New Corporate Strategy
Management has prepared Haarslev´s business plan for 2024 to 2028 to reflect the expected outcome of
implemented or planned business initiatives for the Haarslev Group.
For the period 2024–2028 Haarslev has a plan under execution focused on capturing strong capital sales
market growth, driving increased Aftermarkets penetration, and delivering on significant operational
initiatives, while continuing to invest in key organizational resources. In 2024 Haarslev increased its focus on
project profitability before growth, meaning not entering into contracts with contribution margins below
budget target levels.
Development in Activities and Financial Affairs
The revenue in Haarslev Industries A/S (excluding subsidiaries) decreased by 10.3% to DKK 795.287k (2023:
DKK 819.954k). The gross margin increased from 17% in 2023 to 29% in 2024. Comparing actual performance
in 2024 to the Outlook for 2024 presented in the 2023 Annual Report, revenue decreased but EBITDA and
Profit for the year increased significantly. During 2024, there was an increased focus on profit before growth,
meaning not entering into contracts with contribution margins lower than budget targets and ensuring
appropriate cost/input price estimations. The results for the year 2024 exceeded budget expectations with a
strong gross margin increase, driven by better pricing practices and better project execution. Management
considers the result for 2024 to be satisfactory.
The Order Intake (OI) in 2024, in the Group was lower than expected, partly driven by slowdown in global
industrial CAPEX spend, several capital sales projects originally set for 2024 are now being planned for 2025,
and deselection of certain lower-margin projects, given a heightened price discipline.
Russian activities
Since the invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Haarslev focused on applying the sanctions rules. A provision
on ongoing projects in 2022 was made to cover extra cost of finalizing the projects and closing the entity in
Russia.
In 2024 the few remaining projects were finalized and the entity in Russia was closed down.
The surplus of DKK 21.208k of the original provision has been taken to income in 2024 in the Group.
EBTDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization)
Haarslev industries A/S is owned by Haarslev Group A/S, which is owned by Haarslev Group Holding A/S. The
two holding companies have only the activity to be holding companies.
Haarslev Group Holding A/S

Uncertainty relating to recognition and measurement
In the opinion of Management, the following accounting estimates and assessments are significant in the
preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements:
Key accounting estimate Note Estimation risk
Work in progress (and thereby revenue and production costs) 18 Medium
Inventory (and thereby production costs) 17 Medium
Risk Management
Because of its operations, investments, and financing, the Group is exposed to volatility in terms of raw
material prices, exchange rates, and the level of interest. The risk of changes in raw material prices is to a
degree contractually transferred to our customers. The Group does not enter financial instruments for
hedging.
Operational Risk Management
The main operational risk in the Group relates to the execution of large complex customer projects. The
Group’s extensive know-how and many years of experience within project management are the main
components in mitigating this risk. Bid reviews and project support from central knowledge centers are an
integrated part of the project management process.
Additionally, several reporting procedures have been set up in order to monitor project progress and to
ensure actions are taken if unforeseen issues arise during the project lifetime. The status on the largest
projects is reported to the Board of Directors on a monthly basis.
In relation to the preparation of the financial statements, management has a particular focus on the control
procedures in relation to the following items:
• Revenue recognition of large projects
• Valuation of work in progress
The formal monthly reporting procedures, as well as review meetings, are set up to mitigate risks related to
these items.
Resources
The Group has considerable resources within its field of activity, which may be divided into four categories:
Customers, Technology, Processes, and Staff Relations.
Customers
The Group aims at creating value for its customers by providing intelligent solutions, created in cooperation
with the individual customer, meeting the customers’ expectations through the delivery of customized, high-
quality products, delivered in accordance with terms of delivery, etc. The key performance indicators in this
respect include customer satisfaction and customer loyalty. Follow-up is made regularly through close
dialogue with customers.
Haarslev Industries A/S
16 | P a g e
Technology
It is important for the Group – in both the short and long term – to ensure the right portfolio of production
technologies and a continued further development of existing production technologies.
Processes
The critical business processes relate to the development of individual solutions, quality, and service. The
individual methods and procedures are documented in order to make sure the customer receives the agreed
service. Compliance with time of delivery and the scope of warranty expenses are important indicators of the
functionality of business processes. The Group constantly makes great efforts to ensure that the goals set up
for the business processes are complied with.
Furthermore, the Group’s internal development activities are constantly focused on improving products and
processes, often in cooperation with the customer.
Staff Relations
In order to continuously be able to deliver and develop competitive products and solutions, it is crucial that
the Group is capable of recruiting and retaining highly qualified employees.
The number of employees has developed as follows:
Average number of employees for the Group was 829 in 2024 (2023: 888). Total number of employees end of
2024 was 784 (of which 264 are in Denmark), compared to 855 in 2023 (of which 320 are in Denmark).
Research and Development Activities
The Group is not engaged in research, but is developing its technologies, processes, and competencies on an
ongoing basis. One part of this development work is related to updating and improving existing technologies,
both equipment and software solutions, while the other is related to the development of new equipment.

