Letter to the shareholders
Resilience in a turbulent year – ready for growth
2025 was a volatile year marked by geopolitical instability, but the resilience of our business ensured progress. At the same time, the acquisition of Idé-Pro brings new opportunities for generating profitable growth during the period to 2030.
2025 was an eventful year, but also a year marked by transformation and new opportunities.
Following a strong first quarter, we saw a slowing order intake in the second quarter, particularly for our own products, due to growing uncertainty in global markets. The situation gradually stabilised in the second half of the year, culminating in the Group's strongest quarter ever – in terms of both revenue and earnings.
For the year as a whole, revenue increased by 0.9% to DKK 2,948 million, and profit before tax (EBT) came to DKK 345 million for a margin of 11.7%. This was SP Group's strongest revenue and profit performance to date.
First six months under pressure – strong finish
The 2025 performance was largely driven by growth in subsupplier projects, while sales of own products fell by 10.1%. The decline was mainly

due to the postponement of large projects – not a loss of customers. This affected both revenue and earnings in 2025, as there is typically a higher margin on own products compared with subsupplier projects. Sales of ergonomic solutions, pharmaceutical packaging and livestock housing ventilation systems declined, while guide wire sales increased.
The subsupplier business is developing positively
The subsupplier business grew by 5.7% in 2025, largely thanks to new contracts and a broader customer base. At the same time, individual very large customers now represent a relatively smaller portion of total revenue. This reduces our dependence on a few large customers, strengthens our negotiating power and fosters a more resilient business.
The factories are very much focused on optimising and on reducing their complexity. Overall, all of them delivered improved results, allowing us to maintain earnings despite a lower level of activity for our own products. In 2025, we also signed a large number of customer agreements for large new projects – particularly within Healthcare – which we expect a lot from going forward.
As part of our efforts to increase cross-selling within the Group, we launched a new logo and visual identity in 2025 to create a more consistent brand expression and make it easier for our

customers to see that they are dealing with SP Group. We also stepped up our marketing efforts.
Bolstering Management
In 2025, we announced that Allan Malmos Jeppesen would take up the position as CFO as at 5 January 2026 and that Tilde Kejlhof would assume a new role in SP Group. The Executive Board now consists of me, CEO Lars Bering, CFO Allan Malmos Jeppesen and EVP Søren Ulstrup.
Allan Malmos Jeppesen brings extensive expertise in running an efficient finance organisation and will help ensure that we operate an effective administration in the future. Tilde Kejlhof will continue in a new role focused on strategic projects,
including realising the synergies from the acquisition of Idé-Pro.
New opportunities with Idé-Pro
We completed the acquisition of Idé-Pro BE Holding ApS at 17 December 2025. We are pleased that Idé-Pro decided to join the SP family, and the integration is already well underway.
Idé-Pro is a well-run business with more than 300 employees and three factories in Skive (DK), Glyngøre (DK) and Bangalore (India). Idé-Pro is one of Europe's strongest players within functional prototypes and low-volume injection moulding and has strong expertise in the area of expanded

PP/PS and high-pressure die casting of light metal components.
The core of the business is a digitalised platform and in-house production of moulding tools, which we plan to develop further. We have traditionally sourced most moulding tools from sub-suppliers, which has worked well. However, with increased in-house production of tools, we are now gaining greater flexibility and shorter time-to-market, which is an attractive parameter for many of our customers. Similarly, we will expand Idé-Pro's Indian setup and establish production based on new technologies.
More capacity for medical device production
In 2025, the Atlanta factory was still in the startup phase, and we installed a great number of
machines and related equipment during the year. Production has come off to a good start, and the factory continually receives many new orders. We will therefore continue to invest in machinery and equipment for the factory in the years ahead.
The factory start-up impacted our 2025 performance negatively to the tune of DKK 22 million, which was more than planned. However, this should be seen in light of the fact that the startup of the factory has proceeded much faster than expected. We have invested about DKK 200 million in the factory since its start-up, and in 2026 and 2027, we expect to invest an additional DKK 100 million overall.
In Poland, we have started the work to convert an existing factory into production of medical device
components. We are expanding with $1,700\mathrm{m}^2$ of cleanroom facilities, which will be used for already secured customer contracts. We expect to put the new facilities into operation in the second quarter of 2026.
Outlook for 2026
The geopolitical situation continues to be marked by instability, and the conflict in the Middle East has recently increased uncertainty. Provided that the situation normalises within a short time horizon, we expect growth in both revenue and earnings in 2026.
For 2026, we expect revenue growth in the $15 - 23\%$ range, of which Idé-Pro will account for about $15\%$, for an EBITDA margin of $19 - 21\%$ and an EBT margin of $11 - 13\%$, driven by new medical device projects, increased activity in the US, a full contribution from Idé-Pro and continued positive progress for both our own products and the subsupplier business.
We will also further strengthen our ESG efforts, focusing, among other things, on increasing the volume of recycled plastics in our production, improving the energy efficiency of our production facilities and transitioning to renewable energy. In the spring, Juelsmindehalvaens Solar, a solar park we have established with two local partners, will begin generating electricity.
Thank you
Lastly, a sincere thank you to our many loyal customers and partners for the trust you place in us. We are proud to serve a wide range of customers, often the leaders in their industries. We will continue to work determinedly to create value by turning complex requirements into competitive solutions.
Thank you to our shareholders for their support and trust in SP Group's long-term direction.
Last, but not least, thank you to all our talented employees for their dedicated efforts throughout the year. It is your skills, collaboration and team spirit that drive our development and enable us to deliver strong results.
Plastics are the material of the future, and we will continue to use all our creativity and know-how to create even better solutions for the benefit of all.

Outlook for 2026
SP Group
Outlook for 2026
SP Group is in a solid position to continue developing its business through the acquisition of Idé-Pro, capacity expansion in the US and Poland and new customer projects, particularly within Healthcare
SP Group is favourably positioned to grow its business. We are expanding capacity in Poland and the US and entering into agreements with customers for new projects. The integration of Idé-Pro into SP Group is progressing as planned, and the organisation is well underway in realising the synergies created by the acquisition.
We are pleased to note that we generated 2025 revenue in line with the 2024 level in a turbulent year with record revenue in the first quarter and slowing revenue in the second and third quarters. The fourth quarter reached an all-time high, and we are back on the growth track.
We will continue the strong commercial execution for our own products and thus increase sales, and we will sell more products to Healthcare in 2026. We will focus on new products and solutions for our customers, particularly in the Healthcare,
Cleantech and Foodtech industries. These new solutions are expected to contribute to growth and earnings.
SP Group is favourably positioned to offer advanced solutions for the green transition, and we expect continued growth in the wind turbine industry in the coming years.
SP Group will maintain strict cost control and pursue administrative simplifications and efficiency improvements, while continuing to prioritise a high level of investment in 2026. The largest investments will be made in our Healthcare activities, where we have made several contracts with existing and new customers. We will continue to invest massively in our new factory in Atlanta, USA, while also expanding our factories in Poland and India.
SP Group's focus on a regional setup close to our customers has not become less relevant in 2026, and we expect, with our new entity in India, to be able to create additional opportunities in the future.
Geopolitical uncertainty persists, with new political agendas continually emerging from multiple sides. Most recently, the war in the Middle East has brought increased uncertainty. Provided that the situation normalises within a relatively short time horizon, we expect growth in both revenue and earnings in 2026.
On the basis of the above, we expect revenue to grow by 15 - 23% in 2026, corresponding to revenue of DKK 3.4 - 3.6 billion, of which Idé-Pro will account for about 15%. We expect an EBITDA margin of 19 - 21% and an EBT margin of 11 - 13%.

Performance in 2025
2025 in outline
Consolidated revenue grew by 0.9% to DKK 2,948 million (2024: DKK 2,922 million). The increase was mainly attributable to increased revenue from subsupplier projects. Organic growth in local currencies was 1.8%. Changes in foreign exchange rates (depreciation of RMB and USD) reduced revenue by about DKK 25 million. The impact of currency movements was negative, representing 0.9% of the 0.9% increase in revenue.
Foreign sales declined by 2.4 percentage points to account for 72.8% (2024: 75.2%). Sales increased in Europe and Asia. Sales outside Europe fell from 29% to 26% of revenue.
Sales to our Danish customers increased by 10.9%.
Sales to the Healthcare industry fell by 0.9% to account for 39.8% of total sales (2024: 40.5%).
Sales of own products decreased by 10.1%. Ergonomic products and ventilation components experienced the largest declines. Sales of guide wires increased. Own products accounted for 27.1% of total Group sales.
EBITDA grew by 1.1% in 2025 to DKK 595 million (2024: DKK 589 million). The EBITDA margin was 20.2%, a 0.1 percentage point improvement over 2024.
The performance was affected by start-up costs for the factory in Atlanta, USA, and acquisition costs in connection with the acquisition of Idé-Pro of a total amount of DKK 27 million.
Depreciation, amortisation and impairment losses amounted to DKK 197.7 million, a DKK 5.4 million decline relative to 2024.
EBIT increased by DKK 12 million to DKK 398 million, equal to 13.5% of revenue.
The Group's net financial expenses amounted to DKK 52.5 million, an increase relative to 2024. Net expenses for 2025 were positively affected by lower interest rates, while 2024 expenses were favourably affected by adjustments relating to contingent consideration as well as foreign exchange adjustments.
Profit before tax (EBT) increased by 0.1% to DKK 345.0 million (2024: DKK 344.8 million). The EBT margin was 11.7%.

Diluted earnings per share amounted to DKK 22.1, an increase of DKK 0.6 relative to 2024.
At 31 December 2025, the Group had 2,766 employees.
Cash flows
Cash flows from operating activities fell to DKK 393 million (from DKK 510 million in 2024), primarily reflecting increased funds tied up in net working capital and a slight improvement in profit for the year.
Cash flows from investing activities amounted to DKK 827 million, which mainly related to the acquisition of Idé-Pro (DKK 653 million), capacity and competency development, machinery and equipment (DKK 174 million) and investments in properties (DKK 8 million).
A total amount of DKK 127 million was repaid in respect of non-current debt, while repayment of lease debt amounted to DKK 33 million. New loans were raised in an amount of DKK 672 million in connection with the acquisition of Idé-Pro.
Dividend of DKK 48.0 million was paid to the shareholders, and treasury shares worth a net amount of DKK 72.4 million were acquired.
Total cash and cash equivalents fell by DKK 41 million in 2025.
Balance sheet
Total assets grew from DKK 3,162 million to DKK 3,994 million, which was attributable to the acquisition of Idé-Pro, purchases of property, plant and equipment and an increase in gross working capital.
Equity increased from DKK 1,697 million to DKK 1,809 million.
Net interest-bearing debt (NIBD) increased to DKK 1,460 million (from DKK 821 million in 2024) to amount to 2.5 times EBITDA for the year. The acquisition of Idé-Pro resulted in a net increase in debt of DKK 653 million.
It is Management's opinion that the Company maintains reasonable capital resources and sufficient liquidity for the Company's strategy and operations. The Company has strong, long-standing relationships with its financial cooperative partners, which is also expected to be the case going forward.
The capital structure was changed in 2025 in that the current interest-bearing debt was reduced from 13.5% to 11.9% of the balance sheet total,

while the non-current interest-bearing debt rose from 17.3% to 27.4% of the balance sheet total. The equity ratio fell from 53.7% to 45.3%, and the proportion of non-interest-bearing debt of the balance sheet total fell from 15.6% to 15.4%.
Net interest-bearing debt increased from 26.0% to 36.5% of the balance sheet total.
In 2025, equity was adversely affected by the purchase of treasury shares worth a net amount of DKK 72.4 million. Value adjustments of financial instruments entered into to hedge future cash flows, primarily forward contracts (PLN against EUR), affected comprehensive income and, by extension, equity positively in the amount of DKK 10.9 million.
Exchange rate adjustments of foreign entities had a negative effect on equity in the amount of DKK 48.5 million, while the distribution of dividends had a negative effect of DKK 48.0 million.
For 2025, a dividend of DKK 4.0 per share has been proposed (2024: DKK 4.0), corresponding to 18.7% of the profit after tax.
Follow-up on previously announced guidance
At DKK 2,948 million and DKK 345 million, respectively, revenue for the year and profit before tax were in line with the most recent guidance of 10 July 2025 of revenue growth in the range of -3% to +3% (realised 0.9% growth), an EBITDA margin of 19-21% (realised 20.2%) and an EBT margin of 11-13% (realised 11.7%).
Previous guidance announcements in 2025
31 March, annual report 2024
Global uncertainty remains significant due to geopolitical tensions, interest rate levels and a slowdown in European industrial production, which may affect the Group's activity levels in 2025. However, SP Group continues to see signs of improved order intake and maintains its focus on commercial execution, the development of own products and capacity investments, including in the US.
Against this background, SP Group expects revenue growth of 3-10%, an EBITDA margin of 19-21% and an EBT margin of 11-13% for 2025.
22 May, interim report for Q1 2025
No changes relative to the most recent guidance of 31 March 2025.
10 July, trading update for 2025
SP Group generated lower-than-expected sales and earnings in the second quarter of 2025 due to the postponement of several orders and projects during the period. The Q2 performance was impacted by ongoing geopolitical unrest, leading to increased uncertainty in global markets and disruption in supply chains with several of our customers postponing the launch of new projects.
As a consequence, SP Group downgrades its revenue guidance for 2025, but maintains its earnings margin guidance:
SP Group expects revenue growth in the range of -3% to +3% (previously +3% to +10%) for an EBITDA margin of 19-21% (unchanged) and an EBT margin of 11-13% (unchanged).

EBITDA came to DKK 178.0 million – an increase of 26.0% (2024: DKK 141.2 million). The EBITDA margin was 21.5%.
EBIT amounted to DKK 128.0 million – an increase of 42.7% (2024: DKK 89.7 million).
Profit before tax (EBT) was DKK 115.8 million – an increase of 27.9% (2024: DKK 90.5 million). Profit before tax equalled 14.0% of revenue.
Depreciation, amortisation and impairment losses amounted to DKK 49.9 million, a year-on-year decline of DKK 1.6 million.
Q4 cash flows from operating activities amounted to a net inflow of DKK 65.9 million (2024: DKK 108.4 million). Cash flows from investing activities were a net outflow of DKK 702.8 million (2024: net outflow of DKK 71.9 million). Cash flows from financing activities were a net inflow of DKK 593.7 million (2024: net inflow of DKK 32.9 million), primarily driven by acquisition loans in connection with the acquisition of Idé-Pro. Accordingly, the change in liquidity was a negative DKK 43.2 million (2024: positive at DKK 69.3 million).
After a weak second and third quarter, marked by order postponements and customer hesitation, the companies experienced an increasing order intake, resulting in very strong activity in the fourth quarter. Growth in the fourth quarter was driven by a combination of sales of own products and subsupplier projects.

Our business Towards 2030
SP Group
Towards 2030
Over the past 20 years, we have successfully worked to create a larger, better and more profitable SP Group by maintaining a strong focus on our customers and ensuring solid organic growth supplemented by acquisitions that create value.
We are strategically focused on advanced technical plastics solutions for the Healthcare, Cleantech and Foodtech industries, where we see strong potential for continued growth and for developing plastics solutions that make a difference for our customers. We intend to continue using this formula, and our ambition is to grow by an average rate of 6 - 9% annually based on organic growth and small-scale acquisitions, corresponding to revenue in the region of DKK 4.5 billion by 2030 – and perhaps even more if we succeed with major acquisitions.
We will continue to focus on our own-brand products as part of the portfolio and on growing our own products' share of total sales. In 2025, our own-brand products accounted for 27.1%. We will also continue to expand internationally and drive further efficiency improvements through continued investments in new plant, technology and employees. We are seeing fiercer competition, especially for our sub-
supplier activities, which puts pressure on our margins. Overall, we aim for an EBITDA margin of 20 - 22% by 2030 and to increase our profit before tax to 12 - 14% of revenue, corresponding to about DKK 600 million.
SP Group is a dedicated subsupplier of plastic components, mastering a wide array of advanced plastics manufacturing technologies. This gives us a unique platform for serving our customers better than many of our competitors, who typically focus on a single technology.
We also aim to achieve a ratio of net interest-bearing debt to EBITDA in the range of 1-3.5x. This target allows for expansion of our activities beyond the planned scope as and when we spot attractive opportunities. SP Group will continue to reduce net interest-bearing debt by strengthening cash flows from operating activities and divesting non-value-creating activities in order to release capital.
We seek to maintain our equity ratio – including minority interests' share of equity – at no less than 40%. If major acquisitions bring our equity ratio below 40%, the Company will consider asking the shareholders to contribute additional capital.
The annual dividend generally represents 15 - 25% of the profit for the year after tax, taking into consideration the Company's capital structure and cash needs. See our Policy on capital allocation and dividend. Every year before the annual general meeting, Management assesses whether this level is adequate. The proposed dividend for 2025 of DKK 4.00 corresponds to 18.7% of the profit after tax.

2025 in outline
Overall, we saw strong improvements in 2025, and while our blow-moulding activities had a quiet year, we are pleased with our many new injection moulding projects.
Our new injection moulding factory in Atlanta, USA, has generated a lot of interest, and the factory team excels in converting potential into competitive solutions for customers. Prompted by the high level of activity, we are exploring opportunities to further expand production capacity. We have invested about DKK 200 million in the Atlanta factory since its start-up, and in 2026 and 2027, we expect to invest an additional DKK 100 million overall.
We stepped up our sales and marketing efforts and rebranded SP Moulding, Ulstrup Plast and Coreplast under a single name, SP Moulding. This was done partly to boost cross-selling and collaboration across the three entities, partly to signal to our customers that we want to be their preferred supplier and one-stop shop.
Our own products – plastic-based clear vials and guide wire products for the medical device industry – continue to see a positive trend and strong demand. In 2025, we continued to grow capacity by investing in machinery to automate manual processes in our guide wire production.
Strategy
We will continue to focus on being the customers' preferred supplier and offering customised solutions designed to suit their individual needs. We will continue to intensify our marketing efforts and strengthen awareness of the 'SP' brand to boost cross-selling across the Group and secure an inflow of more new customers to SP Group.
Our acquisition of Idé-Pro will help us increase in-house production of moulding tools and thereby control a larger part of the value chain, adding flexibility to solve customer needs. Similarly, Idé-Pro's factory in India provides new opportunities to increase our presence in Asia.
We are expanding capacity for the production of plastic components for the medical device industry by converting a 7,000 m² factory building in Poland and establishing 1,700 m² of new cleanroom facilities for already secured contracts. The first stage is scheduled to become operational in Q2 2026. To increase capacity, additional investments will be made in machinery and peripherals.
We will continue to take part in the consolidation in Northern Europe where relevant, and explore opportunities for complementing our technology platform to support our ambition to become a one-stop shop.
Efficiency improvements will continue at all factories through lean projects, increased automation and emphasis on energy and raw materials consumption, scrapping and switch-over times.

TPI-Polytechniek
TPI-Polytechniek is the leading supplier of light-foamed chimneys, air intake valves and ventilation components for the agricultural and industrial sectors. PUR is particularly suitable for these purposes because of its light weight and highly insulating properties combined with its non-condensing properties under temperature changes.
The products, which also include injection-moulded and vacuum-formed solutions, are developed in and distributed from the Netherlands and manufactured at SP Tinby, SP Moulding and SP Gibo. The products are sold globally to customers that manufacture complete ventilation solutions, primarily for livestock production.
2025
It was a turbulent year for our own products from TPI-Polytechniek and Ergomat with strong activity in the first and the fourth quarters of the year, as several projects were postponed due to geopolitical unrest in the second and third quarters. This resulted in a general decline in sales for the year, but not in underlying demand for the products, which is expected to grow in 2026.
Tinby and MM Composite were combined under the name of SP Tinby. SP Tinby reported a revenue decline for 2025, primarily due to changes in the needs of the largest customers – a trend that is expected to change in 2026. Sales efforts were intensified in 2025 and will continue in 2026.
Strategy
We will continue to develop new, innovative products in both Ergomat and TPI-Polytechniek to match customer needs, and we will increase sales and marketing efforts. Our own products are an important part of SP Group's business, and we intend to further grow the share of these products.
Ergomat experienced a weak year with declining sales in its primary markets, while sales to customers focusing on safety and ergonomic workplaces in Asia grew. We intend to strengthen these sales further and intensify our sales efforts in Asia in 2026.
TPI-Polytechniek expects to expand in 2026, particularly in Asia and North America, which remain its focus areas. New markets will also be cultivated, and the special efforts aimed at South America will continue. New and innovative products will continue to be a focal point in the coming years.
SP Tinby remains focused on winning new customers within Cleantech and developing customised products and production processes for polyurethane and composite products.

