Independent Auditor’s Reports  
To the shareholders of Tresu Investment Holding A/S
Report on the audit of the Financial Statements
Our 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 financial position at 31 December 2021 and of
the results of the Group’s and the Parent Company’s operations and cash flows for the financial year 1 January
to 31 December 2021 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU
and further requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act.
Our opinion is consistent with our Auditor’s Long-form Report to the Audit Committee and the Board of
Directors.
What we have audited
The Consolidated Financial Statements and Parent Company Financial Statements of Tresu Investment
Holding A/S for the financial year 1 January to 31 December 2021 comprise income statement, statement of
comprehensive income, balance sheet, statement of changes in equity, cash flow statement and notes, including
summary of significant accounting policies for the Group as well as for the Parent Company. Collectively
referred to as the “Financial Statements”.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) and the additional
requirements applicable in Denmark. Our responsibilities under those standards and requirements are further
described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Statements section of our report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
opinion.
Independence
We are independent of the Group in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for
Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) and the additional
ethical requirements applicable in Denmark. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in
accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code.
To the best of our knowledge and belief, prohibited non-audit services referred to in Article 5(1) of Regulation
(EU) No 537/2014 were not provided.
Appointment
We were first appointed auditors of Tresu Investment Holding A/S on 23 July 2020 for the financial year
2020. We have been reappointed annually by shareholder resolution for a total period of uninterrupted
engagement of 1 year including the financial year 2021.

of the Financial Statements for 2021. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Financial

Recognition and measurement of contract work in
progress
We performed risk assessment procedures with the
purpose of achieving an understanding of it-systems,
business procedures and relevant controls regarding
the recognition and measurement of contract work in
progress. In respect of controls, we assessed whether
they were designed and implemented effectively to
address the risk of material misstatement.
At 31 December 2021 the carrying value of contract
work in progress of the group amounts to a net asset
of DKK 5 million (31 December 2020 – DKK -12
million) corresponding to a sales value of contract
work in progress of DKK 139 million (31 December
2020 – DKK 185 million).
We assessed primarily the internal processes relating
to contract acceptance and terms, monitoring of
project development, cost incurred and estimating
costs to complete and assessment provision for
specific project risks.
In accordance with IFRS 15, revenue from and profit
on contract work are recognised over time based on
the progress towards complete satisfaction of the
individual performance obligations of the contract
work (percentage -of-completion method). The
progress (stage of completion) is determined and
assessed by the proportion of the contract costs
incurred at the balance sheet date compared to the
total costs including the estimated cost to complete
the contract.
We assessed the accounting policies applied and the
Group’s application and interpretation of relevant
reporting standards.
We obtained from Management an overview of the

Statement on Management’s Review
Management is responsible for Management’s Review.
Our opinion on the Financial Statements does not cover Management’s Review, and we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the Financial Statements, our responsibility is to read Management’s Review
and, in doing so, consider whether Management’s Review is materially inconsistent with the Financial
Statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
Moreover, we considered whether Management’s Review includes the disclosures required by the Danish
Financial Statements Act.
Based on the work we have performed, in our view, Management’s Review is in accordance with the
Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statements and has been prepared in
accordance with the requirements of the Danish Financial Statements Act. We did not identify any material
misstatement in Management’s Review.
Management’s responsibilities for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of consolidated financial statements and parent company
financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards as adopted by the EU and further requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act, and for
such internal control as Management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements
that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Financial Statements, Management is responsible for assessing the Group’s and the Parent
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern
and using the going concern basis of accounting unless Management either intends to liquidate the Group or
the Parent Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Statements as a whole are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with ISAs and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if,

individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of
users taken on the basis of these Financial Statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark, we
exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
•
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud
or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material
misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
•
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness
of the Group’s and the Parent Company’s internal control.
•
•
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by Management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of Management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions
that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s and the Parent Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our
auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the Financial Statements or, if such disclosures are
inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the
date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group or the Parent
Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
•
•
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the Financial Statements, including the
disclosures, and whether the Financial Statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a
manner that gives a true and fair view.
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business
activities within the Group to express an opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements. We are
responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely
responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and
timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control
that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that
may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence and, where applicable, actions taken to eliminate
threats or safeguards applied.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were
of most significance in the audit of the Financial Statements of the current period and are therefore the key
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public
disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine 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.

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 all financial information required to be tagged
using judgement where necessary;
● Ensuring consistency between iXBRL tagged data and the Consolidated Financial Statements presented
in human-readable format; and
● For such internal control as Management determines necessary to enable the preparation of an annual
report that is compliant with the ESEF Regulation.
Our responsibility is to obtain reasonable assurance on whether the annual report is prepared, in all material
respects, in compliance with the ESEF Regulation based on the evidence we have obtained, and to issue a
report that includes our opinion. The nature, timing and extent of procedures selected depend on the auditor’s
judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material departures from the requirements set out in the
ESEF Regulation, whether due to fraud or error. The procedures include:
● Testing whether the annual report is prepared in XHTML format;
● Obtaining an understanding of the company’s iXBRL tagging process and of internal control over the
tagging process;
● Evaluating the completeness of the iXBRL tagging of the Consolidated Financial Statements;
● 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 Tresu Investment Holding A/S for the financial year 1 January to 31
December 2021 with the file name tresu-2021-12-31-en.zip is prepared, in all material respects, in
compliance with the ESEF Regulation.

