Earnings/losses per ordinary share are calculated by dividing the loss for the period by the weighted average number of ordinary shares during the year.

As the Company reported a net loss in 2023, 2022 and 2021, stock options and RSUs have an anti‑dilutive effect rather than a dilutive effect. As such, there is no difference between basic and diluted loss per ordinary share.
