2 ADMINISTRATION REPORT The company's business activities The company develops, manufactures, markets, sells and services hybrid power systems (esite) and prefabricated data centres (ecentre) for the ICT industry. Flexenclosure's products are built in its own factory in Vara, and installed on-site at customers' premises. The esite uses renewable energy and shows that a transition to green energy is an effective way of reducing operating costs. Important circumstances and significant events Orders During 2016, Flexenclosure received new orders for 200 MSEK and a letter of Intent for 95 MSEK, so the total of new business won was 295 MSEK, close to the 2015 total of 300 MSEK. The most significant new project wins were for ecentres in Colombia and Bolivia as Flexenclosure continued to build its presence in Latin America. In addition, Flexenclosure won smaller ecentre projects in Ethiopia and on the Pacific island of Palau. The latter marks entry into the market for cable landing stations. This is a new and growing segment of the data centre market that is now emerging as the volume of undersea cables expands in the Pacific region. Flexenclosure won business for the esite product from two new customers in Myanmar and expansion orders from Nigeria where the company is supplying esites to one of Africa s largest tower companies was however a slower year for esite orders compared to 2015, partly because the largest tower company was in the process of managing a deployment project, and partly because Flexenclosure was transitioning from its previous product the esite k12, to its new product the esite x10. The company is working to get a more even inflow of new orders, which will improve the working capital situation and give a more efficient production process. Operations During 2016 Flexenclosure has continued to deploy projects successfully in multiple geographies. The largest deployments during the year were the esites in Nigeria and the ecentre in Paraguay. Smaller projects have been deployed in Myanmar and Gabon. Flexenclosure has continued to close projects that it has been involved in over a longer period. Closure of projects, that Flexenclosure has been involved in over a longer period of time, will continue during 2017 as final payments are collected. By the end of 2016, Flexenclosure had won orders for a total of 42 data centre projects and just over 3,000 esites. The company has experience in 27 countries. Aside from new orders and projects deployments the most significant event for Flexenclosure in 2016 was the launch of the new esite x10. The esite x10 is the world s first purpose built hybrid power system for outdoor environments. Unlike previous esites, the x10 is not an assembly of third party products, but instead it is a fully integrated solution where Flexenclosure has two patents and a design protection. The product is notable in that it has no moving parts and it is convection cooled, meaning it is a maintenance free unit. At the end of 2016, Flexenclosure conducted field trials and the product passed successfully. The next step is proof of concept deployments with several customers, followed by volume orders in the second half of (33)

3 Financial Revenue for 2016 was 305,4 MSEK, an improvement of 39% compared to Of the total revenue, esite generated 219,8 MSEK and ecentre 76,7 MSEK. The gross margin improved by 4%-points to 22%, compared to last year. The company have maintained a better margin in our projects throughout the year due to improved processes and internal controls. This has resulted in a margin exceeding 20% five quarters in a row. The operating expenditures have decreased compared to last year by 7 %. The EBITDA was -22,7 MSEK, an improvement of 62% compared to last year. EBITDA for the esite product only, was positive by 2,5 MSEK. Flexenclosure has had a difficult time collecting cash, resulting in periods of severe cash shortage that has damaged the profitability of the projects and adversely impacted supplier and customer relationships. The company is not in dispute with any customers over cash owed, but several customers have been very slow payers based on a combination of their own liquidity challenges or central bank currency restrictions. The equity in the balance sheet at the end of the period was 33,3 MSEK inkluding minority shares, giving an equity ratio of 12 %. The company initiated an IPO process during the spring of The company did, however, not go public since the board judged it not likley for the company to raise the minimum capital needed, and should evaluate other financing options in a broader perspective. Significant event after the end of the year During the beginning of 2017 the company has continued to successfully carry out field trials for the newly launched product esite X10. The field trials have been active in Nigeria and Myanmar and shown positive result. During the first quarter of 2017, the company has continued the work of collecting old payments and succeeded to collect a total amount exceeding 4 MUSD. The most important collection was a receivable from Angola, just short of 2 MUSD. Significant risks and uncertanties Operational risks The operational risks associated with the company's customer projects and can be substantial. In recent years, the company has worked to control these risks. Flexenclosures operation is primarily performed in the emerging markets with increased risk for political and financial instability. The company has a collaboration with the Swedish Export Credit agency (Exportkreditnämnden in Swedish) in order to mitigate these risks. It is important for the company to maintain a high level of quality and security in projects and the work carried out by the company in existing projects has increased its knowledge, its awareness and ability to manage the existing risks. 3 (33)

