more than woman. This variance is based on difference in working experience and not the gender.
- Sales force in stores (skilled electricians), 11 women and 204 men, where women earn equal to men. Within the group, salary differences are based on difference in working experience and not the gender.
- Store managers, 4 women and 26 men, where men earn 2% more than the women. Some of the store managers have significant longer experience, and this is reflected in the yearly salaries for these managers. If we keep them out of the calculation, there are no significant variance between the genders on yearly salaries.

Environmental reporting
Elektroimportøren has a global and complex value chain, with both positive and negative impacts on environmental and social dimensions. During 2025, the Group continued to strengthen its sustainability efforts and improve insight into its environmental footprint. Greenhouse gas emissions covering Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions were established in accordance with the GHG Protocol, providing a more complete understanding of the Group's climate impact and key reduction opportunities. The Group also updated its assessment of sustainability-related risks and opportunities across the value chain.
We see the sustainable transition primarily as a business opportunity for Elektroimportøren, both in the B2B and B2C segments. The electrification of society
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
and the need for more energy-efficient homes create a growing market for smart and energy-efficient solutions. In 2025, the Group was granted SkatteFUNN funding for the period 2025–2028 to support the development of energy-smart solutions, services and customer guidance aimed at increasing adoption of energy-efficient technologies. As part of this strategy, a new range of smart home products was launched under the private label Simplify by Namron.
Among other ESG highlights from 2025, the Group continued its work to optimise Namron packaging to reduce plastic use, transport inefficiencies and waste. The SmartWatt energy management solution was implemented in additional stores as part of the target to reduce energy consumption in retail operations. The Group also conducted visits and inspections of key manufacturing partners producing Namron products to ensure compliance with the company's Code of Conduct and responsible sourcing standards.
Looking ahead, the Group will continue to build knowledge, improve data quality and further develop initiatives that reduce environmental impact while strengthening the company's position within energy-efficient solutions.
Events after the balance sheet date
The Company has agreed with DNB Bank ASA to refinance its existing bank facilities into (i) a new NOK 180 million term loan (3+1+1 year) and (ii) a new NOK 120 million overdraft facility.
- The facilities will have a NIBD/EBITDA (based on NGAAP) covenant of 3.5x in Q1 – Q3 and 3.0x in Q4. In addition, the facilities will have a liquidity covenant of minimum NOK 40 million on the basis of cash or undrawn amount under the overdraft facility.
- There will be no amortization, but bullet repayment at maturity.
The Board of Directors of Elektroimportøren AS and CEO Andreas Niss have agreed that Mr. Niss will step down from his position as Chief Executive Officer. The decision follows a joint assessment that the company is now positioned for its next growth phase and that a leadership transition is timely.
The Board of Elektroimportøren AS proposes a dividend of NOK 0.40 per share for 2025. The dividend amounts to NOK 20.3 million and represents a pay-out ratio of 63.5 per cent of net profit, which is according to the company's dividend policy of 60 to 80 per cent of net profit.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1. General information
Elektroimportøren AS and its subsidiaries ("the group") sell electrical installation products through wholly owned stores and on internet. The Group has 31 physical stores in Norway under the brand name Elektroimportøren and one physical store in Sweden under the brand name Elbutik.
Elektroimportøren AS is a Norwegian limited liability company, and the Group's head office is at Nedre Kalbakkvei 88b, 1081 Oslo.
The Group's consolidated financial statement for the year ended 31 December 2025 were authorised for issue by the Board of directors on 7 April 2026.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
2.1 Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements of Elektroimportøren AS have been prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards and IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRS IC) interpretations, as adopted by the European Union as well as the additional disclosure requirements of the Norwegian Accounting Act.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of the revaluation of financial assets and financial liabilities (derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the group's accounting policies.
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Norwegian kroner (NOK), which is also the functional currency of the parent company, and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand (NOK 000), except when otherwise stated.
The Group has prepared the financial statements on the basis that it will continue to operate as a going concern.
2.2 Consolidation and business combinations
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the group has control. The group controls an entity when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. The group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations.
When necessary, amounts reported by subsidiaries have been adjusted to conform with the group's accounting policies.
The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair values of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree, and the equity interests issued by the group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the recognized amounts of acquiree's identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated.
2.3 Segment reporting
The Elektroimportøren group is defined and identified as one operating segment.
