INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Shareholders of FOM Technologies A/S
Opinion
We have audited the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statements of FOM Technologies
A/S for the financial year 1 January - 31 December 2023, which comprise income statement, total income statement, balance
sheet, statement of changes in equity, cash flow statement and notes including material accounting policy information for both
the Group and the Parent Company. The Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company 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.
In our opinion, the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statements give a true and fair view of
the financial position of the Group and the Parent Company at 31 December 2023, and of the results of the Group and Parent
Company operations and cash flows for the financial year 1 January - 31 December 2023 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 Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statementssection
of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’
International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code),
together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Denmark, and we have
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Statement on Management Commentary
Management is responsible for Management Commentary.
Our opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statements does not cover
Management Commentary, and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial Statements, our
responsibility is to read Management Commentary and, in doing so, consider whether Management Commentary is materially
inconsistent with the Consolidated Financial Statements or the Parent Company Financial Statements or our knowledge obtained
during the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
Moreover, it is our responsibility to consider whether Management Commentary provides the information required under the
Danish Financial Statements Act.
Based on the work we have performed, we conclude that Management Commentary 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 of Management Commentary.
Management’s Responsibilities for the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company 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 the IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU and additional
requirements in the Danish Financial Statements Act, and for such internal control as Management determines is necessary to
enable the preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements and Parent Company Financial Statements that are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company 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 in preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements
and the Parent Company Financial Statements unless Management either intends to liquidate the Group or the Company or to
cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT continued
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company Financial
Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent
Company 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
Consolidated Financial Statements and Parent Company Financial Statements.
As part of an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark, we exercise
professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent
Company 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
Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent Company 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 Consolidated Financial
Statements and the Parent Company 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 Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and contents of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Parent
Company Financial Statements, including the disclosures, and whether the Consolidated Financial Statements and the
Parent Company 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.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
Primary activities, products, and markets
The primary activities of FOM Technologies A/S are design, development and sale of advanced machinery and
equipment for material production and research. The company is a leading global supplier of lab- and pilot-scale
slot-die coating tools for advanced material R&D and up-scaling to commercial production. The company provides
precise, flexible, user-friendly equipment to some of the biggest companies and most prestigious universities and
research institutions within energy harvesting (solar) and energy storage (batteries and fuel cells) and other smart
surface technologies. Our mission is to work closely with our customers to deliver high quality, cutting-edge
solutions to coat a bright and sustainable future together.
While the company designs and develops its own products, the company does not currently manufacture its own
products. The company’s technical and mechanical solutions are manufactured and bought through sub-suppliers
at the average distance of 1-2 hours of transport time from Copenhagen (location in Scandinavia and in the
Northern part of Europe.)
The company’s main markets are: North America (US + Canada), EU and Asia.
FOM Technologies has since 2020 been a publicly traded company. The company was listed on the Nasdaq First
North Growth Market in June 2020 (ticker code: FOM).
Development in the company's activities and financial conditions
For the financial year 2023, FOM Technologies delivers a record result that is the best since the company's
establishment. The total income has increased more than 46% from last year, combined with a positive EBITDA
and bottom line. The strong growth in performance and the EBITDA level should be seen in the light of a high
investment level as the company throughout 2023 has doubled the number of FTEs (Full Time Employees),
moved to a new head quarter, and established a sales and business development platform in the US subsidiary
- FOM Technologies Inc. The revenue is significantly above the initial first guidance for year 2023 made in Dec.
2022.
FOM Technologies' products are world-class in several areas in relation to precision and accuracy. It requires
expensive and rare components within automation as well as products with extremely low tolerances. During
2023 the company has focused on expanding the supply chain, procurement processes and the growing
network of Scandinavian and European suppliers to be able to deliver solutions to all our global customers with
very short lead times throughout the year.
The company has continued its aggressive investment in innovation, development of new products,
establishment of strategic partnerships, building a global distribution network and scaling the number of
employees. All of the company's organizational departments Finance, HR, Adm. Sales, Production, S&L (Science
& Learning), SLM (Service Lifecycle Management) as well as PR/Marketing, have added new personnel
resources during 2023. Furthermore, our first employee in our US subsidiary, FOM Technologies Inc., was hired.
The company expects to continue the development of the organisation in 2024, but at a somewhat slower pace.
2023 has offered many positive elements for the company ranging from awarded contracts from some of the
world's most prestigious universities and research institutions to landing significant orders from leading
corporate customers within the fuel-cell and battery segment. The company sees a firm and steady trend
towards an increased ratio of corporate customers compared to academic (universities and research institution)
customers.
On the research side, 2023 has also been extraordinary. FOM Technologies is increasingly being offered
participation in European research consortia with participation from leading academic institutions from the
continent, both within research into future solar cell and battery technology. At present FOM Technologies is
participating in 5 R/D projects, where the EU or Danish funding organizations has allocated funding to R/D
projects. The duration of these projects runs on average over a 3-year period.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY continued
When FOM Technologies entered the Nasdaq First North Growth Market in the summer of 2020, the company
raised the smallest amount that any company has ever raised in an IPO. Our rationale was to ask investors to
invest a small amount in the company, then create results and slowly build investors' trust in the company and
management, before asking again for additional growth capital. Due to the prospect of sharply increasing
activity at the beginning of 2022, the board of directors and executive management decided that the time was
right to raise additional growth capital. In Q2 2022, the company completed a further capital raise to ensure a
solid base for further growth leading to record results in 2022. The 2020 IPO as well as the 2022 capital injection
were exclusively based on private investors and individuals to increase the numbers of shareholders and the
accumulating distribution of shares. Looking into our 3-year strategy plan for 2024, 2025 and 2026 the company
decided in H2 2023 to raise additional growth capital. This time we managed to attract funding from some of
the largest institutional investors in Scandinavia as ATP and Bank Invest among others invested more than 43
mio. DKK in the company. At FOM Technologies, we remain proud of the achievement and that recognized and
experienced institutional investors have chosen to join our growth journey. The funds raised will be used in
three main areas. The overall organization, including the sales office in the USA, can now be further
strengthened and there will be an opportunity to build a larger inventory, so that the large demand from both
commercial customers and research institutions can be delivered more quickly. At the same time, FOM
Technologies will be able to develop new technology and solutions that can meet future customer needs and
secure and expand the company's position in the market. At the request of the new investors, and with the full
support of the board of directors and executive management, the company has decided to postpone our
previously announced listing on the Main Market.
Environmental conditions and ESG reporting
Environmental conditions play a crucial role in the success and sustainability of a scaling company. Firstly,
these conditions encompass factors like climate, geography, and natural resources, which can directly impact
operational efficiency and costs. Secondly, environmental conditions also include the socio-political
landscape, such as government policies, regulations, and societal attitudes towards sustainability.
Compliance with environmental regulations not only ensures legal standing but also fosters positive public
perception and long-term viability. Moreover, a scaling company must assess environmental risks and
opportunities to anticipate market shifts and innovate accordingly.
Embracing eco-friendly practices not only reduces negative impacts but also opens doors to new markets
and investors increasingly prioritizing sustainability. Furthermore, maintaining a strong commitment to
environmental stewardship can attract top talent, foster employee morale, and enhance brand reputation.
Customers today are more conscious of environmental issues, preferring to support companies aligned with
their values. Navigating and adapting to environmental conditions is integral for a scaling company to
mitigate risks, seize opportunities, and build a resilient business model that thrives amidst changing
ecological and societal landscapes.
Together with the Annual Report 2023, FOM Technologies will publish the company’s first “ESG report”.
The ESG Report is an expansion and continuation of the publication issued in Q1 2023 named “ESG
Initiatives”. With this publication in 2022, we wanted to draw the first basic outlines within the ESG area
and create the platform and framework for all future ESG reports published along with the annual financial
report. We are therefore proud to publish our first ESG Report this year. The ESG report for 2023 contains
the statement of social responsibility according to ÅRL 99 a. The report can be read and downloaded using
this link:

