Accounting policies The annual report of H. Lundbeck A/S has been presented in accordance with the provisions of the Danish Financial Statements Act on reporting class D enterprises, the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), Danish accounting standards as well as the requirements otherwise imposed by the Copenhagen Stock Exchange on the presentation of financial statements for listed companies. The financial statements are presented in accordance with the IFRS standards and interpretations applicable to the financial year 2002. To facilitate the reading of the annual report, some of the information required by IFRS has been included in the financial review, which is regarded as an integral part of the annual report. The accounting policies applied in preparing the consolidated and parent financial statements are consistent with those of last year. Recognition and measurement Assets are recognised in the balance sheet if it is probable that any future economic benefits will flow to the Group and that the value of the asset can be measured reliably. Liabilities are recognised in the balance sheet if they are probable and can be measured reliably. On initial recognition assets and liabilities are measured at cost. Subsequently assets and liabilities are measured as described for each item below. Certain financial assets and liabilities are measured at amortised cost, implying the recognition of a constant effective rate of interest to maturity. Amortised cost is calculated as original cost less principal repayments and plus/less the cumulative amortisation of the difference between cost and the nominal amount. Recognition and measurement take into consideration gains, losses and risks that arise before the time of presentation of the annual report and that confirm or invalidate matters existing at the balance sheet date. Income is recognised in the income statement as earned and includes value adjustments of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value or amortised cost. In addition, expenses incurred to generate the income for the year are recognised, including depreciation, amortisation, impairment losses and provisions as well as reversals of amounts previously recognised in the income statement as a result of changed accounting estimates. Consolidated financial statements The consolidated financial statements comprise the parent H. Lundbeck A/S and subsidiaries controlled by the parent. Control is achieved where the parent directly or indirectly holds more than 50% of the voting rights or is otherwise able to exercise or actually exercises control. Companies in which the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the voting rights and exercises significant influence but not control are regarded as associates. The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis of the financial statements of the parent and the subsidiaries, which are all prepared in accordance with the Groups accounting policies. The consolidated financial statements are prepared by adding together uniform items and eliminating intercompany income and expenses, investments, balances and dividends as well as realised and unrealised gains and losses on transactions between the consolidated companies. Account is taken of the tax effect of these eliminations. In the consolidated financial statements, the carrying amount of the parents investments in subsidiaries has been offset against the parents proportionate share of the fair value of assets and liabilities at the time of acquisition. Newly acquired or newly formed companies are recognised in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Companies sold or discontinued are recognised up to the time of sale or discontinuance. Comparative figures are not restated for companies newly acquired or sold/discontinued. New acquisitions are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, according to which the identifiable assets and liabilities of the newly acquired companies are measured at fair value at the time of acquisition. Provision is made for restructuring expenses in the acquiree decided and announced in connection with the acquisition. Account is taken of the tax effect of the revaluations made. Positive balances (goodwill) between the cost and fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, including restructuring provisions, are recognised under intangible assets and amortised syste- 58 L U N D B E C K A N N UA L R E P O RT 2 0 0 3
