The accounting period in 2022 is from April 1 st to December 31st hence covering a 9-month period only. For definitions of financial ratios, see page 62.

Following the decline in gross profit margins over the previous year, a short-term plan (referred to as the Plan 2023/24) was developed during 2023 covering a 1½ year period. This plan – among others - included further operational consolidation, additional focus on purchase of parts and materials, additional focus on new markets, an updated go-to-market approach, new product launches, and organizational adjustments.
Plan 2023/24 has reached its preset targets and it will have full effect in 2025. Glunz & Jensen has initialized its next plan (Plan 2026) which focuses on increased efficiencies within the company. The plan targets an increase in efficiency by minimum 10% in 2025.
Main events in 2024:
Glunz & Jensen's sales to the Offset market decreased by 9,8% in 2024 compared to 2023. The market has seen a slow decline over a long period due to changes in consumer behavior driving less need for commercial print as well as a shift from traditional to digital print production.
While competition in the Flexo market remained fierce in 2024 we saw sales decreasing by 8,7% compared to calendar year 2023.
Glunz & Jensen estimates that the global market volume continues to grow at 1-3% annually and remains confident that we maintain momentum in this segment due to our professional network of partners as well as significant value offering.
Glunz & Jensen's strategic focus in recent years has been to meet customer demands through the development of new and competitive products, both in Offset and in Flexo. We develop machines both for our own brand and act as a trusted development partner for some of the world's largest plate manufacturers.
Selandia Park A/S' business objective is to invest in and operate a property portfolio. Rental income in Selandia Park A/S increased to DKK 11,3 million (2023: DKK 11,2 million), excluding rental income from Glunz & Jensen A/S. Approximately 11% of the property complex was idle by the end of 2024.
The portfolio of rental contracts is currently set to expire from 2026 at the earliest and to 2033 at the latest. Selandia Park A/S contributed DKK 4,5 million to profit before tax (2023: DKK 6,0 million).
The fair value of the investment properties amounts to DKK 144,7 million by December 31st, 2024 (2023: DKK 146,5 million). The value was negatively impacted compared to 2023 due to negative fair value adjustment of DKK 1,8 million mainly caused by higher market expectations in 2024 on return on investments compared to 2023.
Glunz & Jensen's strategy is based on the following key themes:
Offset is one of Glunz & Jensen's cornerstone business areas with iCtP solutions and CtP processors as main products. These develop and prepare aluminum Offset plates for commercial printing applications such as newspapers, inserts, magazines, books, information, promotional material, packaging, and a variety of other printed medias.
Our aim is to further retain our position as market leader on the global Offset market by consolidating our variety offering and through continuing to deliver cutting-edge quality products with low energy consumption and reduced environmental impact at competitive prices. Further we will increase our footprint in regions which are still showing notable progress for Offset products, mainly APAC and South America.
Glunz & Jensen is one of the largest providers of Flexo platemaking equipment globally. In addition, we act as a valued development and manufacturing partner for some of the largest plate manufacturers. The Flexo market – which mainly serves the labels and packaging industry develops at an estimated annual growth rate of 1-3%, driven by underlying growth in packaging, changing demographics, and shares gained from other printing technologies. We expect to continue to gain market share and dominate this segment going forward.
Glunz & Jensen's after sale-market business includes sales of spare parts, consumables for iCtP products, installation, repair, preventive maintenance of hardware and software. In addition to enhanced profitability, these activities strengthen our relationship with customers and provide valuable feedback and dialogue with the endusers.
Early in 2024 we launched a new training academy at our plant in Presov, Slovakia with the objective to continue to build technology understanding and skills with our partners and their customers. We already see significant benefit in bringing local capabilities to customers both in terms of knowledge but also through readily available support, in any local environment. A total of 5 planned academy training sessions in 2025 are already fully signed.
During the last years, a significant number of steps have been taken to further improve the profitability of Glunz & Jensen. These include reduction of product range (overlapping products), transfer of functions from Glunz & Jensen A/S, Denmark to Glunz & Jensen s.r.o., Slovakia and discontinuation of loss-making parts of our business and product portfolio plus a stringent focus on cost throughout the value chain. In addition, we have also made considerable strides to optimize our pricing strategy.
These significant steps combined with great effort by our staff have resulted in a significantly improved profitability, despite the shortages of parts and electronic components and higher-than-normal inflation.
For the fiscal year 2025, the Group revenue is expected to come in at approximately DKK 132 million, while operating profit (EBITDA) is expected at approximately DKK 15 million. The profit before tax is expected at approximately DKK 8 million. The outlook for the EBITDA and the profit before tax is before potential adjustments on fair value on the investment property.
Management underlines that the outlook for the fiscal year 2025 is associated with some uncertainty as the Company may be impacted by wars, inflation, challenges on the supply side of parts and other events.
It is the Group's intention to use the free cash flow to the greatest possible benefit of its shareholders. This includes investment in business development and technology as well as reduction of debt.

.
The Parent Company's revenue, which consists of management fees to subsidiaries, totaled DKK 6,2 million in fiscal year 2024 (2023: DKK 6,2 million).
Profit after tax in subsidiaries totaled a profit of DKK 2,0 million in fiscal 2024 (2023: a profit of DKK 1,1 million).
Regarding development in the subsidiaries please refer to the Group income statement information on page 9.
Financial income in 2024 amounted to DKK 1,1 million against DKK 2,2 million in 2023. The financial income relates to interest received from subsidiaries.
The Parent Company's profit after tax totaled a profit of DKK 2,8 million in 2024 against a profit of DKK 2,9 million in 2023.
The Parent Company's total assets amounted to DKK 106,8 million on December 31st, 2024 (2023: DKK 103,7 million).
Most of the assets in the Parent Company refer to the subsidiaries as investments in subsidiaries amount to DKK 88,7 million (2023: DKK 86,4 million) and receivables from subsidiaries came to DKK 17,5 million as of December 31st, 2024 (2023: DKK 16,8 million).

Cash flow from operating activities amounted to DKK 0 million in 2024 (2023: DKK 20,1 million). The DKK 20,1 million in 2023 were driven by a change in payables and receivables from subsidiaries as the parent has granted a DKK 20 million group contribution within the Group.