Knowledge, expertise, and resources
In a scale-up company, having the best knowledge, expertise, and resources is paramount for success on
multiple fronts. Firstly, possessing top-notch knowledge allows the company to make informed decisions,
anticipate market trends, and stay ahead of competitors. Expertise in relevant domains ensures efficient
execution of strategies and the ability to innovate effectively, driving growth and adaptation in dynamic
markets. Moreover, access to academic resources, with technological insights provides the necessary
competences to interact with our customers, scale operations and expand market reach that support long-
term sustainability and competitiveness.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY continued
Attracting and retaining top talent is often contingent on the company's reputation for expertise and access
to innovative resources. A skilled workforce is essential for driving innovation, fostering creativity, and
delivering high-quality products or services that meet customer demands and exceed expectations.
Furthermore, having the best knowledge, expertise, and resources installs confidence among stakeholders,
including investors, partners, and customers. This confidence translates into increased support, investment,
and loyalty, further fuelling the company's growth trajectory and market position. FOM Technologies has
built a science team consisting of no less than 6 Ph.Ds to serve as the cornerstone of success, enabling agility,
innovation, resilience, and competitive advantage in a rapidly evolving business landscape.
Research- and Development activities
Our Research and Development (R&D) activities are the driving force behind our innovation and growth
strategy. With our dedicated team of experts, we continually explore new technologies, methodologies, and
market trends to stay at the forefront of our industry. Our R&D efforts focus not only on improving existing
products and services but also identifying new opportunities for expansion and differentiation. Through
rigorous experimentation, prototyping, and testing, we refine our ideas and concepts, ensuring that only the
most promising innovations move forward to implementation. Collaboration with external partners,
academic institutions, and industry leaders enriches our R&D ecosystem, providing diverse perspectives and
access to specialized knowledge. We prioritize sustainability and ethical considerations in our R&D
endeavors, seeking solutions that not only drive business success but also contribute positively to society
and the environment. Continuous learning and adaptation are central to our R&D culture, allowing us to
quickly respond to market shifts and emerging challenges. Overall, our R&D activities serve as a catalyst for
driving long-term value creation, fostering a culture of innovation, and maintaining our competitive edge in
an ever-evolving landscape. For 2023 FOM Technologies spent 1% of our revenue on Research &
Development activities.
New headquarter
Since 2019, the company has had its domicile in leased premises at Islands Brygge (Copenhagen). By the end
of 2022, the company had outgrown the physical premises of that lease. With no options to expand, the
company leased a new headquarters at Kastrup (Copenhagen) for the company with a larger and newly
renovated physical space, workshop, and showroom supporting the future journey of FOM Technologies in
the best way possible. The company moved into the new head quarter in Q2 2023.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY continued
Conclusion
The year 2023 started with a strong pipeline as mentioned in the 2022 Annual Report. The revenue of DKK
78,2 million is significantly above the initial guidance published of 55-60 million. If the actual result is compared
to the lowest range of the initial guidance, the revenue is +23 million higher than the 55 million revenue
guidance and the actual EBITDA result of 3,5 million is +1,5 million better than the 2 million EBITDA guidance.
Guidance for 2023
(in 2022 Annual Report)
Actual result for 2023
Revenue 55-60 million 78 million + 23 million
EBITDA 2-5 million 3,5million +1,5 million
In addition to that, the company succeeded in raising capital during the last end of the year from some of the
largest institutional investors in Scandinavia, which has further strengthened the capital base. Based on this
the management considers the year’s growth, results, and the company’s development in general to be very
satisfactory.
EXPECTATIONS TO 2024
Postponement of a Nasdaq Main Market – Small Cap listing
As previously announced, FOM Technologies has postponed the ambition to seek admission to be listed on
the Nasdaq Main Market Small Cap. The ambition is to continue the growth of the company to a higher
revenue level before applying for admission to a Nasdaq Main Market listing. All other formal requirements
for seeking admission to the Nasdaq Main Market – Small Cap, like free float ratio, numbers of shareholders
and financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standard are in place.
The expected future development – Commercial Dimension
2024 will be an extraordinary investment year for the company. With a strong capital injection from external
investors in late Q4 2023, the direction is set for organizational ramping up in our US subsidiary FOM Technologies
Inc., plus strong R/D and innovation investment in new and more advanced products targeting the corporate
production segment. The company is very positive about this segment based on previous and ongoing dialogues
with current and future potential customers. The guidance for the 2024 Revenue and EBITDA has been estimated
to the best of our abilities taking into consideration the planned investment level, including risks and uncertainties
from our risk management assessment discussed in the following chapter.
The expected future development – Liquidity Dimension
The cash reserve as of year-end was significantly strong, due to the Q4 2023 share capital expansion, hence the
company’s equity capital is historically strong. Furthermore, the company has no material debt. Thus, the liquidity
development looks strong and stable.
The company's guidance for 2024 is:
Total income:
In the range of DKK 65 million to DKK 80 million
EBITDA:
In the range of DKK - 8 million to DKK 2 million
The guidance is a result of the significant investments expected as well as the general uncertainties in the global
economy.
RISK MANAGEMENT
Ongoing monitoring of risks and risk management play a central role in FOM Technologies, where the board
of directors, the executive management and the group management strive to ensure that the company’s risks
are properly identified, continuously monitored, and satisfactorily mitigated. There are defined policies and
procedures in place which ensure effective management of identified risks.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY continued
RISK MANAGEMENT
continued
FOM Technologies’ business entails commercial and financial risks, which are also affected by changes in the
outside world including the war in Ukraine, inflation, interest rates etc. and may have a negative effect on the
company’s future activities and results. FOM Technologies continuously works to identify and quantify these
risks, and where possible, FOM Technologies seeks to address and limit risks. The company’s board,
management and group management continuously review the business risks and draw up contingency plans
that can mitigate identified risks. The board has overall responsibility for the group’s risk management and
internal controls, including compliance with relevant legislation and other regulations. The board monitors
the overall strategic risk exposure and the individual risk factors associated with FOM Technologies’ activities
on an ongoing basis. The board adopts guidelines for the central risk areas, follows developments and ensures
the presence of plans for the management of the individual risk factors, including commercial and financial
risks. FOM Technologies’ finance, compliance, and accounting function, which reports to the company’s CFO,
is responsible for promoting and following up on risk-mitigating activities for the most significant risks in
accordance with the decisions and instructions of the board and the executive management. The most
significant identified risks are described below. There is no priority order.
Commercial risks
Market conditions
The general development in the outside world, including the war in Ukraine and derivative effects thereof,
have an influence on the development of FOM Technologies’ revenue and profit, just as a downturn in the
economy can affect the demand for the company’s products and solutions in a negative direction. Among
other things, FOM Technologies seeks to counter the general cyclical risks by continuously refining and
developing the company’s products and solutions, so that the market position is improved. This contributes
to solving the customers’ research and production challenges and thereby adds value to the customer, which
makes FOM Technologies less vulnerable to economic changes.
FOM Technologiesmarket share remains modest in relation to the global coating market. Accordingly, we
believe there are good opportunities to create profitable growth even under the current market conditions.
As part of continued focus to reduce the company’s exposure, the company invests in digitalization and in
digital communication globally so that FOM Technologies is better equipped to deal with customer behavior
and demands. FOM Technologies’ digitalization supports our customers’ needs from lead generation to
sales and customer loyalty.
Customer relations
FOM Technologies is a “born global” company and thus serves customers globally on all 6 continents. For the
financial year 2023, the corporate client Novo Energy accounted for more than 10% of the revenue. The
company’s customers are leading universities, research institutions and corporate customers, but FOM
Technologies does not have a high exposure within specific industries.
Suppliers
FOM Technologies seeks to choose good and stable suppliers with the right skills, as the company depends
on the deliveries being of the required quality, technological level, price and on time. The company seeks to
ensure flexibility and safety by maintaining an adequate stock of essential products and by ensuring the
possibility that other suppliers can step in – in connection with a possible delivery stop or postponement of
deliveries.