Primary activities  
The Group develops, produces and sells custom made in-line flexo printing machines for the packaging
manufacturing industry and ancillary products for the digital, flexo and offset printing industry worldwide.
Development in activities  
In 2021 we continued working on a number of strategic initiatives with the aim of further strengthening the  
platform of our core business within custom made in-line flexo printing machines for the packaging  
manufacturing industry and ancillary products for the digital, flexo and offset printing industry worldwide but
also to develop the future organization to support the growth.  
Despite the postponement of customer projects due to primarily global sourcing challenges linked to Covid-  
19, we are confident that the Group has a solid business platform focused on the graphical industry in Americas,  
Europe and Asia, backed by strong technical competences as well as cost effective production setup in  
Denmark by the end of the fiscal year. This provides a strong platform for securing the competitive strengths
that continue to be the basis for value-adding growth for our customers, the Group and for our owners.  
As part of supporting the development in activities in 2022 and the business plan for 2022-24, we have  
succeeded with prolonging the expiration of the bonds until January 2025 during second half of 2021.  
Financial developments in the fiscal year 2021  
The result in the Group is impacted by Covid-19 with postponement of delivery of customer projects and  
critical components, and therefore the order backlog by end of 2021 is record high DKK 239,0m.  
Consolidated revenue for the financial year 2021 is DKK 340,9m (2020: DKK 302,1m).  
Operating profit (EBIT) for the year 2021 was DKK -52,0m (2020: DKK -63,3m).  
Average number of headcounts in the Group in 2021 was 150 FTE (2020: 171).  
Cash flow from operating activities in 2021 amounted to DKK -6,4m (2020: DKK 45,9) and net investments  
in property, plant and equipment equalled DKK 0,9m (2020: DKK 1,3m).  
At the end of 2021, total assets were DKK 762,0m (2020: 815,5m) and total equity amounted to DKK -11,9m  
(2020: DKK -50,7m). The equity is positively impacted by a capital injection of DKK 70,0m in 2021.  
The financial results 2021 are below original expectations but in line with re-adjusted expectations after taken  
Covid-19 impacts into consideration.  
Objective and outlook  
Driven by our relentless focus on reducing our customers’ total cost of print, we expect to expand our market  
position as we continue to penetrate the global market with our Flexo Innovator machines. We predict  
continued consolidation within our customers in the Folding Carton industry and expect machine demand to  
be driven by both replacements as well as new installations.  
The ancillary product segment continues to follow the general market development and support our  
development in the Aftermarket segment.  
 
Tresu Investment Holding A/S  
12  
Management commentary  
Against this outlook the Group expects a revenue growth in the area of 25-35% and EBITDA margin of  
approximately 10% (adjusted for non-recurring items) as well as a positive cash flow from operating activities  
in 2022.  
Operating risks  
To ensure a stable supply TRESU has entered into long-term agreements with relevant sub-suppliers for the  
delivery of essential components.  
Credit risk  
The credit risks of the Group are primarily related to trade receivables and customer specific projects included  
as part contract work in progress. The major part of the Group’s products and projects are delivered to well-  
reputed, large international companies in the international packaging market.  
Credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis, and we perform an in-depth credit assessment of new customers  
and ongoing assessment of existing customers. In recent years, no significant debtor losses have been recorded.  
Currency risks  
The consolidated financial statements are influenced by changes in exchange rates, as the result, and equity of  
the subsidiaries are converted into Danish kroner at year-end based on the average and year-end rates.  
The currency risk of the Group is primarily related to EUR and USD and mainly managed through matching  
of incoming and outgoing payment currencies, whereas active hedging e.g. instruments is only used to a limited  
extent in line with the established policy. In connection with considerations about the future financing structure  
of the Group, Management has examined various possibilities of covering risks connected with loan financing,  
cash flow in foreign currency and related interest costs.  
Interest rate risks  
Since the interest-bearing net liabilities have a variable interest, changes in the interest rate level may have a  
significant direct effect on the earnings. Hedging of interest rate risk is not carried out.  
Intellectual capital resources  
The competitive advantage of the Group is the development and production of leading technology printing  
machines and associated products, which entails particularly high demands on the intellectual capital resources  
both in the development and production divisions.  
It is essential that the Group can recruit, develop and retain employees with a high level of education and the  
right set of skills to maintain our high level of technical competence and innovation.  
The Group has implemented a quality management system which documents the individual methods and  
procedures to secure the critical business processes in relation to development, production and sales. The  
system is maintained and updated as part of the ISO 9001:2015 certification.  
Research and development activities  
Development activities comprise continuous development of our technology, product portfolio and  
development of new products with the ultimate objective of increasing our customers’ uptime and reducing  
their cost of operations and/or climate footprint.  
 
Tresu Investment Holding A/S  
13  
Management commentary  
The Group’s total costs for R&D make up to approx. 3% of the revenue. We have as in previous years invested  
significantly in future technology in line with the requirements to support the strategy and not at least meet the  
customer’s demand.

Social & Labor conditions
The employees of the Group are essential to maintain our high level of technical competence and innovation.
The Group prioritizes safety and health and wants to be regarded as a company with high standards in relation
to the physical and psychological working environment. Preventive measures and high ethical standards are
central themes in our Working Environment Policy.
This means that the Group complies with the rules of the authorities in force at any time, has a number of
governance policies and continuously implements improvements to the working environment. The Group has
an active safety organization and motivates the employees to be aware of the working environment and to
understand the importance of the efforts of each individual person. Further, the Group requires that suppliers

Environment and climate
The Group strives to minimize the environmental and climate footprint. The primary risk is related to the
environmental impact, e.g. electricity consumption and raw material consumption in relation to production of
printing machines and ancillary products.
The environmental policy of the Group is to act as an environmentally aware company at the forefront of the
expectations of customers and surroundings and at all time to be in compliance with the requirements of the
authorities.

