In 2021, Financial income and expenses decreased by EUR 5 million year-on-year, mainly due to higher other financial income and decreased interest expenses, offset by lower fair value gain. Fair value gains of EUR 95 million are from investments in limited life funds (mainly Gilde Healthcare) and other investments recognized at fair value through profit or loss. Net interest expense in 2021 was EUR 19 million lower than in 2020, mainly due to lower interest expenses on borrowings and provisions, and interest expenses on pensions. The increase in other financial income is mainly due to higher interest income on tax.

In 2020, Financial income and expenses decreased by EUR 75 million year-on-year, mainly due to fair value gains of EUR 133 million from investments in limited life funds (mainly Gilde Healthcare) and other investments recognized at fair value through profit or loss. The fair value gain from investments in limited life funds is caused by IPO’s by certain of the investments held by the limited life funds. Net interest expense in 2020 was EUR 11 million lower than in 2019, mainly due to lower interest expenses on borrowings and interest expenses on pensions. Dividend income from financial assets decreased by EUR 49 million versus 2019.
