Genmab 2024 Annual Report
Management’s Review

Dear Shareholder,
For 25 years, Genmab has pioneered 
antibody-­based medicines to fundamentally 
transform the lives of people with cancer 
and other serious diseases. We take pride 
looking back at the great leaps we have 
made globally and within the foundations 
of Genmab; however, our focus remains 
steadfast on the future. Our progress has 
led us here: over 2,700 team members 
across five countries, eight antibody-based 
medicines having an impact on patients’ lives, 
and two wholly owned assets now in late-
stage development.
Genmab’s Evolution
Founded in 1999, Genmab celebrated 
its 25th anniversary in 2024, and the 
year gave all of us at Genmab much to 
celebrate. Twenty-five years of scientific 
progress have had an impact on the lives of 
patients and have inspired us to continue 
on our path of becoming a fully integrated 
biotech. This year, Genmab successfully 
acquired ProfoundBio. In addition to gaining 
worldwide rights to three clinical candidates 
and novel antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) 
platforms, the acquisition is representative 
of our long-term growth potential. We 
welcomed talented new colleagues to our 
Research & Development (R&D) team, and 
accelerated the clinical development for 
Rina-S, a wholly owned asset now in Phase 3 
clinical development.
Sustainability and social responsibility 
are fundamental to the way we work at 
Genmab. This Annual Report also marks 
the first year for Genmab incorporating our 
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) 
disclosures in compliance with the European 
Union’s (EU) Corporate Sustainability 
Reporting Directive (CSRD). Our first double 
materiality assessment (DMA) and its 
outcome supported the development of our 
first impacts, risks and opportunities that 
guided our future sustainability strategy. 
We remain committed to ensuring our actions 
benefit our stakeholders and society and 
that our Corporate Social Responsibility 
(CSR) practices are integrated as a core 
part of our business. In 2024, 800 Genmab 
employees completed 4,037 service hours 
to make a difference in the lives of patients 
and their families, our communities and 
the environment.
Experienced Leadership
Our future looks promising under our 
expanded leadership. In 2024, we had two 
additions to our Executive Committee: Rayne 
Waller as Chief Technical Operations Officer, 
and Brad Bailey as Chief Commercial Officer. 
Rayne Waller joined Genmab to further solidify 
and strengthen our technical operations

and lead all the manufacturing and supply 
chain capabilities of our proprietary 
programs through preclinical, clinical and 
commercial stages. Brad Bailey, previously 
Genmab’s Senior Vice President and U.S. 
General Manager, expanded his role to lead 
the direction, planning, and execution of 
Genmab’s global commercial strategies as 
we expand beyond our two priority markets 
of the U.S. and Japan. These new additions 
strengthen our commitment to a bold future 
for our diverse and innovative mid- to late-
stage clinical programs.
In 2024, our Board of Directors (Board) 
continued to provide governance, guidance, 
and dedicated leadership. Comprised 
of experts in their fields, the Board has 
supported organizational growth initiatives, 
driven global change, and contributed 
value across Genmab.
On behalf of the Board, I would like to 
thank Genmab’s dedicated team members, 
Chief Executive Officer Jan van de Winkel 
and the entire global leadership team for 
their inspiration and extraordinary leadership 
as well as our shareholders for your 
continued support.
Sincerely,
 
Deirdre P. Connelly

Jan van de Winkel, Ph.D.
President & Chief Executive Officer
Dear Shareholder,
As I reflect on 2024, I am proud to share a 
year of remarkable progress and strategic 
achievement at Genmab. This year has 
reinforced our commitment to transforming 
the lives of people with cancer and other 
serious diseases through groundbreaking 
antibody-based medicines. Our advances 
across research, development, and 
commercialization activities reflect the 
strength of our vision, our team, and 
our unwavering focus on delivering value 
for patients and stakeholders alike.
Strategic Growth and Innovation
This year, we achieved several key milestones 
that drive us closer to our 2030 Vision of 
being a fully integrated biotech innovation 
powerhouse. Central to this was our 
acquisition of ProfoundBio, completed 
in May, which significantly enhanced our 
long-term growth potential and brought 
assets such as Rina-S into our pipeline. 
Rina-S, a next-generation ADC with best-in-
class potential, entered Phase 3 development 
this year.
We also assumed sole responsibility for 
the continued development and potential 
commercialization of acasunlimab, 
underscoring our commitment to building 
a robust pipeline of wholly owned, 
late-stage programs. These advancements 
are supported by a growing portfolio of 
proprietary technologies, including the novel 
ADC technology platforms we acquired with 
ProfoundBio, and our validated DuoBody 
platform, which underpins our success with 
innovative bispecific antibodies.
Transforming Science into Medicine
This year, we carefully evaluated our 
investments with a focus on portfolio 
prioritization, and we evaluated our clinical 
pipeline to ensure we are investing our 
resources in the best and most effective 
way possible. This strategic prioritization 
means we are very focused on maximizing 
the potential of turning science into medicine 
through our Phase 3 programs, EPKINLY, 
Rina-S and acasunlimab. After a thorough 
assessment, we also decided to terminate 
some early-stage clinical programs that did 
not meet our criteria for potential KYSO® 
antibody-based medicines. And we decided 
not to pursue a Phase 3 program for Tivdak in 
second line plus head and neck cancer.
This year we are pleased that our 
commercialized medicines reached significant 
achievements:
•	EPKINLY became the first and only 
subcutaneous (SC) bispecific antibody 
approved to treat both relapsed or refractory

Letter from the CEO
follicular lymphoma (FL) and diffuse large 
B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in the U.S. and 
Europe. Strong launches in Japan and other 
key markets have exceeded expectations.
•	Tivdak, our tissue factor (TF)-directed 
ADC, received full U.S. Food and Drug 
Administration (U.S. FDA) approval based 
on data demonstrating significant overall 
survival benefits for patients with recurrent 
or metastatic cervical cancer.
A Strong Financial Foundation to 
Enable Our Evolution
Our financial performance this year has been 
a testament to the strength of our strategy. 
Recurring revenues grew significantly, driven 
by royalties from our collaborations and 
sales of EPKINLY and Tivdak, both of which 
delivered robust sales in 2024. This growth 
reinforces our financial position and enables 
continued investment based on our strategic 
prioritization efforts, which include our late-
stage clinical programs and commercialization 
capabilities. This focused approach enables 
us to realize our vision and capitalize on 
significant growth opportunities ahead.
Genmab’s 25th anniversary also marked the 
beginning of a new era of opportunity as our 
company leverages the full potential of our 
late-stage clinical programs, the potential of 
the acquisition of ProfoundBio and continues 
to build on our existing cutting-edge antibody 
research and development to fulfill our mid- 
to long-term growth as a fully integrated 
biotech innovation powerhouse.
Acknowledgments and Outlook
These accomplishments and our progress 
would not have been possible without the 
dedication of our exceptional team, the 
collaboration of our partners, and the trust 
of our shareholders. I want to express my 
deepest gratitude to all who have contributed 
to our success this year.
We are excited about the opportunities 
that lie ahead as we continue to evolve into 
a fully integrated biotech. With a strong 
foundation, an exceptional team, and a strong 
pipeline of innovative antibody medicines and 
investigational medicines, Genmab is well-­
positioned to deliver on our vision to have 
an impact on the lives of patients around 
the world.
Thank you for your continued confidence 
and support. Together, we will continue to 
drive forward and reach our inspirational 
2030 vision.
Sincerely yours,
 
Jan van de Winkel, Ph.D.

Genmab 2024 Annual Report
Management’s Review

Revenue
Genmab expects its 2025 revenue to be in 
the range of USD 3.3–3.7 billion, compared to 
USD 3.1 billion in 2024.
Genmab’s projected revenue growth for 2025 
is driven by higher royalties, net product sales 
and collaboration revenue. Royalty growth relates 
mainly to DARZALEX and Kesimpta net sales 
growth. Net product sales and collaboration 
revenue growth is driven by strong performance 
for both EPKINLY and Tivdak. Net product sales 
and collaboration revenue consists of EPKINLY 
net product sales in the U.S. and Japan, and 
Tivdak (50% gross profit share). 
Genmab’s projected revenue for 2025 primarily 
consists of DARZALEX royalties of approximately 
USD 2.2 billion at the midpoint. Such royalties are 
based on estimated DARZALEX 2025 net sales 
of USD 12.6–13.4 billion compared to actual net 
sales in 2024 of USD 11.7 billion. DARZALEX 
royalties are partly offset by Genmab’s share of 
J&J’s royalty payments to Halozyme Therapeutics, 
Inc. (Halozyme) in connection with SC net sales as 
well as royalty reduction in countries and territories 
where there is no Genmab patent coverage.
The remainder of Genmab’s revenue consists of 
royalties from Kesimpta, TEPEZZA, RYBREVANT, 
TECVAYLI, TALVEY and TEPKINLY, net product 
sales and collaboration revenue from EPKINLY and 
Tivdak, reimbursement revenue and milestones.
2025 Outlook
Operating Expenses
Genmab anticipates its 2025 operating 
expenses to be in the range of USD 2.1–2.2 
billion, compared to USD 2.0 billion in 2024. 
The increase in operating expenses is primarily 
related to investments in late-stage programs 
and launch readiness in key markets.
Operating Profit
Genmab expects its 2025 operating profit to be 
in the range of USD 0.9–1.4 billion, compared to 
USD ~1.0 billion.
Outlook: Risks and Assumptions
In addition to factors already mentioned, the 
estimates above are subject to change due to 
numerous reasons, including but not limited to: 
the achievement of certain milestones associated 
with Genmab’s collaboration agreements; the 
timing and variation of development activities 
(including activities carried out by Genmab’s 
collaboration partners) and related income and 
costs; DARZALEX, DARZALEX FASPRO, Kesimpta, 
TEPEZZA, RYBREVANT, TECVAYLI, TALVEY 
and TEPKINLY net sales and royalties paid to 
Genmab; changing rates of inflation; and currency 
exchange rates (the 2025 guidance assumes 
a USD/DKK exchange rate of 7.2). The financial 
guidance assumes that no significant new 
agreements are entered into during 2025 that 
could materially affect the results.
The factors discussed above, as well as other 
factors that are currently unforeseeable, may 
result in further material adverse impacts on 
Genmab’s business and financial performance, 
including unfavorable impacts on the sales 
of Tivdak and EPKINLY/TEPKINLY, and on the 
net sales of DARZALEX, Kesimpta, TEPEZZA, 
RYBREVANT, TECVAYLI, and TALVEY by Genmab’s 
collaboration partners and on Genmab’s 
royalties, collaboration revenue and milestone 
revenue therefrom.
2025 Outlook is presented in USD as management has determined it is appropriate to change 
the functional currency of Genmab A/S and the presentation currency to USD effective 
January 1, 2025. Refer to Note 5.8 for additional details regarding the change in functional 
and presentation currency.

Genmab 2024 Annual Report
Management’s Review

1. Research and Discovery
Target Identification: The first step in 
Genmab’s value chain involves identifying 
disease-related targets, particularly in 
oncology. This includes research into the 
biological mechanisms underlying diseases and 
identifying targets that can be addressed with 
antibody therapies.
Antibody Engineering: Genmab employs its 
proprietary technologies, such as DuoBody, 
HexaBody and its ADC platforms, to engineer 
and develop novel antibodies. These tech-
nologies allow for the creation of bispecific 
antibodies (capable of targeting two different 
antigens), enhanced antibody functionality and 
ADCs (antibodies with potent cytotoxic agents 
coupled to them).
2. Preclinical Development
Preclinical Development: Genmab conducts 
extensive preclinical testing to evaluate the 
efficacy, safety, and potential of these antibodies 
before advancing them to clinical trials.
3. Clinical Development
Clinical Trials: Genmab advances its antibody 
candidates through various phases of clinical 
trials (Phase 1, 2, and 3). This involves testing 
the candidates in human patients to assess 
safety, dosage, and efficacy.
Strategic Partnerships: During clinical devel-
opment, Genmab may decide to partner with 
pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies to 
co-develop and co-fund the trials. These part-
nerships help mitigate risk and share the costs 
of development.
4. Manufacturing
Process Development: Genmab focuses on 
developing scalable and efficient manufacturing 
processes for its antibody products. Genmab 
does not currently own or operate large-scale 
manufacturing facilities but works closely with 
contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) 
and partners to ensure high-quality production.
QC: Ensuring the consistency, safety, and quality 
of our products is a key part of the manufac-
turing process. Genmab implements strict 
quality control measures throughout production.
5. Registration and Launch
Regulatory Approval: Following successful 
clinical trials, Genmab seeks regulatory 
approval from authorities like the European 
Medicines Agency (EMA) (Europe), the U.S. FDA 
(U.S.) and MHLW (Japan), and other regulatory 
bodies. This step is crucial for bringing the 
investigational medicine to market.
6. Commercialization
Marketing and Sales: Once a product 
receives regulatory approval, Genmab, often 
through a variety of arrangements, markets 
and sells the approved medicine. This step 
includes establishing market strategies 
including market access, engaging with payors, 
educating healthcare providers, and launching 
the product in various regions.
Distribution: Genmab collaborates with 
distribution networks, either through partners 
or on its own, to ensure the approved medicine 
reaches healthcare providers and patients 
in the approved jurisdictions.
Pharmacovigilance: After launch, Genmab 
monitors the product’s performance in the 
market, collecting data on its safety and 
effectiveness in broader patient populations.
7. Partnerships and 
Alliances
Licensing: Genmab licenses its proprietary 
technologies (like the DuoBody and HexaBody 
platforms) to other biotech and pharmaceutical 
companies. This generates revenue through 
upfront payments, milestones, and royalties.
Business Development: Genmab’s Business 
Development team plays a crucial role in the 
value chain, particularly in bridging the gap 
between R&D and commercial success by 
identifying opportunities, helping form strategic 
alliances, and assisting in in-licensing and 
out-licensing business.
Co-Development: Genmab often enters 
into co-development agreements where 
the costs, risks, and profits are shared with 
partners. This collaboration is particularly 
important during clinical development and 
commercialization phases.
Strategic Alliances: Beyond traditional 
partnerships, Genmab engages in strategic 
alliances with research institutions and other 
biotech companies to access complementary 
technologies, expand its pipeline, and explore 
new therapeutic areas.
Refer to section SBM-2 in the sustainability 
statements for details of key stakeholders 
including a mapping to Genmab’s value chain.
Genmab’s value chain is a comprehensive and 
integrated process that spans from early-stage 
R&D to the global commercialization of anti-
body-based therapies. Each step is designed to 
maximize innovation, ensure product quality, 
and optimize market reach, all while leveraging 
strategic partnerships to enhance efficiency 
and profitability.
Below is a breakdown of the key components 
as well as the key stakeholders relevant to each 
value chain component:

Bringing Our Own Innovative Medicines to Patients
We are making continuous progress in our 
ambition to become a fully-integrated, 
end-to-end biotech, which includes 
advancing the development of our fully 
owned medicines and delivering them to 
patients around the world.
Building on our legacy of innovation 
and our patient-first approach, we have 
successfully launched two therapies 
through partnerships. This year, we 
expanded the reach of these medicines 
to additional geographies and patient 
populations while also progressing the 
development of wholly-owned, late-stage 
investigational products.
Expanding the Potential of 
Bispecifics in Lymphoma
In June 2024, the U.S. FDA approved a second 
indication for EPKINLY (epcoritamab-bysp), 
specifically for the treatment of adults with 
relapsed or refractory FL after two or more 
lines of systemic therapy. With this approval, 
EPKINLY became the first and only T-cell 
engaging bispecific antibody administered 
subcutaneously approved in the U.S. to treat 
this patient population.
Subsequently in August 2024, epcoritamab, 
under the brand name TEPKINLY, became the 
first subcutaneous bispecific antibody approved 
as a monotherapy in the EU to treat relapsed 
or refractory FL after two or more lines of 
systemic therapy.
Additionally in September 2024, the U.S. FDA 
granted a second breakthrough therapy designa-
tion for EPKINLY in relapsed or refractory FL when 
administered in combination with rituximab and 
lenalidomide.
In Japan, a supplemental J-NDA was submitted 
to the MHLW for EPKINLY for the treatment of 
patients with third line plus relapsed or refractory 
FL grade 1-3A.
Follicular lymphoma is the second most common 
form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL). It is 
considered incurable, and historically, patients 
may relapse or face a shortened duration of 
response with prior standards of care.
Since 2023, EPKINLY has received regulatory 
approvals in more than 50 countries. It was 
the first bispecific approved in the world with 
a dual indication in third line plus relapsed 
or refractory DLBCL and third line plus relapsed 
or refractory FL. In the U.S., it continues to be 
the only bispecific with this dual indication. In 
Japan, it remains the first and only T-cell engaging 
bispecific antibody administered subcutaneously 
approved for the treatment of adults with 
relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma 
(LBCL) or grade 3B FL. EPKINLY/TEPKINLY is 
developed and commercialized in partnership 
with AbbVie.
We are creating 
lasting impact 
as we bring our 
medicines to more 
patients around 
the world.
Creating Community with CeMe™
The CeMe™ campaign in the U.S., created in partnership with  
Pfizer, builds community and a sense of belonging among those 
impacted by cervical cancer.
“After the treatment, I didn’t know what to do next,” said Anna 
Ogo. “That’s about when I found a community of women who had 
experienced cervical cancer like me, and they helped me tremendously. 
With their support, I began to find confidence in sharing my story.”

Bringing Our Own Innovative Medicines to Patients
Driving Progress in Cervical Cancer Care
Advanced cervical cancer remains a disease 
with high medical need. In the U.S., up to 16% 
of cervical cancer cases are diagnosed at the 
metastatic stage, and up to 61% of earlier-stage 
diagnoses progress to metastatic disease. 
Globally, cervical cancer is the fourth most 
common cause of cancer death in women.
In April 2024, the U.S. FDA approved the 
supplemental Biologics License Application 
(sBLA) granting approval for Tivdak (tisotumab 
vedotin-tftv), which we market in the U.S. in 
partnership with Pfizer. This U.S. FDA action 
converted the September 2021 accelerated 
approval of Tivdak to a full approval. Tivdak 
remains the first and only approved ADC for 
the treatment of patients with recurrent or 
metastatic cervical cancer in the U.S.
In Japan, the incidence and mortality rates 
for cervical cancer have been increasing, 
attributable in part to low vaccination rates 
for the human papillomavirus (HPV) (<5%) 
and regular checkups (40%). In April 2024, a 
J-NDA was submitted to the MHLW for Tivdak 
for the treatment of advanced or recurrent 
cervical cancer with disease progression after 
chemotherapy. Currently, patients whose disease 
progresses or recurs following initial treatment 
face limited options. If approved, Tivdak 
could provide renewed hope to the cervical 
cancer community.
Ensuring Rapid and Sustainable Access to Medicines
We are focused in our pursuit to turn innovative 
science into medicines that create value and 
deliver meaningful impact to patients and 
health systems.
Ultimately, we positively impact the lives of 
people with cancer when our science becomes 
medicine, our medicine creates value, and the 
value of our medicine is realized by patients who 
can benefit. Patient access and affordability are 
key components of this.
We aim to ensure that the price of our 
medicines allows patients, regardless of their 
socioeconomic or insurance status, to have timely 
access while considering the transformational 
potential of our science, its benefit to healthcare 
systems and society, and our ability to invest in 
the breakthrough science of the future.
At the same time, together with our partners, 
we work with local country regulatory and 
payer authorities in the U.S., Japan, and 
throughout Europe to facilitate registration and 
reimbursement to help enable patient access 
to our medicines around the world.
Our Approach to Value, Access, 
and Pricing
•	Value: The value of our medicines is 
driven by our innovative science.
•	Access: Patient impact happens when 
our medicines reach the people who 
need them and help them live better.
•	Pricing: The price of our medicines 
reflects the innovation behind our 
science, its impact on patients, and our 
commitment to bringing that science 
to patients.
We recognize that true patient impact happens 
when our medicines reach the patients who need 
them. In the U.S., MyNavCare™ Patient Support 
by Genmab was created to offer support services 
to patients prescribed Genmab medicines to 
help them navigate each step of their unique 
treatment journey.
MyNavCare offers a range of resources and services, from financial assistance to ongoing 
support, to help patients access the Genmab medication they need.
Part of this can include ongoing support from Patient Engagement Liaisons — such as 
Ann Fodrey. During a hurricane in 2024, one of the patients Ann supports was impacted 
by the storm and the roof of his home was heavily damaged. Fodrey provided consistent 
support, checking in to make sure the patient, a retired military veteran, was able to 
safely get to his treatment and also connected him with a veteran’s organization that was 
able to install a temporary roof on his house.
“Every day we do small things like this. It doesn’t have to be pointing them to an 
organization that can provide the support they need. It could be connecting them 
with a peer-to-peer resource, so they have somebody that’s going through a similar 
experience — listening to them,” Fodrey said. “And that’s just as important.”

About Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma
DLBCL is the most common type of B-cell NHL worldwide, accounting for approximately 
25%–30% of all NHL cases.1,2 In the U.S. there are approximately 25,000 new cases of DLBCL 
diagnosed each year.3 DLBCL can arise in lymph nodes as well as in organs outside of the 
lymphatic system, occurs more commonly in the elderly and is slightly more prevalent in men.4,5 
DLBCL is a fast-growing type of NHL, a cancer that develops in the lymphatic system and affects 
B-cell lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell. For many people living with DLBCL, their cancer 
either relapses, which means it may return after treatment, or becomes refractory, meaning 
it does not respond to treatment. Although new therapies have become available, treatment 
management can remain a challenge.6,7

About Follicular Lymphoma
FL is typically an indolent (or slow-growing) 
form of NHL that arises from B-lymphocytes 
and is the second most common form of 
NHL accounting for 20–30% of all cases.1 
About 15,000 people develop FL each year 
in the U.S.2 and it is considered incurable 
with current standard of care therapies.3 
Patients often relapse and, with each relapse 
the remission and time to next treatment is 
shorter.4 Over time, transformation to DLBCL, 
an aggressive form of NHL associated with 
poor survival outcomes, can occur in more 
than 25% of FL patients.5

(tisotumab vedotin-tftv)
First and Only U.S. FDA 
Approved ADC for Recurrent or 
Metastatic Cervical Cancer
•	An ADC directed to TF, a protein highly 
prevalent on solid tumors, including 
cervical cancer, which is associated 
with poor prognosis
•	Full approval granted by the U.S. 
FDA for tisotumab vedotin-tftv, 
marketed as Tivdak, for the 
treatment of patients with recurrent 
or metastatic cervical cancer with 
disease progression on or after 
chemotherapy; Tivdak is the first ADC 
with demonstrated overall survival 
data to be granted full U.S. FDA 
approval in this patient population
•	Regulatory submissions for tisotumab 
vedotin for the treatment of recurrent 
or metastatic cervical cancer are 
currently under review in both Japan 
and Europe
•	Co-developed globally and co-
promoted in the U.S. in collaboration

Tisotumab vedotin is an ADC composed of 
Genmab’s human monoclonal antibody directed 
to TF and Pfizer’s ADC technology that utilizes 
a protease-cleavable linker that covalently 
attaches the microtubule-disrupting agent 
monomethyl auristatin E to the antibody. 
Genmab used technology licensed from 
Medarex to generate the TF antibody forming 
part of tisotumab vedotin. Tisotumab vedotin-
tftv, marketed as Tivdak, is the first and only 
U.S. FDA approved ADC for the treatment of 
adult patients with recurrent or metastatic 
cervical cancer with disease progression on 
or after chemotherapy. Tisotumab vedotin is 
being co-developed by Genmab and Pfizer. 
Under a joint commercialization agreement, 
Genmab is co-promoting Tivdak in the U.S. 
and will lead commercial operational activi-
ties in Japan once approved. Pfizer is leading 
commercial operational activities in the U.S. 
and will lead commercial operational activities 
in China once approved. In the U.S. market there 
will be a 50:50 profit split. Effective January 
1, 2025, Genmab and Pfizer agreed to amend 
the License and Collaboration Agreement and 
the Joint Commercialization Agreement for 
Tivdak, assigning Genmab sole responsibility 
for the development and commercialization of 
Tivdak for second line plus recurrent or meta-
static cervical cancer in Europe and all other 
regions globally, excluding the United States 
and the China region. Genmab will record sales 
for Europe, Japan and rest of world markets 
(excluding the United States and the China 
region), once commercialized, and will provide 
royalties to Pfizer on net sales in the low teens. 
The companies have joint decision-making 
power on the worldwide development and 
commercialization strategy for Tivdak. Please 
refer to Note 5.6 of the financial statements for 
further details regarding the tisotumab vedotin 
collaboration with Pfizer. Please consult the

About Cervical Cancer
Cervical cancer remains a disease with high unmet need despite advances in effective 
vaccination and screening practices to prevent and diagnose pre-/early-stage cancers for 
curative treatment. Recurrent and/or metastatic cervical cancer is a particularly devastating 
and mostly incurable disease; up to 15% of adults with cervical cancer present with 
metastatic disease at diagnosis1,2 and, for adults diagnosed at earlier stages who receive 
treatment, up to 61%3 will experience disease recurrence. It was estimated that in 2024, 
more than 13,820 new cases of invasive cervical cancer were diagnosed in the U.S. and 
4,360 adults would die from the disease.1

Agreement for reasons related to BioNTech’s 
portfolio strategy. Genmab subsequently 
assumed sole responsibility for the continued 
development and potential commercialization 
of acasunlimab and the program will be 
subject to payment of certain milestones 
and a tiered single-digit royalty on net sales 
by Genmab to BioNTech. Please refer to 
Note 5.6 of the financial statements for further 
details regarding Genmab’s collaboration 
with BioNTech. Acasunlimab is designed 
to induce an antitumor immune response 
by simultaneous and complementary 
programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) blockade 
and conditional 4-1BB stimulation using an 
inert DuoBody format. A Phase 3 trial (ABBIL1TY 
NSCLC-06) of acasunlimab in combination

Management’s Review

Antibodies are Y-shaped proteins that play 
a central role in immunity against bacteria 
and viruses (also known as pathogens). 
As we develop immunity, our bodies generate 
antibodies that bind to pathogen structures 
(known as antigens), which are specific to the 
pathogen. Once bound, the antibodies attract 
other parts of the immune system to eliminate 
the pathogen. In modern medicine, we have 
learned how to create and develop specific 
antibodies against antigens associated with 
diseased human cells for use in the treatment 
of diseases such as cancer and autoimmune 
disease. Genmab uses several types of 
technologies to create antibodies to treat 
disease and has developed proprietary antibody 
technologies including the DuoBody, HexaBody, 
DuoHexaBody and HexElect technology 
platforms. With our acquisition of ProfoundBio 
we also gained their novel ADC technology 
platforms. Information about these technologies 
can be found in the following sections and 
at www.genmab.com/antibody-science/
antibody-technology-platforms.
We also use or license several other technologies 
to generate diverse libraries of high-quality, 
functional antibodies. In addition, we use or 
license technologies to increase the potency of 
some of our antibody therapeutics on a product-
by-product basis.

Innovative Technology 
for Bispecific Antibody 
Therapeutics
•	Bispecific antibody technology 
platform
•	Potential in cancer, autoimmune, 
infectious, cardiovascular, central 
nervous system diseases, and 
hemophilia
•	Commercial collaborations with 
AbbVie, J&J and BioNTech among 
others, plus multiple research 
collaborations
•	Multiple regulatory approvals 
for medicines created using the 
DuoBody technology platform
The DuoBody technology platform is Genmab’s 
innovative platform for the discovery and 
development of bispecific antibodies. 
Bispecific antibodies bind to two different 
epitopes (or “docking” sites) either on the 
same or on different targets (also known 
as dual-targeting). Dual-targeting may improve 
binding specificity and enhance therapeutic 
efficacy or bring two different cells together 
(for example, engaging a T cell to kill a tumor 
cell). Bispecific antibodies generated with 
the DuoBody technology platform can be 
used for the development of therapeutics 
for diseases such as cancer, autoimmune, 
infectious, cardiovascular, central nervous 
system diseases, and hemophilia. DuoBody 
molecules combine the benefits of bispecificity 
with the strengths of conventional antibodies, 
which allows DuoBody molecules to be 
administered and dosed the same way as 
other antibody therapeutics. Genmab’s 
DuoBody technology platform generates 
bispecific antibodies via a versatile and broadly 
applicable process that is easily performed at 
high throughput, standard bench, as well as 
at commercial manufacturing scale. Genmab 
uses the DuoBody technology platform to 
create its own bispecific antibody programs 
and the technology is also available for 
licensing. Genmab has numerous alliances for 
the DuoBody technology platform including 
commercial collaborations with AbbVie, J&J, 
Novo Nordisk and BioNTech.
Genmab’s proprietary DuoBody technology 
platform has been applied to a variety of 
bispecific antibody products in development, 
both in our own pipeline and in programs 
being developed by collaboration partners. 
The technology has been validated by the 
continued advancement of these investiga-
tional medicines through clinical development, 
including four approved medicines. Today 
four products created by use of the DuoBody 
technology platform have received regula-
tory approval.
Antibody Technologies
The innovative DuoBody technology 
platform generates bispecific antibodies 
via a fast, versatile and broadly applicable 
process called controlled Fab-arm 
exchange. With only minimal protein 
engineering, the technology allows the

Advancing Our Pipeline
AbbVie
On June 10, 2020, Genmab entered into a 
broad oncology collaboration agreement with 
AbbVie to jointly develop and commercialize 
products including epcoritamab (DuoBody-
CD3xCD20), and subsequently into a discovery 
research collaboration for up to four future 
differentiated antibody therapeutics for 
cancer. The companies will share commercial 
responsibilities for epcoritamab in the U.S. 
and Japan, with AbbVie responsible for further 
global commercialization. Genmab is the 
principal for net sales in the U.S. and Japan 
and receives tiered royalties on remaining 
global sales outside of these territories. For any 
product candidates developed as a result of the 
companies’ discovery research collaboration, 
Genmab and AbbVie will share responsibilities 
for global development and commercialization 
in the U.S. and Japan. Genmab retains the right 
to ­co-­commercialize these products, along with 
AbbVie, outside of the U.S. and Japan.
Under the terms of the agreement, Genmab has 
the potential to receive regulatory and sales 
milestone payments, as well as tiered royalties 
between 22% and 26% on net sales for 
epcoritamab outside the U.S. and Japan. Except 
for these royalty-bearing sales, the parties will 
share in profit from the sale of epcoritamab 
on a 50:50 basis. If all four next-generation 
antibody product candidates developed as a 
result of the discovery research collaboration 
are successful, Genmab is eligible to receive 
up to USD 2.0 billion in option exercise and 
success-based milestones. Genmab and AbbVie 
split 50:50 the development costs related to 
epcoritamab, while Genmab will be responsible 
for 100% of the costs for the discovery research 
programs up to opt-in. Please refer to Note 5.6 
of the financial statements for further details 
regarding the collaboration with AbbVie.
BioNTech
In May 2015, Genmab entered an agreement 
with BioNTech to jointly research, develop 
and commercialize bispecific antibody-based 
investigational medicines using Genmab’s 
DuoBody technology platform. Under the 
terms of the agreement, BioNTech will 
provide proprietary antibodies against key 
immunomodulatory targets, while Genmab 
provides proprietary antibodies and access 
to its DuoBody technology platform. Genmab 
paid an upfront fee of USD 10 million to 
BioNTech. If the companies jointly select any 
antibody-based product candidates for clinical 
development, development costs and product 
ownership will be shared equally going forward. 
If one of the companies does not wish to 
move an antibody product forward, the other 
company is entitled to continue developing it on 
predetermined licensing terms. The agreement 
also includes provisions which will allow the 
parties to opt out of joint development at 
key points. Genmab and BioNTech currently 
have two bispecific antibody products in 
clinical development, GEN1042 (BNT312, 
DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB) and GEN1059 (BNT314, 
DuoBody-EpCAMx4-1BB). In 2024, Genmab 
assumed sole responsibility for the continued 
development and potential commercialization of 
an additional bispecific antibody, acasunlimab 
(GEN1046, DuoBody-PD-L1x4-1BB) after 
BioNTech opted to not participate in further 
development of the program. Please refer to 
Note 5.6 of the financial statements for further 
details regarding Genmab’s collaboration 
with BioNTech.
Our Innovative Technology 
in Action
J&J
In July 2012, and as amended in December 
2013, Genmab entered into a collaboration with 
J&J to create and develop bispecific antibodies 
using our DuoBody technology platform.
Three of the DuoBody-based investigational 
medicines created under this collaboration, 
RYBREVANT (amivantamab), TECVAYLI 
(teclistamab) and TALVEY (talquetamab) 
have received regulatory approval in various 
territories worldwide. Genmab is eligible to 
receive milestone payments and receives 
royalties on net sales of each commercialized 
DuoBody medicine. Please refer to Note 5.6 
of the financial statements for further details 
regarding the DuoBody collaboration with J&J.
Novo Nordisk
In August 2015, Genmab entered an agreement 
to grant Novo Nordisk commercial licenses to 
use the DuoBody technology platform to create 
and develop bispecific antibody candidates for 
two therapeutic programs that would target a 
disease area outside of cancer therapeutics. 
After an initial period of exclusivity for both 
target combinations, Novo Nordisk extended 
exclusivity of the commercial license for one 
target combination in 2018, now in clinical 
development as Mim8. Under the exclusive 
license agreement, Genmab is entitled to 
potential milestones and will be entitled to 
mid-single digit royalties on sales of Mim8, 
should it receive regulatory approval.

