Niras A/S

Ledelsesberetning

In 2023 NIRAS demonstrated robust financial performance and achieved significant results with our strategy, which concluded in 2023. With a strong focus on growth and strategic initiatives, particularly in the areas of sustainability, green transition and digitalisation, we not only achieved strong financial results but also created a sustainable impact on society through our projects with clients and partners. NIRAS revenue was DKK 2.345,8 million in 2023 the growth was primarily organically driven. Top-line growth was largely generated from energy activities. The organic growth was 15,6% in 2023 ex-ceeding the expected 5% growth in last year´s annual report. EBITA in 2023 amounted to DKK 107.125 thousand, reflecting an EBITA margin of 6,2. EBITA mar-gin slightly decreased compared to 2022 due to investments in sustainability, digitalisation and business development. We invested more than DKK 12 million to enhance our sustainability services and main-tain our position as a leading provider of sustainability engineering solutions. In addition, an investment of close to DKK 5 million was made in digital development to ensure our status as an innovative and digital company. Net financial income of DKK 19.3 million was primarily affected by favourable bank interests from the company´s deposits in the Group cashpool. Net profit 2023 was DKK 94,6 million. Uncertainty in connection with recognition and measurement Contract work in progress is measured including estimates of the stage of completion. In the course of a project, positive or negative variances may occur compared with the estimates applied. Goodwill impairment test is based on estimated future cash flows, discount rates and growth rates. Such estimates are subject to uncertainty and changes may have a major impact. No significant uncertainties other than those described above exist in respect of the Annual Report. Quality management systems We operate a quality management system to ensure the use of timely and relevant skills and to enable the delivery of high-quality services. Our quality management system can be certified according to the ISO 9001:2000 standard, and part of the business has been certified. Research and development activities We focus on continuous development and innovation for the purpose of promoting NIRAS’ position within the various areas of expertise. In keeping with this aim, we regularly take on PhD students who work with specific issues and develop-ment projects. Outlook In 2024, we will begin implementing a new strategy period. We expect to continue our growth in both revenue and own production. The organic growth in own production is expected to reach a level of 8.0%compared to 2023 and is spread across all sectors. EBITA margin 2024 is expected at the same level as 2023. We will continue to invest in sustainability, digitalisation, and business development, with an expected increase in investments in 2024. In particular, we will increase our commitment and investments in our green energy transition initiative GREENsition. We will also continue to focus on being an attractive workplace, investing in the development, well-be-ing, and motivation of our employees.
