The annual report has been prepared in accordance with the Danish Company Accounts Act. Management’s responsibility for the annual report Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the annual report in accordance with the Danish Company Accounts Act. This responsibility includes designing, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of an annual report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and using appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. Auditor’s responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the annual report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Danish Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain a high level of assurance that the annual report is free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the annual report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement including the assessment of the risk of material misstatement in the annual report, whether due to fraud or error. In making the risk assessment, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the annual report 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. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the annual report. We believe that the audit evidence that we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Our audit did not result in any qualification. Opinion In our opinion, the annual report gives a true and fair view of the Group’s and Company’s assets and liabilist ties as well as financial position at 31 December 2008 and of the result of the Group’s and Company’s operations and the Group’s cash flows for the financial year 1 January – 31 December 2008 in accordance with the Danish Company Accounts Act.

To this shall be added service activities focusing on the above industries. The Company operates in the global market. The Company supplies technical solutions for the offshore industry within the following areas: piping, steel, electrical, instrumentation, communication, automation and fire protection. The complete solutions include design, production, installation and service. The key customer groups are operator and rig companies within the international offshore industry as well as international shipyards. Additionally, the Company supplies turnkey power plants for the industry and local infrastructure projects in various parts of the world. Special conditions regarding the annual accounts 2008 As of 1st July 2008 Semco Maritime acquired the Consultancy and Project Engineering Division of Delpro A/S to meet objective for additional competences in the high-voltage area. On the 30th November 2008 Semco Maritime AS in Norway acquired the Norwegian AGR Project Partner AS including subsidiary in order to bring additional engineering competences to the Norwegian activities. Development of activities and financial situation Results for the year The annual turnover amounts to DKK 1.569,0 million compared to DKK 1.281,6 million last year. Profit/loss on ordinary activities after tax amounts to DKK 33,2 million compared to DKK 43,4 million last year. The less satisfactory result in 2008 is due to a reasonable development in the parent company and an unsatisfactory outcome in the subsidiaries. The average number of employees in the financial year was 1.379 compared to 1.361 in 2007. As of 31st December 2008 the Company counted 1.461 employees compared to 1.388 employees at 31st December 2007. The development of the parent company has been as expected except that the power plant project in El Salvador is delayed, which has caused a postponement of turnover and earnings. In Norway, the amount of enquiries has been considerably lower than expected and the lack of own engineering competences in Norway has amplified the situation. This has led to an unsatisfactory result. The results from the remaining subsidiaries are as expected. The number of incoming orders in 2008 has been a little lower than expected. This is due to a delayed decision process for a number of large orders. The volume of orders at the end of 2008 is at a reasonable level. Investments During the year, investments have been made in improvements to existing production facilities and refurbishment of rented premises, a total of DKK 11,4 million. In addition, DKK 5,1 million have been invested in technical systems and other operating equipment. Capital resources Semco Maritime has a solvency ratio of 23,8% (2007: 16,3%) corresponding to an equity of DKK 118,7 million as per 31 December 2008 (2007: DKK 128,1 million). Expectations for the future The large drop in oil prices and the general lack of venture capital have reduced activity in our markets. However, the Company expects that turnover and earnings in 2009 will be on the same level as in 2008. 