ADC Technology Platforms
Two Proprietary Hydrophilic 
Linker-drug Platforms with 
Clinical Validation
•	Combines both novel and validated 
components to create potentially 
best-in-class ADCs
•	Acquired from ProfoundBio, basis 
of four products in the clinic, 
including Rina-S
ADCs are antibodies with potent cytotoxic 
agents coupled to them. By using antibodies 
that recognize specific targets on tumor cells, 
these cytotoxic agents are preferentially 
delivered to the tumor cells. With Genmab’s 
acquisition of ProfoundBio we inherited 
proprietary hydrophilic antibody-drug linker 
technology that blends innovative and proven 
methods to design ADCs leading to potentially 
enhanced therapeutic outcomes. This 
technology leverages two decades of insights 
into ADC pharmacology and optimization. 
These novel, highly hydrophilic and stable 
cleavable linkers are designed to mask the 
hydrophobicity of payloads, leading to ADCs 
with more “antibody-like” pharmacokinetics. 
Initial focus has been on clinically proven 
targets where ADC viability has been 
established. Our goal is to pursue targets 
with clear opportunities for best- and/or first-
in-class ADCs. We also have the potential 
to combine this technology with Genmab’s 
proprietary DuoBody technology to create 
bispecific ADCs. There are currently four 
wholly owned programs in the clinic based 
on this technology, Rina-S, GEN1286 (EGFR, 
cMet), GEN1107 (PTK7) and GEN1160 (CD70).
HexaBody Technology Platform
Creating Differentiated 
Therapeutics
•	Enhanced potency antibody 
technology platform
•	Broadly applicable technology that 
builds on natural antibody biology
•	HexaBody-based investigational 
medicines in clinical development; 
HexaBody-CD38 (GEN3014) and 
HexaBody-OX40 (GEN1055/
BNT315)
The HexaBody technology platform is 
a proprietary Genmab technology that 
is designed to increase the potency of 
antibodies. The HexaBody technology 
platform builds on natural biology and 
strengthens the natural killing ability of 
antibodies while retaining regular structure 
and specificity. The technology allows for the 
creation of potent therapeutics by inducing 
antibody hexamer formation (clusters of 
six antibodies) after binding to their target 
antigen on the cell surface. We have used the 
HexaBody technology platform to generate 
antibodies with enhanced complement-
mediated killing, allowing antibodies with 
limited or absent killing capacity to be 
transformed into potent, cytotoxic antibodies. 
In addition to complement-mediated killing, 
the clustering of membrane receptors by 
the HexaBody technology platform can lead 
to subsequent outside-in signaling leading 
to cell death. The HexaBody technology 
platform creates opportunities to explore 
new antibody-based product candidates and 
repurpose drug candidates unsuccessful 
in previous clinical trials due to insufficient 
potency. The HexaBody technology platform 
is broadly applicable and can be combined 
with Genmab’s DuoBody technology platform 
(DuoHexaBody technology platform) as 
well as other antibody technologies. The 
technology has the potential to enhance 
antibody therapeutics for a broad range of 
applications including cancer and infectious 
diseases. Genmab is using the HexaBody 
technology platform for its own antibody 
programs and the technology is also 
available for licensing. Two HexaBody-based 
investigational medicines are currently 
in clinical development. Genmab entered 
into an exclusive worldwide license and 
option agreement with J&J to develop and 
commercialize GEN3014 (HexaBody-CD38), a 
next-generation CD38 monoclonal antibody-
based investigational medicine. In 2022, 
Genmab and BioNTech expanded their 
global strategic collaboration to include 
­co-­development of monospecific antibody 
candidates leveraging the HexaBody 
technology. Currently in the clinic under 
this collaboration is GEN1055 (BNT315, 
HexaBody-OX40).

Revenue
Genmab’s revenue was DKK 21,526 million in 2024 compared to DKK 16,474 million in 2023. The 
increase of DKK 5,052 million, or 31%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX and Kesimpta 
royalties achieved under our collaborations with J&J and Novartis, respectively. Increased EPKINLY 
net product sales, driven by a strong product launch in 2023 with a full year of net sales in 2024, also 
contributed to increased revenue in 2024.
Genmab’s revenue was DKK 16,474 million in 2023 compared to DKK 14,505 million in 2022. The 
increase of DKK 1,969 million, or 14%, was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX and Kesimpta 
royalties achieved under our collaborations with Janssen and Novartis, respectively, partly offset by 
milestones achieved in 2022 under our collaboration with AbbVie. EPKINLY net product sales, driven 
by a strong product launch, also contributed to increased revenue in 2023.

DARZALEX
J&J’s net sales of DARZALEX were 
USD 11,670 million in 2024 compared to 
USD 9,744 million in 2023 and USD 7,977 million 
in 2022. The increase from 2023 to 2024 of 
USD 1,926 million, or 20%, was driven by share 
gains in all regions. The increase from 2022 to 
2023 of USD 1,767 million, or 22%, was also 
driven by share gains in all regions.
Royalty revenue on net sales of DARZALEX 
was DKK 13,922 million in 2024 compared 
to DKK 11,265 million in 2023 and 
DKK 9,966 million in 2022, an increase of 
DKK 2,657 million from 2023 to 2024, and 
DKK 1,299 million from 2022 to 2023.
The percentage increase in royalties of 24% from 
2023 to 2024 is higher than the percentage 
increase in the underlying net sales of 20% 
primarily due to a higher effective royalty rate 
for 2024 and other positive foreign exchange 
rate impacts, partially offset by the increase 
in Genmab’s Halozyme royalty reductions in 
connection with the increase in SC product net 
sales and an increase in royalty reductions on 
net sales in countries and territories where there 
is no Genmab patent coverage as well as lower 
average exchange rate between the USD and 
DKK in 2024. Under our license agreement with 
Janssen for DARZALEX, for purposes of calcu-
lating royalties due to Genmab, DARZALEX net 
sales for non-U.S. dollar denominated currencies 
are translated to U.S. dollars at a specified annual 
Currency Hedge Rate. This contractual arrange-
ment is the driver for the other foreign exchange 
impacts discussed above.
The percentage increase in royalties of 13% 
from 2022 to 2023 is lower than the percentage 
increase in the underlying net sales of 22% 
primarily due to a lower average exchange rate 
between the USD and DKK in 2023, other foreign 
exchange impacts, the increase in Genmab’s 
Halozyme royalty reductions in connection 
with the increase in SC product net sales and 
an increase in royalty reductions on net sales 
in countries and territories where there is no 
Genmab patent coverage. Under our license 
agreement with Janssen for DARZALEX, for 
purposes of calculating royalties due to Genmab, 
net sales for non-U.S. denominated currencies 
are translated to U.S. dollars at a specific annual 
Currency Hedge Rate. This contractual agreement 
is the driver for the other foreign exchange rate 
impacts discussed above, which were signifi-
cantly more favorable in 2022 compared to 2023.
Kesimpta
Novartis’ net sales of Kesimpta were USD 3,224 
million in 2024 compared to USD 2,171 million 
in 2023 and USD 1,092 million in 2022. The

increase of USD 1,053 million from 2023 to 
2024, or 49%, was primarily driven by increased 
demand and strong access. The increase of 
USD 1,079 million from 2022 to 2023, or 99%, 
was primarily driven by increased demand, 
strong access, and a one-time positive revenue 
adjustment in Europe.
Royalty revenue on net sales of Kesimpta 
was DKK 2,222 million in 2024 compared 
to DKK 1,494 million in 2023, an increase of 
DKK 728 million, or 49%. Royalty revenue on 
net sales of Kesimpta was DKK 1,494 million in 
2023 compared to DKK 779 million in 2022, an 
increase of DKK 715 million, or 92%.
TEPEZZA
Amgen’s net sales of TEPEZZA were USD 1,851 
million in 2024 compared to USD 1,771 million 
in 2023 and USD 1,966 million in 2022. Royalty 
revenue on net sales of TEPEZZA was DKK 737 
million in 2024 compared to DKK 704 million in 
2023 and DKK 796 million in 2022, an increase 
of DKK 33 million, or 5% from 2023 to 2024 and 
a decrease of DKK 92 million, or 12% from 2022 
to 2023.
Other Royalties
Other royalties consist of royalties from net sales 
of RYBREVANT, TECVAYLI, TALVEY and TEPKINLY.
J&J was granted U.S. FDA approval for RYBREVANT 
during the second quarter of 2021, and Genmab 
subsequently started recognizing royalties on net 
sales of RYBREVANT. Royalties were not material 
for 2024, 2023 or 2022.
J&J was granted approval for TECVAYLI for the 
treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple 
myeloma during the third quarter of 2022 in 
Europe and in the fourth quarter of 2022 in the 
U.S. Royalties were not material for 2024, 2023 
or 2022.
During the third quarter of 2023, J&J was granted 
approval in the U.S. and in Europe for TALVEY for 
the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple 
myeloma. Royalties were not material for 2024 
or 2023.
The EC granted conditional marketing autho-
rization for TEPKINLY as a monotherapy for 
the treatment of adult patients with relapsed 
or refractory DLBCL after two or more lines of 
systemic therapy during the third quarter of 2023. 
Royalties from AbbVie, related to European net 
sales, were not material for 2024 or 2023.
Royalty revenue fluctuations from period 
to period are driven by the level of product 
net sales, foreign currency exchange rate 
movements and more specifically to DARZALEX, 
the contractual arrangement related to annual 
Currency Hedge Rate, Genmab’s share of J&J’s 
royalty payments to Halozyme in connection with 
SC product net sales and royalty deductions on 
net sales in countries and territories where there 
is no patent protection.
Reimbursement Revenue
Reimbursement revenue, mainly comprised 
of the reimbursement of certain research and 
development costs related to the development 
work under Genmab’s collaboration agreements, 
amounted to DKK 996 million in 2024 compared 
to DKK 864 million in 2023 and DKK 818 million 
in 2022. The increase of DKK 132 million, or 15%, 
from 2023 to 2024 was primarily driven by higher 
activities under our collaboration agreements 
with BioNTech for DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB and 
acasunlimab, prior to Genmab assuming full 
ownership, as well as by higher activities under 
our collaboration agreement with Pfizer for 
Tivdak. The increase of DKK 46 million, or 6%, 
from 2022 to 2023 was primarily driven by higher 
activities under our collaboration agreements 
with BioNTech for DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB and 
acasunlimab.
Milestone Revenue
Milestone revenue was DKK 1,000 million in 
2024 compared to DKK 1,177 million in 2023 
and DKK 1,767 million in 2022, a decrease of 
DKK 177 million, or 15%, from 2023 to 2024, 
and a decrease of DKK 590 million, or 33%, from 
2022 to 2023, primarily driven by the following:
2024 milestones:
•	Novartis milestone of DKK 582 million driven 
by worldwide net sales for Kesimpta, first 
exceeding DKK 17.4 billion in 2024, and
•	AbbVie milestone of DKK 343 million 
(USD 50 million) due to the acceptance for 
filing of a Biologics License Application (BLA) 
by the U.S. FDA in the second indication of 
epcoritamab in the U.S.
2023 milestones:
•	AbbVie milestone of DKK 348 million 
(USD 50 million) driven by the first commercial 
sale of EPKINLY in the U.S.,
•	AbbVie milestone of DKK 205 million 
(USD 30 million) due to the acceptance of the 
marketing authorization application (MAA) 
filing by the EMA of the type II variation for 
marketing authorization of TEPKINLY,
•	AbbVie milestone of DKK 176 million 
(USD 25 million) due to the first commercial 
sale of TEPKINLY in Europe, and
•	J&J milestone of DKK 169 million 
(USD 25 million) related to the BLA approval 
in the U.S. for talquetamab.
2022 milestones:
•	AbbVie milestone of DKK 577 million 
(USD 80 million) driven by the acceptance of 
the BLA by the U.S. FDA for epcoritamab,
•	AbbVie milestone of DKK 444 million 
(USD 60 million) triggered by the validation of 
the MAA by the EMA in the EU for epcoritamab,
•	J&J milestones of DKK 189 million 
(USD 25 million) and DKK 112 million 
(USD 15 million) for the approval of TECVAYLI 
for the treatment of relapsed or refractory 
multiple myeloma in the U.S. and Europe, 
respectively, and
•	AbbVie milestone of DKK 153 million 
(USD 20 million) driven by the initiation, or 
first patient dosed, of a pivotal trial (Phase 3) 
in the second indication for epcoritamab.
Milestone revenue may fluctuate significantly 
from period to period due to both the timing of 
achievements and the varying amount of each 
individual milestone under our license and 
­collaboration agreements.
Collaboration Revenue
Collaboration revenue, which reflects 50% of gross 
profit from net sales of Tivdak in the U.S. by Pfizer, 
was DKK 433 million in 2024 compared to DKK 307 
million in 2023 and DKK 332 million in 2022. The 
increase of DKK 126 million, or 41%, from 2023 
to 2024 was primarily driven by increased sales 
of Tivdak. The decrease of DKK 25 million from 
2022 to 2023 was primarily driven by a one-off 
payment in 2022 from Pfizer of approximately 
DKK 112 million (USD 15 million) which reflects

EPKINLY was approved in the U.S. in May 2023 
and in Japan in September 2023.
Net sales of TEPKINLY in territories where 
Genmab receives royalty revenue were 
USD 28 million in 2024, with immaterial net 
sales in 2023 due to regulatory approvals in 
such territories not occurring until late 2023.
As EPKINLY is Genmab’s first commercialized 
product for which Genmab is recording net 
product sales, there were no net product sales 
recognized during 2022.

the increased and accelerated advancement 
of epcoritamab under our collaboration with 
AbbVie, the addition of ProfoundBio related 
research and development expenses, primarily 
Rina-S, advancement of acasunlimab and 
DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB under our collaboration 
with BioNTech, further progression of pipeline 
products, and the increase in team members 
to support the continued expansion of our 
product portfolio. The increase from 2022 to 
2023 of DKK 2,068 million, or 37% was driven 
by the increased and accelerated advancement 
of epcoritamab under our collaboration with 
AbbVie, advancement of acasunlimab and 
DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB under our collaboration 
with BioNTech, further progression of pipeline 
products, and the increase in team members 
to support the continued expansion of our 
product portfolio.
Research and development costs accounted 
for 72% of total research and development 
expenses and selling, general and administration 
expenses in 2024 compared to 70% in 2023 
and 68% in 2022.

Selling, General and 
Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative 
expenses were DKK 3,790 million in 2024 
compared to DKK 3,297 million in 2023 and 
DKK 2,676 million in 2022. The increase from 
2023 to 2024 of DKK 493 million, or 15%, was 
driven by the continued expansion of Genmab’s 
commercialization capabilities through the 
increase in team members to support the 
continued launch of EPKINLY in the U.S. and 
Japan in 2023, and the investment in Genmab’s 
broader organizational capabilities. Selling, 
general and administration expense growth has 
been moderating during 2024 reflecting a focus 
on driving efficiency. We continue to increase 
team members and commercial support in a 
strategic manner. The increase from 2022 to 
2023 of DKK 621 million, or 23%, was driven 
by the continued expansion of Genmab’s 
commercialization capabilities through the 
increase in team members to support the 
launch of EPKINLY in the U.S. and Japan in 
2023, and the investment in Genmab’s broader 
organizational capabilities.
DKK 1,813 million, or 48% of selling, general 
and administrative expenses in 2024, was 
related to compensation of Genmab team 
members associated with selling, general 
and administrative activities, as compared 
to DKK 1,541 million, or 47% in 2023 and 
DKK 1,065 million, or 40% in 2022.
Refer to Note 2.3 and 3.2 for further details 
about staff costs and property and equipment.
Selling, general and administrative expenses 
accounted for 28% of total research and 
development expenses and selling, general 
and administration expenses in 2024 compared 
to 30% in 2023 and 32% in 2022.
Acquisition and Integration 
Related Charges
Acquisition and integration related charges 
for the acquisition of ProfoundBio were 
DKK 300 million in 2024 compared to no 
­acquisition and integration related charges for 
2023 or 2022 as there were no acquisitions 
during these years.
Refer to Note 5.5 for further details about the 
acquisition of ProfoundBio.
Operating Profit
Operating profit was DKK 6,703 million in 2024 
compared to DKK 5,321 million in 2023, an 
increase of DKK 1,382 million, or 26%. Operating 
profit was DKK 5,321 million in 2023 compared

Interest Income
Interest income was DKK 995 million in 2024 compared to DKK 982 million in 2023 and DKK 324 
million in 2022. The increase of DKK 13 million, or 1% from 2023 to 2024, was primarily driven by 
the higher cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities in the first half of 2024 compared 
to 2023, almost entirely offset by lower cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities in the 
second half of 2024 compared to 2023 as a result of liquidating marketable securities and using cash 
to purchase ProfoundBio. The increase of 658 million, or 203% from 2022 to 2023 was primarily 
driven by higher effective interest rates in the U.S., Europe, and Denmark.

Gain on marketable securities, net was DKK 217 
million in 2024 compared to gain on marketable 
securities, net of DKK 319 million in 2023 and 
loss on marketable securities, net of DKK 361 
million in 2022. The decrease in gain, net of 
DKK 102 million, or 32% from 2023 to 2024 was 
primarily driven by the decrease in marketable 
securities in the first half of 2024 to fund the 
acquisition of ProfoundBio and share repurchase 
as well as changing interest rate outlooks for the 
U.S., primarily in the fourth quarter of 2024. The 
increase in gain, net of DKK 680 million, or 188% 
from 2022 to 2023, was primarily driven by 
interest rate outlooks for the U.S. and Europe.
Other Investments
Gains on other investments, net were 
DKK 30 million in 2024, losses on other 
­investments, net were DKK 26 million in 2023 
and DKK 297 million in 2022. The net gains and 
losses in 2024 and 2023 were primarily driven 
by changes in fair value of Genmab’s investments 
in certain strategic investment funds. The 
losses in 2022 were primarily driven by the 
change in fair value of Genmab’s investment in 
common shares of CureVac.
Refer to Notes 4.2 and 4.5 for further details 
regarding foreign currency risk and net financial 
items, respectively.
Corporate Tax
Corporate tax expense was DKK 1,320 million in 
2024 compared to DKK 1,285 million in 2023 and 
DKK 1,493 million in 2022. Genmab’s estimated 
annual effective tax rate was 14.4% in 2024 
compared to 22.8% in 2023 and 21.5% in 2022. 
The decrease from 2023 to 2024 in Genmab’s 
effective tax rate was primarily due to the inte-
gration of ProfoundBio which allowed for the 
deduction of previously unrecognized deferred 
tax assets in 2024. The increase from 2022 to 
2023 in Genmab’s effective tax rate was mainly 
driven by the increase of unrecognized deferred 
tax assets.
We anticipate that our effective tax rate should 
be closer to the Danish statutory rate of 22% 
going forward.
Refer to Note 2.4 for additional information 
regarding the corporate tax, deferred tax assets 
and deferred tax liabilities including manage-
ment’s significant judgements and estimates.
Net Profit
Net profit for 2024 was DKK 7,844 million 
compared to DKK 4,352 million in 2023 and 
DKK 5,452 million in 2022. The changes in net 
profit for the periods were driven by the items 
described above.

Genmab’s total cash and cash equivalents and 
marketable securities compared to 90% as of 
December 31, 2023.
Marketable securities are invested in highly 
secure and liquid investments with short effective 
maturities. As of December 31, 2024, 71% of 
Genmab’s marketable securities were long-term 
A rated or higher, or short-term rated A-1/P-1 by 
S&P, Moody’s or Fitch compared to 72% as of 
December 31, 2023.
As of December 31, 2024, DKK 9,858 million, 
as compared to DKK 14,867 million as of 
December 31, 2023, was held as cash and 
cash equivalents, and as of December 31, 
2024, DKK 11,243 million, as compared to 
DKK 13,268 million as of December 31, 2023, 
was held as liquid investments in short-term 
government and other debt instruments.
Cash and cash equivalents included short-
term marketable securities of DKK 82 million 
at the end of December 2024, compared to 
DKK 1,353 million at the end of December 2023. 
In accordance with Genmab’s accounting policy, 
securities purchased with a maturity of less than 
90 days at the date of acquisition are classified 
as cash and cash equivalents.
Genmab requires cash to meet our operating 
expenses and capital expenditures. We have 
funded our cash requirements since inception, 
including through December 31, 2024, primarily 
with royalty and milestone payments from our 
partners, upfront payments, and equity financing. 
Genmab expects to continue to fund a significant 
portion of our development costs for proprietary 
product candidates as well as commercialization 
activities with cash received from royalties and 
milestone payments from partners, and net sales 
of Genmab products.
During the fourth quarter of 2024, Genmab 
entered into an unsecured three-year revolving 
credit facility (“Credit Facility”) of up to 
USD 300 million with a syndicate of lenders. 
Genmab intends to use the Credit Facility to 
finance working capital needs, and for general 
corporate purposes, of Genmab A/S and 
its subsidiaries. The Credit Facility includes 
options to increase the size of the facility up to 
USD 500 million as well as the ability to extend

Management’s Review

for an additional two years. The Credit Facility 
contains certain customary financial covenants. 
As of December 31, 2024, there were no 
outstanding amounts due on, nor any usage of, 
the Credit Facility and Genmab was in compliance 
with all financial covenants.
Genmab’s expenditures on current and future 
preclinical and clinical development programs 
are subject to numerous uncertainties in timing 
and cost to completion. In order to advance our 
product candidates toward commercialization, 
the product candidates are tested in numerous 
preclinical safety, toxicology and efficacy studies. 
Genmab then conducts clinical trials for those 
product candidates that take several years or 
more to complete. The length of time varies 
substantially based upon the type, complexity, 
novelty and intended use of a product candidate. 
The cost of clinical trials may vary significantly 
over the life of a project as a result of a variety 
of factors, including: the number of patients 
required in the clinical trials; the length of 
time required to enroll trial participants; the 
number and location of sites included in the 
trials; the costs of producing supplies of the 
product candidates needed for clinical trials and 
regulatory submissions; the safety and efficacy 
profile of the product candidate; the use of CROs 
to assist with the management of the trials; and 
the costs and timing of, and the ability to secure, 
regulatory approvals.
Genmab’s expenses also fluctuate from period 
to period based on the degree of activities with 
collaborative partners, timing of manufacturing 
campaigns, numbers of patients enrolled in clinical 
trials and the outcome of each clinical trial event. 
As a result, Genmab is unable to determine with 
any degree of certainty the anticipated completion 
dates, duration and completion costs of research 
and development projects, or when and to what 
extent Genmab will receive cash inflows from 
the commercialization and sale of any product 
candidates. Genmab also cannot predict the actual 
amount or timing of future royalties and milestone 
payments, and these may differ from estimates.
Genmab expects to increase operating 
expenditures and make additional capital 
outlays over the next several years as Genmab 
supports preclinical development, manufacturing, 
clinical trial activities, product collaborations, 
commercialization activities and additional hiring 
of staff. As spending increases on research, 
development, business development and /or 
activities related to mergers and acquisitions, 
and commercialization activities related to 
product collaborations, Genmab may be required 
to make certain capital outlays against which 
Genmab expects to receive reimbursement to 
the extent the outlay exceeds Genmab’s share 
under the applicable collaboration agreement. 
Genmab expects that the time-lag between the 
expenditure by Genmab, and the reimbursement 
by a partner of its relevant share, may increase 
Genmab’s working capital needs. To the extent 
Genmab’s capital resources are insufficient to 
meet future capital requirements, Genmab will 
need to finance operating requirements and 
other cash needs through the use of the Credit 
Facility, public or private equity offerings, debt 
financings, or additional corporate collaboration 
and licensing arrangements.
Refer to Notes 4.1, 4.2 and 4.4 for additional 
information regarding our external source

Net cash provided by operating activities is 
primarily related to our operating profit, changes 
in operating assets and liabilities, reversal of 
net financial items, and adjustments related 
to non-cash transactions. Cash provided by 
operating activities increased in 2024 compared 
to 2023 primarily driven by an increase in net 
profit before tax of DKK 3.5 billion, an increase in 
non-cash transactions of DKK 368 million, and 
a decrease in taxes paid of DKK 724 million in 
2024 compared to 2023, partly offset by signif-
icant AbbVie milestones achieved during the 
fourth quarter of 2022 with related cash received 
during 2023 and an increase in DARZALEX 
royalty receivables in the fourth quarter of 2024 
compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. Cash 
provided by operating activities increased in 
2023 compared to 2022 primarily driven by 
significant AbbVie milestones achieved during the 
fourth quarter of 2022 with related cash received 
during 2023, cash received for DARZALEX 
royalties in 2023, and higher corporate tax 
payments made in 2023 compared to 2022.
Net cash (used in) investing activities primarily 
reflects cash used in making acquisitions, 
differences between the proceeds received 
from the sale and maturity of our investments 
and amounts invested, and the cash paid for 
investments in tangible and intangible assets. 
The increase from 2023 to 2024 in net cash 
(used in) investing activities is primarily driven by 
the acquisition of ProfoundBio, partly offset by 
the sales and maturities of marketable securities 
exceeding purchases in 2024, compared to 
purchases exceeding sales and maturities in 
2023. The decrease from 2022 to 2023 in net 
cash (used in) investing activities is primarily 
driven by purchases of marketable securities 
exceeding sales and maturities to a greater extent 
during 2022 compared to 2023.
Net cash (used in) financing activities is primarily 
related to the purchase of treasury shares, exercise 
of warrants, lease payments, and payment of 
withholding taxes on behalf of employees on net 
settled Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). The increase 
from 2023 to 2024 in net cash (used in) financing 
activities is primarily driven by cash payments 
for the purchase of treasury shares of DKK 3,879 
million in 2024 compared to DKK 564 million in 
2023. The decrease from 2022 to 2023 in net cash 
(used in) financing activities is primarily driven by 
cash payments for the purchase of treasury shares 
of DKK 564 million in 2023 compared to DKK 908 
million in 2022.

Exchange rate adjustments represent foreign 
currency gains or losses on Genmab’s cash and 
cash equivalents, primarily driven by our cash 
and cash equivalents holdings denominated 
in USD. The USD/DKK foreign exchange rate 
increased 6% in 2024, decreased 3% in 2023 
and increased 6% in 2022.
Balance Sheet
As of December 31, 2024, total assets 
were DKK 45,811 million, compared to 
DKK 35,289 million as of December 31, 2023. As of 
December 31, 2024, assets are mainly comprised 
of intangible assets of DKK 12,343 million, 
primarily made up of intangible assets acquired in 
the ProfoundBio acquisition, marketable securities 
of DKK 11,243 million, current receivables of 
DKK 6,590 million, cash and cash equivalents 
of DKK 9,858 million and DKK 2,535 million of 
goodwill related to the acquisition of ProfoundBio. 
The current receivables consist primarily of 
amounts related to royalties from our collaboration 
agreements. The credit risk related to our 
receivables is not material based on no historical 
credit losses as well as the high-quality nature 
of Genmab’s collaboration partners and limited 
number of distributors with high credit standing.
Refer to Note 3.6 for additional information 
regarding receivables and Note 5.5 for 
additional details related to the acquisition of 
ProfoundBio.
As of December 31, 2024, total liabilities were 
DKK 9,114 million compared to DKK 3,679 
million as of December 31, 2023. The increase 
in total liabilities of DKK 5,435 million, or 148%, 
was primarily driven by the DKK 2,359 million 
deferred tax liability related to the acquisition 
and integration activities for ProfoundBio, an 
increase of DKK 1,656 million in corporate taxes 
payable due to Genmab’s net profit before tax, an 
increase of DKK 1,170 million in accruals related 
to the expansion of our product pipeline, and an 
increase in lease liabilities of DKK 259 million 
driven by the commencement of a lease in the 
U.S. with respect to office and laboratory space.
Shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 
2024 was DKK 36,697 million compared to 
DKK 31,610 million as of December 31, 2023. 
The increase of DKK 5,087 million, or 16%, 
was driven primarily by Genmab’s net profit 
for the period and share-based compensation 
expenses, partly offset by the purchase of 
treasury shares. Genmab’s equity ratio was 80% 
as of December 31, 2024 compared to 90% as of 
December 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily 
attributable to assets acquired in the acquisition 
of ProfoundBio, net of cash paid, in addition to 
the share buy-back completed in June 2024 that 
offset Genmab’s net profit for the period.
Financial Review — Group
Legal Matters — J&J Binding 
Arbitrations
In September 2020, Genmab commenced 
­arbitration against J&J with respect to two 
different provisions of our license agreement 
for daratumumab, both relating to royalties 
payable to Genmab on net sales of daratumumab 
(marketed as DARZALEX for IV administration 
and as DARZALEX FASPRO in the U.S. and as 
DARZALEX SC in Europe for SC administration). In 
April 2022, the arbitral tribunal issued an award 
in that arbitration denying both of Genmab’s 
claims. Genmab did not seek review of the 
award. On June 9, 2022, Genmab commenced a 
second arbitration against J&J under the license 
agreement, in which Genmab sought additional 
compensation from J&J with respect to SC 
­daratumumab based on Genmab’s position that 
the award in favor of J&J in the first arbitration 
was premised on that tribunal’s determination 
that IV daratumumab and SC daratumumab were 
separate “Licensed Products” as that term is 
defined in the license agreement. Genmab’s claim 
in that second arbitration was denied by the 
tribunal on April 21, 2023 on the ground that it 
should have been brought in the first arbitration, 
and the dismissal was affirmed by an appellate 
arbitrator on January 23, 2024.
In June 2024, Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. 
filed a lawsuit in the Tokyo District Court, Japan 
against AbbVie’s and Genmab’s subsidiaries 
in Japan asserting that their activities with 
EPKINLY (epcoritamab) in Japan infringe two 
Japanese patents held by Chugai, JP6278598 
and JP6773929. Chugai is claiming damages and 
injunctive relief.
Genmab and AbbVie believe that the two 
Japanese patents are invalid and not infringed 
and intend to vigorously defend against the 
lawsuit, and thus no provision has been recorded 
related to this matter.
Refer to Note 5.7 for further details about 
contingencies.

