Deirdre P. Connelly
Board Chair

Dear Shareholder,

At Genmab, we strive to be innovative and forward-thinking in everything we do, not just in our approach to discovering and developing differentiated antibody therapeutics. As a result, in 2022 the unstoppable team at Genmab built on our already solid foundation with progress throughout our business.

Commitment to Sustainability and the Environment

Over the past year, we continued our business-driven corporate responsibility strategy with an emphasis on measuring our carbon footprint, setting climate ambitions and targets, and improving our climate-related disclosures. We remained committed to our three previously selected United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs), and added an additional UNSDG, Goal 13: Climate Action.

We are also dedicated to transparency and the continued improvement of our climate disclosures. We have included in our Annual Report our disclosures in accordance with the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations. In addition, we have an intention to commit to a climate target to reduce our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in line with the Paris Agreement. Because of our focus on sustainability, Genmab scores well on external benchmarking for environmental, social and governance (ESG) and we continually seek ways to improve and remain compliant with existing and new requirements. In 2023, we

will continue our commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainability and will look for opportunities to further integrate this commitment into our business. I encourage you to read our 2022 Corporate Responsibility Report for more information.

Experienced Leadership

In 2022, we further strengthened our Senior Leadership team with the appointments of Birgitte Stephensen to Chief Legal Officer and Chris Cozic to Chief People Officer. Both leaders have experience in their fields, within and outside of Genmab. Birgitte Stephensen joined Genmab in 2002 and previously served as Genmab's Senior Vice President, Intellectual Property Rights and Legal. Chris Cozic joined Genmab in 2017 and most recently served as Senior Vice President, Global Human Resources.

We also saw a change to our Board of Directors with the election of Elizabeth O'Farrell at Genmab's 2022 Annual General Meeting. During her 24-year career at Eli Lilly, Ms. O'Farrell served as CFO of some of the company's largest businesses, including as Head of Global Finance Operations. She has solid financial experience including strategic, operational and financial decision-making and reporting across the value chain as well as expertise in driving global change initiatives.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to thank Genmab's dedicated team members, CEO Jan van de Winkel and the entire global leadership team for their inspiration and extraordinary leadership as well as our shareholders for their continued support.

Sincerely,

Chief Executive Officer

We believe that with our unstoppable team we can improve the lives of patients through innovative and differentiated antibody therapeutics.

Dear Shareholder,

A Successful Strategy

When I became CEO of Genmab in 2010 there was an imperative to outline a new strategy—one that would reposition the company to become financially sustainable and allow us to invest in our world-class antibody products and technologies. That three-pronged strategy—to turn science into medicine, build a profitable and successful biotech and focus on our core competence—led quickly to success. Just two years after we unveiled this strategy, we entered into two agreements with Janssen Biotech, Inc. (Janssen) that subsequently resulted in multiple approved medicines: DARZALEX® (daratumumab) and DARZALEX FASPRO® (daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj) and the first approved DuoBody®-based antibody therapies RYBREVANT® (amivantamab) and TECVAYLI® (teclistamab). There is potential for an additional DuoBody-based medicine from this

collaboration, as Janssen submitted a Biologics License Application (BLA) in December to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA) for talquetamab.

The approved medicines form part of the recurring revenue streams that we use to invest back into our company's pipeline, technology and people. The results of this investment were on display in 2022. We celebrated the first full year of Genmab's first approved medicine, Tivdak® (tisotumab vedotin-tftv), co-developed with Seagen Inc. (Seagen), being available for certain cervical cancer patients in the U.S. We submitted applications for our own DuoBody-based investigational medicine, epcoritamab, for approval in the U.S. and Japan and our partner AbbVie Inc. (AbbVie) followed suit in Europe. We expanded and advanced our clinical and pre-clinical portfolios, including an expansion of our successful collaboration with BioNTech SE (BioNTech), and we further scaled our organization to be aligned

with our portfolio growth and potential future product launches.

A Vision Rooted in Science, Inspired by Patients

Soon after we launched our successful strategy, we articulated an ambitious vision for the company—that by 2025, our own product has transformed cancer treatment, and we have a pipeline of KYSO antibodies. To support this vision, we outlined how we would build our capabilities and teams, and we aligned on a series of goals and milestones that we committed to reaching by 2025. These ambitious goals were a roadmap to becoming the company that we knew we could be. I am proud that we have met most of those goals and many more are within reach, giving us an extremely solid foundation on which to continue to build Genmab. With these achievements, we felt that it was time to look beyond our 2025 Vision to continue impacting the lives of patients and the healthcare community into the future. Together with members of Genmab’s leadership team and colleagues throughout the organization, we discussed what would make us feel proud in 2030. We have captured our aspirations for the future with a new vision, that by 2030, our KYSO antibody medicines are fundamentally transforming the lives of people with cancer and other serious diseases.

Our 2030 Vision is not a reimagining of what Genmab is, but a bold expansion of what Genmab can be and how our unstoppable team aspires to use our innovation in antibody therapeutics to fundamentally transform the lives of patients. We know that our antibody know-how, assets and technologies can be applied to diseases outside cancer—the approvals of Novartis AG (Novartis)’s Kesimpta® (ofatumumab) in relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS) and Horizon Therapeutics, plc (Horizon)’s TEPEZZA® (teprotumumab-trbw) in thyroid eye disease (TED) are proof of this. While we will continue to create and develop new treatment concepts in oncology, we will apply a rigorous approach in identifying areas outside of oncology where our science and expertise may potentially make the biggest difference for patients, with the ultimate goal of improving the lives of as many people as possible.

An Unstoppable Team, a KYSO Future

As a co-founder of Genmab, I am extremely motivated by the progress we have made, both since I became CEO and over the past year. As a scientist and immunologist, I am truly excited by the potential of our antibodies and by the possibilities for Genmab in 2023, 2030 and beyond.

I can say with confidence that this is not my story alone or the story of our global leadership team—it is the story of our talented and unstoppable Genmab team, of our collaboration partners who believe in the power of antibody therapies, of our supportive Board of Directors, the patients who participate in our clinical trials and their families, the investigators who help us trailblaze innovations, and our shareholders who believe in our vision. We are at the beginning of a fantastic KYSO future that we are creating together, and I thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely yours,

2023 Outlook

(DKK million) 2023 Guidance 2022 Actual Result
Revenue 14,600–16,100 14,595
Operating expenses (9,800)–(10,600) (8,238)
Operating profit 3,900–6,200* 6,357

*Operating profit does not sum due to rounding

Revenue

Genmab expects its 2023 revenue to be in the range of DKK 14,600–16,100 million, compared to DKK 14,595 million in 2022. Our revenue in 2022 was driven primarily by DARZALEX royalties due to the continued strong growth of DARZALEX net sales, favorable exchange rate movements between the USD and DKK and the positive impact of applying the DARZALEX contractual annual Currency Hedge Rate.

Genmab's projected revenue growth for 2023 is driven by recurring revenues related to DARZALEX, TEPEZZA and Kesimpta royalties from net sales growth, partly offset by negative exchange rate movements between the USD and DKK due to a lower assumed USD/DKK exchange rate.

Genmab's projected revenue for 2023 primarily consists of DARZALEX royalties of DKK 10,400–11,100 million. Such royalties are based on estimated DARZALEX 2023 net sales of USD 9.4–10.0 billion compared to actual net sales in 2022 of approximately USD 8.0 billion. DARZALEX royalties are partly offset by Genmab's share of Janssen's royalty payments to Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. (Halozyme) in connection with SC net sales. The remainder of Genmab's revenue consists of increasing royalties from TEPEZZA, Kesimpta, RYBREVANT and TECVAYLI, reimbursement revenue, milestones including those for epcoritamab and collaboration revenue with Seagen for Tivdak.

Operating Expenses

Genmab anticipates its 2023 operating expenses to be in the range of DKK 9,800–10,600 million, compared to DKK 8,238 million in 2022. The growth in operating expenses is to support Genmab's continued portfolio advancement and investing for future product launches, including epcoritamab.

Operating Profit

Genmab expects our operating profit to be in the range of DKK 3,900–6,200 million in 2023, compared to DKK 6,357 million in 2022.

Outlook: Risks and Assumptions

In addition to factors already mentioned, the estimates above are subject to change for numerous reasons including but not limited to: the achievement of certain milestones associated with Genmab's collaboration agreements; the timing and variation of development activities (including activities carried out by Genmab's collaboration partners) and related income and costs; DARZALEX, DARZALEX FASPRO, Kesimpta, TEPEZZA, RYBREVANT and TECVAYLI net sales and royalties paid to Genmab; changing rates of inflation; and currency exchange rates (the 2023 guidance assumes a USD/DKK exchange rate of 6.8). The financial guidance assumes that no significant new agreements are entered into during 2023 that could materially affect the results. Additionally, depending on trends related to the coronavirus and future variants, the COVID-19 pandemic could potentially have a material adverse impact on Genmab's business and financial performance, including clinical trials, projected regulatory approval timelines, supply chain and revenues, and cause Genmab's actual results to differ materially from 2023 Guidance and Key 2023 Priorities in this annual report.

While global health authorities and global vaccination efforts alleviated some of the adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, should the global outbreak of COVID-19 persist, it may have long-term impacts on the development, regulatory approval and commercialization of Genmab's investigational medicines and on net sales of approved medicines created by Genmab or that leverage Genmab's DuoBody technology, which are developed and marketed by Genmab or Genmab's collaboration partners. The factors discussed above, as well as other factors that are currently unforeseeable, may result in further and other unforeseen material adverse impacts on Genmab's business and financial performance, including on the sales of Tivdak and on the net sales of DARZALEX, Kesimpta, TEPEZZA, RYBREVANT and TECVAYLI by Genmab's collaboration partners and on Genmab's royalties, collaboration revenue and milestone revenue therefrom.

Research and Development Capabilities

Inspired by Nature

At Genmab, we are inspired by nature and understand how antibodies work. We are deeply knowledgeable about antibody biology and our scientists harness this expertise to create and develop differentiated investigational antibody medicines. We utilize a sophisticated and highly automated process to efficiently generate, select, produce and evaluate human antibody-based products. Our teams have established a fully integrated R&D enterprise and streamlined process to coordinate the activities of antibody product discovery, pre-clinical testing, manufacturing, clinical trial design and execution, and regulatory submissions across Genmab's international operations. Through our expertise in antibody drug development, we pioneer technologies that allow us to create differentiated and potentially first-in-class or best-in-class investigational medicines with the potential to improve patients' lives. Our antibody expertise has enabled us to create our cutting-edge technology platforms: DuoBody, HexaBody, DuoHexaBody® and HexElect®.

To connect patients with the right medicine at the right dose, we are also transforming Genmab; building on our world-class research in antibodies to expand our capabilities beyond the lab. We have expanded our scientific focus to use data science and artificial intelligence to aid in the discovery of new targets and biomarkers and bolster our in-depth translational medicine laboratory capabilities.

Sustainable and State-of-the-Art Facilities

The Netherlands

Genmab's discovery and pre-clinical research is conducted at our R&D Center in Utrecht, the Netherlands, one of the first Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) Excellent laboratory buildings in the Netherlands. The R&D Center is located in close proximity to other life sciences companies and a world-class research university. It houses state-of-the-art laboratories including an advanced robotics lab, a modern auditorium, science café, and innovative brainstorming and meeting rooms. The space provides a bright, open and collaborative atmosphere to enable the Genmab team to continue to innovate and find new ways to help patients.

To accommodate Genmab's growth, we will occupy most of the new "Accelerator" multi-tenant building, connected directly to the Genmab R&D Center. It is designed to achieve the same BREEAM Excellent high sustainability standard. Expansion into this building, which will contain both offices and laboratories, is expected in 2023.

United States

Genmab opened its new U.S. facility in 2020. This space, modeled on the open and collaborative spirit of the R&D Center in Utrecht, includes both offices and laboratories. The U.S. translational research laboratories allow Genmab to expand our translational pre-clinical and clinical drug development research expertise and are part of the strategic growth of the Company. As with the construction and design of our Utrecht facilities, our U.S. office and laboratories were designed and built with sustainability in mind and meet the requirements for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold certification for sustainable design features. Additionally, 75% of the construction waste created when building out the facility was recycled, rather than being sent to a landfill.

As Genmab continues to grow our geographical footprint, we will endeavor to do so with minimal impact to the environment and with sustainability as a key area of focus.

Enhancing Commercialization Capabilities to Bring Our Innovations to Patients

Our 2030 Vision is for Genmab's KYSO antibody medicines to fundamentally transform the treatment of cancer and other serious diseases. We are becoming an integrated end-to-end biotech innovation powerhouse that discovers, develops, and delivers next-generation antibody-based medicines to patients. Through the addition of key talent and the purposeful and strategic growth of our capabilities, we have never been in a better position to achieve our Vision.

Key to our ability to bring our medicines to patients is commercialization. Over the past few years, we have made tremendous progress in building and establishing this important capability, first in the U.S. and Japan, through a disciplined and integrated approach.

  • In the third quarter of 2021, together with our partner Seagen, we launched our first marketed medicine, Tivdak, in the U.S. Since its launch, Tivdak is on the way to becoming the clear second-line choice for women with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer with more than 900 women estimated to have received treatment as of December 2022.
  • We continue to expand our capabilities as we prepare for the potential launch of epcoritamab in the U.S. and Japan, pending regulatory approvals, by deepening our talent base, focusing on impactful approaches and optimal access for all appropriate patients.
  • Our commercialization team is anchored in highly experienced leaders and teams across functions: medical affairs, marketing, market access, insights and analytics as well as field-based teams in the U.S. to ensure the best possible experience for care teams and their patients treated with our medicines.
  • We have built a global commercial team to help shape our development and go-to-market strategy in close partnership with R&D. Building a deep understanding of the potential and evolution of markets/segments will help ensure a thoughtful approach to advancing our pipeline.

At Genmab, commercialization is an integrated approach guided by our commitment to the patients we serve; everyone doing their part to ensure patients get the most from our next-generation differentiated antibody-based medicines.

Antibody Technologies

Antibodies are Y-shaped proteins that play a central role in immunity against bacteria and viruses (also known as pathogens). As we develop immunity, our bodies generate antibodies that bind to pathogen structures (known as antigens), which are specific to the pathogen. Once bound, the antibodies attract other parts of the immune system to eliminate the pathogen. In modern medicine, we have learned how to create and develop specific antibodies against antigens associated with diseased human cells for use in the treatment of diseases such as cancer and autoimmune disease. Genmab uses several types of technologies to create antibodies to treat disease and has developed proprietary antibody technologies including the DuoBody, HexaBody, DuoHexaBody and HexElect technology platforms. Information about these technologies can be found in the following sections and at www.genmab.com/research-innovation/antibody-technology-platforms/.

We use or license several other technologies to generate diverse libraries of high-quality, functional antibodies. In addition, we use or license technologies to increase the potency of some of our antibody therapeutics on a product-by-product basis, including ADCs. ADCs are antibodies with potent cytotoxic agents coupled to them. By using antibodies that recognize specific targets on tumor cells, these cytotoxic agents are preferentially delivered to the tumor cells.

DuoBody Technology Platform

Innovative Technology for Bispecific Antibody Therapeutics

  • Bispecific antibody technology platform
  • Potential in cancer, autoimmune, infectious, cardiovascular, central nervous system diseases and hemophilia
  • Commercial collaborations with AbbVie, Janssen and BioNTech among others, plus multiple research collaborations
  • First regulatory approvals for medicines created using the DuoBody technology platform — Janssen’s RYBREVANT and TECVAYLI
  • In the second half of 2022, Genmab submitted a BLA to the U.S. FDA and a JNDA to the MHLW for SC epcoritamab for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory LBCL. AbbVie submitted an MAA to the EMA for SC epcoritamab for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory DLBCL

The DuoBody technology platform is Genmab’s innovative platform for the discovery and development of bispecific antibodies. Bispecific antibodies bind to two different epitopes (or “docking” sites) either on the same or on different targets (also known as dual-targeting). Dual-targeting may improve binding specificity and enhance therapeutic efficacy or bring two different cells together (for example, engaging a T cell to kill a tumor cell). Bispecific antibodies generated with the DuoBody technology platform can be used for the development of therapeutics for diseases such as cancer, autoimmune, infectious, cardiovascular, central nervous system diseases and hemophilia. DuoBody molecules combine the benefits of bispecificity with the strengths of conventional antibodies, which allows DuoBody molecules to be administered and dosed the same way as other antibody therapeutics. Genmab’s DuoBody technology platform generates bispecific antibodies via a versatile and broadly applicable process that is easily performed at high throughput, standard bench, as well as at commercial manufacturing scale. Genmab uses the DuoBody technology platform to create its own bispecific antibody programs and the technology is also available for licensing. Genmab has numerous alliances for the DuoBody technology platform including commercial collaborations with AbbVie, Janssen, Novo Nordisk, BioNTech and Immatics.

