MANAGEMENT'S REVIEW
Page | 6 ANNUAL REPORT 2024
BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
Strategy/Turnaround
Following the decline in gross profit margins over the
previous year, a short-term plan (referred to as the Plan
2023/24) was developed during 2023 covering a 1½-
year period. This plan – among others - included further
operational consolidation, additional focus on purchase
of parts and materials, additional focus on new markets,
an updated go-to-market approach, new product
launches, and organizational adjustments.
Plan 2023/24 has reached its preset targets and it will
have full effect in 2025. Glunz & Jensen has initialized its
next plan (Plan 2026) which focuses on increased
efficiencies within the company. The plan targets an
increase in efficiency by minimum 10% in 2025.
Main events in 2024:
• The inflation in Denmark and in Slovakia
continued to decrease in 2024 however the
weighted purchase of parts shows that the
inflation in the countries of sourcing remain
between 3 and 4%.
• The inflation in Denmark came to 2,0% Y-O-Y
in 2024, whereas it remained relatively higher in
Slovakia at 5,1% Y-O-Y in 2024 (source: IMF).
• Cost of capital decreased by approximately
0.5% PP on the short-term interest rates and
came to approximately 6.5%
• The supply of components and parts were
normalized during 2024.
• Our strong focus on improving the balance
sheet/working capital was successful.
Inventories were reduced from DKK 56,8 million
in 2022 to DKK 43,0 million in 2023 and DKK
37.2 million in 2024. This included an inventory
write down of DKK 3,8 million in 2024 (2023:
DKK 4,2 million).
• Our investment property, Selandia Park,
finalized upgrading of a building in 2024 on
behalf of a tenant. The building was leased in
2023 on a long-term contract. Selandia Park
entered into a fixed loan agreement to fund the
upgrading of the building. The tenant is
obligated by contract to reimburse all cost
related to the loan to Glunz & Jensen.
Offset market
Glunz & Jensen’s sales to the Offset market decreased
by 9,8% in 2024 compared to 2023. The market has seen
a slow decline over a long period due to changes in
consumer behavior driving less need for commercial
print as well as a shift from traditional to digital print
production.
Flexo market
While competition in the Flexo market remained fierce in
2024 we saw sales decreasing by 8,7% compared to
calendar year 2023.
Glunz & Jensen estimates that the global market volume
continues to grow at 1-3% annually and remains
confident that we maintain momentum in this segment
due to our professional network of partners as well as
significant value offering.
Focused development activity
Glunz & Jensen's strategic focus in recent years has
been to meet customer demands through the
development of new and competitive products, both in
Offset and in Flexo. We develop machines both for our
own brand and act as a trusted development partner for
some of the world’s largest plate manufacturers.
Selandia Park A/S
Selandia Park A/S' business objective is to invest in and
operate a property portfolio. Rental income in Selandia
Park A/S increased to DKK 11,3 million (2023: DKK 11,2
million), excluding rental income from Glunz & Jensen
A/S. Approximately 11% of the property complex was
idle by the end of 2024.
The portfolio of rental contracts is currently set to expire
from 2026 at the earliest and to 2033 at the latest.
Selandia Park A/S contributed DKK 4,5 million to profit
before tax (2023: DKK 6,0 million).
The fair value of the investment properties amounts to
DKK 144,7 million by December 31
st
, 2024 (2023: DKK
146,5 million). The value was negatively impacted
compared to 2023 due to negative fair value adjustment
of DKK 1,8 million mainly caused by higher market
expectations in 2024 on return on investments compared
to 2023.
MANAGEMENT'S REVIEW
ANNUAL REPORT 2024 Page | 7
OPTIMIZATION OF THE VALUE CHAIN
Glunz & Jensen's strategy is based on the following key
themes:
1. Leading the market for Offset prepress equipment
Offset is one of Glunz & Jensen's cornerstone business
areas with iCtP solutions and CtP processors as main
products. These develop and prepare aluminum Offset
plates for commercial printing applications such as
newspapers, inserts, magazines, books, information,
promotional material, packaging, and a variety of other
printed medias.
Our aim is to further retain our position as market leader
on the global Offset market by consolidating our variety
offering and through continuing to deliver cutting-edge
quality products with low energy consumption and
reduced environmental impact at competitive prices.
Further we will increase our footprint in regions which are
still showing notable progress for Offset products, mainly
APAC and South America.
2. Developing a leading position in the Flexo market
through customer satisfaction and the development and
launch of cost-efficient products
Glunz & Jensen is one of the largest providers of Flexo
platemaking equipment globally. In addition, we act as a
valued development and manufacturing partner for some
of the largest plate manufacturers. The Flexo market –
which mainly serves the labels and packaging industry -
develops at an estimated annual growth rate of 1-3%,
driven by underlying growth in packaging, changing
demographics, and shares gained from other printing
technologies. We expect to continue to gain market
share and dominate this segment going forward.
3. Growing the after sale-market
Glunz & Jensen's after sale-market business includes
sales of spare parts, consumables for iCtP products,
installation, repair, preventive maintenance of hardware
and software. In addition to enhanced profitability, these
activities strengthen our relationship with customers and
provide valuable feedback and dialogue with the end-
users.
Early in 2024 we launched a new training academy at our
plant in Presov, Slovakia with the objective to continue to
build technology understanding and skills with our
partners and their customers. We already see significant
benefit in bringing local capabilities to customers both in
terms of knowledge but also through readily available
support, in any local environment. A total of 5 planned
academy training sessions in 2025 are already fully
signed.
4. Improving profitability
During the last years, a significant number of steps have
been taken to further improve the profitability of Glunz &
Jensen. These include reduction of product range
(overlapping products), transfer of functions from Glunz
& Jensen A/S, Denmark to Glunz & Jensen s.r.o.,
Slovakia and discontinuation of loss-making parts of our
business and product portfolio plus a stringent focus on
cost throughout the value chain. In addition, we have
also made considerable strides to optimize our pricing
strategy.
These significant steps combined with great effort by our
staff have resulted in a significantly improved profitability,
despite the shortages of parts and electronic
components and higher-than-normal inflation.
MANAGEMENT'S REVIEW
Page | 8 ANNUAL REPORT 2024
OUTLOOK
For the fiscal year 2025, the Group revenue is expected
to come in at approximately DKK 132 million, while
operating profit (EBITDA) is expected at approximately
DKK 15 million. The profit before tax is expected at
approximately DKK 8 million. The outlook for the EBITDA
and the profit before tax is before potential adjustments
on fair value on the investment property.
Management underlines that the outlook for the fiscal
year 2025 is associated with some uncertainty as the
Company may be impacted by wars, inflation, challenges
on the supply side of parts and other events.
It is the Group’s intention to use the free cash flow to the
greatest possible benefit of its shareholders. This
includes investment in business development and
technology as well as reduction of debt.

The inflation in Denmark came to 2,0% Y-O-Y in 2024
(2023: 3,3%, whereas it remained relatively high in
Slovakia at 5,1% Y-O-Y in 2024 (2023: 10,8%).

fair value adjustment on investment properties at DKK
1,8 million (2023: DKK 0). The adjustment decreased the
profit before tax margin % by 1,3% PP from 4,8% to 3,5%.

The Parent Company
Income statement
The Parent Company's revenue, which consists of
management fees to subsidiaries, totaled DKK 6,2
million in fiscal year 2024 (2023: DKK 6,2 million).
Profit after tax in subsidiaries totaled a profit of DKK 2,0
million in fiscal 2024 (2023: a profit of DKK 1,1 million).
Regarding development in the subsidiaries please refer
to the Group income statement information on page 9.
Financial income in 2024 amounted to DKK 1,1 million
against DKK 2,2 million in 2023. The financial income
relates to interest received from subsidiaries.
The Parent Company's profit after tax totaled a profit of
DKK 2,8 million in 2024 against a profit of DKK 2,9 million
in 2023.
Balance sheet
The Parent Company's total assets amounted to DKK
106,8 million on December 31
st
, 2024 (2023: DKK 103,7
million).