8</description><a10:updated>2011-02-11T09:14:42+01:00</a10:updated></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=9</guid><link>http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=9</link><title>Semco Maritime Page 9</title><description>SEMCO MARITIME A/S Annual Report 2008 Registration No. 25 49 07 62 Management’s review Special risks General risks The oil and gas industry is characterised by a cyclical level of activity, affected by the price on crude oil and the dollar rate. Traditionally, the global marine and yard industry is sensitive to the states of the market. All in all this affects the operating risk of the business units. It is essential to the Company to be ahead of the technological development within all business areas. Financial risks The loan financing of the Company is exposed to changes in the level of interest. Foreign exchange risks The continuous operation is exposed to foreign exchange risks. The Company invoices in DKK, USD, EUR, NOK, SGD and GBP while a considerable part of the purchasing is in DKK, EUR and NOK. Foreign exchange risks are mainly hedged by forward exchange contracts, but also by purchasing and invoicing in the same currency. Knowledge resources The knowledge level achieved by the Company is based on competence development, supplementary education, retention of staff and an inspiring, developing and challenging working environment as well as employment of employees with complementary expertise. The Group continuously develops the knowledge level, so that it becomes a positive part of the group image, thus amplifying the market opportunities for the Group. Knowledge is the Group’s natural formula for success. Consequently, Semco Maritime wishes to develop a knowledge level, which can increase the possibilities of the Company to achieve new business areas within existing and new areas. Environmental considerations Based on the major environmental impacts and from a technological and financial point of view we will reduce the impacts to a minimum by ensuring the most effective utilisation of resources through reduction of energy consumption, volumes of waste and discharge into the environment. The Group will ensure that all new energy intensive equipment is as energy efficient as possible. The internal consumption of energy is attempted reduced by means of various initiatives. Semco Maritime will maintain an efficient waste separation system, which ensures that the maximum amount of waste is recycled. Finally, Semco Maritime will try to reduce the number of chemicals by means of well-structured chemical control. 9</description><a10:updated>2011-02-11T09:14:42+01:00</a10:updated></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=10</guid><link>http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=10</link><title>Semco Maritime Page 10</title><description>SEMCO MARITIME A/S Annual Report 2008 Registration No. 25 49 07 62 Annual accounts for the period 1 January – 31 December 2008 Applied accounting policies Accounts 2008 in general The annual accounts 2008 for the Group and Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules of the Danish Company Accounts Act for major class C-companies. Reclassification As a result of a change in the Danish Company Accounts Act passed in 2008, the inclusion of profit shares in subsidiaries and associated companies has been changed in the profit and loss statement. Our profit shares in subsidiaries and associated companies have so far been included in two entries on the profit and loss statement divided into results before tax and tax on results for the year. In future, profit shares in subsidiaries and associated companies are to be included in one line as results after tax. Comparative figures from previous years have also been adjusted to the revised classification. Foreign currency translation Foreign currency transactions are translated to the rate at the transaction date. Foreign currency differences arising between the transaction date and at the date of payment are recognised in the profit and loss statement as a financial item. Receivables, debts and other monetary items denominated in foreign currencies, which have not been settled at the balance sheet date, are translated to the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. The difference between the exchange rates at the balance sheet date and at the date at which the receivables or debts arose is recognised in the profit and loss statement as financial income and expenses. Fixed assets with another currency than DKK are translated to the rate of exchange at the transaction date. All the present foreign subsidiaries of the Company are considered independent units. The profit and loss statements of the subsidiaries are translated to an average rate of exchange for the year and the balance sheet items are translated to the rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation of the opening balance of equity of foreign operations to the exchange rates at the balance sheet date and on translation of the profit and loss statements from the average exchange rates at the transaction date to the exchange rates at the balance sheet date are recognised directly in equity. Exchange differences related to hedging transactions, which serve to hedge a net investment in foreign subsidiaries, are recognised directly in equity. Derivative financial instruments Derivative financial instruments are recognised in the balance sheet at cost price the first time and subsequently measured at fair value. Changes of the fair value of the derivative financial instruments, classified as and fulfilling the criteria of securing the fair value of a recognised asset or liability, are included in the profit and loss statement together with changes of the fair value of the secured asset or liability. Changes of the fair value of derivative financial instruments, classified as and fulfilling the criteria of securing the future assets and liabilities, are recognised in other assets/liabilities or in the equity capital. In case the future transaction results in assets or liabilities being recognised, the amount, which has been set aside in the equity capital, is transferred from the equity capital and recognised in the cost price for the asset or liability. In case the future transaction results in profits or costs, the amount, which has been set aside under the equity capital, is transferred to the profit and loss statement in the period during which the provision is recognised in the profit and loss statement. 