Confident, Focused, and Built for the AI Data Center Era

2025 was a pivotal year for Napatech. We entered the year with a bold ambition: to transform Napatech into an indispensable acceleration platform for the AI data center era. Today, we stand stronger, more focused, and better positioned than at any point in our history. Our financial performance, technology leadership, and expanding ecosystem all point to one conclusion-Napatech is on the right trajectory, and the opportunity ahead of us is larger than ever.

We delivered 33% annual revenue growth in 2025, with Q4 revenue rising 48% year-over-year, supported by stable 70% gross margins. We improved EBITDA by DKK 28 million in 2025, reduced net working capital from DKK 99 million to DKK 83 million, and strengthened our cash position to DKK 127 million up from DKK 64 million in 2024. These results reflect a disciplined execution and a business model that is scaling with efficiency and purpose. Our successful NOK 200 million capital raise early in the year enabled us to support a rapidly expanding design-win pipeline.

And the true story of 2025 extends beyond the numbers.

We deepened our strategic partnerships with industry leaders, including a tier-1 server OEM, Altera, Intel, and AI-inference innovator d-Matrix. The launch of the JetStream AI networking interface card-highlighted across industry and financial press-underscored Napatech's relevance in next-generation AI data center architectures. Our R&D organization delivered every milestone for our lead customers on time and to specification, even as requirements grew more complex and timelines more demanding.

We strengthened our ecosystem with partners across AI infrastructure, cybersecurity, fintech, mobile networking, and network monitoring. Companies such as Broadcom-Symantec, Ei-deticom, Myrtle.ai, Xelera, Kontron, Supermicro, A5G, and Tru-minds are helping us bring complete, market-defining solutions to customers worldwide.

We also remained laser-focused on design wins-the engine of our long-term growth. In 2025, we secured 27 unique design

wins, each representing a future revenue stream and a validation of our technology. These wins came from both direct engagements and our expanding partner ecosystem, demonstrating the scalability of our go-to-market model.

Across the industry, the forces shaping the next decade are unmistakable. AI workloads are exploding. Data movement is becoming the new bottleneck. Enterprises and cloud providers are rearchitecting their infrastructure around acceleration, efficiency, and security.

This is the world Napatech was built for.

Our SmartNIC and DPU platforms-powered by Altera and In-tel-are aligned with the highest-growth segments of AI, storage, networking, cybersecurity, and fintech. Our software investments are enabling scalable, repeatable solutions that can be deployed broadly across the mass market. And our leadership team, strengthened with seasoned industry veterans, is focused on disciplined execution and long-term value creation.

As we enter 2026, Napatech is operating from a position of momentum, clarity, and confidence. We have a strong financial foundation, a differentiated technology roadmap, a growing ecosystem, and a design-win pipeline that will anchor our growth for years to come.

Most importantly, we have a clear mission: to become the acceleration platform of the AI data center era-and to deliver sustainable, long-term value for our shareholders.

We are executing with conviction. We are investing with purpose. And we are building a company designed to lead.

Napatech's future is bright, and we are just getting started. Fully committed and focused,

Kartik Srinivasan

Chief Executive Officer

High-Performance Networking Powering Core and AI Infrastructure

Napatech addresses two structurally converging markets - Core infrastructure and AI infrastructure - both of which increasingly depend on deterministic, hardware-accelerated networking to deliver predictable performance, efficiency, and economic value at scale.

Across both markets, traditional best-effort networking is reaching its limits. Modern data centers are no longer defined solely by bulk throughput, but by distributed, latency-critical systems where tail latency, jitter, and predictability directly determine application performance and business outcomes.

This shift is being driven by:

• Scale-out AI inferencing pipelines

• Retrieval-augmented generation and data-intensive work flows

• Real-time control and decision systems

• Multi-tenant, mixed-criticality infrastructure

  In these environments, the network sits on the critical execution path.

  Core Infrastructure Market: Where Determinism Is Mission-Critical

  In enterprise, cloud, telecom, government, and regulated environments, infrastructure workloads already demand deterministic performance.

  These systems support:

• Networking and Security Microservices

• Storage acceleration and data movement

• Network and Application Monitoring

• 5G mobile packet core with user plane functions

• Financial services and ultra-low latency systems

  Here, performance variability is not acceptable. Predictability, reliability, and efficiency define system value.

  Napatech's programmable NICs are embedded in performance-critical systems by delivering:

• Predictable low tail latency

• Line-rate processing under real-world load

• CPU isolation and offload

• Deterministic traffic handling

This market represents Napatech's durable core infrastructure foundation.

AI Infrastructure Market: Where Networking Becomes Part of the Compute Engine

Unlike training workloads, inferencing systems are highly distributed, latency-sensitive, and economically driven by efficiency at scale. Inferencing pipelines increasingly involve fan-out and fan-in across accelerators, memory, storage, and services.

In these systems, networking is no longer passive connectivity

- it becomes a core component of the inference engine itself.

System performance and cost per inference now depend on:

• Predictable tail latency

• Intelligent traffic steering

• Hardware-accelerated data movement

• Offload of critical control and processing functions

  Across hyperscalers, tier-2, neo-cloud, and sovereign cloud environments, as well as on-prem enterprise deployments, achieving this level of determinism increasingly requires specialized networking capabilities. While hyperscalers often rely on custom silicon and vertically integrated fabrics, the broader market must achieve similar outcomes using open, commercially supported infrastructure - creating a large and expanding opportunity for programmable, deterministic networking platforms.

  This market represents an unprecedented growth opportunity, driven by the structural need for deterministic, high-performance programmable networking in AI infrastructure.

  Napatech's Moat: Determinism Through Software Excellence

  While programmable NIC hardware is increasingly available, true differentiation lies in software. Napatech's competitive moat is its deep, production-proven software platform that transforms programmable silicon into deterministic, high-per-formance data planes.