guidelines in accordance with the development in and around the Group.
Events after the balance sheet date
No events that would influence the evaluation of this annual report have occurred from the date of the
balance sheet up to this current date.
Outlook
Haarslev is entering 2025 with a solid backlog and positive momentum. Overall, our pipeline is solid with a
healthy distribution across segments and geographies.
The outlook for 2025 is therefore positive based on backlog and successful operational re-balancing to drive
continued strong profitability and accelerate growth. Potential exceptional macro events, including increase in
tariffs causing more uncertainty, could affect outlook more negative, such as weaker industrial capex or
geopolitics, despite of the end-market food producers/rendering market being less affected by such
geopolitical issues.
Haarslev Industries A/S

For 2025, we expect to achieve revenue of DKK 800m – 850m, , EBITDA before exceptional items with a
margin of 10-15% and a profit for the year margin of 5-7%. These expectations reflects the increased global
economic uncertainties.

Overview of notes and accounting policies
1. Introduction
Reporting entity
Haarslev Industries A/S is the reporting entity. Haarslev Industries A/S is a limited liability Company
incorporated in Denmark. Referring to 109(3) of the financial statement Act, no consolidated financial
statements have been prepared. Haarslev Industries A/S is included in the consolidated numbers of Haarslev
Group Holding A/S, CVR.no. 33 96 93 76, with registered office in Nordfyns kommune.
On 30 April 2025, the Board of Directors and the Executive Management Board considered and approved the
2024 Financial Statements of Haarslev Industries A/S. The Financial Statements will be presented to the
shareholders of Haarslev Industries A/S for approval at the ordinary Annual General Meeting on 30 April 2025.
The principal accounting policies
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation are set out in the sections below. The principal
accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Financial Statements of the Company have been
consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards (“IFRS”) as adopted by the EU and additional Danish disclosure requirements for the financial
statements of reporting class C large, cf. the Danish Executive Order on Adoption of IFRSs (“IFRS
bekendtgørelsen”) issued in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act (“DFSA”).
The notes and accounting policy sections are divided into areas that describe the various aspects of the
accounts. The notes also include the accounting policy, estimates and uncertainties and figures.
Measurement basis
The Company’s Financial Statements are prepared according to the historical cost convention except that
derivatives and financial instruments classified as “Fair value through profit loss” (FVTPL) are measured at fair
value. Assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of the carrying amount before the changed
presentation and the fair value less costs to sell. The accounting policies, set out below and in the notes, have
been used consistently in respect of the financial year and to comparative figures.
The Financial Statements are presented in Danish Kroner (DKK) which is the Company’s functional currency.
Application of materiality and relevance
The Financial Statements are based on the concept of materiality and relevance to ensure that the content is
material and relevant to the user. When assessing materiality and relevance, due consideration is given to
ensure compliance with applicable accounting legislation etc. and to ensure that the Financial Statements give
a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position at the balance sheet date.
The Financial Statements consist of many transactions. These transactions are aggregated into classes
according to their nature or function and presented in classes of similar items in the Financial Statements and
in the notes as required by IFRS. If items are individually immaterial, they are aggregated with other items of
similar nature in the statements or in the notes.
Haarslev Industries A/S
27 | P a g e
Management provides specific disclosures required by IFRS unless the information is not applicable or is
considered immaterial to the decision making of the primary users of these financial statements.
Significant accounting policies
Management considers the accounting policies for the following areas as the most important for the
Company:
Revenue
Work in Progress
Inventory
Significant estimates
In the preparation of the Financial Statements, Management undertakes several accounting estimates and
assessments and makes assumptions which provide the basis for recognition and measurement of the assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses of the Company. The key accounting estimates identified are those that
have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the measurement of assets and liabilities in the
following reporting period. These estimates assessments, and assumptions are based on historical experience
and other factors which the Management considers reasonable under the circumstances, but which by their
nature are uncertain and unpredictable. The assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate and unanticipated
events or circumstances may occur, for which reason the actual results may deviate from the applied
estimates, assessments, and assumptions. In addition, the Company is subject to risks and uncertainties that
may cause actual outcomes to deviate from these estimates. Management considers the key accounting
estimates to be reasonable and appropriate based on currently available information. The actual amounts
may differ from the amounts estimated as more detailed information becomes available.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. If necessary, changes are
recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised.
In the opinion of Management, the following accounting estimates and assessments are significant in the
preparation of the Financial Statements:
Key accounting estimate Note Estimation risk
Work in progress (and thereby revenue and production costs)
14 Medium
Inventory (and thereby production costs) 13 Medium
2. Translation of foreign currencies
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the Financial Statements of each of the Group’s enterprises are measured using the
functional currency of the primary economic environment in which the enterprise operates. The Financial
Statements are presented in Danish Kroner (DKK).
Translation of transactions and balances
On initial recognition, foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the
exchange rate prevailing at the date of transaction. Currency gains and losses resulting from the settlement of
Haarslev Industries A/S
28 | P a g e
these transactions as well as from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the Income statement as Financial income or expenses.
Non-current assets acquired in foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of
acquisition. Gains and losses on hedges relating to the acquisition of non-current assets are recognised as part
of the value of the non-current asset at its initial recognition.
Translation of subsidiaries
In the Financial Statements, the Income statement items of subsidiaries with a functional currency different
from DKK are translated at the average exchange rate, calculated on an average for each month, while the
balance sheet items are translated at the exchange rates at the end of the reporting period. Foreign exchange
differences arising on translation of such subsidiaries’ equity at the beginning of the reporting period to the
exchange rates at the end of the reporting period and on translation of the Income statements from average
exchange rates to the exchange rates at the end of the reporting period are recognised in Other
Comprehensive Income and attributed to a separate translation reserve under equity.
When disposing of 100%-owned foreign enterprises, exchange differences which have accumulated in Equity
via Other Comprehensive Income, and which are attributable to the enterprise, are transferred from Other
Comprehensive Income to the Income statement together with any gains or losses associated with the
disposal.
3. Accounting policy IFRS
New International Financial Reporting Standards and Interpretations
Management has assessed the impact of new or amended and revised accounting standards (IFRSs) and
interpretations (IFRICs) issued by the IASB and IFRSs endorsed by the European Union effective on or after 1
January 2024.
The Company has adopted standards and interpretations effective as of 31 December 2024. The Company has
not early adopted any standards, interpretations or amendments that have been issued but are not yet
effective. The new and amended Standards and Interpretations are not mandatory for the financial reporting
for 2024.
Management has assessed the impact of new or amended and revised accounting standards and
interpretations (IFRS Accounting Standards) issued by the IASB and IFRS Accounting Standards' endorsed by
the European Union effective on or after January 1, 2024. It is assessed that application of amendments
effective from January 1, 2024, has not had a material impact on the financial statements for 2024.
Furthermore, management does not anticipate any significant impact from new or amended accounting
standards and interpretations (IFRS Accounting Standards') issued by the IASB that have not yet become
effective. The Group has initiated but has not yet completed its analysis of the impact of IFRS 18 on the
Group’s financial statements and accompanying notes.
Presentation of the Statement of Income
Haarslev Industries A/S presents expenses in the Statement of Income in accordance with their function. This
allows the presentation of gross profit in the Statement of Income, which is a widely used performance
measure in the industry. The composition of the costs allocated to the individual functions is explained as
follows:
Haarslev Industries A/S
29 | P a g e
• Production costs encompasses all manufacturing costs (including raw materials, employee
benefits, and depreciation and amortization) related to goods and services captured in revenues.
They are measured at their actual cost based on “first in, first out” or weighted average cost;
• Selling and marketing expenses relate to the selling and marketing of goods and services.
• Administrative expenses relate to the strategic and governance role of the general management
of the Company as well as the representation of Haarslev as a whole in the financial, political or
business community. General and administrative expenses also relate to business support
activities of staff departments that are not directly related to the other functional areas.
4. Revenue
Haarslev reports its revenue on the following parameters:
Activities (Capital Sales or Aftermarkets)
Geographical areas
Activities
Our revenue comprises of two activities, Capital sales and aftermarkets. In the following table revenue is
disaggregated by capital sales (comprised of revenue from greenfield and large projects, standard equipment,
and modernization equipment) and aftermarket (comprised of maintenance, service, and spare parts).
Capital sales revenue consist of DKK 448.366k as of 31 December 2024 (2023: 458.243k) recognized over time
and DKK 130.412k (2023: 126.625k) of revenue is recognized at a point in time. All Aftermarket revenue is
recognized at a point in time.
Geographical areas
In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by primary geographical markets. Revenue is allocated based
on the country where the customer is located:
Revenue can be split into three large geographical areas, Denmark, other EU countries and non-EU countries.

