The previous year has been tough for the entire retail industry, and Komplett has been no exception. During this period, we have consolidated our position as the leading online-first electronics retailer in the Nordics and doubled our market share with the acquisition of NetOnNet.
Supplier negotiations to realise synergies following the combination with NetOnNet are progressing as planned. We have also identified and implemented efficiency gains across the Group, as well as cost-reducing initiatives in Sweden. Due to our rapid and early responses to market changes, we continue to maintain our industry-leading cost position despite lower sales volumes.
During 2022 we have significantly strengthened the Group's financial position. In December, we secured new longterm credit facilities and completed a private placement of new shares in the amount of NOK 1 billion. The net proceeds from the private placement and funds made available under the new credit facilities enabled us to refinance the existing bridge loan and continue executing our strategy as a leading online-first electronics and IT products retailer. In parallel, we have improved our working capital by NOK 380 million as a result of the factoring agreement we entered into in August.
The market challenges seen in 2022 resulted in inventory build-up and price pressure across the industry. As an immediate response to these challenges, we began the process of reducing our inventory, and during 2022, we succeeded in reducing our inventory by NOK 600 million. Supported by good cost control and a healthy stock composition, improved gross margin performance is expected going forward.
As we enter 2023, we expect consumer demand to remain challenging, but over time, online trade is expected to return to its attractive growth trajectory. The consumption peak during Covid-19 has led to a larger installed base of consumer electronics which is expected to lead to increased demand when consumers seek to replace their current technology.
With a solid and scalable business model in place, our long-term profitability will benefit from synergy realisation and other initiatives to reduce operating costs. We are also confident that our online-first business model will serve us well and partly outweigh the negative effects of market inflation. As inventory positions and market prices normalise across the industry, we expect our gross margin to continue to develop positively.
Moving forward, we will continue as we have until now – to meet challenges head-on and to identify the most advantageous solutions for the long term.
Lars Olav Olaussen, CEO

