Highlights
• EPKINLY™ (epcoritamab-bysp) was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(U.S. FDA) as the first bispecific antibody to treat adults with relapsed or refractory diffuse
large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)
• Genmab and AbbVie Inc. (AbbVie) announced positive topline results from the Phase 1/2
EPCORE™ NHL-1 trial evaluating epcoritamab in patients with relapsed/refractory
follicular lymphoma (FL)
• Genmab revenue increased 34% compared to the first six months of 2022, to DKK 7,052
million
• Genmab 2023 financial guidance updated
“The U.S. FDA approval of EPKINLY as the first bispecific antibody to treat adults with relapsed or
refractory DLBCL was an important milestone both for Genmab and for patients in need of an innovative
treatment option administered subcutaneously. We would like to thank the patients and investigators who
took part in the EPCORE NHL-1 trial that was the basis of this approval, as well as the unstoppable team
at Genmab responsible for the discovery, development and now commercialization of EPKINLY. We also
thank our partners at AbbVie for their excellent collaboration as we work together to bring EPKINLY to
cancer patients,” said Jan van de Winkel, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Genmab.
Financial Performance First Half of 2023
• Net sales of DARZALEX
®
by Janssen Biotech, Inc. (Janssen) were USD 4,695 million in the first
six months of 2023 compared to USD 3,842 million in the first six months of 2022, an increase of
USD 853 million, or 22%.
• Royalty revenue was DKK 5,935 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to DKK 4,727
million in the first six months of 2022, an increase of DKK 1,208 million, or 26%. The increase in
royalties was driven by higher net sales of DARZALEX and Kesimpta
®
.
• Revenue was DKK 7,052 million for the first six months of 2023 compared to DKK 5,281 million
for the first six months of 2022. The increase of DKK 1,771 million, or 34%, was primarily driven
by higher DARZALEX and Kesimpta royalties achieved under our collaborations with Janssen
and Novartis Pharma AG (Novartis), respectively, a milestone achieved under our collaboration
with AbbVie for the first commercial sale of EPKINLY in the United States, and higher
reimbursement revenue driven by increased activities under our collaboration with BioNTech SE
(BioNTech).
• Operating expenses were DKK 5,118 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to DKK
3,520 million in the first six months of 2022. The increase of DKK 1,598 million, or 45%, was
driven by the expansion of our product pipeline, EPKINLY launch in the U.S., the continued
development of Genmab’s broader organizational capabilities, and related increase in team
members to support these activities.
• Operating profit was DKK 1,934 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to DKK 1,761
million in the first six months of 2022.
• Net financial items resulted in income of DKK 75 million for the first six months of 2023 compared
to DKK 1,340 million in the first six months of 2022. The decrease of DKK 1,265 million, or 94%,
was primarily driven by movements in USD to DKK foreign exchange rates impacting Genmab’s

As previously announced on July 28, 2023, Genmab updated its 2023 financial guidance driven by the
continued strong growth of DARZALEX net sales and higher total royalty revenues from DARZALEX and
other marketed products, partly offset by increased and accelerated investment for epcoritamab clinical
trials and progression of other pipeline products.
Revenue
Genmab expects its 2023 revenue to be in the range of DKK 15,500 – 16,500 million, an increase to the
previous guidance of DKK 14,600 – 16,100 million, driven by the continued strong growth of DARZALEX
net sales and higher total royalty revenues from DARZALEX and other marketed products. DARZALEX
royalties are based on Genmab’s revised estimate of DARZALEX 2023 net sales of USD 9.8 – 10.0 billion
compared to Genmab’s previous estimate of USD 9.4 – 10.0 billion.
Operating Expenses
Genmab anticipates its 2023 operating expenses to be in the range of DKK 10,400 – 10,900 million, an
increase to the previous guidance of DKK 9,800 – 10,600 million, primarily related to increased and
accelerated investment for epcoritamab clinical trials and progression of other pipeline products.
Operating Profit
Genmab now expects its 2023 operating profit to be in the range of DKK 4,500 – 6,000 million, compared
to the previous guidance of DKK 3,900 – 6,200 million, driven primarily by the items described above.
Outlook: Risks and Assumptions
In addition to factors already mentioned, the estimates above are subject to change due to numerous
reasons, including but not limited to, the achievement of certain milestones associated with Genmab’s
collaboration agreements; the timing and variation of development activities (including activities carried
out by Genmab’s collaboration partners) and related income and costs; DARZALEX, DARZALEX
FASPRO
®
, Kesimpta, TEPEZZA, RYBREVANT and TECVAYLI net sales and royalties paid to Genmab;
changing rates of inflation; and currency exchange rates (the 2023 guidance assumes a USD / DKK
exchange rate of 6.8). The financial guidance assumes that no significant new agreements are entered
into during the remainder of 2023 that could materially affect the results. Refer to the section “Significant
Risks and Uncertainties” in this interim report for matters that may cause Genmab’s actual results to differ
materially from 2023 Guidance and Key 2023 Priorities in this interim report.
The factors discussed above, as well as other factors that are currently unforeseeable, may result in
further and other unforeseen material adverse impacts on Genmab’s business and financial performance,
including on the sales of Tivdak and EPKINLY, and on the net sales of DARZALEX, Kesimpta, TEPEZZA,
RYBREVANT and TECVAYLI by Genmab’s collaboration partners and on Genmab’s royalties,
collaboration revenue and milestone revenue therefrom.