  This platform enables:

• Application-aware packet processing directly in hardware

• Fine-grained flow control and steering

• Predictable latency under congestion and scale

• Efficient offload of complex networking functions

Years of hardware-software co-design expertise allow Napatech to deliver capabilities that are extremely difficult to replicate with commodity NICs or software-only acceleration.

AI inferencing is rapidly emerging as the primary driver of

modern data center growth.

Turnkey and Frontier Solutions Across Core and AI Infrastructure

Napatech's programmable NIC portfolio is strategically positioned across two complementary solution domains:

Turnkey Solutions

Full-stack packaged platforms developed by Napatech, delivering deterministic performance for Core & AI infrastructure workloads including security, storage, telecom, monitoring, and regulated systems.

These solutions:

• Drive repeatable, scalable revenue

• Enable rapid deployment across established architectures

• Deliver predictable performance with operational efficiency

  Frontier Solutions

  Advanced programmable platforms leveraging Napatech hardware and foundational software while partnering with Independent Software Vendor (ISVs) as needed.

  These solutions:

• Power distributed, latency-sensitive AI inferencing environments

• Maximize performance through hardware-accelerated data movement and intelligent traffic steering

  
  
  

• Require focused investment and deep customer collaboration

• Capture immediate growth in structurally expanding AI markets

Turnkey solutions scale proven infrastructure with efficiency and repeatability.

Frontier solutions operate at the cutting edge of AI data center design - delivering performance advantages that materially impact system economics.

Together, this portfolio allows Napatech to drive durable revenue while expanding aggressively into high-growth AI infrastructure where smart networking is becoming foundational.

Strategic Positioning for the Next Data Center Era Napatech sits at the intersection of two structurally converging markets - core infrastructure and AI infrastructure - both increasingly dependent on deterministic, hardware-ac-celerated networking. Through a focused portfolio of Turnkey Solutions that scale proven workloads and Frontier Solutions that unlock cutting-edge AI performance, Napatech is uniquely positioned to deliver predictable, efficient, and economically scalable systems. As data centers continue to decentralize and intensify in performance demands, deterministic networking becomes architectural necessity - compounding Napatech's strategic relevance and long-term growth opportunity.

Group Key Figures and Ratios Annual Report 2025 10

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Revenue increased by 33% in USD. Revenue of USD 22.2 million in 2025 was within our latest expectations, whereas the revenue of DKK 146.6 million in 2025 was slightly below the latest guidance of DKK 150-190 million provided in November 2025 mainly due to foreign exchange and a few orders being postponed into 2026.

Our gross margin was 69%, an increase of 1%-point compared to 2024, and within the latest guidance of 69-71%. Staff costs incl. staff costs transferred to development costs & Other external costs amounted to DKK 167.1 million, being below the latest guidance of DKK 170-180 million due to various cost saving initiatives implemented. This also impacted the staff costs transferred to development costs, which amounted to DKK 6.6 million and ended below the latest guidance of DKK 8-12 million.

EBITDA of DKK -58.6 million ended within the derived guidance range due to the lower Staff costs & Other external costs.

To support the next steps forward with our current customers and expanding design-win pipeline, Napatech successfully completed a private placement capital raise of NOK 200 million (DKK 130.7 million).

FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT (2024 FIGURES IN BRACKETS)

In 2025, Napatech generated a total revenue of DKK 146.6 million (DKK 116.4 million), representing an increase of 26%. The increase reflects a pick-up in the 2025 market compared to the challenging market conditions faced in 2024. Revenue from Engineering Services was at the same level as 2024. Revenue from SmartNIC Products increased 26% in 2025 compared to 2024. Revenue in North America increased 26% in 2025 compared to 2024, and revenue in Rest of the World increased 27% in 2025 compared to 2024.

The gross margin in 2025 was 69% compared to 68% in 2024. The increase in the gross margin reflects an increase in the gross margin for SmartNIC. The average gross margin on our SmartNIC grew from 67% in 2024 to 69% in 2025.

In 2025, our Staff costs and Other external costs, before staff costs transferred to capitalized development costs, amounted to DKK 167.1 million, compared to DKK 171.8 million in 2024. The change from 2024 is due to reduced costs of subcontractors and personnel during 2025 to balance our costs to the revenue. Staff costs transferred to development costs in 2025 amounted to DKK 6.6 million compared to DKK 6.2 million in 2024.

EBITDA in 2025 was negative DKK 58.6 million compared to negative DKK 86.3 million in 2024. Depreciation, amortization, and impairment in 2025 were DKK 22.1 million compared to DKK

29.3 million in 2024.

The result for the year was negative DKK 80.7 million (negative DKK 111.3 million).

Napatech had total assets of DKK 272.0 million on December 31, 2025, compared with DKK 229.9 million on December 31, 2024. The increase of DKK 42.0 million reflects an increase in current assets of DKK 54.6 million primarily related to increases in cash and cash equivalents due to the private placement, increase in trade receivables due to large orders late in 2025 partly countered by a decline in inventories following a focused effort to reduce the levels and a decline in non-current assets of DKK 12.6 million primarily due to a lower level of development costs.

Napatech's total liabilities were DKK 67.3 million on December 31, 2025, compared to DKK 76.5 million on December 31, 2024. The decrease in total liabilities was driven by a decrease in interest-bearing loans and borrowings.

The group's equity at the end of the year was DKK 204.7 million (DKK 153.4 million).

The group has in-house development resources, developing new products and new functionality. The group also engages external consultants for specific development projects. In 2025 DKK 8.1 million was capitalized (DKK 6.7 million).

The group had a positive net change in cash of DKK 63.1 million (positive DKK 22.0 million). The net change in cash was impacted by a positive net cash flows from financing activities of DKK 107.7 million due to a capital raise in May 2025, where Napatech raised DKK 130.7 million in gross proceeds from a private placement of 10,000,000 shares which was partly offset by a negative free cash flow of DKK 42.2 million primarily due to the negative EBITDA.

FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT IN THE PARENT COMPANY

Net revenues for the parent company in 2025 came in at DKK

118.7 million (DKK 87.8 million), representing an increase of 35%. The EBITDA in the parent company for 2025 was negative DKK 61.2 million (negative DKK 88.1 million), and the result before tax was negative DKK 87.8 million (DKK 118.3 million). The same developments as in the group are taking place.

See note 27 in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for more information on financial risk management objectives and policies.

LEGAL MATTERS

There are currently no significant legal proceedings involving any company in the Napatech group.

GROUP ENTITIES

The United States subsidiary has an office in Portsmouth, NH.

With performance in the middle of the guided ranges, EBITDA

would be negative around DKK 25 million, and units sold would be around 9,700 which is slightly lower than earlier communicated following a shift to high value products coming with a higher average selling price.

The Company is exposed to risks that might affect our ability to reach our goals, such as currency fluctuations, general market uncertainty, and material changes in our large OEMs' needs for Napatech's products.

Additionally, in 2025 and ongoing in 2026, we have seen increasing market uncertainty, particularly related to potential trade barriers, including tariff increases in the United States. With our products manufactured in the US and the majority of our customers also located in the US, the group is not significantly exposed. However, the lack of predictability and uncertainty surrounding tariff increases is a concern, and we will be monitoring the development closely.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The Company's Board of Directors recognizes the importance of good Corporate Governance. This is ensured through interaction between shareholders, the Board of Directors, and the administration. Napatech's goal is that all interested parties are confident that the group's activities are carried out acceptably and that the governing body has sufficient insight and influence to undertake their functions.

The communication between the Company and shareholders primarily takes place at the annual general meeting, quarterly reporting, and via company announcements. The company shareholders are encouraged to subscribe to our newsletter service to receive company news via email.

Guidelines on Corporate Governance are approved annually by the Board of Directors or when deemed necessary.

Napatech A/S is subject to Danish law but is listed on Euronext Oslo. Napatech follows the Danish recommendations for good Corporate Governance. The Company follows the majority of the Danish recommendations for good Corporate Governance except for a few areas where Napatech has chosen a different approach compared to the recommendations. The statutory report on Corporate Governance is available at http://www.na-patech.com/corporate-governance/report2025.

The Board of Directors has established two committees within the Board: the Remuneration Committee and the Audit Committee, which both are sub-committees of the Board (the Board committees report to the Board of Directors) and operate according to the established internal procedures for each committee decided by the Board of Directors.

Nomination

Committee

Board of Directors

Remuneration Committee

Audit Committee

The Remuneration Committee is composed of three members of the Board of Directors. Patricia Kummrow is the Chairman of the Remuneration Committee, and Lynnn Comp and Zane Ball are members.

The Remuneration Committee handles the Company's remuneration policy and program and presents recommendations to the

Board of Directors for decision according to its meeting protocols and underlying material prepared. The committee annually evaluates the CEO's remuneration and presents recommendations to the Board of Directors for a decision. When the Company's remuneration policy proposes a change, it is subject to approval in the annual general meeting. The committee has prepared a separate Remuneration Report to be presented at the annual general meeting. The remuneration report provides an overview of the total remuneration received by each member of the Board of Directors and the executive management board of Napatech. The report is available at http://www.na-patech.com/remuneration/report2025.

The Audit Committee is composed of two members of the Board of Directors. Svenn Tore Larsen is the Chairman of the committee, and Christian Jebsen is the other member. This committee supports the Board of Directors in fulfilling its responsibilities concerning financial reporting, auditing matters, internal control, and risk matters. The Audit Committee has two meetings per year with the company auditors.

The Company's Board of Directors shall have a diverse composition and competence tailored to meet the Company's needs. The Board of Directors' work complies with the Company's internal instructions, guidelines, and procedures for the Board members. The Board normally also carries out a self-assessment of its activities and competence.

The Company's corporate governance guidelines, including the annual Corporate Governance status, can be found in the investor relations section https://www.napatech.com/investor-relations.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The group is, due to its normal course of business, exposed to many risk factors. The group operates in a technology market that could change the need for the solutions that Napatech provides. The customers are mainly large tier-one customers with normal credit terms. The group is not significantly exposed to credit risks, but as some customers are large, the outstanding amounts can potentially be substantial.

The group is exposed to operational risks due to the dependence on suppliers to deliver both components and the finished products necessary to recognize revenue. The group's growth partly depends on the delivery and adoption of new products and functionalities by the market.

As the group has all revenue in USD, as well as some financial assets in USD, there is a risk that fluctuations in the USD exchange rate will affect our financial performance.

See notes 3 and 27 in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for more information on risks and uncertainties.

RISK MANAGEMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROL

Managing risk related to the group's financial performance is controlled by our CFO. The Board of Directors receives monthly financial reports from the finance department, including key financial and operational performance indicators. The Company presents interim management statements for Q1, Q3, and Q4 and a half-year report per IAS 34 to the market.

DATA ETHICS POLICY

In compliance with the requirements under section 99(d) of the Danish Financial Statements Act, Napatech has implemented a data ethics policy. Napatech complies with both Danish and EU laws on data and privacy protection, and we recognize that thoughtful and responsible decision-making guided by internal policies can be needed as laws and regulations sometimes do not necessarily provide clear ethical guidance.

Napatech wants to be perceived as a respected, competent, and proper business partner who complies with current legislation and follows developments in good data ethics. We aspire to treat all the data we produce as part of our daily operations ethically

and responsibly, and our approach to the handling of data is based on three key principles: trust, integrity, and security.

Napatech uses and processes data, both nonpersonal data and personal data. We collect data regarding Napatech employees for administrative purposes and contact details on customers and their employees so we can deliver our consultancy services. We also collect data from our webpage mainly for marketing purposes and data directly from our customers when we create customer accounts in our systems.

To earn the trust of our customers, employees, and shareholders, we process all data with the utmost respect for the sensitivity of the data and any privacy rights. We do not buy or sell customer data to third parties, and we do not use artificial intelligence and machine learning in the analysis of any data. Making sure that our processing activities and security measures match the requirements for the data we are handling, we always apply our standards for data ethics to the way we work, whether we process personal data or other types of data.

CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

In 2025, Napatech continued its efforts around the ESG development initiative. Napatech has taken the first steps towards the sustainability reporting requirements, including the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) that underpin it.

Reporting on the CSRD is a significant undertaking, and while Napatech is not legally obligated to report on CSRD, we have chosen to proactively enhance our sustainability reporting with some of the elements deemed relevant. The sustainability statement is prepared with reference to the ESRS. We have aimed to implement the key principles of the standards and to align them as closely as possible with the other sections of our annual report, demonstrating our steadfast commitment to sustainability.

Our CSR reporting for 2025 regarding section 99a of the Danish Financial Statements Act on corporate social responsibility stated below is therefore based on the material topics determined by the ESRS guidelines.

  DOUBLE MATERIALITY ASSESSMENT

  The starting point for Napatech's sustainability reporting is the materiality assessment performed by our management and Board of Directors. As a key element of our work to prepare for CSRD reporting, we have conducted a double materiality assessment following the ideas of the ESRS guidelines.

  We have assessed how we affect the environment and society (impact materiality) and how sustainability issues can affect us financially (financial materiality). All evaluated impacts and risks are linked to their corresponding topical ESRS standard. The topic's highest-scored impact or risk decides the position in our double materiality matrix. We based our value chain assessments on internal knowledge and mostly looked at our first-tier suppliers.

  In our impact assessment, we considered both positive and negative effects and current and future effects related to sustainability. In our financial assessment, we measured possible sustainability-related risks that could have a negative financial impact on our business. We applied the ESRS guidance and used three criteria of 'scale', 'scope', and 'irremediable character' to assess the 'severity' of our actual impacts. Due to the complexity of assigning exact values for possible sustainability risk scenarios, we have primarily used qualitative assessments to evaluate the perceived risks when scoring them.

  The materiality threshold, set by our Board of Directors, is 'sig-nificant'. This means that impacts and risks perceived as 'signifi-cant' or higher, and the ESRS topic related to them, are considered material.

  MATERIAL ESRS TOPICS IN NAPATECH

  Our preliminary scoring of each ESRS topic highlights that the most important sustainability matters for Napatech are E1, E2, S1, S2, S4, and G1.

  
  
  

  ESRS STANDARD: ESRS E1 CLIMATE CHANGE

  Napatech is committed to conducting business operations in an environmentally responsible manner. Our strategy focuses on reducing emissions through energy efficiency, engaging with suppliers to lower our overall carbon footprint, and increasing the use of renewable energy.

  Napatech is using the Climate Compass provided by the Danish Business Authority to calculate its energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Our ambition is to reduce our carbon intensity. In 2025, efforts have mainly been focused on getting an overview of emissions. In 2026, further work with the Climate Compass is needed to increase our knowledge of the mechanism involved, set a specific target for reducing our carbon intensity and develop an implementation plan to achieve our target.

  Most emissions are scope three emissions. Emissions in scope two relate to electricity and heating, while emissions in scope one relates to the company car fleet. The only greenhouse gas emission that Napatech has and accounts for is carbon dioxide.

  Most scope three emissions are related to consultants and IT assets used for research and development activities, and the use of Napatech's sold products by the customers. As a global company, our business activities include travel, which impacts the environment.

  Napatech is looking into different ways to improve our energy efficiency and will consider getting more of our electricity from renewable sources. In the office, Napatech recycles plastic, shredded paper, and printer cartridges to minimize the environmental effects of the production hereof. We aim to minimize our travel activities by using virtual meetings whenever possible.

  ESRS STANDARD: ESRS E2 POLLUTION

  Napatech is committed to conducting business operations in an environmentally responsible manner. We must take responsibility, mitigate potential risks, and install countermeasures. We provide green solutions in the form of energy-efficient products that save on data center power consumption, and we strive for products to be recycled or disposed of safely.

  Napatech has a Conflict Mineral policy with the objective of only using tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (3TG) that originate from conflict-free sources. We require all of our suppliers to provide reports on the use and sourcing of conflict minerals in products they supply to Napatech. The information acquired from the reports is screened against the Responsible Minerals Initiative's smelter database, and corrective steps are taken when needed.

  The screening and data collection procedure is outsourced to Greensoft. Since 2018, all our products have been 100% conflict-free. Our commitment to achieving 100% conflict-free products is supported by our membership in the Responsible Minerals Initiative.

  Napatech has contracted with Greensoft Technology to collect material information on the components from our suppliers. Greensoft Technology contacts our suppliers and requests Full Material Disclosures for each component, when possible, and if not, declarations of compliance with the following industry standards and environmental requirements:

• RoHS-2 per EU Directive of 2011/65/EU and EU Directive of 2015/863/EU.

• REACH SVHC per EU Regulation EC/1907/2006 and ECHA's updated Candidate List.

• REACH Annex-17 per EU Regulation EC/1907/2006.

• Substances of Concern In Products (SCIP) and the SCIP database reference number - per EU Waste Framework Directive 2008/98/EC, including its amendments Directive (EU) 2018/851 and Regulation (EU) 2023/1542.

• EU Persistent Organic Pollutants (EU POPs) per EU Regulation EU 2019/1021.

• Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) per Regulation (EU) No 2024/590.

• Persistent, Bioaccumulative, and Toxic (PBT) substances as restricted under US Code of Federal Regulations Title 40, part 751, subpart E - "Regulation of Certain Chemical Substances and mixtures under section 6 of The Toxic Substances Control Act" (TSCA).

• Reporting and recordkeeping requirements for Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) under Section 8(a)(7) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA).

• Environmental Requirements per IBM Engineering Specification 46G3772.

To reduce the negative impact of waste materials on the environment and to protect human health, Napatech provides information to the European SCIP database about hazardous substances in our products. This information enables proper handling, recycling, and disposal of products containing hazardous substances and informs consumers about the presence of such substances.