Most of the assets in the Parent Company refer to the
subsidiaries as investments in subsidiaries amount to
DKK 88,7 million (2023: DKK 86,4 million) and
receivables from subsidiaries came to DKK 17,5 million
as of December 31
st

Equity came at DKK 104,5 million, corresponding to a
solvency ratio of 97,8%, compared to 97,6% the year
before. The Board of Directors recommends to the
Annual General Meeting that no dividends should be
distributed for fiscal year 2024.
Cash flow and liquidity
Cash flow from operating activities amounted to DKK 0
million in 2024 (2023: DKK 20,1 million). The DKK 20,1
million in 2023 were driven by a change in payables and
receivables from subsidiaries as the parent has granted
a DKK 20 million group contribution within the Group.
Free cash flow thus amounted to DKK 0 million in 2024
(2023: DKK 0,1 million).
Based on budgets, including expectations to the cash
flow and the development of the capital base, existing
credit facilities and related contractual and expected
maturities and conditions, the Board of Directors and the
Executive Management consider the Group's and
thereby also the Parent Company’s liquidity and capital
resources to be satisfactory.
Events after the balance sheet date
No events have occurred since December 31
st
, 2024,
which are considered to have a significant impact on the
Parent Company’s financial position.

RISK FACTORS
Glunz & Jensen Holding's risk policies and -procedures
must efficiently and securely identify, control, and reduce
the risks that may affect the Group's business base,
development, and value creation. Several commercial
and financial risk factors can have a significant impact on
the Group's future financial position, activities, and
results of operations. The Group's most important risk
factors are outlined below.
Commercial risk
Glunz & Jensen's revenue is affected by both global
economic developments and changes in industry-
specific conditions. The macroeconomic cycles generally
affect Glunz & Jensen's customers' probability of
investment and may reduce revenue and earnings.
Glunz & Jensen's order lead time are 4-16 weeks, which
is considered to be market-conform. As revenue
expectations beyond this period are based on non-
binding estimates from the Group's largest customers or
based on expectations from management Glunz &
Jensen, deviations from the expected revenue may
occur.
Glunz & Jensen markets a large part of its production to
a number of major customers with whom the Company
has a long-term customer relationship. The four largest
customers represent approximately 50% of total revenue.
One customer account for more than 20% of the Group's
revenue.
New technologies and product development
Glunz & Jensen's products are based on many years of
development for the Offset and Flexo printing. Insight
into the industry's process needs and production
technologies is crucial to the Company's ability to
maintain customer’s loyalty. Some items in Glunz &
Jensen's products are patented, but most of the
Company's sales are based on products that do not
involve patented technology.
Glunz & Jensen's goal is to be among the first to offer
products tailored to new technologies within the
Company's two product areas. This places great
demands on continual product development, enabling
the Group to market products at competitive prices in a
timely manner, which will also match customer needs.
Lack of success in this area can affect revenue and
results of operations negatively.
Glunz & Jensen's most important Offset activity is the
development and sales of CtP developers. The
continued use of CtP processors is conditional on the
development of Offset printing plates. Several large plate
manufacturers have developed printing plates that do not
require development. The process-free CtP technology
has gained ground and may affect the demand for CtP
processors negatively.
Glunz & Jensen's strategy in the Flexo area is the
continued development of technology for solvent-based,
and thermal-based prepress solutions, an area in which
the Group is currently leading the market. Automation
and adaptation to latest technologies are important
requirements to ensure continued positive development
of the Flexo area.
Competition and market conditions
Prices in Offset and Flexo equipment are under pressure.
This is largely due to vendor competition in Flexo offering
similar technologies but also in Offset owing to yet
cheaper supplies products (plates) coming into markets
from China along with low-cost processing equipment.
These products offer “good enough” quality for a short
life span.
Production and supplier risks
Maintaining high reliability of delivery and high quality is
important to maintain existing customer relationships. To
strengthen competitiveness, Glunz & Jensen has
established its main production in Slovakia. If the factory
in Slovakia is impacted by production problems or
accidents, such as fire, this may affect delivery capacity
and thus reduce the Group's earnings.
The Russia-Ukraine conflict has highlighted the need to
consider geopolitical instability when choosing suppliers.
Glunz & Jensen has strengthened its purchasing
organization to counter potential supply risks. However,
ongoing world-wide supply shortage may affect the cost
prices and the planned in-flow of parts (incl. microchips)
to Glunz & Jensen.
Risk related to property market
The risk associated with the investment properties is
primarily determined by the uncertainty of the value of
the properties involved. As such, a property market
recession could materially adversely affect the value of
the properties. Further the ability to secure that all
properties is rented out will impact the future cash flow of
Glunz & Jensen and thereby the value of the investment
properties.
MANAGEMENT'S REVIEW
Page | 14 ANNUAL REPORT 2024
Insurance risk
It is the Group's policy to hedge risks that may threaten
the Group's financial position. In addition to statutory
insurance, insurance against product liability and
operating losses has thus been taken out. Properties,
plant, and inventories are insured at replacement value
at all risk levels.
Cyber risks
The continuously evolving threat of cyber security, data
leakage and data security are a key area of focus. A
major cyberattack could result in an extended period of
down time resulting in delays to customers and additional
costs for the organization. Glunz & Jensen is focused on
IT Security and awareness. In 2024, increased cyber
awareness training and further IT security measures
across the organization have been introduced helping to
mitigate this risk.
Worldwide economic uncertainty
It became evident during 2022 and 2023 that the inflation
has been on the rise. Prices on manufacturing parts,
electricity, gas, and financing cost - and general
expectations on salaries are now higher than seen for
more than a decade. Sourcing from Eastern Europe
provides a more competitive market price for Glunz &
Jensen even the inflation from these countries have
remained at 3-4% in 2024. Glunz & Jensen is focused on
managing the challenges associated with the uncertainty.
The worldwide economic uncertainty – including the
possibility of various countries introducing significantly
higher custom fees - affects the profitability on Glunz &
Jensen and the outlook is uncertain.
Other risks
There is an ongoing consolidation in the graphic industry.
Glunz & Jensen have no active participation in the
industry consolidation; this trend will benefit Glunz &
Jensen.
For financial risks, please refer to note 27.

REPORTING ON MANAGEMENT
This statement of reporting on management is part of the
Management's review, see section 107b of the Danish
Financial Statements Act, covering the fiscal year
January 1
st
– December 31
st
, 2024. The statement
consists of three elements:
• Corporate Governance
• The composition of the governing bodies and their
functions
• Main elements of the Company’s internal control and
risk management system
Corporate Governance
Glunz & Jensen emphasizes the pursuit of good
corporate governance and continuous optimization of the
Group’s Management. The overall framework for the
management of Glunz & Jensen is based on the
Company’s Articles of Association, values, and policies
as well as current Danish and international legislation
and “Rules for Issuers of Shares” on NASDAQ OMX
Copenhagen A/S, to ensure that the Group pursues its
obligations to all shareholders, customers, employees,
and other stakeholders, as well as to support long-term
value creation.
Glunz & Jensen is governed by the Corporate
Governance Committee’s recommendations of
December 2020.
The recommendations are available at:
https://glunz-jensen.com/investors/corporate-
governance
In accordance with the recommendations, we explain on
Glunz & Jensen’s website how the Company complies
with the recommendations:
https://glunz-jensen.com/investors/corporate-
governance
The Group has decided to deviate from the
recommendations due to the size of the Company and
thus arranged differently in the following areas:
• The company publishes half-yearly reports at
NASDAQ OMX and on the company´s website. The
company publishes Q1 and Q3 announcements
commenting on the development in the company.
• Glunz & Jensen has implemented 3 of the 4
recommended Board committees. The 4
th
Board
committee (nomination committee) has not yet been
set up due to the size of the Company and the size
of the Board.
• Glunz & Jensen has no share-based incentive
schemes for the Executive Management as the
Board of Directors finds the current remuneration
sufficient.
Interaction with shareholders and other stakeholders
Glunz & Jensen’s Management continually seeks to
have a dialogue with shareholders and other
stakeholders. The company strives for a high degree of
openness and effective dissemination of information.
The dialogue with and information to shareholders and
stakeholders take place through the publication of
interim reports and other communications from the
Company, as well as meetings with investors, analysts,
and the press and at the Company’s general meeting.