Genmab’s proprietary DuoBody technology platform has been applied to a variety of bispecific antibody products in development, both in our own pipeline and in programs being developed by collaboration partners. The technology has been validated by the continued advancement of these investigational medicines through clinical development, including two medicines approved in both the U.S. and in Europe.

The innovative DuoBody technology platform generates bispecific antibodies via a fast, versatile and broadly applicable process called controlled Fab-arm exchange. With only minimal protein engineering, the technology allows the binding arms of two distinct monoclonal antibodies to exchange, combining into one stable bispecific antibody, thereby retaining regular immunoglobulin structure and function. The DuoBody technology platform is also highly suitable for high throughput generation, screening and discovery of bispecific antibodies in final therapeutic format.

HexaBody Technology Platform

Creating Differentiated Therapeutics

  • Enhanced potency antibody technology platform
  • Broadly applicable technology that builds on natural antibody biology
  • HexaBody-based investigational medicines in clinical development; HexaBody-CD38 (GEN3014) and HexaBody-CD27 (GEN1053/BNT313)

The HexaBody technology platform is a proprietary Genmab technology that is designed to increase the potency of antibodies. The HexaBody technology platform builds on natural biology and strengthens the natural killing ability of antibodies while retaining regular structure and specificity. The technology allows for the creation of potent therapeutics by inducing antibody hexamer formation (clusters of six antibodies) after binding to their target antigen on the cell surface. We have used the HexaBody technology platform to generate antibodies with enhanced complement-mediated killing, allowing antibodies with limited or absent killing capacity to be transformed into potent, cytotoxic antibodies. In addition to complement-mediated killing, the clustering of membrane receptors by the HexaBody technology platform can lead to subsequent outside-in signaling leading to cell death. The HexaBody technology platform creates opportunities to explore new antibody-based product candidates and repurpose drug candidates unsuccessful in previous clinical trials due to insufficient potency. The HexaBody technology platform is broadly applicable and can be combined with Genmab's DuoBody technology platform (DuoHexaBody technology platform) as well as other antibody technologies. The

technology has the potential to enhance antibody therapeutics for a broad range of applications including cancer and infectious diseases. Genmab is using the HexaBody technology platform for its own antibody programs and the technology is also available for licensing. Two HexaBody-based investigational medicines are currently in clinical development. Genmab entered into an exclusive worldwide license and option agreement with Janssen to develop and commercialize

HexaBody-CD38 (GEN3014), a next-generation CD38 monoclonal antibody-based investigational medicine. In 2022, Genmab and BioNTech expanded their global strategic collaboration to include co-development of monospecific antibody candidates leveraging the HexaBody technology. The first antibody in the clinic under this collaboration is HexaBody-CD27 (GEN1053/BNT313).

We currently have one investigational medicine created with the DuoHexaBody technology platform in the clinic, DuoHexaBody-CD37 (GEN3009). DuoHexaBody-CD37 is a bispecific antibody that targets two non-overlapping CD37 epitopes. It entered the clinic in 2020 and is currently being investigated in relapsed/refractory B-NHL, including potentially in combination with epcoritamab.

HexElect Technology Platform

Enhancing Selectivity and Potency

  • Antibody technology platform inspired by the HexaBody technology platform
  • Combines dual-targeting with enhanced selectivity and potency

The HexElect antibody technology platform is Genmab's newest proprietary antibody technology. This technology combines two HexaBody molecules designed to effectively and selectively hit only those cells that express both targets by making the activity of complexes of HexaBody molecules dependent on their binding to two different targets on the same cell. The HexElect technology platform maximizes efficacy while minimizing possible toxicity, potentially leading to more potent and safer investigational medicines.

Goal 13:

Climate Action:

Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts

We are committed to transparency and continued improvement of our climate disclosures. In 2022, we committed to supporting the recommendations of the TCFD. Our journey to reduce our impact on the environment inspired our work to establish a climate target to reduce our GHG emissions in line with the Paris Agreement to align our business to a future where global warming is kept at or below 1.5°C. We measure and report on emissions from our own operations and from purchased electricity and have begun the process of designing a model to collect data across our value chain for our Scope 3 emissions.

Genmab's Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)

Topic Recommended Disclosures Genmab's Disclosures
Risk Management Describe the organization's processes for identifying and assessing climate-related risks. In 2022, Genmab continued its assessment of climate-related risk and scenario analysis to identify key risks and opportunities. The risks have been assessed through stakeholder engagement and interviews.
Describe the organization's processes for managing climate-related risks. Climate-related risks identified will be considered as part of our ERM program, and responsibility for monitoring, prevention and mitigation will be cascaded to relevant functions within Genmab.
Describe how processes for identifying, assessing and managing climate-related risks are integrated into the organization's overall risk management.
Metrics and Targets Disclose the metrics used by the organization to assess climate-related risks and opportunities in line with its strategy and risk management process. Genmab reports on Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions in line with the GHG Protocol.
Genmab will develop metrics related to business continuity and natural disaster recovery. These may include, for instance, suppliers assessed/engaged on climate and climate risk topics, etc.
Disclose Scope 1, Scope 2 and, if appropriate, Scope 3 GHG emissions and the related risks. Genmab's Scope 1 and 2 emissions totaled 393.8 tonnes CO₂e in 2022. Emissions reductions will contribute to the mitigation of the transition risk of carbon taxes, pricing and tariffs.
In connection with our intent to commit to and set a climate target, Genmab started the process of measuring our Scope 3 emissions by estimating emissions from selected material Scope 3 categories. This estimation will be foundational in establishing the baseline for our climate ambitions, targets and emissions reductions.
Describe the targets used by the organization to manage climate-related risks and opportunities and performance against targets. Genmab intends to commit to and set a climate target to reduce our GHG emissions in line with the Paris Agreement goals.

We calculated our Scope 1 and 2 emissions in accordance with the global standard for carbon accounting, the GHG Protocol, and these were reduced by 38% compared to 2021. In 2022 we initiated the process of estimating our Scope 3 footprint in accordance with the GHG Protocol. A thorough assessment of Genmab's value chain emissions based on 2021 spend-data showed us that there is a need for higher quality data. This is due to our business model, where key carbon intensive process steps for the discovery and development of our antibody-based molecules are outsourced, and a majority of revenue is generated based on royalty streams from

out-licensed products. The 2022 assessment had an unacceptable uncertainty level with regards to >90% of our estimated emissions. We will continue to improve the quality of our data and we will strive to engage with our suppliers and partners in order to obtain a Scope 3 carbon footprint with an acceptable level of accuracy, acknowledging that carbon footprint mapping is inherently uncertain.

Carbon Emissions 2022
Total Scope 1 emissions (tCO₂e) 283.1
Total Scope 2 emissions (tCO₂e) 110.7
Total Scope 1 & 2 emissions (tCO₂e) 393.8
Electricity Consumption and Renewables 2022

Stakeholder Engagement

Patient Advocacy Organizations

With our first medicine on the market, we have an obligation to engage with patient advocates to ensure we are providing as much support as possible to patients in need.

Why are they important to us?

Transforming the lives of patients is our purpose. Supporting and collaborating with patient advocacy organizations is an important way in which Genmab can positively impact the lives of patients.

How do we engage with them?

Over the course of the past few years, we have actively sought out patient advocacy groups, both to provide our financial support for their efforts and programs and also to collaborate and bring them to our locations for educational events with the Genmab team.

In 2022 we, along with our partner Seagen, launched CeMe, a disease awareness campaign that leverages real-life storytelling to spotlight the barriers to treatment and challenges associated with cervical cancer. The campaign features diverse members of the cervical cancer community, including patients and patient advocates, in content on the CeMe YouTube channel. Social media posts encourage visits to the YouTube channel to watch the videos and seek additional information from various patient advocacy groups.

Our Communities

Our team members actively engage in the communities in which we operate.

Why are they important to us?

As part of Genmab's ongoing commitment to CSR we aim to be good citizens not only of the world but of the local communities in which our facilities are located.

How do we engage with them?

Throughout 2022, Genmab supported community-based activities; for example, on September 13, 2022, nearly 500 Genmab colleagues participated in the first annual Global Volunteer Day. Colleagues from Denmark, the Netherlands and the U.S. helped more than 30 nonprofit organizations in their communities. Activities included: removing invasive plants from a nature preserve, building toys for children with serious illnesses, making comfort kits for cancer patients, and assembling food kits to combat hunger in our local communities.

Colleagues can also use the Community@Genmab Portal to learn about Genmab's impact, share volunteer stories, and access the Global Employee Giving Program.

Financial Review

The financial statements are prepared on a consolidated basis for Genmab A/S (parent company) and its subsidiaries. The Genmab financial statements are published in Danish Kroner (DKK). The Genmab consolidated Group is referenced herein as "Genmab" or the "Company".

Result for the Year

Guidance and Result for 2022

(DKK million) Latest Guidance Actual
Revenue 13,500–14,500 14,595
Operating expenses (8,000)–(8,400) (8,238)
Operating profit 5,100–6,500 6,357

Actual revenue was favorable to guidance primarily due to higher than anticipated milestone revenue and slightly favorable USD/DKK foreign exchange rate movements. Operating expenses and operating profit were in line with the latest guidance published on November 9, 2022.

Revenue

Genmab's revenue was DKK 14,595 million in 2022 compared to DKK 8,482 million in 2021. The increase of DKK 6,113 million, or 72%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX and Kesimpta royalties achieved under our collaborations with Janssen and Novartis, respectively, due to higher net sales and higher average exchange rate between the USD and DKK, and milestones achieved in 2022 under our collaboration with AbbVie.

Royalties

Royalty revenue amounted to DKK 11,672 million in 2022 compared to DKK 6,977 million in 2021. The increase of DKK 4,695 million, or 67%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX, Kesimpta and TEPEZZA royalties achieved under our daratumumab collaboration with Janssen, ofatumumab collaboration with Novartis, and teprotumumab collaboration with Roche, respectively. The following table summarizes Genmab's royalty revenue by product.

(DKK million) 2022 2021
DARZALEX 10,056 6,135
TEPEZZA 796 593
Kesimpta 779 235
Other 41 14
Total royalties 11,672 6,977

Net sales of DARZALEX by Janssen were USD 7,977 million in 2022 compared to USD 6,023 million in 2021. The increase of USD 1,954 million, or 32%, was driven by share gains, continued strong market growth and uptake of the DARZALEX SC product. Royalty revenue on net sales of DARZALEX was DKK 10,056 million in 2022 compared to DKK 6,135 million in 2021, an increase of DKK 3,921 million. The percentage increase in royalties of 64% is higher than the percentage increase in the underlying net sales primarily due to the higher average exchange rate between the USD and DKK, other positive foreign exchange rate impacts, and a higher effective royalty rate for 2022, partly offset by the increase in Genmab's share of Janssen's royalty payments to Halozyme in connection with SC product net sales. Under our license agreement with Janssen for DARZALEX, for purposes of calculating royalties due to Genmab, DARZALEX net sales for non-U.S. dollar denominated currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at a specified annual Currency Hedge Rate. This contractual arrangement is the driver for the other foreign exchange impacts discussed above.

Financial Review

Royalty revenue on net sales of TEPEZZA was DKK 796 million in 2022 compared to DKK 593 million in 2021, an increase of DKK 203 million, or 34%. TEPEZZA net sales in the first quarter of 2021 were negatively impacted by the U.S. government-mandated COVID-19 production interruption.

Net sales of Kesimpta by Novartis were USD 1,092 million in 2022 compared to USD 372 million in 2021. The increase of USD 720 million was driven by strong launch uptake, access and increased demand. Royalty revenue on net sales of Kesimpta was DKK 779 million in 2022 compared to DKK 235 million in 2021, an increase of DKK 544 million.

Janssen was granted U.S. FDA approval for RYBREVANT during the second quarter of 2021, and Genmab subsequently started recognizing royalties on net sales of RYBREVANT. Royalties were not material for 2022 or 2021.

Janssen was granted approval for TECVAYLI for the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma during the third quarter of 2022 in Europe and in the fourth quarter of 2022 in the U.S. Royalties were not material for 2022.

Royalty revenue fluctuations from period to period are driven by the level of product net sales, foreign currency exchange rate movements and more specifically to DARZALEX, the contractual arrangement related to annual Currency Hedge Rate, and Genmab's share of Janssen's royalty payments to Halozyme in connection with SC product net sales.

Reimbursement Revenue

Reimbursement revenue, mainly comprised of the reimbursement of certain research and development costs related to the development work under Genmab's collaboration agreements, amounted to DKK 818 million in 2022 compared to DKK 531 million in 2021. The increase of DKK 287 million, or 54%, was primarily driven by higher activities under our collaboration agreements with BioNTech for HexaBody-CD27 and DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB.

Milestone Revenue

Milestone revenue was DKK 1,767 million in 2022 compared to DKK 954 million in 2021, an increase of DKK 813 million, or 85%, primarily driven by the following:

  • AbbVie milestone of DKK 577 million (USD 80 million) driven by the acceptance of the BLA by the U.S. FDA for epcoritamab,
  • AbbVie milestone of DKK 444 million (USD 60 million) triggered by the validation of the MAA by the EMA in the EU for epcoritamab,
  • Janssen milestones of DKK 189 million (USD 25 million) and DKK 112 million (USD 15 million) for the approval of TECVAYLI for the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma in the U.S. and Europe, respectively, and
  • AbbVie milestone of DKK 153 million (USD 20 million) driven by the initiation, or first patient dosed, of a pivotal trial (Phase 3) in the second indication for epcoritamab.

The increase in milestone revenue in 2022 was partly offset by milestones achieved in 2021 under our Janssen and AbbVie collaborations.

Milestone revenue may fluctuate significantly from period to period due to both the timing of achievements and the varying amount of each individual milestone under our license and collaboration agreements.

Collaboration Revenue

In September 2021, Genmab and Seagen announced U.S. FDA accelerated approval for Tivdak in previously treated recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer. Collaboration revenue was DKK 332 million in 2022 compared to DKK 20 million in 2021. The increase of DKK 312 million was primarily driven by increased sales of Tivdak and also includes a one-off payment due from Seagen of DKK 112 million (approximately USD 15 million) which reflects Genmab's share (50%) of payments received by Seagen in connection with the sublicense of its rights to develop and commercialize tisotumab vedotin in China to Zai Lab Hong Kong pursuant to Genmab's Joint Commercialization Agreement with Seagen.

Refer to Note 2.1 for further details about revenue.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses increased by DKK 2,774 million, or 51%, from DKK 5,464 million in 2021 to DKK 8,238 million in 2022.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses amounted to DKK 5,562 million in 2022 compared to DKK 4,181 million in 2021. The increase of DKK 1,381 million, or 33% was driven by the continued advancement of our product pipeline including epcoritamab under our collaboration with AbbVie, and DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB under our collaboration with BioNTech, and the increase in team members to support the expansion of our product pipeline.

Research and development costs accounted for 68% of the total operating expenses in 2022 compared to 77% in 2021.

Research and development expenses related to our pre-clinical projects increased by DKK 51 million, or 7%, in 2022 as compared to 2021, driven by the continued investment in and number of pre-clinical programs.

Upfront payments increased by DKK 94 million, or 154%, driven by an increase in the number of R&D license payments in 2022 as compared to 2021.

Personnel, unallocated costs and overhead increased by DKK 547 million, or 35%, in 2022 as compared to 2021, primarily due to an increase in staffing levels and the expansion of our facilities to accommodate our growth. Our research and development FTEs increased from 927 at the end of 2021 to 1,193 at the end of 2022.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were DKK 2,676 million in 2022 compared to DKK 1,283 million in 2021. The increase of DKK 1,393 million, or 109%, was driven by the increase in team members to support Tivdak post launch, continued expansion of Genmab's commercialization capabilities in support of future launches including the potential launch of epcoritamab, and investment in broader organizational infrastructure, including our technology portfolio.

DKK 1,065 million, or 40% of selling, general and administrative expenses in 2022, was related to compensation of Genmab team members involved in selling, general and administrative activities, as compared to DKK 529 million, or 41% in 2021.

Selling, general and administrative expenses accounted for 32% of the total operating expenses in 2022 compared to 23% in 2021.

Operating Profit

Operating profit was DKK 6,357 million in 2022 compared to DKK 3,018 million in 2021, an increase of DKK 3,339 million, or 111%.