Total 795.287 819.954
Haarslev Industries A/S
30 | P a g e
Accounting policies
The Group recognises revenue from the following major sources:
Capital Sales
sale of specialised manufactured machines
installation of manufactured machines for specialised business machines
sales-related warranties associated with sale of manufactured goods
sale of standard machines
Aftermarkets
maintenance and spare parts
Revenue is recognised based on the considerations specified in contracts with customers based on the five-
step process as described in IFRS 15. Revenue is recognised, when or as control over distinct goods or services
is transferred to the customer, i.e. when the customer is able to direct the use of the transferred goods or
services and obtains substantially all of the remaining benefits, provided a contract with enforceable rights
and obligations exists and amongst others collectability of consideration is probable taking into account our
customer’s creditworthiness. Revenue is the transaction price Haarslev expects to be entitled to.
Capital Sales
Sale of specialised manufactured machines
The Group constructs and sells specialised (to customer´s needs) manufactured machines under long-term
contracts with customers. Under the terms of the contracts, the Group is contractually restricted from
redirecting the properties (machines) to another customer and has an enforceable right to payment for work
done. Therefore, the specialised machines in its complete state will have no alternative use to Haarslev as
Haarslev will incur significant costs to rework the design and function of the specialised machine to direct to
another customer. Revenue from sale of specialised manufactured machines is therefore recognised over
time on a cost-to-cost method, i.e. based on the proportion of contract costs incurred for work performed to
date relative to the estimated total contract costs. An expected loss on the contract is recognized as an
expense immediately. The management consider that this input method is an appropriate measure of the
progress towards complete satisfaction of these performance obligations.
The Group becomes entitled to invoice customers for sale of specialised manufactured machines based on
achieving a series of performance-related milestones, among others the time of delivery and the time of
finalising installation. The Group will previously have recognised a contract asset for any work performed
“Work In Progress” (WIP) recognised at sales price. Any amount previously recognised as a contract asset is
reclassified to trade receivables at the point at which it is invoiced to the customer. If the milestone payment
exceeds the revenue recognised to date under the cost-to-cost method, then the Group recognises a contract
liability for the difference “Prepayment from customers”. There is not considered to be a significant financing
component in sale of specialised manufactured machines as the period between the recognition of revenue
under the cost-to-cost method and the milestone payment is normally less than one year.
Installation of manufactured machines for specialised business machines
Haarslev can sell manufactured machines for specialised business operations with or without installation.
The delivery of machines and installation are seen as two separate performance obligations – even that the
two services can be sold at the same time. This is due to:
Haarslev Industries A/S
31 | P a g e
Haarslev identifies two deliverables in the customer contract: (a) machines and (b) installation.
The promise to transfer machines and service to the customer is separately identifiable.
The installation service is routinely performed by other providers and does not significantly modify
the machines
Machines are often sold at a fix price whereas the installation is sold on time & material.
Installation services are recognised as a performance obligation satisfied over time.
Revenue is recognised for these installation services based on the stage of completion of the contract. The
management have assessed that the stage of completion determined as the proportion of the total cost
expected to install that has elapsed at the end of the reporting period is an appropriate measure of progress
towards complete satisfaction of these performance obligations. Payment for installation is not due from the
customer until the installation services are complete. Therefore, a contract asset “Work In Progress” (WIP) is
recognised (at sales price) over the period in which the installation services are performed representing the
entity’s right to consideration for the services performed to date.
Sales-related warranties associated with sale of manufactured goods
Sales-related warranties associated with sale of manufactured goods cannot be purchased separately and
they serve as an assurance that the products sold comply with agreed-upon specifications. Accordingly, the
Group accounts for warranties in accordance with IAS 37 (refer to note 14).
Sale of standard machines
For sale of standard machines, revenue is recognised when control of the goods has transferred, being when