Interim reports and other announcements are available
on Glunz & Jensen’s website immediately after
publication.
The company's Articles of Association contain no limits
on ownership or voting rights. If an offer is made to
acquire the Company’s shares, the Board of Directors
will – in accordance with Danish law – openly consider
and convey the offer to the shareholders, accompanied
by the Board of Directors comments.
The Glunz & Jensen Group has not entered Into
significant agreements that are affected, changed, or
expired in the event of a change of control of the
Company.
There are no agreements with the Executive
Management or employees regarding retention or
compensation in case of resignation or dismissal or
termination of a post as a result of the acquisition of the
Glunz & Jensen Group
The general meeting is Glunz & Jense’'s supreme
decision-making body, and the Board of Directors
emphasizes that shareholders should be given adequate
information about the business to be transacted at the
general meeting. Notice of general meetings is published
on the website and sent electronically to all registered
shareholders, who have registered their e-mail address
at least three weeks prior to the event.
All shareholders are entitled to attend and vote at the
Annual General Meeting. Shareholders can also provide
a power of attorney to the Board – on an item-by-item
case on the agenda. The general meeting gives
shareholders the opportunity to ask questions to the
Board of Directors and the Executive Management. The
shareholders can submit proposals that must be
discussed at the general meeting. The Articles of
Association contain no special rules regarding
amendments to the Compan’'s Articles of Association.
Thus, only the provisions of the Danish Companies Act
apply in this area.
MANAGEMENT'S REVIEW
Page | 16 ANNUAL REPORT 2024
Composition of the governing bodies and their function
Board of Directors
According to the Articles of Association, the Board of
Directors consists of three to six members elected by the
general meeting. Each year, all the members are elected
by the general meeting. Resigned members are eligible
for re-election. The Board of Directors elects a Chairman
and a Deputy Chairman from among its own number.
Further, two employee representatives are elected for a
4-year election period, which has been determined in
accordance with the Danish Companies Act.
The current Board of Directors consisted of five members
at the end of the fiscal year 2024, one of whom is an
employee representative. One employee representative
resigned during 2024. The two employee
representatives were elected in May 2021 for a four-year
period. Due to the size of the Glunz & Jensen, it is not
required for Glunz & Jensen to have employee
representatives after the annual general meeting in 2025.
In connection with the election of new Board members,
a careful assessment of required knowledge and
professional experience is made to ensure that the Board
possesses the necessary competencies. Information
about the individual Board members can be found on
page 25.
The Board at work
In accordance with the Danish Companies Act, the Board
of Directors represents Glunz & Jensen's overall
management and defines the Group's goals and
strategies as well as approves the overall budgets and
action plans. In addition, the Board of Directors in
general supervises the Group and checks that it is
managed properly and in accordance with Danish law
and the Articles of Association. The general guidelines
for the Board's work are laid down in the rules of
procedure, reviewed at least once a year and adapted to
Glunz & Jensen's needs. The rules of procedure include
procedures for Management's reporting, the Board's
working method and a description of the Chairman's
tasks and responsibilities.
The Board of Directors is notified on an ongoing basis of
the Group's performance. This takes place
systematically at meetings as well as in written and oral
reports. The Board receives a monthly report, which
includes information on financial performance and the
most important activities and transactions are presented
by the Management to the Board at monthly review
meetings.
At least five ordinary Board meetings must be held
annually with a fixed plan for the agenda of the meetings.
In addition, the Board meets whenever necessary. In
fiscal 2024, five board meetings were held.
The three Board committees (Product, Audit and
Remuneration) have conducted the following formal
number of meetings in 2024; Product committee eleven
meetings, Audit committee nine meetings and
Remuneration committee two meetings.
Risk management
In connection with the strategy review, the Board of
Directors and the Executive Management perform a
comprehensive risk assessment for the Group to identify
which issues – internal as external – may affect the
Group's business base and development.
The risk assessment focuses primarily on the
identification of business risks, and for selected risks,
action plans are identified to reduce and handle such
risks. Glunz & Jensen has decided to manage general
risks by taking out relevant insurance, such as "all-risk"
on buildings and movables, transport insurance etc. As
a main rule, financial risks are the result of commercial
activities, and the Group does not actively speculate in
financial risks.
The Board of Directors establishes policies and
frameworks for the Group's key risks and ensures
effective management of these risks. Reporting on
significant risks is included in the ongoing reporting to the
Board of Directors.
For a more detailed description of Glunz & Jensen's risks,
see the section "Risk factors".
Executive Management
The Executive Management is appointed by the Board of
Directors. The Executive Management is responsible for
the day-to-day operations of the Group and, in
accordance with guidelines and written instructions
developed by the Board of Directors, prepares action
plans and budgets that support the Company's strategy
and reports on ongoing performance developments,
risks and other essential information to the Board. The
Board of Director's delegation of responsibilities to the
Executive Management is outlined in the Board's rules of
procedure.
Evaluation of the Board of Directors and the
Executive Management
A formalized evaluation of the work of the Board of
Directors and the Executive Management is in place. The
Chairman of the Board of Directors regularly reviews the
work of the Executive Management and individual Board
members, the cooperation of the Board of Directors, the
Board of Directors' working methods and the cooperation
between the Board of Directors, and the Executive
Management. Based on these assessments, the Board
of Directors' and the Executive Management's work is
adjusted on a regular basis.
MANAGEMENT'S REVIEW
ANNUAL REPORT 2024 Page | 17
Remuneration to the Board of Directors and the
Executive Management
Glunz & Jensen seeks to ensure that members of the

governance
Incentive programs
Glunz & Jensen continually seeks to establish incentive
programs that support its shareholders value creation.
The incentive programs for the Executive Management
and key employees includes a bonus scheme. The
results in 2024 led provisions of DKK 0 related to the
bonus schemes.
The main elements of the Company's internal control
and risk management system
Risk assessment in connection with the financial
reporting process
The Board of Directors and the Executive Management
have overall responsibility for the Group's risk
management and internal control in connection with the
financial reporting process, e.g., responsibility for
ensuring compliance with relevant legislation and other
regulations in relation to the financial reporting.
The Group's internal control and risk management
systems should improve the probability of reporting
without significant errors, omissions, and irregularities
and, moreover, should ensure that the financial
statements are presented in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as
approved by the EU and other accounting regulations
applicable to Danish listed companies.
The Group's internal control and risk management
systems in connection with the financial reporting include:
Control environment
The Board of Directors is responsible for identifying the
Group's most significant risks and the adequacy of
internal controls in connection with the presentation of
the financial statements. The Executive Management is
responsible for the operational organization and daily
execution of an effective control environment, e.g., for
ensuring compliance with relevant legislation in
connection with the presentation of the financial
statements. The Executive Management reports to the
Board of Directors on all relevant matters and
assessments.
The operational management includes an appropriate
organizational structure, written procedures for essential
processes, accounting instructions for subsidiaries,
authorization and certification rules, segregation of
duties, consolidation procedures, check and
documentation lists and IT security. The Executive
Management regularly assesses the adequacy of the
control environment, including the adequacy of
resources and competencies. Glunz & Jensen is
preparing a migration to a new ERP system during 2025
which is expected to be in place by 2026.
Risk assessment and risk management
The Board of Directors and the Executive Management
continually consider risks that are of importance to the
Group's financial reporting, based on a concrete
assessment of the significance and probability of each
individual risk. The risk assessment focuses on
significant financial items and involves an assessment of
the immediate risk associated with each item and the
critical processes that form the individual financial
statements.
Risk assessments and risk management are included as
part of the Group's strategy plan.
Control activities
The Group's control activities are organized taking into
account the overall objective of reducing the risk of
material misstatements, deficiencies or irregularities to
an acceptable and low level, so that the consolidated
financial statements and the financial statements are
correct. Control activities are performed at management
and operational level, and checks are performed
manually and systematically.
MANAGEMENT'S REVIEW
Page | 18 ANNUAL REPORT 2024
Control activities include the following essential elements:
• The Board of directors reviews and approves the
budget presented by the Executive Management for
the coming year. The budget includes operations,
balance sheet, liquidity, and investments.