Revenue
Genmab A/S’s revenue was DKK 22,167 million 
in 2024 compared to DKK 17,126 million in 
2023. The increase of DKK 5,041 million, or 29%, 
was primarily driven by higher DARZALEX and 
Kesimpta royalties achieved under our collab-
orations with J&J and Novartis, respectively. 
Increased EPKINLY intercompany net product 
sales, driven by a strong product launch in 2023 
with a full year of net sales in 2024, also contrib-
uted to increased revenue in 2024.
Financial Income and 
Expense
Genmab A/S’ financial income was DKK 17,404 
million in 2024 compared to DKK 2,199 million in 
2023. The increase of DKK 15,205 was primarily 
driven by the DKK 13.0 billion of dividend income 
Genmab A/S received related to the sale of 
ProfoundBio US intangible assets to Genmab A/S.
Genmab A/S’ financial expense was DKK 12,239 
million in 2024 compared to DKK 1,871 million in 
2023. The increase of DKK 10,368 was primarily 
driven by the DKK 10.4 billion impairment related 
to Genmab A/S’ investment in subsidiaries.
Refer to Note 14 in the parent company financial 
statements for further details related to the 
transfer of ProfoundBio US intangible assets to 
Genmab A/S.

Risk Management
5. Ethics by Design
Controls to prevent harm and risks to 
individuals should be built into the design of 
data architecture and data processing
6. Responsible Data 
Sharing
Data sharing should be based on processes that 
actively and consistently consider, prioritize, 
and protect individual rights
7. Responsibility and 
Accountability
Data Ethics Principles should be operationalized 
through effective governance, clear standards, 
training, monitoring activities, and disciplinary 
sanctions
Genmab has core facilities in five countries 
that perform research and development 
activities with clinical trials conducted around 
the globe. We also have commercial and 
sales organizations in the U.S. and Japan with 
manufacturing support activities in Europe. 
Through our activities, we are exposed to a 
variety of risks, some of which are inherent 
in our business and/or beyond our control 
including sustainability-­related risks. These 
risks may have a significant impact on 
our business if not properly assessed and 
controlled. Maintaining a strong control 
environment, with adequate procedures for 
identification, prioritization and assessment 
of risks and adhering to operational policies 
designed to reduce such risks to an acceptable 
level, is essential for the continued evolution 
of Genmab. It is our policy to identify and 
reduce the risks derived from our operations 
and to establish insurance coverage and 
other enterprise risk reduction and resilience 
mechanisms to mitigate any residual risk, 
wherever considered practicable. The Audit 
and Finance Committee of the Board performs 
a yearly review of Genmab’s Enterprise Risk 
Program and relevant insurance coverage to 
ensure that they are appropriate for Genmab. 
For further information about the risks and 
uncertainties that Genmab faces, refer to the 
current Form 20-F filed with the SEC.
The use of data, as defined in the Danish 
Financial Statements Act, both personal 
and non-personal, is essential to fulfilling 
Genmab’s core purpose; and Genmab is 
committed to handling data with integrity 
and in an ethical and compliant manner 
considering the impact our actions may have 
on individuals and society.
Genmab has a policy for Data Ethics in 
compliance with Section 99d of the Danish 
Financial Statements Act in which Genmab 
adopted the Data Ethics principles of the 
International Federation of Pharmaceutical 
Manufacturers & Associations (IFPMA).
These principles complement and strengthen 
already existing Genmab policies and procedures, 
and they focus on the following areas:
Genmab will continue to focus on these 
principles, particularly in the areas of 
data privacy, DE&I, clinical trials, and the 
application of new technologies (e.g., Artificial 
Intelligence and Machine Learning), where 
policies, processes, and training materials 
will be aligned with the above-mentioned 
principles. The Genmab Data Ethics policy 
and its principles are anchored in the Genmab 
Code of Conduct as part of the overall Genmab 
Compliance program.
1. Autonomy
Respect individuals’ privacy, protect their rights, 
and honor confidentiality
2. Transparency
Individuals should be able to understand how 
their personal data is used
3. Data Quality
The best quality data available should be used 
to make decisions
4. Fairness and  
Non-discrimination
Data acquisition should be inclusive, equitable, 
and seek to support the industry’s mission of 
responding to the needs of all patients

Business and 
Products
The identification and development of 
successful products is expensive and 
includes time-consuming clinical trials with 
uncertain outcomes and the risk of failure 
to obtain regulatory approval in one or more 
jurisdictions.
Genmab has a disciplined approach to investment, focusing 
on areas with the potential to maximize success, including new 
technologies and formats, scaling up to expand from early- to late-
stage development and commercialization. Genmab has established 
various committees to ensure optimal selection of disease targets 
and formats of our antibody candidates, and to monitor progress 
of preclinical and clinical development. We strive to have a well-
balanced product pipeline, continuing to search for and identify new 
product candidates, and closely monitoring the market landscape.
Genmab is dependent on the identification and 
development of new proprietary technologies 
and access to new third-party technologies. 
This exposes us to safety issues as well as 
other failures and setbacks related to use of 
such new or existing technologies.
Genmab strives to identify and develop new antibody-based 
products that harness new antibody technologies, such as the 
DuoBody, HexaBody, DuoHexaBody and HexElect technology 
platforms, ADC technology, and gain access to competitive and 
complementary new third-party technologies. We closely monitor our 
preclinical programs and clinical trials to mitigate any unforeseen 
safety issues or other failures, or setbacks associated with the use of 
these technology platforms.
Genmab faces ongoing uncertainty about 
the successful commercialization of product 
candidates. This is a result of factors including 
immense competition on the basis of cost 
and efficacy as well as rapid technological 
change, which may result in others discovering, 
developing or commercializing competing 
products before and/or more successfully 
than us. 
From early in the research phase and throughout development, 
commercial potential and product commercialization, associated 
risks are assessed to ensure that final products have the potential 
to be commercially viable. Genmab attempts to control commercial 
risks in part by regularly monitoring and evaluating current market 
conditions, competing products and new technologies, to potentially 
gain access to new technologies and products that may supplement 
our pipeline. Genmab also strives to ensure market exclusivity for 
its own technologies and products by seeking patent protection. 
Genmab engages with patients and caregivers to gather insights and 
improve patient outcomes.
 
The following is a summary of Genmab’s 
key risk areas, including sustainability-
related risks, and how we address and 
mitigate such risks.

Business and 
Products
(continued)
Genmab’s near- and mid-term prospects are 
substantially dependent on continued clinical 
and commercial success of DARZALEX.
The impact of DARZALEX patent expirations, 
typically followed by the introduction of 
competing generic, biosimilar or other 
products could have an adverse impact on 
Genmab’s future royalty revenue.
DARZALEX is subject to intense competition in 
the multiple myeloma therapy market.
Genmab focuses on its three-pronged strategy of focusing on our core 
competence, turning science into medicine and building a profitable 
and successful biotech to develop a broad pipeline of unique best-in-
class or first-in-class antibody products with significant commercial 
potential. In addition, Genmab maintains a strong cash position, 
disciplined financial management, and a flexible and capital efficient 
business model to mitigate potential setbacks related to DARZALEX.
To address the impact of DARZALEX loss of exclusivity, Genmab 
intends to mitigate this risk through its strong foundation in science 
and investments in launched medicines as well as its existing, and 
potential acquisition of new, late-stage assets. Genmab manages 
and maintains efficient operations through focused prioritization and 
increased productivity.
Including DARZALEX there are eight commercialized medicines on the 
market that drive significant recurring revenue for the company. In 
2020, two additional Genmab-created antibody products, Kesimpta 
and TEPEZZA, were approved by the U.S. FDA. In 2021, 2022, and 
2023, respectively, Genmab’s bispecific DuoBody technology was 
the basis for the DuoBody-based medicines RYBREVANT, TECVAYLI 
and TALVEY, which were approved by the U.S. FDA and the EC. All 
of these provide Genmab with additional recurring royalty revenue. 
Tivdak, Genmab’s first medicine, in development with Pfizer, was 
approved by the U.S. FDA and product sales of Tivdak commenced in 
2021. EPKINLY/TEPKINLY, Genmab’s second medicine, in development 
with AbbVie, was approved by the U.S. FDA, the Japan MHLW and the 
EC and product sales of EPKINLY/TEPKINLY commenced in 2023. In 
addition, we currently have two wholly owned programs, Rina-S and 
acasunlimab, which moved into Phase 3 development in 2024.
Genmab has exposure to product liability 
claims related to the use or misuse of our 
products and technologies.
Product liability claims and/or litigation could materially affect our 
business and financial position, and Genmab therefore strives to 
maintain internal processes for the review, approval, and compliant 
use of promotion materials and also maintains appropriate product 
liability insurance for our clinical trials and our approved products and 
other coverage required under applicable laws.

Business and 
Products
(continued)
Our core research and manufacturing activities 
are carried out at a limited number of locations. 
Any event resulting in Genmab’s or our 
vendors’/suppliers’ inability to operate these 
facilities could materially disrupt our business. 
Genmab employs oversight and quality risk management principles. 
In addition, Genmab follows current Good Laboratory Practices 
(cGLP) and current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) and 
requires that our vendors operate with the same standards. 
Genmab’s quality assurance (QA) department ensures that high-
quality standards are set and monitors adherence to these practices. 
If we are unable to effectively manage 
Genmab’s fast-paced growth, or maintain 
our commercialization and other capabilities 
at adequate levels, and control operating 
costs within the scope of our overall business 
as well as properly integrate acquisitions, 
financial condition and net profits may be 
adversely affected. Any business disruption or 
failure to properly manage growth, maintain 
capabilities and transformation in a manner 
that reflects and supports our organizational 
strategies and priorities, while assuring ethical 
business practices, prudent risk management, 
and commercial compliance, could have a 
material adverse effect on our business, 
financial condition, results of operations and 
cash flows.
We have experienced rapid growth over the last several years. 
We anticipate additional growth as our pipeline advances and 
we continue product commercialization activities. Such growth, 
including maintaining and enabling R&D, commercialization, 
and support functions, has placed significant demands on our 
management and infrastructure, including new operational 
and financial systems, as well as extending manufacturing and 
commercial outsource arrangements. Our success will depend in part 
upon our ability to manage and maintain operations and integrate 
acquisitions effectively through leadership, focused prioritization, 
increased productivity and talent management to maintain our 
values-based, collaborative culture. As we continue to grow and 
evolve, we must continuously improve our operational, commercial, 
compliance, financial and management practices, and controls. 
Genmab is subject to government regulations 
on pricing/public reimbursement as well as 
other healthcare payer cost-containment 
initiatives; increased pressures by 
governmental and third-party payers to reduce 
healthcare costs.
Genmab strives to develop differentiated antibody medicines that 
bring meaningful impact to patients and health systems and are well-
positioned to secure reasonable price reimbursement by government 
healthcare programs and private health insurers. The impact our 
science has on patients today and in the future, particularly those 
with few treatment options, drives the value of our medicines. 
Genmab’s U.S. Government Affairs & Policy department interacts 
with U.S. federal and state policymakers to advance policies aimed 
at improving patients’ lives through access to quality healthcare 
and innovative science. Genmab’s U.S. Market Access department 
educates payers on the value of our products and works across 
the healthcare system to help ensure all appropriate patients gain 
access to our innovative medicines.

Strategic 
Collaborations
Genmab is dependent on existing partnerships 
with major pharmaceutical or biotech 
companies to support our business and 
develop and extend the commercialization of 
our products.
Our business may suffer if our collaboration partners do not 
devote sufficient resources to our programs and products, do not 
successfully maintain, defend and enforce their intellectual property 
rights or do not otherwise have the ability to successfully develop or 
commercialize our products, independently or in collaboration with 
others. Our business may also suffer if we are not able to continue 
our current collaborations or establish new collaborations. Genmab 
strives to be an attractive and respected collaboration partner, and 
to pursue a close and open dialogue with our collaboration partners 
to share ideas and align on best practices and decisions within 
clinical development and commercial operations to increase the 
likelihood that we reach our goals. 
Genmab is primarily dependent on one 
contract manufacturing organization (CMO) 
and individual sites at the CMO to produce and 
supply our product candidates. Genmab is also 
dependent on clinical research organizations 
to conduct key aspects of our clinical trials, 
and on collaboration partners to conduct some 
of our clinical trials.
CMOs may be subject to or affected by various 
U.S. legislation, executive orders, regulations, 
or investigations. 
Genmab oversees outsourcing and partnership relationships 
to ensure consistency with strategic objectives and service 
provider compliance with regulatory requirements, resources, 
and performance. This includes assessment of contingency plans, 
availability of alternative service providers and costs and resources 
required to switch service providers. We continually evaluate 
financial solvency and require our suppliers to abide by a code of 
conduct consistent with Genmab’s Code of Conduct.

Genmab is subject to strict disclosure 
obligations under applicable laws and 
regulations globally, including the EU Market 
Abuse Regulation and the U.S. Inflation 
Reduction Act (IRA). Being listed on the 
Nasdaq Global Select Market, we are subject 
to additional U.S. regulatory requirements, 
including U.S. securities laws and the U.S. 
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and may become 
more exposed to U.S. class actions. 
To ensure compliance with applicable healthcare laws and 
regulations, Genmab has established a compliance program, 
including a Code of Conduct that is regularly evaluated and sets 
high ethical standards on which all colleagues receive regular 
training. Genmab also maintains a Speak Up Policy and Hotline for 
reporting and response to potential misconduct. Our head of Global

Genmab is committed to transparency of clinical trial research and 
has published our Clinical Trial Transparency Declaration. Genmab 
is also committed to ensuring equal access to Genmab clinical trials 
and that patients participating in our trials are representative of 
those living with the disease being studied.
Genmab respects the privacy, protection, and appropriate use of 
data by ensuring compliance with all applicable privacy and data 
protection laws, regulations, and other standards. In support of this 
commitment, Genmab established its Global Data Privacy Office 
supported by a cross-functional team of privacy subject matter 
experts, including a Data Protection Officer, who collaborate in 
the development and maintenance of a forward-looking Global 
Data Privacy Program that seeks address shifts in both the internal 
and external environments, along with emerging challenges in the 
privacy and data protection regulatory landscape. The Program, 
through its policies, procedures, and centralized guidance 
for processing personal data, seeks to drive organizational 
accountability and empower Genmab colleagues, and our third 
party partners, to handle personal data consistent with our values of 
ethical behavior, integrity, fairness, inclusion, and transparency.
To further support compliance with regulatory, legal, and other 
requirements applicable to our business and operations, including 
current Good Laboratory Practices (cGLP), current Good Clinical 
Practices (cGCP) and current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), 
Genmab’s QA department is staying abreast of and adhering to 
regulatory and legislative changes relevant to quality standards.

Intellectual 
Property 
Genmab is dependent on protecting our own 
intellectual property rights to regain our 
investments and protect our competitive 
positions.
We may become involved in lawsuits to protect 
or enforce our patents or other intellectual 
property which could result in costly litigation 
and unfavorable outcomes.
Claims may be asserted against us that we 
infringe the intellectual property of third 
parties, which could result in costly litigation 
and unfavorable outcomes. 
Genmab files and prosecutes patent applications to optimally

technologies, Genmab maintains strict confidentiality standards and 
agreements for employees and collaborating parties.
Genmab actively monitors third-party patent positions within our 
relevant fields to avoid violating any third-party patent rights.
Finances
Genmab may need additional funding.
Because Genmab’s future commercial potential and operating profits 
are hard to predict, Genmab’s policy is to maintain a strong capital 
base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence, 
and a continuous advancement of Genmab’s product pipeline and 
business in general. Genmab also has access to revolving loan 
facility totaling USD 300 million, with options to increase size of the 
facility up to USD 500 million, which can be drawn down upon as 
another source of additional funding.

evolving set of risks, some of which 
are beyond our control. Genmab has 
core facilities in five countries, conduct 
activities in additional areas, and perform 
an array of essential innovation, research, 
development, manufacturing activities, 
commercial operations, and support 
functions, all of which pose risks to our 
operations and success. Specifically, these 
operations and activities expose us to 
risks that include but may not be limited 
to financial, research and development, 
regulatory, IT/data/technology, 
staffing, compliance, legal, and also 
environmental risks.
In order to assure that we are positioned 
to effectively identify and mitigate the 
potential impacts of these risks, Genmab 
has dedicated resources toward enabling 
its ERM framework under the Global 
Compliance & Risk function that reports 
directly to the CEO. In concert with a 
refreshed Code of Conduct, company 
policies and procedures, Genmab has 
chartered a Global Compliance and Risk 
Governance Committee (GCRC) co-chaired 
by the CEO and the head of Compliance 
& Risk. Genmab has also updated its risk 
model and framework to include enhanced 
risk oversight, mitigation, governance, and 
reporting, all of which we believe positions 
us to better manage the risks associated 
with our business, now and into the future.
Enterprise Risk Management
Effective ERM starts with strong governance
Board and Audit and 
Finance Committee
Board delegates ERM/Risk oversight to the Audit and Finance 
Committee but retains visibility of ERM progress. The Audit 
and Finance Committee is accountable to ensure management 
appropriately manages the risks to the business.
Executive 
Management
Maintains ultimate ownership of and accountability for 
management of top risks, enabling proper linkage of risk 
management to strategic initiatives and business decisions.
GCRC
Validates risk identification, prioritization, strategic and 
tactical ownership of risk mitigation plans and reporting.
ERM Framework
Routinely gathers risks, evaluates with risk sponsors, 
prioritizes, and reports to the GCRC, Executive Management 
and Board, driving risk discussions, and supporting risk 
sponsors and management in facilitating ERM processes,  
risk-intelligent decision-making, and key risk capabilities.
Risk Sponsors and 
Business Champions
Manage risks in the normal course of business, executing risk 
plans/mitigation activities, and monitoring and reporting key 
risk information.

Corporate Governance
Genmab works diligently to improve its 
guidelines and policies for corporate 
governance, taking into account the recent 
trends in international and domestic 
requirements and recommendations. 
Genmab’s commitment to corporate 
governance is based on ethics and 
integrity and forms the basis of its effort 
to strengthen the confidence that existing 
and future shareholders, partners, 
employees, and other stakeholders have 
in Genmab. The role of shareholders 
and their interaction with Genmab is 
important. Genmab believes that open and 
transparent communication is necessary 
to maintain the confidence of Genmab’s 
shareholders and achieves this through 
company announcements, investor 
meetings and company presentations. 
Genmab is committed to providing reliable 
and transparent information about its 
business, financial results, development 
programs and scientific results in a clear 
and timely manner.
All Danish companies listed on the Nasdaq 
Copenhagen are required to disclose in 
their annual reports how they address 
the Recommendations for Corporate 
Governance issued by the Committee on 
Corporate Governance in December 2020 
(the “Recommendations”), applying the 
“comply-or-explain” principle.
Genmab follows the Recommendations, except 
for one specific sub-area where Genmab’s 
corporate governance principles differ from the 
Recommendations:
•	The Recommendations provide that according 
to a company’s takeover contingency 
procedures, the Board abstains from 
countering any takeover bids by taking actions 
that seek to prevent the shareholders from 
deciding on the takeover bid, without the 
approval of the general meeting. Genmab 
does not have such a restriction in its takeover 
contingency procedures and retains the right 
in certain circumstances to reject takeover 
bids without consulting the shareholders. 
Genmab believes this provides the Board 
with the needed flexibility to best respond to 
takeover bids and to negotiate with bidders; 
retaining this flexibility helps the Board meet 
its objectives in protecting and creating value 
in the interest of the shareholders. Actions 
will be determined on a case-by-case basis 
with due consideration of the interests of the 
shareholders and other stakeholders.
Genmab publishes its statutory report on 
Corporate Governance for the financial year 
2024 cf. Article 107b of the Danish Financial 
Statements Act (“Lovpligtig redegørelse for 
virksomhedsledelse jf. årsregnskabslovens § 
107 b”) on the Company’s website, including a 
detailed description of the Board’s consideration 
in respect of all the Recommendations. The 
statutory report on Corporate Governance can be 
found on Genmab’s website https://ir.genmab.
com/corporate-governance.
The Board of Directors
The Board is responsible for setting the overall 
strategy and goals for Genmab and monitoring 
its operations and results. Board duties include 
establishing policies for strategy, accounting, 
organization and finance and the appointment of 
Executive Management members. The Board also 
assesses Genmab’s capital and share structure 
and is responsible for approving share issues and 
the grant of warrants and RSUs.
The Board has established an annual process 
whereby the Board’s performance is assessed 
through self-evaluation to verify that the 
Board is capable of fulfilling its function and 
responsibilities. When performing these 
evaluations external assistance is obtained every 
year. The outcome of the Board‘s 2024 self-
assessment was positive with only minor areas 
for improvement identified.
Board Committees
To support the Board in its duties, the Board 
has established and appointed a Compensation 
Committee, an Audit and Finance Committee, 
a Nominating and Corporate Governance 
Committee and a Scientific Committee. These 
committees are charged with reviewing issues 
pertaining to their respective fields that are due 
to be considered at Board meetings. Written 
charters specifying the tasks and responsibilities 
for each of the committees are available on 
Genmab’s website www.genmab.com.
For more details on the work, composition and 
evaluation of the Board and its committees, 
reference is made to the statutory report on 
Corporate Governance.
Remuneration Policy
A Remuneration Policy applying to the 
compensation of members of the Board and the 
registered Executive Management of Genmab 
A/S has been prepared in accordance with 
Sections 139 and 139a of the Danish Companies 
Act and was most recently considered and 
adopted by the 2024 Annual General Meeting 
pursuant to the Danish Companies Act (in 
Danish “Selskabsloven”). The Remuneration 
Policy contains an exhaustive description of the 
remuneration components for members of the 
Board and the registered Executive Management 
and includes the reasons for choosing the 
individual components of the remuneration 
and a description of the criteria on which the 
balance between the individual components of 
the remuneration is based. The latest version can 
be downloaded from Genmab’s website https://
ir.genmab.com/compensation.
Compensation Report
In accordance with the Recommendations, 
Genmab has prepared a compensation report 
for the financial year 2024 that includes 
information on the total remuneration received 
by each member of the Board and the registered 
Executive Management of Genmab A/S for the 
last four years, including information on the most 
important content of retention and resignation 
arrangements and the correlation between the 
remuneration and company strategy and relevant 
related goals (the “Compensation Report”). The 
Compensation Report can be found on Genmab’s 
website https://ir.genmab.com/compensation.

Change of Control
The Danish Financial Statements Act (Section 
107a) contains rules relating to listed companies 
with respect to certain disclosures that may be 
of interest to the stock market and potential 
takeover bidders, in particular in relation to 
disclosure of change of control provisions. In the 
event of a change of control, change of control 
clauses are included in some of our collaboration, 
development, and license agreements as well as 
in service agreements for certain employees.
Collaboration, Development and 
License Agreements
Genmab has entered into collaboration, 
development and license agreements with external 
parties, which may be subject to renegotiation in 
the case of a change of control event as specified in 
the individual agreements. However, any changes 
in the agreements are not expected to have 
significant impact on our financial position.
Service Agreements with Executive 
Management and Employees
The service agreements with each registered 
member of the Executive Management may be 
terminated by Genmab with no less than 12 
months’ notice and by the registered member of 
the Executive Management with no less than six 
months’ notice. In the event of a change of control 
of Genmab, the termination notice due to the 
registered member of the Executive Management 
is extended to 24 months. In the event of 
termination by Genmab (unless for cause) or by 
a registered member of Executive Management 
as a result of a change of control of Genmab, 
Genmab is obliged to pay a registered member 
of Executive Management a compensation 
equal to his/her existing total salary (including 
benefits) for up to two years in addition to the 
notice period.
In addition, Genmab has entered into service 
agreements with a limited number of employees 
according to which Genmab may become obliged 
to compensate the employees in connection with 
a change of control of Genmab. If Genmab, as a 
result of a change of control, terminates the service 
agreement without cause or changes the working 
conditions to the detriment of the employee, 
the employee shall be entitled to terminate the 
employment relationship without further cause 
with one month’s notice in which case Genmab 
shall pay the employee a compensation equal to 
one-half, one or two times the employee’s existing 
annual salary (including benefits).
Change of control clauses related to our warrant 
and RSU programs are outlined in Note 4.6.
Share capital
Information on share capital is included in 
Note 4.7. Unless otherwise provided in the 
Danish Companies Act, the adoption of any 
resolution to amend Genmab A/S’ articles of 
association shall be subject to the affirmative 
vote of not less than two thirds of the votes cast, 
as well as of the voting share capital represented 
at the general meeting. Genmab A/S’ entire 
articles of association can be found on our 
website www.genmab.com.

Sustainability Statements
1.1	
Basis for presentation
General basis for preparation of the 
sustainability statement (BP-1)
Frameworks
The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive 
(CSRD) directs public companies to report in 
line with the European Sustainability Reporting 
Standards (ESRS) starting on or after January 1, 
2024. As a result, this 2024 annual report marks 
the first year in which Genmab is reporting in 
accordance with this directive and the underlying 
reporting standards. Genmab’s sustainability 
statements have been prepared in compliance 
with the ESRS as required by sections 99a of the 
Danish Financial Statements Act.
Consolidation
The sustainability statements have been 
prepared on a consolidated basis in line with our 
consolidated financial statements; therefore, the 
disclosures comprise the Genmab A/S (parent 
company) and its subsidiaries. The E1 disclosures 
in particular have been consolidated on the basis 
of both financial and operational control. The 
sustainability statements cover Genmab’s own 
operations and upstream and downstream value 
chains, where material, specifically regarding 
disclosures around impacts, risks and opportuni-
ties (IROs), policies, actions, targets and metrics. 
Genmab has not omitted any specific pieces 
of information corresponding to intellectual 
property, know-how or the results of innova-
tion nor used the exemption from disclosure of 
impending developments or matters in the course 
of negotiation.
Disclosures in relation to specific 
circumstances (BP-2)
Disclosures Stemming from 
Other Regulation
Genmab’s sustainability statements also comply 
with sections 99d and 107(d) of the Danish 
Financial Statements Act. Refer to Appendix A for 
a full overview.
Accounting Policies
Genmab’s accounting policies have been applied, 
in all material respects, consistently in the 
financial year and for comparative figures.
Key Accounting Estimates and Judgements
Genmab uses estimates and judgements for 
the reporting of certain data points related to 
our Scope 3 emissions, which are detailed in 
the relevant accounting policies. Quantifying 
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inherently 
involves significant uncertainty due to the 
complexity of natural and anthropogenic 
systems. Measurement challenges arise from 
factors such as variability in emissions sources, 
accuracy of data and assumptions in emission 
factors. We regularly reassess our use of 
estimates and judgements based on experience, 
the development of sustainability reporting, 
and a number of other factors. Changes in 
estimates are recognized in the period in which 
the estimate in question is revised. In addition, 
we make judgements when we apply the 
accounting policies.
Refer to the quantitative data tables in the 
sustainability statements for further informa-
tion on accounting policies, key estimates, 
judgements, and assumptions applied.
Incorporation by Reference
Genmab’s management report consists of a 
Management’s Review section and these sustain-
ability statements which reports disclosure 
requirements from the ESRS. Our sustainability 
statements are structured into four overall 
sections: ‘General Information,’ ‘Environmental,’ 
‘Social,’ and ‘Governance.’ Genmab has chosen 
to incorporate some of the strategy and gover-
nance disclosures from the cross-cutting 
standard ESRS 2 in the Management’s Review 
as we believe this information is best read in 
close connection with our Financial Review and 
overview of our activities. Where incorporation 
by reference is used to refer outside of these 
sustainability statements, it is clearly defined.
Genmab considers forward-looking information 
including targets disclosed in the sustainability 
statements to be uncertain.
1.2	
Governance
The role of the administrative, 
management and supervisory bodies 
(GOV-1), and information provided 
to, and sustainability matters 
addressed by the undertaking’s 
administrative, management and 
supervisory bodies (GOV-2)
At Genmab, sustainability governance is 
ingrained in our overall corporate governance 
framework, reflecting our commitment to inte-
grating sustainable practices into all aspects of 
our business. Genmab’s sustainability gover-
nance structure is robust, with clear roles and 
responsibilities defined at various levels of the 
organization.
At the highest level, the Board (which includes 
0 executive members and 9 non-executive 
members) oversees sustainability strategy and 
performance, ensuring alignment with Genmab’s 
long-term business objectives and stakeholder 
expectations. The Board receives updates on CSR 
and sustainability initiatives at least annually, has 
oversight of material impacts, risks, and oppor-
tunities (IROs) and targets identified by Genmab, 
and enables informed decision-making that incor-
porates environmental, social, and governance 
(ESG) considerations.
It is the Board’s aim to maintain an equitable 
gender representation in the Board. As of 
December 31, 2024, the six shareholder-elected 
board members are evenly split between 50% 
male (three persons) and 50% female (three 
persons) which constitutes equal gender 
representation in accordance with the guidelines 
from the Danish Business Authority. As of 
December 31, 2024, at the Board level, five or 
56%, are independent, and four or 44%, are 
not independent. In accordance with the Danish 
corporate governance recommendations, we 
consider shareholder-elected board member 
Anders Gersel Pedersen non-independent 
solely by virtue of the length of his tenure on 
our Board, following his election to the Board in 
2003. Also, the three employee-elected board 
members are non-independent.
Our Board’s Nominating and Corporate 
Governance Committee oversees our corporate 
governance, CSR, ESG and sustainability efforts 
and provides recommendations to the Board on 
corporate governance, CSR, ESG and sustain-
ability matters. Additionally, the Board’s Audit 
and Finance Committee oversees our sustain-
ability reporting requirements.