the goods have been shipped to the customer’s specific location (delivery). The standard machines have an
alternative use for Haarslev and the contract does not preclude Haarslev from directing the completed
standard machine to another customer. Standard Machines in progress are recognised as part of inventory
until delivery. A receivable is recognised by the Company when the goods are delivered to the customer, as
only the passage of time is required before payment is due.
Aftermarkets
Maintenance and spare parts
Maintenance relating to sale of manufactured machines is not included in the transaction price for the sale of
manufactured goods. The maintenance service is considered to be a distinct service as it is both regularly
supplied by the Company to other customers on a stand-alone basis and is available for customers from other
providers in the market. Revenue relating to the maintenance services is recognised at the time of invoicing.
For spare parts, revenue is recognised when control of the spare parts has transferred, being when the spare
parts have been shipped to the customer’s specific location (delivery). Delivery occurs when the spare parts
have been shipped to the customer’s specific location. A receivable is recognised by the Company when the
spare parts are delivered to the customer, as only the passage of time is required before payment is due.
Haarslev Industries A/S
32 | P a g e
Accounting estimates
Sales of goods In Haarslev’s business model, relate to sales of standard equipment and sales of complete
solutions or systems (Sale of specialised manufactured machines). Standard equipment requires no or minor
modifications as requested by customers. Sales of complete solutions or systems (Sale of specialised
manufactured machines) require significant modifications either requested by the customer or required to
fulfil the customer’s needs.
The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method in accounting for its revenues for complete
solutions or systems. The percentage-of-completion method places considerable importance on accurate
estimates of the extent of progress towards completion and may involve estimates on the scope of deliveries
and services required for fulfilling the contractually defined obligations. These estimates include total
estimated costs, total estimated revenues, contract risks, including technical, political, and regulatory risks,
and other judgments. Under the percentage-of-completion method, changes in estimates may lead to an
increase or decrease of revenue.
5. Cost
Accounting policies
Production cost
Production costs comprise expenses incurred to earn revenue for the financial year. Production costs
comprise direct and indirect costs for raw materials and consumables, wages and salaries, rent and lease,
amortization, depreciation, and impairment losses relating to intangible assets and property, plant and
equipment included in the production process. Production costs includes ordinary write-down of inventories.
Furthermore, provisions for losses on contract work are recognized.
Productions costs also include research and development costs that do not qualify for capitalization as well as
amortization of capitalized development costs. R&D cost in 2024 amounts to DKK 8.7m of which DKK 4.6m has
been capitalised. The accumulated capitalised R&D costs amounts to DKK 13.1m at 31 December 2024 (of
which DKK 6.3m is under construction).Research and development comprise direct costs, payroll costs and
depreciations and impairments that, directly or indirectly, can be attributed to the Group’s development
activities. Capitalisation of product development costs will only take place if the criteria are met. Development
projects that are clearly defined and identified and where the technical utilisation, sufficient resources and a
potential market or development opportunities can be documented, and where the Group intends to
manufacture, market or use the product commercially, are recognised under intangible assets. Product
development costs that meet the criteria for recognition in the balance sheet are measured at cost, incl.
indirectly incurred costs. Product development costs that do not meet the criteria for capitalisation in the
balance sheet and research costs are recognised in the income statement on an ongoing basis.
Sales and Distribution costs
Distribution costs comprise costs incurred for sale and distribution, including wages and salaries for sales staff,
advertising costs, travelling and entertainment expenses, etc. as well as amortization, depreciation, and
impairment losses relating to intangible assets and property, plant and equipment attached to the distribution
process.
Administrative costs
Administrative costs comprise expenses incurred for the administrative functions, including wages and salaries
for administrative staff and Management, stationery, and office supplies as well as amortization, depreciation
and impairment losses relating to intangible assets and property, plant and equipment used for
administration.
Haarslev Industries A/S