No events have occurred since December 31st , 2024, which are considered to have a significant impact on the Parent Company's financial position.
Glunz & Jensen Holding's risk policies and -procedures must efficiently and securely identify, control, and reduce the risks that may affect the Group's business base, development, and value creation. Several commercial and financial risk factors can have a significant impact on the Group's future financial position, activities, and results of operations. The Group's most important risk factors are outlined below.
Glunz & Jensen's revenue is affected by both global economic developments and changes in industryspecific conditions. The macroeconomic cycles generally affect Glunz & Jensen's customers' probability of investment and may reduce revenue and earnings.
Glunz & Jensen's order lead time are 4-16 weeks, which is considered to be market-conform. As revenue expectations beyond this period are based on nonbinding estimates from the Group's largest customers or based on expectations from management Glunz & Jensen, deviations from the expected revenue may occur.
Glunz & Jensen markets a large part of its production to a number of major customers with whom the Company has a long-term customer relationship. The four largest customers represent approximately 50% of total revenue. One customer account for more than 20% of the Group's revenue.
Glunz & Jensen's products are based on many years of development for the Offset and Flexo printing. Insight into the industry's process needs and production technologies is crucial to the Company's ability to maintain customer's loyalty. Some items in Glunz & Jensen's products are patented, but most of the Company's sales are based on products that do not involve patented technology.
Glunz & Jensen's goal is to be among the first to offer products tailored to new technologies within the Company's two product areas. This places great demands on continual product development, enabling the Group to market products at competitive prices in a timely manner, which will also match customer needs. Lack of success in this area can affect revenue and results of operations negatively.
Glunz & Jensen's most important Offset activity is the development and sales of CtP developers. The continued use of CtP processors is conditional on the development of Offset printing plates. Several large plate manufacturers have developed printing plates that do not require development. The process-free CtP technology has gained ground and may affect the demand for CtP processors negatively.
Glunz & Jensen's strategy in the Flexo area is the continued development of technology for solvent-based, and thermal-based prepress solutions, an area in which the Group is currently leading the market. Automation and adaptation to latest technologies are important requirements to ensure continued positive development of the Flexo area.
Prices in Offset and Flexo equipment are under pressure. This is largely due to vendor competition in Flexo offering similar technologies but also in Offset owing to yet cheaper supplies products (plates) coming into markets from China along with low-cost processing equipment. These products offer "good enough" quality for a short life span.
Maintaining high reliability of delivery and high quality is important to maintain existing customer relationships. To strengthen competitiveness, Glunz & Jensen has established its main production in Slovakia. If the factory in Slovakia is impacted by production problems or accidents, such as fire, this may affect delivery capacity and thus reduce the Group's earnings.
The Russia-Ukraine conflict has highlighted the need to consider geopolitical instability when choosing suppliers. Glunz & Jensen has strengthened its purchasing organization to counter potential supply risks. However, ongoing world-wide supply shortage may affect the cost prices and the planned in-flow of parts (incl. microchips) to Glunz & Jensen.
The risk associated with the investment properties is primarily determined by the uncertainty of the value of the properties involved. As such, a property market recession could materially adversely affect the value of the properties. Further the ability to secure that all properties is rented out will impact the future cash flow of Glunz & Jensen and thereby the value of the investment properties.

It is the Group's policy to hedge risks that may threaten the Group's financial position. In addition to statutory insurance, insurance against product liability and operating losses has thus been taken out. Properties, plant, and inventories are insured at replacement value at all risk levels.
The continuously evolving threat of cyber security, data leakage and data security are a key area of focus. A major cyberattack could result in an extended period of down time resulting in delays to customers and additional costs for the organization. Glunz & Jensen is focused on IT Security and awareness. In 2024, increased cyber awareness training and further IT security measures across the organization have been introduced helping to mitigate this risk.
It became evident during 2022 and 2023 that the inflation has been on the rise. Prices on manufacturing parts, electricity, gas, and financing cost - and general expectations on salaries are now higher than seen for more than a decade. Sourcing from Eastern Europe provides a more competitive market price for Glunz & Jensen even the inflation from these countries have remained at 3-4% in 2024. Glunz & Jensen is focused on managing the challenges associated with the uncertainty. The worldwide economic uncertainty – including the possibility of various countries introducing significantly higher custom fees - affects the profitability on Glunz & Jensen and the outlook is uncertain.
There is an ongoing consolidation in the graphic industry. Glunz & Jensen have no active participation in the industry consolidation; this trend will benefit Glunz & Jensen.

