Notes<br />

Note 1 Accounting principles<br />

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Norwegian Accounting Act and Norwegian generally<br />

accepted accounting principles<br />

Sales revenue<br />

Sales revenue is recognized at the time of delivery.<br />

Balance sheet classification and valuation<br />

Current assets and short term liabilities consist of receivables and payables due within one year, and entries related<br />

to goods in circulation. Other entries are classified as fixed assets / long term liabilities.<br />

Current assets are valued at the lower of acquisition cost and fair value. Short term liabilities are recognized at<br />

nominal value.<br />

Fixed assets are valued at acquisition cost, but in the case of impairment the asset will be written down to the<br />

recoverable amount if this is lower than the recorded amount. Recoverable amount is the higher of value in use and<br />

net realisable value. Long term liabilities are recognized at nominal value.<br />

Intangible assets / government grants<br />

Costs related to research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Government grants from SkatteFUNN<br />

related to development costs are treated as a reduction in development costs.<br />

Accounts receivable and other receivables<br />

Accounts receivable and other current receivables are recorded in the balance sheet at nominal value less provisions<br />

for doubtful debts. Provisions for doubtful debts are estimated using individual assessments of the different<br />

receivables. In addition, for the remainder of the receivables, a general provision is estimated based on expected<br />

loss.<br />

Inventories<br />

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is estimated using the FIFO method. Finished goods<br />

and work in progress are valued at full production cost. Impairments are carried out in case of foreseeable<br />

obsolescence.<br />

Foreign currency translation<br />

Foreign currency transactions are translated using the transaction date exchange rates. Balance sheet items are<br />

translated using the year end exchange rates.<br />

Property, plant and equipment<br />

Property, plant and equipment is capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful economic life if the assets<br />

useful life is over 3 years and the cost price is over NOK 15.000,-. Maintenance costs are expensed as incurred,<br />

whereas improvements and upgrading are added to the acquisition cost and depreciated with the asset.<br />

Pensions<br />

All the employees in the company are secured in a pension plan which is funded in an insurance company. Pension<br />

costs and pension liabilities are estimated and recognised on a straight line basis considering final salary. Pension<br />

funds are recognised at fair value and deducted from net pension liabilities in the balance sheet. This years pension<br />

cost (gross pensions cost after deduction of estimated profit from pension assets) is included in payroll expenses.<br />

The pension cost (gross) comprises of net value of the years earnings and interest of last years pension obligation.<br />

Social security costs are included in the figures.<br />