Epcoritamab is a proprietary bispecific antibody created using Genmab’s DuoBody technology platform.
Epcoritamab targets CD3, which is expressed on T-cells, and CD20, a clinically validated target on
malignant B-cells. Genmab used technology licensed from Medarex to generate the CD20 antibody
forming part of epcoritamab. Epcoritamab-bysp, marketed as EPKINLY, is the first U.S. FDA approved
bispecific for the treatment of adults with relapsed or refractory DLBCL, NOS, including DLBCL arising
from indolent lymphoma, and high-grade B‑cell lymphoma, after two or more lines of systemic therapy. In
2020, Genmab entered into a collaboration agreement with AbbVie to jointly develop and commercialize
epcoritamab. The companies share commercial responsibilities in the U.S. and pending approval, will
share commercial responsibilities in Japan, with AbbVie responsible for further global commercialization.
Genmab will record sales in the U.S. and Japan and receive tiered royalties on remaining global sales
outside of these territories. The companies have a broad clinical development program for epcoritamab
including three ongoing Phase 3 trials and additional trials in planning.
Please consult the U.S. Prescribing Information
for EPKINLY for the labeled indication and safety
information, including the boxed warning.
Second Quarter 2023 Updates
• June: Genmab and AbbVie announced topline results from the FL cohort of the Phase 1/2
EPCORE NHL-1 clinical trial evaluating epcoritamab in patients with relapsed/refractory FL who
received at least two prior lines of systemic therapy. 70.3% of patients were double refractory to
an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody and an alkylating agent. Based on the topline results, the
companies will engage with global regulatory authorities to determine next steps. The topline
results from this cohort showed an overall response rate (ORR) of 82% as confirmed by an
independent review committee (IRC), which exceeded the protocol prespecified threshold for
efficacy. The observed median duration of response (DOR) was not reached. No new safety
signals were observed with epcoritamab in this study at the time of analysis. The most common
treatment-emergent adverse event was cytokine release syndrome (CRS) with 66.4% (1.6%
grade >2). Aligned with the U.S. FDA Project Optimus, the optimization part of the trial is
continuing to evaluate alternative step-up dosing regimens to mitigate the risk of CRS; preliminary
data on the initial patients enrolled indicate a clinically meaningful improvement in CRS rate. The
results from this cohort, along with the results from the optimization part of the trial, will be
submitted for presentation at an upcoming medical congress.
• June: Epcoritamab was added to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network
®
(NCCN
®
) Clinical
Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines
®
) for “B-cell Lymphomas” (Version 4.2023)
for third-line and subsequent therapy for patients with DLBCL, including patients with disease
progression after transplant or chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-T) cell therapy and as a Category
2A, preferred regimen for patients with histologic transformation of indolent lymphomas to DLBCL
and no intention to proceed to transplant, including patients with disease progression after
transplant or CAR-T cell therapy.
• June: Multiple data presentations were featured at the 2023 American Society of Clinical
Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting and the 2023 European Hematology Association (EHA)
Congress. These included an oral presentation at both congresses on data from the Phase 1/2
EPCORE NHL-2 (NCT04663347) trial of epcoritamab in combination with rituximab and
lenalidomide for patients with high-risk FL and poster presentations highlighting epcoritamab in
lymphoma across multiple lines of therapy and histologies.
• May: The U.S. FDA granted accelerated approval for EPKINLY as noted above.