This statement of reporting on management is part of the Management's review, see section 107b of the Danish Financial Statements Act, covering the fiscal year January 1 st – December 31st, 2024. The statement consists of three elements:
Glunz & Jensen emphasizes the pursuit of good corporate governance and continuous optimization of the Group's Management. The overall framework for the management of Glunz & Jensen is based on the Company's Articles of Association, values, and policies as well as current Danish and international legislation and "Rules for Issuers of Shares" on NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen A/S, to ensure that the Group pursues its obligations to all shareholders, customers, employees, and other stakeholders, as well as to support long-term value creation.
Glunz & Jensen is governed by the Corporate Governance Committee's recommendations of December 2020.
The recommendations are available at: https://glunz-jensen.com/investors/corporategovernance
In accordance with the recommendations, we explain on Glunz & Jensen's website how the Company complies with the recommendations:
https://glunz-jensen.com/investors/corporategovernance
The Group has decided to deviate from the recommendations due to the size of the Company and thus arranged differently in the following areas:
Glunz & Jensen's Management continually seeks to have a dialogue with shareholders and other stakeholders. The company strives for a high degree of openness and effective dissemination of information.
The dialogue with and information to shareholders and stakeholders take place through the publication of interim reports and other communications from the Company, as well as meetings with investors, analysts, and the press and at the Company's general meeting. Interim reports and other announcements are available on Glunz & Jensen's website immediately after publication.
The company's Articles of Association contain no limits on ownership or voting rights. If an offer is made to acquire the Company's shares, the Board of Directors will – in accordance with Danish law – openly consider and convey the offer to the shareholders, accompanied by the Board of Directors comments.
The Glunz & Jensen Group has not entered Into significant agreements that are affected, changed, or expired in the event of a change of control of the Company.
There are no agreements with the Executive Management or employees regarding retention or compensation in case of resignation or dismissal or termination of a post as a result of the acquisition of the Glunz & Jensen Group
The general meeting is Glunz & Jense''s supreme decision-making body, and the Board of Directors emphasizes that shareholders should be given adequate information about the business to be transacted at the general meeting. Notice of general meetings is published on the website and sent electronically to all registered shareholders, who have registered their e-mail address at least three weeks prior to the event.
All shareholders are entitled to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting. Shareholders can also provide a power of attorney to the Board – on an item-by-item case on the agenda. The general meeting gives shareholders the opportunity to ask questions to the Board of Directors and the Executive Management. The shareholders can submit proposals that must be discussed at the general meeting. The Articles of Association contain no special rules regarding amendments to the Compan''s Articles of Association. Thus, only the provisions of the Danish Companies Act apply in this area.
According to the Articles of Association, the Board of Directors consists of three to six members elected by the general meeting. Each year, all the members are elected by the general meeting. Resigned members are eligible for re-election. The Board of Directors elects a Chairman and a Deputy Chairman from among its own number. Further, two employee representatives are elected for a 4-year election period, which has been determined in accordance with the Danish Companies Act.
The current Board of Directors consisted of five members at the end of the fiscal year 2024, one of whom is an employee representative. One employee representative resigned during 2024. The two employee representatives were elected in May 2021 for a four-year period. Due to the size of the Glunz & Jensen, it is not required for Glunz & Jensen to have employee representatives after the annual general meeting in 2025.
In connection with the election of new Board members, a careful assessment of required knowledge and professional experience is made to ensure that the Board possesses the necessary competencies. Information about the individual Board members can be found on page 25.
In accordance with the Danish Companies Act, the Board of Directors represents Glunz & Jensen's overall management and defines the Group's goals and strategies as well as approves the overall budgets and action plans. In addition, the Board of Directors in general supervises the Group and checks that it is managed properly and in accordance with Danish law and the Articles of Association. The general guidelines for the Board's work are laid down in the rules of procedure, reviewed at least once a year and adapted to Glunz & Jensen's needs. The rules of procedure include procedures for Management's reporting, the Board's working method and a description of the Chairman's tasks and responsibilities.
The Board of Directors is notified on an ongoing basis of the Group's performance. This takes place systematically at meetings as well as in written and oral reports. The Board receives a monthly report, which includes information on financial performance and the most important activities and transactions are presented by the Management to the Board at monthly review meetings.
At least five ordinary Board meetings must be held annually with a fixed plan for the agenda of the meetings. In addition, the Board meets whenever necessary. In fiscal 2024, five board meetings were held.
The three Board committees (Product, Audit and Remuneration) have conducted the following formal number of meetings in 2024; Product committee eleven meetings, Audit committee nine meetings and Remuneration committee two meetings.
In connection with the strategy review, the Board of Directors and the Executive Management perform a comprehensive risk assessment for the Group to identify which issues – internal as external – may affect the Group's business base and development.
The risk assessment focuses primarily on the identification of business risks, and for selected risks, action plans are identified to reduce and handle such risks. Glunz & Jensen has decided to manage general risks by taking out relevant insurance, such as "all-risk" on buildings and movables, transport insurance etc. As a main rule, financial risks are the result of commercial activities, and the Group does not actively speculate in financial risks.
The Board of Directors establishes policies and frameworks for the Group's key risks and ensures effective management of these risks. Reporting on significant risks is included in the ongoing reporting to the Board of Directors.
For a more detailed description of Glunz & Jensen's risks, see the section "Risk factors".
The Executive Management is appointed by the Board of Directors. The Executive Management is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Group and, in accordance with guidelines and written instructions developed by the Board of Directors, prepares action plans and budgets that support the Company's strategy and reports on ongoing performance developments, risks and other essential information to the Board. The Board of Director's delegation of responsibilities to the Executive Management is outlined in the Board's rules of procedure.
A formalized evaluation of the work of the Board of Directors and the Executive Management is in place. The Chairman of the Board of Directors regularly reviews the work of the Executive Management and individual Board members, the cooperation of the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors' working methods and the cooperation between the Board of Directors, and the Executive Management. Based on these assessments, the Board of Directors' and the Executive Management's work is adjusted on a regular basis.
Glunz & Jensen seeks to ensure that members of the Board of Directors and the Executive Management are remunerated at a competitive and reasonable level, helping to ensure that Glunz & Jensen can attract and retain competent individuals.
Members of the Board of Directors receive a fixed, annual fee, and the total remuneration to the Board of Directors is approved by the Annual General Meeting in connection with the approval of the annual report. In fiscal 2024, directors' fees which covered a 12-month period amounted to DKK 833.000, including DKK 300.000 to the Chairman, DKK 150.000 to the Vice-Chairman and DKK 100.000 to the other members except for the employee representative resigned who received director fee up to the resignation date in amount DKK 83.000. Members of the Board of Directors are not subject to bonus schemes.
The remuneration of the Executive Management is determined by the Board of Directors. In 2024, members of the Executive Management received a basic salary, including usual benefits such as company car and telephone, and are also eligible for a bonus scheme. The Executive Management consisted of CEO Henrik Blegvad Funk and COO Robert Popik. The total 12 month period remuneration paid to the Executive Management amounted to DKK 3,5 million in 2024.
The Remuneration report 2024 is available at: https://glunz-jensen.com/investors/corporategovernance
Glunz & Jensen continually seeks to establish incentive programs that support its shareholders value creation.
The incentive programs for the Executive Management and key employees includes a bonus scheme. The results in 2024 led provisions of DKK 0 related to the bonus schemes.
The Board of Directors and the Executive Management have overall responsibility for the Group's risk management and internal control in connection with the financial reporting process, e.g., responsibility for ensuring compliance with relevant legislation and other regulations in relation to the financial reporting.
The Group's internal control and risk management systems should improve the probability of reporting without significant errors, omissions, and irregularities and, moreover, should ensure that the financial statements are presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as approved by the EU and other accounting regulations applicable to Danish listed companies.
The Group's internal control and risk management systems in connection with the financial reporting include:
The Board of Directors is responsible for identifying the Group's most significant risks and the adequacy of internal controls in connection with the presentation of the financial statements. The Executive Management is responsible for the operational organization and daily execution of an effective control environment, e.g., for ensuring compliance with relevant legislation in connection with the presentation of the financial statements. The Executive Management reports to the Board of Directors on all relevant matters and assessments.
The operational management includes an appropriate organizational structure, written procedures for essential processes, accounting instructions for subsidiaries, authorization and certification rules, segregation of duties, consolidation procedures, check and documentation lists and IT security. The Executive Management regularly assesses the adequacy of the control environment, including the adequacy of resources and competencies. Glunz & Jensen is preparing a migration to a new ERP system during 2025 which is expected to be in place by 2026.
The Board of Directors and the Executive Management continually consider risks that are of importance to the Group's financial reporting, based on a concrete assessment of the significance and probability of each individual risk. The risk assessment focuses on significant financial items and involves an assessment of the immediate risk associated with each item and the critical processes that form the individual financial statements.
Risk assessments and risk management are included as part of the Group's strategy plan.
The Group's control activities are organized taking into account the overall objective of reducing the risk of material misstatements, deficiencies or irregularities to an acceptable and low level, so that the consolidated financial statements and the financial statements are correct. Control activities are performed at management and operational level, and checks are performed manually and systematically.
Control activities include the following essential elements:
The Board of Directors and the Executive Management annually assess the adequacy of the Group's risk management and control systems in the context of the year-end process, including how the Group is protected against fraud and accounting irregularities. The assessment is based on a goal of efficiency and accountability, and focus is thus primarily on significant matters.
The external auditor is elected annually by the Annual General Meeting. Prior to the election, the Board of Directors assesses the auditor's independence and competences etc. Audit tender process is performed when required by law or more frequently if the Board of Directors decides it to be appropriate.
The scope for the auditor's work – including fee, auditrelated tasks, and non-audit related tasks – are stipulated in an agreement.
Members of the Board of Directors receive the external auditor's audit report concerning the auditor's review of the annual report. The Board of Directors reviews the audit report and the annual report at a meeting with the external auditor, and the auditor's observations and significant findings arising from the audit are discussed. In addition, the significant accounting policies and audit assessments are reviewed. The audit committee and the auditor also conduct an annual meeting to approve the audit plan for and the scope for the annual report.
A statutory CSR statement, according to section 99a of the Danish Financial Statements Act, is part of the Management's review. We adopt social co-responsibility in the local areas where the Group is located. The Group wishes to promote a working culture throughout the organization that ensures a sensible and appropriate balance between financial, social, and environmental development. In this regard, it is crucial for the CSR work that Glunz & Jensen's production strategy and value chain management is based to a large extent on an outsourcing model. Virtually all manufacturing of parts takes place with a large number of subcontractors, after which Glunz & Jensen is responsible for product assembly and distribution. Subcontractors are selected at the starting point of our ISO 9001 procedures. This ensures that subcontractors meet our requirements.
In this section, the Glunz & Jensen Group provides a report on intended social responsibility, our policies, actions taken as well as results achieved in 2024. We have performed a risk assessment and have not identified risks within the areas of climate, environment, social and anticorruption.
Glunz & Jensen strives to operate its business in a responsible manner and wants to comply with the legislation in all the countries where operations are conducted. Furthermore, compliance with Human Rights and consideration for the environment are considerable focus areas for the Group.
Glunz & Jensen's work with corporate social responsibility is based on value creation and risk management.
Glunz & Jensen has chosen to focus its work on social responsibility within five areas: environment, anticorruption, human rights, working environment, and equality.
As part of the Prepress industry, Glunz & Jensen places an ongoing fundamental focus on reducing the use of chemical products and helping reduce the number of production processes that are environmentally harmful and energy intensive.
The Group wishes – to the extent possible and if it is financially sound – to help increase the number of young people who get a business-related education.
The Group supports the staff associations and company sports associations, which aim to strengthen collegial cohesion through the organization of various activities that support employee well-being, social relations, and exercise.
The Group has several initiatives which include economic support for charitable purposes that naturally belong to CSR. Thus, the Group assumes social responsibility in some areas and works to comply with the ethical business practices expressed by CSR activities.
The policies below have been approved by the Board of Directors.
For a description of Glunz & Jensen's business model please see pages 6 to 8 in the annual report.
In accordance with the regulations, we communicate on our data ethical policies on Glunz & Jensen's website: https://glunz-jensen.com/investors/corporategovernance
The processing of personal data is not a critical part of and neither closely linked to the companies' business activities. As a B2B company with no transactions with private customers, the company only processes personal data in respect of customers and suppliers to a very limited extent – and only for customer/supplier administration purposes. The processing of personal data mainly relates to the internal activities involving employees' personal data for HR administration purposes.
Glunz & Jensen seeks to reduce its impact on the climate and environment by reducing energy consumption year by year. The Group is a know-how and engineering company with production of key components. The production mainly consists of assembling and testing and does not include energy-demanding or polluting processes. All surface treatment processes are outsourced to sub-suppliers. A part of Glunz & Jensen 's supplier and customer "Code of Conduct" addresses impact on the climate and environment. See under Human rights for more information about the supplier and customer "Code of Conduct".
Glunz & Jensen actively seeks to reduce its energy consumption by, for example, installing LED lighting in its facilities. Glunz & Jensen also installed (Photovoltic) solar roof panels in June 2024 at its production facilities in Slovakia and plan to increase the capacity during Q2, 2025.
In 2024, Glunz & Jensen continued a project to outline how Glunz & Jensen as a company can become CO2 neutral and the project continues in 2025.
Glunz & Jensen will reduce consumption of 5.000 kWh by 2025 year in its production.

