Independent Auditor s Report To the Board of Directors of Koda Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the Financial Statements of Koda for the financial year 1 January 31 December 2014, which comprise income statement, balance sheet, notes and summary of significant accounting policies. The Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with the By-laws of Koda and the accounting policies adopted by the Society. Management s Responsibility for the Financial Statements The Management of the Society is responsible for the preparation of Financial Statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the By-laws of Koda and the accounting policies adopted by the Society, and for such internal control as Management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of Financial Statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Financial Statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and additional requirements under Danish audit regulation. This requires that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the Financial Statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing audit procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Financial Statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Society s preparation of Financial Statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Society s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by Management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Financial Statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. The audit has not resulted in any qualification. 2

Accounting Policies The Financial Statements are prepared under the following accounting policies which remain unchanged from last year. The Financial Statements for 2014 are presented in DKK thousands. Method of revenue recognition Music revenue is recognised in the income statement as earned. Furthermore, value adjustments of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value or amortised cost are recognised. Moreover, all expenses incurred to achieve the earnings for the year are recognised in the income statement, including depreciation, amortisation, impairment losses and provisions as well as reversals due to changed accounting estimates of amounts that have previously been recognised in the income statement. Assets are recognised in the balance sheet when it is probable that future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the Society, and the value of the asset can be measured reliably. Liabilities are recognised in the balance sheet when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow out of the Society, and the value of the liability can be measured reliably. Assets and liabilities are initially measured at cost. Subsequently, assets and liabilities are measured as described for each item below. Translation policies Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rates at the dates of transaction. Gains and losses arising due to differences between the transaction date rates and the rates at the dates of payment are recognised in financial income and expenses in the income statement. Receivables, payables and other monetary items in foreign currencies that have not been settled at the balance sheet date are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Any differences between the exchange rates at the balance sheet date and the transaction date rates are recognised in financial income and expenses in the income statement; however, see the section on hedge accounting. Income Statement Music revenue Koda's music revenue is recognised in the income statement under the completed-contract method when music has been used before the balance sheet date, and Koda has acquired the right to the revenue on behalf of its members. 4
Accounting Policies Administrative expenses Administrative expenses comprise expenses for staff, premises, office supplies, etc with deduction of reimbursements received. Staff expenses comprise salaries and payroll related expenses. Depreciation and impairment losses Depreciation and impairment losses comprise depreciation and impairment of projects and operating equipment. Income from investments in group enterprises The item Income from investment in subsidiary includes the profit/loss for the year. Other operating income/expenses Other operating income and other operating expenses comprise items of a secondary nature to the core activities of the Society, including gains and losses on the sale of operating equipment and properties. Financial income and expenses Financial income and expenses comprise return on portfolios etc and are recognised in the income statement at the amounts relating to the financial year. Tax Tax on profit for the year is recognised in the Financial Statements of the Society under the provisions applying to trade associations. Balance Sheet Receivables Receivables are recognised at market value, usually corresponding to the invoiced amount. Other receivables are recognised in the balance sheet at amortised cost, which substantially corresponds to nominal value. The value is reduced by provisions for bad debts according to principles determined on the basis of the Society s experience from past years and of an individual assessment of each receivable. Securities Securities are measured at market value at the balance sheet date. Unrealised price gains/losses at the balance sheet date and realised price gains/losses from sale are included in the item Net financial income" in the income statement. 5
Accounting Policies Development projects Development projects are recognised at Koda s share of internal and external project costs. Development projects comprise external consultant assistance, salaries and other expenses directly and indirectly related to the development activities of the Society. Development projects that are clearly defined and identifiable and in respect of which the utilisation in the Society can be demonstrated, and where it is the intention to use the project, are recognised as assets. This applies if sufficient certainty exists that the value in use of future earnings can cover operating expenses as well as the development costs. Development projects that do not meet the criteria for recognition in the balance sheet are recognised as expenses in the income statement as incurred. Capitalised development costs are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses or at a lower recoverable amount. Development projects are amortised systematically over their useful lives which are assessed at five years. Properties Properties sold which have not been vacated at year end are recognised at selling price at the date of sale. Major refurbishments and improvements are capitalised as additions during the year. The value adjustment is recognised in the item Provision for revaluation of properties. No provision has been made for depreciation on buildings as it is assumed that the value of buildings may be maintained through maintenance on an ongoing basis. Ongoing maintenance is expensed in the year in which the expenses are incurred. Operating equipment and leasehold improvements Operating equipment and leasehold improvements are recognised at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Cost comprises the cost of acquisition and expenses directly related to the acquisition up until the time when the asset is ready for use. Depreciation based on cost reduced by any residual value is calculated on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives which are 3-5 years for operating equipment and 10 years for leasehold improvements. 6
Accounting Policies Investments in subsidiary and associate Investment in subsidiary is recognised at net asset value and investment in associate is recognised at cost. Subsidiary and associate with a negative net asset value are recognised at DKK 0. Any legal or constructive obligation of the Society to cover the negative balance of the enterprise is recognised as a liability. Prepayments Prepayments comprise prepaid expenses concerning rent, insurance premiums and subscriptions, etc. Financial debts Loans are measured at amortised cost which substantially corresponds to nominal value. 7