RISK MANAGEMENT
continued
Insurance conditions
It is FOM Technologiesinsurance policy to cover significant risks where possible, as well as continuously
evaluate new risks and potential hedging opportunities. Insurance conditions and the insurance risks are
assessed annually in collaboration with a Scandinavian insurance adviser. The board reviews the insurance
policies once a year, and these are adjusted as needed. The most significant risks that can be insured relate
to the risk of fire, theft, loss or other material damage to FOM Technologies’ machines and equipment during
production or during transportation to the customer. In addition, the company is insured against damage
during installation at the customers’ premises. The company’s insurance policies also cover liability in a broad
sense, including business and product liability globally.
IT systems
Investing in professional IT systems involves risks but is a necessity to avoid any negative impact on ongoing
operations, unplanned extra costs and reputational damages. FOM Technologies seeks to reduce these risks
continuously through planning and investment. FOM Technologies has throughout 2023 implemented new
IT systems and digitalization of processes. FOM Technologies will continue to exploit the IT systems potential
as well as investigate the market for other IT systems that can contribute to improving procedures and
processes. The company continuously works to improve data security, IT infrastructure and backup solutions,
which includes both customer data and the company's own data. IT security is a central element in the service
of FOM Technologies customers, which is why we work together with leading providers of hosting and
backup solutions. Over several years, the company has improved its IT security systems, which means that
the external IT audit has not found significant areas that need improvement.
Employees
Difficulties in attracting and retaining qualified employees at all levels in the company can be a barrier to
growth and efficient operations. FOM Technologies actively seeks to counter such problems by offering
challenging job content, a market-competitive base salary package, other benefits and incentive schemes to
reward special efforts.
Financial risks
Financial risks consist of currency risk, interest rate risk, fluctuation on raw materials, liquidity risk, credit
risk and use of financial instruments. For a more detailed review of the company’s financial risks, please
refer to note 20.
Currency risks
The group is less exposed to currency fluctuations because of the company’s customers mainly being invoiced
in EUR, which is the same currency in which many of the company’s variable costs are settled. Based in
Denmark, all fixed costs are settled in DKK, which is why DKK is the company’s primary functional currency.
The company’s total currency risk is therefore minimal.
The interest rate level
The company has neither short-term nor long-term interest-bearing debt, which is why the direct impact is
limited.
Raw material level
The company is affected by changes in raw material prices which to a certain extent are transferred to the
customers.