Management commentary  
This means that the Group:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
complies with the requirements of DNV/EN ISO 14001:2015
continuously implements and documents improvement to the environment
continuously reduces the environmental footprint
motivates the employees to be environmentally aware
documents the environmental footprint of the products in an objective way
involves the employees actively to carry out improvements to the environment
requires that suppliers are environmentally aware
can explain purchased equipment’s impact on the environment
informs the public of the result of the environmental initiatives
The environmental policy is based on responsible environmental operations and is an integrated part of the
Group’s targets in terms of both manufacturing our equipment and customers using our equipment in their
production.
As an example, we have developed optional heat exchange for reduced gas consumption. This heat
exchanger is part of the drying process in the printing machines and enables our customer to save up to half
the gas consumption and thereby reduce CO2 emissions.
Results achieved and expectations for future CSR activities
The Group’s aim for 2021 was to carry through improvements of our products so that our customer’s
contribution to the global CO2 emission would be reduced by at least 6.000 tonnes per year. The Group’s
external CO2 reduction impact focuses on the current installed base for two main machines i.e., VT FLEX ES
machines and the portfolio of Flexo Innovator machines delivered to TRESU customers. The result in 2021
was a total annual CO2 reduction of above 6.500 tonnes on the external energy consumption associated with
the specific TRESU products using the heat recovery systems in the drying design.
Further, the Group has consolidated its headquarters and production facilities into the new domicile in August
2019, which is constructed and erected in accordance with the Danish building regulation 2015 and awarded
energy label “A2015”. Windows and doors are fitted with 3-layer low-energy glass, lamps are mounted with
LED lights and motion sensors, taps are established with hands-free fixtures etc. The relocation has resulted
in a reduction of 51% of the internal energy consumption corresponding to a total yearly saving of 263 tonnes
CO2.
The Group will in 2022 aim to help our customers to reduce their annual CO2 emission by at least 6.500 tonnes
per year.
The goal of the Group for 2021 was an absenteeism of maximum 2,8%. Despite the continued focus on the
working environment, we have realized an increased absenteeism amounting to 3,7% divided into short-term
absenteeism accounting for 1,8% and long-term absenteeism accounting for 1,9% – an increase of 0,3%-point
compared to 2020, which is in the light of covid-19 satisfied.
In 2022 the Group will have a continued focus on preventive measures and information. The goal of the Group
is an absenteeism of maximum 2,8% covering both short term and long-term absenteeism.

Management commentary  
Report on the underrepresented gender
All Group staff was recruited based on professional skills without regard to religion, race, gender, handicap or
age. The Group look upon diversity as a strength and actively combat discrimination and aspire to promote
equal treatment. This applies to the management level as well as all other levels in the organization.
The Groups’ long-term ambition is to achieve a composition of the underrepresented gender at Board of
Directors, reflecting the composition of gender in the total organization. The target was that the share of women
should be at least 14,3% (1 woman) at management level in 2021. This has been met on executive management
level but not on Board of Directors level. Today, there are no women at the Board of Directors level, the board
is all appointed based on their specific and relevant industry knowledge. It has not been possible to attract
female candidates with enough industry knowledge to match our target.
The target for other management levels is to reach the level of the overall gender split in the group, this is for
2021 16% women. This has been met on executive management level, however we are only at 9% on other
management levels. We still aim at ensuring a greater balance in the composition of gender among managers
of the company. This is done by encouraging women in the organization to develop their competences and
careers, however in all cases the best qualified person will be employed for the job.
The target for Board of Directors, executive management level and other management level has been set to
14% for 2022 supporting that we still aim at ensuring a greater balance in the composition of gender among
all managers of the company.
Statement of data ethics Policy
We have in 2021 not established a policy for data ethics. Overtime it will for sure become relevant for TRESU
Group, but until now we do not process data or uses algorithms for data analysis, and it is not an integrated
part of the TRESU Group’s business strategy and business activity. We will continue to follow the best practice
within data ethics, and we can confirm that we despite no formal established data ethics policy still among
others use awareness campaigns, secure compliance with code of conduct and communicate the importance of
protecting fundamental rights for alle stakeholders.
Corporate governance

Notes to consolidated financial statements  
1. Accounting policies and significant accounting policies  
The Annual Report of Tresu Investment Holding A/S, a Danish company, and its subsidiary companies has  
been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as adopted by the EU,  
and additional Danish requirements applicable to reporting class D, including the statutory order on adoption  
of IFRS issued pursuant to the Danish Financial Statements Act.  
The consolidated financial statements are presented for the period 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021,  
including its consolidated subsidiaries.  
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Danish kroner, which is the Parent Company’s  
functional currency.  
The significant accounting policies adopted can be found in note 35.  
Implementation of new standards, amendments, and interpretations  
The Annual Report 2021 has been prepared using the same accounting policies for recognition and  
measurement as those applied to the consolidated financial statements for 2020, except for the following  
Amendments that were adopted as of 1 January 2021:  
•
IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16: IBOR-reform, phase 2. A number of amendments which  
may help companies resolve accounting issues arising from changes in contractual cash flows or  
hedging conditions during implementation of the IBOR-reform. The amendments pertain to  
modifications, hedge accounting and disclosure requirements.  
We have assessed the effect of the new standards, amendments, and interpretations. We have concluded that  
all standards, amendments, and interpretations effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January  
2021 are either not relevant to the Group or have no significant effect on the Financial Statements of the Group.  
New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group  
The following new standards, amendments, and interpretations of relevance to the Group have been adopted  
by the IASB and adopted by the EU. The standards are not yet effective and will therefore not be implemented  
in the Annual Reports until they take effect.  
•
IFRS 16, Leases: The amendment clarifies that modifications regarding lease payments because of  
COVID-19 should not be treated as modifications for accounting purposes even though they meet the  
definition of a modification of a lease according to the standard.  
The amendment will be effective beginning on or after 1 April 2021.

The amendments will be effective beginning on or after 1 January 2022.  
The Group has assessed the effect of the new standards, amendments, and interpretations and we have  
concluded that all standards, amendments and interpretations are either not relevant to the Group or have no  
significant effect on the Financial Statements of the Group.  
2. Use of estimates and judgement  
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions related to the reporting of  
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the preparation of these  
consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS. Actual results could differ from those estimates.  
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting  
estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period  
or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.  
Going concern  
The group has per. 31 December 2021 a negative equity of DKK 12 million.  
In the second half of 2021, the Group obtained an extension of the repayment date on the bond loan from  
September 2022 to January 2025, and at the same time as the Group's shareholder, Altor Fund IV Holding AB  
(Altor), canceled DKK 90 million of the bond loan so that the debt and interest burden are reduced. Altor's  
commitment to the TRESU Group was further demonstrated by the fact that Altor financed all the costs  
associated with the transaction, while at the same time waiving a receivable.  
The budget for 2022, which is based on a record high order book, shows a significant increase in revenue and  
earnings. Budgets and predictions about the future are inherently and as always associated with uncertainty.  
Based on the above, the company's management and board of directors have presented the annual report for  
2021 under the going concern premise.  
Goodwill and other non-current assets - impairment  
During annual testing of goodwill and other non-current assets for impairment, or when an indication of  
impairment exists, an assessment is made as to how those activities of the Group (cash-generating units) that  
relate to goodwill would be able to generate sufficient positive future net cash flows to support the value of  
goodwill, non-current intangible assets and property, plant and equipment relating to those activities. Due to  
 