Net sales of DARZALEX by Janssen were USD 4,695 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to
USD 3,842 million in the first six months of 2022. The increase of USD 853 million, or 22%, was driven by
share gains in all regions. Royalty revenue on net sales of DARZALEX
was DKK 4,904 million in the first
six months of 2023 compared to DKK 4,024 million in the first six months of 2022, an increase of DKK
880 million. The percentage increase in royalties of 22% is consistent with the percentage increase in the
underlying net sales primarily due to a higher effective royalty rate and a higher average exchange rate
between the USD and DKK for the first six months of 2023, offset by the increase in Genmab’s Halozyme
royalty deductions in connection with the increase in SC product net sales and other foreign exchange
impacts. Under our license agreement with Janssen for DARZALEX, for purposes of calculating royalties
due to Genmab, net sales for non-U.S. denominated currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at a specific
annual Currency Hedge Rate. This contractual agreement is the driver for the other foreign exchange rate
impacts discussed above.
Net sales of Kesimpta by Novartis were USD 873 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to USD
434 million in the first six months of 2022. The increase of USD 439 million, or 101%, was primarily due to
sales growth across all regions driven by increased demand and strong access. Royalty revenue on net
sales of Kesimpta was DKK 600 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to DKK 296 million in the
first six months of 2022, an increase of DKK 304 million, or 103%.
Royalty revenue on estimated net sales of TEPEZZA was DKK 336 million in the first six months of 2023
compared to DKK 390 million in the first six months of 2022, a decrease of DKK 54 million, or 14%.

Janssen was granted approval for TECVAYLI for the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma
during the third quarter of 2022 in Europe and in the fourth quarter of 2022 in the U.S. Royalties were not
material for the first six months of 2023.
Royalty revenue fluctuations from period to period are driven by the level of product net sales, foreign
currency exchange rate movements and more specifically to DARZALEX, the contractual arrangement
related to annual Currency Hedge Rate, and Genmab’s share of Janssen’s royalty payments to Halozyme
in connection with SC product net sales.
Reimbursement Revenue
Reimbursement revenue amounted to DKK 483 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to DKK
287 million in the first six months of 2022. The increase of DKK 196 million, or 68%, was primarily driven
by higher activities under our collaboration agreements with BioNTech for DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB and
DuoBody-PD-L1x4-1BB.
Milestone Revenue
Milestone revenue was DKK 455 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to DKK 176 million in
the first six months of 2022, an increase of DKK 279 million, or 159%, primarily driven by an AbbVie
milestone achieved during the second quarter of 2023 related to the first commercial sale of EPKINLY in
the United States.
Milestone revenue may fluctuate significantly from period to period due to both the timing of
achievements and the varying amount of each individual milestone under our license and collaboration
agreements.
Collaboration Revenue
Collaboration revenue was DKK 140 million for the first six months of 2023 compared to DKK 91 million
for the first six months of 2022, an increase of DKK 49 million, or 54%, driven by the increase in net sales
of TIVDAK.
Net Product Sales
Following the approval of EPKINLY on May 19, 2023, Genmab recognized net product sales of DKK 39
million through June 30, 2023. As EPKINLY is Genmab’s first commercialized product for which Genmab
is recording net product sales, there were no net product sales recognized during the first six months of
2022.
Refer to Financial Statement Note 2 in this interim report for further details about revenue.
Key Developments to Revenue – Second Quarter of 2023
Genmab’s revenue was DKK 4,198 million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to DKK 3,162 million
for the second quarter of 2022. The increase of DKK 1,036 million, or 33%, was primarily driven by higher
DARZALEX and Kesimpta royalties achieved under our collaborations with Janssen and Novartis,
respectively, and a milestone achieved under our collaboration with AbbVie for the first commercial sale
of EPKINLY in the United States.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses amounted to DKK 3,594 million in the first six months of 2023
compared to DKK 2,435 million in the first six months of 2022. The increase of DKK 1,159 million, or 48%,

Interest Income
Interest income was DKK 401 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to DKK 87 million in the
first six months of 2022. The increase of DKK 314 million was driven by higher effective interest rates in
the U.S., Europe and Denmark, and higher cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities.
Foreign Exchange Rate Gains and Losses
Foreign exchange rate loss, net was DKK 439 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to foreign
exchange rate gain, net of DKK 1,792 million in the first six months of 2022. The USD weakened against
the DKK in the first six months of 2023, negatively impacting our USD denominated securities and cash
holdings. The USD strengthened against the DKK in the first six months of 2022, positively impacting our
USD denominated securities and cash holdings.

