Our business depends on the level of activity in the oil and gas industry. Adverse developments affecting the industry, including a decline in the price of oil or gas, reduced demand for oil and gas products and increased regulation of drilling and production, have in the past had and may in the future have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company's functional currency is the US Dollar. However, a portion of our expenses are incurred in local currencies. Therefore, when the US Dollar weakens (strengthens) in relation to the currencies of the countries in which we operate, our expenses reported in US Dollars will increase (decrease).
Future cash flows are exposed to risks to the extent that foreign currency expenses exceed revenues denominated in the same foreign currency. To help manage this potential risk, the Group periodically enter into derivative instruments to manage our net exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.
The Company are subject to market risk exposure related to changes in interest rates on borrowings and may be subject to similar exposure on future borrowing arrangements. Future cash flows for financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. 
The Company mitigates interest rate exposure by entering into fixed rate loans or interest rate swaps at the parent company level whereas individual subsidiaries generally are funded through loans carrying floating interest rates.
For drilling contracts, credit risk is minimised by undertaking a credit assessment of the counterparty prior to entering into the contracts. Depending on creditworthiness, the Company may seek protection in the form of parent company guarantees, prepayments or other types of collateral.
Further the Company has a concentration of customers. This concentration of customers increases the risks associated with any possible termination or nonperformance of contracts, in addition to our exposure to credit risk. If any of these customers were to terminate or fail to perform their obligations under their contracts and the Company were not able to find other customers for the affected drilling units promptly, the financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
Noble is first and foremost a people business, focused on acting with integrity and respect, and keeping people safe. With operations globally, Noble recognizes the risk of safety and its responsibility with regard to the impact it has on people on many levels, including employees, partners, customers, and the local communities where we operate.
By maintaining a structured approach and actively pursuing procedural discipline, we maintain our focus on the health, safety, and social wellbeing of our personnel, and support our goal to advance the development and retention of our diverse and talented workforce.
In 2022, Noble carried out three studies on board Noble Venturer, Noble Invincible and Noble Integrator, with the purpose of learning how to increase the safety of operations through positive observation of how the crew adds safety to the work process during normal everyday tasks. The focus of the studies was work in red zones and how this is managed and coordinated.
Results from these studies have been shared amongst crews to foster a learning culture and have also generated a positive response from customers, with feedback garnered that this is the right direction for the industry to move in.
Going forward we will continue to strive to create a workplace that keeps people safe and offers meaningful career opportunities.
Noble is committed to conducting business responsibly, addressing a wide range of components constituting ethical behavior such as anti-competitive behavior, antibribery and corruption controls. With operations globally, Noble recognizes corruption and bribery as a potential risk.
Our commitment to honesty and integrity extends to every aspect of our operations. Noble prohibits bribery in the conduct of all its business, all over the world. Bribery can take many forms, including payments, goods or services provided “in-kind,” and lavish entertainment and gifts. We must comply with all applicable laws against bribery and corruption and to uphold our commitment our policies are regularly communicated to all employees.
Going forward we continue to be committed to conducting business responsibly and prohibit bribery in the conduct of all our business, all over the world.</h:ManagementsReview><h:StatementOfCorporateSocialResponsibility contextRef="c405" xml:lang="en">Climate and environment

Topics included an introduction to the Company’s safety culture and company values, responsible procurement practices, including anti-bribery and anti-corruption controls, as well as the standards required to work as a supplier in the oil and gas industry. Through events such as this one, Noble aspires to play a part in developing emerging economies, dispersing knowledge about good business practices, and strengthening local suppliers.
Going forward we continue to be committed to conducting business responsibly, addressing a wide range of components constituting ethical behavior such as, employing responsible supplier practices, anti-bribery, anti-corruption and upholding labor and human rights. </h:StatementOfCorporateSocialResponsibility><c:GrossProfitLoss contextRef="c405" unitRef="u14"

As part of the hedging of recognised and unrecognised transactions, the Company makes use of hedging instruments such as forward exchange contracts on behalf of the group. Hedging of recognised transactions primarily comprises receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies.
The Company hedges forecast currency risks relating to the sale and purchase of goods within the coming year using forward exchange contracts.
The notional amount of forward exchange contracts amounts to USD 191 million (31 December 2021: USD 112 million) with an accumulated fair value gain of USD 3,546 thousand (31 December 2021: USD 3,203 thousand) and fair value loss of USD 3,546 thousand as of 31 December 2022 (31 December 2021: USD 16,241 thousand non-current part, 3,212 thousands current part).