Vacuum forming, rotational moulding and extrusion
SP Group
Due to their deep-rooted position in the market, local brands are still used in Sweden (Opido) and Norway (Plexx).
Own products include the Group's maritime brands, Dan-Fender and Atlantic Floats, which offer products for the maritime and fishing industries, and Nycopac, which develops and sells reusable industrial packaging. The products are often made from recycled plastics and can easily be recycled after use.
2025
Activity levels were high in 2025. The strengthened sales efforts in recent years are now beginning to pay off and will continue in the coming years. GIBO Plast A/S and Dan Hill Plast A/S merged into SP Gibo A/S in 2025 due to a large overlap of customers.
The factories in Denmark, Sweden, Poland, China and the US are full-function sales and manufacturing entities offering a very high level of service and quality. Efforts are continuously made to enhance productivity, and these efforts contributed to lifting SP Gibo's profitability in 2025.
Strategy
SP Gibo will be even more involved in its customers' development phases so that new projects and solutions can be designed and implemented in collaboration with the customers. We have developed new projects for customers in various
industries, which are expected to contribute positively to sales and earnings in 2026.
A global production platform will offer production close to customers to minimise the environmental impact of transporting plastic components over long distances. This is why SP Gibo is continuously exploring the possibilities of adding production technologies to enhance our existing product offering. At the same time, we focus on increasing the volume of recycled plastics in products and establishing closed-loop flows, which means that our customers return components after use for subsequent grinding and repurposing in new products.
SP Gibo's own brand, Dan-Fender, consisting of fenders and buoys for the maritime industry, is set to continue the roll-out of its new Competition fender range that complements Dan-Fender's popular Heavy-Duty range.

Risk management
An important part of SP Group's strategic work is to identify potential business risks, assess which ones pose a threat and initiate the necessary measures to mitigate potential negative impacts – thereby reducing the overall level of risk
Risk management supports the execution of SP Group's 2030 strategy, which aims to achieve revenue of DKK 4.5 billion and focuses on continued development within Healthcare, Cleantech and Foodtech, as well as the Group's overall strategy.
Strategic alignment
Risk management is closely aligned with the Group's strategy and business development. As part of the annual strategy process, the Executive Board performs a systematic assessment of material risks that may affect the realisation of the strategic goals. The assessment is carried out both top-down, based on the Group's strategy, and bottom-up through dialogue with the management teams of the individual business units.
The selected risks that are assessed to have the greatest impact on the execution of the Group's strategy are presented on the following pages.
Risk management is included in SP Group's annual strategic plan, which is approved by the Board of Directors. Furthermore, at least once annually, the Board of Directors lays down the framework for managing interest rate, credit and currency risks as well as risks related to raw materials and energy prices.
In SP Meditec's cleanroom facilities, medical devices are assembled and packaged under strictly controlled conditions with full documentation and traceability.

Risk management
Each of the identified risks is assessed on the basis of the probability that it will occur and its potential impacts for the Group. This assessment forms the basis of the prioritisation of efforts and on-going follow-up by the Executive Board and the Board of Directors
SP Group pursues the following overall risk management principles:
- Prevent: take steps to prevent a risk from occurring
- Eliminate: modify plans or processes to eliminate a risk
- Mitigate: reduce the probability of a risk occurring or reduce its impact
- Transfer: share or transfer the risk with or to other parties through insurance or partnerships
- Monitor: continuously monitor and assess
- Accept: accept the risk and its impacts without further action
ESG-related risks are addressed in more detail in the Sustainability Report on page 60. Financial risks related to financing, liquidity, interest rates and currency are addressed in more detail in note 33 to the consolidated financial statements on page 152.

Thanks to SP Group's diversification in terms of industries and geographies, its dependency on individual areas is reduced. With a view to strengthening our market position and reducing our exposure, SP Group works to:
- increase sales outside Denmark, with a focus on Northern Europe and the US, and global sales of selected niche products and own brands
- continuously expand production capacity in order to be able to serve customers in the regions in which the products are to be used
- maintain industry diversification so that the Group is not dependent on a single industry
- consolidate selected markets through mergers and acquisitions and in-sourcing of customers' own production
- systematically address cost efficiency and utilisation of the Group's size and technological expertise with a view to strengthening competitiveness.
B
Market focus and customer dependency
The risk of SP Group focusing too widely or too narrowly in the market or becoming overly dependent on individual customers, segment or geographies.
While SP Group has more than 1,000 active customers, revenue is concentrated among the largest ones. In 2025, the ten largest customers accounted for 49.4% of revenue (53.4% in 2024) and the 20 largest for 57.6% (60.6% in 2024). Two customers each accounted for more than 10% of revenue; 11.4% and 10.2%, respectively.
The Group's largest customers are well-capitalised, international industrial undertakings. A decline in the level of activity among major customers or the loss of a major customer may affect earnings and the level of capacity utilisation and weaken the Group's negotiating power. Similarly, the increased pace of technological development and its integration may lead to changing needs among major customers.
The target of increasing sales of our own products implies that customer changes or loss of revenue will have a relatively large effect on future earnings, as the Group's own products generate higher contribution margins. Sales of the Group's own products are often linked to large projects, and as the Group's own products gradually represent an increasing share of overall revenue, the timing of these projects may also have an impact on the individual quarters.
SP Group works actively to reduce the concentration risk by maintaining a broad customer base and strengthening sales efforts. The Group enters into multi-year collaboration agreements, and our companies engage in customers' product development with a view to strengthening relations and increasing switching costs.
The Group's regional presence in Europe, the US, China and India – including via the acquisition of Idé-Pro – supports market access and contributes to increased diversification.
C
Investments (including M&A)
The risk of investments in capacity expansion and acquisitions not leading to the expected value creation or impacting negatively on earnings and capital structure.
SP Group's strategy requires continuous investments in production capacity and acquisitions. In 2025, the level of investment was stepped up in connection with, for example, expansion in Poland and the US and the integration of Idé-Pro.
Failure to successfully identify, complete or integrate acquisitions may affect earnings and capital application. Similarly, new production facilities may involve risks related to ramp-up, capacity utilisation and demand. Acquisitions are an important part of the growth strategy and are consequently strategically important.
However, the Group has extensive experience with acquisitions and integration processes, and its historical execution has been satisfactory.
SP Group conducts structured due diligence processes and applies internal assessment models in connection with acquisitions. Integration is managed centrally with a focus on synergies, cultural alignment and operational efficiency. Investments in production capacity are based on documented demand and regular capacity analyses, and the Group strives to increase inter-company flexibility with a view to reducing utilisation risk.

Impact
Probability
Geopolitics and macroeconomics
The risk of geopolitical conditions such as war, trade restrictions, tariffs, political instability or changed international relations affecting SP Group's operations, customers, suppliers or capital access.
Global uncertainty has increased due to war, trade barriers and changing political agendas. Geopolitical conditions may affect the Group's customers through lower activity levels, changes in investment decisions or shifts in global value chains.
We sell our products in 98 countries, have companies and employees in 13 countries and source raw materials from around the world. We are therefore dependent on well-functioning global infrastructure and unhindered access to markets. Rising oil or energy prices and disruptions to supply security may affect the entire value chain.
Tariff barriers and trade restrictions may impact cost structures and competitive conditions, particularly in the relationship between Europe and the US. In addition, geopolitical instability may affect capital markets and investor risk appetite, which may indirectly influence financing options and share prices.
However, SP Group's broad geographical presence and regional production setup reduce the Group's direct exposure.
SP Group operates regional production close to customers in Europe, Asia and the US. Geographic diversification and industry spread reduce dependence on individual markets.
Potential scenarios and their impact on operations, supplies and capital structure are continuously assessed. Flexibility in production and the ability to adjust capacity contribute to reducing overall exposure.
IT and cybersecurity risk
The risk of operational disruption, financial loss or reputational damage as a result of cyberattacks, system failure or an inadequate level of IT security.
SP Group's IT systems are attacked daily from multiple directions, and the threat is increasing. A serious cyberattack could result in temporary operational disruptions, delayed deliveries or financial losses.
Similarly, our business partners may be affected by cyberattacks, which could delay projects and supplies.
The possibility that criminals use artificial intelligence in their efforts to carry out successful attacks increases the threat level in these years, requiring security measures to be continuously reassessed.
In SP Group's assessment, the impact of a cyberattack is mitigated by the Group's production setup, which allows a significant portion of production to continue even in the event of temporary IT disruptions.
Sales to defence-related segments marginally increase exposure but are not considered to materially change the overall risk profile.
SP Group continues to strengthen its IT governance and works on updating security measures, access control and monitoring. Backup solutions and contingency procedures have been established to ensure rapid system recovery in the event of breakdowns.
Employees are regularly trained in secure IT practices and awareness of emerging cyber threats.
The Group monitors developments in regulatory requirements, including NIS2, and conducts ongoing internal assessments of the security level of its IT network.

| Current status | SP Group's growth strategy, including capacity expansions and M&A activities, entails an increased capital requirement during the strategy period. The integration of acquisitions, including Idé-Pro, and investments in production facilities in Europe and the US affect liquidity consumption. Geopolitical uncertainty and capital market fluctuations may affect access to external funding as well as investors' risk appetite. Lack of or delayed access to capital may affect the Group's ability to carry out planned investments and acquisitions. However, the Group maintains solid financial resources and an ongoing focus on cash flows from operating activities. | SP Group has significant activities outside Denmark and a particular exposure to PLN and USD. The currency risk arises both operationally through ongoing payments and structurally through ownership of assets abroad. In Poland, significant expenses are incurred in PLN, primarily for operations, investments and rent, while a significant proportion of sales is settled in EUR. This creates a natural imbalance that increases the exposure to PLN. This exposure will increase in step with the expansion of production capacity in Poland. In the US, there is a growing inflow of USD in connection with increased activity. In addition, the Group is exposed to a structural asset risk through its ownership of production facilities in Poland and the US. General geopolitical uncertainty may lead to increased volatility in foreign exchange markets. |
| Risk mitigation | SP Group actively manages liquidity and prepares ongoing forecasts of capital requirements. Financing is based on a combination of bank facilities and equity, and efforts are made to ensure flexibility in the financing structure. Ongoing assessments are made of the capital structure, financing sources and scenarios to ensure that the Group is in a position to support its strategic ambitions. | SP Group continuously monitors exchange rate fluctuations and makes foreign exchange transactions in accordance with the Board's policies for hedging commercial agreements. Hedging is effected by means of borrowing, forward exchange contracts or option contracts, and Management continuously assesses the need to hedge the risk on each individual transaction. |

The Board of Directors' work
The strategy for SP Group and its business areas is discussed and defined once annually or as required. The Board of Directors regularly follows up on the strategic and financial targets, which are reported on in interim and full-year reports and at the annual general meeting.
In 2025, the Board of Directors held eight ordinary meetings, two of which focused on strategy and budgets, respectively. At the board meeting in December, the Board of Directors also discussed business risks and the management of such risks at group level. Once a year, the Board of Directors lays down the framework for managing interest rate, credit and currency risks and risks related to raw materials and energy prices. The Board follows up on the implementation of this framework on an ongoing basis. The rules of procedure are discussed and reviewed as a matter of routine at the board meeting held in June.
The Board of Directors receives a weekly report from the Executive Board on a number of recurring topics, including the Group's cash position and the performance of the individual business areas. Additionally, the Board of Directors receives detailed financial follow-up through quarterly and monthly reports.
The Board of Directors regularly assesses the Group's financial position, goals, dividend policy and share structure. The Board of Directors believes that the financial structure is well aligned with SP Group's current scale and challenges, and the Board targets an equity ratio of at least 40% to ensure an efficient capital structure in accordance with the Company's Policy on capital allocation and dividend. If major acquisitions bring our equity ratio below 25%, the Company will consider asking the shareholders to contribute additional capital.
Composition of the Board of Directors
The members of the Board of Directors are elected at the annual general meeting of SP Group. Following the annual general meeting held on 24 April 2025, the Board of Directors appointed
Annual report 2025
Management's review Governance Governance
SP Group
Hans W. Schur as its Chairman and Erik P. Holm as its Deputy Chairman. Hans-Henrik Eriksen was re-appointed as Chairman of the Audit Committee.
Hans W. Schur is associated with a major shareholder in SP Group but cannot be deemed to be a majority shareholder. Hence, no member of the Board of Directors has any interest in the Group other than to safeguard the interests of the shareholders.
The Board of Directors consists of individuals with relevant insight into the plastics industry and with management experience from positions with international manufacturing companies. The current Board of Directors is believed to possess the skills and expertise required for managing the Group and being an effective sounding board for the Executive Board. Five to six board members is considered an appropriate number, as this allows the Board of Directors to work efficiently and convene quickly, while at the same time being large enough to represent different backgrounds.
Among the members of the Board of Directors, Bente Overgaard and Marie Bakholdt Lund are deemed to be independent (according to the criteria defined by the Committee on Corporate Governance), while Hans-Henrik Eriksen is no longer deemed to be independent as at 24 April 2025. Hans W. Schur, Erik P. Holm and Hans-Henrik Eriksen have all served on the Board for more than 12 years and are therefore not deemed to be independent. Hence, only 40% of the members of the Board of Directors are independent, which is not in accordance with the Recommendations on Corporate Governance. This also appears from Recommendations on Corporate Governance 2025.
Hans W. Schur, who has been a member of the Board of Directors since 1999 and has served as Chairman since April 2018, has decided not to seek re-election at SP Group's annual general meeting to be held on 29 April 2026.
Erik P. Holm, Hans-Henrik Eriksen, Bente Overgaard and Marie Bakholdt Lund are all candidates for re-election. In addition, Johan Schur stands as candidate for the Board of Directors. Assuming that the Board of Directors is elected, a majority of the board members will once again be independent. The Board of Directors will appoint Erik P. Holm as Chairman and Hans-Henrik Eriksen as Deputy Chairman.

Management's review Governance Governance
SP Group
Internal controls and risk management in relation to financial reporting
The overall responsibility for the Group's internal controls and risk management in relation to the financial reporting process, including compliance with applicable legislation and other financial reporting regulation, rests with the Board of Directors and the Executive Board of SP Group
The Group's control and risk management systems can provide reasonable but not absolute assurance that misappropriation of assets, losses and/or significant errors and omissions in the financial reporting are prevented.
Control environment
At least once a year, the Board of Directors considers the Group's organisational structure, the risk of fraud and the existence of internal rules and guidelines.
The Board of Directors and the Executive Board lay down and approve overall policies, procedures and controls in significant areas in relation to the financial reporting process, including business procedures and internal controls, budget and budget follow-up procedures, procedures for the preparation of monthly financial statements and related controlling and procedures for reporting to the Board of Directors.
On an ongoing basis, the Executive Board monitors compliance with relevant legislation and other financial reporting regulations and provisions, and reports its findings to the Board of Directors.
The Board of Directors may set up special-purpose committees but, given the size of the Group, has so far not found it necessary to set up committees other than the Audit Committee.
Audit Committee
The duties of the Audit Committee are carried out by the combined members of the Board of Directors. The Audit Committee has its own rules of procedure and holds separate meetings in connection with board meetings.
Hans-Henrik Eriksen is Chairman of the Audit Committee. Given his background as a state-authorised public accountant, he has extensive expertise in accounting and auditing. The Company considers that the composition of the Audit Committee complies with the applicable statutory requirements, including the requirements relating to independence and accounting expertise. The Company deviates from the Recommendations on Corporate Governance with respect to the independence of board members, which is explained in more detail in Recommendations on Corporate Governance 2025.
Whistleblower programme
SP Group strives to create a business environment that promotes and upholds a high degree of integrity and responsibility. The Group's whistleblower programme allows any person associated with the Group to report in confidence any suspected non-compliance with policies and guidelines, laws and regulations as well as any other serious concerns.
The whistleblower programme is described in more detail in the Sustainability Report under 'G1 Governance'.
Risk assessment
At least once a year, the Board of Directors makes an overall assessment of risks relating to the financial reporting process. As part of its risk assessment, the Board of Directors considers the risk of fraud and the measures to be taken to reduce and/or eliminate such risks. In this connection, the Board discusses any incentives/motives Management may have to commit fraudulent financial reporting or other types of fraud.
Audit
The Board of Directors recommends an audit firm of state-authorised public accountants to perform the financial audit and the sustainability audit, respectively. The audit firm is appointed at the annual general meeting. The auditor is the representative of the public.
SP Group's auditors submit a long-form audit report to the full Board of Directors once a year and immediately upon identifying any matters to be considered by the Board of Directors. The auditors participate in the meetings of the Board of Directors in connection with the presentation of long-form audit reports. Prior to the recommendation for appointment at the annual general meeting, the Board of Directors makes an assessment, in consultation with the Executive Board, of the audit firm's independence, competences, etc.
Most of the subsidiaries are audited by the parent company's auditors or the auditors' foreign business partners.

Change of control
In case of a change of control, the Company's lenders are entitled to renegotiate their loan terms. Moreover, a number of customer agreements contain provisions allowing the customers to terminate their trading agreements in case of a change of control.
Shareholder returns
The Board of Directors continues to prioritise a balanced allocation of the Company's profits, focusing on strengthening SP Group's financial position and financing initiatives that support profitable and long-term growth. The Company's policy is to secure and maintain a robust capital base with an equity ratio of not less than 40% and financial gearing (NIBD/EBITDA) of 1.0-3.5x and up to 4.0 in the first two quarters following an acquisition.

Management's review Governance Management systems
SP Group
Management systems
All SP Group's production facilities have implemented quality and management systems that provide the framework for the Group's systematic efforts in relation to quality, the environment and health and safety.
Management systems
Most SP Group production facilities have systematised their management and control activities through formal management systems that are primarily based on quality, environmental and/or health and safety management systems.
The management systems are based on a mapping of the production facilities' stakeholders as well as internal and external factors and an assessment of material risks and opportunities.
The management systems involve defining policies as well as objectives, goals and action plans and also imply that the production facilities establish and maintain management systems of procedures and instructions for the most significant activities.
The production facilities' management systems are audited annually by independent, accredited certification agencies that evaluate the facilities' actual performance against the procedures set out in the management systems and the requirements of applicable ISO standards.
Quality management (ISO 9001, ISO 13485, ISO 15378 and IATF 16949)
Similar to the Group's environmental and health and safety management systems, its quality management systems ensure that the production facilities work in a structured and systematic manner to continuously improve internal work processes
The systems support the appropriate management of resources, suppliers, production and products with a focus on stable supplies and a high degree of customer satisfaction.
Environmental management (ISO 14001)
The environmental management systems ensure systematic mapping and management of the production facilities' material environmental aspects as well as compliance with applicable environmental legislation.
Based on defined procedures and instructions, the production facilities work determinedly and systematically on regularly improving their environmental performance, which is monitored and measured.
Improved environmental performance is achieved, for example, by investing in processes, buildings and equipment, thus supporting, within the Group's financial limits, the application of cleaner technologies.
Health and safety management (ISO 45001)
The health and safety management systems enable the production facilities to document the mapping of their health and safety conditions and to address these conditions in a responsible manner.
The production facilities' efforts to obtain and maintain health and safety certifications extend beyond compliance with national statutory requirements and international conventions in the health and safety area. By complying with procedures and instructions, the production facilities ensure that they work in a targeted and systematic manner to continuously improve health and safety.
A continuous focus on employees' physical and mental working environment ensures employees' well-being and safety in the production facilities, which aim to reduce absence due to illness and work-related accidents and to ensure personal and professional development of the individual employees.
R&D
The development of plastics and plastics technologies continues to progress rapidly. A case in point is the wind turbine industry, which uses composites that combine plastics and other materials.
SP Group continuously optimises production technologies for both high-volume and low-volume production to maintain and strengthen the Group's global competitive strength. The Group's R&D departments actively contribute to this development through collaboration with customers, universities and raw materials suppliers.
IT, personal data security and data ethics
SP Group has established a central IT department to support a robust and cohesive IT framework across the Group's existing subsidiaries and in

connection with the integration of future acquisitions.
General policies have been established for IT security, data protection and data ethics, which provide the framework for the subsidiaries' use of IT systems and processing of personal data.
SP Group endeavours to ensure responsible and secure use of IT systems and personal data through efficient personal data protection, robust IT systems and clear data ethical principles.
The Group's data ethics efforts are based on five principles according to which people must be the primary focus so they feel they are in control of their data, the use of personal data must be transparent, and data processing must be carried out in a responsible manner and promote dignity and equality.
All SP Group's subsidiaries and IT networks are reviewed at least once a year by the IT manager as regards these policies. Any deviations are handled on the basis of actions plan with defined deadlines.