Tresu Investment Holding A/S  
27  
Notes to consolidated financial statements  
the nature of the business, estimates are made of cash flows for many years ahead, which inherently results in  
some uncertainty. The Company expects to be able to return to former levels of revenue and EBITDA due to  
penetration of the US market and the customer portfolio, consisting of market leaders within the Company´s  
main markets. The risk and uncertainty related to achieving this are reflected in the discount rate applied and  
in the terminal value growth rate.  
Please see specification in note 13.  
Contract work in progress  
The method for estimating work in progress is based on total cost for calculation of percentage of completion  
(POC). Contract work in progress is continuously assessed to see if the net realizable value is higher than cost  
incurred.  
The stage of completion on Contract work in progress is based on an estimate of cost to finish the asset. These  
estimates might change as assets evolve, cf. note 35 accounting policies on revenue.  
It may be necessary to change previous estimates due to changes in those circumstances on which the estimates  
are based, or due to new information or subsequent events.  
Lease of property  
The Company’s property leases allow for extension at the discretion of the Company. The determination of  
the lease term is significant to the calculation of lease liabilities and right-of-use assets,  
and consequently, due to discounting, to depreciation and interest costs of the year. Management  
has assessed the probable lease term for individual leases in relation to the Company’s strategic  
goals and current plans. If these goals and plans are changed, the lease liabilities and right-of-use  
assets are revised. The matter is described in further detail in note 35.  
3. Revenue and segmentation of operations  
When adopting IFRS, Management has analysed segmentation of the operations through the strategic  
management, decision and reporting structure used by Management. The analysis resulted in that two segment  
was identified.

Notes to consolidated financial statements  
In the impairment test the discounted value of future net cash flows are compared with the carrying amount of  
the Cash Generating Unit.  
The key assumptions underlying the calculation of value in use are the determination of EBITDA growth in  
the period 2022 to 2027, discount rate and terminal value growth rate.  
EBITDA growth is determined based on historical EBITDA realized in the Group, the board approved budget  
for 2022, adjusted for non-recurring expenses, forecast for 2023-2027 agreed by the board and general  
parameters such as expected market development and market trends (i.e. sustainability) etc.  
The EBITDA growth rate is based on the following:  
•
The revenue is expected to grow with a CAGR amounting to approx. 9% until 2027. The baseline in  
2021 has been negatively impacted by Covid-19 delaying part of the income recognition to 2022, but  
we also see that the market had as expected started picking up again in 2022 supported by a record  
high order intake for 2021 amounting to 422 mDKK and order back log by end of 2021 at 239 mDKK.  
We will drive the improvements within all segments by offering proactive lifecycle management of  
the installed base, bringing new technology and products to the market, improved go-to-market  
strategy and servicing customers more extensively.  
•
•
•
Increasing global need for packaged foods and beverages.  
Sustainability increasingly a key topic in customers’ major investment decisions tapping well into our  
technology.  
•
•
•
Continued focus on supply chain improvements and lean implementation.  
Strong control of OPEX development, focusing on converting from fixed costs to variable costs.  
In total the EBITDA margin is expected to increase to approx. 15% in 2027.  
Other key assumptions from the impairment testing of goodwill are as follows:  
The growth rate used in the terminal period is 0% (0% in 2020).  
The booked value of goodwill is allocated based on the activity level (65% refers to Solutions and 35%  
refers to Ancillary), which is also reflected in the base for impairment testing.  
The discount rate is determined based on the Company´s borrowing rate plus a risk premium that reflects the  
risk involved in investing in shares and the risk involved in the activity performed. A base after-tax discount  
rate of 10,8% (10,8% in 2020) is used (equivalent to a before tax discount rate of 13,8 % (13,8% in 2020)) and  
is supported by equivalent external benchmarks.  
Sensitivity analyses of the recoverable amount shows a headroom of approx. DKK 42 million if growth rate  
will be 3% lower YoY and a headroom of approx. DKK 40 million if the discount rate was increased by 1%  
point. If the growth rate will be 6% lower YoY, we will reach a break-even point with a headroom at DKK 0.

Apart from goodwill and brand, all other intangible assets are regarded as having determinable useful lives  
over which the assets are amortized; see accounting policies in note 35. Estimated useful life of Patents is on  
average 14 years. Estimated useful lives of Customer Relationships are between 4-10 years. Estimated useful  
lives of completed development projects are between 3-12 years.  
Management has tested the carrying amount of the above-mentioned intangibles using the same assumptions  
as listed in note 13. Management has not observed indications of impairment on intangible assets.

Notes to consolidated financial statements  
The Group has no significant risk related to a single customer or market, and historical losses has been very  
limited.  
Write-downs for bad and doubtful receivables are based on individual evaluations of the aging profiles, and a  
% has been provisioned according to expected risk of the receivable.  
After this analysis it is still the expectation that future losses will be very limited, and we have therefor kept  
the method from prior years.  
Please see note 29 for further information.

Amounts relating to contract work in progress are balances due from customers that arise when the Group  
carried out work at the balance sheet date. These agreements do not include a variable consideration. The  
Group receives payment from customers in line with the agreed payments terms at placing the order, prior to  
shipment of machines and a minor part after installation/commissioning acceptance. Any amount previously  
recognized as a contract work in progress is reclassified to trade receivables at the point at which it is  
invoiced to the customer. The Group expects that all performance obligations for ongoing projects will be  
met within a period of 12 months. End of 2021 we still have 3 projects started in 2020, which are not 100%  
finalized, with total sales value of DKK 20.7m recognized in 2020.

Policy for controlling financial risks  
The Group, due to its operations, investments and financing, is exposed to market risks in the form of changes  
in exchange rates and interest rates, as well as credit risk and liquidity risks. The Group manages the financial  
risk centrally and coordinates the Group´s liquidity management, including capital procurement and placement  
of surplus funds.  
It is the Group´s policy not to make any speculation in financial risks.  
The Group manages the financial risks through the use of three different tools for cash flow budgeting; a model  
covering a rolling three-month period, a model that covers a period of one year, and a model covering a period  
of three years.  
Currency risks  
The Group´s currency risks are primarily hedged by matching payments received and made in the same  
currency. The difference between ingoing and outgoing payments denominated in the same currency is a  
measure of currency risk.  
 
