13 LEDELSESBERETNING / MANAGEMENT S REVIEW SÆRLIGE BEGIVENHEDER I 2005 Året blev præget af en stigende aktivitet og ikke mindst de 2 kapitalforhøjelser på henholdsvis nominelt 6 mio.kr., handlet på Dansk AMP og nominelt 1,5 mio.kr. udstedt i forbindelse med erhvervelsen af BR Marine A/S. Med erhvervelsen af tankskibsrederiet BR Marine A/S blev den strategiske målsætning om at blive aktiv indenfor tankskibsfart effektueret. Rederiet er endvidere tilført betydelig ekspertise inden for consulting og nybygningsprojekter. Der drives fra kontoret i København 11 skibe i teknisk management og fra nybygningskontorerne i Tyrkiet, Bulgarien og Vietnam varetages tilsyn med 13 nybygninger. I november måned kontraherede Rederiet sin første nybygning siden Der er tale om 2900 DWT container feeder bestilt i Vietnam til levering primo Anvendelse af IFRS Selskabet er overgået til anvendelse af IFRS for moderselskab og koncern. Ændringerne er beskrevet i anvendt regnskabspraksis samt i note 15. Datterselskaberne Rederiets Joint-venture i Vietnam»Sea Saigon Shipping Ltd.«med 12 ansatte på kontoret er det eneste internationale Rederi, der kan betjene vietnamesiske havne i kysttrafik. Selskabet opererer med samme service udbud som Fabricius Marine A/S (Rederiet Fabricius A/S, hvilket vil sige såvel teknisk management, bemanding og befragtning samt rederidrift og investering i tonnage. Rederiet opererer i dag 5 coasters, 1 containerskib samt 2 slæbebåde. SPECIAL EVENTS IN 2005 The year was characterised by increased activity and especially by the two capital increases of a nominal value of DKK 6m traded on the stock exchange Dansk AMP (Danish Authorised Marketplace) and a nominal value of DKK 1.5m issued on the acquisition of BR Marine A/S. With the acquisition of the tanker shipping company BR Marine A/S, the strategic object of becoming active within tanker shipping was reached. The shipping company has also been strengthened by considerable expertise within consulting and newbuilding projects. The Copenhagen office runs 11 vessels in technical management and from the newbuilding offices in Turkey, Bulgaria and Vietnam, 13 newbuildings are supervised. In November, the shipping company contracted its first newbuilding since 1992, a 2900 DWT container feeder ordered in Vietnam for delivery at the beginning of IFRS application The Company now applies IFRS for the Parent and the Group. The changes have been described under Accounting Policies as well as in note 15. Subsidiaries The shipping company s joint venture in Vietnam, Sea Saigon Shipping Ltd., with 12 employees at the office is the only international shipping company which can serve Vietnam harbours in coast traffics.

Today, the shipping company runs five coasters, 1 container vessel and 2 tug boats. ÅRSRAPPORT ANNUAL REPORT 2005

14 Det har taget længere end forventet at få de sproglige og operationelle standarder op på det ønskede niveau. Samtidig har de ældre coastere vist sig at være i en ringere stand end forventet. Disse forhold er nu bragt i orden, og fra januar 2006 er alle skibe i tilfredsstillende drift. Rederiet bistår»ho Chi Minh City University of Transport«med opkvalificering af vietnamesiske søfolks maritime kundskaber. Første kursus afvikles i marts 2006 i samarbejde med Marstal Navigationsskole og EUC Syd. Saigon Shipping Company: Rederiet har som første trin erhvervet 20% af det privatiserede statsrederi J/S Saigon Shipping Company, som udover rederidrift har betydelige aktiviteter indenfor landtransport, havne- og fly klarering samt gods- og distributionsterminaler. Det er hensigten, at øge Fabricius Marine A/S s (Rederiet Fabricius A/S) involvering yderligere på såvel management - som den financielle side i de kommende år. Rederiets polske joint-venture»dano«med 8 ansatte på kontoret blev i 2005 certificeret af Germanischer Lloyd: ISO ISM & ISPS, og driver i dag 3 coastere i Teknisk Management på lige fod med kontorerne i Marstal, København og Saigon. Selskabet og dets indkøbsfunktion har været til stor gavn for Fabricius Marine A/S (Rederiet Fabricius A/S) samt de skibe selskabet har i Teknisk Management. Skibene Rederiet har i et fælles selskab med Industrialiserings Fonden for Udviklingslande (IFU) erhvervet containerskibet Mekong Venture, nu Sea Master One, som efter en større renovering drives i teknisk manangement af Sea Saigon Shipping Ltd. It has taken longer than expected to bring the language and operational standards up to the desired level. Moreover, the older coasters have appeared to be in a much poorer condition than expected. These matters have now been settled and from January 2006, all vessels are operating satisfactorily. The shipping company assists Ho Chi Minh City University of Transport with upgrading the Vietnamese seamen s nautical skills. The first course will be held in March 