Net Financial Items

Net financial items were comprised of the following:

(DKK million) 2022 2021
Financial income:
Interest and other financial income 324 197
Foreign exchange rate gain, net 1,034 1,470
Total financial income 1,358 1,667
Financial expenses:
Interest and other financial expenses (21) (13)
Loss on marketable securities, net (361) (246)
Loss on other investments, net (298) (443)
Total financial expenses (680) (702)
Net financial items 678 965

Net financial items decreased by DKK 287 million, or 30%, which were primarily driven by:

  • Foreign exchange movements impacting Genmab's USD denominated marketable securities and cash and cash equivalents; in particular, the USD/DKK foreign exchange rate increased 8% from year-end 2020 to year-end 2021 as compared to only 6% from year-end 2021 to year-end 2022,
  • Loss on marketable securities driven by higher interest rates on Genmab's Danish mortgage investments in 2022 as compared to 2021, partly offset by,
  • Lower loss on other investments in 2022 as compared to 2021 driven primarily by the decrease in fair value of Genmab's investment in common shares of CureVac, and

  • Increase in interest income due to higher effective interest rates in the U.S., Europe and Denmark in 2022 as compared to 2021.

Refer to Notes 4.2 and 4.5 for further details regarding foreign currency risk and net financial items, respectively.

Corporate Tax

Corporate tax expense for 2022 was DKK 1,513 million compared to DKK 975 million for 2021. The increase in corporate tax expense is primarily the result of Genmab's higher net profit before tax. The effective tax rate in 2022 was 21.5% compared to 24.5% in 2021. The decrease in Genmab's effective tax rate was mainly driven by the ability to offset current taxable income through the deduction of capitalized R&D costs in the Netherlands and utilization of U.S. net operating loss carryforwards.

Refer to Note 2.4 for additional information regarding the corporate tax and deferred tax assets including management's significant judgements and estimates.

Net Profit

Net profit for 2022 was DKK 5,522 million compared to DKK 3,008 million in 2021. The increase of DKK 2,514 million, or 84%, was driven by the items described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

December 31,
(DKK million) 2022 2021
Marketable securities 12,431 10,381
Cash and cash equivalents 9,893 8,957
Shareholders' equity 27,441 22,196

As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, cash and cash equivalents and marketable

securities denominated in USD represented 86% of Genmab's total cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities.

Marketable securities are invested in highly secure and liquid investments with short effective maturities. As of December 31, 2022, 75% of Genmab's marketable securities were long-term A rated or higher, or short-term rated A-1/P-1 by S&P, Moody's or Fitch compared to 68% as of December 31, 2021.

As of December 31, 2022, DKK 9,893 million, as compared to DKK 8,957 million as of December 31, 2021, was held as cash and cash equivalents, and DKK 12,431 million, as compared to DKK 10,381 million as of December 31, 2021, was held as liquid investments in short-term government and other debt instruments.

Cash and cash equivalents included short-term marketable securities of DKK 594 million at the end of December 2022, compared to DKK 296 million at the end of December 2021. In accordance with Genmab's accounting policy, securities purchased with a maturity of less than 90 days at the date of acquisition are classified as cash and cash equivalents.

Genmab requires cash to meet our operating expenses and capital expenditures. We have funded our cash requirements since inception, including through December 31, 2022, primarily with royalty and milestone payments from our partners, upfront payments and equity financing. Genmab expects to continue to fund a significant

portion of our development costs for proprietary product candidates as well as commercialization activities with cash received from royalties and milestone payments from partners.

Genmab's expenditures on current and future pre-clinical and clinical development programs are subject to numerous uncertainties in timing and cost to completion. In order to advance our product candidates toward commercialization, the product candidates are tested in numerous pre-clinical safety, toxicology and efficacy studies. Genmab then conducts clinical trials for those product candidates that take several years or more to complete. The length of time varies substantially based upon the type, complexity, novelty and intended use of a product candidate. The cost of clinical trials may vary significantly over the life of a project as a result of a variety of factors, including: the number of patients required in the clinical trials; the length of time required to enroll trial participants; the number and location of sites included in the trials; the costs of producing supplies of the product candidates needed for clinical trials and regulatory submissions; the safety and efficacy profile of the product candidate; the use of CROs to assist with the management of the trials; and the costs and timing of, and the ability to secure, regulatory approvals.

Genmab's expenses also fluctuate from period to period based on the degree of collaborative activities, timing of manufacturing campaigns, numbers of patients enrolled in clinical trials and the outcome of each clinical trial event. As a

result, the Company is unable to determine with any degree of certainty the anticipated completion dates, duration and completion costs of research and development projects, or when and to what extent Genmab will receive cash inflows from the commercialization and sale of any product candidates. The Company also cannot predict the actual amount or timing of future royalties and milestone payments, and these may differ from estimates. Further, as the global COVID-19 pandemic has continued to evolve, there may be long-term impacts on the development, regulatory approval and commercialization of our product candidates and on net sales of our approved products by our collaboration partners.

Genmab expects to make additional capital outlays and to increase operating expenditures over the next several years as the Company hires additional employees, supports pre-clinical development, manufacturing, clinical trial activities, product collaborations and commercialization activities. As spending increases on research, development and commercialization activities related to product collaborations, Genmab may be required to make certain capital outlays against which Genmab expects to receive reimbursement to the extent the outlay exceeds Genmab's share under the applicable collaboration agreement. The Company expects that the time-lag between the expenditure by us, on the one hand, and the reimbursement by a partner of its relevant share, on the other hand, will increase Genmab's working capital needs. To the extent the Company's capital resources are insufficient to meet future capital requirements, Genmab will need to finance

operating requirements and cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, or additional corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements.

Refer to Notes 4.2 and 4.4 for additional information regarding our financial risks and marketable securities, respectively.

Cash Flows

The following table provides information regarding Genmab's cash flow for 2022 and 2021.

Cash Flow (DKK million) 2022 2021
Cash provided by operating activities 3,912 2,228
Cash (used in) investing activities (2,761) (961)
Cash (used in)/provided by financing activities (789) (420)
Increase in cash and cash equivalents 362 847
Exchange rate adjustments 574 850

Net cash provided by operating activities is primarily related to our operating profit, changes in operating assets and liabilities, reversal of net financial items, and adjustments related to non-cash transactions. Cash provided by operating activities increased compared to 2021 primarily driven by an increase in operating profit of DKK 3,339 million, partly offset by AbbVie milestones achieved during the fourth quarter of 2022 that were uncollected at year-end 2022 of

DKK 1.1 billion, and an increase in corporate tax payments of DKK 841 million due to higher net profit before tax.

Net cash (used in) investing activities primarily reflects differences between the proceeds received from the sale and maturity of our investments and amounts invested, and the cash paid for investments in tangible assets. Purchases of marketable securities exceeded sales and maturities to a greater extent in 2022 compared to 2021. In 2021, investing activities also include the proceeds from the sale of CureVac shares of DKK 438 million. There were no sales of other investments in 2022.

Net cash (used in) financing activities is primarily related to the purchase of treasury shares, exercise of warrants, lease payments, and payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees on net settled Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). The increase in cash used in financing activities for the periods is primarily driven by cash payments for the purchase of treasury shares of DKK 908 million in 2022 compared to DKK 447 million in 2021.

Exchange rate adjustments represent foreign currency gains or losses on Genmab's cash and cash equivalents, primarily driven by our cash and cash equivalents holdings denominated in USD. The USD/DKK foreign exchange rate increased 8% in 2021 as compared to only 6% in 2022.

Balance Sheet

As of December 31, 2022, total assets were DKK 30,278 million, compared to DKK 24,627 million as of December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2022, assets are mainly comprised of marketable securities of DKK 12,431 million, cash and cash equivalents of DKK 9,893 million, and current receivables of DKK 5,910 million. The receivables consist primarily of amounts related to royalties, milestones, and reimbursement revenue from our collaboration agreements. The credit risk related to our receivables is not significant based on the high-quality nature of Genmab's collaboration partners.

Refer to Note 3.5 for additional information regarding receivables.

As of December 31, 2022, total liabilities were DKK 2,837 million compared to DKK 2,431 million as of December 31, 2021. The increase in total liabilities of DKK 406 million, or 17%, was driven by an increase in other payables of DKK 234 million primarily related to accrued compensation as a result of team growth from 2021 to 2022, and lease liabilities of DKK 172 million related to the commencement of leases in the Netherlands in 2022.

Shareholders' equity as of December 31, 2022 was DKK 27,441 million compared to DKK 22,196 million as of December 31, 2021. The increase of DKK 5,245 million, or 24%, was driven primarily by Genmab's net profit and share-based compensation expense related to the issuance of shares under Genmab's warrant and RSU programs, partly offset by the purchase of treasury shares during the period. Genmab's equity ratio was 91% as of December 31, 2022 compared to 90% as of December 31, 2021.

Legal Matters — Janssen Binding Arbitrations

In September 2020, Genmab commenced binding arbitration of two matters arising under its license agreement with Janssen relating to daratumumab. Under the license agreement, Genmab is, among other things, entitled to royalties from Janssen on net sales of daratumumab (marketed as DARZALEX for IV administration and as DARZALEX FASPRO in the U.S. and as DARZALEX SC in Europe for SC administration). In April 2022, the arbitral tribunal issued an award in the binding arbitration of the two matters. Genmab did not seek a review of the award, and the award is now final.

The first matter concerned the question as to whether Janssen's obligation to pay royalties on sales of licensed product extends, in each applicable country, until the expiration or invalidation of the last-to-expire relevant Genmab-owned patent or the last-to-expire relevant Janssen-owned patent covering the product, as further defined and described in the license agreement. As to that matter, the tribunal determined by majority opinion that Janssen's obligation to pay royalties to Genmab on sales of licensed product, in each applicable country, extends through the expiration or invalidation of the last-to-expire relevant Genmab-owned patent covering the product or use thereof, but not the relevant Janssen-owned patent. The relevant Genmab-owned issued U.S., European and Japanese patents will expire in the late 2020s and early 2030s.

The second matter concerned the question as to whether Genmab is required to share in Janssen's royalty payments to Halozyme for the Halozyme enzyme technology used in the SC formulation of daratumumab (marketed as DARZALEX FASPRO in the U.S.). The royalties Janssen pays to Halozyme represent a mid-single digit percentage rate of SC daratumumab sales. As to that matter, the tribunal ruled by majority opinion that Janssen is permitted to continue reducing its royalty payments to Genmab as an offset against a share of Janssen's royalty payments made to Halozyme.

On June 9, 2022, Genmab announced the commencement of a second arbitration under the daratumumab license agreement with Janssen. This second arbitration follows from the award in the prior arbitration, where the tribunal ruled in favor of Janssen on the question as to whether Genmab is required to share in Janssen's royalty payments to Halozyme for its technology used in the daratumumab SC product. The tribunal based its ruling on the finding that DARZALEX FASPRO constitutes a new licensed product under the license agreement.

In this second arbitration, Genmab is consequently seeking an award of USD 405 million plus interest in accrued milestone payments for DARZALEX FASPRO and a declaration that it is entitled to a new 13-year royalty term from the date of DARZALEX FASPRO's first commercial sale. See Company Announcement no. 21/2022.

Risk Management

Genmab has core facilities in four countries and performs research and development activities with clinical trials conducted around the globe. We have also begun to commercialize medicines. Through our activities, we are exposed to a variety of risks, some of which are inherent in our business and/or beyond our control. These risks may have a significant impact on our business if not properly assessed and controlled. Maintaining a strong control environment, with adequate procedures for identification and assessment of risks and adhering to operational policies designed to reduce such risks to an acceptable level, is essential for the continued evolution of Genmab. It is our policy to identify and reduce the risks derived from our operations and to establish insurance coverage and other risk reduction and resilience mechanisms to mitigate any residual risk, wherever considered practicable. The Audit and Finance Committee of the Board of Directors performs a yearly review of Genmab's Enterprise Risk Program and relevant insurance coverage to ensure that they are appropriate. For further information about the risks and uncertainties that Genmab faces, refer to the current Form 20-F filed with the SEC.

The use of Data, as defined in the Danish Financial Statements Act, both personal and non-personal, is essential to fulfilling Genmab's core purpose; and Genmab is committed to handling Data with integrity and in an ethical and compliant manner considering the impact our actions may have on individuals and society.

During 2022, Genmab has developed a policy for Data Ethics in light of Section 99d of the Danish Financial Statements Act in which Genmab adopts the Data Ethics principles of the International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers & Associations (IFPMA).

These principles complement and strengthen already existing Genmab policies and procedures, and they focus on the following areas:

  1. Autonomy: Respect individuals' privacy, protect their rights, and honor confidentiality
  2. Transparency: Individuals should be able to understand how their personal Data is used
  3. Data Quality: The best quality Data available should be used to make decisions
  4. Fairness and Non-discrimination: Data acquisition should be inclusive, equitable, and seek to support the industry's mission of responding to the needs of all patients
  5. Ethics by Design: Controls to prevent harm and risks to individuals should be built into the design of Data architecture and Data processing

  6. Responsible Data Sharing: Data sharing should be based on processes that actively and consistently consider, prioritize, and protect individual rights

  7. Responsibility and Accountability: Data Ethics Principles should be operationalized through effective governance, clear standards, training, monitoring activities, and disciplinary sanctions

The Genmab Data Ethics policy has been communicated to our management for further distribution and consideration within Genmab's various departments. During 2023, Genmab will focus on further embedding these principles into its operations, particularly in the areas of data privacy, DE&I, clinical trials, and the application of new technologies (e.g., Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning), where policies, processes, and training materials will be aligned with the above-mentioned principles. Going forward, the Genmab Data Ethics policy and its principles will be anchored in the Genmab Code of Conduct as part of the overall Genmab Compliance program.

The following is a summary of Genmab's key risk areas and how we address and mitigate such risks. Environmental and ethical risks are also covered in Genmab's statutory report on Corporate Responsibility.

Risk related to Business and Products Risk areas Mitigation Risk trend
The identification and development of successful products is expensive and includes time-consuming clinical trials with uncertain outcomes and the risk of failure to obtain regulatory approval in one or more jurisdictions. Genmab has a disciplined approach to investment, focusing on areas with the potential to maximize success, including new technologies and formats, scaling up to expand from early- to late-stage development and commercialization. Genmab has established various committees to ensure optimal selection of disease targets and formats of our antibody candidates, and to monitor progress of pre-clinical and clinical development. We strive to have a well-balanced product pipeline and continue to identify and search for new product candidates and closely follow the market.
Genmab is dependent on the identification and development of new proprietary technologies and access to new third-party technologies. This exposes us to safety issues as well as other failures and setbacks related to use of such new or existing technologies. Genmab continually strives to identify and develop new technologies, such as the DuoBody, HexaBody, DuoHexaBody and HexElect technology platforms, and gain access to competitive and complementary new third-party technologies such as ADC technology and messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) technology. We closely monitor our pre-clinical programs and clinical trials to mitigate any unforeseen safety issues or other failures, or setbacks associated with the use of our proprietary technology platforms, ADC technology or mRNA technology.
Genmab faces ongoing uncertainty about the successful commercialization of product candidates. This is a result of factors including immense competition on the basis of cost and efficacy as well as rapid technological change, which may result in others discovering, developing or commercializing competing products before and/or more successfully than us. From early in the research phase and throughout development, commercial potential and product commercialization, associated risks are assessed to ensure that final products have the potential to be commercially viable. Genmab attempts to control commercial risks in part by regularly monitoring and evaluating current market conditions, competing products and new technologies, to potentially gain access to new technologies and products that may supplement our pipeline. Genmab also strives to ensure market exclusivity for its own technologies and products by seeking patent protection. 1
Genmab's near- and mid-term prospects are substantially dependent on continued clinical and commercial success of DARZALEX. Genmab focuses on its three-pronged strategy of focusing on our core competence, turning science into medicine and building a profitable and successful biotech to develop a broad pipeline of unique best-in-class or first-in-class antibody products with significant commercial potential. In addition, Genmab maintains a strong cash position, disciplined financial management, and a flexible and capital efficient business model to mitigate potential setbacks related to DARZALEX.
DARZALEX is subject to intense competition in the multiple myeloma therapy market. In 2020, two additional Genmab-created antibody products, Kesimpta and TEPEZZA, were approved by the U.S. FDA. In 2021 and 2022, respectively, the first and second DuoBody-based medicines, RYBREVANT and TECVAYL, were approved by the U.S. FDA and the European Commission. All of these provide Genmab with additional recurring royalty revenue. Tivdak, Genmab's first medicine, in development with Seagen, was approved by the U.S. FDA and product sales of Tivdak commenced in 2021.
Genmab has exposure to product liability claims related to the use or misuse of our products and technologies. Product liability claims and/or litigation could materially affect our business and financial position, and Genmab therefore strives to maintain robust internal processes for the review, approval, and compliant use of promotion materials and also maintains appropriate product liability insurance for our clinical trials and our approved products and other coverage required under applicable laws.
Our core research and manufacturing activities are carried out at a limited number of locations. Any event resulting in Genmab's or our vendors'/suppliers' inability to operate these facilities could materially disrupt our business. Genmab employs oversight and quality risk management principles. In addition, Genmab follows Good Laboratory Practices (GLP), Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and requires that our vendors operate with the same standards. Genmab has established a quality assurance (QA) department to set high-quality standards and monitor adherence to these Practices. 1