• The Board receives monthly income, balance and
liquidity accounts with budget follow-up, key figures,
and comments on significant developments and/or
deviations. The reporting also includes an update
from area managers regarding actual sales
(customers and products), order status,
expectations as to the future, product development,
competitors etc. Subsidiaries submit monthly
accounts with comments on developments. The
reporting is used as a basis in the group reporting to
the Board of Directors.
• In connection with the year-end, a reporting package
is prepared for the subsidiaries with a view to
meeting disclosure requirements, including
disclosure requirements under IFRS.
• The Parent Company's finance department is
responsible for managing the monitoring and
controlling of financial reports from subsidiaries, with
active participation of local financial controllers.
Regular visits are made to subsidiaries.
Management in subsidiaries liaises with the external
auditor. The Executive Management is informed of
matters identified during the audit of subsidiaries.
Before the financial statements are presented, the
Board of Directors and the Executive Management
discuss critical accounting practices and estimates
as well as other matters of major importance to the
presentation of the financial statements.
Monitoring
The Board of Directors and the Executive Management
annually assess the adequacy of the Group's risk
management and control systems in the context of the
year-end process, including how the Group is protected
against fraud and accounting irregularities. The
assessment is based on a goal of efficiency and
accountability, and focus is thus primarily on significant
matters.
Audit
The external auditor is elected annually by the Annual
General Meeting. Prior to the election, the Board of
Directors assesses the auditor's independence and
competences etc. Audit tender process is performed
when required by law or more frequently if the Board of
Directors decides it to be appropriate.
The scope for the auditor's work – including fee, audit-
related tasks, and non-audit related tasks – are
stipulated in an agreement.
Members of the Board of Directors receive the external
auditor's audit report concerning the auditor's review of
the annual report. The Board of Directors reviews the
audit report and the annual report at a meeting with the
external auditor, and the auditor's observations and
significant findings arising from the audit are discussed.
In addition, the significant accounting policies and audit
assessments are reviewed. The audit committee and the
auditor also conduct an annual meeting to approve the
audit plan for and the scope for the annual report.
MANAGEMENT'S REVIEW
ANNUAL REPORT 2024 Page | 19
STATEMENT ON CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILTY
Social responsibility (CSR)
A statutory CSR statement, according to section 99a of
the Danish Financial Statements Act, is part of the
Management's review. We adopt social co-responsibility
in the local areas where the Group is located. The Group
wishes to promote a working culture throughout the
organization that ensures a sensible and appropriate
balance between financial, social, and environmental
development. In this regard, it is crucial for the CSR work
that Glunz & Jensen's production strategy and value
chain management is based to a large extent on an
outsourcing model. Virtually all manufacturing of parts
takes place with a large number of subcontractors, after
which Glunz & Jensen is responsible for product
assembly and distribution. Subcontractors are selected
at the starting point of our ISO 9001 procedures. This
ensures that subcontractors meet our requirements.
In this section, the Glunz & Jensen Group provides a
report on intended social responsibility, our policies,
actions taken as well as results achieved in 2024. We
have performed a risk assessment and have not
identified risks within the areas of climate, environment,
social and anticorruption.
Glunz & Jensen strives to operate its business in a
responsible manner and wants to comply with the
legislation in all the countries where operations are
conducted. Furthermore, compliance with Human Rights
and consideration for the environment are considerable
focus areas for the Group.
Glunz & Jensen's work with corporate social
responsibility is based on value creation and risk
management.
Glunz & Jensen has chosen to focus its work on social
responsibility within five areas: environment, anti-
corruption, human rights, working environment, and
equality.
As part of the Prepress industry, Glunz & Jensen places
an ongoing fundamental focus on reducing the use of
chemical products and helping reduce the number of
production processes that are environmentally harmful
and energy intensive.
The Group wishes – to the extent possible and if it is
financially sound – to help increase the number of young
people who get a business-related education.
The Group supports the staff associations and company
sports associations, which aim to strengthen collegial
cohesion through the organization of various activities
that support employee well-being, social relations, and
exercise.
The Group has several initiatives which include
economic support for charitable purposes that naturally
belong to CSR. Thus, the Group assumes social
responsibility in some areas and works to comply with
the ethical business practices expressed by CSR
activities.
The policies below have been approved by the Board of
Directors.
For a description of Glunz & Jensen's business model
please see pages 6 to 8 in the annual report.
Data ethics
In accordance with the regulations, we communicate on
our data ethical policies on Glunz & Jensen’s website:
https://glunz-jensen.com/investors/corporate-
governance
The processing of personal data is not a critical part of
and neither closely linked to the companies’ business
activities. As a B2B company with no transactions with
private customers, the company only processes
personal data in respect of customers and suppliers to a
very limited extent – and only for customer/supplier
administration purposes. The processing of personal
data mainly relates to the internal activities involving
employees' personal data for HR administration
purposes.
Climate and environment
Policy
Glunz & Jensen seeks to reduce its impact on the climate
and environment by reducing energy consumption year
by year. The Group is a know-how and engineering
company with production of key components. The
production mainly consists of assembling and testing
and does not include energy-demanding or polluting
processes. All surface treatment processes are
outsourced to sub-suppliers. A part of Glunz & Jensen 's
supplier and customer "Code of Conduct" addresses
impact on the climate and environment. See under
Human rights for more information about the supplier and
customer "Code of Conduct".

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the shareholders of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S
Report on the audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements and Parent Company Financial Statements
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements and the Parent Company financial statements give a true and fair
view of the Group's and the Parent Company's assets, liabilities and financial position at December 31
st
, 2024 and of the
results of the Group's and Parent Company's operations and cash flows for the financial year January 1
st
, 2024 – December
31
st
, 2024 in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU and additional requirements in the
Danish Financial Statements Act.
Our opinion is consistent with our long-form audit report to the Board or Directors and the Audit Committee.

year January 1
st
– December 31
st
, 2024, comprise the income statement, statement of comprehensive income, balance

policies, for the Group as well as for the Parent Company (the financial statements). The financial statements are prepared
in accordance with the IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU and additional requirements in the Danish
Financial Statements Act.
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) and the additional ethical requirements applicable
in Denmark, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA
Code.
We declare, to the best of our knowledge and belief, that we have not provided any prohibited non-audit services, as
referred to in Article 5(1) of the Regulation (EU) 537/2014 and that we remained independent in conducting the audit.
We were appointed auditors of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S for the first time on June 30
th
, 2021, for the financial year
2021/22. We have been re-appointed by resolutions passed by the annual general meeting for a total uninterrupted
engagement period of 4 years up to and including the financial year ending December 31
st
, 2024.
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 the 2024 financial year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial
statements as a whole, and in the forming of our opinion thereon. We do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Page | 30 ANNUAL REPORT 2024
Key audit matters
How our audit addressed the key audit matter
• Valuation of investment property
For the purpose of our audit, the procedures we
carried out included the following:
• The audit procedures we performed consist,
among other things, of an assessment of the
applied valuation method used in the
determination of fair value performed by
Management. We have assessed whether the
method used by Management has been applied
consistently. We have tested the key
assumptions used in the determination of fair
value performed by Management by comparing
the capitalization rate used to available industry
data for similar investment properties. In
addition, we have assessed the data used by
Management in determination of future cash
flows and agreed expected rental income and
operating expenditure to underlying tenant
contracts, budgets and historical property
expenditure.
• We also assessed the appropriateness of the
disclosures and sensitivities made relating to
investment properties compared to applicable
financial reporting standards.
Statement on the Management's review
Management is responsible for the Management's review.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the Management's review, and we do not express any form of
assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the Management's review and, in doing
so, consider whether the Management's review is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our knowledge
obtained during the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
Moreover, it is our responsibility to consider whether the Management's review provides the information required by
relevant law and regulations.
Based on the work we have performed; we conclude that the Management's review is in accordance with the financial
statements and has been prepared in accordance with relevant law and regulations. We did not identify any material
misstatement of the Management's review.
Management's responsibilities for the financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the
IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU and additional requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act
and for such internal control that 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.