2006 in cooperation with Marstal Navigationsskole and EUC South. Saigon Shipping Company: As the first step, the shipping company has acquired 20% of the privatised state-owned shipping company J/S Saigon Shipping Company which, apart from the shipping business, has considerable activitites within land transport, harbour and air clearance as well as cargo and distribution terminals. It is the intention to further increase Fabricius Marine A/S s (Rederiet Fabricius A/S) involvement in management as well as financials over the coming years. The shipping company s Polish joint venture, DANO, with 8 employees in the office was certified in 2005 by Germanischer Lloyd: ISO ISM & ISPS, and today DANO runs three coasters in Technical Management on equal terms with the offices in Marstal, Copenhagen and Saigon. The company and its purchasing department have been of great benefit to Fabricius Marine A/S (Rederiet Fabricius A/S) as well as the vesssels in Technical Management. Vessels In cooperation with the Danish Industrialization Fund for Developing Countries, the shipping company has now acquired the container vessel Mekong Venture, now Sea Master One, which is in Technical Management by Sea Saigon Shipping Ltd. after major repair work. 13

15 LEDELSESBERETNING / MANAGEMENT S REVIEW Der er i 2005 købt og solgt ejerandele i følgende skibe, som Fabricius Marine A/S (Rederiet Fabricius A/S) er medejer af sammen med Rederiet Hansen & Lange I/S: M/V Monte Verde, container feeder 7733 DWT - M/V MSC Carmargue, container feeder 7300 DWT, M/V Lykes Hunter, RO-LO DWT - M/V Margrethe, container feeder, DWT Der er i 2005 købt ejerandele i følgende skibe: Rederiet har købt 20% af M/V Delmas Luanda, container feeder 7150 DWT. Rederiet har udnyttet købsoption og erhvervet 100% af M/V Sea Lion, container feeder 4080 DWT. SÆRLIGE BEGIVENHEDER EFTER REGNSKABSÅRETS UDLØB Rederiet har indgået management aftaler om teknisk drift af 3 skibe i Rederiet har i 2006 solgt M/V Laola 2902 DWT og M/T Elbe Double 1782 DWT. UDSIGTER FOR 2006 Rederiet forventer en stigende investeringstakt i skibe og datterselskaber og et resultat på linie med En mindre del af flåden forventes at blive påvirket af det stagnerende marked for containertransport. Denne nedgang vil dog blive opvejet af nytilført tonnage, og den fulde effekt af synergierne ved sammenlægningen af Rederiet Fabricius A/S og BR Marine A/S. In 2005, ownership shares in the following vessels have been purchased and sold of which Fabricius Marine A/S (Rederiet Fabricius A/S) is a co-owner together with Rederiet Hansen & Lange I/S: M/V Monte Verde, container feeder 7733 DWT - M/V MSC Carmargue, container feeder 7300 DWT, M/V Lykes Hunter, RO-LO DWT - M/V Margrethe, container feeder, DWT The following ownership shares in vessels were acquired in 2005: The shipping company purchased 20% of M/V Delmas Luanda, container feeder 7150 DWT. The shipping company has exercised the option to purchase and acquired 100% of M/V Sea Lion, container feeder 4080 DWT. EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE The shipping company has entered into management agreements on technical operation of three vessels in The shipping company sold M/V Laola 2902 DWT and M/T Elbe Double 1782 DWT in OUTLOOK FOR 2006 The shipping company expects an increase in investments in vessels and subsidiaries and a profit at the level of A minor share of the fleet is expected to be affected by the stagnant market for container transport. However, the new tonnage and the full effect of the synergies from the merger of Rederiet Fabricius A/S and BR Marine A/S will compensate for this decrease. ÅRSRAPPORT ANNUAL REPORT 2005

16 SÆRLIGE RISICI Valutarisiko Rederiets skibe modtager primært betaling for sejlads i USD. Det skal dog bemærkes at for den størrelse skibe, som rederiet opererer, er der en sammenhæng mellem valutakurser og fragtrater, således at hvis USD falder meget, vil fragtraterne benævnt i USD samtidigt stige og delvist udligne faldet i USD. Renterisiko Størstedelen af koncernens gæld er variabel og en sikring heraf vurderes løbende. En del af gælden er således i 2006 afdækket ved fast forrentet lån. Kreditrisiko Det vurderes ikke, at der er væsentlige kreditrisici i balancen. VIDENRESSOURCER Selskabet har ambitioner om at være på forkant med udvikling indenfor transport og logistik. De kritiske forretningsprocesser er kvalitet, service og individuelle løsninger. Til sikring af, at kunden får den aftalte ydelse, stilles der krav om, at de enkelte metoder og procedurer dokumenteres. For til stadighed at kunne levere og udvikle konkurrencedygtige produkter og løsninger er det afgørende, at selskabet fortsat kan rekruttere og fastholde medarbejdere med et højt uddannelsesniveau. PARTICULAR RISKS Currency risks The shipping company s vessels primarily receive