Information on geographical segments, etc.
The DFDS Group’s risk and management control is attached to the Business Units’ activities. The DFDS Group does not have a natural geographic distribution, since the
Group is based on a connected route network in Northern Europe, where the routes support each other with sales and customer services located in one country whereas
the actual revenue is created in other countries. It is consequently not possible to present a meaningful distribution of revenues and non-current assets by country, and
the distribution is therefore presented by water, in which DFDS operates, grouped as ‘North Seas and other seas’ and ‘The Baltic Sea’. The DFDS Group’s business model
causes that the routes are not directly owning the ships but are only leasing the ships from a vessel pool. The ships are often re-located within the DFDS route network.
It is consequently impossible to determine the exact volume of non-current assets by geographic segment, and an adapted model for allocation of non-current assets has
been applied.