Risk Management

Risk related to Business and Products (continued) Risk areas Mitigation Risk trend
Business and Products (continued) If we are unable to effectively manage Genmab's continued fast-paced growth or build our commercialization and other capabilities, our business, financial condition and net profits may be adversely affected. Any business disruption or failure to properly manage this continued growth and transformation in a manner that reflects and supports our organizational strategies and priorities, while assuring ethical business practices, prudent risk management, and commercial compliance, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We have experienced rapid growth over the last several years, and we anticipate further growth as our pipeline advances, and we move toward further commercialization of products. Such growth, including enabling new commercialization, support and other functions, has placed significant demands on our management and infrastructure, including new operational and financial systems, as well as extending manufacturing and commercial outsource arrangements. Our success will depend in part upon our ability to manage this growth effectively through leadership, focused prioritization and talent management, and maintaining our robust, values-based, collaborative culture. As we continue to grow and evolve, we must continuously improve our operational, commercial, compliance, financial and management practices and controls.
Genmab is subject to government regulations on pricing/public reimbursement as well as other healthcare payer cost-containment initiatives; increased pressures by governmental and third-party payers to reduce healthcare costs. Genmab strives to develop differentiated, cost-effective products that are well-positioned to secure reasonable price reimbursement by government healthcare programs and private health insurers. Genmab has also established a US Government Affairs & Policy department to interact with federal and state policymakers to advance policies aimed at improving patient lives through access to quality healthcare. The US Market Access department was established to educate payers on the value of our products.
Strategic Collaborations Genmab is dependent on existing and new partnerships with major pharmaceutical or biotech companies to support our business and develop and commercialize our products. Our business may suffer if our collaboration partners do not devote sufficient resources to our programs and products, do not successfully maintain, defend and enforce their intellectual property rights or do not otherwise have the ability to successfully develop or commercialize our products, independently or in collaboration with others. Our business may also suffer if we are not able to continue our current collaborations or establish new collaborations. Genmab strives to be an attractive and respected collaboration partner, and to pursue a close and open dialogue with our collaboration partners to share ideas and align on best practices and decisions within clinical development and commercialization to increase the likelihood that we reach our goals.
Genmab is primarily dependent on one contract manufacturing organization to produce and supply our product candidates. Genmab is also dependent on clinical research organizations to conduct key aspects of our clinical trials, and on collaboration partners to conduct some of our clinical trials. Genmab oversees outsourcing and partnership relationships to ensure consistency with strategic objectives and service provider compliance with regulatory requirements, resources and performance. This includes assessment of contingency plans, availability of alternative service providers and costs and resources required to switch service providers. We continually evaluate financial solvency and require our suppliers to abide by a code of conduct consistent with Genmab's Code of Conduct.

Regulation, Legislation, and Compliance Genmab is subject to extensive legislative, regulatory and other requirements both during clinical development and commercialization and post-marketing approval, including healthcare, marketing/promotion, fraud and abuse, competition/antitrust laws and regulations, as well as transparency, data protection and other requirements. To ensure compliance with applicable healthcare laws and regulations, Genmab has established a robust compliance program, including a Code of Conduct that is evaluated periodically and sets high ethical standards on which all colleagues receive regular training. Also, our head of Global Compliance reports directly to the CEO. The data protection area, including policies and guidance for the processing and protection of personal data, is supported by the Company's Data Protection Officer. 1
Genmab is subject to strict disclosure obligations under applicable laws and regulations, including the EU Market Abuse Regulation. As a consequence of the listing on the Nasdaq Global Select market, we are subject to additional U.S. regulatory requirements, including U.S. securities laws and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and may become more exposed to U.S. class actions. To further support compliance with regulatory, legal and other requirements applicable to our business and operations, including current Good Laboratory Practices (cGLP), current Good Clinical Practices (cGCP) and current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), Genmab has established a quality assurance department whose function includes staying abreast of and adhering to regulatory and legislative changes relevant to quality standards. Genmab has also established relevant procedures and guidelines to ensure transparency with respect to providing timely, adequate and correct information to the market and otherwise comply with applicable securities laws and other legal and regulatory requirements. Genmab has an Internal Audit function that reports to the Audit and Finance Committee of the Board of Directors and administratively reports to the CFO.
Legislation, regulations, industry codes and practices, and their application may change from time to time. To prevent unwarranted consequences of new and amended legislation, regulations, etc., Genmab strives to stay current with respect to all applicable legislation, regulations, industry codes and practices by means of its internal compliance function and related governance bodies as well as internal and external legal counsel. Also, internal procedures for review and refinement of contracts are ongoing to ensure contractual consistency and compliance with applicable legislation, regulation, and other standards.
Intellectual Property Genmab is dependent on protecting our own intellectual property rights to regain our investments and protect our competitive positions. Genmab files and prosecutes patent applications to optimally protect its products and technologies. To protect trade secrets and technologies, Genmab maintains strict confidentiality standards and agreements for employees and collaborating parties.
We may become involved in lawsuits to protect or enforce our patents or other intellectual property which could result in costly litigation and unfavorable outcomes. Genmab actively monitors third-party patent positions within our relevant fields to avoid violating any third-party patent rights.
Claims may be asserted against us that we infringe the intellectual property of third parties, which could result in costly litigation and unfavorable outcomes.
Finances Genmab may need additional funding. Because Genmab's future commercial potential and operating profits are hard to predict, Genmab's policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence, and a continuous advancement of Genmab's product pipeline and business in general.
Genmab is exposed to different kinds of financial risks, including currency exposure and changes in interest rates as well as changes in Danish, U.S. or foreign tax laws or related compliance requirements. Genmab has established financial risk management guidelines to identify and analyze relevant risks, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor the risks and adherence to limits.

Risk related to Management and Workforce Risk areas Mitigation Risk trend
Management and Workforce Genmab may have an inability to attract and retain suitably qualified team members as it continues to grow. To attract and retain our highly skilled team, including the members of Genmab's Senior Leadership, Genmab offers competitive remuneration packages, including share-based remuneration. Genmab strives to create a positive and energizing working environment with development and training opportunities for its team members. Genmab has strong core values that nourish high-integrity and ethical behavior, respectful and candid tone and culture, as well as trust and teamwork. Please refer to Note 4.6 of the financial statements for additional information regarding share-based compensation. 1
Cybersecurity Genmab may be subject to malicious cyber-attacks which can lead to the theft or leakage of intellectual property, sensitive business data, or personal employee or patient data, with the result of significant business disruptions, monetary loss or fines from authorities, or reputational damage. Genmab has implemented robust security controls and processes to enhance the identification of potential data/ systems security issues and mitigate the risk of security breaches. Genmab makes use of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework and other security standards to define and implement such security controls. Due to the continually changing threat environment, regular assessments are executed to ensure that implemented security controls and processes follow the threat profile of the Company and effectively support Genmab's ambitious business strategy. The risk of security breaches is regarded as enterprise risk and the Company's threat profile, the security program and security incidents are presented and discussed in meetings of the Global Compliance and Risk Committee and the Audit and Finance Committee of the Board of Directors. 1
COVID-19 Pandemic The global outbreak of COVID-19 has continued to evolve, may be further prolonged, and may have long-term impacts on the development, regulatory approval and commercialization of our product candidates and on net sales of our approved products. The extent, length and consequences of the pandemic are uncertain and impossible to predict. The factors discussed above, as well as other factors which are currently unanticipated or unforeseeable, may result in further and other unforeseen material adverse impacts on our business and financial performance. Genmab has a COVID-19 response team, led by the CEO, that monitors the situation and implements precautionary measures based on local recommendations, as necessary to help limit the impact of COVID-19 at our workplace and on our communities, and that helps ensure business continuity and mitigate effects on employee well-being. While global health authorities and global vaccination efforts alleviated some of the adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, Genmab assesses the situation on an ongoing basis in close contact with clinical trial sites, physicians and CROs to evaluate the impact and challenges posed by the COVID-19 situation and manage them accordingly.
Climate Genmab's inability to manage the carbon footprint from our business operations; climate-related events may impact our business operations or that of our third-party partners or suppliers. In 2022, we continued the assessment of our carbon footprint and the implementation of the TCFD recommendations. We calculated our Scope 1 and 2 emissions for 2022 in accordance with the global standard for carbon accounting, the GHG Protocol. In 2022 we also initiated the process of estimating our Scope 3 footprint in accordance with the GHG Protocol.
Genmab makes use of scenario analysis to evaluate our risks and opportunities due to the rapid pace of world climate change. Genmab's work with climate strategy, carbon reduction targets, climate-related financial risk, relevant prevention and mitigation measures will be presented to the Board of Directors biannually.

Enterprise Risk Management

As an international biotech company dedicated to improving the lives of cancer patients around the world, Genmab operates within a heavily regulated environment that exposes us to an ever-evolving set of risks, some of which are beyond our control. We maintain facilities in four countries, conduct activities in additional areas, and perform an array of essential innovation, research, development, commercialization and support functions, all of which pose risks to our operations and success. Specifically, these operations and activities expose us to risks that include but may not be limited to financial, research and development, regulatory, IT/data/technology, staffing, compliance, legal, and also environmental risks.

In order to assure that we are positioned to effectively identify and mitigate the potential impacts of these risks, Genmab has dedicated significant resources toward enabling a more robust ERM framework under the Global Compliance & Risk function that reports directly to the CEO. In concert with a refreshed Code of Conduct, company policies and procedures, Genmab has chartered a Global Compliance and Risk Governance Committee (GCRC) co-chaired by the CEO and the head of Compliance & Risk. Genmab has also updated our risk model and framework to include significantly enhanced risk oversight, mitigation, governance and reporting, all of which we believe positions us to better manage the risks associated with our business, now and into the future.

Effective ERM starts with strong governance

Board of Directors and Audit and Finance Committee Board of Directors delegates ERM/Risk oversight to the Audit and Finance Committee but retains visibility of ERM progress. The Audit and Finance Committee is accountable to ensure management appropriately manages the risks to the business.
Executive Management Maintains ultimate ownership of and accountability for management of top risks, enabling proper linkage of risk management to strategic initiatives and business decisions.
GCRC Validation of risk identification, prioritization, strategic and tactical ownership of risk mitigation plans and reporting.
ERM Framework Routinely gathers risks, evaluates with risk sponsors, prioritizes and reports to the GCRC, Executive Management and Board of Directors, driving deep risk discussions, and supporting risk sponsors and management in facilitating robust enterprise risk management processes, risk-intelligent decision-making and key risk capabilities.
Risk Sponsors and Business Champions Manage risks in normal course of business, executing risk plans/mitigation activities, and monitoring and reporting key risk information.

Corporate Governance

Genmab works diligently to improve its guidelines and policies for corporate governance, taking into account the recent trends in international and domestic requirements and recommendations. Genmab's commitment to corporate governance is based on ethics and integrity and forms the basis of its effort to strengthen the confidence that existing and future shareholders, partners, employees and other stakeholders have in Genmab. The role of shareholders and their interaction with Genmab is important. Genmab believes that open and transparent communication is necessary to maintain the confidence of Genmab's shareholders and achieves this through company announcements, investor meetings and company presentations. Genmab is committed to providing reliable and transparent information about its business, financial results, development programs and scientific results in a clear and timely manner.

All Danish companies listed on the Nasdaq Copenhagen are required to disclose in their annual reports how they address the Recommendations for Corporate Governance issued by the Committee on Corporate Governance in December 2020 (the "Recommendations"), applying the "comply-or-explain" principle.

Genmab follows the Recommendations, except for one specific sub-area where Genmab's corporate governance principles differ from the Recommendations:

  • The Recommendations provide that according to a company's takeover contingency procedures, the board of directors abstains from countering any takeover bids by taking actions that seek to prevent the shareholders from deciding on the takeover bid, without the approval of the general meeting. Genmab does not have such a restriction in its takeover contingency procedures and retains the right in certain circumstances to reject takeover bids without consulting the shareholders. Genmab believes this provides the Board of Directors with the needed flexibility to best respond to takeover bids and to negotiate with bidders; retaining this flexibility helps the Board of Directors meet its objectives in protecting and creating value in the interest of the shareholders. Actions will be determined on a case-by-case basis with due consideration to the interests of the shareholders and other stakeholders.

Genmab publishes its statutory report on Corporate Governance for the financial year 2022 cf. Article 107b of the Danish Financial Statements Act ("Lovpligtig redegørelse for virksomhedsledelse jf. årsregnskabslovens § 107 b") on the Company's website, including a detailed description of the Board of Directors' consideration in respect of all the Recommendations. The statutory report on Corporate Governance can be found on Genmab's website https://ir.genmab.com/corporate-governance#content.

The Board of Directors

The Board of Directors plays an active role within Genmab in setting the strategies and goals for Genmab and monitoring its operations and results. Board duties include establishing policies for strategy, accounting, organization and finance and the appointment of Executive Management members. The Board of Directors also assesses Genmab's capital and share structure and is responsible for approving share issues and the grant of warrants and RSUs.

The Board of Directors has established an annual process whereby the Board of Directors' performance is assessed through self-evaluation to verify that the Board of Directors is capable of fulfilling its function and responsibilities. When performing these evaluations external assistance is obtained every year. The outcome of the Board of Directors' 2022 self-assessment was positive with only minor areas for improvement identified.

Board Committees

To support the Board of Directors in its duties, the Board of Directors has established and appointed a Compensation Committee, an Audit and Finance Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and a Scientific Committee. These committees are charged with reviewing issues pertaining to their respective fields that are due to be considered at Board of Directors' meetings. Written charters specifying the tasks and responsibilities for each of the committees are available on Genmab's website www.genmab.com.

For more details on the work, composition and evaluation of the Board of Directors and its committees, reference is made to the statutory report on Corporate Governance.

Remuneration Policy

A Remuneration Policy applying to the compensation of members of the Board of Directors and the registered Executive Management of Genmab A/S has been prepared in accordance with Sections 139 and 139a of the Danish Companies Act and was most recently considered and adopted by the 2021 Annual General Meeting pursuant to the Danish Companies Act (in Danish "Selskabsloven").

The Remuneration Policy contains an exhaustive description of the remuneration components for members of the Board of Directors and the registered Executive Management and includes

The latest version, which was adopted by the General Meeting in 2021, can be downloaded from Genmab's website https://ir.genmab.com/governance/compensation#content.

Compensation Report

In accordance with the Recommendations, Genmab has prepared a compensation report for the financial year 2022 that includes information on the total remuneration received by each member of the Board of Directors and the registered Executive Management from Genmab A/S and other Group companies for the last three years, including information on the most important content of retention and resignation arrangements and the correlation between the remuneration and company strategy and relevant related goals (the "Compensation Report"). The Compensation Report can be found on Genmab's website https://ir.genmab.com/governance/compensation#content.

Change of Control

The Danish Financial Statements Act (Section 107a) contains rules relating to listed companies with respect to certain disclosures that may be of interest to the stock market and potential takeover bidders, in particular in relation to disclosure of change of control provisions. In the event of a change of control, change of control clauses are included in some of our collaboration, development and license agreements as well as in service agreements for certain employees.

Collaboration, Development and License Agreements

Genmab has entered into collaboration, development and license agreements with external parties, which may be subject to renegotiation in the case of a change of control event as specified in the individual agreements. However, any changes in the agreements are not expected to have significant influence on our financial position.

Service Agreements with Executive Management and Employees

The service agreements with each registered member of the Executive Management may be terminated by Genmab with no less than 12 months' notice and by the registered member of the Executive Management with no less than six months' notice. In the event of a change of control of Genmab, the termination notice due to the registered member of the Executive Management is extended to 24 months. In the event of termination by Genmab (unless for cause) or by a registered member of Executive Management as a result of a change of control of Genmab, Genmab is obliged to pay a registered member of Executive Management a compensation equal to his/her existing total salary (including benefits) for up to two years in addition to the notice period.

In addition, Genmab has entered into service agreements with a limited number of employees according to which Genmab may become obliged to compensate the employees in connection with a change of control of Genmab. If Genmab, as a result of a change of control, terminates the service agreement without cause or changes the working conditions to the detriment of the employee, the employee shall be entitled to terminate the employment relationship without further cause with one month's notice in which case Genmab shall pay the employee a compensation equal to one-half, one or two times the employee's existing annual salary (including benefits).