ANNUAL REPORT 2024 Page | 31
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance as to 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
may 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 conducted in accordance with ISAs and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark, we exercise
professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism 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 in preparing the
financial statements 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 and the Parent Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and contents 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
and the Parent Company 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 to 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 therefore the key audit matters. We describe
these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in
extremely rare circumstances, we determined that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse
consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
Report on compliance with the ESEF Regulation
As part of our audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements and Parent Company Financial Statements of Glunz & Jensen
Holding A/S we performed procedures to express an opinion on whether the annual report of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S
for the financial year January 1
st
, 2024 – December 31
st
, 2024 with the file name 549300S5UFTTWALAFE19-2024-12-31-
0-en is prepared, in all material respects, in compliance with the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/815 on the
Page | 32 ANNUAL REPORT 2024
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.
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 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;
• 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 Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S for the financial year January 1

NOTES
1.
Significant accounting estimates and judgements
Estimates and judgements:
In applying the Group’s and the Parent Company’s accounting policies, Management is required to make judgments,
estimates and assumptions concerning the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that cannot be immediately inferred
from other sources. The judgments, estimates and assumptions made are based on historical experience and other
relevant factors which Management considers reasonable under the circumstances, but which are inherently uncertain
and unpredictable. Estimates and underlying assumptions are assessed on an ongoing basis. Changes to accounting
estimates are recognized in the reference period in which the change occurs and in future reference periods if the change
affects both the period in which the change occurs and subsequent reference periods.
Capital structure and financing:
The Group's primary loan agreement with Nordea is subject is subject to three covenants, which the Group must observe
in order to maintain the financing. The financial covenants are related to the financial ratio "solvency", the agreed level of
EBITDA% (EBITDA vs. revenue), and debt leverage (interest bearing debt vs. EBITDA). During 2024 Glunz & Jensen did
breach the agreed level of EBITDA% and the debt leverage covenant, however Nordea accepted the breach. The budget
for 2025 was presented to and viewed satisfactory by Nordea and a letter of cooperation for 2025 was received by Glunz
& Jensen in January 2025. On this basis, Management considers the Group’s funding for 2025 sufficient to be able to
continue meeting its payment obligations and its obligations under the financing covenants during 2025.
Investment properties:
For investment properties, a valuation methodology based on a discounted cash flow (DCF) model is used every year.
The average yield in 2024 is 7,2% (2023: 6,9%). Including inflation, the average discount rate in 2024 is 9,7% (2023:
9,4%). The yearly rent adjustment of 2,5% was used for all years, the maintenance per m
2
in DKK was 42 and the DCF
model include occupancy rate of 89% in 2025 and 2026 and 100% after 2026, Calculated terminal cash flow is based on
an average yield of 7,2%. Year 1-15 is based on an average discount rate of 9,7%.
Key assumption in the fair value calculation is the yield and discount rate. Sensitivity analysis of the fair value calculation
indicates that a change in the discount rate +/- 0,5% will lead to a fair value adjustment of approximately DKK 9 million.
The yield rate is based on available information from commercial real estate agents and the Executive Management’s
assessments. The fair values of the properties are however not based on valuations performed by an independent external
valuer. Please see note 14 concerning investment properties.
Estimated level of expected losses on trade receivables:
Write-downs for expected losses on receivables from sales are recognized immediately in the income statement at the
same time as the receivable based on a simplified expected credit loss model. When estimating the level of receivables
that in the future is expected not to be collected Management take the following information into account: historical losses
on receivables, ageing of the receivables, access to payment securities and possibilities to off-set assets against claims.
When doing the assessment, we also evaluate the global financial situation and political environments that could impact
the recoverability.
Inventories:
In connection with the preparation of the annual report and during the year, Management regularly assesses the need for
writing down the inventory value regarding phase-out of materials, consumables, and/or finished machines. The need for
write-downs is estimated based on analysis in which last year’s revenue is compared to the present composition of the
inventories. The percentage of the write-down increase depends on the number of years of revenue the inventory is
estimated to cover. If Management estimates that future revenue differs significantly compared to historical sales, e.g.,
due to planned phase-outs, this is taken into consideration in the impairment test. Normally, inventory write-downs are
made when Management estimates that the product portfolio covers more than two years’ future expected revenue. Most
of the uncertainties in the impairment test relate to estimating the future revenue, the effect of phase-outs and the precision
of the write-down percentages used.
ANNUAL REPORT 2024 Page | 39
1.
Significant accounting estimates and judgements (continued)
Deferred tax assets:
When measuring deferred tax assets, Management considers if future earnings, based on budget and operating plans,
will make it possible to utilize the temporary differences between the carrying amount and the tax base of assets and
liabilities or tax loss-carry forwards. See note 17, which states that tax loss-carry forward are expected to be utilized by
2029 at the latest.
Non-current assets:
The carrying amounts of non-current assets are reviewed annually to determine whether there is any evidence of
impairment. If any such evidence exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. The recoverable amount of an
asset is the higher of its fair value less expected disposal costs and its value in use. The value in use is determined as
the present value of expected future cash flows from the asset or the cash-generating unit to which the assets belong.
Completed development projects are tested at least annually for impairment. The impairment test is based on flexo
revenue growth averaging about 1-3% per year during a 5-year period. The Group’s completed development projects on
December 31
st
, 2024, are amortized over 3 years. The uncertainties in the impairment test relate to estimated future sales
and product life.
Please see note 11 concerning intangible assets.
Accounting policies:
In applying the Group’s and the Parent Company’s accounting policies, Management is required to make other judgments
not relating to estimates which might significantly affect amounts recognized in the annual report.
Management has made such judgments concerning:
Segments:
The Glunz & Jensen Group’s main activities lie within the Prepress market. Product area Flexo and Product area Offset,
are both part of the Prepress market. All products and services are connected to setters and printing equipment. In addition
to equipment, Glunz & Jensen sells installation of the equipment, service, and spare parts. At the production facility in
Slovakia, Glunz & Jensen manufactures both Flexo and Offset equipment. Glunz & Jensen markets Flexo and Offset
through a comprehensive and worldwide network of private label partners, distributors, and dealers. Flexo and Offset
equipment are sold on a standalone basis or in conjunction with other product types. Glunz & Jensen’s service
organization provides service for both Flexo and Offset equipment. Glunz & Jensen sees an overlap between customers
within Flexo and Offset. Consequently, Glunz & Jensen has concluded that Offset and Flexo belong to the same segment.
The management of Glunz & Jensen and the internal financial reporting is organized accordingly.
Thus Glunz & Jensen Group account can be divided into two segments: prepress market and investment properties,
Selandia Park.
Glunz & Jensen presents entity-wide information regarding geographical distribution of revenue and assets. However,
Glunz & Jensen’s financial reporting does not include information regarding geographical markets beyond those reflected

Contingent liabilities and collateral
Group:
The shares in Glunz & Jensen A/S and Selandia Park A/S are pledged as security towards the main bank, Nordea. The
Group has provided a company charge of DKK 35.000 thousand secured upon the Company’s inventories, goodwill,
domain names and rights, fixtures, and operating equipment as well as unsecured claims relating to the sale of goods
and services at a carrying amount of DKK 50.034 thousand.
Please refer to note 12, Property, plant, and equipment and 14 Investment properties regarding collateral mortgage.
Parent Company:
The shares in Glunz & Jensen A/S and Selandia Park A/S are pledged as security towards the main bank, Nordea. The
Group has provided a company charge of DKK 35.000 thousand secured upon the Company’s inventories, goodwill,
domain names and rights, fixtures, and operating equipment as well as unsecured claims relating to the sale of goods
and services at a carrying amount of DKK 50.034 thousand.
The Parent Company acts as management company for the jointly taxed Danish companies. Pursuant to the provisions
of the Danish Corporation Tax Act, the Parent Company is thus liable to withhold tax at source on interest, royalties, and
dividend for the jointly taxed companies for contingent liabilities and to withhold income taxes. The Parent Company
recognized jointly tax receivables in the balance sheet amounting to DKK 0 on December 31
st
, 2024 (December 31
st
,
2023: DKK 0). The Parent Company's liability regarding joint tax may be impacted by future corrections of the taxable
income. The companies in the joint taxation arrangement are not subject to withholding tax on dividends, interest, or
royalties.