The group management is identified as the chief operating decision-maker responsible for allocating resources and monitoring the operating segment. Operating segments are reported consistent with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker.
2.4 Foreign currency translation and transactions
Functional and presentation currency
Each entity in the group determines its functional currency based on the economic environment in which it operates, and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using that functional currency. When preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity's functional currency are recognized in the functional currency, using the transaction date's currency rate.
Presentation currency is NOK.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement. Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings and cash and cash
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
equivalents are presented in the income statement within finance income or costs.
Group companies
The results of foreign entities are translated each month at the monthly average rate, and their balance sheets are translated at the rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Goodwill and the acquisition of intangible assets are held in the currency of the operation to which they relate. Exchange differences arising on the translation of net assets, goodwill and results of foreign entities are recognised in the translation reserve. All other exchange differences are included in profit or loss in the year in which they arise.
2.5 Property, plant, and equipment
Property, plant, and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:
- Office Machines, 3 to 5 years
- Fixtures, machinery and equipment, 3 to 10 years
- Vehicles, 5 years
The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. An asset's carrying amount is written down to its recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount (note 2.7). Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognized within 'Other income or other operating expenses respectively in the income statement.
2.6 Intangible assets
Goodwill
Goodwill arises in business combinations as discussed in note 2.2. Goodwill is not amortised but it is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose. The units or groups of units are identified at the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. As of December 31 2025, the goodwill is related to existing operation in Norway, and the acquisition of Elbutik in Sweden.
Trademarks
Separately acquired trademarks are shown at historical cost. Trademarks acquired in a business combination are recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Trademarks are considered to have a useful life of 15-20 years. Amortisation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over the estimated useful life. The assets' useful life are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period. And asset's carrying amount is written down to recoverable amount if the asset's carrying amount is greater than it's estimated recoverable amount.
Software
Software mainly consists of external development cost and acquired computer software licences. It includes costs incurred to acquire the assets, as well as internal infrastructure and design costs incurred in the development of software, in order to bring the assets into use.
Internally generated software is recognised as an intangible asset, only if it can be separately identified, it is probable that the asset will generate future economic benefits which exceed one year, and the development cost can be measured reliably. Where these conditions are not met, development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the year in which it is incurred.
Software is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and, where appropriate, provision for impairment in value or
estimated loss on disposal. Amortisation is provided to write off the cost of the assets on a straight-line basis over three to ten years and is recognised in the income statement in the line-item depreciation and amortisation expenses.
2.7 Impairment of non-financial assets
Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life or intangible assets not ready to use are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are largely independent cash inflows (cash-generating units). Prior impairments of non-financial assets (other than goodwill) are reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
For the purpose of impairment, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to the cash generating unit (CGU) which is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Goodwill is monitored at the operating segment level.

Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
2.8 Financial assets
2.8.1 Classification
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: at fair value or amortised cost.
A. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments.
B. Financial assets at amortised cost are Trade receivables, held at amortized cost. All trade receivables are classified as current assets.
2.8.2 Recognition, measurement and derecognition
Financial assets are initially recognised at their fair value, and subsequently measured at amortised cost. Trade receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 to 60 days and therefore classified as current. At initial recognition, the group measures other financial assets at fair value.
The majority of trade and other receivables are non-interest bearing. The carrying amount of trade and other receivables approximates fair value.
Trade receivables are evaluated for possible impairment each reporting period using the simplified credit loss model. Trade receivables are derecognised when the right to receive cash flows has expired.
2.8.3 Impairment of financial assets
Most of the Group's sales are "over the counter" in the stores, where payment is received from the customer at the time of the sale, but still a significant portion of the B2B sales a trade receivable is recognised. Historically Elektroimportøren has not experienced significant losses on trade receivables. The group applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.
2.9 Derivative financial instruments
The Group enters into derivative contracts to provide economic hedges for parts of the Group's exposure to currency rate risk. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into, and they are subsequently remeasured to their fair value with changes through profit and loss at the end of each reporting period. The Group does not apply hedge accounting and derivatives is recognised as financial expenses or financial income.
2.10 Inventories, purchased goods and changes in inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The cost of purchased goods sold comprises the direct costs (purchase price), import duties and freight. A significant part of the inventory purchases are denominated in USD. Cost of purchased goods sold is determined using FIFO (first in first out). Changes in inventory also includes a provision for obsolescence and lost goods.