4 Financial risks The company has a policy to decrease the financial costs and control and mitigate all the financial risks in the company, like levels of interests, foreign exchange risks, refinancing and counterparty risks. The company is working to get sufficient working capital. This will be done by increasing the equity via a rights issue or other external financing of the company. The main shareholder, Pegroco Invest AB, has issued a letter of comfort committing to, alone and/ or with other shareholders, provide the company with needed capital until such time that the company is profitable and has a positive cash flow. The liquidity of the company improved during the first and the last quarter due to the two rights issue during the year. One risk is the lack of hard currencies, primarily dollars, in certain countries where the company is operating. The currency restrictions and macroeconomic environments in some of the geographical areas where the company operates, have had an impact on the company s abilities to collect payments. The company has customers in several countries and is thereby exposed to potential foreign exchange risks, primarily in USD. A major part of the costs is in SEK, with some purchases of goods and material also made in USD and Euro. The company does not secure or hedge this risk, however it is working to mitigate the risk as much as possible. The company has both receivables and payables exposed in foreign currencies, and is trying to match ingoing and outgoing payments in the same currency. The company also works to mitigate these risks by getting advance payments from customers, working with letter of credits as well as guarantees issued by EKN. Anticipated future progress The growth achieved by the company in 2016 has in many ways tested the company's ability in terms of both production and logistics but is has also enhanced the company's expertise and built it market presence to an equal extent marked an important step forward for Flexenclosure and the experience gained from that year is extremely valuable for the future in view of the predicted continued growth in both company's product markets. Flexenclosure has during the years established itself as a global player for environmental products. The company will continue to develop its products and will launch new innovations during In the company, there is a loss carried forward of 442 MSEK, which could be used against future profits. The deferred tax recoverable amounts to 22% of the losses. As the company, has not accounted any profit, the board has decided not to activate the asset in the balance sheet, but will do so when the company shows a stable profit. The company s board and owners are currently involved in an ongoing process to raise new equity and secure a longterm financial solution for the company. The process is expected to close in Q Shareholders with an ownership in the company exceeding 10%: Pegroco Invest AB 32% AB Flexen Intressenter 13.60% 4 (33)

13 Notes to the financial statements Note1 Accounting and valuation principles The financial reports of the and the have been prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and BRNAR 2012:1 (K3). The principles applied are unchanged compared to last year. The most important accounting and valuation principles used in the preparation of the financial reports are summarised below. Valuation principles for consolidated accounts Consolidated accounts In the consolidated account, the operations of Flexenclosure AB and all subsidiaries are consolidated up until and including 31 December Subsidiaries are all companies in which Flexenclosure has the right to draw up the Company s financial and operational strategies for the purpose of receiving financial benefits. Flexenclosure achieves and exercises a deciding influence by holding more than half of the votes. Companies set up for particular purposes are also consolidated if Flexenclosure AB has a deciding influence, irrespective of whether there is an ownership share or not. The balance sheet date of all subsidiaries is 31 December and they apply Flexenclosure s valuation principles. The consolidated accounts are presented in SEK, which is also Flexenclosures AB's reporting currency. Profit/loss for subsidiaries purchased or sold during the year are reported as from the date the purchase or sale came into force, according to what is applicable. Minority interests, which are reported as part of equity, represent the proportion of a subsidiary s profit/loss and net assets that is now owned by Flexenclosure. Flexenclosure allocates the net profit/loss from the subsidiaries between Flexenclosure AB s owner and the minority based on their respective ownership shares. Amounts reported in the financial reports for subsidiaries have been adjusted where required in order to safeguard correspondence with Flexenclosure s accounting principles. All subsidiaries in the are subsidiaries started by the Company. Acquisition method Flexenclosure applies the acquisition method when reporting company acquisitions entailing that the reported value of Flexenclosure AB s participations in companies are eliminated by being offset against the subsidiary s equity at the time of acquisition. Flexenclosure AB draws up an acquisition analysis as at the time of acquisition in order to identify Flexenclosure s acquisition value, both for the participations and also for the subsidiary s assets, provisions and liabilities. The company acquisition is reported in the as from the time of acquisition. All subsidiaries in the are subsidiaries started by the Company. 13 (33)