Tresu Investment Holding A/S  
50  
Notes to consolidated financial statements  
Interest risks  
Both corporate bonds and bank debt has a variable interest rate, and therefore the Group has a significant  
interest rate risk. Other payables have a short repayment profile, and the Group only has a low interest rate risk  
on those payables.  
Liquidity risks  
The Group aims to have adequate cash resources to continuously carry out transactions appropriately as regards  
operations and investments. The Group´s cash reserve consists of cash and cash equivalents as well as undrawn  
credit facilities. The Group´s liquidity is mainly based on operating profits and the difference between the time  
of payment and the time of settlement.  
Credit risks  
The Group is not exposed to significant credit risks. Customers must pay in advance if they are considered to  
have any increased risk in relation to other accounts receivables.  
Credit risks on going contract work for the account of a third party is limited. Invoices on account are thus  
agreed to follow minimum the cost of incurred on contract work, Furthermore, all contract customers must pay  
a part of the total consideration at placing the order, which in itself reduces the credit risk substantially.  
Currency risks  
The Group has not entered into any derivatives financial instruments to hedge recognized financial assets and  
liabilities. The Group´s currency exposure is specified below.

Sensitivity analysis regarding currency risks  
The Group´s main currency exposure relates to debt in EUR. The following shows the net impact on equity  
and profit for the year if the exchange rate of the currencies in question had been 1% lower at the end of the  
year than the actual rate used. If the rate had been 1% higher priced than the actual exchange rate, then it would  
have had a corresponding net negative impact on equity and profit for the year.

The Corporate bonds are issued in EUR and the principal amount is subject to exchange rate fluctuations  
between the Company´s functional currency (DKK) and EUR. A 1% change in the EUR rate at 31st December  
2021 would have affected comprehensive income and equity by approximately DKK 4,2m. The sensitivity  
analysis shows the difference between the 31st December 2021 fair value calculated for the Group´s assets and  
liabilities denominated in EUR.  
Interest rate risks  
The Group has a significant degree of interest-bearing financial liabilities and as a consequence is exposed to  
interest rate risks. In regard to the Group´s financial assets and financial liabilities, the following contractual  
interest rate adjustment dates or maturity date can be specified, depending which date is the earlier, and how  
much of the interest-bearing assets and liabilities are at a fixed-rate. Variable rate loans are deemed to have  
interest rate adjustment dates that fall within one year.

The financial impact from, and uncertainty created by, the ongoing pandemic means that the timing of a  
refinancing at par is difficult to assess. However, we reiterate that we deem the earnings capacity of the  
company without the impact of COVID-19 to be more than sufficient to carry the existing debt quantum  
meaning that a refinancing at par is a matter of timing.

Credit risks  
The primary credit risk in the Group is related to trade receivables from the sale of goods and services and  
contract work in progress. The Group´s most significant credit risks related to the Group´s largest customers.  
Those customers are required to partly pay advance payments in order to reduce the credit risks.  
The maximum credit risk related to trade receivables from the sale of goods and services and contract work in  
progress corresponds to their carrying amount. Information about detained payments for completed work can  
be found in note 18.  
Default of loan agreement  
The Group has not neglected or defaulted loan agreements, during the financial year or the comparative year.  
Optimization of capital structure  
The company´s management continuously assesses whether the Group´s capital structure is in line with the  
interests of the company and its owners. The overall objective is to secure a capital structure that supports  
long-term economic growth while maximizing returns to the Group´s stakeholders through an optimization of  
the equity/debt ratio. The Group´s overall strategy is that the Group´s capital structure shall consist of debt  
comprising financial liabilities in the form of corporate bonds, bank debt and financial leasing liabilities, cash  
equivalents and equity.  
Internal control  
Internal control systems are designed for reporting in accordance with International Financial Reporting  
Standards as adopted by the EU and additional disclosure requirements for annual reports of listed companies.  
The system contributes to TRESU’s financial statements, providing fair presentations without material  
misstatements.  
Comprehensive monthly accounting data is reported from all group subsidiaries. Such data is then analyzed  
and monitored at group, company and other operational levels.

Financial gearing  
The company´s board of directors reviews the Group´s capital structure twice a year in connection with the  
presentation of half-yearly reports and annual reports. As part of this review, the board assesses the Group´s  
capital costs and the risk associated with the individual types of capital. The financial gearing as per 31st  
December 2021 is below zero which also was the case per 31st December 2020. Based on the latest review of  
the Group´s capital structure, the board expects the financial gearing in 2022 to remain at approximately the  
same level as 2021.  
At balance sheet date the financial gearing can be calculated accordingly:

35. Accounting policies  
The Annual Report of Tresu Investment Holding A/S and its subsidiary companies has been prepared in  
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as adopted by the EU, and additional  
Danish requirements applicable to reporting class D enterprises.  
The accounting policies applied to these Consolidated Financial Statements and Parent Financial Statements  
are consistent with those applied last year.  
The Consolidated and Parent Company Financial Statements for 2021 are presented in TDKK.  
Consolidated financial statements  
The consolidated financial statements comprise the Parent (Tresu Investment Holding A/S) and the group  
subsidiaries that are controlled by the Parent. Control is achieved by the Parent, either directly or indirectly,  
holding more than 50% of the voting rights or in any other way possible or actually exercising controlling  
influence. See also Group chart under Management Commentary, page 9.  
Basis of consolidation  
The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis of the annual report of the Parent and its  
subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements are prepared by combining uniform items. On  
consolidation, intra-group income and expenses, intra-group accounts and dividends as well as profits and  
losses on transactions between the consolidated subsidiaries are eliminated. The financial statements used for  
consolidation have been prepared applying the Group´s accounting policies.  
Subsidiaries´ financial statement items are recognized in full in the consolidated financial statements.  
Foreign currency translation  
On initial recognition, foreign currency transactions are translated applying the exchange rate at the transaction  
date. Receivables, payables and other monetary items denominated in foreign currencies that have not been  
settled at the balance sheet date are translated using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Exchange  
differences that arise between the rate at the transaction date and the one on effect at the payment date, or the  
rate at the balance sheet date are recognized in the income statement as financial income or financial expenses.  
Property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, inventory and other non-monetary assets that have been  
purchased in foreign currencies are translated using historical rates.  
When recognising foreign subsidiaries and associates that are entities with a functional currency different from  
the functional currency of the parent company, the income statements are translated at average exchange rates  
for the month that do not significantly deviate from rates at the transaction date. Balance sheet items are  
translated using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Exchange difference arising out of the translations  
of foreign subsidiaries´ equity at the beginning of the year at the balance sheet date exchange rates as well as  
out if the translation of income statements from average rates to the exchange rates at the balance sheet date  
are recognized in other comprehensive income.