10</description><a10:updated>2011-02-11T09:14:42+01:00</a10:updated></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=11</guid><link>http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=11</link><title>Semco Maritime Page 11</title><description>SEMCO MARITIME A/S Annual Report 2008 Registration No. 25 49 07 62 Annual accounts for the period 1 January – 31 December 2008 Changes of the fair value of any derivative financial instruments, which do not fulfil the criteria for hedging instruments, are recognised in the profit and loss statement under financial items. Consolidated accounts The consolidated accounts comprise the parent company Semco Maritime A/S and all companies of which the parent company holds more than 50% of the share capital or which it, in some other way, controls. The consolidated accounts have been prepared as a consolidation of the parent company’s and the individual subsidiaries’ financial accounts prepared according to the Group accounting policies. On consolidation, intra-group income and expenses, shareholdings, intra-group balances and dividends, and realised and unrealised gains on intra-group transactions are eliminated. Investments in associated companies are measured at the pro rata share of these companies’ book net asset value reduced by a proportionate part of unrealised intercompany gains. Jointly managed joint ventures are consolidated pro rata. Companies over which the Group exercises significant influence, but which it does not control, are considered associates. Significant influence is generally obtained by direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 20% of the voting rights / share capital / ownership share, but less than 50%. Companies acquired or formed during the year are recognised in the consolidated accounts from the date of acquisition or formation. Sold or ceased companies are included in the consolidated accounts to the date of sale or date of expiry. Comparative figures and main figures will not be corrected for newly acquired or sold companies. At the date of acquisition the difference between the acquisition price and the net asset value of the acquired company is assessed after the various assets and liabilities have been adjusted to values, which reflect the fair value of the assets and liabilities to Semco Maritime A/S. Where the acquisition price surpasses the stated net asset value at the date of acquisition, the difference of the acquisition year is used as consolidated goodwill and is depreciated over 10-20 years. Any negative balance (badwill), which can be related to future losses, is recognised under accrued expenses and credited concurrently with the realisation of the loss. Upon statement of consolidated result and consolidated net capital, the pro rata share of the result and net capital of associated companies, which can be related to minority interests, is stated separately. 11</description><a10:updated>2011-02-11T09:14:42+01:00</a10:updated></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=12</guid><link>http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=12</link><title>Semco Maritime Page 12</title><description>SEMCO MARITIME A/S Annual Report 2008 Registration No. 25 49 07 62 Annual accounts for the period 1 January – 31 December 2008 Profit and loss statement Net turnover The company carries out a large amount of contract work, which is why the production criteria are used. In accordance herewith the sales value of the annual production is recognised in the profit and loss statement concurrently with the completion of the production. Expected losses on unfinished contracts are fully recognised. Other income from sale of goods and services is recognised in the profit and loss statement, in case delivery has taken place before the end of the year. Result of investments in affiliated/associated companies The result of investments in affiliated/associated companies includes the proportional shares of the results before tax in affiliated/associated companies after full elimination of internal profit/loss and deduction of depreciation of goodwill. Financial income and expenses Dividend on shares is credited in the year when the dividend is adopted and distributed. Interest income and interest expenditures are included in the profit and loss statement with the amounts of the financial year. Profits and losses due to fluctuation in securities are included in the profit and loss statement. Depreciations Tangible and intangible fixed assets are straight-line depreciated over their estimated lives. Depreciations are made on the basis of acquisition prices pro rata: Consolidated goodwill Development projects Buildings