14 Translation of foreign operations Foreign operations Flexenclosure AB On consolidation, assets and liabilities, including goodwill and other -wide surplus or shortfall values are translated to SEK at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Income and expenses are translated to SEK according to an average exchange rate for the reporting period, which constitutes an approximation of the transaction rate. Exchange rate differences that arise on translation of foreign operations are reported in equity. Valuation principles for income statement Income Income arises from the sale of goods and the performance of services and is reported in the item Revenue. Income is valued at the fair value of what has been received or will be received for goods delivered and services performed, i.e. at sales price excluding trade discounts, quantity discounts and similar price deductions and value added tax. Amounts received on behalf of another are not included in Flexenclosure s income. Sale of goods Sale of goods is reported when Flexenclosure has transferred the significant risks and benefits associated with ownership of the goods to the customer, the goods have been delivered to the customer and the expenses that arise as a result of the transaction can be calculated in a reliable way. Income from sale of goods that do not have any significant service obligations is reported on delivery. The esite production area: Income derived from shipping of products for the esite production area is recognised when the risk passes to the purchaser. Income derived from installing the product is recognised when the product is installed and commissioned by the customer. Contract assignments and service assignments at fixed price Ongoing projects on behalf of clients are recognised in accordance with the principle of revenue recognition of work in progress whereby revenue recognition takes place in accordance with the respective degree of completion of the assignment. When the outcome can be estimated reliably, income from assignments and expenses related to assignments are recognised in the income statement on the basis of the degree of completion of the tasks under the agreement at the balance sheet date. The ecentre production area: The degree of completion is established by comparing assignment expenses incurred with the total assignment expenses. When Flexenclosure cannot estimate the outcome of an assignment in a reliable way, assignment income is reported in an amount corresponding to assignment expenses incurred which probably will be reimbursed by the customer. On all occasions when it is probable that the total assignment expenses will exceed the total assignment income, the anticipated loss is reported immediately in the income statement. 14 (33)

15 When it is no longer probable that payment will be received for amounts that have already been reported as income, the amount that will probably not be received is reported as a cost. Income from service assignment with an uncertain number of activities over a fixed period of time are reported in a linear manner over this time period. The gross amounts to be paid by customers for assignments are reported in the item Prepaid expenses and accrued income for all assignments in progress where assignment expenses and reported profits (after deduction of reported losses) exceed the invoiced amount. The gross amounts to be paid by customers for assignments are reported in the item Advance payments from customers for all assignments in progress where the invoiced amount exceeds the assignment expenses and reported profits (after deduction of reported losses). Contract assignments and service assignments at cost plus Contract assignments/service assignments at cost plus are recognised in revenue at the rate the work is done and material is delivered or consumed. Valuation principles for balance sheet Intangible fixed assets Intangible fixed assets are valued at acquisition value minus accumulated depreciation and impairment. The acquisition value does not include borrowing expenses. Development expenses brought forward Flexenclosure carried out development products in order to develop the s commercial productsesite and ecenter and support systems for administration and production. Expenses for the research phase in a development project are written off during the period in which they arise. Expenses that are directly attributable to the development phase of a development project are reported as an intangible fixed asset, provided they fulfil the following requirements: * It is technically possible to complete the asset so that it can be used or sold. * Flexenclosure intends to complete the asset and use or sell it. * Flexenclosure has the prerequisites to use or sell the asset. * It is probable that the asset will generate future financial benefits. * There are sufficient resources to complete the asset and to use or sell it. * The development expense can be measured in a reliable way. Development expenses that do not fulfil these criteria for capitalisation are written off as they arise. The acquisition value of expenses brought forward include the expenses for the production of the asset. Directly attributable expenses include personnel expenses arising from the work on development and direct expenses for external consultants. The Company calculates attributable personnel expenses by following up the number of man hours expended on each development project. Expenses per man hour is valued at actual monthly salary and the estimated payroll overhead including pension recalculated on an hourly basis. 15 (33)

16 The reported value of all development projects capitalised is revalued by the Company management whenever it is established that the reported value of a development project is higher than the estimated fair value. When it can be established that the reported value is higher than the estimated fair value, an impairment is carried out in the income statement. Goodwill Goodwill represents the difference between the acquisition value of a company acquisition and the fair value of the acquired assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities. Software Capitalised expenses for software purchased consist of the expenses for purchase and installation of the specific software. Depreciation Depreciation of the depreciable amount is done in a linear way over the expected useful life. Depreciation starts when the asset can be used. Licences are written off over the contract period. The useful life is reviewed at each balance sheet date. For capitalised expenses for development, the depreciation period is based on the product's forecast life cycle. The assets are subject to linear depreciation over the assets' useful life. The useful life is reviewed at each balance sheet date. The following useful lives are used: * Development expenses brought forward: 5 years * Licences: 5 years * Goodwill: 10 years Goodwill is currently depreciated over a period in excess of five years when it relates to a net asset acquisition, where Flexenclosure AB s business and company name was acquired. Removal from the balance sheet Intangible fixed assets are removed from the balance sheet on scrapping or disposal, or when no future financial benefits are expected from the use, scrapping or disposal of the asset. When intangible fixed assets are sold, the capital gain is calculated as the difference between the sale price and the reported value of the asset, and is reported in the income statement in one or the other of the items Other operating income or Other operating expenses. Tangible fixed assets Tangible fixed assets are initially reported at the acquisition value or manufacturing cost including expenses for getting the asset into place and in condition to use as was the intention of the investment. The acquisition value includes the purchase price and all other directly attributable expenses, such as expenses for delivery, handling, installation, assembly and consultancy services. The acquisition value of the s buildings/machines has been allocated according to component. Tangible fixed assets are thereafter valued at acquisition value minus accumulated depreciation and impairment. 16 (33)

17 Depreciation Depreciation of tangible fixed assets is made of the asset s depreciable amount over its useful life, and starts when the asset is taken into use. Depreciation is done in a linear way. The following useful lives are applied: * Equipment, tools, fixtures and fittings: 3-5 years Removal from the balance sheet Tangible fixed assets are removed from the balance sheet on scrapping or disposal, or when no future financial benefits are expected from the use, scrapping or disposal of the asset or component. When tangible fixed assets are sold, the capital gain is calculated as the difference between the sale price and the reported value of the asset, and is reported in the income statement in one or the other of the items Other operating income or Other operating expenses. Leasing Leasing agreements are classified as either financial or operational leasing at the time they are entered into. All leasing agreements within Flexenclosure are classified as operational leasing. Operational leasing Leasing agreements that are not financial leasing agreements are operational leasing agreements. When Flexenclosure is the leaseholder, leasing fees relating to operational leasing agreements are written off in a linear way over the leasing period. Additional costs, such as maintenance and insurance, are written off as they arise. Assessment of impairment requirement for intangible and tangible fixed assets At each balance sheet date, an assessment is made of whether there is any indication that the value of an asset is lower than its reported value. If there is such an indication, the recovery value of the asset is calculated. If the recovery value is less than the reported value, an impairment is made which is written off. An intangible fixed asset produced in-house which is not yet completed for use or sale on the balance sheet date is always assessed for impairment. The recovery value of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the highest of fair value minus sales costs and the value in use. Fair value minus sales costs constitutes the price that Flexenclosure would expect to get from a sale between knowledgeable parties who are independent of each other and who are interested in the transaction being completed. Deduction is made of such costs as are directly attributable to the sale. The value in use consists of future cash flows to which an asset or a cashgenerating unit is expected to give rise. On impairment assessment, assets are grouped into cash-generating units. A cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group receiving payments that are independent in all significant respects. The result is that the impairment need of certain assets is assessed on an individual basis, and some are assessed at cash-generating unit level. 17 (33)