Glunz & Jensen realized 0,9% higher consumption of kWh in 2024 compared to the goal of 200.000 kWh. However, the consumption was 2,0% lower than in 2023. The installation of (Photovoltic) solar roof panels in Slovakia by mid-2024 has supplied Glunz & Jensen with sustainable kWh. We continue to create awareness and as well as general focus on optimization of consumption in the production.

We have at no time experienced human rights violations in connection with our business and we have assessed that the risk is very limited. We adhere to Danish, Slovakian, and European regulations, and we only work with trusted partners, who are equally dedicated to human rights and the rule of law.

For 2025 we plan to continue with our work regarding human rights.

Page | 28 ANNUAL REPORT 2024
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 assets, liabilities and financial position at December 31st, 2024 and of the results of the Group's and Parent Company's operations and cash flows for the financial year January 1 st, 2024 – December 31st, 2024 in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU and additional requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act.
Our opinion is consistent with our long-form audit report to the Board or Directors and the Audit Committee.
Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S' consolidated financial statements and parent company financial statements for the financial year January 1st – December 31st, 2024, comprise the income statement, statement of comprehensive income, balance sheet, statement of changes in equity, statement of cash flows and notes, including summary of significant accounting policies, for the Group as well as for the Parent Company (the financial statements). The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU and additional requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act.
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.
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, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code.
We declare, to the best of our knowledge and belief, that we have not provided any prohibited non-audit services, as referred to in Article 5(1) of the Regulation (EU) 537/2014 and that we remained independent in conducting the audit.
We were appointed auditors of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S for the first time on June 30th, 2021, for the financial year 2021/22. We have been re-appointed by resolutions passed by the annual general meeting for a total uninterrupted engagement period of 4 years up to and including the financial year ending December 31st , 2024.
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for the 2024 financial year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in the forming of our opinion thereon. We do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
• Valuation of investment property
For the purpose of our audit, the procedures we carried out included the following:
Management is responsible for the Management's review.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the Management's review, and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the Management's review and, in doing so, consider whether the Management's review is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our knowledge obtained during the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
Moreover, it is our responsibility to consider whether the Management's review provides the information required by relevant law and regulations.
Based on the work we have performed; we conclude that the Management's review is in accordance with the financial statements and has been prepared in accordance with relevant law and regulations. We did not identify any material misstatement of the Management's review.
Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU and additional requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act and for such internal control that 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.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance as to 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 may 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 conducted in accordance with ISAs and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
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 to 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 therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determined that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
As part of our audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements and Parent Company Financial Statements of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S we performed procedures to express an opinion on whether the annual report of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S for the financial year January 1st, 2024 – December 31st, 2024 with the file name 549300S5UFTTWALAFE19-2024-12-31- 0-en 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.
Management is responsible for preparing an annual report that complies with the ESEF Regulation. This responsibility includes:
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:
In our opinion, the annual report of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S for the financial year January 1 st,2024 – December 31st , 2024, with the file name 549300S5UFTTWALAFE19-2024-12-31-0-en is prepared, in all material respects, in compliance with the ESEF Regulation.

