Basis of preparation

Discontinued operations

Discontinued operations

A discontinued operation is a component of an entity that either has been disposed of, or that is classified as held for sale. It must either: represent a major separate line of business or geographical area of operations; be part of a single coordinated disposal plan; or be a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. A component also qualifies for presentation as a discontinued operation when activities are ultimately ended (abandoned). Non-current assets and disposal groups are not classified as assets held for sale if their carrying amount is to be recovered through continuing use.

In 2021, the Group decided to end its COVID-19 business activities in Q1 2022. The Group assessed that ending the activities of this operating segment would qualify as a discontinued operation. Therefore, the profit or loss related to the COVID-19 business is presented in a separate line item of the profit and loss section of the statement of comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The segment reporting note and notes to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 only represent continuing operations. For further details on the discontinued operations refer to Note 7 – Discontinued operations.

Warrants

Warrants

Warrants are classified as equity to the extent that they confer the right to purchase a fixed number of shares for a fixed exercise price. In the event that the exercise price or the numbers of shares to be issued are not deemed to be fixed, the warrants are classified as a non-current derivative financial liability. Warrants entitle the holder to purchase one common share of the Company at an exercise price of USD 7.72 per share and can be settled for a fixed number of the Company's underlying common shares. Since the exercise price of the warrants is determined in US dollars which is different from the Company’s functional currency, warrants are classified as liabilities. This liability is initially recognized at its fair value on the date the contract is entered into and subsequently accounted for at fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL) at each reporting date. As the warrants are classified as financial liabilities at FVTPL, transaction costs in the amount of EUR 68k were expensed in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022. For more details, refer to Note 13 – Financial instruments at fair value.

Revision of selected assets and liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position and selected income and expenses in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss

2.2Revision of selected assets and liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position and selected income and expenses in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss

In accordance with IAS 8.42, the Group revised the amount presented for certain property, plant and equipment and lease liabilities balances on the consolidated statement of financial position and cost of sales and other operating income amounts in the statements of comprehensive loss as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 These revised assets, liabilities, income and expenses are related to the COVID-19 segment which has been discontinued as of March 31, 2022.

In September 2021, management updated their long term COVID-19 outlook and took the decision to wind down the COVID-19 segment by Q1 2022. This resulted in an accelerated depreciation of COVID-19 segment related property, plant and equipment and right of use assets during Q4 2021.

In Q2 2022, management identified the accelerated depreciation was over-stated with an amount of EUR 1,317k and a terminated lease contract in Q4 2021 with a EUR 273k lease liability balance which was not derecognized from the statement of financial position as of December 31, 2021. The lease liability is in relation to the closure of the Hamburg laboratory of which the right of use asset was completely written off in Q3 2021.

To correct these unadjusted differences, property, plant and equipment has been revised by EUR 1,317k with a corresponding decrease in depreciation expense under cost of sales and lease liabilities have been revised by EUR 273k with a corresponding increase in other operating income.