27.
Financial risks and financial instruments
Risk management policy:
As a result of its operating, investing, and financing activities, the Group is exposed to various financial risks, including
market risks, credit risks and liquidity risks. It is the Group’s policy not to speculate actively in financial risks. The Group’s
financial risk management is thus aimed exclusively at managing the financial risks that are a direct consequence of the
Group’s operating, investing, and financing activities.
Currency risk:
The Group’s currency risk consists of transaction risks and currency translation risks.
The main part of the Group's sales is invoiced in EUR and USD. In 2024, approx. 80% of sales were invoiced in EUR and
approx. 11% in USD (2023: 79% in EUR and 13% in USD).
The main part of the Group's expenses is paid in EUR 66%, DKK 24% and USD 9%. In 2024, expenses paid in DKK,
USD and EUR amounted to 99% of total expenses (2023: 98%). As Management considers the EUR/DKK exchange rate
to be fixed, the Group's exposure to currency risks is limited.
As part of the Group’s currency policy, Glunz & Jensen seeks only to reduce the impact of exchange rate fluctuations
(EUR exempted) on its profits and financial position via financial instruments when the risk is assessed as unacceptable.
As in 2023, future currency transactions are currently not hedged. Due to the foreign subsidiaries, Glunz & Jensen is
exposed to currency translation risks insofar as part of the Group’s earnings and net assets derive from these foreign
subsidiaries and, therefore, are translated and included in the consolidated financial statements, which are presented in
DKK.
Page | 54 ANNUAL REPORT 2024
27.
Financial risks and financial instruments (continued)
An increase in the USD rate of 10% is estimated, all else being equal, to affect the Group's operating profit by approx.
DKK 91 thousand (2023: DKK 27 thousand). The estimate is based on the level of USD Profit/(loss) transactions in 2024.
Based on the Group’s USD exposure at the balance sheet date, the impact of a hypothetical fluctuation of 10% of the
USD/DKK exchange rate on the profit/(loss) for the year and consolidated equity amounts to DKK 175 thousand regarding
cash and receivables (2023: DKK 49 thousand) and DKK 90 thousand regarding financial liabilities (2023: DKK 90
thousand), respectively.
Interest rate risk:
As a result of its investing and financing activities, the Group is exposed to interest rate fluctuations. Net interest-bearing
debt on December 31
st
, 2024, amounted to DKK 70.500 thousand (2023: DKK 73.400 thousand).
During 2023 Selandia entered a DKK 10.034 thousand floating-rate 10-year DKK-based bond loan. Further Selandia
converted the existing DKK-based bond loan of DKK 50.810 thousand to a new loan in the same value however repayment
period was prolonged to 20 years and the interest rate fixed at 6%. During 2024 Selandia entered a DKK 4.300 thousand
fixed-rate 10-year and 3-month DKK-based bond loan. All other interest-bearing debt earns interest at floating rates.
A 1 percentage point change in the general interest rate level relative to the balance sheet date is estimated to affect the
Group's profit/(loss) for the year by DKK 148 thousand and consolidated equity by DKK 148 thousand based on financial
commitments at December 31
st
, 2024 (2023: an effect on the profit/(loss) for the year of DKK 194 thousand and
consolidated equity of DKK 194 thousand). The estimate does not include adjustments concerning repayment and
borrowing.
Credit risk:
The Group may realize losses if trade and other receivables are not settled. The majority of the Group’s goods and
services are sold to large companies with which Glunz & Jensen has long-term relationship. The four largest customers
account for approx. 49,8% of total revenue. The Group normally requires prepayment from new customers.
Based on the Group's internal credit procedures, the credit risk associated with the various trade receivables mainly
relates to the customer's geographical location. Trade receivables deemed to have a high credit quality (low risk) are
estimated to relate to Western Europe and North America. Conversely, trade receivables relating to Asia, Eastern Europe
and the rest of the world are deemed to have a lower credit quality (medium and high risk). As part of the Group's risk
management, past-due receivables are monitored monthly. Historically, the Group has realized only minor credit losses
related to trade receivables. Please refer to note 20 regarding the credit quality of trade receivables.
Liquidity risk:
Liquidity risk is the risk that Glunz & Jensen will be unable to meet its obligations as they fall due because of its inability
to liquidate assets or obtain adequate funding.
The Group's primary loan agreement with Nordea is subject is subject to three covenants, which the Group must observe
in order to maintain the financing. The financial covenants are related to the financial ratio "solvency", the agreed level of
EBITDA% (EBITDA vs. revenue), and debt leverage (interest bearing debt vs. EBITDA). During 2024 Glunz & Jensen did
breach the agreed level of EBITDA% and the debt leverage covenant, however Nordea accepted the breach. The budget
for 2025 was presented to and viewed satisfactory by Nordea and a letter of cooperation for 2025 was received by Glunz
& Jensen in January 2025. On this basis, Management considers the Group’s funding for 2025 sufficient to be able to
continue meeting its payment obligations and its obligations under the financing covenants during 2025.
The Group's interest-bearing liabilities amounted to DKK 71.195 thousand on December 31
st
, 2024 (2023: DKK 74.711
thousand).
On December 31
st
, 2024, the Group's credit facilities amounted to DKK 87.955 thousand (2023: DKK 86.434 thousand)
of which DKK 71.195 thousand has been drawn (2023: DKK 74.711 thousand). The liquidity reserve amounted to DKK
16.760 thousand on December 31

The maturity analysis is based on undiscounted cash flows, including estimated interest payments. Interest payments are
based on current market conditions.
Management believes that the Group has sufficient cash resources to cover planned operations and ongoing investments.
Capital management:
It is the Group's policy that capital is distributed to the shareholders via dividends or that Glunz & Jensen purchases
treasury shares if and when earnings justify it. This means that during periods of low and unstable income, the solvency
ratio must be high, while it may be reduced if earnings stabilize at a higher level than achieved in recent years.
On December 31
st
, 2024, the solvency ratio was 49,2% (2023: 46,4%). Based on the performance during 2024 and the
outlook for 2025, the Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that no dividend be distributed for fiscal
2024.
Fair values:
There was no difference between the fair values and the carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities on December
31
st
, 2024, or on December 31

Description of accounting policies
Consolidated financial statements
The consolidated financial statements include the Parent
Company Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S and subsidiaries.
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the group. The group
‘controls’ an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to,
variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the
ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.
The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the
consolidated financial statements from the date on which control
commences until the date on which control ceases.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared by
aggregating the Parent Company’s and the individual
subsidiaries’ financial statements, applying the Group’s
accounting policies. Intra-group income and expenses,
shareholdings, balances, and dividends as well as realized and
unrealized gains arising from intra-group transactions are
eliminated on consolidation.
Entities in which the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the
voting rights and over which it exercises significant influence,
but which it does not control, are considered associates.
Foreign currency translation
A functional currency is designated for each of the reporting
entities in the Group. The functional currency is the currency
used in the primary economic environment in which the
reporting entity operates. Transactions denominated in
currencies other than the functional currency are transactions in
foreign currencies.
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the
functional currency at the exchange rate at the transaction date.
Gains and losses arising between the rate at the transaction
date and the rate at the date of payment are recognized in the
statement of comprehensive income under financial income and
expenses.
Receivables and payables and other monetary items
denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the
functional currency at the exchange rate at the balance sheet
date. Differences between the rate at the balance sheet date
and the rate at the transaction date or the exchange rate stated
in the latest annual report are recognized in the statement of
comprehensive income under financial income and expenses.
On recognition of foreign subsidiaries and associates with a
functional currency other than DKK, items in the statement of
comprehensive income are translated at average rate rates that
do not differ significantly from the rates ruling at the transaction
date. Balance sheet items in subsidiaries and the equity share
of associates are translated at closing rates.
Exchange rate differences arising on the translation of the
opening equity of subsidiaries and associates at closing rates
and on the translation of items in the statement of
comprehensive income from average rates to closing rates are
recognized in the consolidated financial statements under other
comprehensive income in equity as a separate translation
reserve.