ANNUAL REPORT 2024 Page | 37
Parent Company 2021/22
In applying the Group's and the Parent Company's accounting policies, Management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions concerning the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that cannot be immediately inferred from other sources. The judgments, estimates and assumptions made are based on historical experience and other relevant factors which Management considers reasonable under the circumstances, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Estimates and underlying assumptions are assessed on an ongoing basis. Changes to accounting estimates are recognized in the reference period in which the change occurs and in future reference periods if the change affects both the period in which the change occurs and subsequent reference periods.
The Group's primary loan agreement with Nordea is subject is subject to three covenants, which the Group must observe in order to maintain the financing. The financial covenants are related to the financial ratio "solvency", the agreed level of EBITDA% (EBITDA vs. revenue), and debt leverage (interest bearing debt vs. EBITDA). During 2024 Glunz & Jensen did breach the agreed level of EBITDA% and the debt leverage covenant, however Nordea accepted the breach. The budget for 2025 was presented to and viewed satisfactory by Nordea and a letter of cooperation for 2025 was received by Glunz & Jensen in January 2025. On this basis, Management considers the Group's funding for 2025 sufficient to be able to continue meeting its payment obligations and its obligations under the financing covenants during 2025.
For investment properties, a valuation methodology based on a discounted cash flow (DCF) model is used every year. The average yield in 2024 is 7,2% (2023: 6,9%). Including inflation, the average discount rate in 2024 is 9,7% (2023: 9,4%). The yearly rent adjustment of 2,5% was used for all years, the maintenance per m2 in DKK was 42 and the DCF model include occupancy rate of 89% in 2025 and 2026 and 100% after 2026, Calculated terminal cash flow is based on an average yield of 7,2%. Year 1-15 is based on an average discount rate of 9,7%.
Key assumption in the fair value calculation is the yield and discount rate. Sensitivity analysis of the fair value calculation indicates that a change in the discount rate +/- 0,5% will lead to a fair value adjustment of approximately DKK 9 million.
The yield rate is based on available information from commercial real estate agents and the Executive Management's assessments. The fair values of the properties are however not based on valuations performed by an independent external valuer. Please see note 14 concerning investment properties.
Write-downs for expected losses on receivables from sales are recognized immediately in the income statement at the same time as the receivable based on a simplified expected credit loss model. When estimating the level of receivables that in the future is expected not to be collected Management take the following information into account: historical losses on receivables, ageing of the receivables, access to payment securities and possibilities to off-set assets against claims. When doing the assessment, we also evaluate the global financial situation and political environments that could impact the recoverability.
In connection with the preparation of the annual report and during the year, Management regularly assesses the need for writing down the inventory value regarding phase-out of materials, consumables, and/or finished machines. The need for write-downs is estimated based on analysis in which last year's revenue is compared to the present composition of the inventories. The percentage of the write-down increase depends on the number of years of revenue the inventory is estimated to cover. If Management estimates that future revenue differs significantly compared to historical sales, e.g., due to planned phase-outs, this is taken into consideration in the impairment test. Normally, inventory write-downs are made when Management estimates that the product portfolio covers more than two years' future expected revenue. Most of the uncertainties in the impairment test relate to estimating the future revenue, the effect of phase-outs and the precision of the write-down percentages used.
When measuring deferred tax assets, Management considers if future earnings, based on budget and operating plans, will make it possible to utilize the temporary differences between the carrying amount and the tax base of assets and liabilities or tax loss-carry forwards. See note 17, which states that tax loss-carry forward are expected to be utilized by 2029 at the latest.
The carrying amounts of non-current assets are reviewed annually to determine whether there is any evidence of impairment. If any such evidence exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less expected disposal costs and its value in use. The value in use is determined as the present value of expected future cash flows from the asset or the cash-generating unit to which the assets belong.
Completed development projects are tested at least annually for impairment. The impairment test is based on flexo revenue growth averaging about 1-3% per year during a 5-year period. The Group's completed development projects on December 31st, 2024, are amortized over 3 years. The uncertainties in the impairment test relate to estimated future sales and product life.
Please see note 11 concerning intangible assets.
In applying the Group's and the Parent Company's accounting policies, Management is required to make other judgments not relating to estimates which might significantly affect amounts recognized in the annual report.
Management has made such judgments concerning:
The Glunz & Jensen Group's main activities lie within the Prepress market. Product area Flexo and Product area Offset, are both part of the Prepress market. All products and services are connected to setters and printing equipment. In addition to equipment, Glunz & Jensen sells installation of the equipment, service, and spare parts. At the production facility in Slovakia, Glunz & Jensen manufactures both Flexo and Offset equipment. Glunz & Jensen markets Flexo and Offset through a comprehensive and worldwide network of private label partners, distributors, and dealers. Flexo and Offset equipment are sold on a standalone basis or in conjunction with other product types. Glunz & Jensen's service organization provides service for both Flexo and Offset equipment. Glunz & Jensen sees an overlap between customers within Flexo and Offset. Consequently, Glunz & Jensen has concluded that Offset and Flexo belong to the same segment. The management of Glunz & Jensen and the internal financial reporting is organized accordingly.
Thus Glunz & Jensen Group account can be divided into two segments: prepress market and investment properties, Selandia Park.
Glunz & Jensen presents entity-wide information regarding geographical distribution of revenue and assets. However, Glunz & Jensen's financial reporting does not include information regarding geographical markets beyond those reflected in note 2 and geographical markets are not considered operating segments.

The Glunz & Jensen Group consists of two reportable segments: the Prepress market and rental of the Selandia Park properties.
Sales and purchases between the segments are made on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm's length transactions.

Inventory write-downs are made based on an assessment that includes expectations as to future demand and use of the item concerned. As such expectations can change from year to year, significant fluctuations in the need for write-downs may occur. As a result, written-down inventories are sometimes reversed.