Size per segment in Q4 2022

During the quarter, Komplett made good progress in its efforts to secure a healthy inventory position, improve working capital and reduce operating expenses. Supplier negotiations to realise synergies following the combination with NetOnNet are progressing as planned.
In the fourth quarter, top line financial performance continued to be impacted by reduced consumer sentiment. Total revenue for the Group amounted to NOK 4 657 million compared with NOK 3 292 million in the same period of 2021. NetOnNet contributed NOK 1 821 million of the revenue in the quarter. Underlying volume decline led to an adjusted EBIT result for the Group of NOK 70 million, corresponding to an adjusted EBIT margin of 1.5 per cent. During the quarter, the Group's inventory position has reached a healthy level. This has translated into improved gross margins in both the B2C and B2B segments compared with previous quarters.
For 2022 in total, the Group increased revenues to NOK 14.6 billion, corresponding to a 32.4 per cent growth from the year before, including NOK 4 784 million from NetOnNet. Adjusted EBIT for the full-year period came in at NOK 87 million, compared with NOK 388 million one year earlier. Going into 2023, the top line continues to be impacted by a challenging market while a more positive trend is expected on the gross margin.
NetOnNet was consolidated into Komplett's financial statements as of 1 April 2022 and has been reported as a part of the B2C segment as of Q2 2022.
The Group's total revenue increased by 41.5 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2022, from NOK 3 292 million to NOK 4 657 million. The increase resulted from the combination of Komplett and NetOnNet, where NetOnNet contributed NOK 1 821 million in revenue. Excluding the contribution from NetOnNet, the Group's revenue decreased by 13.9 per cent mainly due to the challenging market conditions for online retail across the Nordics.
The impact of weaker market conditions is most evident in the B2C segment. In the quarter, this segment continued to be impacted by market cyclicality characterised by more conservative spending patterns and temporary fluctuations in consumer preferences. The share of online retail trade is returning to pre-pandemic trends but continues to grow in a long-term perspective.
For 2022 in total, the Group reported revenues of NOK 14 618 million compared with NOK 11 043 million in 2021. The increase was driven by NetOnNet, which contributed NOK 4 784 million in revenue.
Gross profit for the fourth quarter increased from NOK 421 million last year to NOK 597 million in 2022. NetOnNet represented NOK 270 million of the gross profit.
Despite volume decline, the overall gross margin reached its highest quarterly level in 2022 at 12.8 per cent in the fourth quarter, which is the same level as in the same period in 2021 and trending positive compared with earlier quarters driven by material inventory improvements.
For the full-year period, gross profit amounted to NOK 1 794 million, with a gross margin of 12.3 per cent, compared with 13.2 per cent one year earlier.
Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortisation, but excluding one-off costs, totalled NOK 528 million in the fourth quarter, of which NetOnNet represented NOK 219 million and amortisation of aqcuired customer value accounted for NOK 12 million. Operating expenses in the comparable period of 2021 totalled NOK 302 million.
Excluding effects from acquired companies and amortisation of acquired customer value, operating expenses in the fourth quarter 2022 totalled NOK 298 million. This corresponds to a NOK 4 million, or 1 per cent, like for like decrease from the corresponding period of 2021, despite increased inflationary pressure.
With an online-first business model the Group is less
exposed to market inflation, such as energy costs. Electricity expenses for the Komplett Group (ex. NetOnNet and Ironstone) totalled NOK 4.1 million in the quarter compared with NOK 2.0 million in the same period last year.
For the full year, the Group (ex. NetOnNet and Ironstone) reported electricity expenses of NOK 13.1 million compared with NOK 6.6 million last year.
Total operating expenses for 2022 amounted to NOK 1 707 million, resulting in an operating cost percentage of 11.7 per cent for the full-year period.
Adjusted EBIT amounted to NOK 70 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, including EBIT from NetOnNet of NOK 51 million, compared with NOK 118 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The reduction was mainly driven by a volume decline in a softer market. This resulted in an adjusted EBIT margin of 1.5 per cent in the fourth quarter, compared with 3.6 per cent in the same quarter of last year.
This gave an adjusted EBIT for 2022 of NOK 87 million, corresponding to an adjusted EBIT margin of 0.6 per cent for the year, down from 3.5 per cent in 2021.
One-off costs amounted to NOK 20 million for the quarter of which NOK 12 million were related to initiatives to reduce operating costs in NetOnNet by approximately SEK 70-90 million at a gross level with effect from 2023. The remaining NOK 8 million were related to changes to the accounting principles for inventories in NetOnNet to align them with those of the Komplett Group.
For the full-year period, one-off costs totalled NOK 80 million, and were mainly related to the acquisition of NetOnNet.
Net cash flow from operating activities amounted to positive NOK 560 million in the fourth quarter, compared with NOK 53 million in the same period last year. The increase was primarily driven by inventory reductions as well as NOK 148 million from the factoring agreement entered into in the third quarter.
Full-year cash flow from operating activities totalled NOK 1 102 million, compared with NOK 65 million in 2021. For the full-year period, inventory has been reduced by NOK 598 million from last year's position including NetOnNet pro forma, and factoring has yielded net working capital improvements of around NOK 380 million.
Cash flow used for investing activities was NOK 77 million, compared with NOK 14 million in the same quarter last year. For the full-year period, cash flow used for investments was NOK 1 701 million, including the acquisition of NetOnNet.
Cash flow used for financing activities was NOK 419 million during the fourth quarter, compared with NOK 30 million in the same quarter prior year. Downpayment of the bridge facility in the range of NOK 1 billion, and the equity issue with net proceeds of NOK 987 million were the main drivers.
Cash flow from financing in 2022 was positive by NOK 706 million, representing a cash inflow, compared with a net inflow of NOK 36 million in 2021.

