Profit forecast model for 2023

  • The assumed combined ratio for 2023 has been narrowed from 82.5-85.5 to 83.5-85.5, excluding run-off in H2.
  • The profit forecast for 2023 has been lowered from DKK 1,150-1,410m to DKK 1,050-1,200m after tax, excluding run-off in H2. For modelling purposes, the announced acquisition of Oona Health A/S is still assumed to close as at 31 December 2023. As a result, no effects related to the acquisition have been included.
  • The expected growth in insurance revenue is lowered from 2-3.5% to above 2%.

Acquisition of Oona Health A/S

  • The approval process is progressing according to plan, and the Danish FSA has approved the transaction.
  • We are still awaiting approval of the transaction from the Danish Competition and Consumer Authority, and we continue to expect the acquisition to be completed in the second half of 2023.