Notes to consolidated financial statements  
Tax on profit/loss for the year  
Tax for the year, which consists of current tax and changes in deferred tax, is recognized in the income  
statement by the portion attributable to the profit for the year and in other comprehensive income or recognized  
directly in equity by the portion attributable to entries respectively in other comprehensive income or directly  
in equity.  
Current tax payable and tax receivables is recognized in the balance as calculated tax of the years´ taxable  
income, regulated with paid tax on account, using rates enacted at the balance sheet date.  
Deferred tax on all temporary differences between the carrying amount and the tax base of assets and liabilities  
is measured using the balance sheet liability method. However, deferred tax is not recognized on temporary  
differences relating to goodwill. Where alternative tax rules can be applied to determine the tax base, deferred  
tax is measured based on management´s planned use if the asset or settlement of the liability. If specific  
dividend plans exist for subsidiaries in countries levying withholding tax on distributions, deferred tax is  
recognized on expected dividend payments. Deferred tax assets, including the tax base of tax loss carry  
forward, are recognized under other non-current assets at the expected value of their utilization, either as a set-  
off against tax on future income or as a set-off against deferred tax liabilities in same legal tax entity and  
jurisdiction.  
Deferred tax assets and tax liabilities are offset if the entity has a legally enforced right to offset current tax  
liabilities and tax assets or intends either to settle current tax liabilities and tax assets or to realize the assets  
and settle the liabilities simultaneously. Deferred tax assets are subject to annual impairment tests and reced  
only to the extent that it is probable that the assets will be utilized. Adjustments are made to deferred tax  
resulting from elimination of unrealized intra-group profits and losses.  
Deferred tax is measured according to the tax rules and at the tax rates applicable in the respective countries  
at the end of the reporting period and when the deferred tax is expected to crystallize as current tax. The change  
in deferred tax as a result of changes in tax rates is recognized in the income statement. Changes to deferred  
tax on items recognized in other comprehensive income are, however, recognized in other comprehensive  
income.  
Segment information  
The reporting on business segments follows the structure of TRESU’s internal management reporting to  
internal stakeholders and the group Executive Board. The group Executive Board uses business segmentation  
when allocating resources and following up on results. The internal reporting does not allocate assets or  
liabilities to the segments.  
Revenue  
The Group recognized revenue from the following major sources:  
•
•
Sales of Flexo Inline Printing machines – mostly recognized as contract work in progress  
Sales of ancillary products  
Revenue from sales of manufactured goods and goods for resale is recognized in the income statement when  
delivery is made, and control is transferred to the buyer, and the consideration agreed is expected to received.  
Control is generally deemed to be transferred upon delivery of the components in accordance with the agreed  
delivery plan.  
 
Tresu Investment Holding A/S  
60  
Notes to consolidated financial statements  
Revenue from ancillary products is generally recognized upon shipment of products, provided there are no  
significant uncertainties regarding customer acceptance, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the  
sales prices are fixed and determinable, and it is probable that the sales are collectible. Amounts billed to  
customers for shipping and handlings are included in net sales and are recorded upon shipment of goods to  
customers. Costs of providing these services are included in costs of sales.  
Customized solutions, with a high degree of customisation, are recognized over time as machines are  
constructed based om the stage of completion of the individual contracts, as contract work in progress. See  
also descriptions below regarding contract work in progress. Where the profit from a contract work cannot be  
estimated reliably, revenue is only recognized equalling the cost incurred to the extent that it is probable that  
the cost will be recovered. Revenue from sales of services is recognized in the income statement over the term  
if agreement as the services are provided. Revenue is recognized net of VAT, duties and sales discounts is  
measured at fair value if the consideration fixed. Payment for the service contract can be paid in advance or  
over the service period´s execution.  
Contract work in progress  
Revenue from project work in progress relates to production of assets without an alternative use to the Group  
and the Group has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.  
If the selling price of a project work in progress can be measured reliably, revenue and costs related to the  
contract is recognized according to the stage of completion on balance sheet date.  
If the selling price of a project work in progress cannot be made up reliably, revenue is recognized according  
to costs, if these costs are likely to be regained.  
Cost of sales work and contracting are recognized in the income statement as occurred.  
Production costs  
Production costs comprise expenses incurred to earn revenue for the financial period. Production costs  
comprise direct and indirect costs for raw materials and consumables, wages and salaries, rent and lease as

Balance Sheet  
Goodwill and other intangible assets  
On initial recognition, goodwill is recognized at cost in the balance sheet as described under “Business  
combinations”. Subsequently, goodwill is measured at cost any less accumulated impairment losses.  
The carrying amount of goodwill is allocated to the Group´s cash-generating units at the time of acquisition.  
Determination of cash-generating units complies with the management structure and management control of  
the Group.  
Goodwill is recognized as an asset and is tested for impairment annually, or on such other occasions that events  
or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. On disposal of a subsidiary, the amount  
attributable of unamortized goodwill that has not been subject to impairment is included in the determination  
of the gain or loss on disposal.  
Intangible assets other than goodwill are valued at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment  
losses. Brands have been assigned an indefinite useful life. “TRESU" brand has been in existence since 1981  
and given the strength of the brand, it is likely to continue in the future. Capitalized development costs are  
amortized on a straight-line basis over a 3-12 useful life. Customer relationships, patens and other intangibles  
are amortized on a straight-line basis over a 3-14-year useful life. Costs for acquired assets represent the  
purchase price acquisition.  
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not depreciated but are annually tested for impairments. If the  
carrying amount of the assets exceeds the recoverable value, it will be written down to lower value, see the  
section below regarding impairment.  
Development projects on clearly defined and identifiable products and process, for which the technical rate of  
utilization, adequate resources and potential future market or development opportunity in the enterprise can be  
established, and where the intention is to manufacture, market or apply the product or process in question, are  
recognized as intangible assets. Other development costs are recognized as costs in the income statement as  
incurred.  
The cost of development projects comprises costs such as salaries and amortization that are directly and  
indirectly attributable to the development projects.  
Indirect production costs in the form of indirect attributable staff costs and amortization of intangible assets  
and depreciation on property, plant and equipment used in the development process are recognized in costs  
based on time spent on each project.  
Profit and losses from sales of other intangible assets are calculated as the difference between selling price less  
selling costs and the carrying amount at the time of the sale. Profits or losses are recognized in the income  
statement under other operating income/-expenses.  
Estimated useful lives and residual values are reassessed annually.  
 