Komplett has strengthened its financial position in the fourth quarter, and liquidity is good. On 15 November 2022 the company completed a private placement of 67 800 000 new shares in the company at a subscription price of NOK 14.75 per share raising gross proceeds of NOK 1 000 050 000.
The company also secured a new revolving credit facility in the amount of NOK 1 300 million and an overdraft facility in the amount of NOK 400 million (increased to NOK 500 million in Q4 each year). In addition there is an existing consumer finance facility of SEK 100 million. The agreed terms for the new facilities include covenants for a minimum equity ratio of 30 per cent and a ratio of net debt to EBITDA (pro forma and adjusted for certain exceptional items) for Q4 2022, Q1 2023 and Q2 2023 of 4.5x, 4.0x and 3.75x respectively and 3.0x thereafter (3.5x in Q3). The new facilities will become effective early in Q1 2023.
The company will use the net proceeds from the private placement and funds to be made available under the new facilities to repay the NOK 1 500 million bridge loan, which was obtained in connection with the company's combination with NetOnNet AB, announced 9 February 2022, and which matures in April 2023. The new loan facilities will replace the company's existing overdraft facilities of NOK 500 million, as well as its two existing revolving credit facilities of NOK 500 million and SEK 650 million.
At 31 December 2022, NOK 49 million of the credit facilities and NOK 576 million of the revolving credit facility were utilised. Including available cash of NOK 149 million, the liquidity reserve was NOK 1 333 million at the end of 2022 compared with NOK 434 million one year earlier.
The equity ratio was 46.4 per cent at the end of the fourth quarter compared with 23.2 per cent in the same period of 2021.
Net interest-bearing debt at 31 December was NOK 876 million excluding IFRS 16 and NOK 1 434 million including IFRS 16. The leverage ratio (NIBD / LTM EBITDA¹) of 3.7 at the close of the fourth quarter of 2022.
Comparable figures for the same period last year were an net interest-bearing debt including IFRS 16 of NOK 876 million, which gave a leverage ratio of 1.7x.


On 15 November 2022 the Company completed a private placement of 67 800 000 new shares in the company at a subscription price of NOK 14.75 per share raising gross proceeds of NOK 1 000 050 000.
The company also secured a new revolving credit facility in the amount of NOK 1 300 million and an overdraft facility in the amount of NOK 400 million (increased to NOK 500 million in Q4 each year). The new facilities will become effective early in Q1 2023.
After quarter-end, a subsequent offering was completed and the Company received valid subscriptions for a total of 43 582 shares, at a subscription price of NOK 14.75. Following the issuance of the 43 582 offer shares, the Company's share capital will be NOK 70 136 464.40, divided into 175 341 161 shares, each with a nominal value of NOK 0.40.
The Komplett Group is subject to several risks, including market and competition risks, operational and financial risks, such as currency, interest, credit, and liquidity risks, as well as IT security risks. The board and executive management are continuously monitoring the Group's risk exposure, and the Group strives to take an active approach to risk management and internal control processes. Below is a summary of the key risks for the Group over the next six months.
The outbreak of war in Europe has led to increased macroeconomic uncertainty and lower disposable income. Higher food and energy prices, overall inflation and increased interest rates involve a risk for more conservative spending patterns among consumers, especially for capital intensive goods.
The geopolitical situation may also impact the costs and availability of raw materials and other input factors. The potential shortage in product availability could have an adverse effect on the Group's ability to continue its sales growth trajectory. The Group focuses on maintaining its close cooperation with key suppliers and expanding visibility to ensure timely deliveries going forward.
The Group operates in an intensely competitive industry, and market headwinds may continue to lead to inventory build-up, resulting in increased price pressure in the market. The long-term growth trajectory of the online share of total retail trade sustains, but temporary fluctuations may impact the Group's performance in the short term.
As the Group operates online, it is vulnerable to hacking and cybercrimes on critical applications and its websites. Although having systems in place to identify and block external attacks, the Group will likely be subject to new and smarter attempts of unauthorised access that expose a risk to the business.
Risks and uncertainties must be taken into consideration when looking at the outlook comments below. For an additional explanation regarding risks and uncertainties, please refer to the prospectus from the subsequent offering dated 4 January 2023, section 2, and note 4 in the Company's Annual Report for 2021.
The previous year has proven to be a challenging period for the entire retail industry. Sales figures for January 2023 indicate that the top line decline is continuing into the first half-year of 2023. Over time, market demand and the share of online trade is expected to return to its attractive growth trajectory.
Compared with the preceeding quarter, the gross margin trended positive in the fourth quarter. The Group expects its gross margin performance to continue to improve going forward supported by good cost control and a healthy inventory position. Supported by a solid and scalable business model, the Group's profitability will also benefit from synergy realisation and other initiatives to reduce operating costs.
The combination with NetOnNet allows for significant economies of scale. Execution of the integration continues to progress as planned, and supplier negotiations are yielding the expected synergies. Cost synergies, mainly related to supplier terms, of at least NOK 200 million on

