NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
The Consolidated Financial Statements of REKOM
Group A/S and its subsidiaries (‘the Group’) for the year
ended 31 December 2025 has been approved by the
Board of Directors at its meeting on 15 June 2026 and
will be presented to the shareholders of REKOM Group
A/S for approval on the annual general meeting.
The material accounting policies adopted in the
preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements
are stated in this note as well as below in the relevant
notes. These policies have been consistently applied to
all the years presented.
The Consolidated Financial Statements are for the
Group consisting of REKOM Group A/S and its
subsidiaries.
Basis of preparation
The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group
have been prepared in accordance with IFRS accounting
standards as adopted by the EU as well as additional
Danish disclosure requirements applying to entities of
reporting class C for large enterprises.
The Consolidated Financial Statements have been
prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain
nancial instruments measured at fair value.
The Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in
Danish Kroner (DKK) and all values are rounded to the
nearest thousand, except when otherwise indicated.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has
control. The Group controls an entity where the Group
is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its
involvement with the entity and has the ability to aect
those returns through its power to direct the activities of
the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the
date on which control is transferred to the Group. They
are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account
for business combinations by the Group.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized
gains on transactions between Group companies are
eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless
the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of
the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries
have been changed where necessary to ensure
consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of
subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated
statement of prot or loss, statement of comprehensive
income, statement of changes in equity and balance
sheet respectively.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the nancial statements of each of
the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of
the primary economic environment in which the entity
operates (‘the functional currency’).
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the
functional currency using the exchange rates at the
dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and
losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions,
and from the translation of monetary assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at year end
exchange rates, are generally recognized in prot or loss.
They are deferred in equity if they are attributable to
part of the net investment in a foreign operation.
The results and nancial position of foreign operations
that have a functional currency dierent from Danish
Kroner are translated into Danish Kroner as follows:
• assets and liabilities for each balance sheet
presented are translated at the closing rate at the
date of that balance sheet
• income and expenses for each statement of prot
or loss and statement of comprehensive income are
translated at average exchange rates, and
• all resulting exchange dierences are recognized in
other comprehensive income
On consolidation, exchange dierences arising from
the translation of any net investment in foreign entities
are recognized in other comprehensive income. When
a foreign operation is sold the associated exchange
dierences are reclassied to prot or loss, as part of
the gain or loss on sale.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the
acquisition of a foreign operation are treated as assets
and liabilities of the foreign operation and translated at
the closing rate.
Foreign currency translation reserve
Exchange dierences arising on translation of the
parent company and of foreign controlled entities into
DKK, are recognized in other comprehensive income and
accumulated in a separate reserve within equity. The
cumulative amount is reclassied to prot or loss when
the net investment is disposed of.
Presentation of discontinued operations
Discontinued operations constitute a signicant part
of the company if activities and cash ows can be
operationally and nancially clearly distinguished from
the rest of the company, and where the unit has either
been disposed of or is classied as held for sale, with
the sale expected to be completed within one year in
accordance with a formal plan.
The result after tax from discontinued operations and
value adjustments after tax, as well as gains/losses from
sales, are presented on a separate line in the income
statement with adjustments for comparative gures. The
notes disclose revenue, costs, value adjustments, and tax
related to the discontinued operation.
Cash ows from operating, investing, and nancing
activities for the discontinued operations are disclosed
in a note.
Cash ow statement
The Cash Flow Statement shows the Group’s cash ows
for the year broken down by operating, investing and
nancing activities, changes for the year in cash and
cash equivalents as well as the Group’s cash and cash
equivalents at the beginning and end of the year.
Cash ows from operating activities are calculated using
the indirect method based on operating prot before
depreciation, amortisation (EBITDA) and special items
adjusted for non-cash operating items, changes in net
working capital, nancial items and taxes paid. Working
capital comprises current assets less short-term debt,
excluding items included in cash and cash equivalents.
The Cash Flow Statement cannot be derived directly
from the balance sheet and income statement.
Cash ows from investing activities comprise cash ows
from acquisitions and disposals of businesses and non-
current assets.
Cash ows from nancing activities comprise cash ows
from the raising and repayment of long-term debt
and principal element on lease payments as well as
payments to and from shareholders.
Cash and cash equivalents comprises cash and bank
balances.
Cost of goods sold
Costs of goods sold comprise costs regarding goods
directly associated to achieve revenue for the year.
Other external expenses
Other external expenses comprise expenses for
marketing, IT, other premises cost, promotion, travelling
as well as other sales and administrative expenses.
Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and
net realizable value under the FIFO method. The
net realizable value of inventories is calculated at
the amount expected to be generated by sale of the
inventories in the process of normal operations with
deduction of selling expenses.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and
bank deposits.
Other receivables
Other receivables comprise government compensation,
marketing contributions and deposits. Receivables are
measured at amortised cost, usually equalling nominal
value less writedowns for bad and doubtful debts.
Other liabilities
Other debt or liabilities covering trade creditors and
other debt are recognised at amortized cost, which
usually corresponds to the nominal value
Pepayments
Prepayments comprise prepaid expenses concerning
acquisitions, insurance premiums and subscriptions.
Prepayments are measured at cost.
Key gures
The nancial ratios have been calculated in accordance
with the recommendations of the Association of Danish
Financial Analysts. Please see section for key denitions
and terms.
New and amended standards adopted by the group
For the year ended 31 December 2025, the Group
has adopted the amendments to IAS 1 concerning the
classication of non current borrowings and the related
disclosure of covenants. Under these amendments, a
liability is classied as non current if the Group’s right
to defer settlement for at least 12 months exists at the
reporting date, with only those covenants requiring
compliance on or before that date aecting the
classication. The adoption has been applied has not
materially aected consolidated nancial statements.
In addition, amendments issued in 2025 to IAS 7/IFRS
7 regarding supplier nance arrangements and to IFRS
16 regarding sale and leaseback transactions have been
published. The Group has evaluated these changes and
determined that they did not have a material impact on
the nancial statements.
New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
IASB has issued new or amended accounting
standards and interpretations that have not yet
become eective and have consequently not been
implemented in the consolidated nancial statements
for 2025. The Group expects to adopt the accounting
standards and interpretations as they become
mandatory.
In 2025, IASB issued IFRS 18 ‘Presentation and
Disclosure in Financial Statements’ which replaces
IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’. The
Group is currently working to identify all impacts
the amendments will have on the primary nancial
statements and notes to the nancial statements.
Besides that, the new or amended standards or
interpretations are not expected to have a signicant
impact.