Reporting on our compliance with various restrictions on substances under regulatory requirements such as RoHS, REACH/SVHC, POPs, ODS, TSCA-PBT, TSCA-PFAS, and others,

along with our sourcing of conflict minerals is a testament to our commitment to the environment and ethical responsibility.

As a manufacturing company, there is a risk that producing and delivering products to our customers will impact the environment. We work actively to limit adverse impacts that we cause or contribute to or that we are directly linked to through our business relationships. Napatech also supports and promotes environmental concerns with suppliers to help them conduct manufacturing activities in an environmentally safe and responsible manner.

Our products are assembled by a contract manufacturer who shares our ambitions for social responsibility. We investigate each component regularly, as declared in our conformance declarations. By adhering to regulatory rules and guidelines, Napatech ensures that its products are free from specific hazardous

substances that can cause significant harm to the environment and human health. When improperly disposed of, these substances can pollute our land, air, and water, posing serious environmental challenges. Furthermore, Napatech's conformance with environmental regulations is a testament to our commitment to environmental responsibility. For example, the REACH regulation is designed to protect human health and the environment from potential risks posed by chemicals. By complying with REACH, we ensure that the substances we use during manufacturing and in our products for the market are safe for both humans and the environment.

Furthermore, we work closely with our contract manufacturer in the US to improve their environmental performance through more efficient resource use and waste reduction. On our request, our contract manufacturer is ISO 14001 certified. During 2024, we continued discussing the initiatives under their environmental management system with our contract manufacturer to evaluate the effectiveness of the processes.

All our products are investigated and analyzed to comply with rules for substances and minerals. The following declarations apply to all Napatech products:

• RoHS Declaration of Compliance

• REACH Declaration of Compliance

• EU Declaration of Conformity

  We ensure that our products meet electromagnetic compatibility requirements. Accredited third parties verify all our products for electromagnetic compliance with international EMC standards. The declaration and report below cover all Napatech products:

• EU Declaration of Conformity

• EMC Test Reports

  Napatech has a regulatory compliance manager whose full-time job is to ensure that Napatech and our suppliers comply with the various legal requirements and certain ethical standards.

  ESRS STANDARD: ESRS S1 OWN WORKFORCE

  Napatech is committed to fostering a supportive and inclusive workplace. Napatech has a diversification strategy and employs more than 10 different nationalities. Salaries, positions, and duties are determined based on qualifications and experience. Our strategy promotes employee well-being, enhances diversity and inclusion, provides ongoing training and development, and ensures fair labor practices.

  Napatech adheres to national regulations on health, working environment, and safety. In Denmark, this includes regular inspections from the Danish Working Environment Authority, and Napatech has been awarded a 'green smiley' indicating that the company's work environment is satisfactory. In the US, Napatech provides a safe working environment following general guidelines from the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and carries Worker's Compensation Insurance. At Napatech, the Board regularly reviews overall results and plans for health, environment, and safety. In 2025, Napatech continued its focus on developing and retaining employees via structured Employee Development Interviews and increased the

  number of one-on-one employee satisfaction interviews. Employee satisfaction surveys are carried out every third year as part of the mandatory health and safety risk assessment.

  Our latest employee satisfaction survey from 2025 placed us well above the benchmark level overall. We detected ergonomics within the working environment as a focus area and a visit from an external provider has already been planned for Q1 2026 to help address it. All employees are offered counseling to prevent injuries due to sedentary computer work.

  In 2025, Napatech continued our focus on the physical working environment. There are policies in place around stress and harassment to ensure a healthy and safe working environment where employees can thrive and feel secure. This is for preventative reasons and contributes to a good tone of communication.

  Napatech was 82 full-time employees, as of December 31st, 2025, including seven women (9%), compared to eight (9%) in 2024. In general, Napatech wants to increase the presence of women throughout the organization. Our efforts are focused on improving work-life balance as one way to attract more female applicants. It is, however, always the candidate who is deemed best suited for a position that will be offered the position. It has been difficult to raise the presence of women in the organization as women are significantly underrepresented in the workforce the group is recruiting within.

  The supreme governing board in Napatech consists of the Board of Directors, which, on December 31, 2025, included four men and two women (33%). In 2025, One female and one male member left the board. Two new female bord members were elected and one new male board member was elected, thereby increasing the representation of women.

  ESRS STANDARD: ESRS S2 WORKERS IN THE VALUE CHAIN

  Napatech is committed to ensuring fair labor practices and protecting human rights throughout our supply chain. Our strategy focuses on promoting ethical labor practices and enhancing health and safety for workers in our value chain. We have implemented a supplier code of conduct that outlines our expectations for fair labor practices and human rights protections. Our human rights due diligence process includes regular supplier audits and assessments to ensure compliance. We assess risks related to workers in our value chain when our sourcing department engages with our supplier in our regular supplier meetings. Additionally, we support initiatives to improve working conditions and provide training for workers in our supply chain. In 2025, our sourcing department discussed the approach to human rights with both Asian, European, and American suppliers on multiple different occasions.

  Napatech complies with The Responsible Business Alliance (RBA), formerly the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICC), Code of Conduct that establishes standards to ensure that working conditions in the electronics industry, or industries in which electronics is a key component, and its supply chains are safe, that workers are treated with respect and dignity, and that business operations are environmentally responsible and conducted ethically. The Napatech RBA (EICC) conformance statement is available upon request through the company website.

‌NOTE 1 CORPORATE INFORMATION

The consolidated financial statements of Napatech A/S and its subsidiary (collectively, the Group) for the year ended were authorized for issue in accordance with the resolution of the management on March 19, 2026.

ESEF data

‌NOTE 2 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

General

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, as adopted by the EU and additional requirements in the Danish Financial Statement Act.

The consolidated financial statements are prepared on a historical cost basis.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of Danish kroner (DKK'000).

Changes in accounting policies

The accounting policies are consistent with those applied to the consolidated financial statements for 2024.