Statement of comprehensive income
Revenue
The Glunz & Jensen Group’s main activities lie within Flexo and
Offset, which are both part of the prepress market. All products
and services are connected to setters and printing equipment.
In addition to equipment, Glunz & Jensen sells installation of the
equipment, service, and spare parts.
Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when
control of the goods or services are transferred to the customer
at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group
expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
The Group has generally concluded that it is the principal in its
revenue arrangements, because it typically controls the goods
or services before transferring them to the customer.
The recognized revenue is measured at the fair value of the
agreed consideration exclusive of VAT and fees collected on
behalf of third parties. All forms of discounts will be recognized
in revenue.
Page | 58 ANNUAL REPORT 2024
Any part of the total consideration that is variable, e.g. in the
form of discounts, bonuses, penalties, etc., will be recognized in
revenue only when reasonably certain that no repayments will
be made in subsequent periods, i.e. as the result of failure to
meet goals, etc.
Revenue from sale of goods is recognized at the point in time
when control of the asset is transferred to the customer,
generally on delivery of the equipment. The normal credit term
is 30 to 90 days upon delivery.
The Group considers whether there are other promises in the
contract that are separate performance obligations to which a
portion of the transaction price needs to be allocated (e.g.,
warranties). In determining the transaction price for the sale of
equipment, the Group considers the effects of variable
consideration, the existence of significant financing components,
noncash consideration, and consideration payable to the
customer (if any).
Customers are not entitled to return purchased goods.
The sale of services includes service packages and extended
guarantees concerning products sold. The services typically
include one performance obligation which is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the period during which the services are
provided.
Rental income arising from operating leases on investment
properties is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the
lease terms.
Costs
The Group distributes the cost, including depreciation and
amortization and wages and salaries, by the functions
production costs, sales and distribution costs, development
costs and administrative expenses. Costs not directly
attributable to a function are allocated to the functions based on
the number of employees in each function.
Administrative expenses comprise operating expenses relating
to the Group’s investment property.
Development costs comprise research costs and any
development costs not qualifying for capitalization and
depreciation and amortization of capitalized development
projects.
Administrative expenses comprise operational expenses
relating to the Group's rental property.
Other operating income and expenses
Other operating income and expenses comprise items of a
secondary nature, including gains and losses from disposal of
intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, which are
measured as the selling price less selling costs and the carrying
value at the time of sale.
Financial income and expenses
Financial income and expenses comprise interest, including
interest on lease liabilities, fair value gains and losses on
securities, realized and unrealized foreign exchange
adjustments, amortization and surcharges and allowances
under the tax prepayment scheme. Also included are realized
and unrealized gains and losses relating to derivative financial
instruments not qualifying as effective hedges.
Income tax expense
Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S is jointly taxed with its Danish
subsidiaries. The current Danish income tax charge is allocated
among the jointly taxed entities in proportion to their taxable
income.
Tax for the year, comprising current income tax for the year and
changes in deferred tax, including such changes as follow from
changes in the tax rate, is recognized in profit or loss, other
comprehensive income or in equity, depending on where the
relevant item is recognized.
Balance sheet
Development projects
Development costs comprise costs and salaries and
depreciation and amortization relating to the Group’s
development activities.
Development costs on an individual project are recognized as
an intangible asset, when the Group can demonstrate the
technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that the
asset will be available for use or sale, its intention to complete
and its ability and intention to use or sell the asset, how the asset
will generate future economic benefits, the availability of
resources to complete the asset and the ability to reliably
measure the expenditure during development.
Following initial recognition of the development expenditure as
an asset, the asset is carried at cost less any accumulated
amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization
of the asset begins when development is complete, and the
asset is available for use. It is amortized over the period of
expected future benefit, which is 3-10 years. During the period
of development, the asset is tested for impairment annually.
Other development costs are expensed as incurred.
Property, plant, and equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are measured at cost less
accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.
Cost comprises the purchase price and any costs directly
attributable to the acquisition until the asset is available for use.
Subsequent costs, e.g., for the replacement of components of
an item of property, plant, or equipment, are recognized in the
carrying amount of the asset when it is likely that the
expenditure of the replacement involves a future financial
benefit for the Group. The carrying amount of the replaced
components ceases to be recognized in the balance sheet and
is transferred to profit or loss. All other costs related to general
repair and maintenance are recognized in profit or loss as and
when incurred.
The cost value of a total asset is divided into separate
components that are depreciated separately if the useful lives of
the individual components differ. Items of property, plant and
equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their
expected useful lives:
Buildings and components 10-30 years
Technical installations 10-15 years
Other fixtures and fittings 3-5 years
Land is not depreciated.
ANNUAL REPORT 2024 Page | 59
The depreciation basis is determined considering the residual
value of the asset and any impairment losses. The residual
value is determined at the date of acquisition and is reassessed
annually. If the residual value exceeds the carrying amount of
the asset, depreciation will cease. If the depreciation period or
the residual value is changed, the effect on depreciation going
forward is recognized as a change in accounting estimates.
Leased assets
A lease asset and a lease liability are recognized in the balance
sheet when a right-of-use lease asset is transferred to the group
or the parent company for the term of the lease pursuant to a
concluded lease agreement and the group obtains the right to
substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the
identifiable asset and the right to control the use of the
identifiable asset. Service components are excluded from the
lease liability.
On initial recognition, lease liabilities are measured at the
present value of the future lease payments, discounted using an
alternative interest rate.
The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the
effective interest rate method. The lease liability is re-measured
when there is a change in the underlying contractual cash flows
due to changes in an index or an interest rate, if there is a
change to the estimate of a residual value guarantee, or if there
is a change to the assessment as to whether it is reasonably
certain that a purchase option, an extension option, or a
termination option will be exercised.
On initial recognition, the right-of-use asset is measured at cost,
corresponding to the value of the lease liability adjusted for
prepaid lease payments plus any initial direct costs and
estimated costs for dismantling, removing, and restoring or
similar and less any discounts or other types of incentive
payments granted by the lessor.
On subsequent recognition, the asset is measured at cost less
any accumulated depreciation and impairment. The right-of-use
asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and the
useful life of the asset. Depreciation charges are recognized in
the income statement on a straight-line basis.
The right-of-use asset is adjusted for any changes in the lease
liability due to changes in the lease terms or changes in the
contractual cash flows because of changes in an index or an
interest rate.
Lease assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the
estimated lease term.
The lease asset and the lease liability are presented separately
by the group and the parent company in the balance sheet.
The group and the parent company have elected not to
recognize right-of-use assets of low value and short-term leases
in the balance sheet and instead to recognize lease payments
concerning these leases in the income statement on a straight-
line basis.
When the group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its
interests in the head lease and the sub-lease separately. It
assesses the lease classification of a sub-lease with reference
to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease, not with
reference to the underlying asset.
Investment properties
Investment properties are measured initially at fair value, which
reflects market conditions at the reporting date. Gains or losses
arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties
are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise,
including the corresponding tax effect.
Investment properties are derecognized either when they have
been disposed of or when they are permanently withdrawn from
use and no future economic benefit is expected from their
disposal. The difference between the net disposal proceeds and
the carrying amount of the asset is recognized in profit or loss
in the period of derecognition.
Transfers are made to (or from) investment property only when
there is a change in use. For a transfer from investment property
to owner-occupied property, the deemed cost for subsequent
accounting is the fair value at the date of change in use. If
owner-occupied property becomes an investment property, the
Group accounts for such property in accordance with the policy
stated under "Property, plant and equipment" up to the date of
change in use. At the same date the property is evaluated to fair
value and the adjustment between the cost value and fair value
is recognized as other comprehensive income.
Investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiaries are measured using the equity
method.
Investments in subsidiaries are measured at the proportionate
share of the entities' net asset value calculated in accordance
with the Group's accounting policies minus or plus unrealized
intra-group profits and losses and plus or minus any residual
value of positive or negative goodwill determined in accordance
with the purchase method of accounting.
Investments in subsidiaries with negative net asset values are
measured at DKK 0, and any amounts owed by such entities are
written down insofar as the amount receivable is considered
irrecoverable. If the Parent Company has a legal or constructive
obligation to cover a deficit that exceeds the amount owed, the
remaining amount is recognized under "Provisions".