payment for maritime traffic in USD. However, it should be noted that with the size of vessels operated by the shipping company, currency rates and freight rates are connected so that if the USD rate of exchange declines heavily, the freight rates designated in USD will increase and partly compensate for the decline in the USD rate. Interest rate risk Most of the Group s debt carries a floating rate and hedging of the debt is therefore currently assessed. Part of the debt has therefore been hedged in 2006 by a fixed-rate loan. Credit risk It is assessed that there are no material credit risks in the balance sheet. INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL RESOURCES It is the Company s ambition to be at the leading edge of development within transport and logistics. The critical business processes are quality, service and tailor-made solutions. To ensure that the customer obtains the service agreed, the individual methods and procedures are required to be documented. To be able to continue supplying and developing competitive products and solutions, it is decisive that the Company continues to recruit and retain employees with a high educational level. 15

21 ANVENDT REGNSKABSPRAKSIS / ACCOUNTING POLICIES Årsrapporten for 2005 for Fabricius Marine A/S (Rederiet Fabricius A/S), der omfatter både årsrapporten for moderselskabet og koncernregnskab, aflægges i overensstemmelse med International Financial Reporting Standards som godkendt af EU og yderligere danske oplysningskrav til årsrapporter for regnskabsklasse D, jf. IFRS-bekendtgørelsen udstedt i henhold til årsregnskabsloven. Årsrapporten opfylder tillige International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) udstedt af IASB. Årsrapporten aflægges i danske kroner (DKK), der anses for at være den primære valuta for koncernens aktiviteter og den funktionelle valuta for moderselskabet. ÆNDRING AF ANVENDT REGNSKABSPRAKSIS SOM FØLGE AF OVERGANG TIL IFRS Årsrapporten for 2005 er den første årsrapport, der aflægges i overensstemmelse med IFRS. IFRS er valgt anvendt både i årsrapport for moderselskabet og i koncernregnskabet. Ved overgangen til IFRS er anvendt IFRS 1, Førstegangsanvendelse af IFRS. I henhold til denne er åbningsbalancen pr og sammenligningstallene for 2004 i overensstemmelse med de standarder og fortolkningsbidrag, der er gældende pr Åbningsbalancen pr er udarbejdet som om disse standarder og fortolkningsbidrag altid havde været anvendt, bortset fra hvor de særlige overgangs- og ikraftstrædelsesbestemmelser i IFRS 1, der er beskrevet nedenfor, finder anvendelse. The annual report for 2005 of Fabricius Marine A/S (Rederiet Fabricius A/S), which includes the annual report of the Parent as well as the consolidated financial statements, is presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU and additional Danish disclosure requirements for annual reports of reporting class D enterprises, see the Danish Executive Order on IFRS Adoption issued in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act. The annual report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by IASB. The annual report is presented in Danish kroner (DKK), which is regarded as the primary currency in relation to the Group s activities and the functional currency of the Parent. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES DUE TO TRANSITION TO IFRS The annual report for 2005 is the first being presented under IFRS. It was decided to apply IFRS both to the parent s annual report and the consolidated financial statements. IFRS 1»First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards«has been applied for the transition. This Standard requires the opening balance sheet at 1 January 2004 and the comparative figures for 2004 to be prepared in accordance with the standards and interpretations applicable at 31 December The opening balance sheet at 1 January 2004 has been prepared as if these standards and interpretations had always been applied, apart from those cases where the special transitional and commencement provisions described in IFRS apply, see below. ÅRSRAPPORT ANNUAL REPORT 2005