RISK MANAGEMENT
continued
Liquidity risks
It is the group’s policy to ensure strong financial flexibility and thus develop and maintain a strong and
healthy capital structure which supports long-term profitable growth and controlled development in key
figures. The group’s capital resources include liquid funds and unused drawing rights. Since 2019, FOM
Technologies has had a credit facility that has never been used since establishment. The credit facility is
on market terms.
Credit risks
The group’s policy for assuming credit risks means that all major customers, distributors, and significant
suppliers are credit assessed and credit insured before entering a contract and thereafter on an ongoing
basis. The management of the credit risk is based on cooperation with one of the world’s largest credit
insurance companies. The group does not have significant risks regarding individual customers, business
partners, distributors and significant suppliers and the company has not written off receivables from
customers. The company has not had losses on debtors since 2016.
Financial instruments
FOM Technologies does not use financial instruments that can be attributed to hedging the financial risks.
In general, the least complicated risk hedging method is chosen. The group does not make speculative
dispositions.
Control and risk management activities in connection with financial reporting
Risk management in relation to the financial reporting is designed to limit the risk of material errors and
omissions, and can only create reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that material errors and improper
use of assets, losses and/or material errors will occur. The company reports monthly financial data as well as
comments regarding the economic and business development to the senior management, board of
executives and board of directors. The control and risk management activities consist of the policies and
procedures that have been outlined to make sure the Group strategy and KPI’s can be met. These control
activities take place in the entire organization in all functions and include various activities and controls such
as segregation of duties, two-level approval workflow for all costs held, reconciliations and compliance model
for approval of all sales transactions. Monthly controlling of the reported accounting information is also
carried out for all companies in the group and shared with the board of executives and senior management.
The governance structure for the financial routines, including clarification of areas of responsibility for the
individual management layers as well as the financial organization, is regulated using business procedures
that ensure uniform and structured management reporting. The policies and procedures are continuously
strengthened, just as the board of directors carries out ongoing monitoring and control. The board and the
company’s management regularly review policies and procedures.
The business and financial development as well as risks are discussed at group management meetings
weekly. Decisions with a view to reducing and/or eliminating risks are based on an assessment of materiality
and cost/benefit analyses. There are internal requirements for proper safeguarding of assets, ongoing
financial reconciliations, and accounting review of monthly accounts. Each quarter, the accounts are sent to
the board, and a review of the quarterly accounts is carried out at board meetings. The board of directors
and the executive board assess significant and internal risks on an ongoing basis in connection with the
group’s activities and the possible influence on the financial reporting process. The board conducts at least
one annual assessment of the group’s organizational structure and staffing in significant areas, including
areas in connection with the financial reporting process, including IT and tax. The auditor appointed by the
general meeting reports any significant weaknesses in the group’s internal control systems in connection
with the financial reporting process in the audit report to the board of directors.
Minor matters and proposals for improvements are reported to the executive board. The auditor participates
at least once a year in the company’s board meetings and receives both quarterly reporting and board
material.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Committee for Good Corporate Governance
FOM Technologies emphasizes running a business and setting up its management systems in accordance
with good corporate governance, as we are convinced that this is a prerequisite for long-term value creation
and the establishment of credibility in relation to customers, employees, shareholders, and other
stakeholders. The recommendations regarding good corporate governance, applicable laws and regulations
in the area, best practice and internal rules set the framework for FOM Technologies' corporate governance.
Interaction with shareholders and other stakeholders
FOM Technologies' management seeks to ensure good communication and 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 takes place by sending out
annual reports and interim reports as well as other announcements from the company and at meetings with
investors, analysts, and the press.
The general meeting is FOM Technologies' highest decision-making authority, and the board emphasizes that
the shareholders receive thorough information about the matters decided on at the general meeting. Notice
of the general meeting is published and sent to the registered shareholders at least 14 days before the
meeting. According to the articles of association, all shareholders have the right to participate in and vote at
the general meeting. Shareholders also have the option of giving a power of attorney to the board or others
for each item on the agenda. The general meeting gives the shareholders the opportunity to ask questions
to the board and management, just as shareholders can make proposals that they wish to be dealt with at
the general meeting.
The Board of Directors work
The board is responsible for FOM Technologies' overall management and deals with all matters relating to
FOM Technologies' overall development, including goals and strategies, organisation, budgets, risk
conditions, proposals for mergers, the purchase and sale of companies as well as major development and
investment projects. The general guidelines for the board's work are laid down in rules of procedure, which
are reviewed at least once a year and adapted as necessary. The rules of procedure contain, among other
things, procedures for the executive board's reporting, the board's working method and a description of the
chairman's tasks and areas of responsibility.
Due to the size of the company, the board of directors of FOM Technologies has decided to collectively
undertake the tasks of the audit committee and has also chosen not to set up independent nomination and
remuneration committees. In the financial 2023, the board has held seven board meetings, including
telephone board meetings. In addition, the board has regularly held meetings with the company's
management. The management participates in all board meetings to ensure a direct dialogue, so that the
board is as well informed as possible about the company's operations.
A self-evaluation is carried out on an ongoing basis with a view to improving the work of the board and the
executive board and thereby strengthening the basis for the company's further development. The evaluation
includes, among other things, an assessment of the board's and the executive board's efforts, cooperation
and competences, as well as the quality of the reporting from the executive board to the board. The latest
formal evaluation took place in 2023. The evaluation process is overseen by the chairman of the board.
The composition of the board
When composing the board, emphasis is placed on the members possessing the competences necessary for
the continued development of the company. The board annually assesses its composition, including that the
board's competencies and diversity overall match the company's activities and planned initiatives.
Candidates for the board are nominated for election at the general meeting with the board's written
justification and a description of the recruitment criteria.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY continued
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE continued
FOM Technologies' board currently consists of three members, all of whom are elected by the general meeting.
All board members, except for the chairman of the board of directors, are considered independent, cf. the
recommendations on good corporate governance from the Committee for Good Corporate Governance. The
chairman of the board of directors is partner in Bech-Bruun Advokatpartnerselskab. Bech-Bruun
Advokatpartnerselskab regularly assists the company in legal matters. For a detailed competence overview of
the individual board members please visit the company website.
Executive Board
The management is appointed by the board. The management is responsible for the day-to-day operations
of the company, including the company's activity and operational development and results, as well as for
implementing the company's business strategy. The executive board consists of the chief executive officer
(CEO) and the chief innovation officer (CIO) who is also the founder of the company. The board's delegation
of responsibility to the executive board is defined in the board's rules of procedure. For a detailed
competence overview of the executive board, please visit the company website.
Remuneration for the board and management.
The total fee for the board amounted to DKK 240.000 in 2023. Of this, the chairman of the board received a
fee of DKK 120.000, while the other members of the board received DKK 60.000 each. The board is not

In 2023, the remuneration to the executive board amounted to approximately DKK 3.8 million. The
management's terms of resignation are considered to be in accordance with the usual standard for positions
of this nature and do not entail special obligations for the company.
Diversity
It is the board's aim to promote diversity in the company, including achieving reasonable representation of
both genders in both the board and the senior management and among the staff based on a desire to
strengthen the company's versatility, overall competences and create better decision-making processes. It is
the board's aim that its members complement each other as best as possible in terms of age, background,
nationality, gender, etc. with a view to ensuring a competent and versatile contribution to the board's work
in FOM Technologies. However, the selection of candidates will always be based on an assessment of the
individual candidates' competencies, their match with the needs of FOM Technologies and contribution to
the board's overall effectiveness.
The three board members in FOM Technologies elected by the general meeting consist of one man and two
women. Now and in the future, the board will strive to achieve a sensible distribution of men and women on
the board. The management at FOM Technologies, consisting of the executive board and group
management, is currently composed of four men and one woman. When recruiting new managers, emphasis
is placed on identifying candidates of both sexes. When employed at FOM Technologies, diversity is sought
throughout the organization in terms of age, background, skills, ethnicity, nationality and gender. In 2020, a
goal was stated over the next five years to increase the proportion of women in the company to min. 25%.
This goal has been achieved at 30% by year end.
For further elaboration on the Groups policy on diversity, please refer to the ESG report. The ESG report for
2023 can be read and downloaded using this link:

