Report of the Board of Directors

Important developments of the first 6 months

Revenue is higher than the first half-year of 2016 (173.5 million euro compared to 164.4 million euro prior year) thanks to a strong order backlog at the beginning of the year.

The higher activity level resulted in a higher operating profit (+17.3%).

The financial result was in line with prior year. The tax percentage is higher than last year due to disallowed expenses.

All the items described above resulted in a 1.6 million euro increase in the Groups net income attributable to the shareholders (from 9.5 million euro to 11.1 million euro).

On February 1, 2017 JENSEN-GROUP decided to acquire one of its major German suppliers. This backward integration improves our ability to control the quality of the product and to react faster to market conditions. As this transaction represents only a change from third party supplier to internal supplier, it does not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated figures.

0n 11 May, 2017, the JENSEN-GROUP increased its shareholding in TOLON GLOBAL MAKINA Sanyi Ve Tikaret Sirketi A.S., Turkey, by 6.33% to 36.33%. The JENSEN-GROUP has the option to acquire up to 49% of the shares within a period of three years.

Outlook for the remaining 6 months

At June 30, 2017 the order backlog increased by 15% compared to the backlog at June 30, 2016. Excluding orders that will not be delivered in 2017 and considering the finished goods and work in progress, production backlog is 18% higher than as at June 2016.

The most important risk factors remain rapid changes in demand, availability of financing to our customers, high exchange rate volatility and fluctuating raw material, energy and transport prices.

Important transactions with related parties

There were no important transactions with related parties.

Events after balance sheet date

There are no significant after balance sheet events.

Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements

The Group markets its products and services under the JENSEN brand and is a leading supplier to the heavy-duty market. The product range varies from transportation and handling systems, tunnel washers, separators, feeders, ironers and folders to complete project management for fully-equipped and professionally managed industrial laundries. The JENSEN-GROUP has operations in 24 countries and distributes its products in more than 40 countries. Worldwide, the JENSEN-GROUP employs approximately 1,650 people.

JENSEN-GROUP N.V. (hereafter "The Company") is incorporated in Belgium. Its registered office is at Bijenstraat 6, 9051 Sint-Denijs-Westrem, Belgium.

The JENSEN-GROUP shares are quoted on the Euronext Stock Exchange.

This condensed consolidated interim financial information is for the first half-year ended June 30, 2017. These interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting", as adopted by the EU. The accounting policies used in the preparation of the interim financial statements are consistent with those used in the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016.

This condensed consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the 2016 annual IFRS consolidated financial statements.

This condensed consolidated interim financial information has not been audited by the external auditor.

The policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented.

Taxation is determined annually and, accordingly, the tax charge for the interim period involves making an estimate of the likely effective tax rate for the year. The calculation of the effective tax rate is based on an estimate of the tax charge or credit for the year

expressed as a percentage of the expected accounting profit or loss. This percentage is then applied to the interim result, and the tax is recognized rateably over the year as a whole.

This condensed consolidated interim financial information has been prepared in accordance with those IFRS standards and IFRIC interpretations issued and effective or issued and early adopted as at 30 June 2017 which have been adopted by the European Union, as follows:

The following interpretation and amendments to standards are mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2017 (however not yet subjected to EU endorsement):

  • Amendments to IAS 7, Statement of cash flows.
  • Amendments to IAS 12,'Income taxes' on Recognition of deferred tax assets for unrealised losses.
  • Annual improvements 2014-2016 applicable to three standards of which changes on IFRS 1 et IAS 28 are applicable as of 1 January 2018 and changes on IFRS 12 are applicable as of 1 January 2017.

The following interpretation and amendments to standards are mandatory since the financial year beginning 1 January 2016, however not yet subjected to EU endorsement):

  • IFRS 14 'Regulatory deferral accounts', effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016.
  • Amendments to IFRS 10, 'Consolidated financial statements' and IAS 28,'Investments in associates and joint ventures', for which the effective date still has to be determined.

The following new standards and amendments to standards have been issued, but are not mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2017 and have been endorsed by the European Union:

  • IFRS 9 'Financial instruments', effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018.
  • IFRS 15 'Revenue from contracts with customers'. Companies using IFRS will be required to apply the revenue standard for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018.

The following new standards, amendments and interpretation to standards have been issued, but are not mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2017 and have not been endorsed by the European Union:

  • IFRS 16 'Leases' (effective 1 January 2019).
  • IFRS 17 'Insurance contracts' (effective 1 January 2021).
  • Amendments to IFRS 15, 'Revenue from contracts with customers' Clarifications (effective 1 January 2018).

  • IFRIC 22,' Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration (effective 1 January 2018).
  • IFRIC 23, 'Uncertainty over income tax treatments' (effective 1 January 2019).

The Group is currently assessing the impact of the new requirements.

This condensed consolidated interim financial information is prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets, and financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.

This condensed consolidated interim financial information is prepared on an accrual basis and on the assumption that the Group is a going concern and will continue in operation for the foreseeable future.

The preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in the accounting policies.

Note 2 – Changes in accounting policies and other changes, and their impact on equity

There are no changes in the accounting policies compared with the accounting policies used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements as per December 31, 2016.

Implementation IFRS 15

The new IFRS standard on revenue recognition, IFRS 15, is effective as from January 1, 2018. In order to be able to estimate the impact of the implementation of the new revenue recognition standard IFRS 15, management and the auditor have reviewed the contractual framework in which the business is conducted. The JENSEN-GROUP supplies single machines, systems and integrated solutions. In all these contracts the JENSEN-GROUP always delivers a combined item, consisting of goods and services like installation and not individual goods and services when considering a single contract. As such the Group has always only one single performance obligation. In addition, we create customer made solutions with no alternative use and payment guarantees for work to date. Based on this, Management comes to the conclusion, and the Auditor has agreed, that the Group can continue to recognize revenues over time and apply the percentage of completion method.

Note 3 – Segment reporting

The total laundry industry can be split up into consumer, commercial and heavy-duty laundry. The JENSEN-GROUP entities serve end-customers in the Heavy Duty laundry segment. They follow the same process. The JENSEN-GROUP sells its products and services under the JENSEN brand through own sales and service companies and independent distributors worldwide. In this way the JENSEN-GROUP operates only in one single segment.

The following table presents revenue and non-current asset information based on the Group's geographical areas:
