The Board of Directors and the Executive Board have today discussed and approved the annual
accounts of the Carlsberg Group and the Parent Company for 2001.
The annual accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Danish Company Accounts Act
and the reporting requirements of the Copenhagen Stock Exchange, which include current Danish
accounting standards.
In our opinion, the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with appropriate accounting
policies and give a true and fair view of the Group’s and the Parent Company’s assets and liabilities,
financial position, profit for the financial year and cash flow.
