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 believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a   basis for our opinion.   Independence   We are independent of the partnership in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for   Accountants' International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) and the   additional ethical requirements applicable in Denmark, and we have fulfilled our other ethical   responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code.   Management's responsibilities 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 partnership'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 partnership or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.   Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements   Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance as to 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 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 the financial statements.   As part of an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs and additional requirements applicable in   Denmark, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism 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 partnership'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 partnership'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 conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our   auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the partnership to cease to   continue as a going concern.   • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and contents of the financial statements, including   the note 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.   Statement on the Management's review   Management is responsible for the Management's review.   Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the 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 the Management's   review and, in doing so, consider whether the 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 the Management's review provides the information   required under the Danish Financial Statement Act.   Based on the work we have performed, we conclude that the 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 the Management's review.   EY Godkendt Revisionspartnerselskab EY Godkendt Revisionspartnerselskab 30700228 30700228 Thomas Hjortkjær Petersen State Authorised Public Accountant mne33748 Bjørn Würtz Rosendal State Authorised Public Accountant mne40039 Main activity of the partnership   Saga IV USD-B K/S (Saga IV USD-B) is a fund-of-funds with a geographical focus on investments in North   America. Investments are mainly made in small and mid market buy-out funds.   Performance in the financial year   The financial year resulted in a profit of USD 2.5 million, corresponding to an IRR of 44.2%. Gains on   investments in portfolio funds amounted to USD 2.5 million. Administrative expenses in the form of   management fee and fund operating expenses amounted to USD 0.1 million and adjustment of carried   interest amounted to USD 0.1 million.   In the financial year an amount of USD 7.4 million was distributed to the limited partners, bringing   accumulated distributions to USD 379.2 million, corresponding to 182.0% of the limited partners’ paid-in  capital.   A aggregate amount of USD 8.9 million was distributed from portfolio funds during the financial year, bringing   total distributions from portfolio funds to USD 395.2 million, corresponding to 194.3% of the capital   contributed to portfolio funds.   Investment activity   In the period from inception to 30 September 2025 Saga IV USD-B has invested in nine portfolio funds. All   the investments have been sold or liquidated as of 30 September 2025.   Since inception the portfolio funds have in general performed above expectations.   Cash resources   Saga IV USD-B’s cash resources as of 30 September 2025, include cash and cash equivalents and  outstanding commitments from the limited partners and are estimated as satisfactory to cover Saga IV USD-   B’s liabilities.   Recognition and measurement uncertainties   Investments in portfolio funds are measured at fair value. The measurement includes accounting estimates   and is, therefore, subject to uncertainty. Reference is made to note 1 for further information on measurement   of portfolio funds.   Special risk   Financial risk   The objective of Saga IV USD-B is to supply risk capital to the portfolio funds, and also to their investments in   competitive companies in the North American small and mid market. The highest factor of risk is therefore   the changes in the value of the companies in which Saga IV USD-B’s portfolio funds invest in, which to a  significant extent depend on the valuations of comparable listed companies on the quoted market. The   valuation of investments in portfolio funds is based on an estimate and could therefore be connected with   some degree of uncertainty.   Interest rate risk   Saga IV USD-B is less sensitive to the changes in interest rate levels.   Foreign exchange currency risk   Saga IV USD-B’s investments in portfolio funds have been made in USD. As the capital in Saga IV USD-B is  in USD the currency risk is considered insignificant.   Events after the end of the accounting period   There have been no events after the end of the financial year and to the signing of the annual report which   are considered of significance to the annual report.   Sustainability update (SFDR)   The investments underlying this financial product do not take into account the EU criteria for environmentally   sustainable economic activities.   Accounting policies   Accounting policies   The annual report of Saga IV USD-B K/S has been prepared in accordance with the Danish Financial   Statements Act for a reporting class B entity with the adjustments following the legal form and operating   activities of the partnership.   The annual report has been prepared in the functional currency USD.   General   Basis of recognition and measurement   Assets are recognised in the balance sheet when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow   to the partnership and the value of the asset can be reliably measured. Liabilities are recognised in the   balance sheet when an outflow of economic benefits is probable and when the liability can be reliably   measured.   On initial recognition, assets and liabilities are measured at cost. Subsequently, assets and liabilities   are measured as described below for each individual item.   Income is recognised in the income statement as earned, including value adjustments of financial   assets and liabilities measured at fair value or amortised cost. Equally, costs incurred to generate the   year’s earnings are recognised, including depreciation, amortization, impairment losses and provisions  as well as reversals as a result of changes in accounting estimates of amounts which were previously   recognised in the income statement.   Income Statement   Gains/losses on portfolio funds’ investments etc.   