Change of control clauses related to our warrant and RSU programs are outlined in Note 4.6.

Share capital

Information on share capital is included in Note 4.7. Unless otherwise provided in the Danish Companies Act, the adoption of any resolution to amend Genmab A/S' articles of association shall be subject to the affirmative vote of not less than two thirds of the votes cast, as well as of the voting share capital represented at the general meeting. Genmab A/S' entire articles of association can be found on our website www.genmab.com.

Section 1 Basis of Presentation | 1.1 Nature of the Business and Accounting Policies

Materiality

Genmab's Annual Report is based on the concept of materiality and the Company focuses on information that is considered material and relevant to the users of the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements consist of a large number of transactions. These transactions are aggregated into classes according to their nature or function and presented in classes of similar items in the consolidated financial statements as required by IFRS and the Danish Financial Statements Act. If items are individually immaterial, they are aggregated with other items of similar nature in the financial statements or in the notes.

The disclosure requirements are substantial in IFRS and for Danish listed companies. Genmab provides these specific required disclosures unless the information is considered immaterial to the economic decision-making of the readers of the financial statements or not applicable.

Consolidated Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements include Genmab A/S and subsidiaries over which the parent company has control. The parent controls a subsidiary when the parent is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the subsidiary. Genmab A/S (parent company) holds investments either directly or indirectly in the following subsidiaries:

Name Domicile Ownership and votes 2022 Ownership and votes 2021
Genmab B.V. Utrecht, the Netherlands 100% 100%
Genmab Holding B.V. Utrecht, the Netherlands 100% 100%
Genmab US, Inc. New Jersey, USA 100% 100%
Genmab K.K. Tokyo, Japan 100% 100%

Genmab's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the financial statements of the parent company and subsidiaries—prepared under Genmab's accounting policies—by combining similar accounting items on a line-by-line basis. On consolidation, intercompany income and expenses, intercompany receivables and payables, and unrealized gains and losses on transactions between the consolidated companies are eliminated.

The recorded value of the equity interests in the consolidated subsidiaries is eliminated with the proportionate share of the subsidiaries' equity. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date when control is transferred to the Group.

The income statements for subsidiaries with a different functional currency than Genmab's presentation currency are translated into Genmab's presentation currency at average exchange rates, and the balance sheets are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date.

Exchange rate differences arising from the translation of foreign subsidiaries shareholders' equity at the beginning of the year and exchange rate differences arising as a result of foreign subsidiaries' income statements being translated at average exchange rates are recorded in translation reserves in shareholders' equity.

Functional and Presentation Currency

The financial statements have been prepared in Danish Kroner (DKK), which is the functional and presentation currency of the parent company.

Foreign Currency

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the date of the transaction.

Exchange rate gains and losses arising between the transaction date and the settlement date are recognized in the income statement as financial income or expense.

Unsettled monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Exchange rate gains and losses arising between the transaction date and the balance sheet date are recognized in the income statement as financial income or expense.

Classification of Operating Expenses in the Income Statement

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses primarily include salaries, benefits and other employee-related costs of Genmab's research and development staff, license costs, manufacturing costs, pre-clinical costs, clinical trials, contractors and outside service fees, amortization and impairment of licenses and rights related to intangible assets, depreciation of property and equipment, and depreciation of right-of-use assets, to the extent that such costs are related to the Group's research and development activities.

Refer to Note 3.1 for a more detailed description on the treatment of Genmab's research and development expenses.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses relate to the management and administration of Genmab, including commercialization activities. This primarily includes salaries, benefits and other employee costs related to management and support functions including human resources, information technology and the finance departments. In addition, depreciation of property and equipment and depreciation of right-of-use assets, to the extent such expenses are related to administrative functions, are also included. Selling, general and administrative expenses are recognized in the income statement in the period to which they relate.

Statements of Cash Flows

The cash flow statement is presented using the indirect method with basis in the net profit before tax.

Cash flows from operating activities are stated as the net profit before tax adjusted for net financial items, non-cash operating items such as depreciation, amortization, impairment losses, share-based compensation expenses, provisions, and for changes in operating assets and liabilities, interest paid and received, interest elements of lease payments and corporate taxes paid or received. Operating assets and liabilities are mainly comprised of changes in receivables and other payables excluding the items included in cash and cash equivalents. Changes in non-current assets and liabilities are included in operating assets and liabilities, if related to the main revenue-producing activities of Genmab.

Cash flows from investing activities consist of purchases and sales of marketable securities and other investments, as well as purchases of property and equipment.

Cash flows from financing activities relate to the purchase of treasury shares, exercise of warrants, payments of withholding taxes on behalf of employees on net settled RSUs and payments of long-term loans including installments on lease liabilities.

Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash, bank deposits, and marketable securities with a

maturity of less than ninety days on the date of acquisition.

The statements of cash flows cannot be derived solely from the financial statements.

Treasury Shares

The total amount paid to acquire treasury shares including directly attributable costs and the proceeds from the sale of treasury shares is recognized in retained earnings.

Research Collaborations, License Agreements and Collaborative Agreements

Research Collaborations and License Agreements

Genmab continues to pursue the establishment of research collaborations and licensing agreements. These arrangements often include upfront payments, expense reimbursements or payments to the collaboration partner, and milestone and royalty arrangements, contingent upon the occurrence of certain future events linked to the success of the asset in development.

In regard to Genmab's license agreements with Janssen, Novartis and Roche, each of these parties retain final decision-making authority over the relevant activities and as such no joint control exists.

Refer to Note 2.1 for additional information related to revenue from these parties.

Joint Collaborative Agreements

Genmab has entered into a number of joint collaborative agreements. These agreements often include upfront payments, expense reimbursements or payments to the collaboration partner, and milestone and royalty arrangements, contingent upon the occurrence of certain future events linked to the success of the asset in development.

These agreements also provide Genmab with varying rights to develop, produce and market products together with its collaborative partners. Both parties in these arrangements share in the decision making and therefore have joint control of the arrangement. In 2022, Genmab's more significant collaboration agreements are with AbbVie (Epcoritamab), Seagen (Tisotumab vedotin) and BioNTech.

Refer to Note 2.1 for additional information related to revenue from our joint collaborative agreements.

New Accounting Policies and Disclosures

New Accounting Policies and Disclosures for 2022

Genmab has, with effect from January 1, 2022, implemented the following standards and amendments:

  • Amendments to IFRS 3 Business Combinations;
  • Amendments to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment;
  • Amendments to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets; and
  • Annual Improvements 2018–2020

All of the above amendments were issued on May 14, 2020. The implementation of these amendments did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements for the current or prior reporting periods and is not expected to have a significant impact in future reporting periods.

New Accounting Policies and Disclosures Effective in 2023 or Later

The IASB has issued a number of new standards and updated some existing standards, the majority of which are effective for accounting periods beginning on January 1, 2023 or later. Therefore, they are not incorporated in these

consolidated financial statements. There are no standards presently known that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on Genmab in current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.

1.3

Management's Judgements and Estimates under IFRS

In preparing financial statements under IFRS, certain provisions in the standards require management's judgements, including various accounting estimates and assumptions. These judgements and estimates affect the application of accounting policies, as well as reported amounts within the consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Determining the carrying amount of certain assets and liabilities requires judgements, estimates and assumptions concerning future events that are based on historical experience and other factors, which by their very nature are associated with uncertainty and unpredictability.

Accounting estimates are based on historical experience and various other factors relative to the circumstances in which they are applied. Estimates are generally made based on information available at the time.

Accounting judgements are made in the process of applying accounting policies. These judgements are typically made based on the guidance and information available at the time of application.

These estimates and judgements may prove incomplete or incorrect, and unexpected events or circumstances may arise. Genmab is also subject to risks and uncertainties which may lead actual results to differ from these estimates, both positively and negatively. Specific risks for

Genmab are discussed in the relevant section of this Annual Report and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

The areas involving a high degree of judgement and estimation that are significant to the consolidated financial statements are summarized below. Refer to the identified notes for further information on the key accounting estimates and judgements utilized in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

8 Accounting Policies

Genmab recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that Genmab determines are within the scope of IFRS 15, Genmab performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. Genmab only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of IFRS 15, Genmab assesses the goods and services promised within each contract and identifies as a performance obligation each good or service that is distinct. Revenue is recognized in the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.

Royalties: Certain of Genmab's license and collaboration agreements include sales-based royalties based on the level of sales. The license has been deemed to be the predominant item to which the royalties relate under Genmab's

Genmab | 2022 Annual Report | Financial Statements | Group


Section 2 Results for the Year | 2.1 Revenue

Table of Contents

Management's Review

Financial Statements

Other Information

license and collaboration agreements. As a result, Genmab recognizes revenue when the related sales occur.

Reimbursement Revenue for R&D Services:

Genmab's research collaboration agreements include the provisions for reimbursement or cost sharing for research and development services and payment for FTEs at contractual rates. R&D services are performed and satisfied over time given that the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by Genmab and revenue for research services is recognized over time rather than at a point in time.

Milestone Revenue:

Certain of Genmab's license and collaboration agreements include development, regulatory and commercial milestone payments based on the level of sales. At the inception of each arrangement that includes milestone payments, Genmab evaluates whether the achievement of milestones is considered highly probable and estimates the amount to be included in the transaction price using the most likely amount method. If it is highly probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur, the associated milestone value is included in the transaction price. Milestone payments that are not within the control of Genmab or the license and collaboration partner, such as regulatory

approvals, are not considered probable of being achieved until those approvals are received. The transaction price is then allocated to each performance obligation on a relative stand-alone selling price basis, for which Genmab recognizes revenue as or when the performance obligations under the contract are satisfied. At the end of each subsequent reporting period, Genmab re-evaluates the probability of achievement of such development milestones and any related constraint, and if necessary, adjusts its estimate of the overall transaction price. Any such adjustments are recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis, which would affect revenue and earnings in the period of adjustment. Under all of Genmab's existing license and collaboration agreements, milestone payments have been allocated to the license transfer performance obligation.

License Revenue for Intellectual Property:

If the license to Genmab's functional intellectual property is determined to be distinct from the other performance obligations identified in the arrangement, Genmab recognizes revenues from non-refundable upfront fees allocated to the license at the point in time the license is transferred to the licensee and the licensee is able to use and benefit from the license. For licenses that are bundled with other promises, Genmab utilizes judgement to assess the nature of the combined

performance obligation to determine whether the combined performance obligation is satisfied over time or at a point in time and, if over time, the appropriate method of measuring progress for purposes of recognizing revenue from non-refundable, upfront fees. Under all of Genmab's existing license and collaboration agreements the license to functional intellectual property has been determined to be distinct from other performance obligations identified in the agreement.

Collaboration Revenue:

Collaboration revenue includes net profit sharing arrangements for the sale of commercial products. When Genmab is determined to be the principal in sales to end customers, all product sales are included in net product sales in the income statement. As of December 31, 2022, Genmab has not recorded any net product sales. When Genmab's collaboration partner is determined to be the principal in sales to end customers, Genmab's share of net profits for the sale of commercial products is included in collaboration revenue.

Refer to Note 5.6 for detailed information regarding Genmab's significant Research Collaborations, License Agreements and Collaborative Agreements.

3. Management's Judgements and Estimates — Revenue Recognition

Evaluating the criteria for revenue recognition under license and collaboration agreements requires management's judgement to assess and determine the following:

  • An estimation of partner net sales amounts in determination of the calculation of royalties.
  • An assessment of whether the achievement of milestone payments is highly probable.
  • An estimation of variable consideration identified in the contract using key assumptions which may include forecasted revenues, development timelines, reimbursement rates for personnel costs, discount rates and probabilities of technical and regulatory success.
  • The nature of performance obligations and whether they are distinct or should be combined with other performance obligations to determine whether the performance obligations are satisfied over time or at a point in time.

Information about Geographical Areas

Genmab is managed and operated as one business unit, which is reflected in the organizational structure and internal reporting. No separate lines of business or separate business entities have been identified with respect to any licensed products, marketed products, product candidates or geographical markets and no segment information is currently prepared for internal reporting.

Accordingly, it has been concluded that it is not relevant to include segment disclosures in the financial statements as Genmab's business activities are not organized on the basis of differences in related product and geographical areas.

Costs relating to defined contribution plans are included in the income statement in the period in which they are accrued, and outstanding contributions are included in other payables.

Termination benefits are recognized as an expense, when Genmab is committed demonstrably, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan to terminate employment.

Government Grants

The Dutch Research and Development Act "WBSO" provides compensation for a part of research and development wages and other costs through a reduction in payroll taxes. WBSO grant amounts are offset against wages and salaries and included in research and development expenses in the income statement.

The corporate tax expense was DKK 1,513 million in 2022, DKK 975 million in 2021 and DKK 1,146 million in 2020. Tax expenses of DKK 22 million, DKK 31 million, and DKK 44 million related to excess tax benefits for share-based compensation were recorded directly in shareholders' equity, in 2022, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

Taxation — Balance Sheet

Significant components of the deferred tax asset are as follows:

(DKK million) 2022 2021
Share-based instruments 128 136
Deferred revenue 113 113
Other temporary differences 11 15
Total Deferred Taxes 252 264

Genmab recognizes deferred tax assets if it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be available in the future, against which the temporary differences and unused tax losses can be utilized. Management has considered future taxable income and applied its judgement in assessing whether deferred tax assets should be recognized.

As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, Genmab had gross tax loss carryforwards of DKK 3.2 billion and DKK 2.7 billion, respectively, to reduce future taxable income in the U.S. and the Netherlands. The loss carryforwards generally expire in various periods through 2037; however, U.S. tax losses originating after 2017 and tax losses in the Netherlands available as of December 31, 2022, can be carried forward indefinitely.

5 Accounting Policies

Corporate Tax

Corporate tax, which consists of current tax and deferred taxes for the year, is recognized in the income statement, except to the extent that the

Genmab | 2022 Annual Report | Financial Statements | Group

Table of Contents

Management's Review

Financial Statements

Other Information

tax is attributable to items which directly relate to shareholders' equity or other comprehensive income.

Current tax assets and liabilities for current and prior periods are measured at the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred Tax

Deferred tax accounting requires recognition of deferred tax on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and the tax base of such assets and liabilities. This includes the tax value of certain tax losses carried forward.

Deferred tax is calculated in accordance with the tax regulations in the local countries and the tax rates expected to be in force at the time the deferred tax is utilized. Changes in deferred tax as a result of changes in tax rates are recognized in the income statement.

Deferred tax assets resulting from temporary differences, including the tax value of losses to be carried forward, are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the differences can be utilized.

2.5 Management's Judgements and Estimates

Deferred Tax

Genmab recognizes deferred tax assets if management assesses that these tax assets can be offset against positive taxable income within a foreseeable future. This judgement is made on an ongoing basis and is based on numerous factors, including actual results, budgets and business plans for the coming years.

Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon a number of factors, including future taxable earnings, the timing and amount of which are highly uncertain. A significant portion of Genmab's future taxable income will be driven by future events that are highly susceptible to factors outside the control of Genmab including commercial growth of DARZALEX, specific clinical outcomes, regulatory approvals, advancement of Genmab's product pipeline and other matters. Genmab continues to maintain nonrecognition of a significant portion of deferred tax assets related to its subsidiaries until there is sufficient evidence to support the recognition of deferred tax assets. Genmab may recognize deferred tax assets related to its subsidiaries in the future. The recognition of deferred tax assets will result in a decrease to income tax expense in such period.

3. Accounting Policies

Basic Net Profit per Share

Basic net profit per share is calculated as the net profit for the period divided by the weighted average number of outstanding ordinary shares, excluding treasury shares.

Diluted Net Profit per Share

Diluted net profit per share is calculated as the net profit for the period divided by the weighted average number of outstanding ordinary shares, excluding treasury shares and adjusted for the dilutive effect of share equivalents.

Accounting Policies

Research and Development Projects

Internal and subcontracted research costs are charged in full to the income statement in the period in which they are incurred. Consistent with industry practice, development costs are also expensed until regulatory approval is obtained or is probable. Genmab has no internally generated intangible assets from development, as the criteria for recognition of an intangible asset are not met.

Licenses and Rights

Genmab acquires licenses and rights primarily to gain access to targets and technologies identified by third parties. Payments to third parties under collaboration and license agreements are assessed to determine whether such payments should be expensed as incurred as research and development expenses or capitalized as an intangible asset.

Licenses and rights that meet the criteria for capitalization as intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment losses. Milestone payments related to capitalized licenses and rights are accounted for as an increase in the cost to acquire licenses and rights.