Marketable Securities Gains and Losses
Gain on marketable securities, net was DKK 89 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to loss on
marketable securities, net of DKK 315 million in the first six months of 2022. The increase of DKK 404
million was primarily driven by interest rate outlooks for the U.S. and Europe.
Other Investments
Gain on other investments, net was DKK 37 million in the first six months of 2023 compared to loss on
other investments, net of DKK 214 million in the first six months of 2022. The change was primarily due to
the significant decrease in fair value of Genmab’s investment in common shares of CureVac impacting
the first six months of 2022.
Refer to Financial Statement Note 4 in this interim report for further details about the net financial items.

Key Developments to Net Financial Items – Second Quarter of 2023
No significant key developments other than the items described above.
Corporate Tax
Corporate tax expense for the first six months of 2023 was DKK 426 million compared to DKK 745 million
for the first six months of 2022. The decrease in corporate tax expense is primarily the result of Genmab’s
lower net profit before tax and a decrease in the estimated annual effective tax rate in the first six months
of 2023 to 21.2% from 24.0% in the first six months of 2022. The decrease in Genmab’s effective tax rate
was mainly driven by the ability to offset current taxable income through the deduction of research and
development costs in the Netherlands and utilization of U.S. net operating loss carryforwards.
Key Developments to Corporate Tax – Second Quarter of 2023
No significant key developments other than the items described above.
Net Profit
Net profit for the first six months of 2023 was DKK 1,583 million compared to DKK 2,356 million in the first
six months of 2022. Net profit for the second quarter of 2023 was DKK 1,357 million compared to DKK
1,891 million in the second quarter of 2022. The decrease was driven by the items described above.

Net cash provided by operating activities is primarily related to our operating profit, changes in operating
assets and liabilities, reversal of net financial items, and adjustments related to non-cash transactions.
Cash provided by operating activities increased compared to the first six months of 2022 primarily driven
by significant AbbVie milestones achieved with related cash received during the first six months of 2023
and cash received for DARZALEX royalties as a result of increasing net sales.
Net cash (used in) investing activities primarily reflects differences between the proceeds received from
the sale and maturity of our investments and amounts invested, and the cash paid for investments in
tangible and intangible assets. The increase in net cash (used in) investing activities is primarily driven by
purchases of marketable securities exceeding sales and maturities to a greater extent during the first six
months of 2023 compared to the first six months of 2022.

Net cash (used in) financing activities is primarily related to the purchase of treasury shares, exercise of
warrants, lease payments, and payment of withholding taxes on behalf of employees on net settled
Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). The increase in cash used in financing activities between the periods is
primarily driven by cash payments for the purchase of treasury shares of DKK 564 million in the first six
months of 2023 compared to DKK 211 million for the first six months of 2022.
Genmab’s USD denominated cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities represented 88% of
Genmab’s total cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of June 30, 2023 compared to
86% as of December 31, 2022.
Cash and cash equivalents included short-term marketable securities of DKK 634 million as of June 30,
2023 compared to DKK 594 million as of December 31, 2022. In accordance with our accounting policy,
securities purchased with a maturity of less than ninety days at the date of acquisition are classified as
cash and cash equivalents. Refer to Financial Statement Note 3 in this interim report for further details
about our marketable securities.
Key Developments to Cash Flows – Second Quarter of 2023
No significant key developments other than the items described above.
Balance Sheet
As of June 30, 2023, total assets were DKK 31,978 million compared to DKK 30,278 million on December
31, 2022. As of June 30, 2023, assets were mainly comprised of marketable securities of DKK 14,010
million, cash and cash equivalents of DKK 10,874 million and current receivables of DKK 4,690 million.
The current receivables consist primarily of amounts related to royalties and milestones from our
collaboration agreements.
As of June 30, 2023, total liabilities were DKK 3,223 million compared to DKK 2,837 million on December
31, 2022. The increase in total liabilities of DKK 386 million, or 14%, was primarily driven by the increase
in lease liabilities for our new headquarters in Denmark that commenced during the first half of 2023 and
accruals related to the expansion of our product pipeline.
Shareholders’ equity as of June 30, 2023 was DKK 28,755 million compared to DKK 27,441 million on
December 31, 2022. The increase of DKK 1,314 million, or 5%, was primarily driven by Genmab’s net
profit for the period, partly offset by the purchase of treasury shares. Genmab’s equity ratio was 90% as
of June 30, 2023 compared to 91% as of December 31, 2022.
Team Members
As of June 30, 2023, the total number of team members was 2,015 compared to 1,445 as of June 30,
2022. The increase was primarily driven by the expansion and acceleration of our pipeline, as well as the
investment in the expansion of Genmab’s commercialization capabilities, including support for the launch
of EPKINLY in the U.S. during the second quarter of 2023 and broader organizational capabilities.