Sustainability Statements
Within the management structure, Genmab has 
established a dedicated CSR & Sustainability 
Committee, which is co-chaired by our CEO and 
SVP of Global Communications and Corporate 
Affairs and is comprised of senior leaders from 
relevant functional areas, such as research 
and development, operations, compliance and 
risk, legal, human resources, and finance. This 
committee is responsible for setting strategic 
priorities, management of material IROs and 
targets, and monitoring progress towards sustain-
ability goals. It also facilitates cross-­functional 
collaboration to drive innovation and continuous 
improvement in sustainability performance.
Under the CSR & Sustainability Committee, 
Genmab has established a Corporate Sustainability 
Team comprised of Genmab employees respon-
sible for driving the double materiality assessment 
process including the identification of material 
impacts, risks and opportunities, targets/goals, 
actions and metrics, and the collection and 
documentation of relevant data for sustain-
ability reporting requirements. The Corporate 
Sustainability Team coordinates with internal 
stakeholders (other Genmab employees) respon-
sible for integrating sustainability strategy into 
business operations. The Corporate Sustainability 
Team is responsible for monitoring and reporting 
on progress towards targets at least annually.
Sustainability reporting is approved annually 
by Executive Management (which includes 
9 executive members and 0 non-executive 
members) and the Board. Executive Management 
and the Board have significant global expertise 
in the pharmaceutical, biotech and life 
sciences industries with specific expertise in 
Environmental, Social and Governance matters. 
Further, Genmab has access to experts and has 
utilized the expertise of outside consultants 
in preparing its DMA and with regards to envi-
ronmental matters. Refer to the biographies 
in the “Board of Directors” and “Executive 
Management” sections in Management’s 
Review for an understanding of the relevant 
experience (including sustainability-­
related expertise).
Genmab maintains transparent communication 
channels with stakeholders, including investors 
and proxy advisors, employees, customers, 
suppliers, and the broader community, regarding 
its sustainability efforts. Genmab regularly 
discloses sustainability-related information 
through various channels, such as annual 
reports, investor presentations and engagement 
sessions. By fostering dialogue and incorporating 
feedback from stakeholders, Genmab ensures 
that its sustainability initiatives are responsive to 
evolving expectations and societal needs.
For Business Conduct matters, the leaders of our 
Global Compliance, Data Privacy, and Enterprise 
Risk Management Programs report directly to the 
CEO and the Board.
Overall, sustainability governance at Genmab 
is characterized by proactive leadership, robust 
oversight, and stakeholder engagement, 
reflecting our commitment to creating long-term 
value while contributing positively to society and 
the environment.
Refer to the “Corporate Governance” section in 
Management’s Review for additional informa-
tion on governance structure.
Refer to section SBM-3 for a list of the material 
impacts, risks and opportunities addressed by 
management and those charged with gover-
nance during the reporting period.

Sustainability-related performance 
in incentive schemes (GOV-3)
Per Genmab’s Remuneration Policy, the variable 
compensation of the Executive Management 
is based on the achievement of specific Key 
Performance Indicators (KPIs) and performance 
goals that relate to the performance of each 
executive member and to Genmab A/S’ short and 
long-term business results. The KPIs and perfor-
mance goals that the Board sets for the purposes 
of Genmab A/S’ incentive arrangements — both 
annual and share-based — are directly linked to 
the business strategy and our annual business 
plans. The KPIs/performance goals may be 
financial, operational, and/or strategic and 
organizational. The KPIs/performance goals are 
recommended by the Compensation Committee 
and approved by the Board.
Genmab grants restricted stock units (RSUs) to 
Executive Management which are ­performance-​
based and include sustainability-­related 
performance goals, whereas RSUs granted to the 
Board are not performance-based and do not 
include sustainability-related performance goals. 
The key characteristics of the ­sustainability-­​
related performance goals are tied to Climate, 
Diversity and Employee Well-Being targets with 
equal weighting against the overall goals of 10% 
for the 2024 and 2023 grants, and 15% for the 
2022 grant. Share-based compensation granted 
is at a 4x target multiplier with maximum oppor-
tunity of 6x multiplier with no cap in 2024 and 
2023, compared to a 2.4x target multiplier with 
4x maximum with a grant date fair value cap of 
DKK 25 million in 2022. In 2025, Genmab plans 
to remove gender diversity balance targets from 
executive management performance criteria in 
future grants.
Refer to sections E1-4 and S1-5 for targets 
linked to Executive Management incentive 
compensation.
Total remuneration to registered Executive 
Management in 2024 was DKK 79.9 million. 
The proportion of total remuneration to regis-
tered Executive Management in 2024 linked 
to climate-related performance goals was 
DKK 1.8 million, or 2%. Total variable remunera-
tion to registered Executive Management in 2024 
was DKK 63.4 million and comprises annual cash 
bonus and share-based compensation expense. 
The proportion of variable remuneration to regis-
tered Executive Management in 2024 linked to 
all sustainability-related performance goals was 
DKK 5.7 million, or 9%.
Refer to Note 5.1 in the consolidated financial 
statements for details.

Risk management and internal controls 
over sustainability reporting (GOV-5)
Genmab assesses potential risks related 
to sustainability mainly through our CSR & 
Sustainability Committee but also as part of 
Genmab’s Enterprise Risk Program led by our 
Head of Global Compliance and Risk who reports 
directly to our CEO, both of which are members 
of the CSR & Sustainability Committee. Clearly 
defined sustainability governance aids the 
overall risk management process. The Board has 
a supervisory duty and Executive Management 
has overall responsibility for Genmab’s risk 
management and internal controls in relation to 
sustainability reporting processes.
Genmab evaluates how sustainability-related 
risks could affect operations, reputation, and 
financial performance. Genmab has also imple-
mented processes to ensure the accuracy and 
reliability of sustainability data collected from 
various internal stakeholders/departments, 
which help maintain transparency and trace-
ability of reported information.
Genmab aligns its sustainability reporting 
with recognized frameworks to ensure consis-
tency and comparability, and engages with

stakeholders to gather feedback and ensure 
reporting meets their needs and expectations.
Internal and external audits are conducted of 
sustainability reporting processes to assess 
compliance with established controls and 
processes. Genmab has an Internal Audit 
function that reports to the Audit and Finance 
Committee of the Board and administratively 
reports to the CFO, and any findings would be 
communicated through this channel at least 
annually. The Corporate Sustainability Team 
integrates the findings of its risk assessment 
and internal controls regarding the sustainability 
reporting process into relevant internal functions 
and processes.
Genmab’s external auditor provides limited 
assurance on Genmab’s sustainability 
statements.
Genmab provides training to employees on 
sustainability issues, related risk management 
practices and reporting responsibilities to 
foster a culture of accountability. These compo-
nents collectively help Genmab manage risks 
effectively and ensure the integrity of its sustain-
ability reporting.
Refer to Risk Management section in 
Management’s Review for the followed risk 
assessment approach including the risk 
prioritization methodology, details of risks 
identified and mitigation strategies, and 
related controls.

Interests and views of 
stakeholders (SBM-2)
As an international biotech company, Genmab 
engages continuously with a diverse range 
of stakeholders, all of whom have a vested 
interest in our business practices. This engage-
ment is crucial to our success and reinforces 
our commitment to benefiting both our direct 
stakeholders and society as a whole. Through 
ongoing dialogue, we seek to understand their 
perspectives, concerns, and expectations. These 
interactions inform our sustainability efforts, 
due diligence processes and double materiality 
assessments, ensuring that our actions align with 
the needs and insights of those we serve.
The views and interests of affected key stake-
holders regarding our sustainability-related 
impacts are regularly communicated to our CSR 
& Sustainability Committee through periodic 
meetings. For all key stakeholders listed in 
the table, Genmab listens to the views of 
stakeholders through engagement and takes 
these views into account, which has led to the 
outcomes disclosed.

effects of our impacts, risks and opportuni-
ties is included in the topical sections under 
‘Environmental,’ ‘Social,’ and ‘Governance.’ 
There, we also expand on the linkage to our 
sustainability strategy and business model, 
expected time horizons and the nature of the 
business relationship.
There is no significant risk of a material adjust-
ment within the next annual reporting period to 
the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities 
reported in the consolidated financial statements 
linked to material risks and opportunities iden-
tified in our sustainability reporting. Genmab 
has no material investment or disposal plans 
currently linked to our material IROs or planned 
sources of funding to implement our sustain-
ability strategy.
We have one entity specific IRO relating to 
G1: Business Conduct, Cybersecurity. This is 
Genmab’s first year of sustainability reporting and 
therefore there are no changes since the previous 
reporting period.

Impact, risk and opportunity 
management
Process to identify and assess 
material impacts, risks and 
opportunities (IRO-1)
A cornerstone element of the CSRD and ESRS 
is the concept of double materiality for sustain-
ability matters. The concept of double materiality 
means that a sustainability matter can have an 
inside-out impact (i.e., an impact that Genmab 
has or can have on people and/or the environ-
ment — this is called ‘impact materiality’) or 
an outside-in impact (i.e., a (actual/potential) 
financial impact (risk/opportunity) from a 
sustainability matter on Genmab — this is called 
‘financial materiality’).
Genmab performed a double materiality assess-
ment (DMA) for the first time as part of our 2024 
sustainability reporting and we look forward 
to incorporating our sustainability strategy in 
our day-to-day business operations over the 
coming year(s).
From a governance perspective, the Corporate 
Sustainability Team drove the execution of the 
DMA. The approach for and outcomes of the 
double materiality were extensively discussed 
with and approved by Executive Management 
and our Board and its relevant Committees. 
Refer to GOV-1 and GOV-2 for further details 
on the governance structure with regards to 
sustainability.
Scope
The scope of the DMA entailed the parent 
company, Genmab A/S, and its subsidiaries on a 
consolidated basis as well as our upstream and 
downstream value chain.
Material topics
Genmab engaged a sustainability consultancy 
firm to assist in the performance of a DMA in 
accordance with the CSRD and the underlying 
ESRS. During this process, which involved 
numerous internal and external stakeholders, 
we determined seven (7) topics, sub-topics 
or sub-sub topics to be material for Genmab. 
These seven material topics link to four (4) of the 
standards (ESRS E1, S1, S4 and G1).
Non-material topics
Genmab screened site locations and assets 
across Denmark, the Netherlands, the U.S., 
Japan and China including business activities 
and considering all Application Requirement 
16 topics, determined ESRS E2, E3, E4, E5, S1 
(specific to other work-related rights), S2 and S3 
to be not material from an impact or financial 
perspective. In our analysis, we considered 
our own operations and upstream and down-
stream value chain and were not aware of any 
material matters to disclose in our sustainability 
statements. We surveyed internal stakeholders 
and external stakeholders and performed 
desk research, held workshops and deep-dive 
sessions, and noted no issues triggering these 
topics to be material for Genmab. E4 followed 
the same approach as above and as such we did 
not perform a detailed assessment to identify 
related IROs.

Sustainability Statements
The process of how the DMA was performed, and 
description of how we arrived at these material 
topics is described below.
Value chain analysis and 
stakeholder selection
As an initial step, Genmab defined our value 
chain and key stakeholders, focusing both on our 
own operations, as well as on our value chain. 
We conducted desk research that included peer 
reviews on sustainability topics and research 
on the relevance of sustainability topics for the 
pharmaceutical sector. Based on the outcomes 
of this mapping exercise and desk research, we 
determined initial topics for the longlist used in 
the double materiality analysis.
We selected internal stakeholders from across 
our business operations to provide coverage 
across all ESRS topics, sub-topics, and sub-sub-
topics. Given the global scope of our business, 
we included internal stakeholders from across all 
our locations.
We interviewed external stakeholders repre-
senting at least one across each of the following: 
patient associations, investors, collaboration 
partners, sector organizations and civil society 
organizations. The input of these external stake-
holders, combined with the expertise of the 
internal stakeholders, provided valuable insights.
Longlist and validation
Following the analysis as described above, a 
longlist of material topics was prepared. This 
longlist was based on the guidance provided by 
the ESRS (ESRS 1 — Application Requirement 16), 
further complemented by insights from the value 
chain and stakeholder analyses, other regulatory 
frameworks, and desktop peer review.
Based on this longlist, both impact materiality 
and financial materiality were assessed through 
surveys, interviews, and workshops. The combi-
nation of these three methods ensured coverage 
of the broad range of stakeholders and provided 
room to finetune the outcomes to reflect any 
(regional) nuances during the workshops.
The surveys provided input from a broad audience 
and led to initial scoring. Internal and external 
interviews conducted before the workshops and 
after the workshops provided expert insight and 
guidance to validate outcomes. Refer below for 
further detail on the execution of the impact mate-
riality and financial materiality analyses.
Double Materiality
The ESRS prescribes companies to assess topics 
that are material to the business from an impact 
and/or financial perspective. The following para-
graphs describe the methodology Genmab used 
to assess both impact and financial materiality.
Impact Materiality
ESRS 1, ‘General Requirements,’ highlights the 
indicators that companies should consider in 
assessing their impacts on sustainability matters. 
The assessment of impacts is aligned with other 
international standards, such as the United 
Nations Guiding Principles on Business and 
Human Rights (UNGP) and the Organization for 
Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD) 
Guidelines. International standards prescribe 
that impacts should be rated based on their 
severity. The concept of severity is based on the 
factors scale, scope, and irremediable character 
of the impact. In case of positive impacts, scoring 
irremediability is unnecessary. For Genmab, all 
the mentioned individual factors were rated on a 
scale of 1 to 5, based on which an average score 
was calculated.
In case of potential impacts, participants also 
rated likelihood on a scale of 0 to 1. For actual 
impacts, the likelihood is automatically scored as 
1 since the likelihood has already been proven. 
For completeness’ sake, we note that for potential 
negative impacts regarding human rights, 
severity took precedence over likelihood as also 
prescribed by the ESRS.
Other indicators that are prescribed by the ESRS 
for the assessment of impact materiality include: 
the topic’s location in the value chain (own opera-
tions, upstream or downstream), and whether the 
impact pertains to the undertaking in the short-, 
medium- or long-term scored as time horizons.
To summarize, all longlisted sustainability 
matters were scored using the following 
indicators:
(i)	 the topic’s location in the value chain (own 
operations, upstream or downstream),
(ii)	 whether it is an actual or potential impact,
(iii)	whether it is a positive or negative impact,
(iv)	time horizons, and
(v)	 scale, scope and irremediability of 
the impacts.
For a matter to be considered as impact material, 
we have used a relative threshold — i.e., we 
have used the average score for impact materi-
ality based on the five-point scale and set the 
threshold a full point higher.
Financial Materiality
During the preparation of the longlist, as well as 
during the workshops, we considered impacts 
and dependencies with the risks and opportu-
nities that may arise from these impacts and 
dependencies through extensively discussing the 
sustainability topic at hand and what impact it 
could have on Genmab and our business.
The scoring of financial materiality is largely 
similar to impact materiality; however, instead 
of focusing on impacts, financial materiality 
is based on risks and opportunities. Risks 
and opportunities are scored on the basis of 
magnitude (scale of 1 to 5), and likelihood (scale 
of 0 to 1). Participants also assess time horizons 
and location in the value chain.
For a matter to be considered as financial 
material, we initially used a similar relative 
threshold as for impact materiality: the average 
financial materiality score based on the five-point 
scale plus a full point. Our final results used a mix 
of qualitative and quantitative factors and our 
financial statement materiality level to conclude 
on material topics.

Validation
The survey outcomes were discussed with 
internal stakeholders during the workshops and 
deep-dive sessions. Where needed, changes 
and/or nuances were made. To further align 
and validate the outcomes of the DMA, these 
were presented to external stakeholders and 
internal interviews were conducted with subject 
matter experts.
All identified sustainability-related risks have 
been identified in prior year reporting under our 
ERM framework and continue to be updated and 
prioritized in line with other risks identified.
The final DMA for 2024 has been approved 
and adopted by the Board with the filing of this 
Annual Report.
Action
While conducting the DMA in 2024, we further 
integrated the various aspects of the DMA into 
our business. We focused on setting meaningful 
and appropriate targets for our material topics 
including defining the data gathering processes.
With our dedicated Corporate Sustainability 
Team, we intend to monitor our performance 
over the coming years, while remaining agile 
and current with our double materiality assess-
ment (e.g., following acquisitions or other major 
business changes).
Disclosure requirements in ESRS 
covered by the sustainability 
statement (IRO-2)
Following the outcome of our DMA, Genmab 
compiled a list of disclosure requirements 
including the page numbers and/or paragraphs 
where the related disclosures are located in the 
sustainability statements. This is presented as 
content indexes in the General, Environmental, 
Social and Governance sections of the sustain-
ability statements. Genmab has determined the 
material information to be disclosed in relation 
to the impacts, risks and opportunities assessed 
to be material, utilizing a mix of qualitative and 
quantitative factors and our financial statement 
materiality level.
Genmab also included a table of datapoints 
derived from other EU legislation in the appen-
dices to the sustainability statements.

Emissions from our value chain/
Emissions from our own operations
Climate change adaptation and mitigation is 
material due to GHG emissions primarily in our 
value chain, but also in our own operations, 
which has a negative impact on the environment 
with transitional and physical risks associated. 
Genmab has adaptation and mitigation efforts 
aligned with the Paris Agreement for a future 
where warming is kept at 1.5°C. Genmab is 
committed to reducing GHG emissions to limit the 
global warming the planet is facing.
In line with our ambitions to reduce Scope 3 
emissions through supplier engagement, Genmab 
has an opportunity to reduce GHG emissions in 
our upstream value chain by setting clear expec-
tations and requirements, providing incentives 
and setting goals, which could lead to more 
efficient production processes and cost savings 
for both Genmab and its suppliers.
In terms of our own operations, Genmab plans 
to reduce emissions by sourcing electricity from 
renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, 
hydroelectric, or geothermal power. Genmab has 
an opportunity to reduce emissions by actively 
investing in renewable energy procurement 
through power purchase agreements (PPAs), 
green tariffs, or direct ownership of renewable 
energy assets which could mitigate climate 
change risks relating to carbon taxation. Genmab 
can decrease the carbon intensity of its electricity 
consumption by contracting with renewable 
energy providers or investing in onsite renewable 
energy projects. This not only helps in reducing 
emissions, but also supports the growth of 
renewable energy markets and contributes to 
broader sustainability goals.
Genmab has an opportunity to reduce GHG 
emissions and promote health in the context 
of climate change through various initiatives 
targeting employee behavior and operational 
practices. We aim to reduce energy consumption 
and GHG emissions by implementing sustainable 
practices in laboratories in line with MyGreenLab 
recommendations. Additionally, we encourage 
employees to minimize air travel to lower GHG 
emissions while ensuring business continuity, 
supported by guidelines that have been in place 
for several years. Furthermore, establishing 
remote work policies and promoting alternative 
commuting methods, such as biking, carpooling, 
and public transit, can contribute to decreasing 
GHG emissions associated with employee 
commuting, fostering a healthier environment for 
all and could lead to cost savings.

Energy consumption
Genmab utilizes 61% renewable energy at our 
state-of-the-art buildings; therefore, there is 
a negative impact in terms of non-­renewable 
energy usage with risk associated with our 
energy mix; however, there is room to achieve 
100% renewable energy usage at all of 
our locations.
Genmab has an opportunity to increase energy 
efficiency in the procurement of new locations 
as operations expand in the future and major 
­renovations to existing locations which could lead 
to financial savings on operational expenses.
Refer to E1-5 for energy mix and 
consumption table.
Generation of energy from 
onsite solar panels
Genmab also has a positive impact from 
generation of energy through solar panels at 
our headquarters in Denmark and certain R&D 
locations in the Netherlands.
Refer to E1-4 for climate change targets.
Genmab’s Resilience to Climate Change
Genmab’s resilience analysis was conducted 
qualitatively in 2021, incorporating climate 
scenarios based on key reports from authorita-
tive bodies such as the Intergovernmental Panel 
on Climate Change (IPCC) and the International 
Energy Agency (IEA). No material changes to 
the analysis were identified in 2024, 2023 or 
2022. The analysis was conducted by assessing 
climate-related impacts across Genmab’s entire 
value chain, including supply chains, operations, 
energy consumption, and logistics.
This resilience analysis helps inform Genmab’s 
strategic planning, risk management, and 
financial planning processes, ensuring that 
climate-related risks and opportunities are 
integrated into the company’s Enterprise Risk 
Management (ERM) framework.
Genmab utilized two scenarios to explore 
potential transition and physical risks at a Paris 
Agreement aligned 1.5–2°C and a high emissions 
scenario at 4°C warming levels, considering both 
short-term (2030) and medium-to-long-term 
(2040/2050) time horizons in alignment with 
Genmab’s strategic planning horizons and its 
GHG emissions reduction targets.
•	The 1.5–2°C scenario assumes a transition to a 
low-carbon economy in line with global climate 
targets. This scenario evaluates risks and 
opportunities arising from regulatory actions 
such as carbon taxation, low-carbon technology 
adoption, and evolving consumer preferences 
toward sustainability.
•	The 4°C scenario represents a business-as-
usual pathway with high emissions and limited 
global mitigation efforts, leading to more severe 
physical risks such as extreme weather events, 
flooding, and disruptions to supply chains.
The key assumptions for the resilience analysis 
include the transition to a low-carbon economy, 
macroeconomic trends, energy consumption and 
mix, technology deployment and time horizons.
Based on the scenario analysis, Genmab iden-
tified several potential physical risks, transition 
risks and opportunities for both the 1.5–2°C and 
4°C warming scenarios across short-term and 
medium/long-term time frames. The identified 
physical and transition risks and opportunities 
were evaluated based on likelihood, magnitude 
and duration to Genmab’s operations and taking 
into account Genmab’s physical geographical 
locations at the time of conducting the analysis. 
No aspects of Genmab’s business were identified 
as incompatible with a transition to a climate 
neutral economy.
•	Key physical risks to Genmab’s business 
activities and assets identified in the scenarios: 
Disruption of supply chain and operations from 
extreme weather events, increased cooling 
costs from more frequent and severe heat 
waves, increased costs of raw materials due 
to changes in weather patterns and extreme 
weather events, operations and supply chain 
disruption from coastal flooding and damage to 
physical assets and inventory.
•	Key transition risks to Genmab’s business 
activities identified in the scenarios: Global 
carbon taxation and pricing impacting costs 
and financial returns, investor focus on climate 
performance limiting access to capital and 
investment, competition for talent in scientific 
and innovative fields becomes increasingly 
linked to climate performance, and cost of 
compliance with fragmented and drastic 
regulatory intervention.
While the scenario analysis identified potential 
physical and transition risks, the risk related to 
the Environment was identified as the material 
risk to Genmab. Refer to the Risk Management 
section in Management’s Review for risks 
related to the Environment.
Genmab has committed to a science-aligned 
emissions reduction target aligned with the 
Paris Agreement, aimed at reducing its GHG 
emissions in line with the global goal to limit 
warming to 1.5°C. This target plays a critical role 
in mitigating both transition and physical risks

by guiding risk mitigation, reducing exposure 
to physical risks and enhancing ­resilience to 
market shifts.
Uncertainties within the resilience analysis 
included climate projections under the scenarios 
and regulatory evolution over time.
Genmab’s resilience analysis, underpinned by 
qualitative scenario analysis and guided by a 
science-aligned emissions reduction target, high-
lights the company’s preparedness by adapting 
our strategy for both transition and physical 
climate risks in the medium and long term. The 
science-aligned emissions reduction target offers 
a clear pathway for mitigating these risks while 
also seizing opportunities associated with the 
transition to a low-carbon economy. Through its 
ongoing commitment to sustainability, Genmab 
is not only reducing its exposure to climate 
risks but also positioning itself for long-term 
business success in an increasingly climate-­
conscious world.

addressing risks, setting targets, and engaging 
stakeholders including suppliers. We have 
assessed potential climate-related risks to our 
own operations and our value chain — See the 
Risk Management section in Management’s 
Review for further details.
We have established science-aligned emissions 
reductions targets for reducing GHG emissions 
across our own operations and our value chain, 
aligning with the goals of the Paris Agreement to 
limit global warming to 1.5°C, and we have set 
targets for GHG emission reduction.
Genmab plans to reduce GHG emissions by:
•	engaging with suppliers and partners to ensure 
ongoing decarbonization of our value chain,
•	sourcing electricity from renewable energy 
sources such as solar, wind, hydroelectric, or 
geothermal power, and
•	encouraging and inspiring behavioral changes 
for our employees to reduce emissions

E1 Climate Change IRO Management
Policies related to climate change 
mitigation and adaptation (E1-2)
Genmab published its Corporate Social 
Responsibility (CSR) Policy in 2023 which was 
adopted by the Board and includes a focus on 
environmental sustainability.
In 2024, Genmab published an ­overarching 
Commitment to the Environment and 
Sustainability to manage material environ-
mental sustainability matters including material 
IROs covering climate change adaptation 
and mitigation, and energy, and matters not 
material to Genmab including water and circular 
economy. The Commitment to the Environment 
and Sustainability was adopted by the CSR & 
Sustainability Committee on December 11, 2024.
Genmab’s Commitment to the Environment and 
Sustainability applies to all employees and 
contractors and all activities within Genmab’s 
operations. It extends to all regions where 
Genmab operates, recognizing diverse environ-
mental challenges and opportunities.
Genmab’s CSR & Sustainability Committee, 
composed of cross-functional senior leaders, and 
co-lead by our CEO and SVP Communications & 
Corporate Affairs, is responsible for the oversight 
of Genmab’s Commitment to the Environment & 
Sustainability and implementation.
Genmab has included the perspectives of internal 
and external key experts and stakeholders in 
determining material environmental topics and 
in formulating Genmab’s Commitment to the 
Environment and Sustainability.
Genmab’s Commitment to the Environment and 
Sustainability is available for our key stake-
holders including our employees on our website 
(Genmab.com).
Refer to the Commitment to the Environment 
and Sustainability on our website.
Actions and resources in relation 
to climate change policies (E1-3)
Engaged with suppliers to encourage 
them to set their own emissions targets
We engage in continuous dialogue on sustain-
ability with our key suppliers so Genmab may 
meet our target as disclosed in E1-4.
In 2024, Genmab benchmarked the climate 
ambitions of our top suppliers to provide a clear 
baseline and identify actions and hotspots for 
improvement. We had in-person and virtual 
engagement with key suppliers identified as 
significant sources of emissions. Genmab estab-
lished formalized processes governing supplier 
engagement on climate change by incorporating 
specific climate change topics in the supplier 
onboarding and annual contract review.
Continued investment in Renewable 
Energy Procurement
In 2024, Genmab renegotiated an electricity 
contract to ensure that our sites continue towards 
our ambition of sourcing 100% renewable elec-
tricity to help mitigate our Scope 2 emissions.
Refer to E1-5 and E1-6 for further details on 
energy usage and mix, and GHG emissions.

E1 Climate Metrics and Targets
Targets related to climate change 
mitigation and adaptation (E1-4)
Genmab plans to minimize its carbon footprint 
across our business to align with a future where 
warming is kept at 1.5°C in line with the Paris 
Agreement. Genmab has considered a diverse 
range of climate scenarios when setting the 
targets. Specific targets consistent with Genmab’s 
GHG inventory are summarized below and relate 
to the gross reduction of GHG emissions:
(1)	 Develop and execute on sustainable 
climate-related strategy by 20251
The development and execution of a sustain-
able climate-related strategy by 2025 is critical 
to ensuring that we align our operations with 
global climate targets. By disclosing Scope 1, 
2, and 3 emissions in the 2023 annual report-
ing, Genmab has already laid the groundwork 
for transparency and accountability of our envi-
ronmental impact. Building on this foundation, 
in 2024, Genmab achieved the development of 
a comprehensive climate strategy, with a clear 
commitment to climate targets aligned with 
the Paris Agreement. Executing this strategy 
will involve taking tangible actions toward GHG 
emissions reductions, with partial progress on 
Scope 1 and 2 reductions expected by the end 
of 2025. By executing these steps, Genmab 
plans to not only meet regulatory expecta-
tions but also contribute to global efforts to 
combat climate change toward a sustainable 
future for both our operations and the planet.
1.	Executive Management received RSU grants in 2023 with performance linked to developing and executing on a sustainable climate-related strategy.
2.	Executive Management received RSU grants in 2024 with performance linked to Scope 1 and Scope 2 emission reductions by 42% by 2030 from a 2021 base year. The grant occurred prior to our base year update to 2024 due to significant 
changes in our structure and corresponding emissions (ProfoundBio acquisition in May 2024) and achievement will be assessed prior to base year update.
3.	Executive Management received RSU grants in 2024 with performance linked to supplier engagement ensuring two thirds of suppliers by spend committed to a Paris Agreement aligned climate target by 2030.
(2)	 Reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions 
by 42% through a reduction in Scope 2 
emissions by 2030 from a 2024 base year2
Genmab intends to achieve a 42% reduction 
in Scope 1 and Scope 2 (market-based) 
GHG emissions by 2030 compared to a 
2024 baseline year by sourcing renewable 
electricity at our facilities.
(3)	 Ensure 70% of suppliers by spend covering 
upstream purchases goods and services, 
capital goods and upstream transportation 
commit to have Science Based Targets 
(SBT) by 20303
Genmab intends to indirectly mitigate GHG 
emission impacts to the environment by 
2030 through supplier engagement and 
responsible sourcing practices by ensuring at 
least 70% of our largest suppliers by spend 
(operating expenses), covering upstream 
purchased goods and services, capital goods 
and upstream transportation, commit to have 
science-based targets by 2030.
(4)	 Reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 90% by 
2050 from a 2024 base year
Genmab intends to reduce Scope 1 and 2 
(market-based) GHG emissions by 90% by 
2050 from a 2024 base year to contribute 
to the obtainment of the ambitions laid out 
in the 2015 Paris Agreement by sourcing 
renewable electricity and switching to cleaner 
heating sources.
Refer to section GOV-3 for climate related targets related to Executive Management incentive 
compensation.
In 2022, Executive Management was granted RSUs linked to Genmab’s climate target to ensure 
100% renewable electricity was achieved across all major operating sites, which at the time 
of grants included our headquarters in Denmark and sites in the Netherlands, the U.S. and 
Japan. As of December 31, 2024, all major operating sites under the RSU grant achieved 100% 
renewable electricity.