General basis for preparation of the sustainability report
SP Group's sustainability report for the 12 months ended 31 December 2025 was prepared in accordance with the requirements of the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS).
The sustainability report was prepared by consolidating all SP Group companies and covers the full range of activities, resources and relations related to our business model and the external environment in which we operate.
The consolidation applied in this sustainability report is the same as that applied in the consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, all companies included in the consolidated financial statements and their employees are also included in the sustainability report. In this way, we ensure consistency between our financial and non-financial reporting.
On 17 December 2025, SP Group acquired Idé-Pro BE Holding ApS. In connection with this, all material sustainability information has been incorporated in the consolidated sustainability report.
Scope of materiality assessment
SP Group's materiality assessment covers impacts, risks and opportunities (IROs) throughout our value chain, from the upstream to the downstream value chain, as well as our own production.
Upstream value chain: We have assessed the impacts on the environment of the distribution and transportation of raw materials received from suppliers in the upstream value chain. This information is covered by the sections E1-5 Energy consumption and mix, E1-6 GHG emissions and E5-4 Resource inflow.
Downstream value chain: We have assessed the impacts of recycling and disposal of waste as well as the distribution and transportation of products, but we do not have any information on how customers handle products after use. Information about our environmental impact is found in E1-5 Energy consumption and mix, E1-6 Gross GHG emissions and E5-5 Resource outflow.
We report according to sections 99a and 107d of the Danish Financial Statements Act. No SP Group company is exempt from individual or consolidated sustainability reporting under section 99a(7) of the Danish Financial Statements Act.
We have not excluded information related to intellectual property rights, know-how or results of innovation.

Disclosures in relation to specific circumstances
Estimation and outcome uncertainty
We endeavour to disclose data as accurately as possible based on primary data and direct consumption readings, and we do not use sector average data or other proxies to estimate upstream and downstream value chain data. The following areas have been identified as sources of measurement uncertainty in the reporting:
Scope 3 emissions are reported on the basis of ESRS and the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (the GHG Protocol) methodologies.
For Categories 4 and 9, upstream and downstream transportation, we primarily use supplier data and the distance-based method. The distance-based method involves estimating distances travelled and means of transportation used, which are then documented in a reporting template that has been prepared to support subsidiary reporting.
For Categories 4 and 9, upstream and downstream distribution, it is estimated that all pallets are 1.15 cubic metres in size.
This sustainability report does not disclose monetary amounts that are subject to a high degree of measurement uncertainty.
Changes in the presentation of sustainability information
As a step in the natural process of achieving ESG data maturity, we have recalculated, and will continue to recalculate, baseline and comparative figures as and when we obtain more accurate and reliable data.
In the past reporting period, we set a materiality threshold for Scope 3 emissions relative to total Scope 3 GHG emissions for the determination of whether a Scope 3 category is material. As a result, Category 5 (Waste) and Category 6

(Business travel) were omitted from the report. Historical data for 2024 were corrected accordingly.
The methodology for reporting on waste was improved in 2025 and now complies with the classification of waste management under ESRS, making the data quality of the categories more accurate. Accordingly, 2024 and 2025 data for the categories in the table on page 52 are not comparable.
With respect to S1-16, the methodology for calculating the gender pay gap and the annual remuneration ratio was improved relative to that used in 2024.
In connection with the DMA evaluation, S1-11, Social protection and S-12, Persons with disabilities were no longer deemed material and were therefore omitted from the reporting in 2025. G1-2 Management of relationships with suppliers and G1-5 Political influence and lobbying activities were also not included in the reporting in 2025 and accordingly were not considered material in 2024 either.
E1-7, GHG removals and GHG mitigation projects financed through carbon credits, and E1-8, Internal carbon pricing were not included in the reporting because, like in 2024, there were no activities within these categories. For G1-3, FY2025 comprises information that was not included in 2024. Comparative figures are not obtainable.
Reporting errors in prior periods
The calculation of waste generated by SP Group's own activities in 2024 included internally generated plastic waste recycled in production. In the recalculation of the 2024 figures, this waste volume was deducted from the waste calculation on page 88, and all data impacted by this were recalculated.
In calculating the 2025 Scope 3 emissions for categories 4 and 9, corrections to the previously reported 2024 emissions were identified. The updated 2024 figures have resulted in revisions to the totals and subtotals for a number of data points on page 81.

Risk management and internal controls over sustainability reporting
In connection with risk management and internal sustainability reporting controls, SP Group applies the methodology set out in the OECD guidelines for responsible business conduct and due diligence. SP Group applies a three-step risk assessment model to systematically identify, assess and prioritise risks. Sustainability-related risks are mapped and classified according to their nature and potential impact. Risks are assessed on the basis of probability and impact against existing controls. Then a score of 1 to 3 is given, on the basis of which priorities and actions are decided.
We have identified the following material risk areas in the context of sustainability reporting as well as a number of corrective actions which have been implemented to mitigate these risks.
Identified risks are handled locally by in-house functions and processes in the subsidiaries in consultation with our ESG manager.
The results of identified risks in the subsidiaries are reported annually to the Board of Directors and the Executive Board and, in concrete cases involving serious risks, on an ad hoc basis.
| Risk areas | Corrective actions |
|---|---|
| Reporting tool | • A digital software solution and a reporting portal to ensure efficient and reliable data collection. |
| Completeness of data | • All subsidiaries report on all datapoints. |
| Reporting skills | • Preparation of internal reporting guide, followed up by information sessions aimed at relevant employees. All new employees who will be involved in reporting must be introduced to the reporting portal and the guide. |

Strategy, business model and value chain
Sustainability strategy
At SP Group, we are conscious of our joint responsibility to contribute to a more sustainable world and aim to do so through our day-to-day efforts. Liaising with customers and other stakeholders, we aim to develop and manufacture products that promote quality of life and ensure a more efficient use of resources – for the benefit of the environment, climate, people and animals.
Our subsidiaries must be managed with a focus on innovation of operations and manufacturing processes to optimise resource consumption and promote sustainable practices. This will contribute to a positive development both globally and locally and support the health and safety of our employees. To this end, we have a strategy for our subsidiaries to be ISO certified in the areas of quality, environment and health and safety. Our certification status is described in 'Management systems' on page 43.
We support the initiative behind the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to which our actions contribute directly or indirectly. To
underline our commitment to global sustainability, we have been a member of the UN Global Compact for 13 years now, its principles being the foundation for our sustainability activities.
Business model
SP Group develops and manufactures moulded plastic and composite components that include both own-brand products and customer-specific solutions.
Manufacturing processes are based on carefully selected raw materials combined with advanced technologies in a wide range of manufacturing processes, including injection moulding, reaction injection moulding, vacuum forming, blow moulding, rotational moulding, extrusion and 3D printing.
Our products have a wide range of applications in industries such as Healthcare, Cleantech and Foodtech, which have high demands for quality and precision. In recent years, we have strengthened our efforts to integrate sustainability into our business model. In particular, we have focused
on value creation through recycling of plastics in our production and utilising own surplus materials from production as well as regenerated materials and raw materials from other players in the plastics industry.
Value chain
Our value chain is illustrated in Figure 2 and includes upstream, own processes and downstream.
Our subsidiaries collaborate and engage with stakeholders in the upstream value chain, including suppliers of raw materials and transportation providers, on know-how and development in relation to securing raw materials, products and services, to the benefit of our customers and investors.
Number of employees by geography
At 31 December 2025, we had a total of 2,766 employees in 13 countries and a total of 33 factories in Europe, Asia and the US. The geographical distribution of employees is illustrated in Figure 1.

Upstream
Own processes
Downstream
Our upstream value chain includes:
- Extraction: Crude oil and gas are transported to refineries.
- Manufacture of plastics in primary form: Refined raw materials are transported on to manufacturers that manufacture plastics in primary form, such as powders, granules and resins. Some of our companies source plastics in primary form from which plastic and composite products are manufactured.
- Manufacture of semi-manufactured products: In other cases, plastics in primary form undergo further processing into semi-manufactured products in the form of sheets, rods and tubing before being used by our companies.
- Transportation: Plastics in primary form and as semi-manufactured products are delivered to our companies by lorry in approximately $90\%$ of cases.
- Production machinery, equipment and tools: As a necessary resource, we receive new machinery, robots and tools from the upstream value chain for the manufacture of plastic and composite components.
Our processes ensure that our own-brand products and customer-specific components are manufactured efficiently with due regard for the environment and employee safety while at the same time meeting customer requirements and expectations. The processes include:
- Tool design and construction: The process begins with the design and construction of tools necessary for manufacturing. This involves a choice of materials and technologies that ensure high quality and efficiency.
- Choice of manufacturing equipment for specific orders: Production equipment is selected based on the specific requirements of each order. This includes machinery, robots and other equipment necessary for meeting the customer's needs.
-
Production of plastic and composite solutions: In this phase, plastic and composite solutions are manufactured using energy in the form of electricity or gas. Employees, production equipment and robots work together to ensure efficient and high-precision manufacturing.
-
IT and other infrastructure: IT systems and other infrastructure support the entire manufacturing process, from design to finishing. This includes software for design, production planning and control and quality control.
- Finishing: After production, some items undergo various finishing processes such as printing, surface coating, welding, laser engraving, assembly and packing. These processes ensure that the products meet the required specifications and are ready for delivery.
- Handling of materials for recycling and waste: During and after production, materials for recycling and waste are handled in an environmentally friendly way. This includes sorting, reuse and proper waste disposal.
- Installation at customer locations: In some cases, manufactured plastic products are installed at customer sites. This applies primarily to Ergomat.
Our downstream value chain includes:
- Distribution: Sold products are transported to customers.
- Use: Some products are used directly by customers, while others are integrated in larger structures before being put into use.
- Disposal: After use, products made of thermoplastics can undergo further waste sorting and be sent for recycling. A small part of these products is returned to SP Group. Some products can only be used once, especially products used in the healthcare sector. These products are disposed of as waste.

Strategic goals and market position
Since 2018, we have aimed to contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through our products and operations, but also through concrete projects that make a difference for people and the environment, both locally and globally. The ESRS actions and targets set by SP Group, which are presented throughout this sustainability report, feed into SP Group's strategic SDG work.
Strategic SDGs

Health and wellbeing
We manufacture a range of products for the Healthcare industry, including Ergomat's ergonomic matting, SP Medical's guide wires, MedicoPack's packaging for pharmaceuticals and SP Meditec's plastic components for medical device equipment. These products help prevent and cure diseases while increasing the quality of healthcare services to which everyone should have access. Healthcare products represent 39.8% of our total revenue. See note 3 to the consolidated financial statements.
We contribute to good health and wellbeing by securing and creating workplaces with a healthy dialogue, opportunities for personal development and a constant focus on safety, e.g. through the safe use and disposal of chemicals from our production.
We care that our subsidiaries are geographically located where people have the opportunity to thrive physically and mentally and have the opportunity to receive education and improve their standard of living.

Industry, innovation and infrastructure
Through the products we manufacture for the Cleantech industry, we have the opportunity to contribute to reduced energy consumption, production of renewable energy and efficient treatment of waste water. Customer-specific products and components produced by SP Group form part of applications repurposed from the Cleantech industry and used in new applications that are more energy efficient than the old applications. This part of SP Group's revenue accounts for 27.3% of total revenue. See note 3 to the consolidated financial statements.
By using better equipment and machinery, we reduce raw materials waste, which in turn reduces our impact on the environment and climate. To this end, we require that investments are made in equipment and machinery with increased energy efficiency and less waste of raw materials.
SP Group is dependent on transportation of our products and on electricity, the internet and uninterrupted access to raw materials. We are keen to enter into partnerships that support the development of processes that can contribute to positive change and sustainable development.

Responsible consumption and production
We strive to reduce the Group's waste volumes through preventive measures, by sorting into waste fractions and recycling surplus material from our production. This is why we and our customers are strongly focused on manufacturing products from regenerated materials.
Our source sorting of waste supports global efforts on recycling and transition to a circular economy. Thermoplastic industrial scrap is thus part of a circular use flow, whereby waste of natural resources is reduced.
This is facilitated by systematic monitoring and reporting on our consumption of raw materials and by continuously seeking to increase our use of regenerated materials from our own production as well as industrial scrap in the manufacturing of new products.
Regenerated materials represented 17.7% of the total volume of plastic materials purchased in 2025.
Our sustainability strategy and related targets are communicated in our annual sustainability report. The targets cover all our activities and are therefore relevant to both customers and other stakeholders.

Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model
For purposes of this sustainability report, the material impacts, risks and opportunities (IROs) we have identified in our materiality assessment are presented together with the thematic areas E1 Climate change, E5 Resource use and circular economy, S1 Own employees, S2 Workers in the value chain and G1 Governance.
SP Group continuously focuses on the origin of identified impacts, risks and opportunities and
how they can affect our business model and strategy. Concrete initiatives to reduce material negative impacts and risks and exploit opportunities will form part of the planning of our sustainability efforts going forward.
The resilience of our strategy and business model with respect to climate-related physical risks and transition risks is addressed and analysed on a regular basis
Based on experience from the first year of reporting, SP Group in 2025 revisited the double materiality assessment in order to ensure that the identified impacts, risks and opportunities (IROs) continue to reflect the Group's most material sustainability matters. In connection with this process, the time horizons for environmental IROs were adjusted to more accurately reflect short-, medium- and long-term perspectives. Moreover, some social impacts were no longer considered material, including the positive impact related to social dialogue and potential negative impacts related to freedom of association and labour rights with respect to information, consultation and participation rights and employees' privacy, as these matters are widely regulated in the jurisdictions in which the majority of the Group's employees are located.
SP Group continuously focuses on the origin of identified impacts, risks and opportunities and how they can affect our business model and strategy.

ESRS 2 – Impacts, risks and opportunities (IRO)
IRO-1
Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities
The DMA is reviewed and updated at least once a year as an integral part of SP Group's annual wheel. In 2025, the steering committee conducted the annual review and concluded that – in the absence of changes in the Group's upstream and downstream activities, geographical presence, business relationships or value chain composition – there was no basis for identifying additional material impacts, risks or opportunities. One opportunity has changed to a risk and a few impacts are no longer considered material. The IRO overview under SBM-3 is therefore not comparable with the overview in the 2024 sustainability report.
In connection with the acquisition of Idé-Pro, it was assessed that its business model and value chain were in line with SP Group's other business processes, and no material new IROs arose from the acquisition.
Identification of impacts, risks and opportunities
The initial phase included a desk study with an assessment of SASB standards, providing a sector-specific perspective and possible inclusion of entity-specific topics, which were then supplemented by interviews with the SP Group steering committee. The steering committee consisted of two members of the Executive Board and our ESG manager together with our Group CEO, who participated in the decision-making processes.
In the understanding phase, we focused on mapping the Group's activities, business relations, value chain and affected stakeholders to identify material ESRS standards.
In the identification phase, impacts, risks and opportunities were identified and ESRS standards and subtopics that did not have material impacts, risks and opportunities for our business model were excluded from the further process.
Following the initial phase, an additional three phases were carried out:
-
Understanding phase: Documentation of business model and value chain.
-
Identification phase: Impacts, risks and opportunities (IROs) were identified for the ESG areas Environment, Social and Governance. They were also identified based on short-term (within the reporting year), medium-term (end of the reporting year up to 5 years) and long-term (5 years plus) time horizons.
-
Assessment phase: Scoring of identified impacts, risks and opportunities to identify material impacts, risks and opportunities.

Materiality assessment methodology
During the assessment phase, the materiality methodology defined in the CSRD and the underlying ESRS reporting standards was applied in the assessment, scoring and prioritising of impacts, risks and opportunities on a scale from 1 to 5, with 1 being the lowest score.
Societal materiality was assessed by the scale, scope, irremediability and likelihood of impacts (based on whether an impact is positive/negative and actual/potential) for the ESRS standards on Climate change, Resource use and circular economy, Own workers, Workers in the value chain and Governance.
Financial materiality was assessed according to the financial scope of risk/opportunities and the likelihood of the financial effect.
An impact, risk or opportunity is deemed to be material if it is assessed to be above the threshold.
The thresholds were set to reflect past practice and allow comparisons to be made with previous reporting.
Threshold for societal
materiality of impacts
E and G ≥ 3
S ≥ 2.5
Threshold for financial materiality of risks and opportunities
≥ 3
Areas of increased risk
We operate in several geographies associated with increased risk. However, all companies are under Danish management, which ensures the application of international standards for safety, quality and environment. Therefore, no special significance is assigned to these areas in relation to the risk of negative impacts.
Stakeholder involvement
The DMA was based on organisational knowledge from the day-to-day operations of our companies and the representation of the Executive Board in 100% of the boards of directors. The organisational knowledge reflects stakeholder needs and interests.
Management and monitoring
Management and subsequent monitoring of impacts, risks and opportunities are described in more detail in 'GOV-5'.
From DMA to ESRS datapoints
All impacts, risks and opportunities assessed to be above the materiality threshold formed the basis of a list of ESRS datapoints. With the application of information materiality, these were consolidated into the final list of ESRS datapoints that forms the basis of SP Group's sustainability reporting.

Result of the identification and assessment phase
As part of the DMA process, we identified impacts, risks and opportunities across the value chain (upstream, downstream and own operations) for all ESG areas set out in the ESRS. In identifying material risks, we distinguished between physical and climate-related transition risks. SP Group has therefore not conducted any further specific scenarios or analyses to identify and assess additional short-, medium- and long-term impacts, risks and opportunities in the mentioned areas.
Material sustainability standards
Material impacts, risks and opportunities were assessed to exist in the areas E1 Climate change, E5 Resource use and circular economy, S1 Own workforce, S2 Workers in the value chain and G1 Governance.
E1 Climate change:
GHG emissions throughout the value chain from transportation and operations at production facilities increase the risk of climate change. Extreme weather incidents may in the short term cause local transient disruptions in deliveries from the upstream value chain and thereby affect the Group's operations locally. In the long term, this situation may cause resource scarcity. The transition to operations with reduced emission levels may have financial consequences for SP Group in the short term. Access to renewable energy sources may vary significantly on a regional scale and over time and may therefore slow down the pace of implementation. Energy-saving initiatives in own activities may contribute to cost reductions.
E5 Resource use and circular economy:
SP Group relies on significant amounts of raw materials and packaging in our production. As we rely on stable supplies, shortages in the upstream value chain may result in resource constraints in our production. SP Group prioritises resource efficiency and works actively with sorting and recycling of plastics from our own production. However, the Group has no control over the further life cycle of packaging after the products have left our factories and move through the downstream value chain.
G1 Governance:
Our business practices and good business conduct affect our productivity, confidence from the value chain and retention of our own employees. Corporate culture, corruption and bribery may have a negative impact on the value chain, with the risk of harming SP Group's reputation. We manage this risk by training all employees of the Group.
Non-material sustainability standards
E2 Pollution and E3 Water were assessed to be non-material in the assessment phase, while E4 Biodiversity was already assessed to be non-material in the identification phase. It was emphasised that the Group complies with legal requirements, applies standards and has not had any incidents in the areas mentioned. Also, the level of cost risk is low.
E2 Pollution:
Our production and upstream value chain are associated with a risk of pollution of air, water and soil with, for example, microplastics and substances of very high concern (SVHC). Microplastics associated with production are plastic pellets and powders, which in the manufacturing process are transformed into larger plastic components that do not pollute air, water or soil in the downstream value chain. Pollution is not assessed to be determined by physical or transitional conditions in the countries in which we have manufacturing activities, nor is it affected by external pollution incidents.
E3 Water and marine resources:
The Group's consumption of water is relatively low. Our consumption is related to some of our production processes in which water is used for cooling and general sanitary purposes. Water is not extracted directly from local aquatic environments or water and marine resources but is supplied by external water suppliers in areas with no identified water scarcity. Water is discharged as waste water in the local sewage systems.
E4 Biodiversity and ecosystems:
We are aware that our activities and raw materials may affect biodiversity and ecosystems. However, we do not anticipate any biodiversity or ecosystem-related issues that will materially affect our production or financial position in the short or long term. We do not own, lease or manage land located in or near protected, biodiversity-sensitive areas, and our land use is relatively limited.

Climate change
SP Group's business model incorporates sustainability considerations. It is important to SP Group that we can grow the Group's earnings and activities in a responsible manner. Investments in more energy-efficient machinery and equipment not only help reduce the environmental impact of our energy consumption but can also have a positive effect on the Group's earnings. Consequently, these initiatives represent a financial opportunity for SP Group.
We are aware that our products increase the use of plastics. As a consequence, we take active responsibility for developing our business and production in a way that increasingly reduces negative environmental impacts and contributes to a sustainable development and the transition to a circular economy. Going forward, we will seek to use the screening criteria of the Taxonomy Regulation for input as far as possible before commencing activities. We do not have any activities that exclude us from the EU Paris-aligned benchmarks (EU PABs).
Over the past year, we have continued our efforts to integrate sustainability into our business model, with a particular focus on value creation through the recycling of plastics in our production and the use of both our own surplus materials from production and regenerated materials and
raw materials from other players in the plastics industry.
These efforts should be viewed in light of the global climate challenges and the goal of the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5°C.