Note 1 Accounting policies
This note provides a list of the significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated
financial statements to the extent they have not already been disclosed in the other notes above. These policies
have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are
for the Group consisting of FOM Technologies A/S and its subsidiaries.
1.1. Basis of preparation
The Group's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting
Standards as adopted by the EU and additional Danish disclosure requirements for the financial statements of
reporting class B enterprises in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act. The Group has
furthermore, voluntarily opted for an additional selection according to accounting class C.
The financial statements are presented in Danish kroner (DKK), which is FOM Technologies A/S’ (the Parent
company) functional currency. Unless otherwise stated, the amounts presented in the financial statements are not
rounded. The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and in accordance with the
historical cost convention, except where IFRS explicitly requires use of other values.
1.2. Basis of consolidation
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity where the Group is
exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those
returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on
which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. The
acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business combinations by the Group.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are
eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the
transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency
with the policies adopted by the group.
Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated
statement of profit or loss, statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and balance sheet
respectively.
1.3. New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
Certain new accounting standards, amendments to accounting standards and interpretations have been
published that are not mandatory for 31 December 2023 reporting periods and have not been early adopted by
the Group. These standards, amendments or interpretations are not expected to have a material impact on the
Group in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.
1.4. Summary of material accounting policy information
The following are the material accounting policies applied by the Group in preparing its consolidated
financial statements.

Accounting policies continued
Foreign currency translation
The functional currency is DKK and transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are
considered transactions in foreign currency. On initial recognition, transactions denominated in foreign currencies
are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rates at the transaction date. Foreign exchange rate
adjustments arising between the transaction date and at the date of payment are recognized in the income
statement under financial income or financial expenses. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated to the year-end exchange rates on the reporting date. The difference between the
exchange rates at the reporting date and at the date of transaction or the exchange rate in the latest financial
statements is recognized in the income statement under financial income or financial expenses.
The results and financial position of foreign operations that have a functional currency different from the
presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of
that balance sheet
income and expenses for each statement of profit or loss and statement of comprehensive income are
translated at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative
effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated
at the dates of the transactions), and
all resulting exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income
Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the
chief operating decision maker (CODM).
Executive Management assesses the financial performance and position of the group and makes strategic
decisions. Executive Management has been identified as being the CODM.
Cash flow statement
The cash flow statement is presented using the indirect method and shows cash flows from operating,
investment, and financing activities for the year as well as cash and cash equivalents at the beginning and end
of the financial year.
Cash flows from operating activities are calculated based on operating profit/loss, adjusted for the cash flow
effect of non-cash operating items, working capital changes, financial expenses paid and income tax paid.
Cash flows from investment activities comprise payments in connection with the acquisition and sale of non-
current intangible assets, property, plant, and equipment as well as financial assets. Cash flows from financing
activities comprise payments arising from changes in the size or composition of the share capital.
Income statement: Revenue
Sale of standardized machinery and equipment
Revenue related to the sale of standardized machinery and equipment is recognized at a point in time. This is
usually when the customer has received the machinery. However, if a contract includes a customer acceptance
clause, revenue is not recognized before the customer acceptance is received. Payments follow a payment
schedule, for which a portion is paid upfront.
Sale of customized machinery and equipment
Revenue related to the sale of customized machinery is recognized over time using a cost-to-cost measure.
Revenue is recognized over time because the machinery being transferred is highly specialized to the customer’s
specifications (that is, the machinery has no alternative use).
For contracts for customized machinery, the Group always has an enforceable right to payment for performance
completed to date. The consideration is paid in accordance with a contract specific payment schedule, for which
a portion is paid upfront.
Page 27 of 62
1. Accounting policies continued
If the goods and services rendered by the Group exceed the payment, a contract asset is recognised. If the
payments exceed the goods and services rendered, a contract liability is recognised
Refer to note 4 on elaboration of the accounting policies related to the recognition of revenue from contracts with
customers.
Income statement: Other operating income
Other operating income includes items of a secondary nature in relation to the primary activity of the company,
including profit on sale of fixed assets and public grants and other grants for research and development projects.
Income from grants is recognised at fair value when there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be
received, and the Group will comply with all attached conditions. It is recognised on a systematic basis over the
periods that the related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed.
Income statement: Cost of goods sold
Cost of goods sold comprises goods consumed in the financial year measured at cost, adjusted for ordinary
inventory write downs and costs incurred to achieve the years revenue.
Income statement: External expenses
External expenses comprise selling costs, facility costs, administrative expenses and research and development
costs.
Income statement: Staff costs
Staff costs include wages and salaries including holiday pay and pensions and other social security costs etc. to
the Company´s employees. Staff costs are reduced with payments received from public authorities.
Staff costs include sharebased payments. Executive management and key employees have been granted
warrants. The warrants are
measured at fair value at the grant date and are recognised as an expense in staff
costs over the vesting period. Expenses are set off against equity. The fair value of the warrants is measured using
the Black Scholes valuation
method. The calculation considers the terms and conditions under which the
warrants are granted. Fair value is not subsequently remeasured. If subsequent modifications to a warrant
program increase the value of the warrants granted, measured before and after modification, the increase is
recognised as an expense. If
modification occurs before the vesting period, the increase in value is recognised as
an expense over the period
for services to be received. If modification occurs after the vesting date, the
increased value is recognised as an expense immediately. Consideration received for warrants sold are
recognised directly in equity.
Income statement: Financial income and expenses
Financial income and expenses is recognised with amounts concerning the financial year. Financial items
comprise interest, realised and unrealised exchange gains and losses as well as interest surcharge and interest
reimbursements under the Danish Tax Prepayment Scheme.
Income statement: Tax on profit or loss for the year income taxes
Tax on profit or loss for the year represents 22% of the booked profit or loss adjusted for non-taxable and
non-deductible items.
Tax on profit or loss for the year consists of the anticipated tax portion of the taxable income for the year
adjusted for the changes for the year in deferred tax. Changes in deferred taxes, due to adjustments of tax
rates are recognised in the income statement. Corporation tax relating to the financial year which has not been
settled at the balance sheet date is to be classified as corporation tax in receivables or liabilities other than
provisions.
The Company is subject to the Danish Tax Prepayment Scheme. Interest reimbursement and interest surcharge
have been recognised in financial income and expenses.