Accounting Policies
Total energy consumption is accounted for by 
combining both renewable and non-renewable 
energy sources used across our operations. We 
measure energy consumption in megawatt-hours 
(MWh), incorporating data from energy manage-
ment systems and utility invoices to ensure 
accuracy. Renewable energy includes wind, solar, 
hydro and other sustainable sources which are 
supported by contractual agreements such as 
Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs), while non-­
renewable energy encompasses fossil fuels and 
grid electricity. This comprehensive approach 
allows us to monitor our overall energy usage 
effectively and conduct annual reviews of our 
consumption data to validate its completeness 
and reliability, ensuring compliance with relevant 
reporting standards and reinforcing our commit-
ment to sustainability.
Gross Scopes 1, 2, 3 and total GHG emissions (E1-6)
Genmab calculates its Scope 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions in accordance with the requirements of ESRS E1 Climate Change, considering the principles, require-

Scope 1 GHG Emissions
Scope 1 GHG emissions refer to the direct GHG 
emissions from sources that are financially 
or operationally (as required by ESRS 1) 
controlled by Genmab at our headquarters, 
office, laboratory and preclinical development 
space across all Genmab locations. Direct GHG 
emissions is comprised of the sum of greenhouse 
gases, which are converted to CO2 equivalents 
(CO2eq). The GHG emissions arise from the 
combustion of fuel products and leakage of 
refrigerants. To calculate GHG emissions the 
newest version of DEFRA GHG Conversion 
factors (2024) has been used.
Scope 2 GHG Emissions
Scope 2 GHG emissions refer to the indirect 
GHG emissions resulting from the generation 
of purchased energy that is used by Genmab 
at our headquarters, office, laboratory and 
preclinical development space across all Genmab 
locations. Scope 2 GHG emissions occur at the 
facility where the energy is generated, thus being 
classified as indirect GHG emissions. The GHG 
emissions are linked to the electricity and district 
heating consumption.
Scope 2 location-based GHG emissions are calcu-
lated by taking consumed energy multiplied with 
relevant location-based national emission factors 
provided by the International Energy Agency (IEA) 
(2023) and the Association of Issuing Bodies 
(AIB) (2023).
Scope 2 market-based emissions are calculated 
by taking consumed energy multiplied with 
market-specific emission factors provided directly 
from the energy supplier. Renewable energy 
purchases and certificates are considered, when 
accounting for indirect GHG emissions, using the 
market-based approach.
Scope 3 GHG Emissions
Genmab has identified six categories, out of the 
15 categories of Scope 3 GHG emissions defined 
by the GHG protocol, as relevant. The remaining 
nine categories are not separately reported on 
as they are either not applicable to Genmab or 
GHG emissions have been included in the other 
emission categories. Zero percent of Genmab’s 
Scope 3 GHG emissions are measured using 
primary data obtained from suppliers or other 
value chain partners. For spend-based calcula-
tions, all spend in foreign currencies has been 
converted into USD using the average exchange 
rate for the year.
Category 1 — Purchased goods and services
Purchased goods and services include GHG 
emissions related to all spend from external 
suppliers, except for investment (CapEx), travel, 
and transportation and distribution spend, 
which are included in other Scope 3 catego-
ries. Spend is converted into CO2eq emissions 
using the spend-based method by applying the 
Environmentally Extended Input-Output (EEIO) 
model with US EPA emission factors (2022) to 
estimate GHG emissions (CO2eq).
Category 2 — Capital goods
Capital goods include GHG emissions related to 
investments in tangible assets (CapEx). Spend is 
converted into CO2eq emissions using the spend-
based method by applying the Environmentally 
Extended Input-Output (EEIO) model with US 
EPA emission factors (2022) to estimate GHG 
emissions (CO2eq).
Category 3 — Fuel and energy-
related activities
Fuel and energy-related activities include all 
upstream Well-to-Tank (WTT) CO2eq emissions of 
purchased fuel and electricity and Transmission 
and Distribution (T&D) Loss of purchased 
electricity (beyond Scope 1 and 2 GHG 
emissions). Electricity and fuel consumption are 
multiplied by DEFRA’s emission factors (2023 
for fuel and 2021 for electricity) to estimate 
GHG emissions (CO2eq). The category primarily 
comprises upstream WTT and T&D emissions 
from electricity and WTT emissions from 
natural gas.
Category 4 — Upstream 
transportation and distribution
Upstream transportation and distribution 
include GHG emissions related to spend from 
external suppliers related to transportation 
and distribution of goods. Spend is converted 
into CO2eq emissions using the spend-based 
method by applying the Environmentally 
Extended Input-Output (EEIO) model with US 
EPA emission factors (2022) to estimate GHG 
emissions (CO2eq).
Category 6 — Business travel
Business travel includes GHG emissions related 
to spend from external suppliers related to 
flights, ground transportation, hotel stays 
and meals in connection with business travel. 
Spend is converted into CO2eq emissions using 
the spend-based method by applying the 
Environmentally Extended Input-Output (EEIO) 
model with US EPA emission factors (2022) to 
estimate GHG emissions (CO2eq).
Category 7 — Employee Commuting
Employee commuting includes GHG emissions 
related to employees’ commuting between their 
homes and the Genmab sites. GHG emissions are 
estimated using the average data method and 
based on assumptions across our locations.

EU Taxonomy
Disclosures pursuant to Article 8 
of Regulation (EU) 2020/852
The EU Taxonomy is a classification system 
designed to provide a framework for identi-
fying sustainable economic activities. It helps 
companies and investors distinguish between 
activities that contribute to environmental 
sustainability by establishing a common 
language for defining what constitutes “green” or 
sustainable business practices. The EU Taxonomy 
plays a role in supporting the transition towards a 
more sustainable economy.
In line with Article 8 of the EU Taxonomy and 
the Disclosure Delegated Act (EU) 2021/2178, 
Genmab is required to report on the sustainability 
profile of its activities, specifically focusing on 
the eligibility and alignment of its Turnover, 
Capital Expenditures (CapEx) and Operating 
Expenditures (OpEx).
Eligibility:
We screened our economic activities against 
those outlined in the Taxonomy, identifying 
eligible Turnover, CapEx and OpEx.
•	Turnover — We assessed turnover based on the 
net product sales of pharmaceutical products. 
We concluded that turnover from the sale of 
EPKINLY qualifies under the Manufacture of 
Medicinal Products (#1.2) activity, in line with 
the Taxonomy criteria for Pollution Prevention 
and Control (PPC). We did not include turnover 
from the sale of EPKINLY as eligible activities in 
2023 as EPKINLY launched in the U.S. in May 
2023 and Japan in September 2023.
•	CapEx — Our assessment focused on 
investments that align with Taxonomy-eligible 
activities. We identified one eligible project 
under Renovation of Buildings (#7.2) in line 
with the Taxonomy criteria for Climate Change 
Mitigation (CCM).
•	OpEx — We evaluated the eligibility of our OpEx 
by reviewing the eligible economic activities 
outlined in its Statement of Profit or Loss and 
examining the data available to us from our ERP 
system. Based on this evaluation, we did not 
identify eligible OpEx.
Alignment:
We assessed whether any of our Taxonomy-
eligible Turnover or CapEx for economic activities 
1.2 and 7.2 could be considered Taxonomy-
aligned; however, we were not able to obtain 
enough evidence to conclude alignment with the 
‘Substantial contribution’ and ‘Do No Significant 
Harm’ (DNSH) criteria.
Accounting Policies
Turnover:
Total Turnover consists of total revenue as 
disclosed in Note 2.1 in the consolidated 
financial statements. The Turnover KPI represents 
the ratio of net product sales from taxonomy-­
eligible or taxonomy-aligned economic activities 
to the total revenue in a fiscal year.
CapEx:
Total CapEx consists of additions to intangible 
assets, tangible assets and right-of-use assets 
during the fiscal year (refer to Notes 3.1, 3.2 and 
3.3, respectively) and considered before depre-
ciation, amortization, and any re-measurements, 
including those resulting from revaluations and 
impairments, for the relevant financial year, 
excluding any fair value changes. Furthermore, 
total CapEx consists of any additions to tangible 
and intangible assets resulting from business 
combinations. The CapEx KPI represents the 
share of CapEx that is taxonomy-eligible or 
­taxonomy-aligned divided by the total CapEx.
OpEx:
Total OpEx includes direct non-capitalized 
costs that relate to research and development, 
building renovation measures, short-term lease, 
maintenance and repair, and any other direct 
expenditures relating to the day-to-day servicing 
of assets of property, plant and equipment by 
the undertaking or third party to whom activities 
are outsourced that are necessary to ensure 
the continued and effective functioning of such 
assets. OpEx does not include amortization, 
depreciation, or impairments.
To avoid double counting related to the economic 
activities, Turnover, CapEx and OpEx are 
distinctly allocated to ensure that there is no 
overlap across these financial metrics.

Social — Own Workforce
Genmab is dedicated to making a meaningful impact in the 
lives of patients and caregivers by developing innovative 
treatments to transform cancer care and address other 
serious diseases. We prioritize understanding the needs of 
patients and their families, ensuring that their experiences 
and insights guide our research, development and 
commercialization efforts.
Our workforce is our greatest asset; the dedication and 
innovation of our team members are essential to our success. 
The Genmab Commitment, our employee value proposition, 
grounds our culture and brings our vision, purpose, and core 
values to life. Team members, or full-time equivalents (FTEs) 
at Genmab are defined as all employees on our payroll, both 
full-time and part-time, as well as active and on-leave. All 
individuals have been included by reflecting the proportion of 
an FTE they represent based on their contractual agreement. 
Non-employees at Genmab include contingent workers and 
consultants provided by third party undertakings who are 
primarily engaged in employment activities.
We prioritize attracting and retaining qualified individuals 
who align with our core mission of improving patient lives. 
Teamwork and respect are central to our culture, fostering 
an inclusive, open, and supportive environment across our 
global locations. We believe that workplace diversity — ​
encompassing social, educational, cultural, national, 
age, and gender differences — ​is crucial for our continued 
success. By recruiting employees with the right skills and 
competencies, we create interactive teams that drive our 
goals and ensure Genmab’s ongoing impact in healthcare, 
ultimately benefiting the patients and care partners we serve.

Employee well-being and vitality
Prioritizing employee well-being and vitality is 
not just a moral imperative but also a strategic 
investment in the success and sustainability 
of Genmab. It promotes a positive work envi-
ronment, improves employee morale and 
engagement, enhances productivity, reduces 
turnover, and helps maintain compliance with 
legal requirements. Therefore, prioritizing 
the health and safety of our teams demon-
strates our commitment to our most valuable 
asset — our people.
Promoting work-life balance is not just beneficial 
for employees, it also positively impacts Genmab 
by fostering a more productive, engaged, and 
satisfied workforce. It contributes to a positive 
organizational culture, supports recruitment and 
retention efforts, and ultimately enhances the 
overall performance and success of Genmab.
Genmab has a significant opportunity to enhance 
its workplace culture by providing a voice to our 
employees through ongoing initiatives aimed at 
improving employee engagement. By leveraging 
platforms such as our annual global engage-
ment survey, Genmab can foster an environment 
where employees feel valued, motivated, and 
committed to both their work and the organiza-
tion’s goals. This focus on engagement is likely 
to lead to improved talent retention and overall 
employee well-being.
With both local and global surveys conducted 
annually or biennially, Genmab gathers valuable 
insights into employee satisfaction, including 
both physical and mental workplace conditions. 
The results of these surveys provide a foun-
dation for actionable improvements, with the 
Human Resources team facilitating the process 
and Genmab leaders taking ownership of the 
outcomes. By actively addressing areas of 
concern highlighted in the surveys, Genmab can 
create a more supportive and responsive work 
environment, ultimately empowering employees 
to share their feedback, concerns, and ideas 
effectively.
Safety in our facilities
Safety in facilities at Genmab is essential not only 
for complying with legal requirements, but also 
for protecting employees, enhancing productivity, 
reducing costs, maintaining a positive reputation, 
and supporting overall business success and 
sustainability. It reflects Genmab’s commitment 
to the well-being of its employees and its 
responsibility as a corporate citizen within the 
broader community.
We have instituted mandatory safety training 
and ongoing education in all workplace areas, 
especially related to the proper handling of 
hazardous materials and chemicals in our labs to 
enhance productivity and reduce costs.
Career development through 
training and skill building
Employees with advanced skills contribute to 
higher productivity and efficiency, improving 
the overall performance of the organization. 
Organizations that invest in their employees’ 
development tend to have higher retention rates, 
as employees feel valued and are more likely to 
stay with Genmab. Companies known for their 
commitment to employee development attract 
top talent, as professionals seek employers who 
offer growth opportunities. A focus on continuous 
learning fosters a culture of growth and develop-
ment, enhancing teamwork, collaboration, and 
overall morale.
Genmab provides employees with opportunities 
to discuss their future career at Genmab which 
should increase employee retention, provide for 
the ability to attract top talent and achieve higher 
productivity and efficiency. This is done formally

through the year-end performance reviews, but 
also informally through ad hoc discussions with 
the manager, as needed. Employees are provided 
with several internal resources related to the 
performance process.
Diversity in the workplace
We strive to create, nurture, and maintain a 
global, inclusive culture where differences 
drive innovative solutions to meet the needs of 
patients, care partners, families, and employees. 
Our teams give Genmab its strength. We are 
committed to championing a corporate culture 
that accepts and promotes uniqueness and 
empowers each team member to bring their 
authentic self to work in a safe, open, and 
respectful environment. Our diversity, equity, 
and inclusion (“DE&I”) strategy aims to make 
Genmab an Extra[not]ordinary™ employer 
and inclusive workplace with DE&I efforts 
centered on gender, age and nationality. 
Genmab has team members representing 
over 75 nationalities.
Genmab also has several initiatives in place 
to connect employees across the company, 
including employee resource groups (ERGs), 
sharing individual and group experiences 
to create an inclusive and supporting work 
environment and to continuously improve 
employee engagement.

Workforce and S1-9 for diversity metrics

Own workforce IRO management
Policies related to own workforce (S1-1)
Genmab has a number of policies that address 
our material IROs for the topic of Working 
Conditions, and related to all of its own 
workforce, including the following:
•	Code of Conduct
•	Global Speak Up Policy
•	Human Rights Commitment
•	Global Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Policy
•	Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
•	Global Lab Occupational Health and 
Safety Policy
Genmab has other processes and systems 
in place including our Workplace Accident 
Prevention Management System and Employee 
Value Proposition.
Code of Conduct
The Code of Conduct policy aims to promote 
ethical and compliant conduct in all aspects of 
our business. Our Code of Conduct applies to 
everyone in our Company, at every level, including 
employees, managers, and board members. We 
expect our alliance partners and third parties, 
including agents, consultants, contingent workers, 
and suppliers, to act in a way that is consistent 
with our values and our Code of Conduct when 
conducting business on behalf of Genmab. As 
noted in the Code of Conduct, #11 — Genmab 
proactively seeks to foster a values-based 
performance culture and a safe and healthy 
workplace environment of mutual respect, dignity 
and inclusion, one that assures we can attract, 
develop and retain a highly talented, diverse 
workforce of engaged employees driven to deliver 
superior business outcomes. We are committed 
to equal opportunity and fair treatment of our 
employees. All forms of harassment and retalia-
tion are unacceptable and counter to everything 
we stand for as a Company.
The Code of Conduct can be mapped to the 
following positive impacts:
•	Employee well-being and vitality
•	Career development through training and 
skill building
Genmab’s Head of Global Compliance is respon-
sible for this policy and reports directly to the 
CEO, and both are members of the CSR and 
Sustainability Committee.
Refer to the Code of Conduct on our website.
Global Speak Up Policy
Enabling employees and external stakeholders 
to speak up when they observe potential miscon-
duct or have concerns about matters relating 
to our business is vital to retaining our strong 
Genmab culture and to doing the right thing. The 
Genmab Global Speak Up Policy allows for confi-
dential and (where allowed) anonymous reports 
that will be directed to Genmab Compliance for 
initial triage and handling. This approach renders 
the reporting process more accessible and easier 
to navigate. All reports made under this Policy 
will be received and treated sensitively and 
seriously, and will be dealt with promptly, fairly, 
and objectively. Any investigations commenced 
will be conducted in a timely manner and will be 
fair and independent from any persons to whom 
the report relates.
Importantly, our policy also extends protections 
not only to our regular employees, but also 
contingent staff, part-timers, temp staff, trainees, 
interns (both current and former) and others who 
choose to report their concerns.
All employees, in addition to the new hire 
onboarding training, are required to complete 
annual Code of Conduct training and attest 
to their commitment to adhere to our ethical 
standards. This training also reviews among other 
topics, the Global Speak Up Policy concepts.
The Global Speak Up Policy can be mapped to 
the positive impact of Employee well-being and 
vitality. Genmab’s Head of Global Compliance is 
responsible for this policy and reports directly to 
the CEO, and both are members of the CSR and 
Sustainability Committee.
Refer to the Global Speak Up Policy on 
our website.
Human Rights Commitment
We recognize and support human rights and are 
dedicated to conducting business in a way that 
respects the dignity of all people. Our Human 
Rights Commitment is guided by current human 
rights laws and the United Nations Guiding 
Principles on Business and Human Rights. Our 
Guiding Principles refer to the International 
Bill of Human Rights, which consists of the 
Universal Declaration of Human Rights and 
the two Covenants that implement it, as well 
as the International Labour Organization’s 
(ILO) Declaration on Fundamental Rights and 
Principles at Work and the core conventions that 
underpin it, and we are in alignment with these 
instruments. We are committed to respecting 
human rights, including labor rights in our own 
operations and complying with the laws of the

countries in which we do business. As part of 
our commitment, we seek to identify, prevent, 
and address any potential and actual adverse 
human rights impacts that our business may 
contribute to or cause. Further, as disclosed in 
our Human Rights Commitment, privacy rights of 
our employees, patients, healthcare providers, 
customers and other stakeholders are protected. 
Additionally, per the Human Rights Commitment 
policy we ensure fair, non-discriminatory 
employment practices and the prohibition of any 
form of human trafficking, forced, indentured, 
slave or child labor. We ensure that the policy is 
publicly available to all affected stakeholders by 
publishing it on our website.
In 2024, through periodic checks and audits, 
we continued to provide assurance that our 
policies, procedures, and operations align with 
our Human Rights Commitment. Our Supplier 
Code of Conduct addresses human rights and 
labor relations to ensure suppliers understand 
our commitment to compliance with local human 
and labor laws and recognize the importance 
we place on human rights. The Supplier Code 
of Conduct includes provisions in line with the 
applicable ILO standards addressing the safety 
of all workers including those in precarious work, 
human trafficking and the use of forced labour 
or child labour. The Global Speak Up Policy and 
Hotline covers the measures provided to enable 
remedy for human rights impacts.
The Human Rights Commitment policy can be 
mapped to the positive impact of Employee 
well-being and vitality. Under the leadership of 
our Chief People Officer, our Human Resources 
function is responsible for ensuring our compli-
ance with this Commitment.
Refer to the Human Rights Commitment on our 
website. Refer also to the Corporate Global 
Supplier Code of Conduct Policy on our website.
Global Diversity, Equity 
& Inclusion Policy
At Genmab, prioritizing DE&I means creating 
richer solutions, obtaining better results, and 
maximizing productivity, innovation, and 
creativity. Diversity allows for a variety of 
perspectives, and inclusion takes different 
ideas and perspectives into account, while 
equity ensures fair opportunities to succeed. We 
embrace each employee’s unique contribution to 
our culture by valuing differences including age, 
disabilities, gender, Genmab heritage, nation-
ality, professional specialization race/ethnicity, 
problem-solving style, sexual orientation, and 
social class. Genmab’s Global Diversity, Equity 
& Inclusion Policy covers inclusion for groups 
that may be at particular risk of vulnerability 
including all employees, regardless of gender, 
race, ethnicity, religion, age, disability, and other 
characteristics.
By ensuring equal treatment and opportunity, 
Genmab has a positive impact on people in 
its workforce and value chain. Diversity in the 
workplace and harboring a safe workplace for 
all leads to innovation, creating the opportunity 
for Genmab to gather multiple perspectives into 
one place. Similarly, a lack of diversity can impact 
company performance negatively and hinder 
innovative solutions to support patients.
With regards to our people and measures against 
violence and harassment in the workplace, 
as noted in our Code of Conduct, all forms of 
harassment and retaliation are unacceptable and 
counter to everything we stand for as a Company.
The Global Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Policy 
(most recently adopted by the Board of Directors 
on June 12, 2024) can be mapped to the positive 
impact of Diversity in the workplace. The DE&I 
Council (made up of senior leaders at Genmab) 
is responsible for ensuring our compliance with 
this policy.
Refer to the Global Diversity, Equity & Inclusion 
Policy on our website.
Corporate Social Responsibility 
(CSR) Policy
As noted in the CSR Policy under No. #2, we care 
for our employees’ health, well-being, safety, and 
development and promote a collaborative culture 
that fosters passion for innovation, integrity, and 
respect. We believe that diversity, equity, and 
inclusion are fundamental to achieving our vision 
and are committed to championing a corporate 
culture that accepts and promotes uniqueness 
and empowers each team member to bring 
their authentic self to work in a safe, open, and 
respectful environment.
The CSR Policy is mapped to the positive impact 
of Career development through training and 
skill building. The Nominating and Corporate 
Governance Committee of Genmab A/S’ Board 
of Directors oversees all aspects of Genmab’s 
CSR efforts.
Refer to the Corporate Social Responsibility 
(CSR) Policy on our website.
Global Lab Occupational 
Health and Safety Policy
Genmab has an internal Global Lab Occupational 
Health and Safety Policy specific to our R&D labs 
across our locations. Formal committees respon-
sible for monitoring and improving health and 
safety at each of our locations continued their 
work. Each committee reports to site operations 
and to the local management team to address 
and escalate any issues. Health and safety 
prevention workers continue to monitor and 
improve health and safety at our R&D labs. This 
policy is mapped to the positive impact of Safety 
in our facilities. Under the leadership of our Chief 
Medical Officer, our committees are responsible 
for ensuring our compliance with the policy.
Workplace Accident Prevention 
Management System
Genmab adheres to processes, assessments, 
inspections, and staff trainings and has reporting 
in place to prevent, monitor and manage 
any workplace accidents. We aim to create a 
workplace accident prevention policy over the 
coming years. Mandatory workplace assessments 
are conducted in compliance with local regula-
tions. This strategy is mapped to the positive 
impact of Safety in our facilities. Under the lead-
ership of our Chief People Officer, our Human 
Resources function is responsible for ensuring 
our compliance with this Commitment.
Employee Value Proposition
Genmab has developed the Genmab Commitment, 
which is our employee value proposition that is 
published internally and the essence of it is used 
across in our internal and external communica-
tions and social media platforms.

Management’s Review

Sustainability Statements
The Commitment is what grounds our culture 
in the day-to-day work and brings our vision, 
purpose, and core values to life.
Our Commitment is made up of four key ingre-
dients that illustrate how “We are extra[not]
ordinary™”:
•	Empowerment
•	Care
•	Authenticity
•	Impact
These principles capture the culture we aspire 
to — engaging our team members to go beyond 
business as usual and to be remarkable, 
unique, and authentic. We offer an extra[not] 
ordinary rewards and opportunities package 
that empowers team members to succeed and 
enhances their well-being.
Processes for engaging with own 
workers and workers’ representatives 
about impacts (S1-2)
Genmab promotes an environment that fosters 
individual empowerment that allows team 
members to achieve their maximum potential. 
Genmab encourages active dialogue directly 
between employees and management. Genmab 
drives initiatives that engage, develop, and 
inspire employees as a part of our overall Total 
Rewards strategy.
Genmab facilitates active dialogue between our 
team members and management on workplace 
issues and other topics of concern through HR 
business partners, Employee Representative 
Council and Works Council.
•	Danish Employee Representative Council 
presents topics of interest and concern to 
employees during the year (at least once a 
year) through meetings to enable us to gain 
insight into the perspectives of our workforce 
and to ensure we remain a preferred workplace. 
Team members in Denmark have furthermore 
exercised their right to elect representatives 
to the Board of Directors in accordance with 
Danish legislation, and three group employees 
were elected to the Board under a voluntary 
scheme allowing employees from other sites 
to be elected. This employee representation 
strengthens the involvement and decision-
making process at Genmab.
•	Dutch Works Council is a statutory body with 
the legal right and obligation to monitor and 
work for the proper functioning of the Company 
in all its objectives. This advocacy group 
represents team members in the Netherlands 
to bring concerns from the workforce to 
management during the year (at least once a 
year). Under the Dutch Works Councils Act, our 
Council must consent on topics that directly 
affect employees’ everyday work and must be 
involved in, and consulted for, advice on major 
organizational changes and determine the 
impact on the local workforce.
While the U.S., Japan and China do not have Work 
Councils, employee engagement occurs globally 
for all employees through surveys and workplace 
assessments including our annual global engage-
ment survey, inclusion networks, personal 
development dialogues, employee-elected board 
positions, employment relations and occupa-
tional health and safety representation.
A Global Employee Engagement Survey is 
conducted on an annual basis. The results of the 
survey help us keep a pulse on Genmab’s areas 
of strength and opportunity. Focus groups are 
conducted to generate further insights on critical 
engagement issues. The organization shares 
results with all team members and encourages 
all people leaders to review feedback with 
their teams and develop actions to improve 
the overall employee experience. In addition, 
Executive Management reviews results as a 
group to analyze key findings, themes, reflect 
on areas of strengths and opportunities for 
employee engagement.
To inform teams on our business and our 
progress, Genmab hosts functional and/or 
regional town hall updates.
Under the leadership of our Chief People Officer, 
our Human Resources function is responsible for 
ensuring engagement with our own workers and 
workers’ representatives.
Refer to SBM-2 for summary table of key 
stakeholder engagement.
Processes to remediate negative 
impacts and channels for own 
workers to raise concerns (S1-3)
While we have not identified any material 
negative impacts regarding our team members, 
we do promote and encourage our people to 
speak up to report concerns, share feedback, 
address compliance issues, and express ethical 
dilemmas to promoting transparency and foster a 
culture of openness and accountability by raising 
awareness of potential risks or challenges that 
could affect the organization.
Employees can raise concerns through their 
immediate managers or a Human Resource 
colleague, who will track and monitor such 
concerns, and raise the issue as needed to the 
appropriate management to resolve it.
Employees can also raise concerns through 
our 24/7 full-service Speak Up (whistleblower) 
compliance hotline.

Genmab’s well-being pillars were implemented in 
2024 which include:
•	Emotional well-being: thrive every day
Supporting resilience and mental health 
through manager training and tools
•	Financial well-being: enjoy security 
and freedom
Promoting financial security with initiatives like 
Global Money Week
•	Physical well-being: feel your best
Offering on-site and virtual fitness 
opportunities
•	Social well-being: live connected
Facilitating volunteer opportunities to connect 
employees with the community
Programs
Global Well-Being: In 2023, we created a 
strategic roadmap to help establish an effective 
Global Well-Being (GWB) Program to support our 
team members. Our roadmap was developed 
based on feedback from key stakeholders and 
the insights of well-being experts who use 
research-based best practices to design and 
implement a custom GWB program for our organi-
zation. The program that Genmab offered in 2024 
and 2023 included the following workshops:
•	Care for you as the caregiver
•	Leading with love — celebrating and affirming 
LGBTQ+ young people
•	Creating financial well-being plan
•	Design your work/life webinar
•	International self-care day article posted on 
Everyday intranet
Emotional and Mental Health: Genmab offered 
multiple programs, including self-care applica-
tions, in 2024 and 2023 and resources at each 
location to support emotional and mental health 
needs. A weeklong series on Well-being for 
employees that provided resources for managers 
to leverage in support of their employees’ 
mental health in 2024 and 2023 included the 
following workshops:
•	Resilience: protecting your mental health in 
stressful times
•	How to maximize your day
•	Stress busting: run from the bear
•	The importance of unplugging
•	Boundaries before burnout
Volunteering
Genmab organizes events throughout the year to 
connect with each other and our communities. 
In 2024, 688 team members volunteered 2,952 
hours on Global Volunteer Day compared to 571 
team members and 2,668 hours in 2023.
Self-Care Applications
In 2023, we launched our own mental health 
application, GenCare, which is used by our team 
members globally. The app uses several learning 
approaches and preferences to support neurodi-
versity. GenCare evolved in 2024 with updated 
content and a focus on improved well-being.
Work-life Balance
Genmab continued to provide four additional 
days off and four meeting-free days throughout 
the year in both 2024 and 2023. Genmab 
recognizes the importance of time away from 
work and offers all employees paid time off, as 
well as leave of absence policies, to support 
our teams members through extended periods 
away from work on a paid and/or unpaid basis. 
Genmab offers family-related leave to all full-time 
employees across all our Genmab entities 
following statutory provisions as stated by the 
relevant local jurisdiction.
Total Rewards & Opportunities
As Genmab continues to grow, we’ve been 
enhancing systems to support transparency, 
understanding, and empowerment regarding 
employees’ Total Rewards & Opportunities 
which includes all of the tangible and intangible 
elements available to employees in return for 
helping Genmab fulfill our purpose and live 
our values.
In 2024, we introduced a new feature in our 
Human Resources Information System (HRIS) 
providing more information about employee 
salary and growth potential. Employees have 
the ability to view salary ranges and market 
ratios for comparable roles in the Biotech/Life 
Sciences industry. These ranges were created 
following consultation and alignment with leaders 
throughout Genmab to ensure that the market 
data leveraged was the most appropriate for 
the skills and responsibilities our employees 
possess. As a result, this exercise exemplifies 
our rigorous, data-driven processes to ensure 
our salaries are internally consistent as well as 
externally attractive — for both new hires and 
current employees.
Genmab also awards new hires with equity grants 
in the form of warrants and restricted stock units, 
allowing our team members the opportunity to 
become part owners in Genmab.
Lastly, Genmab offers a variety of market 
competitive benefits to our employees including 
physical, social, professional, emotional and 
financial well-being.
Refer to Note 4.6 in the consolidated financial 
statements for details related to grants of 
share-based instruments in 2024 and 2023.
Safety in Our Facilities
Our Safe & Sound and Sustainability Week recog-
nizes the successes of workplace health and 
safety programs and provides information on 
how to keep our lab workers safe while bringing 
awareness to our sustainability footprint.
As part of the program for the weeks in 2024 
and 2023, we highlighted important lab safety 
topics specifically for the laboratories in the 
Netherlands and the U.S. This included CPR 
certification to equip our team members with 
life-saving skills, eyewash demonstrations, 
management of expired/unused chemicals, fire 
extinguisher training and biosafety. We also cele-
brated our team members’ efforts in identifying 
and reporting potential hazards.
We have instituted mandatory safety training 
and ongoing education in all workplace areas, 
especially related to the proper handling of 
hazardous materials and chemicals in our labs. 
We are fully aware of the impact that chemicals 
can have on employee and patient health and 
safety. We are committed to ensuring that our 
chemical management practices comply with 
all relevant regulations and standards, and 
that we minimize the potential for harm to our 
workers, customers, and the environment. Risk 
assessments of chemicals used by Genmab in 
its operations indicate that many pose low or no 
hazard. However, we constantly monitor the use

of chemicals with high risk factors, such as being 
corrosive, reactive, mutagenic or carcinogenic, 
and are constantly promoting investigation into 
their potential replacement or process enhance-

Training and Skill Building
Global Employee Engagement Survey
As standard practice, Genmab reviews the survey 
results with the Executive Committee to reflect on 
employee feedback, current engagement strategy 
and understand future actions that could support 
the employee experience. It is also encouraged 
for people leaders to review survey results 
directly with their employees to discuss the 
feedback and establish any actions to improve 
the employee experience. Lastly, Genmab trans-
parently displays survey results with the broader 
employee population by publishing them on the 
Company’s internal secured network.
In 2024 and 2023, Genmab conducted the 
survey with areas of focus including: diversity 
and inclusion, immediate manager, work environ-
ment, innovation, engagement, camaraderie & 
teamwork, thriving, communication effectiveness, 
work-life balance, career development, senior 
leadership, performance management and orga-
nization effectiveness. Team members scored 
Genmab on these areas of focus which helps us 
keep a pulse on areas of concern. 
The engagement score, which measures favor-
ability, is influenced by certain questions 
specifically designed to measure overall 
employee engagement on a five point rating 
scale. In 2024, we achieved a 79% engage-
ment score and a 90% global participation rate 
compared to an 83% engagement score and 
an 88% global participation rate in 2023. Our 
results in 2024 and 2023 exceeded life sciences 
industry benchmarks of 78% engagement score 
and 80% participation rate.
Refer to S1-5 for targets related to the global 
employee engagement survey.
Learning & Development
In 2024, Genmab created multiple skills-based 
learning paths for team members focusing on 
specific skill development with focus areas 
including digital and AI, feedback, strategic 
planning, advance excel skills, leading different 
generations, informal leadership, and business 
communications.
In 2023, Genmab focused its efforts to continue 
building our learning culture, including curation 
and development of new virtual learning content 
through our GenSpire platform, as well as initi-
ating custom, targeted learning programs. We 
continued to implement our cloud-based learning 
management system, together with an e-learning 
library of courses to help team members develop 
their skills while working remotely.
AI in learning
In 2024, Genmab focused on the usage of AI in 
learning to increase usability, course suggestions, 
and our collaboration with our learning providers.
Global Mentorship Program
In 2024, Genmab launched a Global Mentor 
Program, to ensure an inclusive and supporting 
environment. This new mentor program can 
impact the sense of belonging, as employees 
connect with other colleagues outside their area 
of expertise as well as connecting with leaders 
that can provide insights and feedback that is not 
linked to any performance plan. The feedback can 
be used to develop skills and traits important to 
that specific individual.
Diversity in the Workplace
Employee Satisfaction
We achieved an overall satisfaction score of 88% 
or greater on Diversity and Inclusion in the Global 
Employee Engagement Survey in 2024 and 2023.
DE&I Council
Our DE&I Council guides the alignment of our 
DE&I strategy with our overall business strategy. 
The Council includes representation of senior 
leaders, DE&I team, Internal Communication, and 
presidents of our ERGs, and meets to discuss 
cultural activities, employee feedback and future 
DE&I needs.
DE&I Trainings
Our DE&I team updates Genmab DE&I training 
each year to respond to the growth and diversity 
in Genmab as well as the geopolitical situation in 
the global environment. We conducted multiple 
trainings in 2024 and 2023. The trainings offered 
were a combination of culture Workshops, culture 
masterclasses and DE&I workshops with basic 
concepts and definitions.
Employee Resource Groups (ERGs)
Genmab currently has six (6) Employee Resource 
Groups (ERGs). ERGs are employee led, self-­
directed voluntary groups that enhance culture 
and aim to bring better business outcomes 
through leveraging diversity and inclusion by 
offering opportunities to network internally, 
attracting a diverse employee base, providing 
the inclusion of ideas and solutions, and creating 
opportunities for career development. ERGs are 
overseen by the DE&I team, under the Human 
Resource function. All ERGs are open to all 
employees of Genmab.
Talent Acquisition and Fair & 
Equal Hiring Practices
In 2024, we attended two (2) diversity career 
fairs. In 2023, our Talent Acquisition team, 
including 100% of our recruiters, received 
additional implicit bias training on eliminating 
bias in the hiring process. In partnership with 
the National Black MBA Association, Inc and 
Disability IN, in the U.S., as well as Women in 
Tech in Brussels, we continued outreach and 
relationship building in historically underserved 
communities to better understand their needs 
and identify ways to support local prosperity 
and the development of potential talent for our 
Company. We plan to continue to participate in 
three to four diversity career fairs annually, with 
the focus on expanding the talent pipeline and 
ensuring that diverse talent has access to apply 
for vacant positions.
Compliance with the Dutch Participation Act
We employ three individuals with disabilities who 
were trained, mentored, and coached on the job 
to support this law that aims to help everyone 
find work in the Netherlands, including people 
with disabilities.
Refer to S1-5 for targets linked to diversity.