6. Employee benefits
Group Management (average 4 persons (2023: 4)) is considered to be key management personnel.
Incentive programs for executive boards members
With members of the executive board a cash-based bonus programs have been established which will be paid
if an external sale of the Haarslev Group occurs. The bonus amount will depend on historical and future
performance and enterprise value. Management expects that any outflow of resources related to the bonus
programs at present are remote.
Accounting policies
The employee benefit expenses relate to employees who are employed at Haarslev Industries A/S, both with
permanent and temporary contracts.

Accounting estimates
Management judgement regarding recognition of deferred income tax assets and provisions for uncertain tax
positions. Haarslev is subject to income taxes around the world. Estimates are required in determining the
worldwide accrual for income taxes, deferred income tax assets and liabilities, and provisions for uncertain tax
positions.
Haarslev recognises deferred income tax assets if it is probable that sufficient taxable income will be available
in the foreseeable future which usually is within 3-5 years, against which the temporary differences and
unused tax losses can be utilised. Management has considered future taxable income and applied its
judgement in assessing whether deferred income tax assets should be recognised.
In the course of conducting business globally, tax and transfer pricing disputes with tax authorities may occur.
Management judgement is applied to assess the possible outcome of such disputes. The 'most probable
outcome' method is applied when making provisions for uncertain tax positions, and Haarslev considers the
provisions made to be adequate. However, the actual obligation may deviate and depends on the result of
litigation and settlements with the relevant tax authorities.

Accounting policies
Acquired rights are carried at historical cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment loss.
Amortisation is based on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life. This means the legal duration
or the economic useful life depending on which is shorter, and not exceeding 15 years.
Knowhow is recognised as intangible assets if the recognition criteria are met, for example a significant
business knowhow where the expenditure leads to the creation of a durable asset. Amortisation is based on
the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 20 years. The amortisation begins when the asset is
in the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by
Management. The knowhow mainly consist of the merger with the company Core in 2022 with the value of
DKK 19.190k as of 31 December 2024 (2023: DKK 21.931k).
Development projects Internal research costs are charged in full to the consolidated income statement in the
period in which they are incurred.
Assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment on a yearly basis or whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
If the carrying amount of intangible assets exceeds the recoverable amount any impairment is measured
based on discounted projected cash flows. There is in 2024 not any indications for impairment losses.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment as above are included in the Statement of Income.
For further information for land and buildings and securities, refer to note 23.
Accounting policy
Buildings, plant and machinery as well as other fixtures and fittings, tools and equipment are measured at cost
less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost comprises the acquisition price, costs directly
attributable to the acquisition and preparation costs of the asset until the time when it is ready to be put into
operation. For self-manufactured assets, cost comprises direct costs of materials, components, sub-suppliers
and labor costs attributable to the construction of the assets. The basis of depreciation is cost less estimated
residual value after the end of useful life and the scrap value. Straight-line depreciation is made on the basis
of the following estimated useful lives of the assets:
Buildings 25 years
Plant and machinery 3-10 years
Other fixtures and fittings, tools and equipment 3-10 years

11. Leases
Leases illustrated above include equipment and building.
Lease liability and interests is illustrated in separate note long term liability note 20.
Depreciation of right of use assets analysis in the Financial Statement of Income is illustrated above.
Accounting policy
Haarslev mainly leases trucks and vehicles. The right of use asset is presented in equipment and the lease
liability in borrowings. For contracts which are, or contain, a lease, the Company recognises a right of use
asset and lease liability. The right of use asset is initially measured at cost, which being the initial amount of
the lease liability, added related re-establish cost when the lease period is ended. The right of use asset is
subsequently depreciated using straight line method over the lease term (period). If there is no end of the
lease term defined in the contract it has been estimated.
The right of use asset is periodically adjusted for certain remeasurement of the lease liability and reduced by
impairment losses.
New lease contracts with a lease term of 12 months or less and leases of low value assets are not recognised
on the balance sheet. These are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease of low value asset

and other short term leases include mobile phones and other small items of office equipment. The value of
these assets are DKK 152k (2023: DKK 234k).
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments outstanding at the
commencement date, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate. The lease liability is measured using
effective interest method.
The lease liability is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments, typically due to a change in
index or rate on property leases, or if there is a reassessment of whether an extension or termination option
will be exercised. A corresponding adjustment is made to the right of use asset, or the income statement
when the right of use asset has been fully depreciated.