Transition plan for climate change mitigation
SP Group does not have a transition plan for climate change mitigation but has for many years been driven by an ambition to contribute to the transition. Over the years, this ambition has led to a wide range of initiatives and investments in our manufacturing entities. Historical data for the resulting decarbonisation are available on our website in annual reports from before 2024.
SP Group's climate change mitigation ambitions have been adopted by the Executive Board and include strategic goals for 2030 that support the transition to a sustainable economy and are inspired by the goal of the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5°C.
Implementation of our ambitions is a natural part of the companies' day-to-day operations and is secured through ongoing investments as and when needed, giving high priority to sustainable perspectives in the chosen solutions. Our CapEx for buildings, machinery and equipment amounted to DKK 256 million in 2025. For additions, see notes 14, 15 and 16 to the consolidated financial
Strategic goals
- Transitioning to renewable energy: By 2030, our entire production will switch to renewable energy sources, thereby reducing the reliance on fossil fuels and making a direct contribution to global climate goals. At the same time, we aim to contribute to the financing of green electricity for the electricity grid.
- Carbon neutrality in Scope 1 and Scope 2: We aim to be completely carbon neutral with respect to both direct and indirect emissions from energy consumption.
- Contribution to energy optimisation and sustainable solutions: We are committed to supporting the green transition by offering state-of-the-art plastics solutions that contribute to energy optimisation, insulation, clean water and clean air. In this way, we help customers and society reduce energy consumption and GHG emissions.
To achieve these goals, SP Group is implementing the following actions on an ongoing basis:
- Transitioning to renewable energy: Establishment of solar panel systems at factories, purchase of certificates, signing of power purchase agreements and conversion of car fleet.
- Investments in energy-efficient equipment: Ongoing investments in new equipment to reduce energy consumption and increase efficiency, including reduction of gas-consuming activities.
-
Materials and process optimisation: Substitution of regenerated materials for primary materials and optimisation of internal production processes to save energy.
-
Design for circularity: Engaging with customers about the design of products and packaging that can be included in a circular process after end of use and reduction of the volume of raw materials used.
- Climate-friendly corporate culture: The corporate culture supports the commitment to sustainable production and management through incentive programmes, employee involvement in reporting and training.
- Partnerships: Participation in industry initiatives and collaborations to share experience in sustainable production and management, as well as entering into a partnership to establish a solar park in Stourup, Denmark.

statements. For 2026, we expect total investments of approximately DKK 140 million.
The ability to transition to renewable energy depends on available energy sources or energy supply over which we have no influence, as well as financial resources for replacing machinery and equipment.
In 2025, we initiated a mapping of SP Group's remaining carbon emissions in order to obtain a documented insight into the amount of our locked-in emissions. This mapping is expected to be finalised in 2026 and is intended to be the first step in our establishment of a transition plan with an associated CapEx plan for implementing the transition. This will also contribute to providing greater insight into our expected reduction of GHG emissions. We expect the work of identifying and establishing a transition plan to continue throughout 2026. In this context, we will also revisit our targets, including the target baselines, in order to assess whether they are still realistic or whether adjustments are needed.
Our ambitions form an integral part of our strategic sustainability goals, which are based on SDG 9 – Industry, innovation and infrastructure and SDG 12 – Responsible consumption and production. These are described in the section on SBM-1 and E1-4 targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation.

Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation
SP Group has drafted an ESG Policy with a separate section on environment and climate that addresses climate change.
The section indicates which areas are covered by the Policy and how the selected areas are addressed.
Key stakeholders in relation to the ESG Policy's provisions on climate change include customers, investors and banks.
The ESG Policy embraces the identified IROs. The Policy applies to all parts of the Group, including both employees and suppliers, regardless of geography. The EGS Policy is approved by the Board of Directors and is available on our website.

Excerpts from our ESG Policy: Environment and climate
Climate change is a reality, and at SP Group we aim to continuously adapt our business and activities to these changes, and we will seek to mitigate climate change through a number of initiatives to reduce our GHG emissions. The transition to the use and production of renewable energy, energy efficiency improvements and the development of environmentally friendly production technologies will contribute to mitigation.
Through the companies' ISO 14001 - certified environmental management systems, we will systematically work to reduce our impact on the environment and promote greater environmental responsibility. To this end, we aim to limit our consumption of heating, water and energy as well as noise, odour and dust nuisance. We aim to reuse materials and products, optimise the consumption of raw materials and use environmentally friendly materials in production and development processes.

Actions and resources related to climate change policies
To address the negative impacts of fossil fuels, we have in recent years taken mitigating measures to ensure a more sustainable energy mix. This involves transitioning to more renewable energy sources through the financing of a solar park and the installation of solar panels on rooftops and in front of production facilities. In 2025, as part of SP Group's efforts to reduce direct and indirect GHG emissions, we expanded our electric vehicle fleet and invested in new equipment and more efficient production machinery. In terms of taxonomy reporting, none of these actions fall into categories or are of a magnitude that require reporting under the Taxonomy Regulation.
Actions going forward rely on the availability of renewable energy and allocation of financial resources to investments in machinery and equipment. The actions are implemented at the initiative of the companies and reflect local needs. The GHG emission reductions expected to be achieved through these actions will be further mapped in connection with the establishment of a
transition plan, as mentioned in 'E1-1 Transition plan for climate change mitigation'.
SP Group's key actions are set out in the table on page 73. The case stories below are examples of such actions from the Group and our subsidiaries. They illustrate the different forms that such actions may take across SP Group. Achieving our ambitions and goals is not possible without the actions of our subsidiaries, and it is therefore important for us to communicate these case stories to our customers, employees, local communities, investors and banks.


New compressed air system
As part of SP Group's strategic goal of carbon neutrality, in which energy-efficient equipment is included in the actions to reduce carbon emissions (see 'Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation'), SP Tinby in Poland has invested in a new compressed air system supplying compressed air to the company's two buildings. In plastics production, the use of compressed air consumes a significant amount of energy, and efficient operation of these systems therefore has a large impact on overall electricity consumption. SP Tinby in Poland is ISO 14001 certified, and through its systematic environmental efforts, the company has analysed the production's energy consumption. The investment in the new compressed air system has been identified as an environment-improving measure. The compressed air system was put into operation in the fourth quarter of 2024. The same period of 2025 shows a relative reduction of 205.1 MWh, or 165.7 tonnes $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ .
The investment included replacing and optimising the compressor solutions with more energy-efficient units and improved system control. In addition to reducing energy consumption, the modernisation of the system contributes to ensuring a more stable and reliable supply of compressed air for the production process.
Stourup solar park
In 2025, SP Group continued work on the establishment of the Stourup Solar Park near Juelsminde, in support of SP Group's strategic objective of achieving carbon neutrality for market-based Scope 2 emissions. Construction of the solar park is nearing completion, and it is planned that the facility will be fully operational in early April 2026.
The solar park is being realised through the company Juelsmindehalvaens Solar A/S, established by SP Group A/S together with Palsgaard A/S and Jual Group A/S. SP Group holds an ownership interest of $20.51\%$ , as set out in Note 17 of the Annual Accounts.
The solar park, in which SP Group holds a partial ownership interest, is expected to have an annual production capacity of approximately 60 GWh, equivalent to the electricity consumption of approximately 15,000 households. By comparison, SP Group's total electricity consumption in 2025 was 65.5 GWh, of which the Danish entities accounted for 25.5 GWh. From early 2028 until 2036, SP Group has committed to off-taking $50\%$ of the green electricity produced by the solar park. Until 2028, the green electricity generated by the solar park will be sold to the electricity grid. At the outset of the project, calculations indicated that SP Group's share of the green electricity produced from 2028 onwards would exceed the total consumption of the Danish entities. Following the acquisition of the Danish company Idé-Pro BE Holding ApS, the combined electricity consumption of the Danish entities is expected to exceed SP Group's share of the electricity produced, thereby providing anticipated coverage equivalent to $85 - 90\%$ of SP Group's total electricity consumption in Denmark.

Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation
A key prerequisite for SP Group's work on climate change mitigation and adaptation is the systematic approach to environmental management across our subsidiaries. Several of our subsidiaries are certified according to ISO 14001, which ensures a structured and continuous process for identifying, assessing, and prioritising environmental impacts as well as implementing improvement measures. The ISO 14001 certification helps ensure that ongoing analyses of environmental and energy performance are conducted within each subsidiary. This provides a solid data foundation for identifying areas where energy consumption and $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ emissions can be reduced. Through this process, opportunities are identified for energy efficiency improvements, process optimisation and increased electrification of production equipment.
Systematic environmental management thus supports the Group's work in setting and following up on targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation. At the same time, it ensures that improvement measures are implemented locally within subsidiaries on an informed basis and in accordance with applicable standards and best practices in environmental management.

Energy consumption and mix
SP Group's production processes are intensive and require considerable amounts of energy. The energy consumption primarily relates to electricity and gas for machinery, robots and lighting as well as heating of facilities.
Access to renewable energy sources may vary significantly on a regional scale and over time due to a lack of energy saving/storage options. Energy consumption and energy intensity are therefore considered an important factor in our operations.
To address the negative impacts of fossil fuels, we have taken mitigation measures to ensure a more sustainable energy mix. This includes switching to energy produced via solar panels and converting our car fleet to electric cars.
In 2025, we experienced a $3.5\%$ increase in total energy consumption compared to 2024. This development should be seen in light of fluctuations in our product mix and production activities.

The increase was primarily due to a shift towards a higher share of energy-intensive products, which require more advanced processing, longer production times or higher temperatures during manufacturing. Driven by business conditions, these product types naturally contribute to higher energy consumption. We continue our efforts to reduce energy consumption per unit produced through investments in more energy-efficient equipment, process optimisation and increased use of renewable energy sources.
The relative distribution of our energy consumption is illustrated in figure 4, which shows that the share of total fossil energy consumption is decreasing.
Own energy production
We produce energy from our own solar panel systems established at the factories in Finland, Poland and Slovakia.
Locally sourced gas is converted into heat by incineration. The main consumption is in companies in Denmark, Finland, Latvia, Poland, China and the US.

Gross GHG emissions
SP Group's business model and value chain contribute directly and indirectly to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through the sourcing of materials, transport along the value chain and operation of production facilities. Our CO₂e emissions from Scope 1 (direct emissions) and Scope 2 (indirect emissions) primarily relate to district heating, electricity and gas purchased and used for heating and production activities.
The largest CO₂e emissions in our value chain stem from upstream and downstream production and transport of raw materials and machinery (Scope 3 – indirect emissions). Raw materials are sourced from high climate impact sectors (Category 1) Raw materials are transported across borders and on a global scale by sea, road and air freight (Category 4).
CO₂e emissions
SP Group has a strategic goal of being carbon neutral in Scope 1 and 2 by 2030. Our Scope 1 CO₂e emissions fell by 1% in 2025 relative to 2024 as a result of an increased consumption of refrigerants that was outweighed by a reduced consumption of fossil fuels.
Scope 2 emissions were calculated according to the location-based and market-based methods.
In the period 2024-2025, we saw an increase in the total power consumption, which has been covered in part by purchases of certificates and power generated from our own solar panels, contributing to the 4% reduction of market-based Scope 2 CO₂e emissions relative to 2024.
Market-based Scope 2 emissions also declined by 4%, also impacted by the purchase of certificates and power generated from own solar panels.
Scope 3 emissions included only the following GHG categories: purchased goods (1), fuel- and energy-related activities (3), upstream transportation and distribution (4) and downstream transportation (9). No data are available for Categories 4 and 9 for the 2023 baseline year, and emissions for the other categories, 2, 5-8 and 10-15, have not been calculated.
In the market-based calculation, Scope 3 represented 92% of total CO₂e emissions, in line with the 2024 level.

Scope 3: $\mathrm{CO}_{2} \mathrm{e}$ emissions
Indirect Scope 3 GHG emissions (tonnes $\mathrm{CO}_{2} \mathrm{e}$ )
Scope 3 emissions are reported based on the GHG Protocol, and the scope of reporting was prioritized based on the conclusions from SP Gibo A/S' participation in the 2021 Danish 'Klimaklar SMV' initiative based on data from the 2018 $\mathrm{CO}{2}$ accounts. The conclusion was that $94\%$ of total $\mathrm{CO}{2}\mathrm{e}$ emissions came from Scope 3, of which $90\%$ derived from Category 1, purchases of plastics raw materials for production. The conclusions of the Klimaklar project are still deemed to be representative of SP Group's business activities and value chain.
Categories 4 and 9 deviate from the GHG Protocol in that Category 4 includes all emissions from transport and distribution services that the companies pay for, while Category 9 includes all emissions from transport and distribution services that the companies do not pay for.
SP Group's Scope 3 emissions cover the following categories:
Category 1, Purchased goods and services
Category 3, Fuel- and energy-related activities
Category 4+9, Upstream and downstream transportation
Category 4+9, Upstream and downstream distribution
We have set a materiality threshold for total Scope 3 emissions, which means that Categories 1, 3, 4 and 9 are currently material and will be reported on. Assessed on the basis of the results of 'Klimaklar SMV', $90\%$ of these emissions are accounted for by Category 1.
For upstream and downstream transportation, we primarily use supplier data and the distance-based method. The reporting includes:
- Transportation of raw materials sourced for production
- Delivery, repair and maintenance of moulds and tools used in manufacturing.
- Goods delivered to customers.
For other transportation, the spend-based method is applied.

$$
Primary and secondary Scope 3 data are defined as:
- Category 1: Primary data are actual purchase volumes.
- Category 4-9: Primary data are specific emission sources, for example obtained through life cycle assessments (LCAs), supplier-specific emission factors or on-site measurements. Secondary data are obtained from external sources, including industry databases, published studies and general estimates.

ESRS E5 – Resources and circular economy
E5 Resource use and circular economy
SP Group purchases large quantities of raw materials that include many resources. Among these raw materials are plastic granules, resins, sheets and powders.
We sell a wide range of products, which primarily consist of plastic products. As we are a sub-supplier, our plastic products are mainly used as components of our customers' end-products. This results in large quantities of packaging (wood, cardboard and plastics). The companies have no control over what happens with the products and the packaging after they leave our factories, unless return agreements have been concluded.
We sort our waste in accordance with regulations and standards as well as with concrete options for waste sorting in the countries and areas where we operate.
The high consumption of raw materials is a necessity for our operations and entails dependencies on available raw materials. Resource scarcity can have negative production and financial impacts, but also foster new ways of thinking in relation to the recycling of materials. The dialogue and engagement with our stakeholders in the upstream and downstream value chain provides insights into new materials and recycling methods.
E5-1 Policies related to resource use and circular economy
SP Group has drawn up an ESG Policy with a separate environment and climate section that concerns raw materials and circular economy. The section is inserted below and indicates which areas are covered by the Policy and how the selected areas are addressed.
Key stakeholders in relation to the ESG Policy's provisions on resource consumption and circular economy include customers, suppliers and employees.
The ESG Policy embraces the identified IROs. The Policy applies to all parts of the Group, including both employees and suppliers, regardless of geography. The EGS Policy is approved by the Board of Directors and is available on our website.
Excerpts from our ESG Policy: Raw materials and circular economy
At SP Group, we are aware that a very large part of our raw materials is produced by means of fossil sources. We therefore take active responsibility for developing our business and production in a responsible way that increasingly reduces negative environmental impacts and contributes to sustainable development and the transition to a circular economy.
Raw materials are sourced according to the companies' ISO 9001- and ISO 14001-certified quality and environmental management systems. This ensures that we comply with all environmental directives, including REACH, the Candidate List of Substances of Very High Concern and the RoHS Directive.
REACH, the Candidate List of Substances of Very High Concern and the RoHS Directive.
Sustainable use is achieved by pushing the recycling of plastics in our production as well as the utilisation of our own surplus materials from production and regenerated materials from other players in the plastics industry.
In addition, we limit wastage and waste volumes, which are sorted for purposes of recycling in a circular process.

Actions and resources related to resource use and circular economy
As part of SP Group's work to sharpen our focus on resource use, we continued to work with our customers on the use of bioplastics and regenerated materials and on reuse and use of surplus materials in 2025. These actions were implemented in our downstream and upstream value chain as well as in our own processes and extend into the identified IROs.
Our actions going forward rely on continued customer demand for circular product design and on available disposal systems for sorted waste in the geographical areas where we operate.
SP Group's key actions are set out in the table on page 73. The case stories below are examples of such actions from the Group and our subsidiaries. They illustrate the different forms that such actions may take across SP Group. Achieving our ambitions and goals is not possible without the actions of our subsidiaries, and it is therefore important for us to communicate these case stories to our customers, employees, local communities, investors and banks.

Recycling SLS powder from 3D printing
DAVINCI 3D works systematically on reducing resource consumption in additive manufacturing processes, and as part of these efforts, the company has formed a collaboration with a specialised partner in Germany on recycling SLS powder used in 3D printing. This initiative contributes to SP Group's strategic goal to transition to a circular economy in which industrial waste is recycled as raw materials.
In the course of the process, excess and used SLS powder from production is collected and subsequently purified and processed into new printable material. The recycled powder can subsequently be used in production and become part of a closed materials cycle where the need for virgin raw materials is reduced.
The solution was tested and applied in pilot production in 2025, and DAVINCI 3D expects to be able to offer customers products made using recycled SLS powder as part of its product portfolio from 2026.

Enhanced resource efficiency in the production of flexible PUR foam chairs
SP Tinby Danmark works systematically to reduce materials consumption and waste when manufacturing flexible PUR foam chairs incorporating wooden components as internal reinforcements. The company has developed a process for recovering wooden inlays from PUR foam chairs. By means of CNC processing, the PUR foam is accurately removed from the wooden components, enabling the materials to be effectively separated. The wooden inlays can subsequently be recovered, with no PUR residues, and applied in new production orders.
The solution contributes to SP Group's strategic goal for the circular use of raw materials, where the inflow of resources in this case supports a more efficient utilisation of raw materials by extending the lifespan of wooden components and reducing the need for newly produced wooden inlays. The initiative supports SP Tinby's resource optimisation efforts and also contributes to SP Group's strategic goal to transition to a circular economy in which products that were previously disposed of are now recycled.
Zero production waste through in-house recycling of plastics
As part of SP Group's strategic goal to transition to a circular economy, SP Gibo Poland works systematically to reduce waste and promote circular materials flows in production. As part of these efforts, the company has developed a solution whereby all industrial waste from plastics processing is collected and recycled.
The production waste is ground in-house and subsequently sold for recycling and incorporation into new plastic products. This avoids production waste being disposed of in landfill or through incineration, while keeping materials in circulation for longer.
Thanks to this solution, SP Gibo Poland's production waste is no longer disposed of as waste but instead forms part of recycling chains. The initiative contributes to SP Group's strategic goal for the circular use of raw materials by promoting a more efficient use of resources and reducing the need for resource inflow in the form of new products.

Goals related to resource use and circular economy
In connection with our efforts in relation to resource consumption and a circular economy, the Executive Board, senior executives and senior managers have launched a number of actions and targets. The targets are not scientifically based, but have been set based on our current level and experience as well as the conviction that the individual countries will successfully develop waste sorting systems. The actions extend into the identified IROs and are important
to achieving SP Group's goals. Achieving the goal of circular use relies on customers' demand for recycled materials for their product designs.
The goal of increased use of regenerated materials and bioplastics and the goal of recycling packaging components are voluntary and have therefore not been set with a view to complying with statutory requirements. The target for waste sorting has been set to comply with local
legislation and, where there is no legislation, to promote a responsible waste sorting culture.
These targets and actions are aligned with the ESG Policy's section on raw materials and circular economy in our companies. The progress of efforts and the achievement of goals are monitored on an ongoing basis by the companies and on a quarterly basis by their boards of directors.

Resource inflows
Resources are supplied to the companies for the manufacture of products, components and production tools. The composition of the resources supplied depends on the demand of SP Group's customers.
SP Group focuses on a circular economy combined with a goal of eliminating raw material waste, which in 2025 led to a 3.3% increase in the use of regenerated materials compared with 2024. Unfortunately, it was not possible in 2025 to maintain the proportion of regenerated materials relative to plastics purchased as a new product. The proportion was 19% in 2024 and 17.7% in 2025. This was due to the order mix of our customers.

Incoming resources
This includes the companies' most significant purchases of materials used for production and packaging, including plastics, glass fibres, resins, wood and cardboard. Volumes of steel and aluminium are primarily related to the purchase of moulds. Purchase volumes are derived from the companies' ERP systems.
In order to avoid double reporting, all purchases in each raw materials category that are resold within the Group are deducted.
Definitions:
- Regenerated materials are plastics that have undergone a recycling process and are thus reused.
- Biological materials are materials of biological origin that can enter the biological cycle and decompose naturally (composted or biodegraded) without harming ecosystems – provided they are not contaminated. For SP Group, this solely includes bio-based plastics.
Purchases of services such as cleaning, repairs, maintenance, audit or IT services are not included in the reporting, nor are resources related to buildings, machinery, equipment and suppliers.