Targets related to Employee 
well-being and vitality
Genmab continues to promote an environment 
that fosters individual empowerment that allows 
team members to achieve their maximum 
potential, and drive initiatives that engage, 
develop and inspire employees as a part of 
our overall Total Rewards strategy. Specific 
target identified by the HR function related to 
promoting employee well-being and vitality is 
indicated below:
•	Meet or exceed the global benchmark 
for (1) employee engagement score and 
(2) participation rate for the Global Employee 
Engagement Survey in 2025 (annual target)1
The target is measured annually after the 
administration of the Global Employee 
Engagement Survey. Genmab will compare 
the engagement score, which measures the 
favorability rate, and the participation rate for 
the Company’s engagement in comparison to 
the life sciences industry average. Focusing on 
top-down governance, the survey results are 
reviewed with the Executive Committee. During 
the discussion, the team will reflect on any 
actions needed to maintain or improve overall 
employee engagement.
Refer to S1-4 which shows how Genmab’s 
Global Employee Engagement Survey results 
in 2024 and 2023 outpaced life sciences 
industry benchmarks.
1.	Executive Management received RSU grants in 2022, 2023 and 2024 with performance linked to sustaining at or better than the global benchmark for employee engagement.
2.	Executive Management received RSU grants in 2022, 2023 and 2024 with performance linked to gender diversity balance targets in director and above level roles. The range of payout varies based on gender splits (see GOV-3).
Targets related to Career development 
through training & skill building
The Genmab Learning & Development (L&D) team 
within the Global Talent Management strives to 
be data centric. The L&D team measures learning 
completion records for required learning, optional 
learning, and self-assigned learning. Aside from 
completion measures the team also measures 
the communication channels effectiveness. 
Specifically, L&D has set annual required career 
development, training & skill building targets 
as follows:
•	100% of eligible employees are 
provided access to Genmab’s end of year 
performance process
The Global Talent Management team at 
Genmab will ensure that all eligible employees 
are provided full access to the year-end 
performance process at Genmab, including 
providing internal resources and early 
engagement to the employees. This is set as an 
annual target for 2025.
•	100% of employees are provided access to 
training programs that meet the development 
needs across various career stages and 
learnings styles
The Global Talent Management team at Genmab 
will ensure that professional development skills 
trainings are offered to all employees. This is set 
as an annual target for 2025.
•	Launch sustainability awareness training 
by 2025
The Corporate Sustainability Team at Genmab 
plans to launch sustainability awareness 
training for team members in 2025.
Targets related to Diversity 
in the Workplace
Diversity targets are determined by the DE&I 
Council (made up of senior executives) and 
adopted by the Board of Directors. They are 
as follows:
(1)	Maintain between 40% to 60% gender 
representation at a director level and above2
The Board of Directors has committed to 
maintaining an annual target of balanced 
gender representation, at a director level and 
above level positions by 2025. In order to 
provide equal employment and advancement 
opportunities to all individuals, employment 
decisions at Genmab are based on merit. The 
Company is committed to equal opportunity 
in the conduct of all our business activities. 
Genmab does not discriminate on the basis 
of race, color, creed, religion, gender, national 
origin, age, marital status, disability, sexual 
orientation, gender identity or expression, 
status with regard to public assistance or 
any other classification protected by appli-
cable law.
As of December 31, 2024, the gender split 
in director level and above was 52% female 
and 48% male as disclosed in the table in 
section S1-9.
(2)	Target between 40% to 60% gender repre-
sentation by 2025 in the Other Management 
Levels at Genmab A/S only in accordance 
with the guidelines from the Danish 
Business Authority
As of December 31, 2024, the gender split 
in the Other Management Levels, as defined 
in the Danish Companies Act, was 33% 
female managers (six persons) and 67% 
male managers (12 persons) for Genmab A/S 
(Danish Parent only). As we do not currently 
have an equal share of men and women in 
the Other Management Levels at Genmab 
A/S as defined by the Danish Companies Act, 
the Board of Directors has committed to a 
target ratio of 40% to 60% for female and 
male splits in the Other Management Levels 
of Genmab A/S by 2025, or the target that 
comes closest to this target and which still 
constitutes an equal gender composition 
in accordance with the guidelines from the 
Danish Business Authority.
To pursue the fulfillment of the set target 
and to continue working towards and main-
taining diversity and equal opportunities for 
employees at all management levels in the 
Genmab Group, we have implemented several 
initiatives related to, among other things, 
recruitment, employment terms and talent 
development. We also offer participation in 
internal network groups and focus on raising 
awareness of bias throughout the organiza-
tion by conducting regular internal training.
Taking into account these initiatives and 
the existing composition of the Other 
Management Levels of Genmab A/S, the 
target is expected to be met by 2025.

*2024 is a baseline year for female/male headcount and FTE reporting. Splits were not previously disclosed in prior year 
Annual Reports.
As of December 31, 2024, the total number of FTEs was 2,682 compared to 2,204 as of December 31, 
2023. The increase was primarily driven by the expansion and acceleration of our pipeline, as well as 
the investment in the expansion of Genmab’s commercialization capabilities, including support for 
EPKINLY in the U.S. and Japan post launch activities, and broader organizational capabilities and the 
acquisition of ProfoundBio.

Gender pay gap
Genmab calculates the gender pay gap for 
employees as the difference of average pay 
levels (gross hourly pay) between female and 
male employees, expressed as percentage 
of the average pay level of male employees. 
The calculation relies on a single variable 
(gender) and excludes other factors that would 
typically be included in a pay analysis, such as 
job level, amount of experience, performance 
rating, education level, typical market pay for a 
position, etc.
CEO pay ratio
Genmab calculates the CEO pay ratio for 
employees as the annual total remuneration 
ratio of the highest paid individual (our CEO) 
to the median annual total remuneration for all 
employees (excluding our CEO). Remuneration 
includes base salary, defined contribution plans, 
other benefits, annual cash bonus and share-
based compensation. Refer to Note 5.1 in the 
consolidated financial statements for details of 
CEO pay for 2024.
Incidents, complaints and severe 
human rights impacts (S1-17)
During 2024, there were no work-related 
incidents of discrimination, including harassment, 
substantiated. No cases of severe human rights 
incidents (e.g., forced labor, human trafficking, or 
child labor) were identified during 2024.

We strive to enroll patients who will benefit

to extensive legislative, regulatory and other 
requirements which pose a risk to Genmab; 
however, Genmab is committed to ensuring equal 
access to Genmab clinical trials. We have DE&I 
initiatives to ensure we enroll diverse patients 
who represent the communities we serve.
Market access programs to allow for 
product availability for uninsured 
or underinsured (positive)
MyNavCare Patient Support is designed to 
provide comprehensive resources and support 
to help patients access EPKINLY (epcoritam-
ab-bysp) throughout their treatment journey. 
Recognizing the challenges faced by uninsured 
or underinsured patients, Genmab has created a 
robust program through MyNavCare to provide 
financial assistance and free medicine for eligible 
patients struggling to afford their prescribed 
treatments. Without effective market access 
programs, Genmab could lose market share from 
competition.
Assisting those having difficulty affording 
Genmab products prescribed to them is an iden-
tified opportunity for Genmab and can lead to 
market growth in a competitive pharmaceutical 
landscape. Through MyNavCare, Genmab assists 
eligible patients with coverage for co-pays, 
co-insurance, and deductibles, helping to ensure 
that financial challenges do not become barriers 
to accessing life-changing therapies. This initia-
tive reflects Genmab’s commitment to reducing 
disparities in healthcare access and empowering 
patients to focus on their treatment journey.
Patient engagement programs 
developed (positive)
Genmab is elevating the voices of patients and 
care partners by incorporating their perspectives 
into all aspects of our work — from early-stage 
R&D to clinical trials and commercialization. 
These insights are vital to our ability to innovate 
and to support people impacted by our medicines 
as they navigate the complex aspects of a 
serious illness. Without our patient engagement 
programs, there is risk of increased competi-
tion and decreased overall patient experience. 
Genmab engages with patients and caregivers to 
gather insights and improve patient outcomes.
The goal of these programs is to effectively and 
efficiently bring medicines to patients that incor-
porate the patient voice across the continuum of 
clinical development, including ensuring clinical 
protocols and informed consents have the patient 
insights required to attract and retain patients in 
the trials while meeting regulatory requirements.
Clinical trial transparency (positive)
As there is risk associated with transparency in 
our business, increased transparency in clinical 
trials is a key factor for advancing medical 
research and improving patient outcomes. As 
Genmab develops antibody therapeutics for 
cancer treatment and other serious diseases, 
increased transparency can have the following 
material impacts:
•	Help patients find trials that match their 
eligibility criteria and preferences, increasing 
the recruitment and retention rates of 
participants.
•	Empower patients to make informed decisions 
about their health, enhancing their trust 
and satisfaction with the trial process and 
the Company.

state-of-the-art monitoring systems, stringent 
processes, and industry best practices. Our 
comprehensive safety program is designed 
to identify and mitigate potential risks asso-
ciated with our products, and to ensure that 
our products are safe and effective for their 
intended use.
We work closely with regulatory agencies to 
ensure that our products meet all safety and 
efficacy standards. We also collaborate with 
healthcare providers and patient advocacy 
groups to ensure that patients have access to 
the information they need to make informed 
decisions about their treatment. Under the lead-
ership of our Chief Development Officer, our 
functions are responsible for ensuring compli-
ance with Commitment to Quality.
Refer to the Commitment to Quality on 
our website.
Clinical Trial Transparency
Genmab is committed to transparency of clinical 
trial research. We recognize the scientific and 
ethical value of sharing clinical trial information 
in a non-biased and timely manner to benefit 
diverse audiences. Transparency in clinical trials 
helps patients and healthcare providers to make 
well-informed decisions about patients’ health. 
Transparency is also about building and main-
taining public trust in clinical research. We are 
committed to sharing clinical trial information 
and results in a language understandable also for 
non-scientists, as part of our ongoing transpar-
ency efforts.
Our commitments apply to all Genmab-sponsored 
interventional clinical trials, Phase 1 and beyond, 
conducted worldwide. To the extent applicable, 
our commitments also apply to Genmab-
sponsored non-interventional clinical studies 
and expanded access programs. The most senior 
level in Genmab that is accountable for the policy 
is the Chief Development Officer.
The Genmab Clinical Trial Transparency 
Declaration can be mapped to the positive impact 
of Clinical trial transparency and is publicly 
available via the website. The Declaration is also 
referenced in the onboarding program of new 
Development Operations employees.
Refer to the Clinical Trial Transparency 
Declaration on our website.

Code of Conduct
Within Genmab’s Code of Conduct, there is a 
section (#5) specifically on Clinical Trials, which is 
publicly available via Genmab’s website.
Our research and clinical trials are always guided 
by Our Purpose: to improve the lives of patients 
through innovative and differentiated antibody 
therapeutics. We are committed to conducting our 
research, development, and related data collec-
tion with scientific integrity and disclosing results 
in a timely manner.
Genmab’s Code of Conduct also describes 
our 20 ethical standards and covers respon-
sible marketing practices. We at Genmab are 
committed to conducting all aspects of our 
business with integrity, and in an ethical, honest, 
and transparent manner. These standards 
and our associated corporate policies provide 
further guidance for our people with respect 
to this commitment. Genmab’s Head of Global 
Compliance is responsible for this policy 
and reports directly to the CEO, and both 
are members of the CSR and Sustainability 
Committee. The Code of Conduct can be mapped 
to our positive impact of Access and integrity in 
clinical trials.
Refer to the Code of Conduct on our website.
Commitment to Patients
Across Genmab, our talented and dedicated team 
works every day to improve the lives of patients 
through innovative and differentiated antibody 
therapeutics. Genmab’s Commitment to Patients 
describes how our work is guided by doing what’s 
best for patients. Through our Patient Advisory 
Council, patients contribute their insights ranging 
from how we design and conduct our clinical 
trials to how we may help to educate and support 
patients who have been prescribed our products. 
We are focused on understanding the many indi-
viduals who may support a patient throughout 
their disease experience and tailoring resources 
to the needs of these care partners to better 
facilitate their role in the care journey. Our goal is 
to conduct clinical research that reflects the real-
world demographics of the diseases we study, 
and we strive to ensure our trials are patient 
centric and accessible for patients of all back-
grounds to participate. We aim to ensure that all 
patients who are prescribed our medicines have 
timely access to them. We work with stakeholders 
across the healthcare system and have patient 
support services (PSS) in place to address patient 
access to our medications once prescribed. We 
aim to facilitate transparency in our work and 
interactions.
The Commitment to Patients can be mapped to 
the positive impacts of patient engagement and 
market access programs developed to allow for 
product availability for uninsured or underin-
sured. The Senior Vice President Communications 
and Corporate Affairs is responsible for the policy 
and reports directly to CEO.
Refer to the Commitment to Patients on 
our website.
Global Compliance Policy
Genmab has an internal Global Compliance 
Policy and playbook. The Global Compliance 
Policy covers interactions and engagements 
with healthcare professionals, healthcare 
organizations, patients, patient association 
groups and government officials (stakeholders). 
Genmab’s Head of Global Compliance is respon-
sible for this policy and reports directly to the 
CEO, and both are members of the CSR and 
Sustainability Committee.
Processes for engaging with consumers 
and end-users about impacts (S4-2)
Genmab’s engagement with consumers and 
end-users is a multi-faceted strategy that prior-
itizes patient safety, ethical marketing, and 
transparent communication.
Patient Engagement Programs
Genmab’s mission to improve the lives of patients 
with cancer and serious diseases is realized 
through its commitment to patient engagement 
programs. These efforts include clinical trials, 
advocacy initiatives, and also through tailored 
support programs like MyNavCare Patient 
Support™, which provides, with respect to 
Genmab products approved in the U.S., person-
alized assistance for patients and their care 
partners, as well as support for HCPs for the 
ultimate benefit of patients.
The MyNavCare Patient Support™ program offers 
comprehensive support, including insurance 
navigation, and financial support, designed 
to facilitate access to therapies for all eligible 
patients. The program supports, among others, 
those who are uninsured or underinsured, 
ensuring equitable access to treatment while alle-
viating the burdens associated with navigating 
complex healthcare systems. When someone 
has enrolled in the MyNavCare program, which 
is optional, they can call and engage with 
MyNavCare team members to discuss any 
questions or issues they have.
Genmab values patient input and actively 
involves patients in its decision-making 
processes through initiatives like the Patient 
Advisory Council. This council enables patients 
to share their experiences and insights, influ-
encing how clinical trials are designed and how 
medicines are delivered. By listening to patient 
feedback, Genmab can better understand their 
needs and concerns, ultimately enhancing both 
the science behind its therapies and the support 
services offered, thereby contributing to the 
decision-making processes ranging from how we 
design and conduct our clinical trials to the way 
we deliver our medicines.
Engagement occurs on a regular basis, from early 
development through commercial. The Senior 
Vice President Communications and Corporate 
Affairs is responsible for ensuring this engage-
ment and reports directly to CEO.
Clinical Trial Transparency
Transparency in clinical trials is another key focus 
for Genmab. Genmab engages on a regular basis 
with patient advocacy groups and healthcare 
professionals to ensure that the perspectives 
of consumers and end-users are integrated into 
trial design and execution. Genmab publishes 
its Clinical Trial Transparency Declaration on its 
website, keeping patients and other stakeholders 
informed about trial processes and expectations. 
The Development Operations team, organized 
under the Chief Development Officer, oversees 
this engagement, and ensures the effective 
planning, execution, and public disclosure of 
clinical trials.

Safety and Compliance
The Global Drug Safety team plays a crucial 
role in ensuring that Genmab’s products meet 
stringent safety and efficacy standards. They 
work closely with regulatory agencies to maintain 
compliance but do not engage directly with 
patients. This team’s efforts are complemented 
by a comprehensive safety monitoring program 
designed to identify and mitigate potential risks 
associated with Genmab’s therapies. Trust in the 
safety and quality of these products is essential, 
as any breach of trust can adversely affect the 
Company’s reputation and core business. Under 
the leadership of our Chief Development Officer, 
our internal functions are responsible for ensuring 
safety and compliance.
Ethical Marketing Practices
Genmab emphasizes responsible marketing 
practices in all interactions with healthcare 
providers and stakeholders. Genmab has estab-
lished a Code of Conduct that sets high ethical 
standards for employees, reinforced through 
regular training. This ensures that all marketing 
and sales efforts align with local and national 
regulations, which may limit direct engagement 
with consumers and end-users. Ethical marketing 
practices are the responsibility of our Chief 
Commercial Officer.
Processes to remediate negative 
impacts and channels for consumers 
and end-users to raise concerns (S4-3)
While we have not identified any material 
negative impacts regarding our consumers and 
end-users, we do promote and encourage our 
consumers and end-users to speak up to report 
concerns, share feedback, address compli-
ance issues, and enable remedy for human 
rights impacts. We believe our consumers and 
end-users trust the channels described in this 
section as we receive questions and requests 
from these channels.
Clinical Trials
Consumers and end-users can raise questions 
or concerns via Genmab’s publicly available 
mailbox, ClinicalTrial@genmab.com. This 
mailbox is provided along with all registered trials 
on disclosure platforms such as ClinicalTrials.
gov and the EU CTIS public portal. At time of 
enrollment, the trial participants are provided 
an Informed Consent Form (ICF) to sign before 
joining a trial. The ICF contains additional 
information on channels to raise questions or 
concerns. The requests received are reviewed 
and assessed to ensure they are addressed by 
the appropriate Genmab function, while ensuring 
that personal information is handled securely and 
in compliance with privacy regulations.
MyNavCare
Patients enrolled in the MyNavCare program have 
access to dedicated team members who address 
their concerns, answer questions, and provide 
personalized assistance. The Patient Engagement 
Liaisons (PELs) serve as trusted points of contact, 
offering tailored support without providing 
medical advice or working under the direction 
of the prescribing healthcare providers. PELs 
are dedicated to helping patients and care 
partners by:
•	Providing information about the patient’s 
condition and what to expect while 
on treatment
•	Connecting them with external organizations
•	Offering resources tailored for the needs of both 
patients and care partners
This optional program ensures that patients feel 
supported and informed, creating a compas-
sionate framework that prioritizes patient 
empowerment while respecting the role of health-
care providers in treatment decisions.
The effectiveness of our work is tracked via 
regular meetings with our MyNavCare team 
members and through scheduled updates with the 
other cross functional teams leadership meetings. 
The Patient Services Steering Committee, made of 
senior U.S. Market leaders, meets every quarter to 
review the patient services program operational 
metrics and effectiveness.
Reporting a Side Effect or a Quality Concern
We take patient safety seriously. Reports of side 
effects and quality concerns enable us to ensure 
the safety of our medicines and the patients who 
take them. Genmab has a public number that 
patients may call. We state on all our resources 
the following:
You are encouraged to report side effects to 
the FDA at (800) FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/
medwatch or to Genmab US, Inc. at 1-855-
4GENMAB (18554436622).
The company systematically monitors and 
evaluates adverse events and other safety-­
related information associated with its therapies 
post-approval. This ongoing surveillance 
helps identify and respond to potential safety 
concerns promptly.
Speak Up Hotline
If patients or caregivers have concerns, they 
can raise them through the Speak Up Hotline. 
Our 24/7 full-service Speak Up (whistle­
blower) compliance hotline enables the 
anonymous reporting of illegal, unethical, and/
or non-compliant behavior and related concerns 
in connection with our organization. Our 
Compliance team regularly reviews these matters, 
and supports investigations as warranted, 
reporting to both management and the Audit & 
Finance Committee.
Refer to the Global Speak Up Policy and Hotline 
on our website, and S1-3 for further details.
Taking action on material impacts 
on consumers and end-users, and 
approaches to managing material 
risks and pursuing material 
opportunities related to consumers 
and end-users, and effectiveness 
of those actions (S4-4)
Genmab has safety measures in place for 
products, patients, and healthcare providers. 
Genmab believes that patient safety plays a 
critical role in our business operations. Genmab 
has a Comprehensive Safety Program that is 
designed to identify and mitigate potential risks 
associated with our products, and to ensure 
that our products are safe and effective for their 
intended use. We work closely with regulatory 
agencies to ensure that our products meet all 
safety and efficacy standards.
Genmab provided annual training programs on 
pharmacovigilance for global drug safety and 
pharmacovigilance (GDS&PV) staff, including 
regular updates and assessments to ensure 
continuous learning and compliance with the 
latest regulations. Also, Genmab developed 
and distributed educational materials on safety 
requirements to stakeholders and organized 
workshops to enhance their understanding 
and implementation of safety protocols. These

actions are linked to the personal safety and 
information of consumers and end-users.
The following actions were taken around 
Genmab’s material impacts on our consumers 
and end-users for 2024:
Access and integrity in clinical trials
We have a Patient Advisory Council and a Study 
Coordinator Advisory Council who provide input 
to our clinical trials. In addition, our clinical trials 
are reviewed by institutional review boards, 
ethics committees, regulatory authorities, and 
data and safety monitoring boards.
As of December 31, 2024, there was a total of 
25 ongoing Genmab-sponsored clinical trials, all 
registered on ClinicalTrials.gov. Our clinical trials 
are taking place in 37 countries worldwide with 
620 patients enrolled during the year.
Genmab complies with all applicable industry 
regulations, guidelines, and standards globally 
for drug development, such as cGLP, cGCP, 
cGMPs and good animal practice as defined 
by the Federation of European Laboratory 
Animal Science Associations (FELASA). We also 
monitor and comply with all relevant legislation 
and regulations, including guidelines issued 
by international regulatory authorities such 
as the European Medicines Agency (EMA), the 
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the 
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency 
(PMDA) and others. It is important to acknowl-
edge our relationship with Japan PMDA, as it 
reflects our global strength. Our operations were 
periodically audited by relevant authorities.
Clinical trials generate the data necessary 
to evaluate the safety and efficacy of drugs, 
providing insight on how to use a therapy and 
which patients are most likely to benefit from 
treatment. Even with the advancements in 
understanding the incidence of different cancers 
between genders and racial or ethnic groups, 
inequities persist, resulting in underrepresenta-
tion in clinical trials.
Genmab’s DE&I in Clinical Trials Project Team 
is responsible for defining and implementing 
a framework to deliver Genmab’s intentions to 
provide clinical trial treatment options to patients 
in a wider community and generate clinical trial 
data from currently underrepresented popu-
lations. The Project Team works to ensure all 
Genmab registration studies have a clear strategy 
and process for Diversity Plan success.
Genmab has been working to implement diversity 
in our pivotal clinical trials. In 2024, Genmab 
introduced a Diversity Action Plan (DAP) SOP and 
DAP template to be implemented for all pivotal 
trials. The inaugural Diversity Action Plan was 
submitted to the U.S. FDA in 2024. With the U.S. 
FDA final guidance expected in 2025 we will 
ensure compliance with the agency’s new rules 
and implement diversity in all applicable pivotal 
studies where appropriate.
Genmab systematically monitors and evaluates 
adverse events and other safety-related informa-
tion associated with its therapies post-approval. 
This ongoing surveillance helps identify and 
respond to potential safety concerns promptly. 
Our cross functional team regularly reviews 
matters, and supports investigations as 
warranted. We have a mix of internal and external 
committees that regularly monitors clinical trial 
data to track and assess the effectiveness of 
these actions mentioned above.
Market Access Programs to 
Allow for Product Availability for 
Uninsured or Underinsured
All Market Access colleagues undergo compre-
hensive annual compliance training to ensure 
adherence to regulatory standards and ethical 
practices. Here is a list of some of the key compli-
ance training modules they complete:
•	Data Privacy
•	U.S. FDA guidelines
•	The PhRMA code and Ad Promotion rules
•	Compliance issues including Anti-bribery 
and Speak Up modules (including 
whistleblower training)
•	Pharmacovigilance
•	Sunshine Act (and various other 
transparency laws)
•	Conflict of interest
The MyNavCare team also trains annually on 
specific compliance related PSS polices and 
business rules.
These training modules ensure that colleagues in 
the Market Access group remain informed about 
the latest regulatory requirements and ethical 
standards, thereby safeguarding the Company’s 
reputation and ensuring the continued availability 
of their products to patients. The tracking of the 
completion rates are monitored by the Global 
Compliance team.
Patient Engagement Programs Developed
Genmab is elevating the voices of patients and 
care partners by incorporating their perspectives 
into all aspects of our work from early-stage 
R&D to clinical trials and commercialization. 
These insights are vital to our ability to innovate 
and to support patients as they navigate the 
complex aspects of a serious illness. The effec-
tiveness of these patient engagement programs 
are tracked via regular meetings with our 
patient advisory council and through scheduled 
updates with other internal teams. Our patient 
advocacy team facilitated multiple touchpoints 
with key stakeholders throughout the year to 
provide opportunities for mutual learning and 
insight sharing:
•	Our Patient Advisory Council, formed in 
2023, which consisted of 16 members as 
of December 31, 2024 compared to 13 
members as of December 31, 2023, met 
nine times in 2024 and four times in 2023. In 
2024, topics discussed included feedback on 
patient materials, such as brand messaging 
and caregiver resources, the global and U.S. 
websites, and review of clinical trial materials, 
including informed consent forms, protocol, and 
lay summary. In 2023, topics discussed were 
around clinical trial recruitment and diversity 
in clinical trials, providing patient perspective 
on the cancer experience and how Genmab 
can better serve patients and care partners. 
Members of the Council represent people with a 
variety of tumor types, ages, geographies, and 
socioeconomic backgrounds.
•	Our third annual Science Day in 2024 brought 
together 29 leaders from 24 organizations and 
six patient advisors for 1.5 days of scientific 
discussion and knowledge exchange. Our second 
annual Science Day in 2023 brought together 
32 representatives from patient advocacy and 
professional groups, our Patient Advisory Council 
and Genmab team members to share information 
about our respective work to inform how we 
can best address the needs of patients and 
their care partners. Topics included AI, and the

cancer journey for patients and care partners. 
We understand the need for broad stakeholder 
education to help break down barriers and reach 
underrepresented populations, along with the 
need to support the patient and care partner to 
address the psychosocial impacts of living with 
cancer, such as feelings of depression, anxiety, 
and fear. The actionable insights gained from 
Science Day are key to shaping our future patient 
engagement and education efforts.
MyNavCare
We are bringing life-changing medicines 
and support services to patients through 
MyNavCare Patient Support. Since the 2023 
launch of EPKINLY in the U.S., through 2024, 
we have supported patients directly through 
MyNavCare Patient Support, our robust patient 
support program, and continuously worked with 
stakeholders across the healthcare system to 
ensure rapid and sustainable access to appro-
priate patients.
In the U.S., MyNavCare supports each patient’s 
unique needs alongside the needs of care 
partners. We support:
•	Patients and care partners through case 
management, insurance navigation and 
financial assistance, among other services
•	HCPs through navigating access, including 
reimbursement education, and billing and 
coverage information, among other resources 
with the overarching goal of supporting 
patients needs
We also provide access support for eligible 
patients who are uninsured or underinsured 
through our Patient Assistance Program, which 
minimizes the burden of applying for assistance 
and quickly determines eligibility.
We aim to take great care and consideration to 
help ensure rapid and sustainable access for all 
appropriate patients who may benefit from our 
therapies as we look to bring our own medicines 
to additional markets in the future. We remain 
focused in our pursuit to turn innovative science 
into medicine that creates value and delivers 
meaningful impact to patients, their care partners 
and the HCPs who serve them.
Under the leadership of our Vice President, U.S. 
Market Access, our market access function is 
responsible for oversight of MyNavCare.
The effectiveness of our work is tracked via 
regular meetings with our MyNavCare team 
members and through scheduled updates 
with the other cross functional teams leader-
ship meetings.
Clinical Trial Transparency
To ensure access to quality information for 
patients, consumers, and end-users, Genmab has 
taken the following action in 2024:
•	Offered trial descriptions in the ClinicalTrials.gov 
registration that are clear and understandable 
for non-scientists, benefiting potential trial 
participants.
Tracking and assessment is done by reviewing 
requests received from consumers and end-users 
via Genmab’s publicly available mailbox, 
ClinicalTrial@genmab.com. The received 
requests are triaged to ensure they are addressed 
by the appropriate Genmab function.
Continuous Improvement
•	Genmab is committed to continuous 
improvement in patient engagement and 
safety monitoring. The Company regularly 
evaluates feedback from 
advocacy groups and 
utilizes social media to 
assess the effectiveness 
of its communications. 
By fostering a culture 
of open dialogue and 
ethical conduct, Genmab 
not only meets regulatory 
requirements but also builds 
trust with the patients and 
healthcare providers it serves.
•	Genmab is actively working to 
reduce the clinical trial burden for 
patients. Engaging our Patient Advisory 
Council to review protocols and integrating 
patient feedback into our trials, and developing 
health-literate materials are some of the ways 
in which we help to increase access to our 
clinical trials.
•	Our Clinical Trial Transparency Declaration 
acknowledges our strong commitment to the 
scientific and ethical aspects of increasing 
the transparency of clinical trial research. In 
alignment with the Declaration, we disclosed 
information and results from our clinical trials 
through publicly accessible study registries/
databases such as ClinicalTrials.gov, and the 
European Union Clinical Trials Information 
System (EU CTIS), to ensure compliance with 
global and national laws in the evolving area of 
transparency.

