The SPENN Group reported a net loss of DKK 73.7 million in 2022 compared to a loss of DKK 1.8 million in 2021, mainly driven by current year balance adjustments to group investments, and prior year adjustments reflecting non-recurring  transactions undertaken.

As at 31 December 2022, total shareholder equity amounted to DKK 186.4 million, up from DKK 105.2 million in 2021. The increase in equity is mainly due to the transaction between the Company and Blockbonds completed on 30th of June 2021.