Resource outflows
All SP Group's manufacturing entities are working systematically to reduce waste volumes and promote the recycling of plastic materials. The products and components made by the companies are predominantly made of plastic and composite materials, also referred to as thermoplastics and thermosetting plastics. Thermoplastics are distinguished by their ability to be recycled multiple times, as the material can be remelted and reprocessed repeatedly. Effective recycling requires collection, sorting and cleaning before the materials are granulated and incorporated into new products.
We are working actively to increase the recycling of production waste and by-products, including glass fibre, cardboard and metal. Our injection moulding plants have installed decentralised grinders ensuring that surplus material from the production of each component is immediately ground and led to a closed system together with the plastic material for the production of the next component. This process helps minimise waste and foster circular resource use in the production.
Deliveries from our companies are packed in a proper manner to ensure that products and components are not damaged during transportation. The packaging primarily consists of wood, cardboard and plastic foil that can be recycled.
Our waste primarily comes from the companies' production, warehousing, repair and maintenance activities and from their production engineering departments.
Waste is classified by means of the waste hierarchy set out in the EU Waste Framework Directive (Directive 2008/98/EC) and sorted into fractions defined by legislation or local practices. The companies' reported volumes of waste are based on their own data or data from suppliers. The total amount of waste fell by 10.8% in 2025 compared with 2024. The decline was primarily driven by the European SP Gibo companies, which sent 226.5 tonnes less plastic for external recycling than in 2024, and the relocation/cleaning up of the factory in Vordingborg, which generated 236 tonnes of waste in 2024.
The other waste data presented in the table on page 89 are not comparable between 2024 and 2025, as different methods were used for reporting and compiling data in the two reporting years. Restating the 2024 statement has not been possible. See the description in BP-2, 'Changes in the presentation of sustainability information'.

Reporting principles
Outbound products that can be recycled
This includes the volume of thermoplastics purchased in relation to the total volume of raw materials purchased for use in the production of components. The volume of thermoplastics sent for recycling with external plastic manufacturers and processors has been excluded from the calculation.
Definition:
- Thermoplastics = Virgin plastics and regrind material
- Thermosetting plastics = Other + glass fibre
Calculated as:
$$
\text{Volume of thermoplastics purchased} + \text{volume of thermoplastics sent for recycling} = \left[ \text{Volume of thermosetting plastics purchased} + \text{volume of thermoplastics purchased} + \text{volume of thermoplastics sent for recycling} \right] \times 100
$$
Outbound packaging that can be recycled
This includes the volume of purchased wood, cardboard and plastic foil.
Calculated as:
$$
\text{Volume of purchased wood} + \text{cardboard} + \text{plastic foil} = \left[ \text{Volume of packaging purchased} \right] \times 100
$$
Outbound resources - waste
This includes resources from the companies, which sort into the fractions residual waste, plastics, foil, wood, cardboard, metals and "other". For all fractions, it is reported whether the waste is "hazardous" or "non-hazardous."
- The residual waste fraction is reported for treatment by incineration, landfill or other disposal.
- The other fractions are reported for treatment by sorting for reuse, recycling or other recovery.
- The "other" fraction is classified as hazardous waste and includes, among other things, batteries and printer cartridges.
The largest volume originates from warehousing, manufacturing and maintenance activities
Calculation:
The company collecting the waste prepares a consolidated report of the quantities and communicates the collected amounts back to the companies.
The reported quantities form the basis of the reported waste.
Non-hazardous waste redirected from disposal to recycling has been restated for 2024.
This is because internal plastic scrap that is recycled in production is not considered waste, and it was therefore incorrect to include it in the waste report.
Calculation:
The volume is calculated upon collection by the undertaking responsible for the pickup, which reports the collected amounts back to the companies.

Taxonomy reporting
Taxonomy for sustainable investment
SP Group has performed a systematic assessment of all activities listed in the Taxonomy Regulation to identify the extent to which the Group's economic activities qualify as contributing substantially to the EU's climate goals of:
- Climate change mitigation
- Climate change adaptation
- Sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources
- Transition to a circular economy
- Pollution prevention and control
- Protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems
We have identified a number of economic activities that are comprised by the Taxonomy Regulation's activities. These activities are related to manufacturing, energy, transport, building and construction and real estate as well as services related to the energy performance of buildings.
Alignment
For each eligible activity, we are unable to meet at least one of the technical screening criteria. Therefore, we cannot declare alignment for any of our eligible activities. We are continuously working to reduce the environmental impact of our business. However, meeting all alignment requirements for our eligible activities is not a strategic priority for us.
Accounting policies
For the 2025 reporting year, we have implemented the changes set out in the EU Omnibus Directive. Applying the materiality threshold introduced implies that only activities that collectively exceed 10% must be reported. Consequently, reporting is therefore limited to CapEx and OpEx, and turnover is not reported separately.
Since our eligible taxonomy activities are very limited, the risk of double counting is considered very low. However, to ensure that the same amounts are not included multiple times, we reconcile against the underlying financial data to confirm that the total amounts are consistent with the figures in the financial statement notes.
Turnover
The turnover KPI is defined as Taxonomy-eligible turnover divided by total turnover. The consolidated turnover can be reconciled to our consolidated financial statements, see note 3 on page 133.
CapEx
The CapEx KPI is defined as Taxonomy-eligible CapEx divided by total CapEx. Total CapEx covers additions of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets before depreciation, amortisation and any readjustments. This includes purchases of property, plant and equipment, IFRS lease assets (IFRS 16) and additions relating to acquisitions, but does not include goodwill. Total additions can be reconciled to our total additions in notes 14, 15 and 16 on pages 140-142.
OpEx
The OpEx KPI is defined as Taxonomy-eligible OpEx divided by total OpEx. Total total OpEx includes development costs, property renovation, short-term leases, maintenance, operations and repairs and other direct expenses related to the routine maintenance of assets carried out by SP Group or third parties.

Own workforce
Our employees are instrumental in ensuring our strong strategic, operational, safety and financial performance. We take our responsibility to and impacts on our employees very seriously, as they are one of our most important stakeholder groups in terms of both interest and influence.
At SP Group, we are committed to carrying on our activities in a responsible manner, regardless of where in the world our business activities are located.
We work purposefully to ensure basic labour rights, which involves maintaining privacy through confidential handling and processing of personal data, focusing on creating a workplace free from harassment, bullying and violence and providing a safe, respectful and rewarding work life for the individual employee. We do this because we believe that this creates value both for the individual and for SP Group.
SP Group has not identified any operations posing a significant risk of child labour in relation to our own workforce. All companies across geographies are under Danish management, which ensures the application of international health and safety standards.
All manufacturing entities must implement a certified health and safety management system, ISO 45001, that documents health and safety efforts through the mapping of health and safety conditions and ensures that health and safety matters are addressed in a responsible manner.
Our efforts to obtain and maintain health and safety certifications extend beyond compliance with national statutory requirements and international conventions in the health and safety area.
We have a special focus on providing healthy working conditions and access to training and education for all our employees. The premise for these efforts is that everyone can participate.
At SP Group, we are committed to carrying on our activities in a responsible manner, regardless of where in the world our business activities are located.
Actively promoting diversity and equal opportunities for all groups is therefore very important to us.
The significant impacts, risks and opportunities identified in relation to our own employees' rights by means of the materiality assessment are described below, along with the policies, actions, measurements and goals we have implemented to address them.

Policies related to own workforce
SP Group's social responsibility policy is part of our ESG Policy.
The ESG Policy also includes policies on employment and labour conditions; human trafficking and forced labour, including child labour; women in management; diversity and discrimination, including on the grounds of age, gender, race and disability; human rights; data protection; and whistleblower programme.
The ESG Policy embraces the identified IROs. The Policy applies to all parts of the Group, including both employees and suppliers, regardless of geography. The ESG Policy is approved by the Board of Directors, is available on our website and is sent to all companies, which must enforce it and ensure compliance.
In SP Group's subsidiaries, the implementation of the ESG Policy is supported by ISO 45001 certifications. These certifications ensure that the subsidiaries have procedures in place to prevent and address material negative impacts. A list of subsidiary certifications may be found on page 44. The compliance with procedures and mechanisms embedded in the subsidiaries' management systems is audited by a third party with a view to obtaining and maintaining certifications.
Excerpts from our ESG Policy: Social responsibility
As a company with global operations, it is important to SP Group that we provide attractive working conditions for our employees and comply with international standards and local legislation for reasonable and fair working conditions. We also assume responsibility for respecting the human rights of both employees and people affected by our local activities.
To that end, we carry out systematic risk assessments and plan risk management in accordance with the UN Guiding Principles and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. As part of these efforts, we endeavour to engage in dialogue with employee representatives and other local community players.

Processes for engaging with own workforce and workers' representatives
The involvement of employees and their representatives is formalised in the companies through health and safety organisations, workplace assessments, union representatives and works councils, performance interviews, information meetings and internal audits. These forums, which have varying frequencies, help highlight the effects of SP Group's actions to mitigate negative impacts. The responsibility for engaging with the employees or their representatives lies with the local management teams of the subsidiaries.
In addition, the companies have established a number of channels through which employees can make suggestions for continuous improvements of working conditions, and the corporate culture also supports an informal dialogue.

Processes to remediate negative impacts and channels for own workforce to raise concerns
Through their ISO 45001 - certified management systems, SP Group's subsidiaries have established systematic processes to identify, manage and remedy material negative impacts on people within their own workforce. If the companies have caused or contributed to a negative impact, procedures for deviations, corrective actions and health and safety follow-up ensure that appropriate remedial measures are implemented. The effectiveness of these measures is continuously assessed through follow-up on deviations, internal audits, employee dialogue and management evaluations within the management system.
Employees and persons working on behalf of SP Group are encouraged to report concerns or complaints regarding harassment, alleged legally or financially inappropriate conduct or
other matters through SP Group's independent whistleblower programme, as detailed in G1-1 'Corporate culture and business conduct policies'. Through onboarding training and regular management communication, we ensure that our employees are familiar with these mechanisms and know how to use them. The whistleblower programme is anchored in our ESG Policy.
The employees of the companies can also use the internal channels to raise concerns about working conditions.

Taking action on material impacts on own workforce
Every day, SP Group carries out actions and initiatives to support and deliver on the Group's strategic goals concerning our own workforce. These actions and initiatives serve to prevent, mitigate and remedy our potential and actual material negative impacts on our employees. They also serve to address our material risks and pursue our material opportunities. These actions are listed in the table on page 97, which provides an overview of our efforts, results and future goals in relation to our employees.
Employee satisfaction surveys
Currently, employee satisfaction surveys are conducted decentrally within the respective companies. At SS Group, we are working towards establishing a common system for employee satisfaction surveys. These surveys will allow us to gather employees' input on experiences related to work-life balance, equal treatment and equal opportunities for all, including training and skills development, experiences regarding violence and harassment and SP Group as a workplace that embraces diversity. In 2025,
“Every day, SP Group carries out actions and initiatives to support and deliver on the Group's strategic ambitions and goals concerning our own workforce.
we strengthened our whistleblower system and made it accessible to employees who do not have access through the subsidiaries to channels for reporting concerns.

ISO 45001 certifications
At SP Group, we consider maintaining our companies' ISO 45001 certification essential in ensuring that we remain on track to achieve our strategic goals and address our material impacts, risks and opportunities in relation to our employees.
As part of the establishment of health and safety management systems in the companies, a systematic risk assessment of labour conditions is carried out. The risk assessment covers work processes, materials used and the use of machinery, tools and safety equipment as well as the physical and psychological working environment. Through risk assessments and collaboration with health and safety representatives, the companies receive input on where actions can be taken to strengthen work-life balance, training and skills development and ensure a safe and secure working environment with zero tolerance for violence and harassment, while maintaining a focus on diversity so that there is room for everyone.
The risks identified are managed through policies and rules, including for safety and preparedness as well as responsible conduct. These policies and rules are implemented through concrete measures such as technological adaptation to facilitate work tasks, aids, equipment and work instructions, training and instruction, upgrading of skills, flexible working conditions, health insurance and healthcare programmes and
communication on risks and implemented improvements.
Resources for the implementation of ISO 45001 certifications are allocated and covered by the respective subsidiaries.
In addition to the actions listed in the table that contribute directly to our defined targets, actions and initiatives that are not predefined are continuously developed and implemented across the Group. These actions are equally important in ensuring that, in addition to making progress on our targets, SP Group remains on track to achieve our strategic goals.
The following case stories are examples selected from among our subsidiaries of some of these actions. They illustrate how actions may differ across SP Group. Achieving our strategic goals in relation to our employees is not possible without the actions of our subsidiaries, and it is therefore important for us to communicate these case stories to our customers, employees, local communities, investors and banks.

ISO 45001 and systematic health and safety efforts
SP Group aims for 100% of our manufacturing entities to be ISO 45001-certified by 2028 or within three years of takeover. SP Gibo Poland is among those of our companies that have implemented ISO 45001. The certification ensures a systematic and structured approach to health and safety, where recording near-miss incidents and conducting safety inspections are actions that form important elements of the health and safety work.
As part of these efforts, a health and safety inspector performs monthly inspections of the facilities. Furthermore, a KPI has been established requiring a minimum of one improvement per week, documented through an 8D report. The company works actively with employee engagement and rewards proposals that improve working conditions. Every month, the three best employee ideas are selected. These measures support a culture of continuous improvements, prevention and shared responsibility for a safe and healthy working environment.
These measures support a culture of continuous improvements, prevention and shared responsibility for a safe and healthy working environment.
Ergonomics and organising work on the production floor
SP Group has a strategic ambition of promoting health and safety in the workplace. In this connection, SP Tinby has taken active steps to improve health and safety among the employees manufacturing foil bags for the wind turbine industry.
SP Tinby manufactures large, resource-intensive components, and this places heavy demands on the physical working conditions of its employees. Measures included optimising the organisation of work, manning and shift planning in order to ensure more stable and appropriate working conditions. At the same time, the foil rewinding machines were upgraded with integrated workbench lifting systems.
These measures have reduced physical strain and heavy lifting, while also improving ergonomic conditions on the production floor.
Ergonomics and improving processes in the assembly area
SP Gibo China has improved health and safety in the assembly area by introducing a specially designed, height-adjustable lifting table for handling large and complex products.
Previously, this work involved awkward working postures and an increased risk of physical strain. The new lifting table allows the employees to work in a more natural and safe posture, thereby reducing heavy lifting and physically demanding movements.
This initiative has improved ergonomics and supports SP Group's strategic ambition to promote health and safety in the workplace.
Enhanced workplace safety in the rotational moulding area
SP Gibo China has enhanced workplace safety in the rotational moulding area by introducing a mobile, stable safety ladder for loading materials into elevated moulds.
Previously, this work process involved awkward working postures and an increased risk of losing balance. The new solution allows employees to work in an ergonomically correct and safer posture, reducing the risk of falls and physical strain and contributing to SP Group's strategic ambition to promote health and safety in the workplace.

Goals related to own workforce
As part of our work on social conditions for our own workforce, SP Group has launched a number of actions and goals that are important to achieving our strategic goals. The goals were implemented in 2024 and were not changed in 2025. Achieving these goals requires us to obtain occupational health and safety certifications to ensure a safe and healthy working environment. We maintain our focus on statutory requirements regarding the representation of the underrepresented gender at management levels.
The ISO 45001 - certified subsidiaries have their own goals, which are set and monitored in cooperation with the health and safety organisations. The goals are set in connection with the statutory annual review.
In order to support subsidiaries that are not yet certified, SP Group's Executive Board and ESG manager have defined the following goals and actions.

Collective bargaining coverage and social dialogue
The absence of official processes for engaging in social dialogue may have a significant negative impact on employees' working conditions and employment relationships.
A large part of SP Group's workforce is employed outside Denmark, where collective agreements are not as well established and regulated as in Denmark. If employees are unable or not allowed to unionise and negotiate collective terms, this will constitute a breach of local labour law rules,
which has an adverse effect on the employees' ability to influence their own working conditions.
At SP Group, the use of collective agreements for regulating terms of employment depends on the geographical and cultural context of the companies. SP Group is Danish-owned and Danish-managed, and the Danish model for the protection of workers is therefore embedded in our culture.

All our employees have freedom of association and have the right to express their opinions and participate in or elect representatives to collective bodies. Employees of the Danish entities appoint representatives for works councils and health and safety committees, in which they meet with local management. SP Group has not made an agreement with the employees on representation on a European works council (EWC) or the like.
Among the employees of our companies in the EEA, 32.1% are covered by collective agreements. The majority of these are employed in Denmark. Social dialogues have been established in Denmark and Poland, where 47.5% and 100%, respectively, of the employees are covered by workers' representation.

Diversity metrics
SP Group's operations are decentralised, and the subsidiaries have a broad mandate to manage their operations and act autonomously. A lack of focus on clear guidelines from SP Group can lead to exclusionary conduct, fewer social and professional opportunities for certain employee groups and a culture that does not actively promote
respect and equality. This may have a negative impact on employees, workplace culture and society at large.
At SP Group, we are committed to diversity and inclusion. We strive to create an inclusive culture where employees can be their authentic selves,

In 2025, 11 management positions were advertised in SP Group and our subsidiaries. In line with our objective of having representation of both genders in the recruitment process, both genders were represented in six of the advertised positions, corresponding to 54.5% of the advertised positions. The lack of representation of both genders is due to the absence of applicants from both genders.

Health and safety
Health and safety risks can lead to injuries or illness, long-term health effects, disability and psychological consequences for employees. These risks are particularly pronounced for skilled and unskilled workers at production sites.
SP Group wants to create a safe and healthy working environment for our employees. This is achieved through the companies' systematic health and safety management and investments in machinery offering good working conditions. The use of the machinery should generally benefit the employees. Employees are involved in the
planning of workspace layout as well as the location of the machines to ensure maximum benefits for employees, optimise the working environment and efficiency and reduce the risk of work-related accidents. Worktime lost due to accidents was calculated at a rate of accidents of 10.3 (LTIFR) in 2025 (2024: 11.2).
The companies are required to report accidents on a quarterly basis and to establish corrective and preventive actions.

Reporting principles (continued)
Work-related ill health
(Cases of work-related disorders)
Cases of work-related illness/ill health recorded in the Group's systems, reported in the companies or identified by the companies based on medical surveillance during the reporting period.
The reporting may include cases of work-related ill health discovered during the reporting period among persons who were previously part of the workforce.
Days lost
Days lost are calculated as the number of days lost (as work-related injuries and fatalities as a result of work-related accidents and work-related ill health and fatalities as a result of ill health), including the first full day and the last day of absence. The calculation is based on calendar days, to the effect that days when the affected person is not scheduled for work (e.g. weekends, holidays) count as days lost.
Occupational injury rate
Calculated as:
$$
= \left{ \frac{\text{Number of incidents}}{\text{Total number of working hours}} \right} \times 1,000,000

A strong driver of employee satisfaction and retention is sustained focus on a working life where employees experience influence, meaningfulness and flexibility. Unhappy employees opting to leave SP Group may result in labour shortages and may pose a potential risk to SP Group.
SP Group wants our employees to have the feeling of balance between their work and private life. Established health and safety management systems support a healthy culture within the companies. Through risk assessments and the daily dialogue between health and safety representatives and employees, there is a focus on work-life balance. The production employees have the opportunity to work either day, evening or night shifts and our administrative employees have the opportunity to work from home. Both arrangements contribute positively to our employees' ability to individually adjust their work-life balance. All employees of our companies also have the right to take family-related leave. Employees' experience of work-life balance is measured through employee satisfaction surveys.
| Work-life balance | Unit | 2025 | 2024 |

Compensation metrics
A gender pay gap is unreasonable and unfair and may lead to a lack of motivation and poor job satisfaction for the underpaid gender. In connection with the introduction of the EU Pay Transparency Directive in 2026, SP Group has initiated discussions on how to implement the directive.
We recognise employees' right to equal pay for men and women. The actual figures for 2025 have therefore been analysed and compared with 2024.
In the calculations of the gender pay gap as well as the remuneration ratio, all pay components are included, including pensions, guaranteed allowances, employer obligations, short-term incentives, long-term incentives, etc. All employees who received a salary or wages in 2025 are included, while student assistants, young workers and employees on leave are excluded.
Gender pay gap
The gender pay gap has been calculated at 25.5%. As in 2024, the difference is primarily due to a higher proportion of men in leadership positions compared to women. Although men still constitute the majority in the highest-paid positions, their share has decreased compared to previous years, indicating a positive development.

Remuneration ratio
The remuneration ratio fell from 28.5 in 2024 to 16.4 in 2025. This decrease is due to bonus payments for 2025 not being at the same level as in 2024.

Reporting principle
Gender pay gap
The difference in average hourly pay between female and male employees is expressed as a percentage of the average hourly pay for male employees.
Calculated as:
$$
= \left(\frac{\text{Avg. gross hourly pay for men}}{\text{Avg. gross hourly pay for women}}\right) \times 100
$$
In 2025, a methodological improvement was made in the calculation, as only fixed pay components were included in 2024, whereas in 2025 all pay components were included. The improved method did not result in any changes to the 2024 figures.
Annual remuneration ratio
The annual total remuneration of the highest paid individual to the median annual total remuneration for all employees (excluding the highest paid individual). The calculation of the remuneration ratio is annualised for employees who were not employed for the full period, based on standard working hours.
Calculated as:
$$
= \left(\frac{\text{Annual remuneration of the highest paid individual}}{\text{Annual remuneration to the median for all employees}}\right) \times 100
$$
In 2025, a methodological improvement was made in the calculation, as in 2024 only employees who were employed for the entire year were included, and part-time employees were excluded. In 2025, all employees who are employed are included; however, student assistants, young workers and employees on leave are excluded. For employees who were not employed for the entire year of 2025, their pay has been annualised based on standard hours. The improved method did not result in any changes to the 2024 figures.