2.11 Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows and financial position, cash and cash equivalents include bank deposits, cash on hand such as petty cash balances held in branches together with any amounts held in overnight safes and overnight deposits (cash in transit). Any amount of cash which has been received from customers, but which has not yet been deposited with the bank are included as cash. This includes credit cards where the expected payment is within a reasonable timeframe.
2.12 Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
2.13 Trade payables
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Trade payables are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2.14 Liabilities to financial institutions
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees and commission costs paid on the establishment and maintenance of short-term bank borrowing facilities are recognised as bank transaction costs in the accounting period when the costs are paid.
2.15 Financial liabilities (earn-out)
Contingent consideration arrangements are initially measured at fair value and remeasured at each balance sheet date to fair value. The fair value of contingent consideration arrangements has been estimated by applying the income approach. A reduction in growth assumptions used in the fair value methodology would result in a reduction in the amount of contingent consideration payable.

Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
2.16 Current and deferred income tax
Current tax
Current tax is provided at amounts expected to be paid or recovered using the prevailing tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and adjusted for any tax payable in respect of previous years. It establishes provisions where appropriate based on amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities (22% in Norway, 20.6% in Sweden).
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:
- When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss
- In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint arrangements, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, the carry forward of unused tax credits and any unused tax losses. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:
- When the deferred tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss
- In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint arrangements, deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised.
2.17 Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration expected to be received or receivable, and represents amounts receivable for goods supplied, stated net of discounts, returns and value added taxes. The group recognises revenue when control of a good or service transfers to a customer. The Group offers its customers the option to return purchased goods within 60 days. The group bases its estimate of return on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement. At year end the numbers of returns are insignificant.
Sales of goods
The group operates a chain of retail outlets for selling electrical installation products. Sales of goods are recognised when a group entity transfers control to the customer, usually when goods are picked up by the customer in store or distributed from central warehouse to the customer. Retail sales are both in cash or by debit/ credit card, or as an accounts receivable (B2B sales).
Some of the B2B customers receive bonuses based on total sales volume for the year. The bonuses constitute variable consideration and the Group adjusts the transaction price of sales throughout the year based on expected level of bonuses during the year.
Online revenue
Revenue from the sale of goods over the online platform is recognised at the point that control of the inventory have passed to the customer, which is the point of delivery to the carrier. Revenue is adjusted for the value of expected returns. The return policy for products sold over the internet is the same as for products sold in the stores. Transactions are settled by credit or payment card or as accounts receivables (B2B sales).
Service sales
The group offers a full-service solution (Spoton) including products and installation at fixed price. Revenue is recognised and transactions are settled through credit card when installation is complete. The Group is considered the principal in the transaction with the customer and is responsible for the obligation to the customer is fulfilled.
2.18 Employee benefits
The company has various pension schemes. The pension schemes are financed through payments to insurance companies. The company has only defined contribution plans.
The pension schemes are in line with the mandatory occupational pension act.
The group pays contributions to privately administered pension insurance plans on a mandatory, contractual basis. The group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are recognised as employee benefit expense when they are due. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.
2.19 Share based payments
The Group has share-based programmes for the certain board members. The programmes are measured at fair value at the date of the grant. The share option programme for the board members is settled in stocks. The fair value of the issued options is expensed over the vesting period which in this case is over the agreed-upon future service time. The value of the issued options of the transactions that are settled with equity instruments (settled with the company's own shares) is recognised as salary and personnel cost in profit and loss and in other paid-in capital. Social security tax on options is recorded as a liability and is recognised over the estimated vesting period.
2.20 Leases
The Group's leasing activities predominantly relate to retail store properties and distribution properties. The Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of the contract. The Group recognises a
right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, except for short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low value assets (which comprise IT equipment and small items of office furniture). For these leases, the Group recognises the lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease with no corresponding right-of-use asset.
Property contracts generally have a lease term between 5 to 10 years, while equipment and vehicles generally have lease terms between 3 and 10 years. The contracts may include extension options. The determination of the lease term may require significant judgement, as discussed in note 4.2. The lease agreements do not impose any covenants other than the security interests in the leased assets that are held by the lessor. Leased assets may not be used as security for borrowing purposes.
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the group, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.