New and amended standards and interpretations that have become operative

All new or amended standards (IFRS) and interpretations (IFRIC) as adopted by the EU and which are effective for the financial year beginning on 1 January 2025 have been adopted. The implementation of these new or amended standards and interpretations had no material impact on the financial statements. For standards implemented prospectively, the comparative figures are not restated.

New financial reporting standards not yet adopted

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not yet in effect or endorsed by the EU and, therefore, not relevant for the preparation of 2025 consolidated financial statements. The Group expects to implement these standards as they take effect. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions besides from IFRS 18, which replaces IAS 1 effective from 1 January 2027.

IFRS 18 will affect the presentation of the income statement. It will mainly affect the classification of 'financial income' and 'financial expenses', which will be divided into three new line items: 'operating financial income and expenses', 'investment income' and 'interest expenses'. The reclassification will result in a difference between IAS 1 operating profit and the IFRS-18 defined operating profit, which under IFRS18 will include operating foreign exchange rate differences in the operating profit.

iXBRL reporting

Napatech A/S has filed the Annual Report for 2025 in the European Single Electronic Format (ESEF), XHTML format, that can be displayed in a standard browser. The primary statements and notes in the consolidated financial statements are tagged using eXtensible Business Reporting Language (iXBRL), which complies with the ESEF taxonomy included in the ESEF Regulation.

The consolidated financial statements

The consolidated financial statements comprise the parent company, Napatech A/S, and its subsidiary. The subsidiary is fully consolidated from the date of acquisition and/or incorporation, being the date on which the parent company obtains control until the date when such control ceases. The financial statements of the subsidiary are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company's financial statements, using consistent accounting policies. The consolidated financial statements are prepared as a consolidation of the parent company's and the subsidiary's financial statements, eliminating all intragroup balances, transactions, unrealized gains and losses, and dividends.

NOTE 2 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

Currency translation

For each group entity, a functional currency is determined, and items recognized in the financial statements of the individual entities are measured using that functional currency. The functional currency is the currency used as the primary currency for the activities of the reporting entity. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are considered transactions denominated in foreign currencies.

On initial recognition, transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates at the transaction date. Foreign exchange differences arising between the exchange rates at the transaction date and the date of payment are recognized in the income statement as financial income or financial expenses.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates at the reporting date. Any exchange difference arising from the translation is recognized in the income statement as financial income or financial expenses. Non-monetary assets and liabilities measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date of the initial transaction.

Translation of group entities

On recognition in the consolidated financial statements of foreign entities with a functional currency different from the parent company's presentation currency (DKK), the income statement and the statement of cash flows are translated at the exchange rates at the transaction date, while the statement of financial position items is translated at the exchange rates at the reporting date. Any foreign exchange differences arising from the translation are recognized as other comprehensive income in a separate reserve. On full or partial disposal of a foreign entity, the share of the currency reserve relating to that particular foreign entity is recognized in the income statement.

Revenue

Sales of goods

The Group manufactures and sells network adapters, including software, to end-users and through third-party channel partners. The Group's sales contracts regarding network adapters do not include installation services or significant customization etc., and each sales transaction only relates to a single performance obligation.

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized in the income statement at the point in time when control of the goods is transferred to the customer, usually on delivery of the goods, and at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for these goods. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received, excluding rebates and VAT.

Sales of services

Extended warranties and technical product support regarding the network adapters are sold separately. The Group also provides specific engineering services according to separate contracts with customers.

The revenue from engineering service contracts is recognized in the income statement based on the stage of completion (over time). Contract liabilities associated with engineering services are recognized as revenue in the income statement based on the stage of completion (over time), which is determined on the basis of the relationship between the Group's resources in relation to the recent total estimate of resource consumption. The degree of completion is assessed regularly, and the projects are closely monitored by management, and further adjustments are made to the stage of completion if deemed necessary. When performing this evaluation, all factors concerning the relevant contract are taken into consideration and assessed appropriately. Contract liabilities associated with extended warranties and technical product support are recognized as revenue in the income statement divided equally over the period stated in the contract, and the costs associated with providing the extended warranties and technical product support are recognized as they are incurred.

The Group applies the practical expedient to recognize incremental costs of obtaining a contract as they are incurred.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold is incurred to generate the period's revenue. Cost of goods sold comprises costs relating to purchases of products that are to be resold. Cost of goods sold also includes movements in inventory write-down for the year. Cost of goods sold does not include staff costs. The Group uses sub-suppliers for the primary production of goods for resale.

Staff costs

Staff costs include salaries, bonuses, pensions and social costs, share-based payments, vacation pay, and other benefits. Staff costs are recognized in the year in which the associated services are rendered by the employees. Staff costs comprise all staff costs to employees in the Group except from the portion transferred to capitalized development costs as specified in the note related to staff costs.

NOTE 2 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

Share-based payments

The Group's employees and management receive consideration in the form of share-based payments. The share-based consideration is an equity-settled program under which employees and management deliver services in return for share options. The share options are measured at fair value at the time of granting. The fair value of share options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

Costs relating to equity-settled share-based payments are recognized on a straight-line-basis in the income statement under staff costs and in equity over the vesting period. The total expense recognized for equity-settled share-based payments at the reporting date reflects the share of the vesting period that has lapsed and management's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest.

Other external costs

Other external costs comprise costs of research and development not qualifying for recognition as intangible assets, and costs of development associated with engineering service contracts. Other external costs also comprise costs of sales, including costs of sales campaigns, advertising, exhibitions, etc., and administration costs, including office-related expenses. Write-downs on trade receivables are also included.

Finance income and cost

Finance income and costs comprise interest income and expenses, unrealized exchange gains and losses on financial assets and liabilities in foreign currencies and realized exchange gains and losses on foreign currency transactions.

For financial instruments measured at amortized cost, interest income, and expenses are recognized using the effective interest rate method.

Income tax for the year

Tax for the year, which comprises the current tax charge for the year and changes in the deferred tax charge, including changes arising from changes in the tax rate, is recognized in the income statement as regards the portion that relates to the profit or loss for the year and in other comprehensive income as regards the portion that relates to entries in other comprehensive income. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the Group operates and generates taxable income.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially recognized in the statement of financial position at cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses.