1. Accounting policies continued
Balance sheet assets: Intangible assets
Intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulate amortisation. Cost comprises the acquisition price as
well as costs directly related to the acquisition until the time when the asset is ready to be put into operation.
Assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives:
Acquired licenses: 5 years
Acquired trademarks: 5 years
Acquired software:
3-5 years
Development projects completed: 3-5 years
Development projects that are not completed are measured at cost with zero amortisation. Development
projects in progress consist of the development of new machines. The development projects in progress
essentially consists of costs in the form of external costs directly attributable to the development project.
During the period of development, development projects that are not completed are tested for impairment
annually.
Completed development projects consist of both new developed machines and upgraded versions of existing
machine lines. The development projects completed essentially consists of costs in the form of external costs
directly attributable to the development project.
In the case of sale, the profit/loss is included in the income statement under other operating income and other
operating expenses.
Balance sheet assets: Property, plant, and equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are measured at cost less accumulate amortisation and depreciation. The
basis of amortisation and depreciation is cost less estimated residual value after the end of useful life.
Cost comprises the acquisition price as well as costs directly related to the acquisition until the time when the
asset is ready to be put into operation. The cost price for an asset is divided into separate components, that
are depreciated separately, if the useful life of the individual components is significantly different.
Depreciation is initiated when the assets are ready to be taken into operation. Assets are depreciated on a
straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives with following residual values:
Other fixtures, etc.: 3-5 years
The residual value is zero unless otherwise stated.
Minor purchases with useful lives below one year have been
recognised as an expense in the income statement in external expenses.
Estimated useful lives and residual values are reassessed annually.
In the case of sale, the profit/loss is included in the income statement under other operating income and other
operating expenses.
Balance sheet assets: Impairment of intangible asset and property, plant and equipment
The carrying amount of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment is reviewed annually for indication
of impairment for loss, apart from what is expressed by usual amortisation and depreciation. If this applies,
impairment for loss is made of each asset or group of assets, respectively, to lower recoverable amount.
As recoverable amount, the higher of expected net selling price and net present value is applied. The net
present value is calculated as the present value of the anticipated cash flows from the use of the asset or
the group of assets.
Page 29 of 62
1. Accounting policies continued
Impairment for loss for the year is recognised in the income statement as amortisation, depreciation and
impairment for intangible assets and property, plant, and equipment.
Development projects in progress are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or
more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired.
Balance sheet assets: Right-of use assets
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include
the net present value of the following lease payments:
• fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable
• variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the
commencement date
• amounts expected to be payable by the group under residual value guarantees
• the exercise price of a purchase option if the group is reasonably certain to exercise that option
• payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the group exercising that option.
Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the
liability.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease
period to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.
The Group recognizes right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (i.e., the date the underlying asset is
available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and
adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.
Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:
• the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability
• any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received
• any initial direct costs, and
• restoration costs.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives
of the assets.
Balance sheet assets: Other receivables (fixed assets)
Other receivables recognised under fixed assets comprise loans and rental deposits measured at amortised
cost, which usually corresponds to nominal amount. In events when the carrying amount exceeds the
recoverable amount, impairment for loss is made to such lower value. Impairment for loss for the year is
recognised in the income statement as impairment for loss of financial assets.
Balance sheet assets: Inventories
Inventories are measured at cost according to the FIFO method. In the event of cost exceeding net realisable
value, write-down is made to this lower value.
Cost of goods for resale, finished goods, work-in-progress as well as raw materials and consumables comprises
purchase price plus landing costs.
The net realisable value of inventories is calculated at the amount expected to be generated by sale in the
process of normal operations with deduction of selling expenses and costs of completion. The net realisable
value is determined allowing for marketability, obsolescence, and development in expected sales sum.
Page 30 of 62
1. Accounting policies continued
Balance sheet assets: Receivables
Trade receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional, unless they
contain significant financing components when they are recognised at fair value. They are subsequently
measured at amortised cost less loss allowance. The Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring
expected credit losses which uses a lifetime expected loss.
Balance sheet assets: Cash and cash equivalents
Cash comprises bank deposits.
Balance sheet: Contract work in progress
Contract work in progress has been recognised according to a cost-to-cost method (percentage-of-completion
Method), solely for customer contracts that are of a custom nature and according to which work in progress is
measured at the market value of the work performed. The market value is measured based on the degree of
completion at the balance sheet date and the total anticipated income from each work in progress. Completion
is
calculated as the proportion of the costs incurred in relation to the expected total costs of the individual
work in progress.
When the market value of the individual work in progress cannot be measured reliably, the market value is
recognized at cost or net realizable value, if this value is lower.
Each work in progress is recognised in the balance sheet in receivables or liabilities other than provisions
depending on the net value of the selling price less on account invoicing and prepayments.
Costs in connection with sales work and contracting are recognised in the income statement as incurred. Any
finance costs of financing of work in progress are included in financial expenses.
Balance sheet: Prepayments
Prepayments comprise costs incurred relating to subsequent financial years.
Balance sheet: Equity
Management's proposed dividends for the financial year is disclosed as a separate item in equity.
Warrants are recognized in the financial statements under staff costs and settled
directly in equity as other
capital reserve.
Other capital reserve comprises solely the share-based payments (warrants programme).
Balance sheet Liabilities: Provision for deferred tax
Deferred tax is measured according to the liability method. Provision has been made for deferred tax by 22%
on all temporary differences between carrying amount and tax-based value of assets and liabilities. Deferred
tax is also measured with respect of the planned use of the asset and the settlement of the liability.
The tax-based values of tax losses carried forward are included in the statement of deferred tax if it is
probable that the losses can be utilised.
Balance sheet: Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are recognized when raising the loan at the proceeds received after deduction of
borrowing costs, directly addressed by the loan. In subsequent periods, financial liabilities are measured
at amortized cost equal to the capitalized value using the effective interest rate, so the difference between
the proceeds and the nominal value are recognized in the income statement over the loan period.
Other liabilities other than provisions have been measured at amortised cost which corresponds to nominal
value.
Page 31 of 62
1. Accounting policies continued
Balance sheet: Provisions
Provision comprises the estimated accrued cost of the warranty on the products shipped upon recognition
of the sale of the product. The accrued costs are estimated as 0,75% of the total revenue. With continued
growing revenue the senior management has sought it reasonable to increase the accrued percentage from
0,5% previously to 0,75% of the total revenue for future expenses related to current sales. The general terms
of warranty on standard products is 12 months. The change in the accounting estimate is immaterial.
Balance sheet Liabilities: Deferred income
Deferred income comprises income received relating to subsequent years. It is recognized if a payment is
received, or a payment is due (whichever is earlier) from a customer before the Group transfers the related
deliverables. Deferred income is recognised as revenue when the Group performs under the contract (i.e.,
transfers control of the related performance obligation to the customer).
Related party transactions
Intercompany transactions between the group affiliated companies are on terms equivalent to those that
prevails in arm’s length transactions. The nature of transactions between the parent and its subsidiaries
includes purchase of sales of goods and transfers under finance arrangements.
Note 2 Significant judgments
As part of the preparation of the financial statements, Management makes a number of, accounting estimates
and assumptions as a basis for recognizing and measuring the Groups assets, liabilities, income, and expenses
as well as judgements made in applying the Group’s accounting policies. The estimates, judgements and
assumptions made are based on experience gained and other factors that are considered sensible by
Management in the circumstances, but which are inherently subject to uncertainty and volatility.
The assumptions are always made with a conservative approach to ensure that the level of uncertainty is at a
minimum. Unforeseen events or circumstances may occur, for which reason the actual results may differ from
the estimates and judgements made.
Management considers the following accounting estimates and judgements to be significant in the preparation
of
the financial statements.
Development costs
The Group capitalizes costs for development projects. Initial capitalization of costs is based on management’s
judgement that technological and economic feasibility is confirmed, usually when a product development
project has reached a defined milestone according to an established project management model. In
determining the amounts to be capitalized, Management makes assumptions regarding the expected future
cash generation of the project and the expected period of benefits.
Impairment of non-financial assets
Impairment exists when the carrying value of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount,
which is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use. The fair value less costs of disposal
calculation is based on available data from binding sales transactions, conducted at arm’s length, for similar
assets or observable market prices less incremental costs of disposing of the asset. The assumptions are always
made with a conservative approach to ensure that the level of uncertainty is at a minimum. Unforeseen events or
circumstances may occur, for which reason the actual results may differ from the estimates and judgements
made.
Recognition of revenue related to customized machinery and equipment
The Group sells highly specialized machinery and equipment that is customized to the specific customer’s
request for which revenue is recognized over time. In determining that revenue should be recognized over
time, Management has assessed that the customized machinery has no alternative use (i.e., the customized
machines cannot be readily redirected to another customer).
Page 32 of 62
Note 2 Significant judgments continued
Share-based payments
Estimating fair value for share-based payment programmes requires determination of the most appropriate
valuation model, which depends on the terms and conditions of the grant.
The chosen valuation model requires determination of appropriate inputs to the valuation model including
duration of the share option, volatility, exercise price and risk-free interest rate.
The selection of models and use of appropriate inputs determine the calculation of the fair value for share-
based payment transactions which are disclosed in note 7.
Right of use assets
The determination of the lease term may differ from the contractual lease term and thus affects the amount
recorded for the entity’s lease obligation and related right-of-use asset. If the determined lease term is
longer than the contractual lease term, the larger the lease liability and related right-of-use asset.
In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic
incentive to exercise an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option. Extension options (or
periods after the termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain
to be extended (or not terminated).The Group has determined the lease term as the non-cancellable term
of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to
be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be
exercised. The Group applies judgement in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the option
to renew or terminate the lease.
Note 3 Operating segments
The Group serves one segment, comprising the entire company FOM Technologies A/S, which is inherent to
how the Executive Management considers and operates the Group. The main nature of the business is
development and production of machinery equipment for material research entities worldwide.
The results of the single reporting segment are shown in the statements of comprehensive income of the
Parent company.
Executive Management is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). Executive Management, which is made
up
of the senior leadership across the respective divisions, are responsible for the strategic decision making
and
for the monitoring of the operating results of the single operating segment for the purpose of performance
assessment.
The segment performance is evaluated by the CODM monthly based on profit or loss for the single segment and
is measured consistently with profit or loss in the financial statements of the Group.
The CODM furthermore monitors revenue based on product lines. Refer to note 4 for a disaggregation of
revenue on this basis. The Group has not reported revenue attributed to foreign countries as the costs to
develop this information would be excessive.
Non-current operating assets are all geographically located in Denmark.
Page 33 of 62
Note 4 Revenue from contracts with customers
The Group derives revenue from the transfer of goods and services over time and at a point in time in the
following revenue categories:
Revenue recognized at a point in time:
Revenue recognized over time:
Clients who accounted for more than 10% of the revenue:
Novo Energy (Revenue recognized over time).
The revenue category Machines comprise the sales of machinery and equipment which is the main part of the
Group’s business. The category Additional products comprise the sales of additional products and components
as
well as optional solutions for the machinery and equipment sold. The category Services & other comprise
installation services, support, and service-type warranties.
The Group’s customer contracts may comprise multiple deliverables such as machinery, equipment, support,
training, installation services and service-type warranties. These deliverables represent separate performance
obligations and are accounted as such. The transaction price is always fixed and comprise no variable
consideration. The transaction price is allocated between the performance obligations based on their
standalone selling prices.
The amount of inventory recognized as an expense during the year 2023 amounted to DKK 34.479.294 (2022: DKK
25.612.738).
Revenue related to services is recognized over time. This is because the customer simultaneously receives and
consumes the benefits provided by the Group as the Group performs. In recognizing revenue, Management
applies an input method such as cost incurred, or labour hours expended. Management has determined that
these methods of measuring progress most appropriately reflect the Group’s transfer of control of the
promised services to the customer. Revenue related to service-type warranties are recognized over the
warranty period on a straight-line basis.
For the purposes of recognizing revenue related to machinery and equipment, the Group separates its
customer contracts into two categories:
Sale of standardized machinery and equipment; and
Sale of customized machinery and equipment.