The group is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index or rate, which are not included in the lease liability until they take effect. Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease payments made at or before the commencement day, less any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs and any dilapidation costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the shorter period of the lease term and the useful life of the underlying asset. Right-of-use assets are assessed on an ongoing basis to determine whether circumstances exist that could lead to the conclusion that the net book value is not supportable. Variable rents that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the lease liability and the right-of-use asset. The related payments are recognised as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs.
NOTE 3 – FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
3.1 Financial risk factors
The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk and cash flow interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group's overall risk management focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance. The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge certain risk exposures. The Group does not apply hedge accounting in accordance with IFRS 9.
Derivatives are only used for economic hedging purposes and not as speculative investments.
The Group treasury's risk management policy is to hedge up to a 50% of forecast US dollar cash flows for inventory purchases up to 12 months.
Foreign exchange risk
Exposures to currency exchange rates arise from the Group's international purchases, which are primarily denominated in USD. The Group uses foreign currency derivative contracts to hedge foreign exchange risk which are recorded at fair value. At 31. December 2025, the Group had future contracts for 27% of the anticipated USD cash flow for a period of 12 months. The Group also enters into foreign currency derivative
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
contracts in SEK and EUR, although these are of a limited volume and are not considered material in the context of the Group's total currency risk exposure.
The Group has a net investment in Swedish operations by the acquisition of Elbutik in 2022. The Group has no hedging activity related to the investment or the Swedish operation.
The following table illustrates the sensitivity on the Group's financial instruments on a 10% change in USD against Norwegian kroner.
| Effect on Profit | ||
|---|---|---|
| Sensitivity on change in derivatives in USD vs NOK +/-10% | before Tax | Effect on OCI |
| 2025 | 5,483 | 0 |
| 2024 | 5,643 | 0 |
Interest risk
The Group's interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings and bank deposits. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk which is partially offset by cash held at variable rates. The Group is also subject to interest rate risk related to short term bank overdraft drawn during the financial year. Borrowings at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk.
| Effect on Profit | ||
|---|---|---|
| Interest sensitivity on liabilities to financial institutions and net cash +/-1% | before Tax | Effect on OCI |
| 2025 | 296 | 0 |
| 2024 | 805 | 0 |
Credit risk
Most of the Group's turnover comes from cash sales or debit/credit card-based sales where settlement in cash takes place within a few days of the sales transaction. A significant portion of the sale to B2B customers are on credit. As such, the Group has some exposure to credit risk relating to accounts receivable balances. Historical losses on trade receivables have been relatively low. The Group has a credit policy outlining conditions for giving credit to a customer. Credit is only given for professional customers with a good credit rating. For certain amounts Group finance must authorise the credit limit. The Group has implemented robust routines for sending reminders and follow up outstanding amounts.
Credit risk also arises from derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions. However, counterparts are limited to financial institutions with high creditworthiness. Historically, default and losses related to credit risk have been low.
Total receivables overdue was NOK 3 million with NOK 2 million between 0 and 120 days and NOK 1 million older than 120 days.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group has capital-intensive inventory in central warehouse and stores and has fluctuations related to working capital due to seasonality and the timing of the deliveries and payments. Cash flow forecasting is performed in the operating entities of the Group and aggregated by Group finance.
Group finance monitors rolling forecasts of the Group's liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while always maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed loan facilities so that the Group does not breach borrowing limits or covenants (where applicable) of its borrowing facilities. Such forecasting takes into consideration the Group's debt financing plans, covenant compliance and compliance.
The table below analyses the Group's non-derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.
| At 31 December 2025 | Less than 1 year | Between 1 and 2 years | Between 2 and 3 years | Between 3 and 4 years | Over 4 years |

Loans consist of one long term loan from DNB (note 18). The remaining balance on the long-term facility of NOK 180 million is due in March 2027 with annual instalments of NOK 40 million.
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
After year-end, the Group refinanced its existing bank facilities and now has access to a NOK 180 million term loan and a NOK 120 million overdraft facility. Further details are provided in note 25 Subsequent events.
3.2 Capital management
The Group's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, providing returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, reduce excess loan repayments, exploit available credit facilities, or sell financial assets. In order to achieve the Group's overall objective, the Group's capital management, among other things, aims to ensure that it meets financial covenants attached to the interest-bearing loans and borrowings that define capital structure requirements. There have been no breaches of the financial covenants of any interest-bearing loans and borrowing in the current period.