Intangible assets comprise development projects and patents with finite useful lives.

Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their economic lives and tested for impairment whenever there is an indication that an asset might be impaired. Useful lives are reassessed on an annual basis. Changes in expected useful lives are accounted for as changes in accounting estimates. Amortization and impairment losses are recognized in the income statement.

Development projects

Research costs are recognized in the income statement as incurred. Development costs incurred for individual projects are recognized as an intangible asset when the Group can demonstrate the following:

• The technical feasibility of completing the development project so that it will be available for use or sale;

• The intention to complete the development project and the Group's ability to use or sell it;

• The probability that the development project will generate future economic benefits;

• The availability of adequate technical, financial, and other resources to complete the development project and to use or sell it;

• The ability to measure the costs reliably.

Subsequent to the initial recognition of the development costs as an intangible asset, the development project is recognized at cost less any accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Amortization of the intangible asset begins when the development of the asset has been completed, and the asset is used as planned. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of the assets. The expected useful life of development projects is 3 years.

Patents

Patents are recognized as intangible assets at the time of acquisition and measured at cost less accumulated amortization. Patents are amortized over their useful lives, starting at the time when the patent takes effect. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of the assets. The useful life of patents is estimated at 10 years.

NOTE 2 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

Tangible assets

Tangible assets include plant and equipment and leasehold improvements. Items of tangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, the cost being the acquisition price and costs directly related to the acquisition until such time when the asset is ready for use.

Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of the assets, as follows: Plant and equipment 3 years

Leasehold improvements 5 years

Gains and losses on the disposal of tangible assets are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of the asset and are recognized in the income statement.

Residual values and useful lives are reassessed on an annual basis. Changes in useful lives or residual values are accounted for as changes in accounting estimates.

Leases

The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is or contains a lease. That is if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Group recognizes lease liabilities to make lease payments and right-of-use assets representing the right to use the underlying assets.

The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e., those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option or extension option). The Group also applies the lease of low-value assets recognition exemption to leases of office equipment that are considered to be low value. Lease payments on short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

A right-of-use asset and a lease liability are recognized in the balance sheet when the specifically identifiable asset is made available under the lease agreement during the lease term and when the Group gains the right to virtually all the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and the right to control the use of the identified asset.

The Group applies the practical expedient to recognize payments related to service components in leasing contracts for plant and equipment as part of the right-of-use asset and a lease liability.

Lease liabilities

Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of future lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating the lease unless the Group is very unlikely to exercise the option to terminate.

In assessing the expected lease term for property leases, the Group estimates for strategic reasons that the expected rental period is between 3-5 years.

In calculating the present value of lease payments, the Group uses its alternative borrowing rate at the lease commencement date because the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. The alternative borrowing rate is the cost of raising external financing for a corresponding asset with a financing period corresponding to the term of the lease in the currency in which the lease payments are settled.

After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, or a change in the lease payments (e.g., changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset.

Right-of-use assets

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognized, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date, less any lease incentives received. Right-of-use assets

are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows: Properties 3-5 years

Plant and equipment 3-6 years

NOTE 2 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

Impairment of non-financial assets

In-progress development projects are tested for impairment at least once a year. Other long-term assets with finite useful lives are reviewed for impairment at each reporting date. Where indications of impairment are identified for in-progress development projects or other long-term assets with finite useful lives, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the asset. The recoverable amount is determined for the individual asset or a group of assets constituting an integrated cash-generating unit. The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset or the cash-generating unit's fair value, less costs to sell and its value in use. When the carrying amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired, and the carrying amount is reduced to the recoverable amount. The impairment loss is recognized in the income statement.

The value in use is calculated as the present value of expected future cash flows from the asset or the cash-generating unit of which the asset is a part.

Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost is determined using the first-in/first-out (FIFO) method.

The cost of goods for resale, raw materials, and consumables comprises the purchase price plus delivery costs. The Group uses sub-suppliers for the primary production of goods for resale.

The net realizable value of inventories is determined as the selling price less costs of completion and costs incurred to generate the revenue, taking into account marketability, obsolescence, and developments in the expected selling price.

Receivables

Receivables are measured at amortized cost less write-downs. Write-downs on trade receivables are based on the simplified expected credit loss model. Credit loss allowances on individual trade receivables and other receivables are provided for when objective indications of credit losses occur such as debtor's bankruptcy and uncertainty about the debtor's ability and/or willingness to pay, etc.

Write-downs on receivables are recognized in the income statement under other external costs.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at banks.

Equity

Share premium

Share premium is the value in excess of the nominal value of the shares that are contributed to the company upon formation or a capital increase. The share premium is part of the distributable reserves.

Share-based payment reserve

The value of share options granted is recognized in equity under share-based payment reserve over the vesting period as the employees deliver the relevant services. The reserve reflects the total value of share options granted based on the share of the vesting period that has lapsed and the Group's best estimate of the number of equity instruments that will ultimately vest. The reserve is part of the distributable reserves.

Treasury shares

Own equity instruments that are reacquired (treasury shares) are recognized at cost and deducted from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Group's own equity instruments. Any difference between the carrying amount and the consideration, if reissued, is recognized in the share premium.

Foreign currency translation reserve

The foreign currency translation reserve comprises exchange differences arising upon translation of the financial statements of foreign operations from their functional currency to the parent company's presentation currency (DKK).

Upon full or partial realization of the investment in the foreign operation, foreign exchange adjustments are recognized in the income statement in the same item as the gain/loss from the sale. The reserve is part of the distributable reserves.

Financial liabilities

Amounts owed to banks etc., are recognized at the date of borrowing at the amount of proceeds received net of transaction costs paid. In subsequent periods, the financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Accordingly, the difference between the proceeds and the nominal value is recognized in financial expenses over the term of the loan.