18 With the exception of goodwill, a new assessment is made of all assets for any sign that a previous impairment no longer is justified. An impairment is reversed if the recoverable value of the asset or the cash-generating unit exceeds the reported value and is allocated proportionally over all assets, apart from goodwill. Receivables and liabilities in foreign currency Monetary items in foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date and the exchange rate differences that arise are reported in the income statement. Exchange rate gains and losses relating to operational receivables and liabilities in foreign currency are reported in the items Other operating income and Other operating expenses. Realized exchange rate gain may occur at time of payment of receivables. Other exchange rate gains and losses are reported under the heading Profit/loss from financial items. Non-monetary items are not recalculated on the balance sheet date and are valued at acquisition A monetary item that is considered to be part of the s net investment in a foreign operation is reported in the Company where the difference arose and in the consolidated accounts as a separate component direct in equity. Financial instruments Reporting and valuation Financial instruments Financial assets and liabilities are reported when Flexenclosure becomes part of the contractual terms and conditions of the financial instrument. Accounts receivable trade are valued at acquisition value minus any anticipated losses. Accounts payable - trade and other non-interest bearing liabilities are valued at nominal amounts. Financial fixed assets and long-term receivables are valued both at the first time of reporting and in subsequent valuations at accrued acquisition value, which is normally the same as fair value (transaction value) at the time of acquisition, with the addition of directly attributable transaction expenses, such as brokerage. Financial assets classified as current assets and current liabilities are valued both at the first time of reporting and in subsequent valuations at acquisition value. An addition is made of directly attributable transaction expenses, such as brokerage. Inventory Inventory is valued according to the lowest value principle, i.e. the lowest of the acquisition value and the net sales value. The acquisition value includes all the expenses attributable to the manufacturing process and a suitable proportion of associated manufacturing expenses, based on normal capacity. The acquisition value is calculated according to the weighted average value principle, where deliveries from inventory are valued at the average value of the articles delivered to inventory during the inventory closure period, plus all inventory receipts from the previous period. The net sales value is the estimated price for which the good can be sold according to terms that are normal for the operation, minus any applicable sales expenses that are directly attributable to the sales transaction. 18 (33)