We have audited the Financial Statements of The Drilling Company of 1972 A/S for the financial year 1 January – 31 December 2022, which comprise income statement, balance sheet, statement of changes in equity and notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies ("financial statements").</f:OpinionOnAuditedFinancialStatements><f:DescriptionOfQualificationsOfAuditedFinancialStatements contextRef="c405" xml:lang="en">We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark. Our responsibilities under those standards and requirements are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants' International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) and the additional ethical requirements applicable in Denmark, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.</f:DescriptionOfQualificationsOfAuditedFinancialStatements><f:StatementOnManagementsReviewAuditorsReportOnAuditedFinancialStatements contextRef="c405" xml:lang="da">Management is responsible for Management's Review.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover Management's Review, and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read Management's Review and, in doing so, consider whether Management's Review is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
Moreover, it is our responsibility to consider whether Management's Review provides the information required under the Danish Financial Statements Act.
Based on the work we have performed, in our view, Management's Review is in accordance with the Financial Statements and has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Danish Financial Statements Act. We did not identify any material misstatement in Management's Review.</f:StatementOnManagementsReviewAuditorsReportOnAuditedFinancialStatements><f:StatementOfExecutiveAndSupervisoryBoardsResponsibilityForFinancialStatements contextRef="c405" xml:lang="en">Management is responsible for the preparation of Financial Statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the Danish Financial Statements Act, and for such internal control as Management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, Management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements unless Management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.</f:StatementOfExecutiveAndSupervisoryBoardsResponsibilityForFinancialStatements><f:StatementOfAuditorsResponsibilityForAuditAndAuditPerformed contextRef="c405" xml:lang="en">Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of financial statement users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs and the additional requirements applicable in Denmark, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by Management.
Conclude on the appropriateness of Management's use of the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and contents of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that gives a true and fair view.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.</f:StatementOfAuditorsResponsibilityForAuditAndAuditPerformed><c:DescriptionOfMethodsOfStatingKeyFiguresAndFinancialRatiosIncludedInManagementReview contextRef="c405" xml:lang="en">The financial ratios have been calculated as follows:

Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments designated as and qualifying for recognition as a fair value hedge of a recognised asset or liability are recognised in the income statement together with changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability.


Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments designated as and qualifying for recognition as a hedge of future transactions are recognised as other receivables or other payables and in equity until the realisation of the hedged transactions. If the future transaction results in the recognition of assets or liabilities, amounts that were previously recognised in equity are transferred to the cost of the asset or liability.

Where individual components of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items, which are depreciated separately.

The basis of depreciation is cost less any projected residual value after the end of the useful life. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
The useful life and residual value are reassessed annually. Changes are treated as accounting estimates, and the effect on depreciation is recognised prospectively.

Deferred tax is measured using the balance sheet liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount and the tax value of assets and liabilities based on the planned use of the asset or settlement of the liability. However, deferred tax is not recognised on temporary differences relating to goodwill non-deductible for tax purposes and on office premises and other items where the temporary differences arise at the date of acquisition without affecting either profit/loss or taxable income.

Deferred tax assets, including the tax value of tax loss carryforwards, are recognised at the expected value of their utilisation within the foreseeable future; either as a set-off against tax on future income or as a set-off against deferred tax liabilities in the same legal tax entity. Any deferred net assets are measured at net realisable value.

Deferred tax is measured in accordance with the tax rules and at the tax rates applicable at the balance sheet date when the deferred tax is expected to crystallise as current tax.