Incidents, complaints and severe human rights impacts
A lack of initiative or commitment to creating a workplace free from harassment and bullying may have a negative impact on employees.
SP Group does not tolerate any form of verbal, physical, psychological or sexual harassment, abuse, bullying or threats in the workplace or in any work-related situations outside the workplace. The promotion of diversity and the prevention of discrimination are integral parts of our ESG Policy.
The establishment of health and safety management systems helps ensure in daily operations that any incidents are addressed promptly before they escalate. In the subsidiaries, various channels have been established for employees to report concerns, and at SP Group level, there is a whistleblower system (see G1-1 'Corporate culture and business conduct policies') through which concerns can be reported.
In 2025, one case was reported by SP Group's own workforce regarding discrimination, including harassment. The case was communicated and handled locally in a subsidiary. SP Group has not received any fines, sanctions or claims for compensation.

ESRS S2 – Workers in the value chain
S2
Workers in the value chain
In accordance with the Omnibus “quick fix” to ESRS 2, paragraph 17, we apply the temporary exemption and provide a summarised disclosure of workers in the value chain.
The increased international scope of SP Group entails an increased risk of becoming involved in activities in countries that do not comply with international human rights conventions or with business partners failing to act responsibly. We therefore keep a sharp watch on current and potential risks at suppliers and business partners in relation to respect for human rights.
Our efforts to prevent and mitigate these risks rely on the relationship and cooperation with our suppliers regarding the use and handling of raw materials.
S2-1
Policies related to value chain workers
To ensure protection of value chain workers, we engage in ongoing dialogue and cooperation with our suppliers and monitor whether they assume responsibility for the efforts in this area. This work is based on the companies’ ISO 9001 quality management certifications, which include supplier management alongside evaluations of suppliers’ efforts in relation to environmental and social conditions.
Key suppliers to SP Group companies are obliged to comply with our Supplier Code of Conduct, which is based on our ESG Policy.
If a supplier fails to meet the requirements of our Supplier Code of Conduct, the business agreement may be terminated with immediate effect. This process has been strengthened by the establishment of the ESG function, which has made it possible to follow up on all Group entities and their business partners.
SP Group’s Supplier Code of Conduct comprises the following areas:
- Human rights, including protection of privacy and non-discrimination
- Employment conditions, including health and safety, working hours and pay and fair working conditions
- Working conditions, including freedom of association and collective agreements, forced and child labour, non-discrimination and equal opportunities
S2-2
Processes for engaging with value chain workers
There are no formalised procedures and processes for engaging with value chain workers. SP Group plans to introduce screening of key suppliers of raw materials and tools. Discussions concerning possible solutions for managing and monitoring ESG risks were opened in 2025. This monitoring will enable us to identify any negative impacts and risks at suppliers and engage in a dialogue on mitigation actions, see the disclosure requirements of ESRS S2-3 and S2-4.

Targets related to value chain workers
SP Group primarily engages with suppliers in the EU, many of whom have already been certified by independent third parties in relation to quality, the environment and health and safety. Therefore, it is our fundamental assumption that working conditions generally meet high standards of health, safety and labour rights. We expect our suppliers to prioritise the well-being of their employees and to work responsibly and in accordance with applicable legislation and good practice.
Accordingly, we do not plan to engage directly with value chain workers or their representatives in order to set specific targets and follow up on results. Instead, we plan to monitor employee conditions indirectly via information available in electronic portals or systems, where we can continuously monitor relevant data. Should a situation require further investigation, we will actively contact the supplier to engage in dialogue and clarify the facts.
Digital monitoring is conducted with a focus on strengthening the work on social conditions for value chain workers and lifting efforts to a higher strategic level within the Group. A KPI will be defined for these efforts. This work is an important step towards achieving our strategic goals for sustainability and social responsibility. The plan was developed in a close partnership between the Executive Board and our ESG manager, and it was subsequently presented to the companies at a joint strategy meeting setting the stage for further implementation across the Group.

01 Governance
For SP Group, running a healthy business requires good corporate governance. For us, this is closely linked to requirements of accountability, ethics and proper conduct. As part of our work on sustainability and corporate social responsibility, we focus on integrating standards for anti-corruption, data protection and tax payment across the Group. We also have a whistleblower programme allowing both internal and external stakeholders to raise concerns about irregularities in our activities.
It is crucial for the trust in SP Group of customers, business partners, employees and other stakeholders that our efforts are embedded in day-to-day operations and reflected in our daily interactions. We have therefore adopted policies that define goals and frameworks for our initiatives and assign roles and responsibilities for implementing the principles.

Corporate culture and business conduct policies
SP Group's Management develops, promotes and evaluates its business conduct through our ESG Policy and reports, where relevant. The ESG Policy sets out guidelines regarding anti-corruption, data protection, tax, payment practices and whistleblower programme, thus addressing material negative impacts and risks in relation to corporate culture, corruption and bribery. Accordingly, the ESG Policy's objective is to ensure a high level of integrity within SP Group and applies to SP Group and all our subsidiaries.
The mechanisms for identifying, reporting and investigating concerns about unlawful conduct or conduct inconsistent with our ESG Policy comprise the control function of the Board of Directors and the Executive Board, see 'GOV-1', and our dialogue-based corporate culture and employee training.
All employees within the Group who have access to a personal company-owned computer are considered to have potential exposure to risks related to corruption and bribery in that, as part of their work functions, they maintain contact with external suppliers and business partners, which requires a high degree of responsibility and awareness of good business conduct.
Whistleblower programme
In 2025, to ensure monitoring of and compliance with good business conduct, we updated our whistleblower programme allowing any person associated with the Group to report in confidence any suspected non-compliance with our policies and guidelines, laws and regulations as well as any other serious concerns. Reports must be made in writing via the SP Group whistleblower portal: https://sp-group.integrityline.com, through which they are received and registered by SP Group's external business partner, HortenDahl Advokatpartnerselskab. Reports falling within the scope of the whistleblower system will be referred to SP Group's in-house whistleblowing unit, who will investigate the matter. The whistleblowing unit is bound by a duty of secrecy and treats all information as confidential. The protection of whistleblowers, in accordance with the law, is detailed in SP Group's Whistleblower Policy, which is available on the Group's website. SP Group's management will decide on actions or consequences, if relevant, once a case has been closed.
Excerpts from our ESG Policy:
Governance
At SP Group, we wish to maintain a high level of integrity and responsibility, both within the Group and across our external relations. We have therefore established internal practices that strengthen a corporate culture focused on good business practices. We strive to commit our suppliers to respect our values by means of our Supplier Code of Conduct.
Anti-corruption
SP Group does not engage in corruption in any form, whether it be extortion, bribery, embezzlement, fraud, facilitation payments, nepotism, cartel formation or conflicts of interest. We do not offer or promise any form of bribe for the purpose of exerting undue influence on public-sector employees, judges or business partners, nor do we receive, accept or participate in any form of bribe. This ensures that we comply with relevant international standards and conventions.
We respect all international trade embargoes without exception. We do not accept anti-competitive conduct, and we publish and validate all relevant financial information in accordance with Danish law.
The obligation to not be a party to corruption or bribery in any form extends to our agents, intermediaries, consultants and others acting on our behalf.
Through training of relevant employees, we ensure the prevention of corruption, and we have established a whistleblower programme allowing any person associated with SP Group to report in confidence any suspected corruption.
Whistleblower programme
In accordance with applicable law, SP Group has established a whistleblower programme allowing any person associated with the Group to report in confidence any suspected non-compliance with SP Group's policies and guidelines, laws and regulations as well as any other serious concerns. This ensures an avenue for complaint in all areas covered by the ESG Policy.

Prevention and detection of corruption and bribery
At SP Group, we have a clear policy for preventing, detecting and handling corruption and bribery.
Our ESG Policy underlines our wish to maintain a high level of integrity and responsibility across our external relations and that we do not participate in corruption in any form, whether it be extortion, bribery, embezzlement, fraud, facilitation payments, nepotism, cartel formation or conflicts of interest. We do not offer or promise any form of bribe for the purpose of exerting undue influence on public- sector employees, judges or business partners, nor do we accept any form of bribe. This ensures that we comply with relevant international standards and conventions.
Any incidents of corruption or bribery are reported through the whistleblower programme and are dealt with by a whistleblower unit. This ensures
that executives and senior managers involved in the matter do not have access to the reports.
We are actively working to prevent, detect and handle all aspects of corruption and bribery. We do this by means of our ESG Policy and our whistleblower programme, which have been communicated to all the companies, which are in charge of all further communications to their employees.
In 2025, we updated our Supplier Code of Conduct, which obligates our suppliers to comply with the Group's anti-corruption requirements in connection with the signing of business agreements. This ensures that all parties acting on behalf of SP Group are subject to the commitments to not participate in any form of corruption or bribery. Our Supplier Code of Conduct is available on the Group's website.
In 2025, SP Group's employee training material on corruption and bribery was made available in a digital format, enabling digital record-keeping. The programme provides the employees with insight into anti-corruption rules and helps them understand when they are at risk of becoming engaged in corruption and what their lines of action are.
In connection with the implementation of the digital training material, the Executive Board set goals and defined the framework for the training programme. All employees with a personal company-owned PC must complete the new digital training once annually and, going forward, new employees must complete the training programme as part of their induction training plan.

The annual report will be presented to the shareholders of SP Group A/S for approval at the annual general meeting on 29 April 2026.
Basis for preparation
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Danish kroner (DKK), which is the presentation currency for the Group's activities and the Parent Company's functional currency. The accounting policies are unchanged from the policies applied last year.
iXBRL reporting
SP Group A/S has published its annual report in European Single Electronic Format (ESEF), xHTML, which can be opened by all standard web browsers. The annual report is tagged using inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language (iXBRL), which is in accordance with the delegated regulation and the ESEF taxonomy. The annual report submitted to the Danish Business Authority is in an XHTML document together with specific technical files, which are all included in the file SPGroup-AS-2024-12-31.da.zip.
Implementation of new or amended standards and interpretations
The Group has implemented the amendments to IAS 21 on lack of exchangeability, effective from 1 January 2025, as adopted by the EU.
The Group has assessed that the amendments do not affect the financial statements, as the Group has no activities in countries or currencies subject to limited exchangeability.
IASB's further amendments issued in November 2025 concerning translation to a hyperinflationary presentation currency are not deemed relevant to the Group, as neither SP Group's functional currency nor its presentation currency are the currencies of a hyperinflationary economy.
New financial reporting regulation
The IASB has issued a number of new standards and interpretations that were not compulsory for SP Group A/S at the preparation of the Annual Report for 2025. None of these are expected to have a material impact on the financial reporting of SP Group A/S.
IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements, introducing new requirements that will enhance the transparency in the reporting of financial performance and provide improved comparability between companies. IFRS 18 will not affect recognition or measurement of financial statement items, but may significantly affect the presentation of items in the financial statements, particularly in the income statement.
Management has yet to assess the effects of the new standard.
IFRS 18 will be effective for financial years starting on 1 January 2027.
IFRS 7 and IFRS 9, Contracts referencing nature-dependent electricity: The amendments introduce application guidance for assessing whether nature-dependent electricity contracts meet the own-use criteria. The amendments also introduce guidance on the use of hedge accounting for such contracts where actual amounts produced differ from the forecast amounts produced. Furthermore, the amendments impose additional disclosure requirements for companies concluding contracts for nature-dependent electricity.
The amendments are effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2026. Early application is permitted when the amendments have been adopted by the EU.
Consolidated financial statements
The consolidated financial statements comprise the Parent Company, SP Group A/S, (the Company) and subsidiaries controlled by SP Group A/S.
The Group controls another entity if the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement in the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.
When assessing whether the Group exercises control, allowance is made for de facto control and potential voting rights that are real and substantive at the reporting date.
Consolidation principles
The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis of the financial statements of SP Group A/S and its subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements are prepared by combining financial statement items of a uniform nature. The financial statements used for the consolidation are prepared in accordance with the Group's accounting policies.
Upon consolidation, intra-group income and expenses, intra-group balances and dividends as well as gains and losses on intra-group transactions are eliminated.
The subsidiaries' financial statement items are recognised in full in the consolidated financial statements.
Non-controlling interests
On initial recognition, non-controlling interests are either measured at fair value or at their proportionate share of the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. Choice of method is made for each individual transaction. Non-controlling interests are subsequently adjusted for their proportionate share of changes in the subsidiary's equity. Comprehensive income is allocated to the non-controlling interests, irrespective of whether the non-controlling interest will thus become negative.
Acquisitions and disposals of non-controlling interests in a subsidiary that do not result in loss of control are accounted for in the consolidated financial statements as equity transactions, and the difference between the consideration and the carrying amount is allocated to the Company's share of equity.
Business combinations
Entities acquired or established during the year are recognised in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition or establishment. The acquisition date is the date at which control of the entity actually assumed. Divested or wound-up entities are recognised in the consolidated income statement up to the date of disposal. The date of disposal is the date at which control of the entity is effectively transferred to a third party.
The acquisition method is applied to acquisitions of new entities over which the Group obtains control, implying that the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of

Notes
1. Accounting policies (continued)
acquirees are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. However, non-currents assets acquired for the purpose of resale are measured at fair value less anticipated selling costs. Restructuring costs are only recognised in the pre-acquisition balance sheet if they constitute a liability for the acquiree. Allowance is made for the tax effect of revaluations made.
The cost of an entity consists in the fair value of the consideration paid for the acquiree. If the final determination of the consideration is conditional upon one or more future events, these are recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Expenses which are attributable to the acquisition of the entity are recognised directly in profit/loss as incurred.
Any positive difference (goodwill) between the consideration paid for the acquiree, the value of non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of previously acquired equity investments on the one hand and the fair value of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired on the other hand is recognised as goodwill and is tested for impairment at least once a year. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is written down to the lower recoverable amount.
For negative differences (negative goodwill), the calculated fair values, the calculated consideration for the acquiree, the value of non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of previously acquired equity investments are revalued. If the difference is still negative, the difference is recognised as income in the income statement.
If uncertainties regarding the identification or measurement of acquired assets, liabilities or contingent liabilities or the determination of the consideration exist at the acquisition date, initial recognition will take place on the basis of provisional values. The provisional values may be adjusted, or additional assets or liabilities may be recognised, up to 12 months after the acquisition if any such new information is provided on
matters existing at the acquisition date that would have affected the calculation of the values at the acquisition date, had the information been known.
Changes in estimates of contingent consideration are generally recognised in the income statement.
Gains or losses on divestment or winding up of subsidiaries and associates
Gains or losses on the divestment or winding up of subsidiaries that results in loss of control or significant influence are calculated as the difference between the fair value of the sales proceeds or the disposal consideration and the fair value of any remaining equity investments on the one hand and the carrying amount of net assets at the date of disposal or winding up, including goodwill, less any non-controlling interests on the other hand. The calculated gain or loss from such divestment or winding up is recognised in profit/loss together with accumulated exchange rate adjustments, which were previously recognised in other comprehensive income.
Foreign currency translation
On initial recognition, transactions denominated in currencies other than the individual entity's functional currency are translated at the exchange rates at the transaction date. Receivables, liabilities and other monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that have not been settled at the balance sheet date are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange differences arising between the exchange rates at the transaction date and at the date of payment and the balance sheet date, respectively, are recognised in the income statement as financial income or financial expenses. Property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, inventories and other non-monetary assets purchased in foreign currencies and measured on the basis of historical cost are translated at the exchange rates at the transaction date. Non-monetary items that are revalued at fair value are translated at the exchange rates at the date of revaluation.
When entities that present their financial statements in a functional currency other than DKK are recognised in the consolidated financial statements, such entities' income statement items are translated at average exchange rates on a monthly basis unless such rates vary significantly from the actual exchange rates at the transaction dates. In the latter case, the actual exchange rates are used. Balance sheet items are translated at closing rates. Goodwill is considered to belong to the acquiree in question and is translated at closing rates.
Foreign exchange differences arising on translation of foreign entities' balance sheet items at the beginning of the year at closing rates and on translation of income statement items from average rates to closing rates are recognised in other comprehensive income. Similarly, foreign exchange differences arising from changes made directly in the foreign entity's equity are also recognised in other comprehensive income.
Derivative financial instruments
On initial recognition, derivative financial instruments are measured at the fair value at the date of settlement.
Subsequently, derivative financial instruments are measured at the fair value at the balance sheet date. Positive and negative fair values of derivative financial instruments are recognised in other receivables or other payables, respectively.
Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments classified as and qualifying for designation as effective hedges of future transactions are recognised in other comprehensive income. The ineffective part is recognised immediately in the income statement. When the hedged transactions are realised, the accumulated changes are recognised as part of the cost of the relevant transactions.
Derivative financial instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are considered trading portfolios and are measured at fair value with current recognition of fair value
adjustments in the income statement under financial income or financial expenses.
Share-based payment
Share-based incentive schemes under which executive officers may only opt to purchase shares in the Company (equity-settled share-based payment programmes) are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date and are recognised in the income statement under staff costs over the vesting period. The counter entry is recognised directly in equity.
On initial recognition of the incentive programme, an estimate is made of the number of shares that are expected to vest. That estimate is subsequently adjusted for changes so that the total recognition is based on the actual number of vested shares.
The fair value of the equity instruments is measured using the Black-Scholes model with the parameters set out in note 8.
Tax
Tax for the year, which consists of current tax for the year and changes in deferred tax, is recognised in the income statement as to the portion attributable to the profit/loss for the year and directly in equity or other comprehensive income as to the portion attributable to entries directly in equity or in other comprehensive income, respectively. Exchange rate adjustments in respect of deferred tax are recognised as part of the deferred tax adjustments for the year.
Current tax payable or receivable is recognised in the balance sheet, stated as calculated tax on taxable income for the year adjusted for tax paid on account.
When calculating the current tax for the year, the tax rates and tax rules effective at the balance sheet date are used.
Annual report 2025
Financial statements Notes to the consolidated financial statements
SP Group 127
Notes
1. Accounting policies (continued)
Deferred tax is recognised in accordance with the balance-sheet liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount and the tax base of assets and liabilities, except for deferred tax on all temporary differences arising on initial recognition of goodwill or on initial recognition of a transaction which is not a business combination and where the temporary difference identified at the time of initial recognition affects neither profit/loss for the year nor taxable income.
Deferred tax is calculated based on the planned use of each asset and the settlement of each liability, respectively.
Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and tax rules that, based on legislation in force or in reality in force at the balance sheet date, are expected to apply in the respective countries when the deferred tax is expected to crystallise as current tax. Changes in deferred tax resulting from changed tax rates or tax rules are recognised in the income statement unless the deferred tax is attributable to transactions previously recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income. In the latter case, such changes are also recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income, respectively.
Deferred tax assets, including the tax base of tax loss carryforwards, are recognised in the balance sheet at the expected value of their realisation, either as a set-off against deferred tax liabilities or as net tax assets for set-off against future positive taxable income. At the balance sheet date, it is assessed whether sufficient taxable income for the deferred tax asset to be utilised is likely to be generated in the future.
Income statement
Revenue
The Group's revenue comprises sale of moulded plastic and composite components and coatings on plastic and metal components. To a minor extent, the Group also supplies customised moulds and performs validation tasks.
The Group's sales agreements are divided into individually identifiable performance obligations, which are recognised and measured separately at fair value. If a sales agreement comprises several performance obligations, the total selling price of the sales agreement is allocated proportionately to the individual performance obligations under the agreement.
Revenue is recognised when control of the individual identifiable performance obligation is transferred to the customer.
The recognised revenue is measured at the transaction price of the agreed consideration excluding VAT and taxes charged on behalf of third parties. All discounts granted are recognised in revenue.
The part of the total remuneration that is variable, for example in the form of discounts, bonus payments, penalty payments, etc., is only recognised in revenue when it is reasonably certain that no subsequent reimbursement thereof will occur, for example due to lack of achievement of goals.
Sale of goods
Sale of goods for resale and finished goods comprises sale of moulded plastic and composite components as well as coatings on plastic and metal components and is recognised in revenue when control of the individual identifiable performance obligation in the sales agreement is transferred to the customer, which is at the time of delivery, according to the sales conditions. Even though a sales agreement regarding sale of finished goods and goods for resale often contains several performance obligations, they are treated as one performance obligation as delivery typically takes place at the same time.
Payment terms in the Group's sales agreements
The payment terms in the Group's sales agreements with customers are partly dependent on the underlying performance obligation and partly dependent on the underlying customer relationship.
For sale of goods where control is transferred at a specific point in time, the payment terms will typically be invoice month + 1 - 3 months.
The Group does not enter into sales agreements with a credit period of more than 12 months. Accordingly, the Group does not adjust the agreed contract price with a finance charge. For large projects, security is usually requested in the form of prepayments. For these projects, customers will typically be entitled to withhold part of the total payment until satisfactory functionality in the products sold has been confirmed and accepted by the customer.
Cost of sales
Cost of sales comprises expenses incurred in generating the revenue for the year. Cost of sales comprises the trading entities' cost of sales and the manufacturing entities' costs of raw materials, consumables and maintenance of the property, plant and equipment and intangible assets used in the manufacturing process.
Power purchase agreements (PPA) have concluded for the Group's Danish companies on the power supply for a number of years. Based on the contractual basis and the relation between power supply and the related price agreement, the PPA agreement is for accounting purposes treated as a supply contract.
Other operating income
Other operating income comprises income of a secondary nature to the Group's principal activities, including in particular external leases and compensations.
External expenses
External expenses comprise expenses for sale, advertising, administration, premises, bad debts, etc.
External expenses also include expenses relating to development projects that do not qualify for recognition in the balance sheet.
Staff costs
Staff costs comprise wages and salaries, social security costs, pension contributions, etc. relating to the Company's staff.
Net financials
Financial income and expenses comprise interest income and interest expenses, the interest element of finance lease payments, realised and unrealised foreign exchange gains and losses on receivables, cash and cash equivalents and liabilities, amortisation premium or allowance on mortgage debt, etc., as well as surcharges and refunds under the on-account tax scheme.
Annual report 2025
Financial statements Notes to the consolidated financial statements
SP Group 128
Notes
1. Accounting policies (continued)
Interest income and expenses are accrued based on the principal amount and the effective interest rate. The effective interest rate is the discount rate used to discount expected future payments related to the financial asset or the financial liability in order for the present value of such asset or liability to match its carrying amount.
Balance sheet
Goodwill
On initial recognition, goodwill is recognised and measured as the difference between the acquisition price of the acquiree, the value of non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the fair value of previously acquired equity investments on the one hand and the fair value of the acquired assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities on the other hand; see the description in the Consolidated financial statements section.
On recognition of goodwill, the goodwill amount is allocated to those of the Group's activities that generate separate cash flows (cash-generating units). The determination of cash-generating units follows the Group's managerial structure, internal financial management and reporting.
Goodwill is not amortised, but is tested for impairment at least annually, see below.
Other intangible assets
Development projects regarding clearly defined and identifiable products and processes are recognised as intangible assets if it is probable that the product or the process will generate future economic benefits for the Group and if the development costs of each asset can be reliably measured. Other development costs are expensed in the income statement as incurred.
On initial recognition, development projects are measured at cost. The cost of development projects comprises expenses, including salaries and amortisation directly attributable to the development projects and which are required to complete the project, calculated from the date at which the development project first qualifies for recognition as an asset.
Completed development projects are amortised over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The period of amortisation is 5-10 years, depending on the nature of the development projects.
Development projects are written down to any lower recoverable amount, see below. Development projects in progress are tested for impairment at least annually.
Acquired intellectual property rights in the form of software, technology and customer files are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation.
The assets are amortised over their expected useful lives as set out below
| Trademarks | 10 years |
|---|---|
| Software | 3-5 years |
| Customer relationships | 10-20 years |
| Accuired technology | 10 years |
Acquired intellectual property rights are written down to any lower recoverable amount, see below.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Land is not depreciated. Cost comprises the acquisition price, expenses directly attributable to the acquisition and expenses to prepare the asset until such time as it is ready to be put into operation. For self-constructed assets, cost comprises expenses directly attributable to the construction of the asset, including materials, components, sub-suppliers and labour costs. For leased assets, cost is the lower of the fair value of the asset and the present value of future lease payments. Interest expenses on loans raised to finance the manufacturing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in cost if they relate to the manufacturing period. Other borrowing costs are recognised in the income statement.
The basis of depreciation is cost less the residual value. The residual value is the amount that would expectedly be obtained if the asset was sold today, net of selling costs, if the asset already had the age and condition that it is expected to have at the end of its useful life. Individual components of property, plant and equipment that have different useful lives are accounted for as separate items, which are depreciated separately.
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives:
| Buildings | 40 years |
|---|---|
| Building installations | 10 years |
| Plant and machinery | 5-25 years |
| Fixtures and fittings, tools and equipment | 5-10 years |
| IT equipment | 3-5 years |
Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lease term, however not exceeding 10 years.
Solar panel systems are included in plant and machinery and are depreciated over a period of up to 25 years.
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual amounts are reassessed annually.
Property, plant and equipment is written down to the lower of the recoverable amount and the carrying amount, see below.
Leases
A lease asset and a lease liability are recognised in the balance sheet when, under a lease entered into for a specific identifiable asset, the leased asset is made available to the Group during the lease term and when the Group obtains substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset.
On initial recognition, lease liabilities are measured at the present value of future lease payments discounted by an incremental borrowing rate. The following lease payments are recognised as part of the lease liability:
- fixed payments,
- variable payments that change concurrently with changes to an index or an interest rate based on the applicable index or interest rate,
- payments due subject to a residual value guarantee,
- exercise price of call options that Management is highly likely to exercise,
- payments subject to an extension option that the Group is highly likely to exercise,
- penalty related to a termination option unless it is highly likely that the Group will not exercise the option.
The lease liability is measured at amortised cost according to the effective interest method. The lease liability is recalculated when the underlying contractual cash flows change due to changes in an index or interest rate, if the Group's estimate