Non-financial liabilities are measured at net realizable value.

NOTE 2 MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

Contract liabilities

A contract liability is recognized if a payment is received or a payment is due (whichever is earlier) from a customer before the Group transfers the related goods or services. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Group performs under the contract.

Income tax and deferred tax

Current tax liabilities and current tax receivable are recognized in the statement of financial position as the estimated tax charge for the period, adjusted for tax on previous years' taxable income, and tax paid on account. Income tax return receivables are evaluated with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation, and provisions are established where appropriate.

Deferred tax is measured, using the "balance sheet liability" method, of all temporary differences at the reporting date between the tax base and the carrying amount of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the year when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax is recognized for all taxable, temporary differences, except for taxable, temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled, and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible, temporary differences, and all unutilized tax loss carry forward to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible, temporary differences, and unutilized tax loss carry forward can be used.

The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilized.

Unrecognized deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the deferred tax asset can be utilized.

Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities relating to items recognized outside profit or loss are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.

Statement of cash flows

The statement of cash flows shows the Group's cash flows for the year, broken down into operating, investing, and financing activities, the period's changes in cash and cash equivalents, and the Group's cash and cash equivalents at the beginning and the end of the period. Cash flows from operating activities are presented using the indirect method and are stated as the profit or loss for the year before tax, adjusted for non-cash operating items, changes in working capital, paid and/or received interests, and paid and/or received income taxes.

Cash flows from investing activities comprise payments related to purchases and/or proceeds of/from non-current assets.

Cash flows from financing activities comprise dividends distributed to shareholders, capital increases and/ or reductions, repayments and/or proceeds of/from interest-bearing debt, and payments regarding lease agreements, including instalments but excluding interest payments.

Segment information

The segment information is provided on geographical markets and business segments.

The segmentation is based on the Group's internal financial reporting and has been prepared in accordance with the Group's accounting policies. The Group monitors the performance of the segments to the level of gross profit. All other items of the income statement, as well as assets and liabilities, are managed on a group basis and, therefore, not allocated to individual segments.

Income/expenses in the segments comprise the items directly attributable to the individual segments as well as the items that may be allocated to the individual segments on a reliable basis.

‌NOTE 3 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES, AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities. Significant accounting judgments, estimates, and assumptions are presented below.

Accounting estimates and uncertainty of estimates

The valuation of certain assets and liabilities requires the management to make estimates and assumptions related to future events. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that, according to the management's assessment, are reasonable but also inherently subject to uncertainty and unpredictability. The assumptions may be incomplete and inaccurate, and unexpected events and/or circumstances may arise.

Furthermore, the Group is subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause the actual results to differ from these estimates, both positively and negatively. The Group's specific risks are discussed in the relevant sections of the management's review and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

The major assumptions concerning future events and other sources of estimation of uncertainties at the reporting date, which involve a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are presented below.

Development projects

There is an ongoing assessment of whether the development costs meet the criteria for capitalization as set out in the summary of accounting policies, note 2, and whether the development projects will generate future economic benefits.

Development projects in progress are annually tested for impairment. Completed development projects are reviewed for impairment indicators. If there is evidence of impairment, an impairment test is carried out for the project concerned. The impairment test is prepared on the basis of factors such as the future use of the project and the present value of expected future income, interest, and risk. The carrying amount of completed development projects was DKK 6.9 million on December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024: DKK 19.8 million).

The accounting judgments, estimates, and assumptions that the management makes for development projects are consistent with previous years.

‌NOTE 4 OPERATING SEGMENTS

The geographical segmentation is based on the location of the customers.

In 2025, revenue from sales to customers located in Denmark amounted to 0% of total revenue (2024: 0%). The Group has material revenue from customers located in the USA. In 2025, sales to customers in the USA accounted for 69% of total revenue (2024: 66%).

NOTE 4 OPERATING SEGMENTS (CONTINUED)

Revenue from Engineering services is considered a separate segment from SmartNIC products due to the difference in economic characteristics and the timing of recognition of revenue. The revenue from engineering service contracts is recognized in the income statement based on the stage of completion (over time) according to IFRS 15, while the main part of the revenue from SmartNIC products is recognized in the income statement at a point in time.

The Group monitors the performance of the segments to the level of gross profit. All other items of the income statement, as well as assets and liabilities, are managed on a group basis and, therefore, not allocated to individual segments.

Transactions with major customers

Customers with revenue amounting to 10% or more of the total revenue of the Group is divided to segments as follows:

All research and development costs are incurred by the parent company. The total amount of research and development costs recognized in the balance sheet on December 31, 2025.is DKK 16,136 thousand (2024: DKK 24,033 thousand).

‌NOTE 7 SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

Employees and members of the management in both the parent company and the US-based subsidiary are eligible for share option schemes. They are granted a certain number of share options in the parent company in return for the services they provide to the Group. Share options under these schemes are granted at fixed exercise prices. The right to share options can only be vested as long as the holder is an employee of the Group. Members of the Board of Directors are eligible for share option schemes under corresponding terms as long as the holder is a member of the Board of Directors of the Group.

The share-based payment expense is measured at fair value on the grant date using the Black-Scholes model. The expense is recognized in the income statement with the counter item in the share-based payment reserve under equity, and it is recognized over (a) the period during which the share option holder has met the vesting conditions or (b) the period in which an exercising event is likely to occur if this period is shorter.

The following shows the weighted average of the remaining contractual period for the outstanding share options

Weighted average of remaining contract period (years) at 31 December 2025 2024

Assumptions for the calculation of the fair value of share options granted in the period

The fair value of share options granted was estimated on the date of grant using the following assumptions:

Granted in 2025 April

2025

The fair value of the share options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Dividend is not included since the group has never distributed any dividends and has no plan to do so. The applied expected time to exercise used in the model is based on the ultimate exercise date for the holder of the share options. The expected volatility reflects the assumption that the historical volatility over the latest two years up till grant date is indicative of future trends. These expectations may not necessarily be the actual outcome.