Healthy corporate culture aligned 
with core values and purpose
In our quest to turn science into medicine, we 
use these guideposts to transform the future of 
cancer treatment:
•	Passion for innovation
•	Determination — being the best at what we do
•	Integrity — we do the right thing
•	We work as one team and respect each other
Without maintaining a healthy corporate culture, 
Genmab is exposed to compliance and other 
risks. Genmab has an opportunity to provide 
annual training to employees on key business 
conduct matters. Annual Code of Conduct training 
is mandatory for all employees, with launch 
and completion rates monitored by the Global 
Compliance team. The Code of Conduct training 
should decrease behaviors that go against our 
Code of Conduct that could lead to compliance or 
other issues.
Cybersecurity programs in place to 
protect the privacy of our business, 
our own workforce and patients
We focus on privacy and protection of personal 
data at Genmab, covering several data catego-
ries, such as the data of patients, employees, 
business partners, HCPs, and other stakeholders. 
Genmab acknowledges the risk related to cyber-
security breaches that could occur within our 
value chain. We have taken solid measures to 
protect personal data in compliance with the EU 
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and 
other applicable personal data protection legisla-
tion and requirements. All our team members are 
educated in the GDPR.
The Global Information Security and Risk 
Management team reports to the Board on a 
quarterly basis. No security incidents with critical 
or material business impact have been reported 
in 2024.
Accounting policies
Genmab has a security incident management 
process and a separate security incident system 
which security incidents are processed. Incidents 
are entered through a number of channels 
including Genmab’s security monitoring partner, 
by employees through Genmab’s internal 
systems and by Genmab’s security operations 
team. Security incidents are analyzed and rated 
according to different priority categories ranging 
from priority 1 (critical) to priority 4 (low). We 
perform an analysis of the number of incidents 
with business impact utilizing the financial 
statement materiality threshold. Incidences with 
material impact are reported to Genmab’s Board 
on a quarterly basis.

tleblower) compliance hotline enables the 
anonymous reporting of illegal, unethical, and/
or non-compliant behavior and related concerns 
in connection with our organization. Our 
Compliance team regularly reviews these matters 
which pose legal and regulatory risks to Genmab, 
and supports investigations as warranted, 
reporting to both management and the Audit & 
Finance Committee.
Animal welfare policy
Genmab understands the legal and regulatory 
risks associated with working with animals in 
our business, and our animal welfare policy 
represents Genmab’s commitment to sound 
practices that aim to replace, reduce, and refine 
the use of animals in Genmab’s research and 
development.
Strong management of suppliers, 
ensuring compliance with Genmab’s 
Global Supplier Code of Conduct
Supplier relationship management is a key 
business initiative that aims to build mutually 
beneficial relationships between the company 
and suppliers. Well-designed programs help 
companies to increase collaboration by identi-
fying the right suppliers. Genmab understands 
the risk of being dependent on existing part-
nerships, and has mitigation efforts in place to 
address these risks.
Genmab has a real opportunity to partner with 
suppliers on Sustainability related commitments 
around the environment and our Supplier Code 
of Conduct which could lead to cost savings and 
stronger relationships in the future.
Refer to E1-4 for environmental targets linked to 
supplier engagement.
Ethical business culture and 
business practices
We are committed to operating all aspects of 
our business with the utmost integrity. We have 
an established global compliance program and 
incorporate compliance, ethics and transpar-
ency considerations into our business practices, 
policies, and procedures. We hold ourselves 
accountable to high ethical standards, promoting 
our Code of Conduct to employees and engaging 
with partners and suppliers committed to the 
same level of ethics in their operations. We 
are committed to conducting all aspects of our 
business in an ethical, honest, and transparent 
manner, and understand there are various regula-
tory, legislative and compliance risks.
All employees and contractors are required to 
complete annual training and attest to their 
commitment to adhere to our ethical standards. 
The Code of Conduct training provides an 
overview of our Ethical Standards, Company 
Values, and incorporates training vignettes that 
illustrate ethical approaches to common business 
practices. This training also reviews relevant anti-
bribery and anti-corruption, regulatory, conflicts 
of interest, and Speak Up concepts. Compliance 
team members receive regular compliance 
training on key aspects of our compliance policies 
and procedures.
Refer to GOV-1 for details of the role and 
expertise of the administrative, management 
and supervisory bodies related to business 
conduct matters.

The leader of our Global Compliance and 
Enterprise Risk Management programs reports 
directly to the CEO and the Board.
Genmab’s policies on business conduct related 
matters linked to material IROs disclosed in

Code of Conduct
Genmab’s Code of Conduct sets high ethical 
standards for all employees and the Board when 
conducting business on behalf of Genmab. The 
Code of Conduct encourages team members 
to conduct themselves in a manner reflecting 
our core values, determination, integrity, inno-
vation, and teamwork when representing the 
Company. All employees are required to complete 
annual training and attest to their commitment 
to adhere to our ethical standards. The Code of 
Conduct training provides an overview of our 
Ethical Standards, Company Values, and incor-
porates training vignettes that illustrate ethical 
approaches to common business practices. 
This training also reviews relevant anti-bribery 
and anti-corruption, regulatory, conflicts of 
interest, and Speak Up concepts. Our head of 
Global Compliance is responsible for the Code 
of Conduct and reports directly to our CEO, and 
both are members of the CSR & Sustainability 
Committee. The Global Compliance team 
monitors completion of the annual Code of 
Conduct training and provides progress updates 
to function leaders and the Global Compliance 
and Risk Committee. The Code of Conduct can 
be mapped to the positive impact of a healthy 
corporate culture aligned with core values and 
purpose. Refer to the Code of Conduct on 
our website.
Global Compliance Policy
Our internal Global Compliance Policy, owned 
by our head of Global Compliance, outlines our 
standards on interactions and engagements 
with HCPs, healthcare organizations, patients, 
patient association groups and government 
officials consistent with applicable industry 
codes and standards. The policy aligns with the 
values and principles articulated in our Code of 
Conduct and is complemented by an associated 
Global Fair Market Value Policy and a Compliance 
Playbook tool to ensure stakeholder engagement 
is conducted in an ethical, compliant manner. 
As a result of the commercialization our first 
co-owned medicines including TIVDAK (2021) 
and EPKINLY (2023), we have expanded our 
compliance program to assure ethical market-
based and customer-focused business practices. 
Genmab maintains a Global Compliance Program 
staffed by compliance professionals who monitor 
adherence to the policy.
Global Speak Up Policy
Genmab maintains a Speak Up (whistleblower) 
program featuring an independently operated 
hotline service available globally intended to 
provide anyone with information about potential 
misconduct related to Genmab or its business 
activities the opportunity to report the miscon-
duct. Genmab’s Speak Up program is intended 
to accommodate information from any group 
with information including all Genmab’s current 
and former employees, directors, contractors, 
customers, suppliers, and other third parties 
wishing to report concerns.
All reports made through the Genmab Speak Up 
program are assessed and considered by the 
Genmab Global Compliance team in a prompt, 
fair, and compliant manner. Genmab has estab-
lished procedures to protect whistleblowers and 
ensure they do not suffer retaliation for their 
report. On a quarterly basis, Genmab’s Audit and 
Finance Committee receives a summary of all 
reports made under the Speak Up program along 
with additional information about any material 
incidents raised. Summaries of all reports 
made to the Speak Up program are provided to 
Genmab’s Global Compliance and Risk Committee 
(GCRC) annually.
All Genmab employees and contractors are 
required to take Speak Up training, and comple-
tion metrics are monitored by the Compliance 
team. Speak Up program training is a mandatory 
component of employee onboarding and also an 
annual requirement.
Genmab has zero tolerance for any retaliation 
against anyone who raises concerns or partic-
ipates in investigations. Retaliation includes 
any conduct or treatment that could discourage 
someone from speaking up. Genmab will protect 
the identity of people who participate in the 
Speak Up program as appropriate and consistent 
with applicable law. Genmab utilizes a number of 
methods (determined by the scenario) to protect 
whistleblowers from retaliation or detriment 
including but not limited to discrimination, 
harassment, physical or psychological harm, 
isolation, impact to employee performance and/
or compensation, damaging property, or varying 
employee’s role or duties.
The Global Speak Up Policy can be mapped to the 
positive impact of protection of whistleblowers 
through anti-retaliation policies and procedures.
Refer to the Global Speak Up Policy on our 
website, and S1-3 for further details. Refer to 
G1-3 for Genmab’s procedures to investigate 
business conduct matters.
Anti-Fraud Policy
Genmab has an internal Anti-Fraud Policy that 
communicates anti-fraud principles and program 
elements, and management’s responsibility for 
detecting and responding to fraud and miscon-
duct. This Policy applies to all employees, 
officers, directors of Genmab, and management 
regardless of legal entity or work location, and 
anyone supervising the performance of services 
for or on behalf of Genmab, including contractors, 
contingent workers, agents, suppliers, and consul-
tants (collectively “Genmab Person”). Genmab’s 
Corporate Controller is responsible for the anti-
fraud policy and reports to the CFO. Genmab 
monitors through Internal Audit assessing the 
potential for fraud risk when planning indi-
vidual audits. On an annual basis, a fraud risk 
assessment is prepared with the participation of 
management. This annual fraud risk assessment 
is presented to the Audit & Finance Committee.

Data Ethics Policy
The use of data, both personal and non-­personal, 
is essential to fulfilling our core purpose, 
and we are committed to handling data with 
integrity and in an ethical and compliant manner. 
Genmab has developed a global data privacy 
program supported by a cross-functional team of 
global data privacy subject matter experts and 
appointed an external Data Privacy Officer (DPO) 
dedicated to GDPR compliance and oversight.
Our Data Ethics Policy complies with Section 
99d of the Danish Financial Statements Act, 
and we adopted the Data Ethics principles of 
the International Federation of Pharmaceutical 
Manufacturers & Associations (IFPMA). As part of 
this commitment to ethical and responsible use 
of data and overall transparency, Genmab has 
made this Data Ethics Policy publicly available 
to all external stakeholders. Refer to the Data 
Ethics Policy on our website.
The policy and its principles are anchored in our 
Code of Conduct as part of our overall Compliance 
program, and has been communicated to our 
management so they can share and consider 
it with team members. Over the past year, we 
focused on further embedding these principles 
into our operations, particularly in the areas of 
data privacy, DE&I, clinical trials, and the applica-
tion of new technologies such as AI and machine 
learning. This goal was supported by efforts to 
evolve our data privacy governance model into a 
forward-looking and comprehensive global data 
privacy program. Genmab, in 2025, will continue 
to optimize and enhance its approach to respon-
sible and ethical use of data in its operations 
through continued transformation of and invest-
ment in its global data privacy program. There 
were no substantiated complaints concerning 
breaches of data privacy from individuals or data 
protection authorities in 2024 or 2023.
Cybersecurity Program
We maintain a comprehensive cybersecurity 
program based on the National Institute of 
Standards and Technology’s NIST 800 Special 
Publication Information Security standard (“NIST 
standard”) for managing cybersecurity activities, 
including formulation of global objectives of the 
cybersecurity program and risk identification and 
mitigation activities.
Our Global Cybersecurity Program is under the 
leadership of the vice president and global head 
of cybersecurity and IT risk management who 
reports to the senior vice president, global head of 
IT & digital. The program is overseen by the Global 
Compliance and Risk Committee (co-chaired by 
our CEO and our global head of compliance and 
risk) and the Audit and Finance Committee.
The program includes activities and projects in 
all five functions of the NIST standard with the 
goal of further improving our security profile 
and adapting, where needed, to changes in the 
business strategy and threat environment of 
Genmab. Input for the program comes from the 
annual attack and penetration test, periodic 
threat landscape and security maturity assess-
ments, as well as requirements of applicable 
cybersecurity regulations.
We have established a Cyber Response Task 
Force responsible for responding to potential 
cyber crisis situations that could have an impact 
on our Company, partners, or patients we serve. 
The Task Force provides assurance that our 
incident response and recovery capability is 
effective in increasing our ability to prevent, 
detect and respond to potential cyberattacks.
We regard the protection of the Company against 
cybersecurity attacks as a task for everyone 
in the organization. Therefore, employees are 
provided with information about cybersecurity 
risks and how to detect and report security 
incidents in online trainings and quarterly 
security events. The Cybersecurity Program can 
be mapped to the positive impact of cybersecu-
rity and global data privacy programs in place 
to protect the privacy of our business, our own 
workforce, patients and all individuals who 
entrust us with their information.
Animal Welfare Policy
At Genmab, we use research animals for the 
purpose of addressing important scientific 
questions or to fulfill a regulatory requirement. 
Animals have intrinsic value and experiments on 
animals are only carried out when no appropriate 
alternative method is available.
Genmab has established an internal animal 
welfare policy and animal welfare management 
procedures for its locations in the U.S., Europe, 
Japan, and China that incorporate local laws and 
regulations and that reflect our high standards. 
We plan to harmonize these ways of working 
between our sites in 2025.
Our policies reflect our responsible and humane 
use of animals in research. We actively continue 
to drive the implementation of the 3Rs principles 
(Replacement, Reduction and Refinement) in all 
that we do. A dedicated animal welfare officer 
monitors animal welfare policies and practices, 
ensuring we continuously refine the care and use 
of the animals involved in our research.
In 2023, we implemented the use of low-stress 
handling techniques for mice, the use of optimized 
nesting material and started an ongoing effort to 
use minimally invasive techniques for the identifi-
cation (marking) of rodents to improve the welfare 
of animals in our daily care.
In 2024, we launched a Global Animal Welfare 
Committee who owns the policies, to explore 
3R opportunities, to advise on animal welfare 
matters and to work towards enhancing our trans-
parency regarding the use of animals in research. 
In addition, we started to develop internal 
policies describing all the elements of working 
with animals.
Genmab provides continuing education to 
team members working with animals on ethical 
treatment of animals.
Genmab performs animal welfare audits at 
external contractors, when required, to ensure 
contractors maintain comparable high standards 
for animal use and care as we do internally. All 
animal studies performed, whether internally 
or externally, are Genmab’s moral and ethical 
responsibility and we strive to apply our high 
standards in all that we do.
Refer to G1-2 for details of the Global 
Procurement Policy and Global Supplier Code 
of Conduct.
Refer to G1-3 for details of the Anti-Corruption 
Anti-Bribery Policy which includes disclosure of 
functions within Genmab that are most at risk in 
respect of corruption and bribery.
Other Genmab policies disclosed on our 
website or internal Genmab policies include 
the Enterprise Risk Management and Resilience 
Policy, International Trade Controls Policy, and 
Tax Policy.

Management of relationships 
with suppliers (G1-2)
Genmab’s Global Procurement functions which 
include, R&D Contract Management, Lab 
Purchase Management, CMC Commercial Supply 
Chain and Global Procurement (collectively 
known as “Procurement”) are created to be a 
trusted value adding partner to both internal and 
external stakeholders across the entire Genmab 
value chain.
Global Procurement Policy
Genmab’s Global Procurement Policy is an import-
ant tool utilized by our team members to steer 
the procurement practices and increase financial 
cost control and transparency within Genmab. 
Furthermore, the Policy helps assess and miti-
gate risk, ensure selection and maintenance of 
high quality, regulatory compliant third parties, 
through a transparent, fair, and compliant pro-
cess. Genmab’s CFO is responsible for the policy, 
which is available on Genmab’s intranet.
The Global Procurement Policy states that 
suppliers have to be on-boarded prior to 
engaging in a commercial relationship to ensure 
timely payment. The use of purchase orders, 
which is also mandated by the Procurement 
Policy, furthermore, facilitates approval of 
invoiced spend, ensuring that the agreed upon 
payment terms are being met. Suppliers that 
self-identify to Genmab as small and medium 
enterprises (SMEs), have 30 days net as a 
standard payment term unless contractually 
agreed otherwise in writing, which is clearly 
stated in the Global Procurement Policy.
The procurement process is set up to facili-
tate on-time payments, starting with proper 
on-boarding of the suppliers prior to engaging 
in a commercial relationship, followed by a 
mandatory use of Purchase Requisitions and 
Purchase Orders (with an exception list), ensuring 
that, when an invoice is received it will be paid in 
a timely manner.
Supplier Code of Conduct
Our Supplier Code of Conduct articulates expec-
tations for all third parties conducting work on 
our behalf, minimizing risks to Genmab posed 
by our suppliers’ activities. The Supplier Code of 
Conduct addresses topics that include, but are 
not limited to, anti-bribery and anti-corruption, 
privacy, trade compliance, conflicts of interest, 
human and labor rights, diversity, compliance 
with environmental laws and regulations, supply 
chain and animal welfare, protecting information 
and intellectual property, protecting physical 
and digital security and product compliance and 
quality. Our VP, Head of Global Procurement who 
reports to our CFO is responsible for the policy. In 
2024 and 2023, all new Genmab suppliers have 
been required to attest to our Supplier Code of 
Conduct annually as part of the onboarding and 
contracting process.
Our Global Procurement function implemented 
a dedicated supplier vetting tool which serves 
as a single point of entry for all new suppliers. 
Information technology & digital, quality 
assurance, compliance and risk, and legal 
functions are involved when the risk score is 
elevated based on a fact-based approach. Our 
vetting process focuses on financial health, inter-
national sanctions, regulatory and reputational 
risks, and other key issues. Suppliers in sanctioned 
countries are subject to additional legal review 
before payments may be processed. 
In 2023, we established a supplier diversity 
program in the U.S., working closely with entities 
such as the Veterans Administration to align on 
targets. Genmab defines a diverse supplier as a 
>51% women, minority, or veteran-owned small 
business. The Supplier Master Registry in SAP has 
been updated in 2024 with a specific field to allow 
Genmab to monitor supplier diversity for the U.S.
We have created our first-ever Company-wide 
supplier governance best practices guide to 
improve how we work together across lines of 
business, and how we partner with suppliers 
so all teams can successfully execute against 
their goals. In January 2024, contract managers, 
sourcing managers, procurement leads and 
alliance managers have been trained on how 
and when to apply these best practices in 
support of our lines of businesses’ priorities and 
goals. A Vendor Risk Manager is planned to be 
on-boarded in 2025 to ensure proper documen-
tation and tracking of the initiative.
All the Genmab suppliers are vetted against 
unethical business practices, including adverse 
media, U.S. and EU Sanctions lists and the 
Global Corruption Index as well as a review of 
the financial health of the third party.
The Global Procurement Policy and Supplier Code 
of Conduct can be mapped to the positive impact 
of our strong management of suppliers, focused 
on compliance with supplier code of conduct, and 
targets set are the responsibility of our global 
procurement team.
Targets for supplier management:
•	Acceptance of Genmab’s Supplier Code 
of Conduct by 80% of suppliers by spend 
by 2025
The target specifically supports important gover-
nance topics covered in the Supplier Code of 
Conduct including areas like legal compliance, 
anti-corruption and bribery, labor practices, 
human rights, supply chain, animal welfare, 
protection of information and intellectual 
property/security. Genmab will monitor, review 
and report metrics related to this target in the 
next annual report.
Refer to E1-4 for details of Genmab’s engage-
ment plans with suppliers on Scope 3 emission 
reductions targets.
Prevention and detection of 
corruption and bribery (G1-3)
Anti-Bribery and Anti-
Corruption (ABAC) Policy
As a global company, we implement policies to 
mitigate risks related to bribery and corruption. 
Our Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption (ABAC) 
Policy educates team members on recognizing 
risks, emphasizes our zero-tolerance stance, and 
outlines reporting mechanisms for suspected 
misconduct. All employees receive annual ABAC 
training, and we are enhancing due diligence and 
monitoring activities for better oversight. In 2023, 
we updated our Quarterly Financial Disclosure 
Questionnaire to improve management disclo-
sures regarding potential bribery and corruption.

Genmab 2024 Annual Report

Sustainability Statements
Management identifies the primary bribery and 
corruption risks as payments or gifts intended to 
secure preferential treatment for the company. 
Employees interacting with public officials or 
regulatory representatives face heightened risks, 
as do those dealing with healthcare providers 
and third parties on Genmab’s behalf, especially 
due to limited oversight of third-party anti-­
corruption practices.
Reports of bribery or corruption are reviewed 
by the Global Compliance Program, which 
reports directly to the CEO. Annual summaries 
are provided to the Global Compliance and 
Risk Committee and the Board, detailing all 
reported incidents.
We consider all functions within the business to 
be potentially subject to corruption and bribery 
and as such, 100% of Genmab employees, 
contractors, and Board members must complete 
annual Code of Conduct training, which covers 
ABAC, regulatory issues, conflicts of interest, 
and reporting mechanisms. New hires also 
receive ABAC training. Our Compliance program 
maintains a SharePoint site for business conduct 
policies and uses the company intranet to 
communicate key concepts.
Every two years, business functions assess their 
vulnerability to corruption and report findings 
to the Compliance organization, which may 
implement further controls. Our Internal Audit 
function also conducts an annual fraud assess-
ment. The Anti-Bribery and Anti-Corruption Policy 
can be mapped to the positive impact of our 
ethical business culture and business practices.

Business conduct metrics  
and targets
Incidents of corruption or bribery  
(G1-4)
Genmab defines bribery as acts designed to 
influence individuals to act dishonestly in the 
performance or discharge of their duty, and 
corruption as the misuse of office or power 
or influence for private gain. Genmab has a 
zero-­tolerance policy for any acts of bribery 
or corruption by employees, contingent staff, 
management, officers, directors, or third-party 
agents or representatives. Genmab’s 24/7 Speak 
Up Compliance Hotline enables the anonymous 
reporting of behavior indicative of corruption 
or bribery. Our compliance team reviews these 
reports and supports investigations as warranted. 
A review of all hotline reported incidents indicates 
no submissions related to a Genmab employee, 
contingent staff, management, officer, director, or 
third-party agent or representative performing an 
act of bribery or corruption in 2024 or 2023, thus 
no incidents of corruption or bribery.
Payment practices (G1-6)
Standard payment terms are 45 days net.
For certain categories of suppliers there are other 
possible payment terms, for example 30 days net 
allowed for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) 
and 7 days net for Grants/Sponsorships and 
Government organizations.
Genmab defines SMEs as enterprises which 
employ fewer than 10 persons or which have 
an annual turnover not exceeding EUR/USD 
10 million.
There were no legal proceedings for late 
payments in 2024, including payments to SMEs.
Currently, Genmab does not have a process to 
track actual payment terms by main category of 
suppliers. However, the average time Genmab 
takes to pay an invoice for all suppliers with 
varying payment terms from the date when the 
contractual or statutory term of payment starts to 
be calculated, in number of days was 46 in 2024.

Basis of Presentation
These consolidated financial statements include 
Genmab A/S (parent company) and subsidiaries 
over which the parent company has control. The

This section describes Genmab’s general 
accounting policies including management’s 
judgements and estimates under IFRS Accounting 
Standards as issued by the International 
Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and endorsed 
by the EU (IFRS Accounting Standards). The 
specific accounting policies are described in each 
note in conjunction with supplementary disclo-
sures of the specific item with the aim to provide 
a more understandable description of each 
accounting area.
1.1	
Nature of the Business and Material 
Accounting Policies
Genmab A/S is a publicly traded, international 
biotechnology company that was founded in 
1999 and specializes in the creation and devel-
opment of differentiated antibody therapeutics 
for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. 
Genmab has six approved products commer-
cialized by third parties, two approved products 
that are jointly commercialized with a collabo-
ration partner, a broad clinical and preclinical

Materiality
Genmab’s Annual Report is based on the 
concept of materiality and the Company focuses 
on information that is considered material 
and relevant to the users of the consolidated 
financial statements. The consolidated financial 
statements consist of a large number of trans-
actions. These transactions are aggregated into 
classes according to their nature or function 
and presented in classes of similar items in the 
consolidated financial statements as required by 
IFRS and the Danish Financial Statements Act. If 
items are individually immaterial, they are aggre-
gated with other items of similar nature in the 
consolidated financial statements or in the notes.
Genmab provides these specific required disclo-
sures unless the information is considered 
immaterial to the economic decision-making of 
the readers of the consolidated financial state-
ments or not applicable.

Consolidated Financial Statements
The consolidated financial statements include Genmab A/S and subsidiaries over which the parent 
company has control. The parent controls a subsidiary when the parent is exposed to, or has rights 
to, variable returns from its involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns 
through its power to direct the activities of the subsidiary. Genmab A/S (parent company) holds invest-
ments either directly or indirectly in the following subsidiaries:

Genmab’s consolidated financial statements 
have been prepared on the basis of the financial 
statements of the parent company and subsid-
iaries — prepared under Genmab’s accounting 
policies — by combining similar accounting items 
on a line-by-line basis. On consolidation, inter-
company income and expenses, intercompany 
receivables and payables, and unrealized gains 
and losses on transactions between the consoli-
dated companies are eliminated.
The recorded value of the equity interests in the 
consolidated subsidiaries is eliminated with the 
proportionate share of the subsidiaries’ equity. 
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date when 
control is transferred to the Group.
Items included in the financial statements of 
Genmab’s entities are measured using the 
currency of the primary economic environment in 
which the entity operates (functional currency).
The income statements for subsidiaries with 
a different functional currency than Genmab’s 
presentation currency are translated into 
Genmab’s presentation currency at average 
exchange rates, and the balance sheets are trans-
lated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance 
sheet date.
Exchange rate differences arising from the trans-
lation of foreign subsidiaries shareholders’ equity 
at the beginning of the year and exchange rate 
differences arising as a result of foreign subsid-
iaries’ income statements being translated at 
average exchange rates are recorded in transla-
tion reserves in shareholders’ equity.
Functional and Presentation Currency
The consolidated financial statements have 
been prepared in Danish Kroner (DKK), which is 
the functional and presentation currency of the 
parent company.
Foreign Currency
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated 
at the exchange rates in effect at the date of the 
transaction.
Exchange rate gains and losses arising between 
the transaction date and the settlement date 
are recognized in the Consolidated Statements 
of Comprehensive Income as financial income 
or expense.
Unsettled monetary assets and liabilities in 
foreign currencies are translated at the exchange 
rates in effect at the balance sheet date. 
Exchange rate gains and losses arising between 
the transaction date and the balance sheet date 
are recognized in the Consolidated Statements 
of Comprehensive Income as financial income 
or expense.
Classification of Costs and Operating 
Expenses in the Income Statement
Cost of Product Sales
Cost of product sales includes direct and 
indirect costs relating to the manufacturing 
of inventory mainly from third-party providers 
of manufacturing as well as costs related to 
internal resources and distribution and logistics. 
Inventory amounts written down as a result of 
excess or obsolescence are charged to cost of 
product sales. Also included in Cost of Product 
Sales are royalty payments on commercialized 
products. Aside from these items, there are no 
other costs included within cost of product sales.
Additionally, cost of product sales includes 
profit-sharing amounts owed to collaboration 
partners for the sale of commercial products 
when Genmab is determined to be the principal 
in sales to end customers. The only profit-sharing 
amounts owed to collaboration partners that are 
recorded as cost of product sales relate to sales 
of EPKINLY in the U.S. and Japan pursuant to the 
Collaboration Agreement with AbbVie.
Refer to Note 5.6 in the Annual Report for 
detailed information regarding Genmab’s 
Collaboration Agreement with AbbVie.

Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses primarily 
include salaries, benefits and other employee-​
related costs of Genmab’s research and 
development staff, license costs, manufacturing 
costs, preclinical costs, clinical trials, contrac-
tors and outside service fees, amortization and 
impairment of licenses and rights related to 
intangible assets, depreciation of property and 
equipment, and depreciation of right-of-use 
assets, to the extent that such costs are related to 
the Group’s research and development activities.
Refer to Note 3.1 for a more detailed description 
on the treatment of Genmab’s research and 
development expenses.
Selling, General and 
Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses 
relate to the management and administration of 
Genmab, including commercialization activities. 
This primarily includes salaries, benefits and 
other employee costs related to management and 
support functions including human resources, 
information technology and the finance depart-
ments. In addition, depreciation of property 
and equipment and depreciation of right-of-use 
assets, to the extent such expenses are related 
to administrative functions, are also included. 
Selling, general and administrative expenses 
are recognized in the Consolidated Statements 
of Comprehensive Income in the period to which 
they relate.
Acquisition and Integration 
Related Charges
Acquisition and integration related charges for 
the acquisition of ProfoundBio which occurred 
during the second quarter of 2024.
Refer to Note 5.5 for more information regarding 
Genmab’s Acquisition and Integration costs 
related to the acquisition of ProfoundBio.
Government Grants
Government grants are recognized at their fair 
value where there is reasonable assurance that 
the grant will be received and that Genmab will 
comply with all attaching conditions. When the 
grant relates to an expense item, it is recognized 
as a reduction of that expense on a systematic 
basis over the periods that the costs for which it 
is intended to compensate are incurred. Where 
the grant relates to an asset, the fair value is 
credited to a contract liability account and is 
released to the statement of comprehensive 
income as other operating income over the 
expected useful life of the relevant asset by equal 
annual installments.
Statements of Cash Flows
The cash flow statement is presented using 
the indirect method with basis in the net profit 
before tax.
Cash flows from operating activities are stated 
as the net profit before tax adjusted for financial 
income and expense, non-cash operating items 
including depreciation, amortization, impairment 
losses, share-based compensation expenses, 
and for changes in operating assets and liabili-
ties, interest paid and received, interest elements 
of lease payments and corporate taxes paid or 
received. Operating assets and liabilities are 
mainly comprised of changes in receivables, 
inventories and other payables excluding the 
items included in cash and cash equivalents. 
Changes in non-current assets and liabilities are 
included in operating assets and liabilities, if 
related to the main revenue-producing activities 
of Genmab.
Cash flows from investing activities consist of 
acquisitions of businesses, net of cash acquired, 
purchases and sales of marketable securities and 
other investments, as well as purchases of intan-
gible assets and property and equipment.
Cash flows from financing activities relate to the 
purchase of treasury shares, exercise of warrants, 
payments of withholding taxes on behalf of 
employees on net settled RSUs and payments 
of long-term loans including installments on 
lease liabilities.
Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of 
cash, bank deposits, and marketable securities 
with a maturity of less than 90 days on the date 
of acquisition.
The statements of cash flows cannot be derived 
solely from the consolidated financial statements.
Treasury Shares
The total amount paid to acquire treasury shares 
including directly attributable costs and the 
proceeds from the sale of treasury shares is 
recognized in retained earnings.
Collaborations, License Agreements 
and Collaborative Agreements
Collaborations and License Agreements
Genmab continues to pursue the establishment 
of research collaborations and licensing agree-
ments. These arrangements often include upfront 
payments, expense reimbursements or payments 
to the collaboration partner, and milestone 
and royalty arrangements, contingent upon the 
occurrence of certain future events linked to the 
success of the asset in development.
In regard to Genmab’s license agreements 
with J&J, Novartis and Roche, each of these 
parties retain final decision-making authority 
over the relevant activities and as such no joint 
control exists.
Refer to Note 2.1 for additional information 
related to revenue from these parties.