Fixtures in buildings Leasehold improvements Technical plants and machinery Operating equipment, furniture and fittings Motorcars Rental material Taxes Semco Maritime is jointly taxed with the parent company C.W. Obel A/S and a number of Danish subsidiaries. The current Danish corporation tax is allocated between the jointly taxed Danish companies in proportion to their taxable income (full allocation with reimbursement concerning tax losses). The jointly taxed companies are part of the prepaid tax arrangement. Tax for the year comprises current tax and changes in deferred tax for the year. The tax expense relating to the profit/loss for the year is recognised in the income statement, and the tax expense relating to income and expenses recognised in equity is recognised directly in equity. Tax recognised in the profit and loss statement is classified as tax of ordinary activities and tax of extraordinary items respectively. The change in deferred tax as a result of changes in tax rates is recognised in the profit and loss statement. 12 10-20 years 5 years max. 50 years 10 - 25 years max. 10 years 5 years 3-5 years 5-7 years 10 years</description><a10:updated>2011-02-11T09:14:42+01:00</a10:updated></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=13</guid><link>http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=13</link><title>Semco Maritime Page 13</title><description>SEMCO MARITIME A/S Annual Report 2008 Registration No. 25 49 07 62 Annual accounts for the period 1 January – 31 December 2008 Current tax receivables and liabilities are entered in the balance with an amount based on the expected tax income of the year adjusted for tax of taxable income of previous years and for prepaid tax. Deferred tax of all temporary differences between book value and tax value of assets and liabilities is recognised. However, no deferred tax is booked of tax liabilities on investments in affiliated and associated companies. Deferred tax value of loss, which should be carried forward for balancing of future tax income, is included with expected value. The deferred tax is calculated in accordance with current tax rules and the current tax rate. 13</description><a10:updated>2011-02-11T09:14:42+01:00</a10:updated></item><item><guid isPermaLink="true">http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=14</guid><link>http://ipaper.ipapercms.dk/SemcoMaritime/Annualaccounts/Annualaccounts2008/?Page=14</link><title>Semco Maritime Page 14</title><description>SEMCO MARITIME A/S Annual Report 2008 Registration No. 25 49 07 62 Annual accounts for the period 1 January – 31 December 2008 Balance sheet Intangible fixed assets Consolidated goodwill is recognised as an asset at cost price in the year of purchase and is depreciated over 10-20 years. Tangible fixed assets Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost price less depreciations made. Expenses incurred in order to improve the buildings compared to their standard at the time of acquisition are activated and depreciated as supplement to the acquisition price of the buildings. Leasing Leasing contracts concerning tangible fixed assets, in which the company has all essential risks and advantages involved in the proprietary right (financial leasing), are included in the balance sheet at current value of the leasing asset and the present value of the future leasing fees at the time of acquisition. When calculating the current value, the internal interest rate of the leasing agreement is used as discounting factor or an approximate value hereof. Financially leased assets are depreciated like the other fixed tangible assets of the company. The remaining capitalised leasing liability is included in the balance sheet as a liability, and the interest of the leasing liability is currently recognised in the profit and loss statement. All other leasing contracts are considered operational leasing. Payments in connection with operational leasing are included in the profit and loss statement in the leasing period. Affiliated/associated companies Investments in affiliated companies and associates are measured according to the equity method, i.e. at a value corresponding to the proportionate share of such companies’ equity less unrealised intercompany profits. Affiliated companies with negative equity value are measured at DKK 0. In addition, amounts owed by such affiliated companies are written down by the parent company’s share of the negative equity value. Any remaining amount is recognised in the balance sheet under provisions. Stocks Stocks are measured at the lower of historical cost in accordance with the FIFO method or the net realisable value. Obsolete or slow-moving items are written down. Debtors Debtors are measured at amortised cost price or at a lower net realisable value, which corresponds to nominal value less write-down for meeting losses. The write-downs are made on the basis of an individual estimate of the various creditors. Work in progress against customers’ contracts is measured at sales value based on the degree of completion at balance day. The degree of completion of contracts is determined as the relation between costs paid to date and the total costs expected for completion of the contract. The sales value is reduced by progress billings and provisions against estimated losses.