|---|---|---|
| Financial assets, change in fair value is recognised over P&L as part of financial income og losses | ||
| Derivatives at fair value: | ||

| - Earn-out consideration Elbutik | 0 | - |
| Total liabilities | -245 | - |
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorised within the fair value hierarchy, described as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
- Level 1 – Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
- Level 2 – Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
- Level 3 – Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable
Financial instruments are valued based observable values according to level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Earn-out agreement is calculated according to level 3.
As part of the purchase agreement with the previous owner of Elbutik, a contingent consideration has been agreed. There will be additional cash payments to the previous owners of Elbutik of maximum SEK 52.8 million. Basis for calculation is EBITDA above SEK 18 million adjusted for costs relating to establishment of physical stores and warehouses. The earn-out calculation should be multiplied by ten to calculate the total earn out consideration.
As the financial performance for 2025 did not meet the specified performance targets, the earn-out obligation expired on 31 December 2025.
NOTE 4 – CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND SIGNIFICANT JUDGEMENTS
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated, and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
4.1 Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
Group management makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below.
The Group conducts an annual impairment test on its trademark and goodwill in accordance with IAS 36. The recoverable amounts of the defined cash-generating unit, Elektroimportøren, have been determined based on value-in-use calculations. This calculation requires use of estimates. The impairment tests are especially sensitive for negative changes in long-term growth, gross margin and discount rate.
See note 12 – Intangible assets for more information.
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
4.2 Critical judgements in determining the lease term
In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise a renewal option or a break clause. Renewal options and break clauses are only included in the lease term if it is reasonably certain that it will be exercised. The lease term is reassessed if an option is exercised (or not exercised) or the group becomes obliged to exercise (or not exercise) it. The assessment of reasonable certainty is only revised if a significant event or a significant change in circumstances occurs, which affects this assessment, and that is within the control of the Group.
Most of the Group's lease contracts have been entered into over the past 10 years. Some of these contracts include renewal periods. However, renewal periods for store leases are not included in the lease term unless it is reasonably certain that they will be exercised. As a general practice, the Group aims to maintain an optimal store portfolio, and renewal options are only included when the decision to renew has been made.
NOTE 5 – SEGMENT AND REVENUE REPORTING
The Group management is the chief operating decision-maker, and the reporting is on a consolidated basis, forming the basis for the group management's assessment of operational and strategic performance. The Group is therefore defined and identified as one segment.
The Group's revenue is primarily related to sales of electrical materials, lighting, and cables, in addition to heating and ventilation products.
The sale is generated through the following channels:

Goodwill impairment test
The Group tests whether goodwill has suffered any impairment on an annual basis. The recoverable amount is determined based on value-in-use calculations which require significant assumptions. These calculations use cash flow projections based on financial budgets and assumptions approved by senior management covering a five-year period.
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
The Group has one CGU, and the goodwill is tested for impairment at this level, which represents the lowest level in the entity at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.
Goodwill impairment sensitivity analysis
The key assumptions related to future cash flow are sales growth, gross margin percentage and discount rate. A sensitivity analysis has been performed on each of the base case assumptions used for assessing the goodwill with other variables held constant. Consideration of sensitivities to key assumptions can evolve from one financial year to the next. Based on a sensitivity analysis where the sales growth, margin percentage and discount rate have been changed with 3%, the directors have concluded that there are no reasonably possible changes in key assumptions which would cause the carrying amount of goodwill to exceed its value-in-use.
The recoverable amount exceeds the carrying value for all three scenarios providing a headroom of:
- 392 MNOK if WACC increases with 3%
- 52 MNOK if gross margin percentage is reduced with 3%
- 397 MNOK if revenue is reduced with 5%
The Group's establishment in Sweden has not been immune to market fluctuations such as the overall decline in electric installation material industry after the Groups acquisition of Elbutik in March 2022. Despite these challenges, the management are optimistic about the long-term prospect of the investment and the impairment assumptions are based on further investments in Sweden. Despite this, the management believe it is essential to acknowledge the existing risk that may pose challenges to the Groups goodwill related to the Swedish establishment.