Gains/losses on portfolio funds’ investments include income from investments (dividend and interest),   realised and unrealised revaluations or depreciations of investments in portfolio funds.   Management fees and carried interest   The management fees and carried interest include management fee and carried interest for the period   according to the Limited Partnership Agreement.   Fund operating expenses   Fund operating expenses include cost incurred by the partnership.   Financial income and expenses   Financial income and expenses include interest.   Tax   The partnership is not independently liable to tax, and therefore no tax is charged to the profit and loss   account.   Balance sheet   Investments assets   Investments in portfolio funds and co-investments are measured in accordance with the IPEV Valuation   Guidelines or similar guidelines depending on the country of domicile of the portfolio funds, according   to which investments are measured at fair value. Revaluations are included in the profit and loss   account.   Investments in unlisted private equity funds are valued on the basis of the latest reporting received from   the respective sub-funds. The reports from the funds contain a valuation of the private equity fund,   including a valuation of each individual portfolio company. The value of a private equity fund consists   of the sum of the values of the portfolio companies in which the fund has invested in, and the value of   other net assets.   Outstanding investment commitments at the balance sheet date are disclosed as contingent liabilities   in the notes.   Other receivables   Other receivables are measured at amortised cost after deduction of write-down for anticipated losses.   Cash and cash equivalents   Cash and cash equivalents include cash funds in open accounts.   Other payables   Financial liabilities are recognised at the date of borrowing and are measured at amortised cost,   corresponding to the outstanding debt.   Other liabilities are measured at cost, usually corresponding to nominal value.   Foreign currency translation   Transactions in foreign currency are translated into USD according to the currency exchange rate at   the transaction date.   Investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable in foreign currency are translated into USD   according to the currency rate at the balance sheet date.   2480000 3380000 163000 41000 2276000 197000 30000 3153000 248000 59000 2524000 3212000 2524000 2524000 3212000 3212000 0 0 0 6399000 6399000 6399000 252000 252000 2062000 2314000 2314000 318000 318000 737000 1055000 7454000 208366000 -379244000 173066000 2188000 208366000 -371834000 170542000 7074000 126000 126000 126000 380000 380000 380000 2314000 7454000 Notes   1 Investments in portfolio funds   USD 1,000   30/9 2025   30/9 2024   Cost at 1 October   57,146   76,588   Additions in the year   0 0 Disposals in the year   -57,146   -19,442   Cost at 30 September   0 57,146   Revaluations at 1 October   -50,747   -64,438   Revaluations on disposals in the year   48,267   10,311   Revaluation in the year   2,480   3,380   Revaluations at 30 September   0 -50,747   Carrying amount at 30 September   0 6,399   Specification of revaluations in the year   Realised gains/losses on investments   1,263   -7,225   Unrealised gains/loss on investments   1,217   10,605   Gains/losses on investments   2,480   3,380   Investments in portfolio funds   The partnership has through investments in portfolio funds ownership of mainly unquoted   investments. The partnership has no controlling or significant influence on the portfolio funds in   which the partnership has invested.   The portfolio funds in which the partnership has invested all use common accepted guidelines for   measuring the fair value. The measuring of the fair value of the investments in underlying portfolio   companies are made by the managers of the portfolio funds.   Usually the partnership has no or very little information about specific methods and assumptions   used by the managers of the portfolio funds when measuring the fair value of the underlying   portfolio companies.   The manager’s valuation committee will assess and if considered necessary adjust the valuation of   the underlying portfolio companies. At the assessment of the fair value of the underlying portfolio   companies reported by the managers, information about the market conditions, company specific   information as well as information received through dialog with the managers of the portfolio funds   are used.   The value of a private equity fund is measured as the fair value of each investment in portfolio   companies owned by the fund with addition of other net assets in the fund. The valuation of a   portfolio company in a private equity fund is based on the industry, market position and earnings   capacity, and the (i) the peer group multiple, i.e. the market value of comparable listed companies,   (ii) transaction multiple in recent M&A transactions involving comparable companies, (iii) value   indications from potential buyers of the portfolio company, (iv) market value if the portfolio company   is publicly traded or (v) future expected proceeds, if there is a concluded agreement on the sale of   the portfolio company.   4 Limited partners   Outstanding   USD 1,000   Commitment   Paid-in   commitment   Limited partners   211,646   208,366   3,280   1 Investments in portfolio funds (continued)   The partnership invests in buy-out funds.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:   Level 1 – Inputs based upon priced for identical assets and liabilities in active markets  Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either  directly or indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active   Level 3 – Unobservable input  Fair market value measurements as of 30 September 2025   Quoted   Observable Unobservable   prices   input   input   USD 1,000   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Total   Investments in portfolio funds   0 0 0 0 Total   0 0 0 0 Fair market value measurements as of 30 September 2024   Quoted   Observable Unobservable   prices   input   input   USD 1,000   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Total   Investments in portfolio funds   0 0 6,399   6,399   Total   0 0 6,399   6,399   Notes   Note   2 Management fees etc.   1/10 2024 -   1/10 2023 -   USD 1,000   30/9 2025   30/9 2024   Management fee   30   28   Adjustment of carried interest   133   169   Management fees etc. in total   163   197   3 Fund operating expenses   The partnership has no employees.   5 Related parties   Manager   Manager: Saga Private Equity ApS, Amaliegade 24, 1., 1256 Copenhagen K   Transactions: Management fee.   General Partner   General Partner: Saga IV GP ApS, c/o Accura Advokatpartnerselskab, Tuborg Boulevard 1,   2900 Hellerup   Transactions: Administration fee.   Notes   Note   6 Contingent liabilities   Investment obligations   Commitment   Outstanding commitment   USD 1,000   Currency   USD   Currency USD   Commitment, USD   211,646   211,646   0 0 Total commitment, USD   211,646   0 The partnership has no contingent liabilities as of 30 September 2025.