22 Overgangen til aflæggelse af årsrapport og koncernregnskab efter IFRS har nødvendiggjort ændringer af den anvendte regnskabspraksis for såvel moderselskabet som koncernen på nogle væsentlige områder med hensyn til indregning og måling: * Virksomhedssammenslutninger og goodwill * Moderselskabets måling af kapitalandele i dattervirksomheder og associerede virksomheder * Udskudt skat afsættes fuldt ud i modsætning til tidligere, hvor udskudt skat under tonnageskatteloven blev betragtet som en eventualforpligtelse Hovedreglen for regnskabsmæssig behandling af ændringer i anvendt regnskabspraksis er, at årsrapporten i ændringsåret skal aflægges med tilbagevirkende kraft som havde virksomheden altid anvendt den nye regnskabspraksis, herunder tilpasning af sammenligningstal. Ved overgang til regnskabsaflæggelse efter IFRS er der imidlertid i IFRS 1 givet en række såvel obligatoriske som valgfrie undtagelser til denne hovedregel. Selskabet har valgt at anvende følgende undtagelser: * Måling af anlægsaktiver til dagsværdi pr. åbningsbalancedatoen ( ). Dagsværdien anses herefter som tilpasset kostpris pr. denne dato i stedet for den oprindelige kostpris. * Aktiver og forpligtigelser i dattervirksomheder, associerede virksomheder og joint ventures ved deres senere overgang til IFRS sker til de regnskabsmæssige værdier som benyttet ved modervirksomhedens konsolidering af dattervirksomheden efter IFRS. Udover ændringer vedrørende indregning og måling er præsentationen og klassifikationen af regnskabs-poster ændret for følgende områder som følge af overgangen til regnskabsaflæggelse efter IFRS: The transition to presentation of annual report and consolidated financial statements under IFRS has required changes to the accounting policies applied by both the Parent and the Group in the following material areas as regards recognition and measurement: * Business combinations and goodwill * The Parent s measurement of investments in subsidiaries and associates * Deferred tax is fully provided compared to previously when deferred tax was considered a contingent liability under the Danish Act on Tonnage Tax. The general rule for accounting for changes in accounting policies is that, in the year of changing policies, the annual report is to be presented retrospectively as if the enterprise had always applied the new accounting policies, including restatement of comparative figures. When making the transition to financial statement presentation under IFRS, however, IFRS 1 provides a number of both mandatory and optional exemptions to this general rule. The Company has decided to apply the following exemptions: * Measurement of fixed assets at fair value at the opening balance sheet date (1 January 2004). The fair value is subsequently regarded as restated cost at this date instead of original cost. * On subsequent transition to IFRS, assets and liabilities in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are measured at the carrying amounts used at the Parent s consolidation of the subsidiaries according to IFRS. In addition to changes in recognition and measurement, disclosure and classification of financial statement items have been changed for the following elements because of the transition to IFRS financial statement presentation: 21

23 ANVENDT REGNSKABSPRAKSIS / ACCOUNTING POLICIES * Minoritetsinteresser, der præsenteres som en del af koncernegenkapitalen. * Hensatte forpligtigelser, der fordeles på kortog langfristede forpligtigelser. Den beløbsmæssige effekt af ændringerne i anvendt regnskabspraksis som følge af overgangen til regnskabsaflæggelse efter IFRS fremgår af note 15. * Minority interests that are disclosed as a consolidated equity component * Provisions distributed on short-term and longterm liabilities The effect in terms of value of the changes in accounting policies which follow from the transition to IFRS financial statement presentation is stated in note 15. KONCERNREGNSKABET Koncernregnskabet omfatter Fabricius Marine A/S (Rederiet Fabricius A/S) (modervirksomheden) og de virksomheder (tilknyttede virksomheder), som kontrolleres af modervirksomheden. Modervirksomheden anses for at have kontrol, når den direkte eller indirekte ejer mere end 50% af stemmerettighederne eller på anden måde kan udøve eller faktisk udøver bestemmende indflydelse. Virksomheder, hvori koncernen direkte eller indirekte besidder mellem 20% og 50% af stemmerettighederne og udøver betydelig, men ikke bestemmende indflydelse, betragtes som associerede virksomheder. Konsolideringsprincipper Koncernregnskabet udarbejdes på grundlag af regnskaber for Fabricius Marine A/S (Rederiet Fabricius A/S) og dets dattervirksomheder. Udarbejdelse af koncernregnskabet sker ved sammenlægning af regnskabsposter af ensartet karakter. Ved konsolideringen foretages eliminering af koncerninterne indtægter og omkostninger, interne mellemværender og udbytter samt fortjenester og tab ved transaktioner mellem de konsoliderede virksomheder. De regnskaber, der anvendes til brug for konsolideringen, udarbejdes i overensstemmelse med koncernens regnskabspraksis. I koncernregnskabet indregnes dattervirksomhedernes regnskabsposter 100%. Minoritetsinteressernes forholdsmæssige andel af resultatet indgår som en del af årets resultat for koncernen og som en særskilt del af koncernens egenkapital. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The consolidated financial statements include Fabricius Marine A/S (Rederiet Fabricius A/S) (Parent) and the enterprises (group enterprises) that are controlled by the Parent. Control is achieved by the Parent, either directly or indirectly, holding more than 50% of the voting rights or in any other way possibly or actually exercising controlling influence. Enterprises in which the Group, directly or indirectly, holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights and exercises significant, but not controlling influence are regarded as associates. Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis of the financial statements of Fabricius Marine A/S (Rederiet Fabricius A/S) and its subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements are prepared by combining uniform items. On consolidation, intra-group income and expenses, intra-group accounts and dividends as well as profits and losses on transactions between the consolidated enterprises are eliminated. The financial statements used for consolidation have been prepared applying the Group s accounting policies. Subsidiaries financial statement items are recognised in full in the consolidated financial statements. Minority interests pro rata share of profit/loss is disclosed as a specific item in the consolidated income statement and consolidated balance sheet, respectively. ÅRSRAPPORT ANNUAL REPORT 2005

24 Virksomhedssammenslutninger Nyerhvervede eller nystiftede virksomheder indregnes i koncernregnskabet fra overtagelsestidspunktet henholdsvis stiftelsestidspunktet. Solgte eller afviklede virksomheder indregnes i den konsoliderede resultatopgørelse frem til afståelsestidspunktet henholdsvis afviklingstidspunktet. Afståelsestidspunktet er det tidspunkt, hvor kontrollen over virksomheden faktisk overgår til tredjemand. Ved køb af nye virksomheder anvendes overtagelsesmetoden, hvorefter de nytilkøbte virksomheders identificerbare aktiver og forpligtelser måles til dagsværdi på overtagelsestidspunktet. Der hensættes til dækning af omkostninger ved besluttede og offentliggjorte omstruktureringer i den erhvervede virksomhed i forbindelse med overtagelsen. Der tages hensyn til skatteeffekten af de foretagne omvurderinger. Kostprisen for en virksomhed består af dagsværdien af det erlagte vederlag tillagt de omkostninger, der direkte kan henføres til virksomhedsovertagelsen. Hvis vederlagets endelige fastsættelse er betinget af en eller flere fremtidige begivenheder, indregnes disse reguleringer kun i kostprisen, såfremt den pågældende begivenhed er sandsynlig og effekten på kostprisen kan opgøres pålideligt. Positive forskelsbeløb (goodwill) mellem kostprisen for den erhvervede virksomhed og dagsværdien af de overtagne aktiver, forpligtigelser og eventualforpligtigelser indregnes som et aktiv under immaterielle aktiver og testes minimum en gang årligt for værdiforringelse. Hvis den regnskabsmæssige værdi af aktivet overstiger dets genindvindingsværdi, foretages der nedskrivning til den lavere genindvindingsværdi. Ved negative forskelsbeløb (negativ goodwill) foretages en revurdering af de opgjorte dagsværdier og den opgjorte kostpris for virksomhe- Business combinations Newly acquired or newly established enterprises are recognised in the consolidated financial statements from the time of acquiring or establishing such enterprises. Divested or wound-up enterprises are recognised in the consolidated income statement up to the time of their divestment or winding-up. Time of divestment is the date on which control of the enterprise actually passes to a third party. The purchase method is applied when acquiring new enterprises, under which identifiable assets and liabilities of the newly acquired enterprises are measured at fair value at the acquisition date. On acquisition of enterprises, provisions are made for costs relating to decided and published restructurings in the acquired enterprise. Allowance is made for the tax effect of the restatements. The cost of an enterprise consists of the fair value of the consideration paid plus costs which are directly attributable to the acquisition of enterprise. If the final determination of the consideration is conditional upon one or several future events, adjustments are only included in cost if the relevant event is probable and the effect on cost can be calculated reliably. Positive differences (goodwill) between cost of the enterprise acquired and the fair value of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired are recognised as an asset under intangible assets and are tested for impairment at least once a year. If the asset s carrying amount is higher than its recoverable amount, it is written down to this lower recoverable amount. In case of negative differences in amount (negative goodwill), the calculated fair values and the cost of the enterprise are reassessed. If the fair value of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities taken over continue to exceed cost after 23