19 Income taxes Income tax consists of current tax and deferred tax. Income tax is reported in the income statement except when an underlying transaction is reported in equity, when the associated tax effect is also reported in equity. Current tax receivables and tax liabilities and deferred tax receivables and tax liabilities are offset against each other if there is a legal right to offset. Current tax Current tax is the tax cost for the current financial year relating to the taxable profit for the year and that part of the income tax for previous financial years that has not yet been reported. Current tax is valued at the probable amount according to the tax rates and tax rules that apply on the balance sheet date, and are not translated into current value. Deferred tax Deferred tax is the income tax on the taxable profit relating to future financial years as a result of previous transactions or events. Deferred tax is calculated using the balance sheet method for all temporary differences, i.e. differences between the reported value of assets and liabilities and their tax values and tax shortfalls. No provision is made for deferred tax on temporary difference attributable to holdings in subsidiaries or joint ventures, as Flexenclosure can control the timing of reversal of the temporary differences, and such a reversal will not take place within the foreseeable future. No provision is made for deferred tax at the first reporting of goodwill, however. Changes to deferred tax are reported in the income statement. Deferred tax receivables are reported for all deductible temporary difference and for the option of utilising unused loss carry forward in the future. Deferred tax receivables and tax liabilities are valued based on how Flexenclosure expects to be regain/settle the reported value of the corresponding asset/liability. The valuation is done without discounting and according to the tax rates and tax rules that are decided on on the balance sheet date. A deferred tax receivable is valued at most at the amount that will probably be regained, based on current or future taxable profits, which is reassessed on every balance sheet date. Liquid assets Liquid assets consist of cash and cash equivalents and unappropriated holdings with banks and other credit institutions and other current liquid investments that can easily be converted into a known amount and that are exposed to an insignificant risk of value fluctuations. Such investments have a term of a maximum of three months. 19 (33)

20 Equity Equity in the consists of the following items: Share capital representing the nominal value of issued and registered shares. Other capital contributed including any premium received on new issues of share capital. Any transaction costs associated with new share issues are deducted from the premium, with consideration for any income tax effects. Other equity including profit/loss for the year, which includes the following: * Profit/loss brought forward, i.e. all profit/loss brought forward and share-related remuneration for the current and previous periods All transactions with Flexenclosure AB s owners are reported separately in equity. Dividend to be paid is included in the item Other liabilities when the dividend has been approved at a general meeting before the balance sheet date. Payments to employees Current payments Current payments to employees, such as salaries, holiday pay and bonus, are payments to employees that become due within 12 months from the balance sheet date during the year the employee has earned the pay. Current payments are valued at the undiscounted amount the is expected to pay as a result of the unutilised right. Payments after termination of employment Flexenclosure provides payments after termination of employment in the form of pensions through various defined contribution schemes. There are no defined benefit schemes. Defined contribution pension schemes Flexenclosure pays fixed fees to other legal entities relating to several government schemes and insurance schemes for individual employees. Flexenclosure has no legal or informal obligations to pay further fees over and above payment of the fixed fee, which is reported as a cost during the period in which the service in question is performed. 20 (33)

21 Other long-term payments Payments that become due for payment after more than 12 months are valued at the current value of the obligation on the balance sheet date. Payment on termination Provision for severance pay is reported when Flexenclosure has a legal or informal obligation to terminate employment before its due time or to pay compensation on termination by means of an offer in order to encourage voluntary redundancy. Provision is made for that part of the termination pay that the employee receives without any duty to work, plus social security contributions, which represents the best estimation of the pay that is expected to be required in order to settle the obligation. Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets Provisions Provisions for product guarantees, legal processes, loss contracts or other claims are reported when Flexenclosure has a legal or informal obligation as a result of an event that has occurred, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required in order to settle the obligation and the amount can be estimated in a reliable way. The timing or the amount of the outflow may still be uncertain. Provisions for restructuring is only reported if a fixed and detailed restructuring plan has been prepared and introduced, or if the main features of the plan have at least been published to those on whom it impacts. Provisions are not reported for expenses connected to the future operation. Provisions are initially valued at the best estimation of the amount required to settle the existing obligation, based on the most reliable information that is available on the balance sheet date. Provisions are discounted at their current value where the time value of money is significant. Any compensation that Flexenclosure is almost certain to receive from an external party in relation to the obligation is reported as a separate asset. However, this asset cannot exceed the amount of the attributable provision. The provision is only utilised for the expenses for which the provision was originally intended. The provision is reassessed every balance sheet date. Adjustments are reported in the income statement. Contingent liabilities The following are reported as contingent liabilities * a possible obligation as a result of events that have occurred and whose existence will only be confirmed by one or several uncertain events, which are not entirely within the control of Flexenclosure, occurring or failing to occur, or * an existing obligation as a result of events that have occurred but which have not been reported as a liability or a provision as it is not probable that an outflow of resources will be required in order to settle the obligation, or the size of the obligation cannot be calculated with sufficient reliability. 21 (33)