an annual basis are expected to have full effect within 24 months of the completion of the transaction, of which an annual run rate of NOK 100 million is expected as from 2023.
The Group has succeeded in maintaining an industry-leading cost position, and identified and implemented further efficiency gains and cost-reducing initiatives. In NetOn-Net, initiatives have been launched to reduce operating costs by approximately SEK 70-90 million at a gross level with effect from 2023.
The Komplett Group expects annual capital expenditures related to maintenance at the level of NOK 80-100 million for the period 2023-2025. In addition, expansion of supply chain facilities and upgrades to the Group's IT systems involve planned investments in the range of NOK 350-400
million in the coming years. The programme is flexible, without any committed agreements, and the board will evaluate the capex programme based on the market development.
The Group has a policy of distributing 60-80 per cent of net profit adjusted for one-off and special items as annual dividend but expects no dividend to be paid for the financial year 2022.
In sum, the Group has quickly responded to the market challenges seen in 2022. The Group enters 2023 with a healthy stock composition, a stronger balance sheet and strong cost control. Supported by its highly competitive, scalable and cost-efficient business model, the Komplett Group is in pole position to benefit from a market recovery.




Operating revenue for the B2C segment, including revenue from NetOnNet of NOK 1 821 million, increased to NOK 3 409 million, compared with NOK 1 957 million for the same period in 2021. Adjusted for the contribution from NetOnNet, revenues declined mainly as a result of more conservative consumer spending and a weaker market for consumer electronics. Sales during Black Week and Christmas shopping showed roughly the same pattern as the quarter as a whole.
In addition, the consumption peak during the Covid-19 pandemic has led to a temporary market saturation. A higher installed product base of consumer electronics is expected to lead to increased demand when consumers seek to replace their currenttechnology.
In local currency, the operations in Norway and Sweden excluding NetOnNet had a revenue decline of 15.6 per cent and 19.1 per cent, respectively. Denmark, which represents approximately 2 per cent of the B2C sales volume, had a decline of 16.9 per cent.
The overall gross profit for the B2C segment amounted to NOK 469 million in the fourth quarter, compared with NOK 277 million in the same quarter in 2021. This increase is a result of the combination of Komplett and NetOnNet, where NetOnNet contributed NOK 270 million.
Gross margin ended at 13.8 per cent compared with 14.1 per cent in the same quarter of 2021. Compared with the preceding quarter, the gross margin is trending positive as a result of improved inventory level.
B2C operating expenses were NOK 418 million in the fourth quarter, including NOK 219 million from NetOnNet, compared with NOK 208 million for the same period in 2021. Because of the underlying reduction in sales volume, the operating cost percentage increased to 12.3 per cent, from 10.6 per cent in the same quarter of last year. Without NetOnNet, the Group's operating expenses were NOK 199 million, corresponding to a net reduction of NOK 9 million.
EBIT in the fourth quarter amounted to NOK 51 million, including a contribution of NOK 31 million from NetOnNet, compared with NOK 69 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. This marks a clear improvement from the negative EBIT result reported in the previous quarters, and contributed to a positive EBIT result for the full-year period of NOK 12 million.
For the fourth quarter, the EBIT margin came in at 1.5 per cent compared with a margin of 3.5 per cent in the prior-year period. The decline is mainly due to lower sales volume and price pressure in the market.

Operating revenue for the B2B segment in the fourth quarter amounted to NOK 413 million, compared with NOK 436 million for the same period in 2021. The B2B segment experienced lower demand from smaller businesses in the SME segment, which are displaying similar behaviours to that of consumers in the B2C segment. This had a negative impact on revenue growth for the B2B segment.
Revenue was to some extent also impacted by constraints on Apple products due to Covid-19 lockdowns at the Apple factory in China, but the impact was less than in the previous quarter.
In local currency, the operation in Norway delivered growth of 0.9 per cent, Sweden had a revenue decline of 7.5 per cent.
For the full-year period, the B2B segment reported revenue growth of 5.7 per cent in 2022 on top of the prior-year growth of 18.8 per cent.
Gross profit was NOK 78 million in the fourth quarter, compared with NOK 82 million in the same quarter of 2021.
Despite a net sales decline, the gross margin came in at 19.0 per cent, which represents an improvement compared with 18.8 per cent in the prior-year period. Relative to the previous quarter, the gross margin improved by 2.9 percentage points as a result of improved inventory levels.
Total operating expenses in the quarter were NOK 41 million compared with NOK 42 million in the same quarter in 2021.
Operating expenses relative to the operating revenue increased to 10.0 per cent in the quarter compared with 9.7 per cent in the same quarter in 2021.
EBIT for the fourth quarter was NOK 37 million, compared with NOK 40 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The EBIT result showed an improvement compared with the previous quarters.
The EBIT margin was 9.0 per cent compared with 6.0 per cent in the preceding quarter and 9.1 per cent in the same quarter of last year.