Legal Matters – Janssen Binding Arbitrations
In September 2020, Genmab commenced binding arbitration of two matters arising under its license
agreement with Janssen relating to daratumumab. In April 2022, the arbitral tribunal issued an award in
the binding arbitration of the two matters in favor of Janssen. Genmab did not seek a review of the award,
and the award is now final.
On June 9, 2022, Genmab announced the commencement of a second arbitration under the
daratumumab license agreement with Janssen with claims for milestone payments for daratumumab SC
of USD 405 million and a separate 13-year royalty term for daratumumab SC on a country-by-country
basis, from the date of the first commercial sale of daratumumab SC in each such country. This second
arbitration followed from the award in the prior arbitration, where the tribunal ruled in favor of Janssen on
the question as to whether Genmab is required to share in Janssen’s royalty payments to Halozyme for
its technology used in the daratumumab SC product. The tribunal based its ruling on the finding that
DARZALEX FASPRO constitutes a new licensed product under the license agreement.
On April 21, 2023, the arbitral tribunal dismissed Genmab’s claims regarding the second arbitration, on
the basis that these claims should have been brought in the first arbitration. One arbitrator dissented.
Genmab has filed a request for review of the award. See Company Announcement nos. 24 and 25.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
Accounting Policies
These interim statements of the Genmab Group (Genmab or the Company) have been prepared in
accordance with IAS 34 as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and in
accordance with IAS 34 as endorsed by the EU and additional Danish disclosure requirements for interim
reports of listed companies. The interim report has not been reviewed or audited by Genmab’s external
auditors.
Except as described below, the interim report has been prepared using the same accounting policies as
outlined in Section 1 – Basis of Presentation in the financial statements in the Genmab 2022 Annual
Report (Annual Report). A number of new or amended standards became applicable for the current
reporting period. Genmab was not required to change its accounting policies as a result of adopting these
standards. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report.
The below accounting policies have been implemented upon Genmab receiving U.S. FDA approval on
May 19, 2023 for EPKINLY. As of June 30, 2023, product sales, cost of product sales and inventory relate
entirely to EPKINLY.
Revenue Recognition - Product Sales
Revenue is recognized when control is transferred to the customer and it is probable that Genmab will
collect the consideration to which it is entitled for transferring the products. Control of the products is
transferred at a single point in time which occurs upon delivery to the customer. The amount of sales to
be recognized is based on the consideration Genmab expects to receive in exchange for its goods. When
sales are recognized, an estimate for a variety of sales deductions is also recorded such as cash
discounts, government rebates, chargebacks, wholesaler fees, other rebates and administrative fees,
sales returns and allowances and other sales discounts. Sales deductions are recognized as a reduction
of gross product sales to arrive at net product sales, by assessing the expected value of the sales
deductions (variable consideration). Estimates are made for sales deductions.
Accounts Receivable – Product Sales
Accounts receivable arising from product sales are initially measured at transaction price and
subsequently measured at amortized cost, which generally corresponds to nominal value less expected
credit losses. Genmab utilizes a simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses and uses a
lifetime expected loss allowance for all receivables. To measure the expected credit losses, accounts
receivables have been grouped based on credit risk characteristics and the days past due.
Accounts receivable arising from product sales consists of amounts due from customers, net of customer
allowances for chargebacks, cash and other discounts and estimated credit losses. Genmab’s contracts
with customers have initial payment terms that range from 30 to 180 days.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with costs determined on a first-in, first-
out basis. Genmab assesses the recoverability of capitalized inventories during each reporting period and
will write down excess or obsolete inventories to its net realizable value in the period in which the
impairment is identified within Cost of product sales in the statements of comprehensive income.