22 Note 2 Important assessments and uncertainty of estimates When financial reports are drawn up, the Board of Directors and the Managing Director must make certain estimates, assessments and assumptions, according to the accounting and valuation principles applied, which impact on the reporting and valuation of assets, provisions, liabilities, income and expenses. The areas where such estimates and assessments may be of great importance to the, and which can thus affect the income statements and balance sheets in the future, are described below. The following are important assessments that have been made during implementation of the s accounting principles, and which have the most significant effect on the financial reports. Reporting on contract assignments in progress Reported profit or loss of a contract assignment in progress is based on the percentage of completion of the project. Flexenclosure has made the assessment that assignment expenses incurred in proportion to total estimated assignment expenses best describes the percentage of completion of the project. The percentage of completion method requires that project income and project expenses can be estimated in a reliable manner.this requires a well established system for estimation, forecasting, reconciliation and financial tracking of the project, including the analysis of deviations in the estimate compared to the previous estimate. This critical assessment is performed at least once a month. If the final financial outcome of the project is assessed to be negative total estimated project expenses are recognised as cost regardless of the current state of completion of the project. Forecasting the final outcome of a project is a critical assessment which is important for the reporting of profit and loss during the life of the project. There is a risk that the final profit or loss of the project may deviate from the forecasted one. When Flexenclosure cannot estimate the outcome of an assignment in a reliable way, assignment income is reported in an amount corresponding to assignment expenses incurred. Capitalising intangible fixed assets Development phase The allocation between the research and development phases of new development projects concerning esite and ecenter and determining whether the requirements for capitalisation of development expenses have been fulfilled requires assessment. Following capitalisation, the issue of whether the completion of the reporting requirements for development expenses is continuing to be fulfilled is monitored, and also whether there are indications that the capitalised expenses may be exposed to a reduction in value. Flexenclosure has development expenses brought forward which have not yet been completed. These are assessed for any impairment requirement on an annual basis. In order to do this, an assessment must be made of future cash flows attributable to the asset or the cash-generating unit to which the asset shall be attributed once it is completed. A suitable discount interest rate should also be set in order to discount these estimated cash flows. Determining the discount interest rate is always subject to important assessments. Impairment In order to assess the impairment requirement, the recovery value of each asset or cash-generating unit is calculated, based on expected future cash flow and using a suitable interest rate in order to discount the cash flow. There are uncertainties in the assumptions about future cash flow and the setting of a suitable discount interest rate. 22 (33)

23 Useful life of depreciable assets On each balance sheet date, a review is made of the current assessments of the useful lives of depreciable assets. The uncertainty of these assessments is due to technical obsolescence, which can change the use of the asset in question. Reporting of deferred tax receivables The assessment of the extent to which deferred tax receivables may be reported is based on an assessment of the probability of the s future taxable income against which deferred tax receivables can be utilised. Significant consideration is also required in the assessment of the effect of certain legal and financial limitations or uncertainties in different jurisdictions. Since Flexenclosure historically has reported losses the board has decided that a deferred tax receivable shall be reported only when convincing evidence are at hand which support the notion that accumulated taxable loss can be regained against future taxable profits. Accounts receivable - trade Accounts receivable trade are valued at the cash flow that is expected to be received by the Company. A detailed and objective review of all outstanding amounts on the balance sheet date is therefore carried out. The provision for doubtful receivables is based on an assessment of the customers solvency and is intrinsically difficult to estimate. When drawing up the financial reports a special assessment of the s Accounts receivables is made on an item-by-item basis. 23 (33)