Market demand impacted by consumer Distribution sentiment, improved operating expenses

Revenues for the Distribution segment amounted to NOK 832 million in the fourth quarter, compared with NOK 896 million for the same period in 2021.
An overall weaker consumer sentiment impacted demand also in the Distribution segment.
In local currency, the operation in Norway delivered decline of 6.3 per cent, Sweden had a revenue decline of 13.9 per cent.
For the full-year period, the Distribution segment reported revenue growth of 2.7 per cent in 2022 on top of the prior-year growth of 28.8 per cent.
Gross profit was NOK 47 million in the fourth quarter compared with NOK 59 million in the same quarter of 2021.
The gross margin came down by 0.9 percentage points to 5.7 per cent. The gross margin was impacted by lower growth among smaller retailers and a less favourable product mix.
Operating expenses totalled NOK 28 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared with NOK 32 million in the same period in 2021. Measured as a percentage of revenue, the operating expenses improved from 3.6 per cent last year to 3.4 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2022.
The EBIT result fell back to NOK 19 million, compared with NOK 27 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.
This gave an EBIT margin of 2.3 per cent compared with 3.0 per cent for the same period in 2021. The decrease is mainly explained by lower gross margins and partly offset by solid cost control.

Other operating revenue is related to income from royalties and totalled NOK 3 million in the quarter. IFRS 16 effects related to NetOnNet led to positive operating expenses (i.e. an operating income) of NOK 26 million in the quarter, and depreciation increased correspondingly. Total depreciation and amortisation amounted to NOK 55 million, of which NOK 12 million is related to amortisation of acquired customer value. Amortisation of acquired customer value is expected to amount to approximately NOK 12 million per quarter going forward.
In sum, this gave an adjusted EBIT result of negative NOK 37 million, compared with negative NOK 17 million in the prior-year period. During the fourth quarter of 2022, a total of NOK 20 million were booked as one-off costs. These one-off costs were related to cost reduction initiatives in NetOnNet and changes made to the accounting principles of NetOnNet in order to align them with those of the Komplett Group.
Net financial expenses were NOK 41 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with NOK 7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase in net financials was mainly driven by interest paid on the bridge loan facility.
"Other" represents Group costs not allocated to the operating segments B2C, B2B, and Distribution. This applies when costs are difficult to allocate fairly between the segments.
Typical cost elements under this segment include management costs and group strategic initiatives. The different effects of IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards), especially IFRS 16, are not part of the operational measures and are excluded from the operating segments B2C, B2B, and Distribution.
For additional explanation, please refer to note 3 – Segment Information in this report.
Total operating revenue was NOK 4 657 million in the fourth quarter, corresponding to an increase of 41.5 per cent compared with NOK 3 292 million in the same period last year. NetOnNet has been consolidated into the figures from 1 April 2022 and contributed NOK 1 821 million in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Costs of goods sold totalled NOK 4 059 million in the fourth quarter of which NetOnNet accounted for NOK 1 552 million, compared with NOK 2 871 million in the same period last year.
Operating expenses were NOK 548 million in the fourth quarter compared with NOK 305 million in the same period last year. The increase was driven by operating expenses from NetOnNet of NOK 238 million. Depreciation and amortisation totalled NOK 76 million, of which NOK 12 million is related to amortisation of acquired customer value.
The operating result (EBIT) for the fourth quarter of the year amounted to NOK 50 million, compared with a positive result of NOK 115 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The EBIT included a positive contribution of NOK 31 million from NetOnNet.
Net financial expenses in the fourth quarter totalled NOK 41 million, of which NetOnNet accounted for a net expense of NOK 5 million, compared with NOK 7 million in the same period last year. The increase is driven by NOK 17 million in interest costs related to the bridge facility.
Tax income was NOK 47 million in the fourth quarter, compared with a tax expense of NOK 27 million in the same period last year. In the fourth quarter it has been recognised a tax deduction of NOK 47 million related to losses from Marked Gruppen for previous years.