Notes
1. Accounting policies (continued)
of a residual value guarantee changes or if the Group changes its assessment of whether call options, extension options or termination options can reasonably be expected to be exercised.
On initial recognition, the leased asset is measured at cost, which corresponds to the value of the lease liabilities adjusted for prepaid lease payments plus directly related costs and estimated costs for demolition, repairs or the like less discounts or other types of incentive payments from the lessor.
Subsequently, the asset is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and the useful life of the leased asset. Depreciation charges are recognised on a straight-line basis in the income statement.
The leased asset is adjusted for changes to the lease liability due to changes to the terms of the lease or changes to the cash flows of the lease concurrently with changes to an in-dex or interest rate.
Leased assets are depreciated over the expected lease term/useful life, which is:
Operating equipment 1 - 15 years
Primary production properties 5 - 20 years
Other properties 1 - 5 years
The Group presents the leased asset and the lease liability separately in the balance sheet.
Leases with a term of less than 12 months or with a value of less than DKK 35,000 are considered immaterial pursuant to the relief provisions under IFRS 16. Payments under such leases are recognised on a straight-line basis in the income statement over the term of the lease.
Equity investments in associates
In the consolidated financial statements, equity investments in associates are measured according to the equity method, meaning that equity investments in the balance sheet are measured at the proportionate share of the companies' equity value calculated in accordance with the Group's accounting policies minus or plus the proportionate share of unrealised intra-group gains and losses and plus values added on acquisition, including goodwill.
Equity investments in associates are impairment tested when there is an indication of impairment.
The proportionate share of profits/losses of associates is recognised in the consolidated income statement after elimination of the proportionate share of intra-group gains/losses.
Other non-current assets
The carrying amount of other non-current assets is tested annually for indications of impairment. When there is an indication that assets may be impaired, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less expected costs to sell and its value in use.
Impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
The carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with definite useful lives are tested at the balance sheet date for indications of impairment. If there are indications of impairment, the recoverable amount of the asset is calculated to determine if an impairment loss is to be recognised – and, if so, the amount.
The recoverable amount of development projects in progress and goodwill is estimated annually, irrespective of whether there is an indication of impairment.
If an asset does not generate cash flows independently of other assets, the recoverable amount of the smallest cash-generating unit in which the assets is included is estimated.
The recoverable amount is calculated at the higher of the fair value of the asset or the cash-generating unit less selling costs and the value in use. In determining the value in use, estimated future cash flows are discounted at present value using a discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset and the cash-generating unit, respectively, and for which no adjustment has been made in the estimated future cash flows.
If the recoverable amount of the asset or the cash-generating unit is lower than the carrying amount, the carrying amount is written down to the recoverable amount. Impairment losses for a cash-generating unit are allocated so that any goodwill amount is written down first, and any remaining impairment losses are subsequently allocated to the other assets of the unit, although the carrying amount of an individual asset is not reduced to an amount lower than its fair value less estimated costs to sell.
Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement. In case of any subsequent reversals of impairment losses resulting from changes in the assumptions of the calculated recoverable amount, the carrying amount of the asset and the cash-generating unit, respectively, is increased to the adjusted recoverable amount, however, not exceeding the carrying amount that the asset or the cash generating unit would have had if the impairment write-down had not been made. Impairment losses relating to goodwill are not reversed.
Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost using the FIFO method and net realisable value.
Goods for resale, raw materials and consumables are measured at cost, comprising purchase price plus delivery costs. The cost of manufactured goods and work in progress comprises costs of raw materials, consumables and direct labour costs as well as allocated fixed and variable indirect production costs.
Variable indirect production costs comprise indirect materials and labour costs and are allocated based on pre-calculations of the goods actually produced. Fixed indirect production costs comprise costs of maintenance of and depreciation of machinery, factory buildings and equipment applied in the manufacturing process as well as general costs relating to factory administration and management. Fixed production costs are allocated on the basis of the normal capacity of the production plant.
The net realisable value of inventories is calculated as the expected selling price less costs of completion and costs incurred to make the sale.
Receivables
Receivables are measured at amortised cost, and financial instruments with positive values are measured at fair value. Provision for bad debts is made in accordance with the simplified expected credit loss model, under which the total loss is recognised immediately in the income statement at the same time as the receivable is recognised in the balance sheet based on the amount of the lifetime expected credit

loss of the receivable. Other receivables mainly comprise financial instruments with positive values.
Other assets
Other assets comprise expenses incurred relating to subsequent financial years. Other assets are measured at cost.
Dividend
Dividend is recognised as a liability at the date when it is adopted at the general meeting.
Reserve for treasury shares
Reserve for treasury shares comprises the purchase price of the Company's treasury shares. Dividend from treasury shares and gains and losses on the sale of treasury shares are taken directly to retained earnings under equity.
Other reserves
The translation reserve comprises all exchange rate adjustments arising on translation of financial statements of entities with a functional currency other than DKK.
The reserve for share-based payment comprises the accumulated value of vested share option programmes (equity-settled share option programmes) measured at the fair value of the equity instruments at the grant date and recognised over the vesting period. The reserve is dissolved as the employees exercise the vested right to acquire shares, the employees resign before fully vested or as the options expire without having been exercised.
The hedging reserve comprises the accumulated net change in the fair value of hedging transactions that qualify for designation as hedges of future cash flows where the hedged transaction has not yet been realised.
Pension obligations
Under defined contribution plans, the Group pays fixed regular contributions to independent pension providers. The contributions are recognised in the income statement during the period in which the employees render the related service. Due amounts are recognised as a liability in the balance sheet.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities comprise bank debt, mortgage debt and trade payables, etc.
On initial recognition, financial liabilities are measured at fair value less any transaction costs. Subsequently, the liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, to the effect that the difference between the proceeds and the nominal amount is recognised in the income statement as a financial expense over the term of the loan.
Non-financial liabilities are measured at net realisable value.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when, as a result of past events, the Group has a legal or a constructive obligation and it is probable that there will be an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits to settle the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is Management's best estimate of the expenses required to settle the obligation.
Other payables
Other payables comprise payables to public authorities, holiday pay obligations, etc., and are measured at amortised cost, which usually corresponds to the nominal value.
Cash flow statement
The cash flow statement shows cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as well as cash and cash equivalents at the beginning and the end of the financial year.
Cash flows from acquisition and divestment of entities are shown separately under cash flows from investing activities. Cash flows from acquired entities are recognised in the cash flow statement from the date of acquisition. Cash flows from divested entities are recognised until the date of divestment.
Cash flows from operating activities are presented using the indirect method and are calculated as the operating profit/ loss adjusted for non-cash operating items, changes in working capital as well as financial income, financial expenses and corporation tax.
Cash flows from investing activities comprise payments in connection with acquisition and divestment of entities and financial assets as well as acquisition, development, improvement and sale of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment.
Cash flows from financing activities comprise changes in the Parent Company's share capital and any related expenses as well as the raising and settlement of loans, servicing of interest-bearing debt, purchase of treasury shares, distribution of dividend and changes in operating credits.
Cash flows in currencies other than the functional currency are recognised in the cash flow statement using average exchange rates for the months unless they differ significantly from the actual exchange rates at the transaction dates. If this is the case, the actual exchange rates of each day are applied.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand.

2. Significant accounting estimates, assumptions and judgements
Several financial statement items cannot be reliably measured, only estimated. Such estimates comprise assessments based on the latest information available at the financial reporting date. It may be necessary to change previous estimates due to changes in the underlying conditions on which the estimate was based or due to additional information, further experience or subsequent events.
Significant accounting estimates
In applying the accounting policies described in note 1, Management has made accounting estimates of, for example, the valuation of development costs, the valuation of inventories, purchase price allocations in connection with acquisitions, expectations of earn-out payments after acquisitions as well as the valuation of equity investments in subsidiaries in the Parent Company financial statements.
Assumptions and uncertainties relating to significant estimates are described below. Management is not otherwise believed to have made accounting estimates that materially affect the annual report, nor are the accounting estimates made considered to be subject to significant uncertainty.
Changes to the practice on accounting estimates
No significant changes have been made to the practice on accounting estimates in the financial year.
Significant assumptions and uncertainties
Recognition and measurement of assets and liabilities often depend on future events that are subject to a degree of uncertainty. In this connection, it is necessary to make assumptions of a course of events, for example, reflecting Management's assessment of the most likely course of events. In determining the fair values of assets and liabilities, the Group has taken into account any potential material effects of macro-economic and climate-related issues. At present, no special risks have been identified in relation to extreme weather events and climate change, and the Group is not currently considered to be exposed to transition risk in relation to changed climate regulation that materially affects the Group's operations or recognition and measurement in the annual report. The global unrest has not diminished here at the beginning of 2026 with new political agendas being set from several sides. Geopolitical tensions and trade wars may have a strong adverse impact on the global economy and, by extension, on SP Group's performance.
In the Annual Report for 2025 as well as in the annual reports for previous years, the following assumptions and uncertainties should be noted, as they have significantly affected the assets and liabilities recognised in the annual report and may require corrections in subsequent financial years if the courses of events assumed are not realised as expected.
Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)
Power purchase agreements have been entered into for the Group's Danish companies to the effect that the companies purchase power produced by wind turbines and solar panels under a single supplier agreement with a related price agreement. The agreements were entered into for the period from 2023 to 2027 to cover a significant proportion of the expected power consumption of the Danish companies. In 2025, SP Group's Danish factories consumed a total of 25,699 MWh. Of this, 18,678 MWh were purchased under the PPA and the rest under green certificates. The combination of power from wind turbines and solar panels matches SP Group's consumption, and the amount purchased directly from the plants is high.
The PPA is classified as a contract for pecuniary interest (supply contract) and is treated accordingly for accounting purposes.
Assessment of goodwill impairment
The risk associated with the valuation of goodwill relates to the assessment of the value of goodwill recognised on acquisition of companies, including the discretionary treatment of the value in connection with annual impairment tests. Management is of the opinion that goodwill should be tested for the SP Group as a whole, as the cost base cannot be attributed to a lower level.
Business combinations
In connection with business combinations, Group Management makes a number of significant estimates and judgements related to the identification and measurement of acquired assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at fair value at the acquisition date.
The most significant estimates relate to purchase price allocation, including determining the fair value of intangible assets such as customer relationships, technologies, trademarks and development projects in progress. Fair values are determined on using recognised valuation methods, which requires estimates to be made of future cash flows, growth rates, discount rates and the expected useful lives of assets.
Management also makes judgements in relation to the determination of goodwill, including to which cash-generating units goodwill is to be allocated. Goodwill reflects expected future economic benefits that are not directly attributable to individual identifiable assets.
Valuation of inventories
Obsolescence of inventories is assessed by the subsidiaries on the basis of their individual calculations. This entails a higher degree of risk with respect to the recognition of correct cost, accurate calculation of IPO and failure to write down inventories to net realisable value.

Recoverable amount is calculated on the basis of fair value less expected costs to sell. Fair value is based on the market value of SP Group's shares (level 1).
SP Group's market value is significantly higher than the Group's recognised equity. Consequently, goodwill is not impaired (2024: no impairment).
Development projects in progress and completed
Development projects in progress and completed include the development and testing of new products for the Group's customers. The projects include new own-brand packaging concepts, such as Divibax and Clear Vials, as well as Guide-wires. SP Medical and SP Meditec have upgraded their quality system and product certificates to comply with the new Medical Device Regulation (MDR) thus ensuring continued patient safety and meeting the growing demand from customers for regulatory documentation.
In 2025, Management assessed that there was no indication of impairment of the carrying amount of development projects in progress and completed. The recoverable amount in the form of the value in use was deemed to exceed the carrying amount.
The carrying amount totalled DKK 25.7 million at 31 December 2025 and is expected to produce considerable competitive advantages and an increase in the Group's level of activity and results of operations in the coming years.
Other intangible assets
Apart from goodwill, all intangible assets are considered to have definite useful lives over which the assets are amortised; see the description of accounting policies.

Capital management
The Group continually assesses the need to adjust its capital structure to weigh the higher yield requirement applicable to equity against the increased uncertainty associated with loan capital. At year end 2025, equity accounted for 45.3% of total assets (2024: 53.7%). The Group's targets are an equity ratio of at least 40% and financial gearing (NIBD/EBITDA) of 1-3.5 and up to 4.0 in the first two quarters following an acquisition. The capital structure is managed for the Group as a whole.
Capital is allocated in the following order of priority: Reduction of interest-bearing debt if the financial gearing exceeds the target; investment in profitable growth, including organic growth; replacement of end-of-life equipment and acquisitions, annual dividend distribution; share buy-backs; and extraordinary dividend in case of an exceptional profit or capital release.
It is SP Group A/S' ambition that the shareholders receive a return on their investment in the form of share price increases and dividends. The Group aims to distribute dividends annually, and the dividend amount is determined on the basis of the Company's financial performance, future investment needs and market conditions. The annual dividend is generally 15 - 25% of the profit for the year after tax, taking into consideration the Company's capital structure and cash needs. For 2025, a dividend of DKK 4.00 per share has been proposed, corresponding to 18.7% of the profit for the year.

| Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost | 1,793,336 | 1,146,517 |
The fair value of the financial instruments corresponds to the carrying amount, except that the fair value of financial liabilities is DKK 6.3 million higher (2024: DKK 5.7 million higher). The fair value of financial liabilities is determined based on discount models, i.e. bank debt, financial institutions, lease liabilities and derivative financial instruments at level 2.
The Group's currency risks and interest rate risks are shown below. The individual risks, including the Group's financial risk management policy and sensitivity provisions, are further described in the Management's review.
Currency risk
The Group is exposed to exchange rate fluctuations.
In general, income and expenses are balanced. Most sales are settled in DKK or EUR and the most significant parts of fixed group costs are settled in DKK, PLN or EUR. Purchases are primarily made in DKK and EUR.
20% of the Group's financing has been raised in EUR and 80% has been raised in DKK. In addition, the Group has exposures in USD and PLN, where a 5% drop in USD against DKK would reduce profit before tax by approximately DKK -9.1 million, and a 5% drop in PLN against DKK would increase profit before tax by approximately DKK 6.9 million.
A 5% drop in PLN against DKK would reduce equity by approximately DKK DKK 15.3 million, and a 5% drop in USD would reduce equity by approximately DKK 7.1 million.
In order to hedge the currency risk in accordance with the Group's currency policy, which has been approved by the Board of Directors, the Group has entered into derivative financial instruments to hedge part of the currency risk for a period of up to four years.
The fair value of hedging instruments has been determined by the Company's banks on the basis of expected future payments and forward rates of the currencies in question. Management reviews the valuation periodically.
At year end 2025, the Group had hedged approximately 44% of the expected net cash flows for the coming 48 months.
At 31 December 2025, an instrument for the sale of EUR against PLN in the amount of DKK 754 million (2024: DKK 808 million) had been entered into. DKK 380 million of the hedge falls due within 1 year (2024: DKK 359 million) and DKK 374 million within 1-4 years (2024: DKK 449 million).
Due to the favourable development in PLN against EUR, a part of the above-mentioned forward exchange contracts were terminated in October 2023 by way of an agreement to sell PLN against EUR for a total amount of DKK 224 million (2024: DKK 649 million). DKK 224 million of the hedge falls due within 1 year (2024: DKK 359 million) and DKK 0 million within 1-4 years (2024: DKK 290 million).
The average exchange rate of open hedge transactions is 162 (DKK/PLN).
At 31 December 2025, no hedges in USD had been concluded (2024: DKK 0 million).
Due to the Group's use of derivative financial instruments to hedge the Group's exposure in relation to expected sales transactions, recognition of the effective part of changes in the fair values of hedging instruments in the cash flow hedge reserve positively affected the Group's equity during the year by an aggregate net amount of DKK 10.8 million (2024: DKK 7.2 million).

Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk primarily relates to net interest-bearing debt, i.e. lease liabilities, mortgage debt and bank debt, and cash and cash equivalents. At year end, net interest-bearing debt amounted to DKK 1,459.9 million, of which DKK 339.3 million carried a fixed interest rate. In 2024, the Group entered into an interest rate swap, which amounted to DKK 164.5 million at 31 December 2025, carrying a fixed rate of interest of 4.3%, following which 23% of the debt carried a fixed interest rate. A 1 percentage point increase or decrease in the general level of interest rates would result in an increase or decrease in the Group's interest expenses before tax of approximately DKK 11.2 million and an increase or decrease in the Group's equity of DKK 8.7 million.
SP Group focuses on increasing cash flows from operating activities in order that interest-bearing debt is reduced and the Group is able to finance investments via its operations. The Group also aims to reduce debt by selling non-value-creating assets and activities.
The interest rate risk related to financial assets and liabilities can be described as set out below, with disclosure of the earlier date of interest rate adjustment or maturity and effective interest rates:

Credit risk
The Group's cash primarily consists of deposits in banks with high credit ratings. Consequently, cash is not considered to be subject to particular credit risk.
The Group's primary credit risk is related to trade receivables. SP Group systematically and continually monitors the credit rating of customers and business partners. Credit risk is partially hedged through credit insurance and factoring. No individual customers or business partners pose an unusual credit risk to the Group. The overall credit risk is reduced by the Group's customers and business partners usually being well-reputed companies operating in many different business sectors and countries. The maximum credit risk associated with financial assets is reflected in the carrying amounts recognised in the balance sheet.
Historically, the Group has not recorded any significant bad debts. In the past three years, the loss ratio has been approximately 0.01% of consolidated revenue. Based on the low loss ratio, the loss has been estimated at 0.0% according to the simplified expected credit loss model.
The loss ratio is expected to remain 0% going forward, despite the current market conditions, as a result of the use of the above-mentioned management tools of factoring and credit insurance as well as the Group's composition of customers.

Liquidity risk
It is the Group's objective to have sufficient cash resources to be able to continually make appropriate arrangements in case of unforeseen changes in cash outflows. It is Management's opinion that the Company still has adequate capital resources for its operations and sufficient liquidity to meet its present and future liabilities. The Group's long-term co-operation with its financial business partners is fruitful and constructive. This is expected to continue. The Group neither neglected nor was in breach of loan agreements in the financial year or the comparative year. The Group calculated its cash resources at DKK 512 million at year end 2025.
In addition to usual loan covenants, the following financial covenants have been agreed with the financial lenders:
- Net interest-bearing debt (NIBD) may not exceed 3.5 times EBITDA for the last 12 months, however up to 4.0 times EBITDA in the first two quarters following a debt-financed acquisition
- the equity interest must always be at least 40%
At 31 December 2025, a total amount of DKK 836 million of the Group's loans were subject to the above covenants (2024: DKK 253 million).
The terms to maturity of financial liabilities are specified below. The amounts specified represent the amounts falling due, including interest calculated based on current interest rates.

34. Sale of financial assets
As in previous years, the Group sold selected trade receivables without recourse as part of its credit and risk management. Selected trade receivables cover all receivables from selected customers. The Group's continued involvement is limited to administration of the receivables sold and a limited financial expense regarding the risk of late payment. The sale did not affect profit or loss. No assets or liabilities remain recognised in the balance sheet regarding the receivables sold. The nominal value of the receivables sold amounts to DKK 180 million (2024: DKK 145 million). The maturity date is within 4 months.

36. Acquisition of subsidiaries (continued)
Idé-Pro BE Holding ApS is one of the strongest players in Europe in the area of functional prototypes, injection moulding, expanded PP/PS and high-pressure die casting of light metal components. Idé-Pro has a strong focus on digital production, and since its establishment, the company has developed a unique digital platform that ensures efficient production and sales processes. Production takes place at the company's own factories in Denmark (Skive and Glyngøre) and in India (Bangalore).
The acquisition adds new products and services to SP Group's product range, which are expected to increase sales to the Group's existing customer segments. Also, the acquisition gives SP Group access to a number of attractive new customers and markets that will contribute to SP Group's growth.
Acquisition costs amounted to DKK 4.7 million and were recognised in 2025. Otherwise, the acquisition of Idé-Pro did not affect profit/loss in 20025.
Had the acquisition been completed at 1 January 2025, the contribution to the Group would have been DKK 371 million in revenue, DKK 76 million in EBITDA and DKK 47 million in EBT.
37. Events after the balance sheet date
No significant events have occurred between the balance sheet date and date of the publication of this annual report that have not already been incorporated or disclosed in this annual report and that change the assessment of the Group's financial position.

Financial statements Notes to the parent company financial statements
SP Group 163
Notes
1. Accounting policies
Basis for preparation
The annual report of the Parent Company of SP Group A/S for 2025 has been prepared in accordance with the provisions applying to reporting class D enterprises under the Danish Financial Statements Act.
The accounting policies have been changed compared with the policies applied last year. The Parent Company of SP Group A/S has changed from reporting under IFRS to the Danish Financial Statements Act. The change was driven by a wish to simplify the Parent Company's financial statements. As the change solely concerned presentation and disclosure requirements, it did not give rise to any changes to amounts recognised in the financial statements.
The financial statements are presented in Danish kroner (DKK), which is the Parent Company's functional currency.
Recognition and measurement
With respect to recognition and measurement, the Parent Company's accounting policies are generally consistent with those of the consolidated financial statements. Where the Parent Company's accounting policies differ from those applied in the consolidated financial statements, this is described below. For a description of the Group's accounting policies, see notes 5 and 17 to the consolidated financial statements.
Income statement
Revenue
Revenue comprises income from the sale of services.
Income from investments in subsidiaries and associates
Dividends from subsidiaries and associates are recognised as income in the income statement when approved at the annual general meetings of the entities. However, any dividends relating to earnings in the entities prior to their acquisition by the Parent Company are set off against the cost of the entity.
Tax
Deferred tax is recognised on all temporary differences related to equity investments in subsidiaries, unless the Company is able to control when the deferred tax is realised and it is probable that the deferred tax will not crystallise as current tax in the foreseeable future.
The Parent Company is jointly taxed with all of its Danish subsidiaries. The current Danish corporation tax charge is allocated between the jointly taxed entities in proportion to their taxable income.
Balance sheet
Equity investments in subsidiaries and associates
Equity investments in subsidiaries and associations are measured at cost in the Parent Company financial statements.
If cost exceeds the recoverable amount of the investments, the equity investments are written down to this lower value, see the section on impairment. Distribution of dividend in excess of the entity's aggregate earnings since the Parent Company acquired the equity investments is regarded as an indication of impairment, see the section on impairment below.
In connection with sale of equity investments in subsidiaries and associates, profits or losses are calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the equity investments sold and the fair value of the sales proceeds.
Receivables
Receivables are measured in the balance sheet at the lower of amortised cost and net realisable value, which usually corresponds to the nominal value less provisions for bad debts. Bad debt provisions are calculated on the basis of an assessment of the individual receivables and, in the case of trade receivables, with a general provision based on the company's past experience.
Dividend
Dividend is recognised as a liability at the date when it is adopted at the general meeting.

Management's Statement
The Board of Directors and Executive Board have today considered and adopted the Annual Report of SP Group A/S for the financial year 1 January – 31 December 2025.
The Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU and further requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act. Management's Review has been prepared in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act.
In our opinion, the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statements give a true and fair view of the financial position at 31 December 2025 of the Group and the Parent Company and of the results of the Group and Parent Company operations and cash flows for 2025.
In our opinion, Management's Review includes a fair review of the development in the operations and financial circumstances of the Group and the Parent Company, of the results for the year and of the financial position of the Group and the Parent Company as well as a description of the most significant risks and elements of uncertainty, which the Group and the Parent Company are facing.
Additionally, the sustainability statement, which is part of Management's Review, has been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with paragraph 99 a of the Danish Financial Statements Act. This includes compliance with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) including that the process undertaken by Management to identify the reported information (the "Process") is in accordance with the description set out in the sections "Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities", "Result of the identification- and assessment phase", and "Double materiality matrix". Furthermore, disclosures within subsection titled "Taxonomy reporting" of the sustainability statement are, in all material respects, in accordance with Article 8 of EU Regulation 2020/852 (the "Taxonomy Regulation").
The sustainability statement includes forward-looking statements based on disclosed assumptions about events that may occur in the future and possible future actions by the Group. Actual outcomes are likely to be different since anticipated events frequently do not occur as expected.
In our opinion, the annual report of SP Group A/S for the financial year 1 January to 31 December 2025 with the file name SPGroup-2025-12-31-da.zip is prepared, in all material respects, in compliance with the ESEF Regulation.
We recommend that the Annual Report be adopted at the Annual General Meeting.

Report on the audit of the Financial Statements
Our opinion
In our opinion, the Consolidated Financial Statements give a true and fair view of the Group's financial position at 31 December 2025 and of the results of the Group's operations and cash flows for the financial year 1 January to 31 December 2025 in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU and further requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act.
Moreover, in our opinion, the Parent Company Financial Statements give a true and fair view of the Parent Company's financial position at 31 December 2025 and of the results of the Parent Company's operations for the financial year 1 January to 31 December 2025 in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act.
Our opinion is consistent with our Auditor's Long-form Report to the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors.
What we have audited
The Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statements of SP Group A/S for the financial year 1 January to 31 December 2025 comprise income statement, balance sheet, statement of changes in equity and notes, including material accounting policy information for the Group as well as for the Parent Company and statement of comprehensive income and cash flow statement for the Group. Collectively referred to as the "Financial Statements".
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark. Our responsibilities under those standards and requirements are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Statements section of our report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Independence
We are independent of the Group in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) as applicable to audits of financial statements of public interest entities, and the additional ethical requirements applicable in Denmark. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code.
To the best of our knowledge and belief, prohibited non-audit services referred to in Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014 were not provided.
Appointment
We were first appointed auditors of SP Group A/S on 25 April 2024 for the financial year 2024. We have been reappointed annually by shareholder resolution for a total period of uninterrupted engagement of 2 years including the financial year 2025.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the Financial Statements for 2025. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Financial Statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Annual report 2025
Financial statements
Statement by Management and auditor's report
SP Group

Key audit matter
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized when control over the individual identifiable performance obligation is transferred to the customer.
The recognized revenue is measured at the fair value of the agreed consideration, excluding VAT and taxes collected on behalf of third parties. All types of discounts given are included in the revenue.
We focused on revenue recognition due to the significance of the amount and because it comprises a considerable number of individual transactions.
Reference is made to note 3 in the financial statements.
Acquisition of the Idé-Pro Group
At 17 December 2025, the Group completed the acquisition of the Idé-Pro Group for a cash consideration of DKK 672 million.
As part of the acquisition, Management is required to prepare a purchase price allocation, whereby the identified assets and liabilities are separately recognised and valued at its fair value in the opening balance sheet.
In order to determine the fair values of the separately identified assets and liabilities in the business combination, Management is required to perform significant judgements related to the identification of the relevant assets and liabilities as well as estimating the related fair values, which includes an assessment over the future free cash flows and estimation of discount rates.
We focused on the purchase price allocation, as there is a high level of subjectivity involved in determining significant assumptions for the accounting estimates of the fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities.
The key assumptions and accounting treatment are described in note 36.
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
We considered the appropriateness of the Group's accounting policies for revenue recognition and assessed compliance with applicable accounting standards.
We performed risk assessment procedures to obtain an understanding of IT-systems and applications, business processes, and relevant controls related to revenue recognition.
In respect of controls, we assessed whether these were designed and implemented effectively to address the risk of material misstatement.
We applied data analysis to selected revenue streams to identify and test transactions outside the normal transaction flow. We performed detailed testing of invoicing to assess the accounting treatment applied.
We tested the timing to ensure that revenues are recognized in the correct financial year.
We also assessed the adequacy of the disclosures provided by management in the financial statements.
Our audit procedures included performing risk assessment procedures to obtain an understanding of the Idé-Pro Group and the methodology used by Management in preparing the opening balance at 17 December 2025 and the purchase price allocation reflecting the fair values of the identified assets and liabilities.
We evaluated the significant judgements used to identify assets and liabilities in the business combination and to determine the fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities.
We assessed the reasonableness of the significant assumptions applied in valuing the acquired technology and customer relationships, including the underlying expected life, revenue growth, profitability, discount rates as well as tested the mathematical accuracy of the applied models prepared by Management.
We made use of our internal valuation and accounting specialists to independently challenge Management in the identification and valuation of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities in the purchase price allocation.
Furthermore, we assessed the appropriateness of the disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Statement on Management's Review
Management is responsible for Management's Review.
Our opinion on the Financial Statements does not cover Management's Review, and we do not as part of the audit express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read Management's Review and, in doing so, consider whether Management's Review is materially inconsistent with the Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
Moreover, we considered whether Management's Review includes the disclosures required by the Danish Financial Statements Act. This does not include the requirements in paragraph 99 a related to the sustainability statement covered by the separate auditor's limited assurance report hereon.
Based on the work we have performed, in our view, Management's Review is in accordance with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statements and has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Danish Financial Statements Act, except for the requirements in paragraph 99 a related to the sustainability statement, cf. above. We did not identify any material misstatement in Management's Review.
Management's responsibilities for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU and further requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act and for the preparation of parent company financial statements that give a true
Annual report 2025
Financial statements
Statement by Management and auditor's report
SP Group
175
and fair view in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act, and for such internal control as Management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Financial Statements, Management is responsible for assessing the Group's and the Parent Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless Management either intends to liquidate the Group or the Parent Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these Financial Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's and the Parent Company's internal control.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by Management.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of Management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's and the Parent Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the Financial Statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group or the Parent Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that gives a true and fair view.
- Plan and perform the group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business units within the group as a basis for forming an opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for purposes of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence and, where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the Financial Statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter.

Report on compliance with the ESEF Regulation
As part of our audit of the Financial Statements we performed procedures to express an opinion on whether the annual report of SP Group A/S for the financial year 1 January to 31 December 2025 with the filename SPGroup-2025-12-31-da.zip is prepared, in all material respects, in compliance with the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815 on the European Single Electronic Format (ESEF Regulation) which includes requirements related to the preparation of the annual report in XHTML format and iXBRL tagging of the Consolidated Financial Statements including notes.
Management is responsible for preparing an annual report that complies with the ESEF Regulation. This responsibility includes:
- The preparing of the annual report in XHTML format;
- The selection and application of appropriate iXBRL tags, including extensions to the ESEF taxonomy and the anchoring thereof to elements in the taxonomy, for all financial information required to be tagged using judgement where necessary;
- Ensuring consistency between iXBRL tagged data and the Consolidated Financial Statements presented in human-readable format; and
- For such internal control as Management determines necessary to enable the preparation of an annual report that is compliant with the ESEF Regulation.
Our responsibility is to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the annual report is prepared, in all material respects, in compliance with the ESEF Regulation based on the evidence we have obtained, and to issue a report that includes our opinion. The nature, timing and extent of procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material departures from the requirements set out in the ESEF Regulation, whether due to fraud or error. The procedures include:
- Testing whether the annual report is prepared in XHTML format;
- Obtaining an understanding of the company's iXBRL tagging process and of internal control over the tagging process;
- Evaluating the completeness of the iXBRL tagging of the Consolidated Financial Statements including notes;
- Evaluating the appropriateness of the company's use of iXBRL elements selected from the ESEF taxonomy and the creation of extension elements where no suitable element in the ESEF taxonomy has been identified;
- Evaluating the use of anchoring of extension elements to elements in the ESEF taxonomy; and
- Reconciling the iXBRL tagged data with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements.
In our opinion, the annual report of SP Group A/S for the financial year 1 January to 31 December 2025 with the file name SPGroup-2025-12-31-da.zip is prepared, in all material respects, in compliance with the ESEF Regulation.

SP Group
The independent auditor's limited assurance report on the sustainability reporting
To the stakeholders of SP Group A/S
Limited assurance conclusion
We have conducted a limited assurance engagement on the sustainability statement of SP Group A/S (the "Group") included in the Management's Review (the "Sustainability Statement"), page 45-118 for the financial year 1 January – 31 December 2025.
Based on the procedures we have performed and the evidence we have obtained, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Sustainability Statement is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act paragraph 99 a, including:
- compliance with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), including that the process carried out by the management to identify the information reported in the Sustainability Statement (the "Process") is in accordance with the description set out in the sections "Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities", "Result of the identification- and assessment phase", and "Double materiality matrix"; and
- compliance of the disclosures in section "Taxonomy reporting" of the Sustainability Statement with Article 8 of EU Regulation 2020/852 (the "Taxonomy Regulation").
Basis for conclusion
We conducted our limited assurance engagement in accordance with International Standard on Assurance Engagements (ISAE) 3000 (Revised), Assurance engagements other than audits or reviews of historical financial information ("ISAE 3000 (Revised)") and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark.
The procedures in a limited assurance engagement vary in nature and timing from, and are less in extent than for, a reasonable assurance engagement. Consequently, the level of assurance obtained in a limited assurance engagement is substantially lower than the assurance that would have been obtained had a reasonable assurance engagement been performed.
We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our conclusion. Our responsibilities under this standard are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the assurance engagement section of our report.
Our independence and quality management
We are independent of the Group in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) and the additional ethical requirements applicable in Denmark. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code.
Our firm applies International Standard on Quality Management 1, which requires the firm to design, implement and operate a system of quality management including policies or procedures regarding compliance with ethical requirements, professional standards and applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
Management's responsibilities for the Sustainability Statement
Management is responsible for designing and implementing a process to identify the information reported in the Sustainability Statement in accordance with the ESRS and for disclosing this Process as included in the sections "Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities", "Result of the identification- and assessment phase", and "Double materiality matrix" of the Sustainability Statement. This responsibility includes:
- understanding the context in which the Group's activities and business relationships take place and developing an understanding of its affected stakeholders;
Annual report 2025
Financial statements
Statement by Management and auditor's report
SP Group
178
- the identification of the actual and potential impacts (both negative and positive) related to sustainability matters, as well as risks and opportunities that affect, or could reasonably be expected to affect, the Group's financial position, financial performance, cash flows, access to finance or cost of capital over the short-, medium-, or long-term;
- the assessment of the materiality of the identified impacts, risks and opportunities related to sustainability matters by selecting and applying appropriate thresholds; and
- making assumptions that are reasonable in the circumstances.
Management is further responsible for the preparation of the Sustainability Statement, which includes the information identified by the Process, in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act paragraph 99 a, including:
- compliance with the ESRS;
- preparing the disclosures as included in section "Taxonomy reporting" of the Sustainability Statement, in compliance with Article 8 of the Taxonomy Regulation;
- designing, implementing and maintaining such internal control that management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the Sustainability Statement that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and
- the selection and application of appropriate sustainability reporting methods and making assumptions and estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances.
Inherent limitations in preparing the Sustainability Statement
In reporting forward-looking information in accordance with ESRS, Management is required to prepare forward-looking information on the basis of disclosed assumptions about events that may occur in the future and possible future actions by the Group. Actual outcomes are likely to be different since anticipated events frequently do not occur as expected.
Auditor's responsibilities for the assurance engagement
Our responsibility is to plan and perform the assurance engagement to obtain limited assurance about whether the Sustainability Statement is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a limited assurance report that includes our conclusion. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence decisions of users taken on the basis of the Sustainability Statement as a whole.
As part of a limited assurance engagement in accordance with ISAE 3000 (Revised) we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the engagement.
Our responsibilities in respect of the Process include:
- Obtaining an understanding of the Process, but not for the purpose of providing a conclusion on the effectiveness of the Process, including the outcome of the Process;
- Considering whether the information identified addresses the applicable disclosure requirements of the ESRS; and
- Designing and performing procedures to evaluate whether the Process is consistent with the Group's description of its Process,
as disclosed in the sections "Description of the process to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities", "Result of the identification- and assessment phase", and "Double materiality matrix".
Our other responsibilities in respect of the Sustainability Statement include:
- Identifying where material misstatements are likely to arise, whether due to fraud or error; and
- Designing and performing procedures responsive to disclosures in the Sustainability Statement where material misstatements are likely to arise. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Summary of the work performed
A limited assurance engagement involves performing procedures to obtain evidence about the Sustainability Statement. The nature, timing and extent of procedures selected depend on professional judgement, including the identification of disclosures where material misstatements are likely to arise, whether due to fraud or error, in the Sustainability Statement.
In conducting our limited assurance engagement, with respect to the Process, we:
- Obtained an understanding of the Process by performing inquiries to understand the sources of the information used by management; and reviewing the Group's internal documentation of its Process; and

In conducting our limited assurance engagement, with respect to the Sustainability Statement, we:
-
Obtained an understanding of the Group's reporting processes relevant to the preparation of its Sustainability Statement including the consolidation processes by obtaining an understanding of the Group's control environment, processes and information systems relevant to the preparation of the Sustainability Statement but not evaluating the design of particular control activities, obtaining evidence about their implementation or testing their operating effectiveness;