Included in inventories are materials used in the production of clinical products, which are charged to
R&D expense when shipped to the clinical packaging site. Inventory manufactured prior to regulatory
approval of a product (prelaunch inventory) is capitalized but immediately written down to zero. The cost
of this write down is recognized in the statements of comprehensive income as research and
development expenses. Once there is a high probability of regulatory approval being obtained for the
product, the write-down is reversed, up to no more than the original cost. The reversal of the write-down
is recognized as an offset to research and development expenses in the statements of comprehensive
income.
Prior to receiving FDA approval of EPKINLY, Genmab had written down inventory costs relating to the
manufacture of EPKINLY to a net realizable value of zero. Capitalization of inventory costs associated
with certain products prior to regulatory approval of such products is only appropriate when management
considered it highly probable that pre-approval inventory costs would be recoverable through future sales
of the drug product. The determination to capitalize was based on the particular facts and circumstances
related to the expected regulatory approval of the product. The write down was recorded as R&D
expense in Genmab’s statements of comprehensive income. Upon the receipt of FDA approval for
EPKINLY during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, Genmab reversed previously recorded inventory write
downs which were not material. The reversal of previously recorded inventory write downs was based on
a number of factors existing at that time, including the existence of inventory on hand and estimated
demand, as well as expiration dating. The reversal of these inventory write downs was recorded as a
reduction to R&D expense in Genmab’s statements of comprehensive income.
Cost of Product Sales
Cost of product sales includes direct and indirect costs relating to the manufacture of inventory mainly
from third-party providers of manufacturing as well as costs related to internal resources and distribution
and logistics. Inventory amounts written down as a result of excess or obsolescence are charged to cost
of product sales.
Additionally, cost of product sales includes net profit-sharing amounts owed to collaboration partners for
the sale of commercial products when Genmab is determined to be the principal in sales to end
customers. As of June 30, 2023, the only net profit-sharing amounts owed recorded as cost of product
sales relate to sales of EPKINLY pursuant to the Collaboration Agreement with AbbVie. Refer to Note 5.6
in the Annual Report for detailed information regarding Genmab’s Collaboration Agreement with AbbVie.
Included in Selling, general and administrative expenses is Cost of product sales which were immaterial
for the second quarter of 2023.
Management Judgements and Estimates under IFRS
In preparing interim reports, certain provisions under IFRS require management to make judgements
(various accounting estimates and assumptions), which may significantly impact Genmab’s financial
statements. For a description of significant judgements and estimates, refer to Note 1.3 in the Annual
Report. Additionally, upon Genmab receiving U.S. FDA approval of EPKINLY during the quarter ended
June 30, 2023, management has determined that estimation of sales deductions related to product sales
is an area that requires significant estimation. Refer below for further information on the key accounting

Sales Deductions
Sales deductions are estimated and provided for at the time the related sales are recorded. Genmab’s
estimates related to sales deductions require significant use of estimates as not all conditions are known
at the time of sale. The estimates are based on analyses of existing contractual obligations, historical
experience, drug product analogs and payer channel mix.
Genmab considers the provisions established for sales deductions to be reasonable and appropriate
based on currently available information; however, the actual amount of deductions may differ from the
amounts estimated by management as more information becomes available. Estimates will be assessed
each period and adjusted as required based on updated information and actual experience.
Information about Geographical Areas
Genmab is managed and operated as one business unit, which is reflected in the organizational structure
and internal reporting. No separate lines of business or separate business entities have been identified
with respect to any licensed products, product candidates, product sales or geographical markets and no
segment information is currently prepared for internal reporting. Refer to Note 2.2 in the Annual Report for
further details.

DIRECTORS’ AND MANAGEMENT’S STATEMENT ON THE INTERIM REPORT
The Board of Directors and the registered members of Executive Management have today
considered and adopted the unaudited interim report of the Genmab Group for the six months
ended June 30, 2023.
The interim report is prepared in accordance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting,” as issued
by the IASB and in accordance with IAS 34 as endorsed by the EU, and additional Danish
disclosure requirements for interim reports of listed companies.
We consider the applied accounting policies to be appropriate and, in our opinion, the interim
report gives a true and fair view of the assets and liabilities, financial position, results of operation
and cash flows of the Group.
Furthermore, we consider the Management’s Review to give a true and fair account of the
development in the Group’s activities and financial affairs, results of operations and the Group’s
financial position as a whole as well as a description of the significant risks and uncertainties
which the Group faces, as further described in our 2022 Annual Report and the Form 20-F filed
with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in February 2023.
