Notes<br />

Note 1 Accounting principles continued<br />

Financial instruments<br />

In addition to traditional financial instruments as trade receivables, accounts payable and interest-bearing liabilities,<br />

the company has entered into forward exchange contracts. Gains or losses from the forward exchange contracts<br />

classified as hedging is accrued for and offset against the item which is hedged. Forward exchange contracts which<br />

not meet the hedging criteria are measured at fair value and recognised in the balance sheet. Gains or losses is<br />

recognised as financial income or financial expenses.<br />

Income tax<br />

The tax expense in the profit and loss account consists of both tax payable for the accounting period and changes in<br />

deferred tax. Deferred tax is calculated as 28 percent of temporary differences between accounting profit and<br />

taxable profit considering the tax effect of former operating losses. Temporary differences, both positive and<br />

negative, are offset within the same period. Deferred tax assets are recorded in the balance sheet when it is more<br />

likely than not that the tax assets will be utilized.<br />

Change of accounting principles<br />

a) Pensions<br />

Until 2004 actuarial gains and losses (if they exceeded 10% of the highest of total pension assets or liabilities<br />

(corridor)) were amortized over the remaining average period for accumulated actuarial gains or losses. From 2005<br />

actuarial gains or losses is recognised directly in equity (net of tax). Accumulated actuarial gains from former<br />

periods (net of tax) at a total of NOK 143 850 has reduced the equity in 2005.<br />

Effective from 2005 pension obligations is treated in accordance with NRS 6 (correspond with IAS 19 "Employee<br />

Benefits"). The effect of the transition NOK 2.241 418 (net of tax) is set of against equity.<br />

b) Financial derivatives<br />

Forward exchange contracts which did meet the hedging criteria were until 2004 not recognised until the transaction<br />

was realised, while only unrealized losses on other foreign currency transactions were recognised. From 2005 also<br />

unrealised gains on other exchange contracts is recognised. In 2005 gains (net of tax) of<br />

NOK 946 080 were recognised in the income statement.<br />

Forward exchange contracts which met the hedging criteria were until 2004 not recognised. From 2005 these<br />

forward exchange contracts are measured at fair value and recognised in the balance sheet. Revaluations relating to<br />

foreign currency transactions which meet the hedging criteria are recognised directly in equity until the object of the<br />

hedge transaction is realised, or the hedging is evaluated not to be effective. The value of unrealised gains was NOK<br />

5 781 265 (net of tax) at 31.12.2004<br />

The figures from former years are not restated and are not directly comparable.<br />