Profit from discontinued operations of NOK 4 million was related to the repayment of a supplier guarantee from the bankruptcy estate of the former subsidiary Comtech GmbH. Full year effect is NOK 10 million.
Profit for the period came in at NOK 59 million, compared with NOK 82 million in the fourth quarter last year. NetOnNet represented a profit of NOK 20 million. The decline was driven by pressure on gross margins, and partly offset by the non-recurring tax income.
Cash flow from operating activities amounted to a positive NOK 560 million compared with NOK 53 million in the same period last year. The positive cash flow from
operating activities was driven by the factoring agreement entered into in the third quarter, which has yielded net working capital improvements of around NOK 148 million in the fourth quarter and NOK 380 million since it was effectuated.
Cash flow used in investing activities activities amounted to NOK 77 million, compared with a cash outflow of NOK 14 million in the same period last year.
Cash flow used in financing activities amounted to NOK 419 million in the fourth quarter, an increase from cash outflow of NOK 30 million in the same period last year. The increase is explained by the private placement during the quarter and downpayment of the bridge facility.
Non-current assets amounted to NOK 4 487 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2022, including NOK 416 million related to NetOnNet, compared with NOK 971 million in the same period last year. The addition were related to goodwill adjustment of NOK 1 699 million and NOK 1 355 million in other intangible assets.
Current assets amounted to NOK 3 046 million at the end of the fourth quarter this year, including NOK 1 250 million from NetOnNet, compared with NOK 2 498 million in the same period last year. The higher level was mainly related to augmented inventory levels, including NetOnNet's inventory position of NOK 948 million at the end of December 2022.
Total cash and cash equivalents amounted to NOK 149 million at the end of the quarter versus NOK 41 million over the same period last year.
Equity amounted to NOK 3 496 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2022, including NOK 488 million from NetOnNet, compared with NOK 806 million in the same period last year. The increased equity was mainly driven by increased share premium from the issuance of 67 800 000 new shares in a private placement completed in the fourth quarter. At year-end, the share capital of Komplett ASA is NOK 70 119 031.60, divided into 175 297 579 shares, each with a nominal value of NOK 0.40.
Total liabilities amounted to NOK 4 037 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2022, of which NetOnNet accounted for NOK 1 177 million, compared with NOK 2 663 million in the same period last year.

A long-term incentive program for members of Management, key employees and certain identified young talents was implemented as a share option program. The program has been adopted by the Board of Directors of Komplett ASA (the "Company") to reward employees by enabling them to acquire Shares of the Company.
The strike price for the options granted are based on the final Offer Price including a premium of 3% annually from grant date until the options are vested.
The program is measured at fair value at the date of the grant and the value of the issued options is expensed over the vesting period which in this cases gradually over three years after grant. The Black & Scholes option-pricing model have been used to calculate the fair value.
The cost of the employee share-based transaction is expensed over the average vesting period. The value of the issued options of the transactions that are settled with equity instruments (settled with the company's own shares) is recognised as salary and personnel cost in profit and loss and in other equity.
Social security tax on options is recorded as a liability and is recognised over the estimated vesting period.

* Canica held 100% of the preference shares and close to 100% of the ordinary shares. The theoretical loss/charge towards the result allocated to the holders of ordinary shares is an off market transaction, and the charge included above holds little meaning and is just theoretical. ** In May 2021 the shareholders meeting resolved a 1 to 5 split of the shares in the company. For the calculation of earnings per share the split is adjusted for retrospectively.
*** In connection with the acquisition of NetOnNet 4 April 2022, a total of 35 242 424 shares in Komplett were issued.
As earnings per share reflects a theoretical market transaction we believe that it gives more meaning to calculate earnings per share by ignoring the different classes of shares from the beginning and by ignoring new shares during the year.