Warrant programme
FOM Technologies A/S has an incentive programme under which warrants are awarded to key employees of FOM
Technologies A/S. After the completion of the public listing in June 2020, employees were offered to participate
in the company’s first Employee Share Scheme (i.e., the warrant programme). FOM Technologies A/S has granted
warrants to key employees during the years 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020. Warrants are granted once annually. The
main terms of the warrant programs are laid out in the company’s Articles of Association, which can be found on
the company’s website at www.fomtechnologies.com.
The warrants programmes are granted with the intention to be a combined incentive and retention tool. If the
employee leaves the company prior to exercising the warrants, the warrants are lost, and the shares cancelled
from the warrant programme. The warrants can only be exercised after a 12-month period and only during
exercise windows (expected to be approx. 18 months after the grant date).

Note 12 Intangible Assets
Development projects
A fundamental and critical component of the Group’s business model is to continuously develop new, and
improving existing, product designs that are utilized by the Group in its offerings to customers. Eligible costs
related to these development projects are capitalized. Any costs related to research activities are expensed as
incurred. Research costs of 456t.DKK are included the external expenses for 2023. For 2022 the amount was also
456t.DKK.
Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable products controlled by
the Group are recognized as intangible assets where the following criteria are met:
it is technically feasible to complete the project so that it will be available for use
Management intends to complete the project and use or sell it
there is an ability to use or sell the outcome of the project
it can be demonstrated how the project will generate probable future economic benefits
adequate technical, financial, and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the
project are available, and
the expenditure attributable to the project during its development can be reliably measured.
Directly attributable costs that are capitalized as part of the project comprise directly attributable costs that can
be measured reliably. Capitalized development costs are
recorded as intangible assets and are amortized from the
point at which the asset is ready
for use. Development projects in progress are not amortised. Rather, they are
tested annually for impairment.
The intangible assets held by the Group increased primarily because of an increase in development projects in
progress.