Tresu Investment Holding A/S

Notes to consolidated financial statements  
Property, plant and equipment  
Land and buildings are measured at costs less accumulated and impairment losses. Land is not depreciated.  
Plan and machinery as well as other fixtures, tools and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated  
depreciation and impairment losses.  
Cost comprises the acquisition price, costs directly attributable to the acquisition, and preparation costs of the  
assets until the time when it is ready to be put into operation. For company-manufactures assets, costs comprise  
direct and indirect costs of materials, components, sub suppliers and labor costs.  
For assets held under leases, cost is the lower of the asset´s fair value and present value of future lease  
payments.  
The basis of depreciation is cost less estimated residual value after end of useful life. Straight-line depreciation  
is made on the basis of the following estimated useful lives of the assets:  
Buildings  
33 years  
3-20 years  
3-20 years  
3-20 years  
Plant and machinery  
Other fixtures and fittings, tools and equipment  
Leasehold improvements  
Estimated useful lives and residual values are reassessed annually.  
Property, plant and equipment are written down to the lower of recoverable amount and carrying amount.  
Profits and losses from the sale of property, plant and equipment are calculated as the difference between  
selling price less selling costs and carrying amount at the time of sale. Profit or losses are recognized in the  
income statement under the operating income/-expenses.  
Impairment of intangible and tangible assets  
The carrying amount of both intangible and tangible assets and items of property, plant and equipment are  
reviewed annually for indicators of impairment in addition to that reflected through amortization and  
depreciation. However, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested annually.  
If any such indication exist, impairment tests are made of each assets and group of assets, respectively. Write-  
down is made to the lower of recoverable amount and carrying amount.  
The recoverable amount is the higher of net selling price and value in use. Value in use is the present value of  
the estimated net income from using the assets or the group of assets.

Notes to consolidated financial statements  
Leases  
Leased assets and lease liabilities are recognized in the balance sheet when the leased asset under a lease  
entered into regarding a specific identifiable asset is made available to the Group in the lease term, and when  
the Group obtains the right to substantially all economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and the  
right to control the use of the identified asset.  
On initial recognition, lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the future lease payments discounted  
by an incremental borrowing rate. The following lease payments are recognized as part of the lease liabilities:  
•
•
Fixed payments  
Variable payments that change concurrently with changes to an index and an interest rate based on  
said index or interest rate  
•
•
•
Exercise price of call options that it is reasonably certain that management will exercise  
Payments subject to an extension option that it is reasonably certain that the Group will exercise  
Penalty related to a termination option unless it is reasonably certain that the Group will not exercise  
the option.  
The lease liabilities is measured at amortized cost according to the effective interest method. The lease  
liabilities is recalculated when the underlying contractual cash flows change due to changes in an index or an  
interest rate if the Group’s estimate of a residual value guarantee changes or if the Group changes its assessment  
of whether call options, extension options or termination option can reasonably be expected to be exercised.  
On initial recognition, the leased asset is measured at cost, corresponding to the value of the lease liabilities  
adjusted for prepaid lease payments plus directly related costs and estimated costs for demolition, repairs or  
the like and less discounts or other types of incentive payments received from the lessor.  
Subsequently, the asset is measured at cost less accumulated depreciations and impairment losses. The leased  
asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and the useful life of the leased asset. Depreciations  
changes are recognized on a straight-line bass in the income statement.  
The leased asset is adjusted for changes to the lease liabilities due to changes to the term of the lease or changes  
to the cash flows of the lease concurrently with changes to an index or an interest rate.  
Leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term, which is:  
Property  
Cars  
10-15 years  
3-5 years  
3-5 years  
Other assets  
The Group presents the leased asset and the lease liabilities separately in the balance sheet.  
The Group has chosen not to recognize leased assets of a low value and short-term leases in the balance sheet.  
Instead related payments are recognized on a straight-line basis in the income statement.  
The related lease liability is disclosed in the current and non-current other liabilities in the financial statement.

Inventories  
Inventories are measured at the lower of the cost using the FIFO method and net realizable value. Costs consists  
of purchase price. Cost of manufactured goods and work in progress consists of costs of raw materials,  
consumables, direct labor costs and indirect productions costs.  
Indirect production costs comprise indirect materials and labor costs, costs of maintenance, of depreciations  
on and impairment losses relating to machinery, factory buildings and equipment applied for the manufacturing  
process as well as costs of factory administration and management. Financing costs are not included.  
The net realizable value of inventories is calculated as the estimated selling price less completion costs and  
costs incurred to execute sale.  
Receivables  
Receivables are measured at amortized cost, usually equaling nominal value less write-downs for bad and  
doubtful debts.  
Contract work in progress  
Contract work in progress is measured at the selling price of the work carried out at the balance sheet date.  
The selling price is measured based on the stage of completion and the total estimated income from the  
individual contracts in progress. Usually, the stage of completion is determined as the ratio of actual to total  
budgeted consumption of cost. For some projects where the consumption of resources cannot be applied as a  
basis, the ratio between completed and total sub activities of the individual projects has been applied.  
If the selling price of a contract work in progress cannot be made up reliably, it is measured at the lower of  
cost incurred and net realizable value.  
Each contract work in progress is recognized in the balance sheet under receivables or liabilities other than  
provisions, depending on whether the net value, calculated as the selling price less prepayment received, is  
positive or negative.  
Cost of sales work and of securing contracts as well as financing costs are recognized in the income statement  
as incurred.  
Prepayments  
Prepayments comprise incurred costs relating to subsequent financial years. Prepayments are measured at  
costs.  
 