Net revaluation of investments in subsidiaries is recognized in
the net revaluation reserve according to the equity method
under equity where the carrying amount exceeds cost.
Dividends from subsidiaries which are expected to be declared
before the annual report of Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S is
adopted are not taken to the net revaluation reserve.
Impairment of non-current assets
Development projects are tested annually for evidence of
impairment.
Deferred tax assets are tested for impairment annually and are
written down if it is deemed likely that the deferred tax asset
cannot be utilized against tax on future income or set off against
deferred tax liabilities in the same legal tax entity and jurisdiction.
This assessment considers the type and nature of the
recognized deferred tax asset, the estimated period for set-off
of the deferred tax asset etc.
Other long-term assets are tested for impairment once a year.
When there is evidence that an asset may be impaired, the
recoverable amount of that asset is determined. The
recoverable amount is the higher of the net selling price of the
Page | 60 ANNUAL REPORT 2024
asset and the net present value of the expected future net cash
flows.
An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of
an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds the recoverable
amount of the asset or its cash-generating unit. Impairment
losses are recognized in the statement of incomprehensive
income under production costs, development costs, sales and
distribution costs and administrative expenses. However,
impairment losses in respect of goodwill are recognized in a
separate line in the statement of incomprehensive income.
Impairment losses on other long-term assets are reversed to the
extent that changes have occurred in the assumptions and
estimates based on which the impairment loss was recognized.
Impairment losses are reversed only to the extent that the new
carrying amount of the asset does not exceed the carrying
amount it would have had net of amortization and net of
depreciation if the impairment loss had not been recognized.
Inventories
Inventories are measured at cost using the FIFO method.
Goods for resale, raw materials and consumables are measured
at cost, comprising the purchase price plus delivery costs.
Finished goods and work in progress are measured at cost,
comprising the cost of raw materials, consumables, direct labor
costs and production overheads. Production overheads
comprise indirect materials and labor costs as well as
maintenance and depreciation of production machinery, factory
buildings and equipment and factory administration and
management costs.
Where the net realizable value is lower than cost, inventories
are written down to such lower value. The net realizable value
of inventories is determined as the selling price less costs of
completion and costs necessary to make the sale and is
determined considering marketability, obsolescence, and
developments in the expected selling price.
Receivables
Receivables are measured at amortized cost. A credit loss
allowance is made upon initial recognition based on historical
observed default rates adjusted for forward looking estimates
(simplified 'expected credit loss’ model). The cost of the credit
loss allowance is included in sales and distribution costs. A loss
is considered realized when it is certain that we will not recover
the receivable, e.g., in case of bankruptcy or similar.
Deposits are measured at fair value cost and consist of rent
deposits. The leases are non-cancellable for a period of 0–9
years.
Prepayments
Prepayments include expenses paid in respect of subsequent
fiscal years.
Equity
Dividend:
Dividend proposed for the year is recognized as a liability at the
time it is adopted at the Annual General Meeting. The amount
proposed as dividend for the year is stated as a separate item
in equity.
Translation reserve:
The translation reserve in the consolidated financial statements
includes accumulated foreign exchange differences arising on
the translation of the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries
from their functional currency to the presentation currency of the
Group.
Revaluation reserve:
The revaluation reserve contains adjustment occurred during
transfers to (or from) investment property when there is a
change in use, or the investment property is sold.
Income tax and deferred tax
Current tax payable and receivable is recognized in the balance
sheet as tax computed on the taxable income for the year,
adjusted for tax on the taxable income of prior years and for tax
paid on account.
Deferred tax is measured using the balance sheet liability
method, providing for all temporary differences between the
carrying amount and the tax base of assets and liabilities.
However, the following items are not recognized: goodwill not
deductible for tax purposes and other items – apart from
business combinations – where temporary differences have
arisen at the date of acquisition that neither affect profit/(loss)
nor taxable income.
Deferred tax assets, including the tax base of tax loss carry-
forwards, are recognized as other non-current assets at the
value at which they are expected to be utilized, either by
elimination against tax on future earnings or by set-off against
deferred tax liabilities within the same legal tax entity and
jurisdiction.
The deferred tax charge is adjusted in respect of elimination of
unrealized intra-group profits and losses.
Deferred tax is measured based on the tax rules and at the tax
rates that will apply under the legislation enacted at the balance
sheet date in the relevant countries when the deferred tax is
expected to crystallize in the form of current tax. Changes in
deferred tax as a result of changes in tax rates are recognized
in the statement of comprehensive income.
Under the joint taxation rules, Glunz & Jensen Holding A/S, as
the management company, becomes liable vis-à-vis the tax
authorities for the subsidiaries’ income taxes as the subsidiaries
pay their joint taxation contributions. Joint taxation contributions
payable and receivable are recognized in the balance sheet
under receivables from/payables to subsidiaries.
Provisions
Provisions comprise estimated commitments regarding
warranty obligations and restructuring etc.
Provisions are recognized when, as a result of events occurring
before or at the balance sheet date, the Group has a legal or
constructive obligation, and it is probable that an outflow of
resources embodying economic benefits will be required to
settle the obligation. Provisions are measured at Management's
best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at
the balance sheet date.
A provision for warranties is recognized when the underlying
products or services are sold. The provision is based on
historical warranty data.
Restructuring costs are recognized as liabilities when a detailed,
formal restructuring plan has been announced not later than the
balance sheet date to the parties affected by the plan.
ANNUAL REPORT 2024 Page | 61
Pension obligations
Payments relating to defined contribution plans under which the
Group regularly pays fixed contributions into an independent
pension fund are recognized in profit or loss in the period in
which they are earned, and outstanding payments are
recognized in the balance sheet under other payables.
There are no defined benefit plans within the Group.
Financial liabilities
Payables to credit institutions are recognized at the date of
borrowing at fair value (corresponding to the net proceeds
received) less transaction costs paid. In subsequent periods,
payables to credit institutions are measured at amortized cost,
corresponding to the capitalized value using the effective
interest rate method. Accordingly, the difference between the
proceeds and the nominal value (capital loss) is recognized in
profit or loss over the term of the loan.
Other liabilities are measured at net realizable value.
Prepayments from customers
Prepayments from customers include payments received which
relate to subsequent financial years.
Cash flow statement
The cash flow statement shows cash flows for the year, broken
down by operating, investing, and financing activities, and the
year’s changes in cash and cash equivalents as well as cash
and cash equivalents at the beginning and end of the year.
The cash flow effect of acquisitions and disposals of entities is
shown separately under cash flows from investing activities.
Cash flows from acquisitions of entities are recognized in the
cash flow statement from the date of acquisition, and cash flows
from disposals of entities are recognized up to the date of
disposal.
Cash flows from operating activities are determined as
profit/(loss) for the year adjusted for non-cash operating items,
changes in working capital, interest received and paid, including
interest on lease liabilities, and income taxes paid.
Cash flows from investing activities comprise payments in
connection with acquisitions and disposals of entities and
activities; acquisitions and disposals of intangible assets,
property, plant and equipment, investment properties and other
non-current assets; and acquisitions and disposals of securities
that are not recognized as cash and cash equivalents.
Cash flow from financing activities comprise changes in the size
or composition of the share capital and associated expenses as
well as raisings of loans, repayment of interest-bearing debt,
including repayment of lease liabilities, purchase and sale of
treasury shares, and payment of dividends as well as dividend
received from subsidiaries.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise deposits with credit
institutions and cash.
Segment information
Segment information is prepared in accordance with the
Group's accounting policies and internal financial reporting.
The Group presents two reportable segments: the prepress
market and the property rental Selandia Park.
Segment revenue, segment expenses, segment assets and
liabilities are those items that are directly attributable to the
individual segment or can be allocated to the segment on a
reliable basis.
Segment assets are those assets that are employed directly by
the segment in its operating activities, including non-current
assets, inventories, trade receivables, other receivables,
prepayments and cash and cash equivalents.
Segment liabilities are those liabilities that result from the
segments’ operating activities, including trade liabilities,
borrowings, lease liabilities and other liabilities.
Additional segment information is stated regarding consolidated
revenue broken down by geographic market.