The Parent Company acts as management company for the jointly taxed Danish companies. Pursuant to the provisions of the Danish Corporation Tax Act, the Parent Company is thus liable to withhold tax at source on interest, royalties, and dividend for the jointly taxed companies for contingent liabilities and to withhold income taxes. The Parent Company recognized jointly tax receivables in the balance sheet amounting to DKK 0 on December 31st , 2024 (December 31st , 2023: DKK 0). The Parent Company's liability regarding joint tax may be impacted by future corrections of the taxable income. The companies in the joint taxation arrangement are not subject to withholding tax on dividends, interest, or royalties.
As a result of its operating, investing, and financing activities, the Group is exposed to various financial risks, including market risks, credit risks and liquidity risks. It is the Group's policy not to speculate actively in financial risks. The Group's financial risk management is thus aimed exclusively at managing the financial risks that are a direct consequence of the Group's operating, investing, and financing activities.
The Group's currency risk consists of transaction risks and currency translation risks.
The main part of the Group's sales is invoiced in EUR and USD. In 2024, approx. 80% of sales were invoiced in EUR and approx. 11% in USD (2023: 79% in EUR and 13% in USD).
The main part of the Group's expenses is paid in EUR 66%, DKK 24% and USD 9%. In 2024, expenses paid in DKK, USD and EUR amounted to 99% of total expenses (2023: 98%). As Management considers the EUR/DKK exchange rate to be fixed, the Group's exposure to currency risks is limited.
As part of the Group's currency policy, Glunz & Jensen seeks only to reduce the impact of exchange rate fluctuations (EUR exempted) on its profits and financial position via financial instruments when the risk is assessed as unacceptable. As in 2023, future currency transactions are currently not hedged. Due to the foreign subsidiaries, Glunz & Jensen is exposed to currency translation risks insofar as part of the Group's earnings and net assets derive from these foreign subsidiaries and, therefore, are translated and included in the consolidated financial statements, which are presented in DKK.
An increase in the USD rate of 10% is estimated, all else being equal, to affect the Group's operating profit by approx. DKK 91 thousand (2023: DKK 27 thousand). The estimate is based on the level of USD Profit/(loss) transactions in 2024.
Based on the Group's USD exposure at the balance sheet date, the impact of a hypothetical fluctuation of 10% of the USD/DKK exchange rate on the profit/(loss) for the year and consolidated equity amounts to DKK 175 thousand regarding cash and receivables (2023: DKK 49 thousand) and DKK 90 thousand regarding financial liabilities (2023: DKK 90 thousand), respectively.
As a result of its investing and financing activities, the Group is exposed to interest rate fluctuations. Net interest-bearing debt on December 31st , 2024, amounted to DKK 70.500 thousand (2023: DKK 73.400 thousand).
During 2023 Selandia entered a DKK 10.034 thousand floating-rate 10-year DKK-based bond loan. Further Selandia converted the existing DKK-based bond loan of DKK 50.810 thousand to a new loan in the same value however repayment period was prolonged to 20 years and the interest rate fixed at 6%. During 2024 Selandia entered a DKK 4.300 thousand fixed-rate 10-year and 3-month DKK-based bond loan. All other interest-bearing debt earns interest at floating rates.
A 1 percentage point change in the general interest rate level relative to the balance sheet date is estimated to affect the Group's profit/(loss) for the year by DKK 148 thousand and consolidated equity by DKK 148 thousand based on financial commitments at December 31st , 2024 (2023: an effect on the profit/(loss) for the year of DKK 194 thousand and consolidated equity of DKK 194 thousand). The estimate does not include adjustments concerning repayment and borrowing.
The Group may realize losses if trade and other receivables are not settled. The majority of the Group's goods and services are sold to large companies with which Glunz & Jensen has long-term relationship. The four largest customers account for approx. 49,8% of total revenue. The Group normally requires prepayment from new customers.
Based on the Group's internal credit procedures, the credit risk associated with the various trade receivables mainly relates to the customer's geographical location. Trade receivables deemed to have a high credit quality (low risk) are estimated to relate to Western Europe and North America. Conversely, trade receivables relating to Asia, Eastern Europe and the rest of the world are deemed to have a lower credit quality (medium and high risk). As part of the Group's risk management, past-due receivables are monitored monthly. Historically, the Group has realized only minor credit losses related to trade receivables. Please refer to note 20 regarding the credit quality of trade receivables.
Liquidity risk is the risk that Glunz & Jensen will be unable to meet its obligations as they fall due because of its inability to liquidate assets or obtain adequate funding.
The Group's primary loan agreement with Nordea is subject is subject to three covenants, which the Group must observe in order to maintain the financing. The financial covenants are related to the financial ratio "solvency", the agreed level of EBITDA% (EBITDA vs. revenue), and debt leverage (interest bearing debt vs. EBITDA). During 2024 Glunz & Jensen did breach the agreed level of EBITDA% and the debt leverage covenant, however Nordea accepted the breach. The budget for 2025 was presented to and viewed satisfactory by Nordea and a letter of cooperation for 2025 was received by Glunz & Jensen in January 2025.

The maturity analysis is based on undiscounted cash flows, including estimated interest payments. Interest payments are based on current market conditions.
Management believes that the Group has sufficient cash resources to cover planned operations and ongoing investments.
It is the Group's policy that capital is distributed to the shareholders via dividends or that Glunz & Jensen purchases treasury shares if and when earnings justify it. This means that during periods of low and unstable income, the solvency ratio must be high, while it may be reduced if earnings stabilize at a higher level than achieved in recent years.
On December 31st , 2024, the solvency ratio was 49,2% (2023: 46,4%). Based on the performance during 2024 and the outlook for 2025, the Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that no dividend be distributed for fiscal 2024.
There was no difference between the fair values and the carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities on December 31st , 2024, or on December 31st , 2023. Short-term, floating-rate bank loans are measured at a price of 100. The methods used are unchanged compared with last year.