Key assumptions 31 December 2025:
- Budget figures for 2026, and business plan for 2027-2030
- Compound annual growth in sales in budget period of 10.4% (lower than historical growth)
- Marginal increase in gross margin percentages driven by category and country mix
- Discount rate 10.4% (pre-tax rate)
- Long term growth rate of 1.5%
Key assumptions 31 December 2024:
- Budget figures for 2025, and business plan for 2026-2029
-
Compound annual growth in sales in budget period of 10.6% (lower than historical growth)
-
Marginal reduction in gross margin percentages driven by category and country mix
- Discount rate 10.0% (pre-tax rate)
- Long term growth rate of 1.7%
Annual growth: The annual growth rate is based on budget and long-term plans including growth categories such as smart home and energy efficient solutions.
Discount rate and long-term growth rate: The discount rate calculation is based on specific circumstances of the Group and its operations and is derived from its weighted average cost of capital (WACC). Industry-specific risk is incorporated by applying beta factors based on publicly available data. The long-term growth rate is derived from the weighted long-term growth in Norway and Sweden based on publicly available information.

NOTE 24 – DEFERRED AND CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION
Earn-out consideration
The Group has an earn-out consideration in relation to the acquisition of the Elbutik-group in 2022. The Group held a balance of NOK 44 MNOK at year end 2023 which was released in 2024. The release was recognised in net financial income/expenses.
The earn-out was contingent on the performance of the Elbutik ecommerce business against earnings growth targets over a four-year period from 2022 to 2025. Expected cash outflows were estimated based on the terms of the purchase agreement and the management's assessment of the Elbutik ecommerce business and how the current economic environment was expected to impact it. As the financial performance for 2025 did not meet the specified performance targets, the earn-out obligation expired on 31 December 2025.
NOTE 25 – RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENT
In the current year, the Group has assessed amendments to IFRS Standards and Interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) that are effective for the financial year beginning 1 January 2025. Their adoption has not had any material impact on the disclosures or on the amounts reported in these financial statements. The Group has considered the following standards whose impact is not deemed to be material:
- Amendments to IAS 21 - Lack of Exchangeability
For the period covered by this report, no standards and interpretations are early adopted.
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
Standards issued but not yet effective
- IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
IFRS 18 introduces new requirements for presentation within the statement of profit or loss, including specified totals and subtotals. Furthermore, entities are required to classify all income and expenses within the statement of profit or loss into one of five categories: operating investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations, whereof the first three are new.
The standard requires disclosure of newly defined management-defined performance measures, subtotals of income and expenses, and it also includes new requirements for aggregation and disaggregation of financial information based on the identified 'roles' of the primary financial statements (PFS) and the notes.
The Group is currently working to identify all impacts the amendments will have on the primary financial statements and notes to the financial statements. The initial expected material impacts on Group's financial statements are, as follows:
- Foreign exchange difference will be classified in the category where the related income and expense form the item giving rising to the foreign exchange difference.
- New disclosure will be added: (a) management-defined performance measures and (b) a reconciliation for each line item in the statement of profit or loss between the restated amounts presented applying IFRS 18 and the amounts previously presented applying IAS 1.
- Interest received and interest paid will be classified in the investing activities and financing activities, respectively, on the statement of cash flows.
NOTE 26 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company has agreed with DNB Bank ASA to refinance its existing bank facilities into (i) a new NOK 180 million term loan (3+1+1 year) and (ii) a new NOK 120 million overdraft facility.
- overdraft facility.
- There will be no amortization, but bullet repayment at maturity.
The Board of Directors of Elektroimportøren AS and CEO Andreas Niss have agreed that Mr. Niss will step down from his position as Chief Executive Officer. The decision follows a joint assessment that the company is now positioned for its next growth phase and that a leadership transition is timely.
The board of Elektroimportøren AS proposes a dividend of NOK 0.40 per share for 2025. The dividend amounts to NOK 20.3 million and represents a pay-out ratio of 63.5 per cent of net profit, which is according to the company's dividend policy of 60 to 80 per cent of net profit.

Elektroimportøren AS Annual Report 2025
NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR 2025
NOTE 1 – ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
The annual report is prepared according to the Norwegian Accounting Act 1998 and generally accepted accounting principles.
Subsidiaries and investment in associate
Subsidiaries and investments in associate are valued by the cost method in the company accounts. The investment is valued as cost of acquiring shares in the subsidiary, providing that write down is not required. Write down to fair value will be carried out if the reduction in value is caused by circumstances which may not be regarded as incidental and deemed necessary by generally accepted accounting principles. Write downs are reversed when the cause of the initial write down are no longer present.
