Differences relative to the accounting policies for the consolidated financial statements
The Parent company's accounting policies for recognition and measurement are consistent with the accounting
policies for the consolidated financial statements with the exceptions stated below. For a description of the
accounting policies of the Group, please refer to the consolidated financial statements.
Statement of profit or loss
Income from investments in subsidiaries
Income from investments in subsidiaries includes dividends from subsidiaries, which are recognized in the
Parent company's statement of profit or loss when the Parent company's right to receive such dividends has
been approved. Further, income from investments in subsidiaries includes proceeds from liquidation of
subsidiaries and any impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses on investments in subsidiaries.
Exchange gains/losses
Exchange gains/losses on translation of receivables from and payables to subsidiaries that are considered part
of the overall investment in subsidiaries are recognized in profit or loss under financial income or financial
expenses.
Exchange gains/losses on that part of the bank debt in foreign currency which is used for hedging of the net
investments in subsidiaries and which provides an effective hedging of the exchange gains/losses of the net
investments are recognized in profit or loss under financial income or financial expenses.
Statement of financial position
Investments in subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost in the Parent company's financial statements. Where the
recoverable amount of the investments is lower than cost, the investments are written down to this lower value.
In addition, cost is written down to the extent that dividends distributed exceed the accumulated earnings in
the subsidiary since the acquisition date.
Other financial assets
On initial recognition, investments are measured at cost, corresponding to fair value plus directly attributable
costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value at the balance sheet date. Any fair value adjustments on
equity investments recognized in other comprehensive income in the consolidated financial statements are
recognized under financial income or financial expenses in the Parent company's statement of profit or loss.
Statement of changes in equity
Pursuant to the Danish Financial Statements Act, entries recognized in the statement of comprehensive
income in the consolidated financial statements are recognized directly in the statement of changes in equity
in the Parent company's financial statements, except for entries concerning exchange gains/losses on
translation of receivables from and payables to subsidiaries, entries providing an effective hedge against
foreign exchange gains/losses on the net investment and entries concerning other financial assets.
Statement of cash flows
In accordance with the exemption clause in section 86(4) of the Danish Financial Statements Act, no separate
statement of cash flows has been prepared for the Parent company as it is included in the consolidated
statement of cash flows.View entire presentation