Amortization

Amortization is based on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life. This corresponds to the legal duration or the economic useful life depending on which is shorter. The amortization

of intellectual property rights commences after regulatory approval has been obtained or when assets are put in use.

3.2 Management's Judgements and Estimates

Impairment

If circumstances or changes in Genmab's operations indicate that the carrying amount of intangible assets may not be recoverable, management reviews the asset for impairment. The basis for the review is the recoverable amount of the intangible assets, determined as the greater of the fair value less cost to sell or its value in use. Value in use is calculated as the net present value of future cash inflow generated from the intangible asset. If the carrying amount of an intangible asset is greater than the recoverable amount, the intangible asset is written down to the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized in the income statement when the impairment is identified. Impairments on intangible assets are reviewed at each reporting date for possible reversal.

Amortization, impairment losses, and gains or losses on the disposal of intangible assets related to licenses and rights are recognized in the income statement as research and development expenses.

Capital expenditures in 2022 and 2021 were primarily related to the expansion of our facilities in the Netherlands and the U.S. to support the growth in our product pipeline.

Accounting Policies

Property and equipment is comprised of leasehold improvements, assets under construction, and equipment, furniture and fixtures, which are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses.

The cost is comprised of the acquisition price and direct costs related to the acquisition until the asset is ready for use. Costs include direct costs and costs to subcontractors.

Section 3 Operating Assets and Liabilities | 3.3 Leases

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis to allocate the cost of the assets, net of any residual value, over the estimated useful lives, which are as follows:

Equipment, furniture and fixtures 3–5 years
Computer equipment 3 years
Leasehold improvements 15 years or the lease term, if shorter

Depreciation commences when the asset is available for use, including when it is in the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. The useful lives and residual values are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate on a yearly basis. Assets under construction are not depreciated.

Impairment

If circumstances or changes in Genmab's operations indicate that the carrying amount of property and equipment may not be recoverable, management reviews the asset for impairment.

The basis for the review is the recoverable amount of the asset, determined as the greater of the fair value less cost to sell or its value in use. Value in use is calculated as the net present value of future cash inflow generated from the asset.

If the carrying amount of an asset is greater than the recoverable amount, the asset is written down to the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized in the income statement when the impairment is identified.

3.3

Leases

Genmab has entered into lease agreements with respect to office and laboratory space, and IT equipment. The expense, lease liability, and right-of-use assets balances related to IT equipment are immaterial. The leases are non-cancellable over various periods through 2038.

Total 663 487 394

Future minimum payments under our leases with commencement dates after December 31, 2022 are not included in the table above.

Significant Leases Not Yet Commenced

During 2020, Genmab entered into a lease agreement with respect to the new headquarters in Denmark with a commencement date in March 2023 and is non-cancellable until March 2038. The total future minimum payments over the term of the lease are approximately DKK 339 million and estimated capital expenditures to fit out the space are approximately DKK 128 million.

Accounting Policies

All leases are recognized in the balance sheet as a right-of-use ("ROU") asset with a corresponding lease liability, except for short-term leases in which the term is 12 months or less, or low-value leases.

Section 3 Operating Assets and Liabilities | 3.4 Other Investments

ROU assets represent Genmab's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent Genmab's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The ROU asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life or the lease term on a straight-line basis. In the income statement, lease costs are replaced by depreciation of the ROU asset recognized over the lease term in operating expenses, and interest expenses related to the lease liability are classified in financial items.

Genmab determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Genmab leases various properties and IT equipment. Rental contracts are typically made for fixed periods. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of terms and conditions.

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of fixed payments, less any lease incentives. As Genmab's leases generally do not provide an implicit interest rate, Genmab uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date of the lease in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease terms utilized by Genmab may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that Genmab will exercise that option. In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option. Extension options (or periods after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended.

ROU assets are measured at cost and include the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs, and restoration costs.

Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straight-line basis as an expense in the income statement.

Other investments include investments in publicly traded common stock of companies, including common stock of companies with whom Genmab has entered into collaboration arrangements, as well as investments in certain strategic investment funds. The decrease in other investments was primarily driven by the decrease in fair value of Genmab's investment in common shares of CureVac N.V. ("CureVac").

4 Accounting Policies

Other investments are measured on initial recognition at fair value, and subsequently at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized in the income statement within financial income or expense.

Total at December 31 5,958 3,394

During 2022 and 2021, there were no losses related to receivables and the credit risk on receivables is considered to be limited. The provision for expected credit losses was not significant given that there have been no credit losses over the last three years and the high-quality nature (top tier life science companies) of Genmab's customers are not likely to result in future default risk.

The receivables are mainly comprised of royalties, milestones and amounts due under collaboration agreements and are non-interest bearing receivables which are due less than one year from the balance sheet date.

Refer to Note 4.2 for additional information about interest receivables and related credit risk.

5 Accounting Policies

Receivables are designated as financial assets measured at amortized cost and are initially measured at fair value or transaction price and subsequently measured in the balance sheet at amortized cost, which generally corresponds to nominal value less expected credit losses.

Genmab utilizes a simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses and uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all receivables. To measure the expected credit losses, receivables have been grouped based on credit risk characteristics and the days past due.

Prepayments include expenditures related to a future financial period. Prepayments are measured at nominal value.

Deferred Revenue

Genmab has recognized the following liabilities related to the AbbVie collaboration agreement.

Deferred revenue at January 1 513 513
Payment received
Revenue recognized during the year
Total at December 31 513 513
Non-current deferred revenue 480 487
Current deferred revenue 33 26
Total at December 31 513 513

Deferred revenue was recognized in connection with the AbbVie collaboration agreement. An upfront payment of USD 750 million (DKK 4,911 million) was received in July 2020 of which DKK 4,398 million was recognized as license revenue during 2020.

The revenue deferred at the initiation of the AbbVie agreement in June 2020 related to four product concepts to be identified and controlled under a research agreement to be negotiated between Genmab and AbbVie. One of the product concepts will comprise of or contain Genmab antibodies conjugated with AbbVie's payload linker technology and the other three product concepts will comprise of or contain CD3 DuoBody bispecific antibodies and AbbVie proprietary antibodies.

During the first quarter of 2022, Genmab and AbbVie entered into the aforementioned research agreement that governs the research and development activities in regard to the product concepts.

As of December 31, 2022, two of the four product concepts have been selected for research and development. As part of the continued evaluation of deferred revenue related to the AbbVie collaboration agreement, Genmab's classification of deferred revenue reflects the current estimate of co-development activities related to these product concepts as of December 31, 2022. None of the deferred revenue was recognized as reimbursement revenue in 2022, 2021 or 2020.

Refer to Note 2.1 for additional information related to the AbbVie collaboration.

Total at December 31 1,727 1,493

Accounting Policies

Other payables, excluding provisions, are initially measured at fair value and subsequently measured in the balance sheet at amortized cost.

The current other payables are comprised of liabilities that are due less than one year from the balance sheet date and are in general not interest bearing and settled on an ongoing basis during the next financial year.

Non-current payables are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the liability due to passage of time is recognized as interest expense.

Accounts Payable

Accounts payable are measured in the balance sheet at amortized cost.

Other Liabilities

Other liabilities primarily include accrued expenses related to our research and development project costs.

Refer to Note 2.3 for accounting policies related to staff costs.

Section 4

Capital Structure, Financial Risk and Related Items

This section includes disclosures related to how Genmab manages its capital structure, cash position and related risks and items. Genmab is primarily financed through partnership collaborations.

4.1 Capital Management

Genmab's goal is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence, and a continuous advancement of Genmab's product pipeline and business in general.

Genmab is primarily financed through revenues under various collaboration agreements and had, as of December 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents of DKK 9,893 million and marketable securities of DKK 12,431 million compared to DKK 8,957 million and DKK 10,381 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2021. Genmab's cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities support the advancement of our product pipeline and operations.

The adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, including the level of DARZALEX and other royalty streams, progress in our research and development programs, the magnitude of those programs, our commitments to existing and new clinical collaborators, our ability to establish commercial and licensing arrangements, our capital expenditures, market developments, and any future acquisitions. Accordingly, Genmab may require additional funds and may attempt to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings, collaborative agreements with partners, or from other sources.

The Board of Directors monitors the share and capital structure to ensure that Genmab's capital resources support its strategic goals.

Neither Genmab A/S nor any of its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

4.2 Financial Risk

The financial risks of the Genmab Group are managed centrally.

The overall risk management guidelines have been approved by the Board of Directors and include the Group's investment policy related to our marketable securities. The Group's risk management guidelines are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Genmab Group, to set the appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor the risks and adherence to limits. It is Genmab's policy not to actively speculate in financial risks. The Group's financial risk management is directed solely towards monitoring and reducing financial risks which are directly related to Genmab's operations.

The primary objective of Genmab's investment activities is to preserve capital and ensure liquidity with a secondary objective of maximizing the return derived from security investments without significantly increasing risk. Therefore, our investment policy includes among other items, guidelines and ranges for which investments (which are primarily shorter-term in nature) are considered to be eligible investments for Genmab and which investment parameters are

to be applied, including maturity limitations and credit ratings. In addition, the policy includes specific diversification criteria and investment limits to minimize the risk of loss resulting from over concentration of assets in a specific class, issuer, currency, country, or economic sector.

Genmab's marketable securities are administrated by external investment managers. The investment guidelines and managers are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions, Genmab's activities and financial position. At the beginning of 2021, Genmab's investment policy was amended to allow investments in debt rated BBB- or greater by S&P or Fitch and in debt rated Baa3 or greater by Moody's. The amended policy also includes additional allowable investment types such as corporate debt, commercial paper, certificates of deposit, and certain types of AAA rated asset-backed securities.

In addition to the capital management and financing risk mentioned in Note 4.1, Genmab has identified the following key financial risk areas, which are mainly related to our marketable securities portfolio:

  • credit risk;
  • foreign currency risk; and
  • interest rate risk

All of Genmab's marketable securities are traded in established markets. Given the current market conditions, all future cash inflows including re-investments of proceeds from the disposal of

Genmab | 2022 Annual Report | Financial Statements | Group

Management's Review
Financial Statements
Other Information

Section 4 Capital Structure, Financial Risk and Related Items | 4.2 Financial Risk

marketable securities are invested in highly liquid, investment grade securities. Refer to Note 4.4 for additional information regarding marketable securities.

Credit Risk

Genmab is exposed to credit risk and losses on marketable securities and bank deposits. The maximum credit exposure related to Genmab's cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities was DKK 22,324 million as of December 31, 2022 compared to DKK 19,338 million as of December 31, 2021. The maximum credit exposure to Genmab's receivables was DKK 5,958 million as of December 31, 2022 compared to DKK 3,394 million as of December 31, 2021.

Marketable Securities

To manage and reduce credit risks on our securities, Genmab's policy is to ensure only securities from investment grade issuers are eligible for our portfolios. No issuer of marketable securities can be accepted if the issuer, at the time of purchase, does not have the credit quality equal to or better than the rating shown in the table below from at least one of the rating agencies. If an issuer is rated by more than one of the rating agencies listed below, the credit assessment is made against the lowest rating available for the issuer.

Category S&P Moody's Fitch
Short-term A-2 P-2 F-2
Long-term BBB- Baa3 BBB-

Genmab's current portfolio is spread over a number of different securities with a focus on liquidity and security. As of December 31, 2022, 75% of Genmab's marketable securities were long-term A rated or higher, or short-term A-1/P-1 rated by S&P, Moody's or Fitch compared to 68% as of December 31, 2021. The total value of marketable securities amounted to DKK 12,431 million at the end of 2022 compared to DKK 10,381 million at the end of 2021.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

To reduce the credit risk on our bank deposits, Genmab's policy is only to invest its cash deposits with highly rated financial institutions. Currently, these financial institutions have a short-term Fitch and S&P rating of at least F-1 and A-1, respectively. In addition, Genmab maintains bank deposits at a level necessary to support the short-term funding requirements of Genmab. The total value of bank deposits including AAA rated money market funds and short-term marketable securities classified as cash equivalents amounted to DKK 9,893 million as of December 31, 2022 compared to DKK 8,957 million at the end of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by Genmab's increased profitability and foreign exchange movements which positively impacted our USD denominated cash and cash equivalents.

Receivables

The credit risk related to our receivables is not significant based on the high-quality nature of Genmab's collaboration partners. As disclosed in Note 2.1, Janssen, Roche, AbbVie and BioNTech are Genmab's primary partners in which receivables are established for royalties, milestone revenue and reimbursement revenue.

Foreign Currency Risk

Genmab's presentation currency is the DKK; however, Genmab's revenues and expenses are in a number of different currencies. Consequently, there is a substantial risk of exchange rate fluctuations having an impact on Genmab's cash flows, profit (loss) and/or financial position in DKK.

The majority of Genmab's revenue is generated in USD. Exchange rate changes to the USD will result in changes to the translated value of future net profit before tax and cash flows. Genmab's revenue in USD was 89% of total revenue in 2022 as compared to 92% in 2021 and 95% in 2020.

Under our license agreement with Janssen for DARZALEX, for purposes of calculating royalties due to Genmab, DARZALEX net sales for non-U.S. dollar denominated currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at a specified annual Currency Hedge Rate. Movements in foreign exchanges against the annual Currency Hedge Rate will result in changes to royalties due to Genmab impacting net profit before tax and cash flows.

There is also exposure that exchange rate fluctuations may impact equity as part of the currency translation adjustments required to convert the investments in foreign subsidiaries from their respective functional currencies to the presentation currency during consolidation, however any such fluctuations would be immaterial. The foreign subsidiaries are not significantly affected by currency risks as both revenues and expenses are primarily settled in the foreign subsidiaries' functional currencies.

Assets and Liabilities in Foreign Currency

Genmab's marketable securities denominated in USD, DKK, EUR and GBP as a percentage of total marketable securities were as follows:

Percent December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021
USD 80% 75%
DKK 12% 16%
EUR 7% 8%
GBP 1% 1%
Total 100% 100%

Genmab's USD currency exposure is mainly related to cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and receivables related to our collaborations with Janssen, AbbVie, Roche and Seagen. Significant changes in the exchange rate of USD to DKK could cause net profit before tax to change materially as gains and losses are recognized in the income statement. Based on the amount of assets and liabilities denominated in USD as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, a 10% increase/decrease in the USD to DKK exchange rate is estimated to impact Genmab's net profit before tax by approximately DKK 2.2 billion and DKK 1.5 billion, respectively. The analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant. The movements in the income statement and equity arise from monetary items (cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, receivables and liabilities) where the

Genmab | 2022 Annual Report | Financial Statements | Group


Table of Contents
Management's Review
Financial Statements
Other Information

Section 4 Capital Structure, Financial Risk and Related Items | 4.3 Financial Assets and Liabilities

functional currency of the entity differs from the currency that the monetary items are denominated in.

Genmab's EUR exposure is mainly related to our marketable securities, receivables under our collaboration with BioNTech, and other costs denominated in EUR. Since the introduction of the EUR in 1999, Denmark has committed to maintaining a central rate of 7.46 DKK to the EUR. This rate may fluctuate within a +/- 2.25% band. Should Denmark's policy toward the EUR change, the DKK values of our EUR denominated assets and costs could be materially different compared to what is calculated and reported under the existing Danish policy toward the DKK/EUR. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, Genmab's EUR exposure is not material.

Genmab's GBP currency exposure is mainly related to contracts and marketable securities denominated in GBP. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, Genmab's GBP exposure is not material.

Interest Rate Risk

Genmab's exposure to interest rate risk is primarily related to marketable securities, as Genmab currently does not have significant interest-bearing debts.

Marketable Securities

The securities in which the Group has invested bear interest rate risk, as a change in market-derived interest rates may cause fluctuations in the fair value of the investments. In accordance

with the objective of the investment activities, the portfolio of securities is monitored on a total return basis.

To control and minimize the interest rate risk, Genmab maintains an investment portfolio in a variety of securities with a relatively short effective duration with both fixed and variable interest rates.

A sensitivity analysis was performed on Genmab's marketable securities, and based on exposures in 2021 and 2022, a hypothetical +/- 1% interest rate change would not have resulted in a material change in the fair values of these financial instruments. Due to the short-term nature of the current investments and to the extent that Genmab is able to hold the investments to maturity, the current exposure to changes in fair value due to interest rate changes is considered to be insignificant compared to the fair value of the portfolio.

Marketable Securities

Substantially all fair market values are determined by reference to external sources using unadjusted quoted prices in established markets for our marketable securities (Level 1).

Other Investments

The fair value of Genmab's investment in CureVac is determined using unadjusted quoted prices in established markets (Level 1).