Note 14 Right of use assets
The Group's leasing activities and how they are accounted for:
During the first half year 2023, the Group entered into a number of lease agreements, involving leasing of office
premises and parking spots. The average lease maturity is 5.5 years but may have extensions options, which includes
the most significant lease agreement (the office premises) which has a maturity of 5.5 years.
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined,
which is generally the case for leases in the Group, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that
the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-
of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security, and conditions.
If a readily observable amortising loan rate is available to the individual lessee (through recent financing or market data)
which has a similar payment profile to the lease, then the Group uses that rate as a starting point to determine the
incremental borrowing rate.
The Group is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index or rate, which are not
included in the lease liability until they take effect. When adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate take
effect, the lease liability is reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset.
Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and all leases of low-value assets are recognized on a
straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less.
The group short-term lease obligation for the previous premises was terminated in 2023 due to the relocation as per
May 1, 2024. The group has a short-term lease agreement for parking spots that are adjacent to the leasehold property
and external storage.

Note 19 Capital Management
The Group manages its capital with the aim to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going
concern and continue to fund its growth and development, while maximizing the return to
shareholders through responsible optimization of the capital structure. With a capital increase
in
2023 cashflow was increased with 44m.DKK. In addition to the capital increase the overall
cashflow has net increased with 3,2m.DKK in spite of heavily investing in the growth of the
Group.
Management reviews the capital structure continually to consider if the current capital
structure is in accordance with the Group’s and shareholders’ interests.
The Group does not enter into any speculative transactions.
Note 20
Financial risk management
As a result of its operations, financing and investments, the group is exposed to financial risks,
including currency-/ interest-/ raw material-/ liquidity-/ credit risks as well as the risk of
financial instruments, which can affect the group's results, assets, liabilities, and equity. The
following describes these risks, how they arise, the group's policy for managing the risks and
the potential consequences for the company. The group's risks are managed centrally in the
group's finance function. The financial management thus focuses solely on managing the
financial risks that are a direct consequence of the group's operations and financing.
Market risk
Foreign exchange risk
The Group’s turnover and earnings are dependent on the prices of raw materials, components
and other production materials and cost. The group is less exposed to currency fluctuations as
a result, of the company's customers being invoiced in EUR, which is the same currency in
which, the majority of the company's variable costs are settled. Based in Denmark, all fixed
costs
are settled in DKK, which is why DKK has been chosen as the company's primary functional
currency. The Group’s total currency risk is therefore minimal. The group does not make
speculative currency trading dispositions.

Debt to credit institutions 301.917 313.403
Total 301.917 313.403
Page 45 of 62
Note 20 Financial risk management
continued
The Group is also exposed to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates through its customer
contracts as the Group enters into contracts with customers where the consideration is
denominated in a foreign currency (i.e., revenue is denominated in a foreign currency). The
Group is primarily exposed to fluctuations in EUR. Due to the fixed DKK/EUR exchange rate
policy, the exposure to foreign currency is considered immaterial.
Interest rates
The Group has neither short-term nor long-term debt, and therefore has no interest-bearing
debt. Thus, it is only the derived effect on society and the desire to invest globally where
changed interest levels have a macroeconomic impact on the Group’s sales. As the Group does
not incur debt, there is no hedging of interest rate risk apart from normal liquidity netting of
operating flow.
Credit risk
As a result of the group's operations, where the majority of sales are made by receiving
advance payment from the customer, the group is exposed to credit risks in connection with
payment in arrears. The group's policy for assuming credit risks means that all major customers
are credit assessed and credit insured before entering a contract and thereafter on an
ongoing basis. The management of the credit risk is based on cooperation with one of the
world's largest credit insurance companies. The group does not have significant risks regarding
individual customers or business partners.
In addition, the credit risk on bank deposits is limited because the counterparties, holding
significant deposits, are banks with high credit-ratings (minimum A3/A-) assigned by
international credit-rating agencies. The Group’s policy is only to invest its cash deposits with
highly rated financial institutions
.
Liquidity risk
It is the group's policy to ensure strong financial flexibility and thus to develop and maintain a
strong and healthy capital structure which supports long-term profitable growth and
controlled development in key figures. The group's capital resources include liquid funds and
unused drawing rights. Since 2019, FOM Technologies has had a credit facility that has not
been used since establishment. The credit facility is on market terms.

Note 1 Accounting policies in the parent’s separate financial statements
The accounting policies for the Parent are the same as for the Group in the consolidated financial statements
with the following exception:
Investments in subsidiaries
Dividends on investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost. Cost is the value of the costs incurred in acquiring or creating
the asset, comprising the consideration paid to acquire or create the asset plus transaction costs.
Investments accounted for at cost are not subsequently remeasured. Such investments are measured in the
separate financial statements at the original cost of the investment until the investment is de-recognised or
impaired. Indications of impairment of investments in subsidiaries are assessed annually by Management.
Dividends on investments in subsidiaries are recognised in the income statement of the Parent in the financial
year in which the dividend is declared.
Equity
Reserve for development costs
The reserve for development costs comprises recognised development costs less related deferred tax
liabilities. The reserve cannot be used as dividend or for covering losses. The reserve is reduced or dissolved if
the recognised development costs are amortised or abandoned. This is done by direct transfer to the
distributable reserves of the equity

It is Management’s assessment that no indications of impairment existed at 31 December 2023. Impairment
tests have therefore not been carried out for subsidiaries.
Note 3 Contingent liabilities and other contractual obligations
FOM Technologies A/S is the administration company and subject to the Danish rules on mandatory joint
taxation of the Group. FOM Technologies A/S accordingly pays all income taxes to the tax authorities under
the joint taxation scheme. Danish subsidiaries are included in the joint taxation from the date when they are
included in the consolidated financial statements and up to the date when they are excluded from the
consolidation. The jointly taxed Danish companies are taxed under the on-account tax scheme.
On payment of joint taxation contributions, the current Danish income tax is allocated between the Danish
jointly taxed companies in proportion to their taxable income.
In addition, tax on profit/loss and deferred tax are calculated and recognised as described in note 11 in the
consolidated financial statements.

The Group's leasing activities and how they are accounted for:
During the first half year 2023, the Group entered into a number of lease agreements, involving leasing of office
premises and parking spots. The average lease maturity is 5.5 years but may have extensions options, which includes
the most significant lease agreement (the office premises) which has a maturity of 5.5 years.
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined,
which is generally the case for leases in the Group, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that
the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-
of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security, and conditions.
If a readily observable amortising loan rate is available to the individual lessee (through recent financing or market data)
which has a similar payment profile to the lease, then the Group uses that rate as a starting point to determine the
incremental borrowing rate.
The Group is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index or rate, which are
not included in the lease liability until they take effect. When adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate
take effect, the lease liability is reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset.
Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and vehicles and all leases of low-value assets are recognized
on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or
less.
