</f:AddresseeOfAuditorsReportOnAuditedFinancialStatements><f:OpinionOnAuditedFinancialStatements contextRef="c174">We have audited the financial statements of Kavo UK ApS for the financial year 1 January - 31 December 2016, which comprise income statement, balance sheet, statement of changes in equity and notes including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act. 


In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company at 31 December 2016 and of the results of the Company operations for the financial year 1 January - 31 December 2016 in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act. 


</f:OpinionOnAuditedFinancialStatements><f:DescriptionOfQualificationsOfAuditedFinancialStatements contextRef="c174">Basis for Opinion



We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark. Our responsibilities under those standards and requirements are further described in the “Auditor’s Responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements” section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) and additional requirements applicable in Denmark, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these rules and requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 


</f:DescriptionOfQualificationsOfAuditedFinancialStatements><f:StatementOfExecutiveAndSupervisoryBoardsResponsibilityForFinancialStatements contextRef="c174">Management's Responsibility for the financial statements



Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act 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. 



In preparing the financial statements, Management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements unless Management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. 


</f:StatementOfExecutiveAndSupervisoryBoardsResponsibilityForFinancialStatements><f:StatementOfAuditorsResponsibilityForAuditAndAuditPerformed contextRef="c174">Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 



As part of an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:



Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.



Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Company's internal control.



Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by Management.



Conclude on the appropriateness of Management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusion is based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.



Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and contents of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that gives a true and fair view.




We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. 


</f:StatementOfAuditorsResponsibilityForAuditAndAuditPerformed><f:StatementOnManagementsReviewAuditorsReportOnAuditedFinancialStatements contextRef="c174">Statement on Management’s review



Management is responsible for Management’s review. 



Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover Management’s review, and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 



In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read Management’s review and, in doing so, consider whether Management’s review is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. 



Moreover, it is our responsibility to consider whether Management’s Review provides the information required under the Danish Financial Statements Act. 



Based on the work we have performed, we conclude that Management’s Review is in accordance with the financial statements and has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Danish Financial Statements Act. We did not identify any material misstatement of Management’s Review.

Effective 1 January 2016, the Company has adopted act no. 738 of 1 July 2015. This implies changes in the recognition and measurement in the following areas:  Dividend from investments in group enterprises and associated enterprises  Dividend from investments in group enterprises and associated enterprises must always be recognised in the income statement going forward. If the carrying amount of the net assets of subsidiaries exceeds cost, or if dividend exceeding the profit for the year is distributed, there will be indication of impairment, meaning that an impairment test must be conducted. Previously, dividend exceeding the subsidiary’s accumulated earnings would be set off against cost.   Measurement of investments in other securities  In prior years, investment in other securities has been measured in the Company’s balance sheet at fair value and related fair value adjustments has been recognised in the income statement. Effective for the financial year 2016 other securities are measured at cost reduced by write-down to net realizable value if this is lower. The comparative figures have been changed accordingly.   The policy change has affected profit before tax and profit for the year 2015 negatively by GBP 3,731 thousand. The balance sheet total at 31 December 2015 has decreased by GBP 4,836 thousand, and equity at 1 January 2016 has decreased by GBP 4,836 thousand.  Apart from the above new and changed presentation and disclosure requirements, which follow from act. no. 738 of 1 June 2015, the accounting policies are consistent with those of last year.