There were no transfers into or out of Level 3 during 2021 or 2022. Acquisitions (capital calls) on Level 3 investments in 2021 and 2022 were as follows:

5 Accounting Policies

Classification of Categories of Financial Assets and Liabilities

Genmab classifies its financial assets held into the following measurement categories:

  • those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through profit or loss), and
  • those to be measured at amortized cost.

The classification depends on the business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.

For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or other comprehensive income.

Genmab reclassifies debt investments only when its business model for managing those assets changes.

Further details about the accounting policy for each of the categories are outlined in the respective notes.

Fair Value Measurement

Genmab measures financial instruments, such as marketable securities, at fair value at each balance sheet date. Management assessed that the fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost such as bank deposits, receivables and other payables approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:

  • In the principal market for the asset or liability, or
  • In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.

The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by Genmab.

The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.

Genmab uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

For financial instruments that are measured in the balance sheet at fair value, IFRS 13 requires disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy:

  • Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
  • Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices)
  • Level 3 — Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).

For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements on a recurring basis, Genmab determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. Any transfers between the different levels are carried out at the end of the reporting period.

5 Accounting Policies

Marketable securities consist of investments in securities with a maturity of ninety days or greater at the time of acquisition. Measurement of marketable securities depends on the business model for managing the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are two measurement categories into which Genmab classifies its debt instruments:

  • Amortized cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows, where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at amortized cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate method. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition is recognized directly in profit or loss and presented in other gains/(losses), together with foreign exchange gains and losses. Impairment losses are presented as a separate line item in the statement of profit or loss.
  • Fair value through profit and loss (FVPL): Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) are measured at FVPL. A gain or loss on a debt investment that is subsequently measured at FVPL is recognized in profit or loss and presented net within financial income or expenses in the period in which it arises.

Genmab's portfolio is managed and evaluated on a fair value basis in accordance with its stated investment guidelines and the information provided internally to management. This business model does not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI and as a result marketable securities are measured at FVPL. This classification is consistent with the prior year's classification.

Genmab invests its cash in deposits with major financial institutions, in AAA rated money market funds, Danish mortgage bonds, investment grade rated corporate debt, commercial paper, certificates of deposit, certain types of AAA rated asset backed securities, U.S. Agency bonds, and notes issued by the Danish, European and U.S. governments. The securities can be purchased and sold using established markets.

Transactions are recognized at the trade date.

Interest Income

Interest income was DKK 324 million in 2022 compared to DKK 197 million in 2021. The increase of DKK 127 million, or 64%, was driven by higher effective interest rates in the U.S., Europe and Denmark for the respective periods.

Foreign Exchange Rate Gains and Losses

Foreign exchange rate gains of DKK 1,034 million in 2022 and DKK 1,470 million in 2021, and losses of DKK 1,456 million in 2020 were primarily driven by foreign exchange movements impacting Genmab's USD denominated marketable securities and cash and cash equivalents; in particular, the USD/DKK foreign exchange rates were as follows for each period:

December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020
USD/DKK Foreign Exchange Rates 6.9722 6.5612 6.0524
% Increase/(Decrease) 6% 8% (9)%

Refer to Note 4.2 for additional information on foreign currency risk.

Marketable Securities Gains and Losses

Loss on marketable securities, net was DKK 361 million in 2022 and DKK 246 million in 2021. The increase in losses of DKK 115 million, or 47%, was primarily driven by higher interest rates on Genmab's Danish mortgage investments in 2022 as compared to 2021. Loss on marketable securities, net was DKK 246 million in 2021 and DKK 92 million in 2020. The increase in losses of DKK 154 million was primarily driven by the movements in interest rates in the U.S. and Europe in the respective periods.

Other Investments

Loss on other investments, net was DKK 298 million in 2022 and DKK 443 million in 2021, and gain on other investments, net was DKK 965 million in 2020. The losses and gains in the respective periods are primarily driven by the

change in fair value of Genmab's investment in common shares of CureVac.

Accounting Policies

Financial income and expenses include interest as well as foreign exchange rate adjustments and gains and losses on marketable securities (designated as FVPL) and realized gains and losses and write-downs of other securities and equity interests (designated as available-for-sale financial assets).

Interest income is shown separately from gains and losses on marketable securities and other securities and equity interests.

Restricted Stock Unit Program

Genmab A/S has established an RSU program (equity-settled share-based payment transactions) as an incentive for Genmab's employees, members of the Executive Management, and members of the Board of Directors. RSUs granted to Executive Management are performance-based.

RSUs are granted by the Board of Directors. RSU grants to members of the Board of Directors and members of the Executive Management are subject to the Remuneration Policy adopted at the Annual General Meeting.

See the table below for a summary of key terms of Genmab's RSU programs:

RSUs Granted in Periods
Key Terms December 2019–February 2021 From February 2021
Grants Granted at closing share price on the grant date.
Vesting (Settlement) Cliff vesting—RSUs become fully vested on the first banking day of the month following a period of 3 years from the grant date.
After RSUs vest, the holder receives one share in Genmab A/S for each RSU granted. In jurisdictions in which Genmab as an employer is required to withhold tax and settle with the tax authority on behalf of the employee, Genmab withholds the number of RSUs that are equal to the monetary value of the employee's tax obligation from the total number of RSUs that otherwise would have been issued to the employee upon vesting (“net settlement”). Genmab A/S may at its sole discretion in extraordinary circumstances choose to make a cash settlement instead of delivering shares.
Leaver Leavers—Forfeit all unvested RSUs except when due to retirement, death, serious sickness or serious injury, in which case granted but not yet vested RSUs shall remain outstanding and will be settled in accordance with their terms.
Notwithstanding the above, the December 2020 RSU grant to members of the Board of Directors was made subject to pro-rata vesting upon termination of board services.
Employees and Executive Management—RSUs remain outstanding and vest accordingly when the employment relationship is terminated by Genmab without cause. Good-Leavers¹—May maintain a pro-rata portion of unvested RSUs
Bad-Leavers²—Forfeit all unvested RSUs.
Death—Forfeit all unvested RSUs.
  1. "Good-Leaver"—Dismissal without cause or termination of employment due to the Genmab's material breach of the RSU or Warrant holder's employment terms, or if the participant is a member of the Board of Directors, if the membership of the Board of Directors ceases for any other reason than as a result of the participants death.
  2. "Bad-leaver"—Dismissed for cause or during the employment probationary period.

The RSU program contains anti-dilution provisions if changes occur in Genmab's share capital prior to the vesting date and provisions to accelerate vesting of RSUs in the event of change of control as defined in the RSU program.

Share-Based Compensation Expenses

Share-based compensation expense is recognized in the income statement based on the estimated fair value of the awards at grant date. Subsequently, the fair value is not remeasured. The expense recognized reflects an estimate of the number of awards expected to vest after taking into consideration an estimate of award forfeitures based on historical experience and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period. Genmab reassesses its estimate of the number of shares expected to vest periodically.

Management expectations related to the achievement of performance goals associated with performance based RSU grants is assessed periodically, and that assessment is used to determine whether such grants are expected to vest or if any revision to the current estimate is required. Genmab recognizes the impact of the revised estimate of the number of awards expected to vest, if any, as an adjustment to the income statement over the remaining vesting period. If performance-based milestones related to performance-based RSU grants are not met or not expected to be met, any share-based compensation expense recognized to date associated with grants that are not expected to vest will be reversed.

Share-based compensation expenses represent calculated values of warrants, RSUs and performance-based RSUs granted and do not represent actual cash expenditures. A corresponding amount is recognized in shareholders' equity as the warrant, RSU and performance-based RSU programs are designated as equity-settled share-based payment transactions.

4 Management's Judgements and Estimates

Share-Based Compensation Expenses

The fair value of each warrant granted during the year is calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. This pricing model requires the input of subjective assumptions such as:

  • The expected stock price volatility, which is based upon the historical volatility of Genmab's stock price;
  • The risk-free interest rate, which is determined as the interest rate on Danish government bonds (bullet issues) with a maturity of five years;
  • The expected life of warrants, which is based on vesting terms, expected rate of exercise and life terms in the current warrant program.

These assumptions can vary over time and can change the fair value of future warrants granted.

Valuation Assumptions for Warrants Granted in 2022, 2021 and 2020

The fair value of each warrant granted during the year is calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions:

2022 2021 2020

Judith Klimovsky, Executive Vice President and Chief Development Officer, Anthony Mancini, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, and Tahamtan Ahmadi, Executive Vice President and Chief Medical Officer, will cease to be registered as executive managers with the Danish Business Authority; however, apart from the formal registration amendments there will be no changes to the Executive Management Team, including titles, areas of responsibility or otherwise.

Refer to the section "Senior Leadership" in Management's Review for additional information regarding the Executive Management.

Severance Payments:

In the event Genmab terminates the service agreements with any member of the Executive Management team without cause, Genmab is obliged to pay his/her existing salary for one or two years after the end of the one-year notice period. However, in the event of termination by Genmab (unless for cause) or by any member of Executive Management as a result of a change of control of Genmab, Genmab is obliged to pay compensation equal to his/her existing total salary (including benefits) for up to two years in addition to the notice period. In 2021, the

Remuneration Policy was amended at the Annual General Meeting to specify that the total value of the remuneration relating to the notice period for new members of Executive Management cannot exceed two years of remuneration, including all components of the remuneration. In case of the termination of the service agreements of the Executive Management without cause, the total impact on our financial position is estimated to be approximately DKK 82 million as of December 31, 2022 (2021: DKK 72 million, 2020: DKK 52 million).

Related Party Disclosures

Genmab's related parties are the parent company's subsidiaries, Board of Directors, Executive Management, and close members of the family of these persons.

Genmab has not granted any loans, guarantees or other commitments to or on behalf of any of the members of the Board of Directors or Executive Management.

Other than the remuneration and other transactions relating to the Board of Directors and Executive Management described in Note 5.1, there were no material related party transactions during 2022, 2021 and 2020.

Commitments

Purchase Obligations

Genmab has entered into a number of agreements related to research and development activities that contain various obligations. These short-term contractual obligations amounted to approximately DKK 1,687 million as of December 31, 2022, all of which is due in less than two years (2021: approximately DKK 1,340 million).

Genmab also has certain contingent commitments under license and collaboration agreements that may become due in the future. As of December 31, 2022, these contingent commitments amounted to approximately DKK 20,077 million (USD 2,880 million) in potential future development, regulatory and commercial milestone payments to third parties under license and collaboration agreements for our pre-clinical and clinical stage development programs as compared to approximately DKK 19,574 million (USD 2,983 million) as of December 31, 2021. These milestone payments generally become due and payable only upon the achievement of certain development, clinical, regulatory or commercial milestones. The events triggering such payments or obligations have not yet occurred.

In addition to the above obligations, Genmab enters into a variety of agreements and financial commitments in the normal course of business. The terms generally allow Genmab the option to cancel, reschedule and adjust our requirements based on our business needs prior to the delivery of goods or performance of services. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these agreements due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement.

5.6 Collaborations and Technology Licenses

Collaborations

Genmab enters into collaborations with biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies to advance the development and commercialization of Genmab's product candidates and to supplement its internal pipeline. Genmab seeks collaborations that will allow Genmab to retain significant future participation in product sales through either profit-sharing or royalties paid on net sales. Below is an overview of certain of Genmab's collaborations that have had, or are expected in the near term to have, a significant impact on financial results.

Janssen (Daratumumab/DARZALEX)

In 2012, Genmab entered into a global license, development and commercialization agreement with Janssen for daratumumab (marketed for the treatment of certain multiple myeloma indications as DARZALEX for IV administration and as DARZALEX FASPRO in the U.S. and DARZALEX SC in Europe for SC administration). Under this agreement, Janssen is fully responsible for developing and commercializing daratumumab, and all costs associated therewith. Genmab receives tiered royalty payments between 12% and 20% based on Janssen's annual net product sales. The royalties payable by Janssen are limited in time and subject to reduction on a country-by-country basis for customary reduction events, including

upon patent expiration or invalidation in the relevant country and upon the first commercial sale of a biosimilar product in the relevant country (for as long as the biosimilar product remains for sale in that country). Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Janssen's obligation to pay royalties under this agreement will expire on a country-by-country basis on the later of the date that is 13 years after the first commercial sale of daratumumab in such country or upon the expiration of the last-to-expire relevant Genmab-owned patent (as defined in the agreement) covering daratumumab in such country. Genmab is also eligible to receive certain additional payments in connection with development, regulatory and sales milestones.

In September 2020, Genmab commenced binding arbitration of two matters arising under its license agreement with Janssen relating to daratumumab. Under the license agreement, Genmab is, among other things, entitled to royalties from Janssen on net sales of daratumumab (marketed as DARZALEX for IV administration and as DARZALEX FASPRO in the U.S. and as DARZALEX SC in Europe for SC administration). In April 2022, the arbitral tribunal issued an award in the binding arbitration of the two matters. Genmab did not seek a review of the award, and the award is now final.

The first matter concerned the question as to whether Janssen's obligation to pay royalties on sales of licensed product extends, in each applicable country, until the expiration or invalidation of the last-to-expire relevant Genmab-owned patent or the last-to-expire

relevant Janssen-owned patent covering the product, as further defined and described in the license agreement. As to that matter, the tribunal determined by majority opinion that Janssen's obligation to pay royalties to Genmab on sales of licensed product, in each applicable country, extends through the expiration or invalidation of the last-to-expire relevant Genmab-owned patent covering the product or use thereof, but not the relevant Janssen-owned patent. The relevant Genmab-owned issued U.S., European and Japanese patents will expire in the late 2020s and early 2030s.

The second matter concerned the question as to whether Genmab is required to share in Janssen's royalty payments to Halozyme for the Halozyme enzyme technology used in the SC formulation of daratumumab (marketed as DARZALEX FASPRO in the U.S.). The royalties Janssen pays to Halozyme represent a mid-single digit percentage rate of SC daratumumab sales. As to that matter, the tribunal ruled by majority opinion that Janssen is permitted to continue reducing its royalty payments to Genmab as an offset against a share of Janssen's royalty payments made to Halozyme.

On June 9, 2022, Genmab announced the commencement of a second arbitration under the daratumumab license agreement with Janssen. This second arbitration follows from the award in the prior arbitration, where the tribunal ruled in favor of Janssen on the question as to whether Genmab is required to share in Janssen's royalty payments to Halozyme for its technology used in the daratumumab SC product. The tribunal based

its ruling on the finding that DARZALEX FASPRO constitutes a new licensed product under the license agreement.

In this second arbitration, Genmab is consequently seeking an award of USD 405 million plus interest in accrued milestone payments for DARZALEX FASPRO and a declaration that it is entitled to a new 13-year royalty term from the date of DARZALEX FASPRO's first commercial sale. See Company Announcement no. 21/2022.

Novartis (Ofatumumab/Kesimpta)

Genmab and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) entered a co-development and collaboration agreement for ofatumumab in 2006. The full rights to ofatumumab were transferred from GSK to Novartis in 2015. Novartis is now fully responsible for the development and commercialization of ofatumumab in all potential indications, including autoimmune diseases. Genmab is entitled to a 10% royalty payment of net sales for non-cancer treatments. Novartis's obligation to pay royalties under this agreement expires on a country-by-country basis only in the event Novartis is no longer selling such product is a given country. In 2020 SC ofatumumab was approved by the U.S. FDA, as Kesimpta, for the treatment of RMS in adults.

Ofatumumab was also previously approved as Arzerra® for certain CLL indications. In 2019, the marketing authorization for Arzerra was withdrawn in the EU and several other territories. In August 2020, Genmab announced that Novartis planned to transition Arzerra to an oncology

access program for CLL patients in the U.S. In 2020, Genmab recognized USD 30 million lump sum from Novartis as payment for lost potential royalties. Ofatumumab is no longer in development for CLL.

Roche (Teprotumumab/TEPEZZA)

In May 2001, Genmab entered a collaboration with Roche to develop human antibodies to disease targets identified by Roche. In 2002, this alliance was expanded, and Roche made an equity investment in Genmab. Under the agreement, Genmab will receive milestones as well as royalty payments on successful products and, in certain circumstances, Genmab could obtain rights to develop products based on disease targets identified by Roche.

Teprotumumab was created by Genmab under the collaboration with Roche and development and commercialization of the product, approved in 2020 by the U.S. FDA, as TEPEZZA, for the treatment of TED, is now being conducted by Horizon under a license from Roche. Under the terms of Genmab's agreement with Roche, Genmab will receive mid-single digit royalties on sales of TEPEZZA.