Tresu Investment Holding A/S

Notes to consolidated financial statements  
Asset held for sale  
Non-current assets, or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities, are classified as held-for-sale if it  
highly probable that they will be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use.  
Such assets, or disposals groups, are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs  
to sale. Any impairment loss on a disposal group is allocated first to goodwill, and then to the remaining assets  
and liabilities on a pro rata basis, except that no loss is allocated to inventories, financial assets, deferred tax  
assets, employee benefit assets or investment property, which continue to be measured in accordance with  
Group´s other accounting policies. Impairment losses on initial classifications held-for-sales or held-for-  
distribution and subsequent gains and losses on re-measurement are recognized in profit or loss.  
On classified as held-for-sale, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are no longer amortized or  
depreciated, and any equity-accounted investee is no longer equity accounted.  
Non-current assets classified as held-for-sale and the assets of a disposal group classified as held-for-sale are  
presented separately from the other assets in the balance sheet. The liabilities of disposal group classified as  
held-for-sale are presented separately from other liabilities in the balance sheet.  
Other provisions  
Other provisions comprise anticipated cost of non-recourse guarantee commitments, loss on contract work in  
progress, decided and published restructurings, etc.  
Other provisions are recognized and measured as the best estimate of the expenses required to settle the  
liabilities at the balance sheet date. Provisions that are estimated to mature more than one year after the balance  
sheet date are measured at their discounted value.  
Once it is likely that total costs will exceed total income from a contract in progress, provision is made for the  
total loss estimated to result from the relevant contract.

Notes to consolidated financial statements  
Liabilities  
Corporate bonds and bank debt are recognized at the time of borrowing at fair value less transaction costs  
incurred, equivalent to the proceeds received. Subsequently, corporate bonds and bank debt are recognized at  
amortized cost equal to the capitalized value using the effective interest method to the effect that the difference  
between the proceeds and nominal amount is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income over the  
term of the loan.  
If corporate bonds are redeemed, this is done at fair value and any gain or loss is recognized through the income  
statement.  
Other liabilities including debt to suppliers as well as other payables are measured at amortized cost which  
usually correspond to nominal value.  
Lease liabilities  
Lease liabilities relating to assets held under leases are recognized in the balance sheet as liabilities other than  
provisions, and at the time of inception of the lease, measured at the present value of future lease payments.  
Subsequent to initial recognition, lease liabilities are measured at amortized costs.  
The difference between present value and nominal amount of the lease payment is recognized in the income  
statement as financial expense over term of the leases.  
Contract liabilities  
Prepayments received from customers comprise amounts from customers prior to recognition of revenue, cf.  
section on contract work in progress.  
Prepayments received from customers  
Prepayments received from customers comprise amounts received from customers prior to delivery of the  
goods agreed or completion of the service agreed.  
Cash flow statement  
The cash flow statement shows cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as well as cash  
and cash equivalents at the beginning and the end of the financial year.  
The cash flow from acquisition and disposal of entities comprises the cash consideration paid/received net of  
cash and cash equivalents acquired /disposed of with the entities.  
Cash flows from operating activities are presented using the indirect method and calculated as the operating  
profit/loss adjusted for non-cash operating items, working capital changes and income taxes paid.  
Cash flows from investing activities comprise payments in connection with acquisition and divestment of  
subsidiaries, activities and fixed asset investment as well as purchase, development, improvement and sale etc.  
of intangible assets and property, plant equipment, including acquisition of assets held under leases.

Notes to parent financial statement  
1. Accounting policies and significant accounting policies  
The Annual Report of Tresu Investment Holding A/S, a Danish company, has been prepared in accordance  
with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as adopted by the EU, and additional Danish  
requirements applicable to reporting class D enterprises, including the statutory order on adoption of IFRS  
issued pursuant to the Danish Financial Statements Act.  
The Parent Company basically uses the same accounting policies as the Group. The cases where the Parent  
Company´s accounting policies differ from the Group are described below. For detailed description of the  
parent company´s use accounting policies are referred to note 35 of the consolidated financial statements.  
Instances where the parent company´s accounting policies differ from the Group  
Investment in group subsidiaries are measured at cost. If the acquisition cost exceeds the investments  
recoverable value, an impairment loss is recognized.  
2. Use of estimates and judgement  
Recoverable amounts for capital participation in subsidiaries  
On indication that the book value (cost) of investments in subsidiaries has fallen, any impairment requirement  
is determined based on the specification of the capital value of the subsidiary in question, cf. the section on  
Recoverable amount of Goodwill in the Consolidated financial statement note 2 and the section on impairment  
loss in note 35 of the Consolidated financial statements.  
If dividends are distributed for more than the subsidiary´s total income during the period in which dividends  
are to be distributed, this is considered an indication of impairment loss. If an impairment of goodwill is  
recognized in the consolidated financial statements which can be attributed to a subsidiary, this is also  
considered as an indication of impairment loss.  
Other significant estimates and judgement  
For a description of other significant estimates and judgements refer to note 2 of the consolidated financial  
statement.

Since the issue in September 2017, the bonds have been adjusted with the exchange rate EUR/DKK at the end  
of the year. Level 2 from the fair value hierarchy has been used.  
We have successfully renegotiated the expiration date of the corporate bonds with all stakeholders in 2021.  
Part of the bonds amounting to EUR12.1m have been cancelled in connection with the renegotiation process  
lowering the overall nominal value of corporate bonds.

The Corporate bonds are issued in EUR and the principal amount is subject to exchange rate fluctuations  
between the Company´s functional currency (DKK) and EUR. A 1% change in the EUR rate at 31st December  
2021 would have affected comprehensive income and equity by approximately DKK 4,4m. The sensitivity  
analysis shows the difference between the 31st December 2021 fair value calculated for the Group´s assets and  
liabilities denominated in EUR.

Interest rate risks  
Both corporate bonds and bank debt has a variable interest rate, and therefore the company has a significant  
interest rate risk. Other payables have a short repayment profile, and the company only has a low interest rate  
risk.