No other events have occurred since December 31st, 2024, which are considered to have a significant impact on the Group's or the Parent Company's financial position.
The IASB has issued several new standards and amendments not yet in effect or endorsed by the EU and therefore not relevant for the preparation of the 2024 consolidated financial statements. Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S expects to implement these standards when they take effect. None of the new standards issued are currently expected to have any significant impact on the consolidated financial statements when implemented.
Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S is a limited company domiciled in Denmark. The annual report for the period January 1 st - December 31st , 2024, includes both consolidated financial statements of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S and its subsidiaries (the Group) and the separate financial statements of the Parent Company.
The annual report of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S for 2024 has been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU and additional requirements of the Danish disclosure requirements for listed companies.
The Board of Directors discussed and approved the annual report of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S for 2024 on March 17 th , 2025. The annual report will be submitted to the shareholders of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S for adoption at the Annual General Meeting on April 9 th , 2025.
The annual report is presented in DKK, rounded to the nearest amount in DKK thousands. The annual report is prepared using the historical cost principle. However, recognized derivatives are measured at fair value. Non-current assets are measured at the lower of their carrying amount before the reclassification and fair value less selling costs.
The accounting policies have been applied consistently in the financial year and to comparative figures.
Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S has implemented all the relevant new or amended IFRS Accounting Standards and interpretations as adopted by the EU that are effective as of January 1 st, 2024.
No new standards or interpretations have had effect on the financial statements of the Group.
The accounting policies have been applied consistently in the financial year and to comparative figures.
The consolidated financial statements include the Parent Company Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S and subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the group. The group 'controls' an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which control commences until the date on which control ceases.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared by aggregating the Parent Company's and the individual subsidiaries' financial statements, applying the Group's accounting policies. Intra-group income and expenses, shareholdings, balances, and dividends as well as realized and unrealized gains arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated on consolidation.
Entities in which the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights and over which it exercises significant influence, but which it does not control, are considered associates.
A functional currency is designated for each of the reporting entities in the Group. The functional currency is the currency used in the primary economic environment in which the reporting entity operates. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are transactions in foreign currencies.
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at the transaction date. Gains and losses arising between the rate at the transaction date and the rate at the date of payment are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income under financial income and expenses.
Receivables and payables and other monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Differences between the rate at the balance sheet date and the rate at the transaction date or the exchange rate stated in the latest annual report are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income under financial income and expenses.
On recognition of foreign subsidiaries and associates with a functional currency other than DKK, items in the statement of comprehensive income are translated at average rate rates that do not differ significantly from the rates ruling at the transaction date. Balance sheet items in subsidiaries and the equity share of associates are translated at closing rates.
Exchange rate differences arising on the translation of the opening equity of subsidiaries and associates at closing rates and on the translation of items in the statement of comprehensive income from average rates to closing rates are recognized in the consolidated financial statements under other comprehensive income in equity as a separate translation reserve.
The Glunz & Jensen Group's main activities lie within Flexo and Offset, which are both part of the prepress market. All products and services are connected to setters and printing equipment. In addition to equipment, Glunz & Jensen sells installation of the equipment, service, and spare parts.
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Group has generally concluded that it is the principal in its revenue arrangements, because it typically controls the goods or services before transferring them to the customer.
The recognized revenue is measured at the fair value of the agreed consideration exclusive of VAT and fees collected on behalf of third parties. All forms of discounts will be recognized in revenue.
Any part of the total consideration that is variable, e.g. in the form of discounts, bonuses, penalties, etc., will be recognized in revenue only when reasonably certain that no repayments will be made in subsequent periods, i.e. as the result of failure to meet goals, etc.
Revenue from sale of goods is recognized at the point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the customer, generally on delivery of the equipment. The normal credit term is 30 to 90 days upon delivery.
The Group considers whether there are other promises in the contract that are separate performance obligations to which a portion of the transaction price needs to be allocated (e.g., warranties). In determining the transaction price for the sale of equipment, the Group considers the effects of variable consideration, the existence of significant financing components, noncash consideration, and consideration payable to the customer (if any).
Customers are not entitled to return purchased goods.
The sale of services includes service packages and extended guarantees concerning products sold. The services typically include one performance obligation which is recognized on a straight-line basis over the period during which the services are provided.
Rental income arising from operating leases on investment properties is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
The Group distributes the cost, including depreciation and amortization and wages and salaries, by the functions production costs, sales and distribution costs, development costs and administrative expenses. Costs not directly attributable to a function are allocated to the functions based on the number of employees in each function.
Administrative expenses comprise operating expenses relating to the Group's investment property.
Development costs comprise research costs and any development costs not qualifying for capitalization and depreciation and amortization of capitalized development projects.
Administrative expenses comprise operational expenses relating to the Group's rental property.
Other operating income and expenses comprise items of a secondary nature, including gains and losses from disposal of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, which are measured as the selling price less selling costs and the carrying value at the time of sale.
Financial income and expenses comprise interest, including interest on lease liabilities, fair value gains and losses on securities, realized and unrealized foreign exchange adjustments, amortization and surcharges and allowances under the tax prepayment scheme. Also included are realized and unrealized gains and losses relating to derivative financial instruments not qualifying as effective hedges.
Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S is jointly taxed with its Danish subsidiaries. The current Danish income tax charge is allocated among the jointly taxed entities in proportion to their taxable income.
Tax for the year, comprising current income tax for the year and changes in deferred tax, including such changes as follow from changes in the tax rate, is recognized in profit or loss, other comprehensive income or in equity, depending on where the relevant item is recognized.
Development costs comprise costs and salaries and depreciation and amortization relating to the Group's development activities.
Development costs on an individual project are recognized as an intangible asset, when the Group can demonstrate the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that the asset will be available for use or sale, its intention to complete and its ability and intention to use or sell the asset, how the asset will generate future economic benefits, the availability of resources to complete the asset and the ability to reliably measure the expenditure during development.
Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as an asset, the asset is carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization of the asset begins when development is complete, and the asset is available for use. It is amortized over the period of expected future benefit, which is 3-10 years. During the period of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually.
Other development costs are expensed as incurred.
Property, plant, and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost comprises the purchase price and any costs directly attributable to the acquisition until the asset is available for use.
Subsequent costs, e.g., for the replacement of components of an item of property, plant, or equipment, are recognized in the carrying amount of the asset when it is likely that the expenditure of the replacement involves a future financial benefit for the Group. The carrying amount of the replaced components ceases to be recognized in the balance sheet and is transferred to profit or loss. All other costs related to general repair and maintenance are recognized in profit or loss as and when incurred.
The cost value of a total asset is divided into separate components that are depreciated separately if the useful lives of the individual components differ. Items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their expected useful lives:
| Buildings and components | 10-30 years |
|---|---|
| Technical installations | 10-15 years |
| Other fixtures and fittings | 3-5 years |
Land is not depreciated.
The depreciation basis is determined considering the residual value of the asset and any impairment losses. The residual value is determined at the date of acquisition and is reassessed annually. If the residual value exceeds the carrying amount of the asset, depreciation will cease. If the depreciation period or the residual value is changed, the effect on depreciation going forward is recognized as a change in accounting estimates.
A lease asset and a lease liability are recognized in the balance sheet when a right-of-use lease asset is transferred to the group or the parent company for the term of the lease pursuant to a concluded lease agreement and the group obtains the right to substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the identifiable asset and the right to control the use of the identifiable asset. Service components are excluded from the lease liability.
On initial recognition, lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the future lease payments, discounted using an alternative interest rate.
The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The lease liability is re-measured when there is a change in the underlying contractual cash flows due to changes in an index or an interest rate, if there is a change to the estimate of a residual value guarantee, or if there is a change to the assessment as to whether it is reasonably certain that a purchase option, an extension option, or a termination option will be exercised.
On initial recognition, the right-of-use asset is measured at cost, corresponding to the value of the lease liability adjusted for prepaid lease payments plus any initial direct costs and estimated costs for dismantling, removing, and restoring or similar and less any discounts or other types of incentive payments granted by the lessor.
On subsequent recognition, the asset is measured at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and the useful life of the asset. Depreciation charges are recognized in the income statement on a straight-line basis.