Seagen (Tisotumab vedotin/Tivdak)

In September 2010, Genmab and Seagen entered into an ADC collaboration, and a commercial license and collaboration agreement was executed in October 2011. Under the agreement, Genmab was granted rights to utilize Seagen's ADC technology with its human monoclonal TF

antibody. Seagen was granted rights to exercise a co-development and co-commercialization option at the end of Phase 1 clinical development for tisotumab vedotin. In August 2017, Seagen exercised this option. In October 2020, Genmab and Seagen entered into a joint commercialization agreement. Genmab is co-promoting tisotumab vedotin in the U.S. and will lead commercial operational activities and book sales in Japan, while Seagen will lead operational commercial activities in the U.S., Europe and China with a 50:50 cost and profit split in those markets. In any other markets, Seagen will be responsible for commercializing tisotumab vedotin and Genmab will receive royalties based on a percentage of aggregate net sales ranging from the mid-teens to the mid-twenties. The companies will continue the practice of joint decision-making on the worldwide development and commercialization strategy for tisotumab vedotin.

In September 2021, tisotumab vedotin was approved by the U.S. FDA and is marketed under the trade name Tivdak. Seagen records product sales of Tivdak in the U.S. and Genmab shares 50% of the profits for this product.

AbbVie (Epcoritamab)

On June 10, 2020, Genmab entered into a broad oncology collaboration agreement with AbbVie to jointly develop and commercialize epcoritamab, DuoHexaBody-CD37 and DuoBody-CD3x5T4, and a discovery research collaboration for future differentiated antibody therapeutics for cancer. For epcoritamab, the companies will share commercial responsibilities in the U.S. and

Japan, with AbbVie responsible for further global commercialization. Genmab will book sales in the U.S. and Japan and receive tiered royalties on remaining global sales outside of these territories. For any product candidates developed as a result of the companies' discovery research collaboration, Genmab and AbbVie will share responsibilities for global development and commercialization in the U.S. and Japan. Genmab retains the right to co-commercialize these products, along with AbbVie, outside of the U.S. and Japan.

Under the terms of the agreement, Genmab received a USD 750 million (DKK 4,911 million) upfront payment in June 2020 and was initially entitled to receive an aggregate of up to USD 3.15 billion in additional development, regulatory and sales milestone payments for all programs. Included in these potential milestones were up to USD 1.15 billion in payments related to clinical development and commercial success across the three bispecific antibody programs originally included in the agreement, one of which, DuoBody-CD3x5T4, was subsequently stopped and another, DuoHexaBody-CD37, now being solely developed by Genmab.

As a result of one program being stopped and another now being solely developed by Genmab, Genmab is instead contractually entitled to receive an aggregate of up to USD 2.55 billion in additional development, regulatory and sales milestone payments for all programs and up to USD 550 million in payments related to clinical development and commercial success for the

one remaining bispecific antibody program, epcoritamab, included in the original agreement. In addition, and also included in these potential milestones, if all four next-generation antibody product candidates developed as a result of the discovery research collaboration are successful, Genmab is eligible to receive up to USD 2.0 billion in option exercise and success-based milestones. Genmab is further entitled to tiered royalties between 22% and 26% on net sales for epcoritamab outside the United States and Japan. Except for these royalty-bearing sales, Genmab will share with AbbVie pre-tax profits from the sale of licensed products on a 50:50 basis. Genmab and AbbVie split 50:50 the development costs related to epcoritamab, while Genmab will be responsible for 100% of the costs for DuoHexaBody-CD37 (after December 24, 2022) and the discovery research programs up to opt-in.

The total transaction price of USD 750 million (DKK 4,911 million) was allocated to the four performance obligations based on the best estimate of relative stand-alone selling prices. The allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations is summarized below:

  • Delivery of licenses for the three programs: USD 672 million (DKK 4,398 million)
  • Co-development activities for the product concepts: USD 78 million (DKK 513 million)

For the license grants, Genmab based the stand-alone selling price on a discounted cash flow approach and considered several factors

including, but not limited to, discount rate, development timeline, regulatory risks, estimated market demand and future revenue potential. For co-development activities related to up to four product concepts, a cost-plus margin approach was utilized.

The performance obligations related to the delivery of licenses were completed at a point in time (June 2020) and Genmab recognized USD 672 million (DKK 4,398 million) as license fee revenue in June 2020. After delivery of the licenses, Genmab shares further development and commercial costs equally with AbbVie. AbbVie is not assessed as a customer but as a collaboration partner, and as such this part of the collaboration is not in scope of IFRS 15.

In September 2021, Genmab, along with AbbVie, decided that the data did not support the further development of DuoBody-CD3x5T4. In June 2022, AbbVie decided to discontinue co-development of DuoHexaBody-CD37. Upon expiry of the 180-day notice period on December 24, 2022, Genmab became solely responsible for the further development of DuoHexaBody-CD37 against low-single digit royalty payments to AbbVie, up to an agreed maximum total royalty amount, based on future potential sales of the product.

Refer to Note 3.6 for information pertaining to the remaining performance obligation related to co-development activities for the product concepts.

BioNTech

In May 2015, Genmab entered into an agreement with BioNTech to jointly research, develop and commercialize bispecific antibody products using Genmab's DuoBody technology platform. Under the terms of the agreement, BioNTech will provide proprietary antibodies against key immunomodulatory targets, while Genmab provides proprietary antibodies and access to its DuoBody technology platform. Genmab paid an upfront fee of USD 10 million to BioNTech and an additional fee as certain BioNTech assets were selected for further development. If the companies jointly select any product candidates for clinical development, development costs and product ownership will be shared equally going forward. If one of the companies does not wish to move a product candidate forward, the other company is entitled to continue developing the product on predetermined licensing terms. The agreement also includes provisions which will allow the parties to opt out of joint development at key points. During July 2022, Genmab and BioNTech expanded this collaboration to include the joint research, development and commercialization of monospecific antibody candidates using Genmab's HexaBody technology platform.

Genmab and BioNTech have four investigational medicines currently in clinical development: DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB (GEN1042/BNT312), DuoBody-PD-L1x4-1BB (GEN1046/BNT311), HexaBody-CD27 (GEN1053/BNT313) and GEN1056 (BNT322).

Janssen (DuoBody)

In July 2012, Genmab entered into a collaboration with Janssen to create and develop bispecific antibodies using our DuoBody technology platform. Under this original agreement, Janssen had the right to use the DuoBody technology platform to create panels of bispecific antibodies (up to 10 DuoBody programs) to multiple disease target combinations. Genmab received an upfront payment of USD 3.5 million from Janssen and will potentially be entitled to milestone and license payments of up to approximately USD 175 million, as well as royalties for each commercialized DuoBody product.

Under the terms of a December 2013 amendment, Janssen was entitled to work on up to 10 additional programs. Genmab received an initial payment of USD 2 million from Janssen. For each of the additional programs that Janssen successfully initiates, develops and commercializes, Genmab will potentially be entitled to receive average milestone and license payments of approximately USD 191 million. Genmab will be entitled to royalties on sales of any commercialized products. All research work is funded by Janssen.

Janssen has exercised 14 licenses under this collaboration, not all of which are active, and no further options remain for use by Janssen.

As of December 31, 2022, three DuoBody-based products created under this collaboration were in active clinical development. Of these, RYBREVANT

and TECVAYLI were the first and second medicines, respectively, created using the DuoBody technology platform to receive regulatory approval. In December 2022, Janssen submitted a BLA to the U.S. FDA for the third product in active clinical development, talquetamab, for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Genmab receives milestones and royalties between 8% and 10% for RYBREVANT and milestones and a mid-single digit royalty for TECVAYLI based on Janssen's annual net product sales. Pursuant to the terms of the DuoBody agreement, Janssen's obligation to pay these royalties will expire on a country-by-country and licensed product-by-licensed product basis on the later of the date that is 10 years after the first sale of each licensed product in such country or upon the expiration of the last-to-expire relevant product patent (as defined in the agreement) covering the licensed product in such country.

Notes to the Financial Statements of the Parent Company

1 Accounting Policies

The financial statements of the parent company have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and in accordance with IFRS as endorsed by the EU and further requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act (Class D).

A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current reporting period. Genmab A/S did not have to change its accounting policies as a result of the adoption of these standards.

Refer to Note 1.2 in the consolidated financial statements for a description of new accounting policies and disclosures of the Group.

Changes to Accounting Policies

Investments in Subsidiaries

IFRS standard IAS 27 "Separate Financial Statements" permits investments in subsidiaries to be accounted for either at cost, at fair value in accordance with IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" or using the equity method as described in IAS 28 "Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures". Effective January 1, 2022, Genmab A/S has elected to measure investments in subsidiaries at cost in the financial statements of the parent company. Previously, investments in subsidiaries were measured using the equity method. This election was made as Genmab A/S has determined that measurement at cost provides more relevant information about the conditions of the parent company financial statements.

Under the cost method, investments in subsidiaries are measured at historical cost. Equity interests in foreign currencies are translated to the reporting currency by use of historical exchange rates prevailing at the time of investment.

Additions to the carrying value of investment in subsidiaries include capital contributions made by the parent and share-based payment transactions related to employees of the respective subsidiaries based on where the employee has rendered service.

Distributions from the investment are recognized as income when declared, if any. If the distribution exceeds the current period income or if circumstances or changes in Genmab's operations indicate that the carrying amount of the subsidiary may not be recoverable, the carrying amount is tested for impairment. Where the recoverable amount of the investments is lower than cost, the investments are written down to this lower value.

Correction of Prior Period Errors

During the period ending December 31, 2022, the parent company revised its income statements and statements of cash flows to correct an error related to share-based compensation expenses recorded by the parent company that should have been reported by its subsidiaries. Under IFRS 2, share-based payment transactions among group entities should be recorded as an expense by the entity that is receiving goods or services. The error resulted in an overstatement of Genmab A/S' share-based compensation expenses and an understatement of (loss) in subsidiaries, net of tax in the prior financial years.

In addition, an error was discovered related to cost sharing reimbursements with subsidiaries that were incorrectly recorded as a reduction to revenue. The error resulted in an understatement of revenue and research and development expenses, resulting in a revision in the parent company's income statements.

The impact of the change in accounting policy and the correction of the prior period errors on the financial statements are shown below. The comparative figures for fiscal years 2021 and 2020 have been restated accordingly.

Investments in Subsidiaries

The cost method is used for measuring the investments in subsidiaries. Under the cost method, investments in subsidiaries are measured at historical cost. Equity interests in foreign currencies are translated to the reporting currency by use of historical exchange rates prevailing at the time of investment.

Additions to the carrying value of investment in subsidiaries include capital contributions made by the parent and share-based payment transactions related to employees of the respective subsidiaries based on where the employee has rendered service.

Distributions from the investment are recognized as income when declared, if any. If the distribution exceeds the current period income or if circumstances or changes in Genmab's operations indicate that the carrying amount of the subsidiary may not be recoverable, the carrying amount is tested for impairment. Where the recoverable amount of the investments is lower than cost, the investments are written down to this lower value.

Refer to Note 1.1 in the consolidated financial statements for a description of the accounting policies of the Group.

To the shareholders of Genmab A/S
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our opinion

In our opinion, the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statements give a true and fair view of the Group's and the Parent Company's financial position at December 31, 2022 and of the results of the Group's and the Parent Company's operations and cash flows for the financial year January 1 to December 31, 2022 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU and further requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act.

Our opinion is consistent with our Auditor's Long-form Report to the Audit and Finance Committee and the Board of Directors.

What we have audited

The Consolidated Financial Statements and Parent Company Financial Statements of Genmab A/S for the financial year January 1 to December 31, 2022 comprise statement of comprehensive income, balance sheet, statement of cash flows, statement of changes in equity and notes, including summary of significant accounting policies for the Group as well as for the Parent Company. Collectively referred to as the "Financial Statements".

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark. Our responsibilities under those standards and requirements are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Statements section of our report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Independence

We are independent of the Group in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) and the additional ethical requirements applicable in Denmark. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code.

To the best of our knowledge and belief, prohibited non-audit services referred to in Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014 were not provided.

Appointment

Following the listing of the shares of Genmab A/S on Nasdaq Copenhagen, we were first appointed auditors of Genmab A/S on March 22, 2001 for the financial year 2001. We have been reappointed annually by shareholder resolution for a total period of uninterrupted engagement of 22 years including the financial year 2022.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the Financial Statements for 2022. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Financial Statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matter

Revenue recognition of DARZALEX FASPRO

In June 2022, the Group commenced binding arbitration of matters arising under its license agreement with Janssen Biotech, Inc. (Janssen) relating to DARZALEX FASPRO. The arbitration is to settle whether Janssen is to pay milestone payments for the DARZALEX FASPRO as a separate product, and whether the Group is entitled to a new 13-year royalty term from the date of DARZALEX FASPRO's first commercial sale. Based on discussions with in-house legal counsel, the Group has considered revenue subject to this arbitration as a variable consideration where it is not highly probable that the Group will not reverse this revenue in the future. Therefore, the Group has not recognized revenue in relation to the milestone payments, subject to the arbitration. The milestone payments constitute approximately DKK 2.8 billion (USD 405 million).

In relation to the revenue recognition of DARZALEX FASPRO it requires that Management make a significant judgement when determining the estimate of the variable consideration. We focused on the revenue recognition of DARZALEX FASPRO because estimating the variable consideration requires significant judgement by Management.

Reference is made to Note 5.6 in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

We tested certain internal controls over the process to record revenue, including controls related to the estimate of the variable consideration.

We evaluated and tested Management's process for determining the variable consideration and assessing the reasonableness of the estimate. This included (i) gaining an understanding of the Company's process around the accounting and reporting for the arbitration; (ii) discussing the status of the arbitration with the Company's in-house legal counsel as well as obtaining legal letter from the external legal counsel; (iii) evaluating the reasonableness of Management's estimate regarding recognition of the variable consideration; and (iv) evaluating the presentation and disclosure within the Financial Statements.

In connection with our audit of the Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read Management's Review and, in doing so, consider whether Management's Review is materially inconsistent with the Financial Statements, or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

Moreover, we considered whether Management's Review includes the disclosures required by the Danish Financial Statements Act.

Based on the work we have performed, in our view, Management's Review is in accordance with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statements and has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Danish Financial Statements Act. We did not identify any material misstatement in Management's Review.

Management's responsibilities for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation of consolidated financial statements and parent company financial statements that give a true and

fair view in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU and further requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act, and 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 Group's and the Parent Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless Management either intends to liquidate the Group or the Parent Company 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 and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark 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 and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism 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 Group's and the Parent Company'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 Group's and the Parent Company'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 Group or the Parent Company 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 gives a true and fair view.
  • 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 those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the Financial Statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter.

Report on Compliance with the ESEF Regulation

As part of our audit of the Financial Statements we performed procedures to express an opinion on whether the annual report of Genmab A/S for the financial year January 1 to December 31, 2022 with the file name 529900MTJPDPE4MHJ122-2022-12-31-en.zip is prepared, in all material respects, in compliance with the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815 on the European Single Electronic Format (ESEF Regulation) which includes requirements related to the preparation of the annual report in XHTML format and iXBRL tagging of the Consolidated Financial Statements including notes.

Management is responsible for preparing an annual report that complies with the ESEF Regulation. This responsibility includes:

  • The preparing of the annual report in XHTML format;
  • The selection and application of appropriate iXBRL tags, including extensions to the ESEF taxonomy and the anchoring thereof to elements in the taxonomy, for all financial information required to be tagged using judgement where necessary;
  • Ensuring consistency between iXBRL tagged data and the Consolidated Financial Statements presented in human-readable format; and

  • For such internal control as Management determines necessary to enable the preparation of an annual report that is compliant with the ESEF Regulation.

Our responsibility is to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the annual report is prepared, in all material respects, in compliance with the ESEF Regulation based on the evidence we have obtained, and to issue a report that includes our opinion. The nature, timing and extent of procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material departures from the requirements set out in the ESEF Regulation, whether due to fraud or error. The procedures include:

  • Testing whether the annual report is prepared in XHTML format;
  • Obtaining an understanding of the company's iXBRL tagging process and of internal control over the tagging process;
  • Evaluating the completeness of the iXBRL tagging of the Consolidated Financial Statements including notes;
  • Evaluating the appropriateness of the company's use of iXBRL elements selected from the ESEF taxonomy and the creation of extension elements where no suitable element in the ESEF taxonomy has been identified;
  • Evaluating the use of anchoring of extension elements to elements in the ESEF taxonomy; and

  • Reconciling the iXBRL tagged data with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements.

In our opinion, the annual report of Genmab A/S for the financial year January 1 to December 31, 2022 with the file name 529900MTJPDPE4MHJ122-2022-12-31-en.zip is prepared, in all material respects, in compliance with the ESEF Regulation.