13. Inventories
In 2024 the write-down of inventories to net-realizable value amounted to DKK 30,787k (2023: DKK 12,233k).
The write-downs recognized following a recoverability analysis are included in cost of sales. In 2024 there has
been additional write down for old inventory items in the inventory, and an update of calculation for this.
Cost of change of inventory which are included in the income statement as production costs are DKK 392.797k
(2023: DKK 476.753k).
Accounting policy
Inventories are measured at the lower cost using the FIFO method or net realizable value if this is lower. Cost
consists of purchase price plus delivery costs. Cost of manufactured goods and work in progress consists of
costs of raw materials, consumables, direct labor costs and indirect production costs.
Indirect production costs comprise indirect materials and labor costs, costs of maintenance of, depreciation of
and impairment losses relating to machinery, factory buildings and equipment used in the manufacturing
process as well as costs of factory administration and management. Financing costs are not included in cost.
The net realizable value of inventories is calculated as the estimated selling price less completion costs and
costs incurred to execute sale.
If the expected sales price less completion costs to execute sales (net realizable value) is lower than the
carrying amount, a write-down is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds its net
realizable value.
Accounting estimates
Indirect production costs are measured using a standard cost method. This is reviewed regularly to ensure
relevant measures of capacity utilisation, production lead time, cost base and other relevant factors, hence
inventory is valued at actual cost. When calculating total inventory, Management must make judgements
about cost of production, standard cost variances and idle capacity in estimating indirect production costs for
capitalisation. Changes in the parameters for calculation of indirect production costs could have an impact on
the gross margin and the overall valuation of inventories.

14. Work in progress for third parties
Work in progress for third parties (contract liabilities) consist of projects where on account invoicing/payment

closed; which have a high impact on the work in progress for third parties gross value and on account
invoicing.
Prepayments received from customers; is prepayment received from customers for projects not yet started;
which include projects with Work in progress of 0%.
Prepayment received from customers of DKK 31.163k (2023: DKK 64.640k), relate to payments made by
customers prior to transfer of control of the related goods or services to the customer and recognition of
revenue. Typically, this comprises deposits placed on order of equipment and other milestone payments paid
during the period of construction.

The changes in prepayments relate to high prepayments for orders in Q4 in 2023; where the project has
started in 2024; and therefore reclassified to work in progress; contract liabilities through 2024 there has
increased through 2024 from DKK 31.778k in 2023 to DKK 58.592k in 2024.
Prepayment received beginning of the year 2024 DKK 64.640k (2023: DKK 13.634k) was recognized in the
current reporting period.
There was no adjustment in the current reporting period to revenue that relates to performance obligations
that were not satisfied in a prior period.
Accounting policies
The Company becomes entitled to invoice customers for sale of specialised manufactured machines based on
achieving a series of performance-related milestones, among others the time of delivery and the time of
finalising installation. The Company will previously have recognised a contract asset for any work performed
“Work In Progress” (WIP) recognised at sales price. Any amount previously recognised as a contract asset is
reclassified to trade receivables at the point at which it is invoiced to the customer. If the milestone payment
exceeds the revenue recognised to date under the cost-to-cost method then the Company recognises a
contract liability for the difference “Prepayment from customers”.
Accounting estimates
“Work In Progress” (WIP) recognised at sales price The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method
in accounting for its revenues for complete solutions or systems. The percentage-of-completion method
places considerable importance on accurate estimates of the extent of progress towards completion and may
involve estimates on the scope of deliveries and services required for fulfilling the contractually defined
obligations. These estimates include total estimated costs, total estimated revenues, contract risks, including
technical, political and regulatory risks, and other judgments. Under the percentage-of-completion method,
changes in estimates may lead to an increase or decrease of revenue. In addition, Haarslev needs to assess
whether the contract is expected to continue or to be terminated. In determining whether the continuation or
termination of a contract is expected to be the most likely scenario, all relevant facts and circumstances
relating to the contract are considered on an individual basis.
Write down of work in progress includes provisions from large projects started in 2022; in 2023 Russian
customer/projects had a high impact on the numbers. The company provides contingency provision for each
project. During the progress of the project for contingencies for each project is provided as a percentage of
the progressed value. The high spend amount in 2024, consist of Russian projects were closed final and
therefor the provision utilised.

15. Trade receivables
Through 2023, a number of overdue receivable have been settled, which impacts the high reversal amount in
2023. In 2024 there has not been any issues with overdue receivables.
Accounting policy
Receivables are measured at amortized cost, usually equalling transaction price less write downs (allowance)
for doubtful receivables.
General invoices are due for payment after 30 days from shipment of goods, down payments for projects
after 7 days. Loss allowance is based on expected credit losses. Loss for disputes is recognized against
revenue, loss for doubtful receivables is recognized in distribution cost in Statement of comprehensive
income.
Accounting estimates
Management makes allowance for doubtful trade receivables based on the simplified approach, which means
that lifetime expected losses are provided for. The allowance is an estimate based on shared credit risk
characteristics and the days past due.
For trade receivables with objective evidence of impairment, expected credit losses are based on individual
assessment and amounts to DKK 1.642k at 31 December 2024 (2023: DKK 1.723k). Objective evidence is
mainly related to disputes.

assets and liabilities, for which the tax-based value of assets is calculated based on the planned use of each
asset. Deferred tax assets, including tax base of tax loss carry forwards, are recognised in the balance sheet at
their estimated realizable value, either as a set-off against deferred tax liabilities or as a tax asset.