The right-of-use asset is adjusted for any changes in the lease liability due to changes in the lease terms or changes in the contractual cash flows because of changes in an index or an interest rate.
Lease assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated lease term.
The lease asset and the lease liability are presented separately by the group and the parent company in the balance sheet.
The group and the parent company have elected not to recognize right-of-use assets of low value and short-term leases in the balance sheet and instead to recognize lease payments concerning these leases in the income statement on a straightline basis.
When the group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sub-lease separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, not with reference to the underlying asset.
Investment properties are measured initially at fair value, which reflects market conditions at the reporting date. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise, including the corresponding tax effect.
Investment properties are derecognized either when they have been disposed of or when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from their disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss in the period of derecognition.
Transfers are made to (or from) investment property only when there is a change in use. For a transfer from investment property to owner-occupied property, the deemed cost for subsequent accounting is the fair value at the date of change in use. If owner-occupied property becomes an investment property, the Group accounts for such property in accordance with the policy stated under "Property, plant and equipment" up to the date of change in use. At the same date the property is evaluated to fair value and the adjustment between the cost value and fair value is recognized as other comprehensive income.
Investments in subsidiaries are measured using the equity method.
Investments in subsidiaries are measured at the proportionate share of the entities' net asset value calculated in accordance with the Group's accounting policies minus or plus unrealized intra-group profits and losses and plus or minus any residual value of positive or negative goodwill determined in accordance with the purchase method of accounting.
Investments in subsidiaries with negative net asset values are measured at DKK 0, and any amounts owed by such entities are written down insofar as the amount receivable is considered irrecoverable. If the Parent Company has a legal or constructive obligation to cover a deficit that exceeds the amount owed, the remaining amount is recognized under "Provisions".
Net revaluation of investments in subsidiaries is recognized in the net revaluation reserve according to the equity method under equity where the carrying amount exceeds cost. Dividends from subsidiaries which are expected to be declared before the annual report of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S is adopted are not taken to the net revaluation reserve.
Development projects are tested annually for evidence of impairment.
Deferred tax assets are tested for impairment annually and are written down if it is deemed likely that the deferred tax asset cannot be utilized against tax on future income or set off against deferred tax liabilities in the same legal tax entity and jurisdiction. This assessment considers the type and nature of the recognized deferred tax asset, the estimated period for set-off of the deferred tax asset etc.
Other long-term assets are tested for impairment once a year. When there is evidence that an asset may be impaired, the recoverable amount of that asset is determined. The recoverable amount is the higher of the net selling price of the
asset and the net present value of the expected future net cash flows.
An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds the recoverable amount of the asset or its cash-generating unit. Impairment losses are recognized in the statement of incomprehensive income under production costs, development costs, sales and distribution costs and administrative expenses. However, impairment losses in respect of goodwill are recognized in a separate line in the statement of incomprehensive income.
Impairment losses on other long-term assets are reversed to the extent that changes have occurred in the assumptions and estimates based on which the impairment loss was recognized. Impairment losses are reversed only to the extent that the new carrying amount of the asset does not exceed the carrying amount it would have had net of amortization and net of depreciation if the impairment loss had not been recognized.
Inventories are measured at cost using the FIFO method.
Goods for resale, raw materials and consumables are measured at cost, comprising the purchase price plus delivery costs. Finished goods and work in progress are measured at cost, comprising the cost of raw materials, consumables, direct labor costs and production overheads. Production overheads comprise indirect materials and labor costs as well as maintenance and depreciation of production machinery, factory buildings and equipment and factory administration and management costs.
Where the net realizable value is lower than cost, inventories are written down to such lower value. The net realizable value of inventories is determined as the selling price less costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale and is determined considering marketability, obsolescence, and developments in the expected selling price.
Receivables are measured at amortized cost. A credit loss allowance is made upon initial recognition based on historical observed default rates adjusted for forward looking estimates (simplified 'expected credit loss' model). The cost of the credit loss allowance is included in sales and distribution costs. A loss is considered realized when it is certain that we will not recover the receivable, e.g., in case of bankruptcy or similar.
Deposits are measured at fair value cost and consist of rent deposits. The leases are non-cancellable for a period of 0–9 years.
Prepayments include expenses paid in respect of subsequent fiscal years.
Dividend proposed for the year is recognized as a liability at the time it is adopted at the Annual General Meeting. The amount proposed as dividend for the year is stated as a separate item in equity.
The translation reserve in the consolidated financial statements includes accumulated foreign exchange differences arising on the translation of the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries from their functional currency to the presentation currency of the Group.
The revaluation reserve contains adjustment occurred during transfers to (or from) investment property when there is a change in use, or the investment property is sold.
Current tax payable and receivable is recognized in the balance sheet as tax computed on the taxable income for the year, adjusted for tax on the taxable income of prior years and for tax paid on account.
Deferred tax is measured using the balance sheet liability method, providing for all temporary differences between the carrying amount and the tax base of assets and liabilities. However, the following items are not recognized: goodwill not deductible for tax purposes and other items – apart from business combinations – where temporary differences have arisen at the date of acquisition that neither affect profit/(loss) nor taxable income.
Deferred tax assets, including the tax base of tax loss carryforwards, are recognized as other non-current assets at the value at which they are expected to be utilized, either by elimination against tax on future earnings or by set-off against deferred tax liabilities within the same legal tax entity and jurisdiction.
The deferred tax charge is adjusted in respect of elimination of unrealized intra-group profits and losses.
Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rules and at the tax rates that will apply under the legislation enacted at the balance sheet date in the relevant countries when the deferred tax is expected to crystallize in the form of current tax. Changes in deferred tax as a result of changes in tax rates are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income.
Under the joint taxation rules, Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S, as the management company, becomes liable vis-à-vis the tax authorities for the subsidiaries' income taxes as the subsidiaries pay their joint taxation contributions. Joint taxation contributions payable and receivable are recognized in the balance sheet under receivables from/payables to subsidiaries.
Provisions comprise estimated commitments regarding warranty obligations and restructuring etc.
Provisions are recognized when, as a result of events occurring before or at the balance sheet date, the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. Provisions are measured at Management's best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the balance sheet date.
A provision for warranties is recognized when the underlying products or services are sold. The provision is based on historical warranty data.
Restructuring costs are recognized as liabilities when a detailed, formal restructuring plan has been announced not later than the balance sheet date to the parties affected by the plan.
Payments relating to defined contribution plans under which the Group regularly pays fixed contributions into an independent pension fund are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are earned, and outstanding payments are recognized in the balance sheet under other payables.
There are no defined benefit plans within the Group.
Payables to credit institutions are recognized at the date of borrowing at fair value (corresponding to the net proceeds received) less transaction costs paid. In subsequent periods, payables to credit institutions are measured at amortized cost, corresponding to the capitalized value using the effective interest rate method. Accordingly, the difference between the proceeds and the nominal value (capital loss) is recognized in profit or loss over the term of the loan.
Other liabilities are measured at net realizable value.
Prepayments from customers include payments received which relate to subsequent financial years.
The cash flow statement shows cash flows for the year, broken down by operating, investing, and financing activities, and the year's changes in cash and cash equivalents as well as cash and cash equivalents at the beginning and end of the year.
The cash flow effect of acquisitions and disposals of entities is shown separately under cash flows from investing activities. Cash flows from acquisitions of entities are recognized in the cash flow statement from the date of acquisition, and cash flows from disposals of entities are recognized up to the date of disposal.
Cash flows from operating activities are determined as profit/(loss) for the year adjusted for non-cash operating items, changes in working capital, interest received and paid, including interest on lease liabilities, and income taxes paid.
Cash flows from investing activities comprise payments in connection with acquisitions and disposals of entities and activities; acquisitions and disposals of intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, investment properties and other non-current assets; and acquisitions and disposals of securities that are not recognized as cash and cash equivalents.
Cash flow from financing activities comprise changes in the size or composition of the share capital and associated expenses as well as raisings of loans, repayment of interest-bearing debt, including repayment of lease liabilities, purchase and sale of treasury shares, and payment of dividends as well as dividend received from subsidiaries.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise deposits with credit institutions and cash.
Segment information is prepared in accordance with the Group's accounting policies and internal financial reporting.
The Group presents two reportable segments: the prepress market and the property rental Selandia Park.
Segment revenue, segment expenses, segment assets and liabilities are those items that are directly attributable to the individual segment or can be allocated to the segment on a reliable basis.
Segment assets are those assets that are employed directly by the segment in its operating activities, including non-current assets, inventories, trade receivables, other receivables, prepayments and cash and cash equivalents.
Segment liabilities are those liabilities that result from the segments' operating activities, including trade liabilities, borrowings, lease liabilities and other liabilities.
Additional segment information is stated regarding consolidated revenue broken down by geographic market.