Dividends and other distributions are recognized in the same year as appropriated in the subsidiary accounts. If dividends exceed withheld profits after acquisition, the exceeding amount represents reimbursement of invested capital, and the distribution will be subtracted from the value of the acquisition in the balance sheet.
Balance sheet classification
Net current assets comprise creditors due within one year, and entries related to goods circulation. Other entries are classified as fixed assets and/or long-term creditors.
Current assets are valued at the lower of acquisition cost and fair value. Short term creditors are recognized at nominal value.
Fixed assets are valued by the cost of acquisition, in the case of non-incidental reduction in value the asset will be written down to the fair value amount. Long term creditors are recognized at nominal value.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful economic life. Direct maintenance costs are expensed as incurred, whereas improvements and upgrading are assigned to the acquisition cost and depreciated along with the asset. If carrying value of a non-current asset exceeds the estimated recoverable amount, the asset is written down to the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the greater of the net selling price and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value.
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables and other current receivables are recorded in the balance sheet at nominal value less provisions for doubtful debts. Provisions for doubtful debts are calculated based on individual assessments. In addition, for the remainder of accounts receivables outstanding balances, a general provision is carried out based on expected loss.
Income tax
Tax expenses in the profit and loss account comprise both tax payable for the accounting period and changes in deferred tax. Deferred tax is calculated at 22 percent based on existing temporary differences between accounting profit and taxable profit together with tax deductible deficits at the year end. Temporary differences both positive and negative, are balance out within the same period. Deferred tax assets are recorded in the balance sheet to the extent it is more likely than not that the tax assets will be utilized.
To what extent group contribution is not registered in the profit and loss, the tax effect of group contribution is posted directly against the investment in the balance.
Share based payments
The Group has share-based programmes for the certain board members. The programmes are measured at fair value at the date of the grant. The share option programme for the board members is settled in stocks. The fair value of the issued options is expensed over the vesting period which in this case is over the agreed-upon future service time.
The value of the issued options of the transactions that are settled with equity instruments (settled with the company's own shares) is recognised as salary and personnel cost in profit and loss and in other paid-in capital. Social security tax on options is recorded as a liability and is recognised over the estimated vesting period.
Foreign currency translation
Transactions in foreign currency are converted at the exchange rate on the transaction date. Monetary items in foreign currency are converted into Norwegian kroner using the balance sheet date rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost in foreign currency are converted into Norwegian kroner using the exchange rate on the transaction date. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in foreign currency are converted at the exchange rate determined at the measurement date. Exchange rate changes are recognized in the income statement continuously during the accounting period under other financial items.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Elektroimportøren AS (the Company), which comprise:
- The financial statements of the Company, which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2025, the income statement and statement of cash flows for the year then ended and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and
- The financial statements of the Group, which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2025, the income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended and notes to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information.
In our opinion:
- the financial statements comply with applicable statutory requirements,
- the financial statements of the Company give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2025, and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and accounting standards and practices generally accepted in Norway, and
- the consolidated financial statements of the Group give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2025, and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company and the Group in accordance with the requirements of the relevant laws and regulations in Norway and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (the IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Other information
The Board of Directors and the Managing Director (management) are responsible for the information in the Board of Directors' report and the other information presented with the financial statements. The other information comprises the other information included in the company's annual report other than the financial statements and the related audit opinion. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the information in the Board of Directors' report and the other information presented with the financial statements.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the information in the Board of Directors' report and for the other information presented with the financial statements. The purpose is to consider if there is material inconsistency between the information in the Board of Directors' report and the other information presented with the financial statements and the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise the information in the Board of Directors' report and for the other information presented with the financial statements otherwise appears to be materially
misstated. We are required to report if there is a material misstatement in the Board of Directors' report and the other information presented with the financial statements. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Based on our knowledge obtained in the audit, it is our opinion that the Board of Directors' report
- is consistent with the financial statements and
- contains the information required by applicable statutory requirements.
Responsibilities of management for the financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements of the Company that give a true and fair view in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and accounting standards and practices generally accepted in Norway, and for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements of the Group that give a true and fair view in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU. Management is responsible for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's and the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or the Group, or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's and the Group's internal control.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
- Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's and the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit

evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company and the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
- Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with the Board of Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