Risk management framework
The main financial risks faced by Haarslev relate to market risk and liquidity risk. Risk management is carried
out by Group finance under policies and with instruments approved by the Board of Directors. Group Finance
identifies, evaluates financial risks in close cooperation with the Company’s operating units. The Group’s
overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize
potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance. Refer to (1) foreign exchange risk below.
Financial Risk
Financial risk is the risk that changes in market prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its
holdings of financial instruments. Financial risk comprises (1) foreign exchange risk, (2) interest rate risk. The
objective of Financial risk management is to manage and control Financial risk exposures within acceptable
parameters, while optimizing the return. When contracts are won, components as steel with high risk are
bought to minimize the total risk. Sales contracts are made in EUR when possible.
(1) Foreign exchange risk
The Company operates internationally and is exposed to currency risk arising from mainly the USD, EUR, DKK
and BRL, primarily with respect to the DKK, as the DKK is the Company’s reporting currency. The ´Company
monitors foreign exchange risk arising from commercial transactions, recognized assets and liabilities
(transaction risk) that are determined in a currency other than the entity’s functional currency.
Exposure on exchange rate is not managed through any hedging instruments, however, controlled by keeping
contracts mainly in currency EUR and DKK with related project cost in same currency.
Company Loans are also done in EUR. The EUR/DKK exchange rate is not considered a currency exposure due
to the Danish fixed rate policy.
The Company owns several subsidiaries that are exposed to their local currency fluctuations towards DKK.
These are however adjusted as part of comprehensive income and not considered here. (Impact on subsidiary
currency exposure booked as comprehensive income was DKK 4 mln in 2024 compared to DKK -16 mln in
2023).
The main currency exposure is driven by the US Dollar. Exposure in 2024 was related to a balance of DKK 6
mln. Assuming a currency increase of 10% exposure can be calculated as DKK 3.5 mln. Through the year the
exposure have a positive impact. Compared to 2023 where the balance was DKK -70 mln with an exposure of
DKK -7 mln.
(2) Interest rate risk
The Company is exposed mainly to floating interest rate risk on borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable
rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. For every 1% change in floating interest rate the
impact in the Equity and result with the amount of DKK 2.7 mln as of 31 December 2024 (2023: DKK 2.8 mln).
The interest rate risk is monitored on a regular basis, including considerations whether financial instruments
should be implemented as risk mitigation.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty fails to meet its contractual
obligations. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, and deposits with banks and financial
Haarslev Industries A/S
56 | P a g e
institutions, as well as credit exposures to customers and other group entities, including outstanding
receivables and committed transactions. The credit quality of the customer is assessed, considering its
financial position, past experience and other factors. Each customer has a set credit limit and the utilization of
the credit limit is regularly monitored.
The Company has no significant concentrations of credit risk. The Company has policies in place to ensure that
sales of products and services are made to customers with an appropriate credit history. The Company
establishes an allowance for impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and
other receivables. No significant credit limits were exceeded during the reporting period, and management
does not expect any losses from non-performance by its customers.
The Company does not expect any impairment on cash and cash equivalents as the Company considers that
its cash and cash equivalents have low credit risk based on the external credit ratings of the counterparties.
Capital management
The Board of Directors’ policy is to maintain a strong capital base in order to maintain investor, creditor and
market confidence and to sustain future development of the business.
The Board monitors the Group's leverage, defined as net debt divided by EBITDA. The Board also monitors the
level of dividends to ordinary shareholders.
The Board seeks to maintain a balance between the higher returns on equity that might be possible with
higher levels of borrowings and the advantages and security of a sound capital position. The Group uses the
leverage ratio in its approach to capital management.
22. Contingent liabilities
Haarslev is involved in disputes and claims with customers and employees in certain regions. The outcome of
ongoing disputes and claims is not expected to have significant impact on the financial position.