Collaborative Agreements
Genmab has entered into a number of joint 
collaborative agreements. These agreements 
often include upfront payments, expense reim-
bursements or payments to the collaboration 
partner, and milestone and royalty arrangements, 
contingent upon the occurrence of certain future 
events linked to the success of the asset in 
development.
These agreements also provide Genmab with 
varying rights to develop, produce and market 
products together with its collaborative partners. 
Both parties in these arrangements share in the 
decision-making and therefore have joint control 
of the arrangement. In 2024, Genmab’s more 
significant collaboration agreements are with 
AbbVie (epcoritamab), Pfizer (tisotumab vedotin) 
and BioNTech.
Refer to Note 2.1 for additional information 
related to revenue from our joint collabora-
tive agreements.

New Accounting Policies and 
Disclosures
New Accounting Policies and 
Disclosures for 2024
Genmab has, with effect from January 1, 
2024, implemented the following standards 
and amendments:
•	Amendments to IFRS 16 Leases: Lease Liability 
in a Sale and Leaseback
•	Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial 
Statements: Classification of Liabilities as 
Current or Non-current, Classification of 
Liabilities as Current or Non-current — Deferral 
of Effective Date, and Non-current Liabilities 
with Covenants, and
•	Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows 
and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures: 
Supplier Finance Arrangements
The implementation of these amendments did 
not have a material impact on the consolidated 
financial statements for the current or prior 
reporting periods and is not expected to have a 
significant impact in future reporting periods.
New Accounting Policies and 
Disclosures Effective in 2025 or Later
Furthermore, as it relates to new or amended 
accounting standards and interpretations 
(IFRSs) issued by the IASB, management 
does not anticipate any significant impact 
on the Consolidated Financial Statements 
in the period of initial application from the 
adoption of these new standards and amend-
ments, apart from IFRS 18 ‘Presentation and 
Disclosure in Financial Statements’ which 
replaces IAS 1 effective from 1 January 2027. 
The new IFRS 18 is expected to change the 
presentation of the financial statements, 
requiring items of income and expense to 
be classified into five categories: operating, 
investing, finance, income taxes and discon-
tinued operations along with two new 
mandatory sub-totals, operating profit or 
loss and profit or loss before financing and 
income taxes. IFRS 18 will not impact the 
recognition or measurement of items in the 
financial statements.
1.3	
Management’s Judgements and 
Estimates under IFRS
In preparing financial statements under IFRS, 
certain provisions in the standards require 
management’s judgements, including various 
accounting estimates and assumptions. These 
judgements and estimates affect the applica-
tion of accounting policies, as well as reported 
amounts within the consolidated financial state-
ments and disclosures.
Determining the carrying amount of certain 
assets and liabilities requires judgements, 
estimates and assumptions concerning future 
events that are based on historical experience 
and other factors, which by their very nature are 
associated with uncertainty and unpredictability.
Accounting estimates are based on historical 
experience and various other factors relative 
to the circumstances in which they are applied. 
Estimates are generally made based on informa-
tion available at the time.
Accounting judgements are made in the 
process of applying accounting policies. These 
judgements are typically made based on the 
guidance and information available at the time of 
application.
These estimates and judgements may prove 
incomplete or incorrect, and unexpected events 
or circumstances may arise. Genmab is also 
subject to risks and uncertainties which may 
lead actual results to differ from these estimates, 
both positively and negatively. Specific risks for 
Genmab are discussed in the relevant section of 
this Annual Report and in the notes to the consol-
idated financial statements.

  Accounting Policies
Genmab recognizes revenue when its customer 
obtains control of promised goods or services, in 
an amount that reflects the consideration that it 
expects to receive in exchange for those goods 
or services. To determine revenue recognition 
for arrangements that Genmab determines are 
within the scope of IFRS 15, Genmab performs 
the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) 
with a customer; (ii) identify the performance 
obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the 
transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction 
price to the performance obligations in the 
contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) 
the entity satisfies a performance obligation. 
Genmab only applies the five-step model to 
contracts when it is probable that the Company 
will collect the consideration it is entitled to in 
exchange for the goods or services it transfers 
to the customer. At contract inception, once the 
contract is determined to be within the scope 
of IFRS 15, Genmab assesses the goods and 
services promised within each contract and 
identifies as a performance obligation each good 
or service that is distinct. Revenue is recognized 
in the amount of the transaction price that is 
allocated to the respective performance obli-
gation when (or as) the performance obligation 
is satisfied.
Royalties: Certain of Genmab’s license and 
collaboration agreements include sales-based 
royalties based on the level of sales. The license 
has been deemed to be the predominant item to 
which the royalties relate under Genmab’s license 
and collaboration agreements. As a result, 
Genmab recognizes revenue when the related 
sales occur.

Genmab 2024 Annual Report

Reimbursement Revenue for R&D Services: 
Genmab’s research collaboration agreements 
include provisions for reimbursement or cost 
sharing for R&D services and payment for full 
time equivalents (“FTEs”) at contractual rates. 
R&D services are performed and satisfied over 
time given that the customer simultaneously 
receives and consumes the benefits provided 
by Genmab and revenue for research services 
is recognized over time rather than at a point 
in time.
Milestone Revenue: Certain of Genmab’s license 
and collaboration agreements include devel-
opment, regulatory and commercial milestone 
payments based on the level of sales. At the 
inception of each arrangement that includes 
milestone payments, Genmab evaluates whether 
the achievement of milestones is considered 
highly probable and estimates the amount to be 
included in the transaction price using the most 
likely amount method. If it is highly probable that 
a significant revenue reversal would not occur, 
the associated milestone value is included in the 
transaction price. Milestone payments that are 
not within the control of Genmab or the license 
and collaboration partner, such as regulatory 
approvals, are not considered probable of being 
achieved until those approvals are received. 
The transaction price is then allocated to each 
performance obligation on a relative stand-alone 
selling price basis, for which Genmab recognizes 
revenue as or when the performance obligations 
under the contract are satisfied. At the end of 
each subsequent reporting period, Genmab 
re-evaluates the probability of achievement of 
such development milestones and commercial 
milestones and any related constraint, and if 
necessary, adjusts its estimate of the overall 
transaction price. Any such adjustments are 
recorded on a cumulative catch-up basis, which 
would affect revenue and earnings in the period 
of adjustment. Under all of Genmab’s existing 
license and collaboration agreements, milestone 
payments have been allocated to the license 
transfer performance obligation.
License Revenue for Intellectual Property: If 
the license to Genmab’s functional intellectual 
property is determined to be distinct from the 
other performance obligations identified in the 
arrangement, Genmab recognizes revenues from 
non-refundable upfront fees allocated to the 
license at the point in time the license is trans-
ferred to the licensee and the licensee is able to 
use and benefit from the license. For licenses that 
are bundled with other promises, Genmab utilizes 
judgement to assess the nature of the combined 
performance obligation to determine whether 
the combined performance obligation is satisfied 
over time or at a point in time and, if over time, 
the appropriate method of measuring progress 
for purposes of recognizing revenue from non-­
refundable, upfront fees. Under all of Genmab’s 
existing license and collaboration agreements 
the license to functional intellectual property has 
been determined to be distinct from other perfor-
mance obligations identified in the agreement.
Collaboration Revenue: Collaboration revenue 
includes the result of profit sharing arrangements 
for the sale of commercial products by our collab-
oration partners. When Genmab’s collaboration 
partner is determined to be the principal in sales 
to end customers, Genmab’s share of profits for 
the sale of commercial products is included in 
collaboration revenue.
Net Product Sales: Revenue from the sale of 
goods is recognized when control is transferred 
to the customer and it is probable that Genmab 
will collect the consideration to which it is 
entitled for transferring the products. Control 
of the products is transferred at a single point 
in time which occurs upon delivery to the 
customer. The amount of sales to be recognized 
is based on the consideration Genmab expects 
to receive in exchange for its goods. When sales 
are recognized, an estimate for a variety of 
sales deductions is also recorded such as cash 
discounts, government rebates, chargebacks, 
wholesaler fees, other rebates and administrative 
fees, sales returns and allowances and other 
sales discounts. Sales deductions are estimated 
and recognized as a reduction of gross product 
sales to arrive at net product sales, by assessing 
the expected value of the sales deductions 
(variable consideration). Sales deductions are 
estimated and provided for at the time the related 
sales are recorded. Genmab’s estimates related 
to sales deductions require significant use of 
estimates as not all conditions are known at the 
time of sale. The estimates are based on analyses 
of existing contractual obligations, historical 
experience, drug product analogs and payer 
channel mix. Genmab considers the provisions 
established for sales deductions to be reason-
able and appropriate based on currently available 
information; however, the actual amount 
of deductions may differ from the amounts 
estimated by management as more information 
becomes available. Estimates will be assessed 
each period and adjusted as required based on 
updated information and actual experience.
When Genmab is determined to be the principal 
in sales to end customers, all product sales are 
included in net product sales in the Consolidated 
Statements of Comprehensive Income. As of 
December 31, 2024, all net product sales relate 
to sales of EPKINLY in the U.S. and Japan pursuant 
to the Collaboration Agreement with AbbVie.
Refer to Note 5.6 for detailed information 
regarding Genmab’s significant Research 
Collaborations, License Agreements and 
Collaborative Agreements.
Refer to Note 1.3 for management’s judgements 
and estimates related to revenue recognition.

Information about Geographical Areas
Genmab is managed and operated as one business unit, which is reflected in the organizational 
structure and internal reporting. No separate lines of business or separate business entities have been 
identified with respect to any licensed products, marketed products, product candidates or geograph-
ical markets and no segment information is currently prepared for internal reporting.
Accordingly, it has been concluded that it is not relevant to include segment disclosures in the financial 
statements as Genmab’s business activities are not organized on the basis of differences in related 
product and geographical areas.

Staff Costs
Wages and salaries, other social security costs, 
paid leave and bonuses, and other employee 
benefits are recognized in the financial year 
in which the employee performs the associ-
ated work.
Genmab’s pension plans are classified as defined 
contribution plans and, accordingly, no pension 
obligations are recognized in the balance sheet. 
Costs relating to defined contribution plans are 
included in the income statement in the period in 
which they are accrued, and outstanding contri-
butions are included in other payables.
Termination benefits are recognized as 
an expense, when Genmab is committed 
demonstrably, without realistic possibility 
of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan to 
terminate employment.

Corporate tax consists of current tax and the 
adjustment of deferred taxes during the year. 
The corporate tax expense was DKK 1,320 
million in 2024, DKK 1,285 million in 2023 
and DKK 1,493 million in 2022. Tax benefits of 
DKK 49 million in 2024, DKK 57 million in 2023 
and tax expenses of DKK 22 million in 2022, 
related to excess tax benefits for share-based 
compensation were recorded directly in share-
holders’ equity.
As a result of the ProfoundBio integration activ-
ities, Genmab utilized approximately DKK 2.2 
billion of previously unrecognized tax losses 
during 2024.
Genmab operates in multiple jurisdictions which 
have enacted new legislation to implement 
the global minimum top-up tax, which became 
effective on January 1, 2024. Under this legisla-
tion, the Company is liable to pay a top-up tax 
for the difference between its GloBE Effective 
Tax Rate per jurisdiction and the minimum rate of 
15 percent. The rules have no impact on the tax 
position of Genmab in 2024.

Genmab recognizes deferred tax assets if it 
is probable that sufficient taxable income will 
be available in the future. Management has 
considered future taxable income and applied 
its judgement in assessing whether deferred tax 
assets should be recognized. 
The difference between the deferred tax liability 
as of December 31, 2024 and the deferred tax 
liability acquired as part of the acquisition of 
ProfoundBio relates to the reestablishment of the 
deferred tax liability as a result of the transfer of 
intangible assets from ProfoundBio US to Genmab 
A/S during the fourth quarter of 2024.
As of December 31, 2024, Genmab had estimated 
gross unrecognized tax loss carryforwards in 
the Netherlands of DKK 0.7 billion to reduce 
future taxable income. As of December 31, 2023, 
Genmab had estimated gross unrecognized 
tax loss carryforwards in the U.S. and in the 
Netherlands of DKK 2.1 billion and DKK 0.5 billion, 
respectively. The tax losses in the Netherlands 
available as of December 31, 2024, can be carried 
forward indefinitely. 
  Accounting Policies
Corporate Tax
Corporate tax, which consists of current tax and 
deferred taxes for the year, is recognized in the 
income statement, except to the extent that the 
tax is attributable to items which directly relate 
to shareholders’ equity or other comprehen-
sive income.
Current tax assets and liabilities for current 
and prior periods are measured at the amounts 
expected to be recovered from or paid to the tax 
authorities.

Deferred Tax
Deferred tax accounting requires recognition 
of deferred tax on all temporary differences 
between the carrying amount of assets and 
liabilities and the tax base of such assets and 
liabilities. This includes the tax value of certain 
tax losses carried forward.
Deferred tax is calculated in accordance with 
the tax regulations in the local countries and the 
tax rates expected to be in force at the time the 
deferred tax is utilized. Changes in deferred tax 
as a result of changes in tax rates are recognized 
in the income statement.
Deferred tax assets resulting from temporary 
differences, including the tax value of losses to 
be carried forward, are recognized only to the 
extent that it is probable that future taxable profit 
will be available against which the differences 
can be utilized.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable 
temporary differences that arise when the 
carrying amount of an asset exceeds its tax basis 
or the carrying amount of a liability is less than 
its tax base.
  Management’s Judgements 
and Estimates
Deferred Tax
Genmab recognizes deferred tax assets if 
management assesses that these tax assets can 
be offset against positive taxable income within 
the foreseeable future. This judgement is made 
on an ongoing basis and is based on numerous 
factors, including actual results, budgets, and 
business plans for the coming years.
Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent 
upon a number of factors, including estimated 
future taxable earnings, the timing and amount of 
which are highly uncertain. A significant portion 
of Genmab’s future taxable income will be driven 
by future events that are highly susceptible to 
factors outside the control of Genmab including 
overall commercial growth , specific clinical 
outcomes, regulatory approvals, advancement 
of Genmab’s product pipeline and other matters. 
As such, changes in estimates of future taxable 
income could impact Genmab’s future taxable 
income in a positive or negative manner. 
As a result of the ProfoundBio integration 
activities, Genmab, based on current business 
plans and estimates of future taxable income, 
recognized a significant portion of previously 
unrecognized deferred tax assets during 2024.

Goodwill
The carrying amount of goodwill was DKK 
2,535 million as of December 31, 2024, due to 
the acquisition of ProfoundBio (refer to Note 5.5). 
No impairment of goodwill was recognized in 
2024 as the annual impairment test showed that 
the estimated recoverable amount exceeded the 
carrying amount of the single cash-generating 
unit (CGU) to which all of Genmab’s goodwill was 
allocated. There was no goodwill balance as of 
December 31, 2023.
  Accounting Policies
Research and Development Projects
Internal and subcontracted research costs are 
charged in full to research and development 
expenses in the Consolidated Statements of 
Comprehensive Income in the period in which 
they are incurred. Development costs are also 
expensed until regulatory approval is obtained or 
is probable. Genmab has no internally generated 
intangible assets from development, as the 
criteria for recognition of an intangible asset are 
not met.
Genmab acquires licenses and rights primarily 
to gain access to targets and technologies iden-
tified by third parties. Payments to third parties 
under collaboration and license agreements are 
assessed to determine whether such payments 
should be expensed as incurred as research 
and development expenses or capitalized as an 
intangible asset. Licenses and rights that meet 
the criteria for capitalization as intangible assets 
are measured at cost less accumulated amor-
tization and any impairment losses. Milestone 
payments related to capitalized licenses and 
rights are accounted for as an increase in the cost 
to acquire licenses and rights.
For acquired research and development projects, 
and intellectual property rights, including 
acquisition in a business combination, the 
likelihood of obtaining future commercial sales 
is reflected in the cost of the asset, and thus 
the probability recognition criteria is always 
considered to be satisfied. As the cost of 
acquired research and development projects can 
often be measured reliably, these projects fulfil 
the capitalization criteria as intangible assets 
on acquisition. Development costs incurred 
subsequent to acquisition are treated consistently 
with internal project development costs.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase 
price over the fair value of net identifiable assets 
acquired and liabilities assumed in a business 
combination accounted for by the acquisition 
method of accounting. Goodwill is allocated 
to each of the group’s CGU (or groups of CGUs) 
expected to benefit from the synergies of the 
combination. Genmab consists of one single CGU 
which represents its single operating segment.
Recognition and Measurement
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost 
and are subsequently measured at cost less any 
accumulated amortization and any impairment 
loss. Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to 
impairment testing.
For intellectual property rights acquired for 
research and development projects, upfront 
fees and acquisition costs are capitalized as the 
historical cost. Subsequent milestone payments 
payable on achievement of a contingent event will 
be capitalized when the contingent event being 
achieved is probable. Intangible assets acquired 
in a business combination are recognized at fair 
value at the acquisition date.
Amortization
Intangible assets with definite useful lives are 
amortized based on the straight-line method over 
their estimated useful lives. This corresponds 
to the legal duration or the economic useful life 
depending on which is shorter. The amortization 
of intellectual property rights, including IPR&D, 
commences after regulatory approval has been 
obtained or when assets are put in use.
Impairment
Goodwill and intangible assets not yet available 
for use (IPR&D) are tested for impairment when 
indicators of impairment exist. However, they are 
tested at least annually, irrespective of whether 
there is any indication that they may be impaired.
If circumstances or changes in Genmab’s oper-
ations indicate that the carrying amount of 
Goodwill, IPR&D or definite-lived intangible 
assets may not be recoverable, management 
performs an impairment test of the asset 
for impairment.
Amortization, impairment losses, and gains or 
losses on the disposal of other intangible assets 
related to licenses and rights are recognized 
in Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive 
Income as research and development expenses.
  Management’s Judgments 
and Estimates
Impairment Assessment of Goodwill 
and Other Intangible Assets
CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are 
tested for impairment at least annually, or more 
frequently when there is an indication that the 
unit may be impaired by assessing qualitative 
factors or performing a quantitative analysis. 
Goodwill is monitored for impairment at the 
operating segment level, which is the lowest 
level CGU to which goodwill is allocated and 
monitored by Management. Goodwill impairment 
tests are based on management’s estimate of 
recoverable amount determined as the greater 
of the fair value less cost to sell, or its value 
in use. Value in use is calculated based on a 
multiple applied on steady earnings from oper-
ations before tax generated from the CGU. If the 
carrying amount of goodwill exceeds the recov-
erable amount, any impairment is measured as 
the difference between the recoverable amount 
and the carrying amount. Any impairment is 
first allocated to reduce the carrying amount of 
goodwill and any exceeding amount is allocated 
pro-rata to Genmab’s other assets in the CGU 
in the scope of IAS 36 but not less than their 
recoverable amount. An impairment loss is 
recognized in the Consolidated Statements of 
Comprehensive Income when the impairment is 
identified. Impairments of goodwill are prohibited 
from future reversals. 
As permitted under IAS 36 (Impairment of 
Assets), use of a short-cut quantitative impair-
ment test may be relied on if conservative 
assumptions are utilized which would result in 
an underestimation of the recoverable amount. 
By applying a multiple of four on the previous 
twelve consecutive months operating profit 
before tax the estimated recoverable amount is 
higher than the carrying amount of the CGU. It is 
management’s assessment that a multiple of four 
is a conservative assumption compared to market 
observations. The operating profit before tax for 
the previous twelve consecutive months is based 
on recurring earnings and is considered a conser-
vative measure of earnings for the next four years 
compared to the budget and forecast prepared by 
the Group. Thus, management has concluded that 
there is no impairment on goodwill. As Genmab 
has a single CGU with a quoted market price of 
Financial Statements for the Genmab Group

Management’s Review
Other Information
Genmab 2024 Annual Report
Financial Statements

the entire Group (level 1 observable input), a 
high-level comparison between Genmab’s market 
capitalization and the recoverable amount was 
also performed to reaffirm the reasonableness 
of the short-cut approach to estimate recover-
able amount. The carrying amount of the single 
CGU includes Genmab’s net assets, less cash 
and marketable securities as returns on such 
balances are not included in operating profit 
before tax and therefore are not included in the 
recoverable amount either.
The basis for the review of IPR&D impairment 
is also the recoverable amount. If the carrying 
amount of an intangible asset is greater than 
the recoverable amount, the intangible asset 
is written down to the recoverable amount. An 
impairment loss is recognized in the Consolidated 
Statements of Comprehensive Income when the 
impairment is identified. Impairments on intan-
gible assets are reviewed at each reporting date 
for possible reversal.
Factors considered material that could trigger an 
impairment test include the following:
•	Development of a competing drug
•	Realized sales trending below predicted sales
•	Inconsistent or unfavorable clinical readouts
•	Changes in the legal framework covering 
patents, rights, and licenses
•	Advances in medicine and/or technology that 
affect the medical treatments
•	Adverse impact on reputation and/or 
brand names

  Accounting Policies
Property and equipment is comprised of 
leasehold improvements, assets under construc-
tion, and equipment, furniture, and fixtures, 
which are measured at cost less accumulated 
depreciation and any impairment losses.
The cost is comprised of the acquisition price and 
direct costs related to the acquisition until the 
asset is ready for use. Costs include direct costs 
and costs to subcontractors.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis 
to allocate the cost of the assets, net of any 
residual value, over the estimated useful lives, 
which are as follows:
Equipment, furniture, and fixtures
3–5 years
Leasehold improvements
15 years 
or the lease 
term, if shorter
Depreciation commences when the asset is 
available for use, including when it is in the 
location and condition necessary for it to be 
capable of operating in the manner intended by 
management. The useful lives and residual values 
are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate on a 
yearly basis. Assets under construction are not 
depreciated.
Impairment
If circumstances or changes in Genmab’s oper-
ations indicate that the carrying amount of 
property and equipment may not be recoverable, 
management performs an impairment test of 
the asset.
The basis for the performance of an impairment 
test is the recoverable amount of the asset, deter-
mined as the greater of the fair value less cost to 
sell or its value in use. Value in use is calculated 
as the net present value of future cash inflow 
expected to be generated from the asset.
If the carrying amount of an asset is greater than 
the recoverable amount, the asset is written 
down to the recoverable amount. An impairment 
loss is recognized in the Consolidated Statements 
of Comprehensive Income when the impairment 
is identified.

  Accounting Policies
All leases are recognized in the Consolidated 
Balance Sheets as a right-of-use (ROU) asset with 
a corresponding lease liability, except for short-
term leases in which the term is 12 months or 
less, or low-value leases.
ROU assets represent Genmab’s right to use an 
underlying asset for the lease term and lease 
liabilities represent Genmab’s obligation to 
make lease payments arising from the lease. The 
ROU asset is depreciated over the shorter of the 
asset’s useful life or the lease term on a straight-
line basis. In the Consolidated Statements of 
Comprehensive Income, depreciation of the 
ROU asset is recognized over the lease term 
in operating expenses and interest expenses 
related to the lease liability are classified in 
financial items.
Genmab determines if an arrangement is a lease 
at inception. Genmab leases various properties, 
vehicles, and IT equipment. Rental contracts are 
typically made for fixed periods. Lease terms are 
negotiated on an individual basis and contain a 
wide range of terms and conditions.
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are 
initially measured on a present value basis. 
Lease liabilities include the net present value 
of fixed payments, less any lease incentives 
receivable. As Genmab’s leases generally do not 
provide an implicit interest rate, Genmab uses 
an incremental borrowing rate based on the 
information available at the commencement date 
of the lease in determining the present value of 
lease payments. Lease terms utilized by Genmab 
may include options to extend or terminate the 
lease when it is reasonably certain that Genmab 
will exercise that option. In determining the 
lease term, management considers all facts and 
circumstances that create an economic incentive 
to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a 
termination option. Extension options (or periods 
after termination options) are only included in the 
lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to 
be extended.
ROU assets are measured at cost and include 
the amount of the initial measurement of the 
lease liability, any lease payments made at or 
before the commencement date less any lease 
incentives received, any initial direct costs, and 
restoration costs.
Payments associated with short-term 
leases and leases of low-value assets are 
recognized on a straight-line basis as an 
expense in the Consolidated Statements of 
Comprehensive Income.

Other investments are measured on initial 
recognition at fair value, and subsequently at 
fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized in 
the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive 
Income within financial income or expense.
Other investments primarily consist of 
investments in certain strategic investment 
funds. Genmab’s share of the fair value of 
these fund investments is determined based 
on the valuation of the underlying investments 
included in the fund. Investments in publicly 
traded equity securities included in these 
strategic investment funds are valued based 
at the most recent sale price or official closing 
price reported on the exchange or over-the-
counter market on which they trade, while 
investments in non-publicly traded equity 
securities are based on other factors, including 
but not limited to, type of the security, the size 
of the holding, the initial cost of the security, 
the price and extent of public trading in similar 
securities of the comparable companies, an 
analysis of the company’s or issuer’s financial 
statements and with respect to debt securities, 
the maturity and creditworthiness. As such, these 
fund investments have been characterized as 
Level 3 investments as fair values are based on 
significant unobservable inputs.

In 2024 and 2023, allowances related to write 
downs of excess and obsolete inventories 
were immaterial and recognized as expense 
within cost of product sales in the Consolidated 
Statements of Comprehensive Income.
Inventory write down in 2023 pertaining to 
pre-launch inventories of EPKINLY was also 
immaterial. The write down was recorded as 
research and development expense in Genmab’s 
Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive 
Income and was subsequently reversed upon 
receiving U.S. FDA approval during the second 
quarter of 2023.
  Accounting Policies
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost 
and net realizable value with costs determined 
on a first-in, first-out basis. Costs comprise 
direct and indirect costs relating to the manu-
facture of inventory mainly from third-party 
providers of manufacturing as well as costs 
related to internal resources and distribution and 
logistics. Genmab assesses the recoverability 
of capitalized inventories during each reporting 
period and will write down excess or obsolete 
inventories to their net realizable value in the 
period in which the impairment is identified. Write 
downs of inventory are included within Cost of 
product sales in the Consolidated Statements of 
Comprehensive Income.
Included in inventories are materials with the 
intended purpose of being made available 
for sale. If the materials are later used in the 
production of clinical products, the materials are 
charged to research and development expense 
when shipped to the clinical packaging site. 
Materials ordered exclusively to be used in 
Genmab’s research and development process 
(e.g., early research/clinical trials) are immedi-
ately expensed to research and development 
based on the relevant shipping terms (FOB desti-
nation/shipping point).
Inventory manufactured prior to regulatory 
approval of a product (prelaunch inventory) 
is written down to its net realizable value 
(that is the probable amount expected to be 
realized from its sale or use at the time of 
production). The amount of this write down 
is recognized in the Consolidated Statements 
of Comprehensive Income as research and 
development expenses. Once there is a high 
probability of regulatory approval being obtained 
for the product, inventory costs begin to be 
capitalized. Additionally, the write-down is 
reversed, up to no more than the original cost. 
The reversal of the write-down is recognized 
as a reduction to research and development 
expenses in the Consolidated Statements of 
Comprehensive Income.

During 2024 and 2023, there were no losses 
related to receivables and the credit risk on 
receivables is considered to be limited. The 
provision for expected credit losses was zero 
given that there have been no credit losses over 
the last three years and the limited credit risk due 
to high-quality nature with high credit ratings 
(top tier life science companies and major distrib-
utors) of Genmab’s customers are not likely to 
result in future default risk.
The receivables are mainly comprised of royalties, 
trade receivables, milestones and amounts due 
under collaboration agreements and are non-­
interest bearing receivables which are due less 
than one year from the balance sheet date.
Refer to Note 4.2 for additional informa-
tion about interest receivables and related 
credit risk.

  Accounting Policies
Initially, trade receivables are designated as 
financial assets measured at transaction price 
and other receivables are measured at fair value. 
Subsequently receivables are measured in the 
balance sheet at amortized cost, which generally 
corresponds to nominal value less expected 
credit losses.
Accounts receivable arising from product sales 
consists of amounts due from customers, net 
of customer allowances for chargebacks, cash 
and other discounts and estimated credit losses. 
Genmab’s contracts with customers have initial 
payment terms that range from 30 to 180 days.
Genmab utilizes a simplified approach to 
measuring expected credit losses and uses a 
lifetime expected loss allowance for all receiv-
ables. To measure the expected credit losses, 
receivables have been grouped based on credit 
risk characteristics and the days past due.
Prepayments include expenditures related 
to a future financial period. Prepayments are 
measured at nominal value.

An upfront payment of USD 750 million (DKK 
4,911 million) was received in July 2020 of which 
DKK 4,398 million was recognized as license 
revenue during 2020.
The revenue deferred at the initiation of the 
AbbVie agreement in June 2020 related to four 
product concepts to be identified and subject to 
a research agreement to be negotiated between 
Genmab and AbbVie.
During the first quarter of 2022, Genmab 
and AbbVie entered into the aforementioned 
research agreement that governs the research 
and development activities in regard to the 
product concepts.
As part of the continued evaluation of contract 
liabilities related to the AbbVie collaboration 
agreement, Genmab’s classification of contract 
liabilities reflects the current estimate of ­co-​
development activities as of December 31, 2024. 
Contract liabilities have been recognized as 
reimbursement revenue during the second half 
of 2024.

The current other payables are comprised of 
liabilities that are due less than one year from the 
balance sheet date and are in general not interest 
bearing and settled on an ongoing basis during 
the next financial year.
Non-current payables are measured at the 
present value of the expenditures expected to be 
required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax 
discount rate that reflects current market assess-
ments of the time value of money and the risks 
specific to the obligation. The increase in the 
liability due to passage of time is recognized as 
interest expense.
Accounts Payable
Accounts payable are measured in the 
Consolidated Balance Sheets at amortized cost.
Other Liabilities
Other liabilities primarily include accrued

Section 4
Capital Structure, Financial 
Risk and Related Items
This section includes disclosures 
related to how Genmab manages 
its capital structure, cash position 
and related risks and items. Genmab 
is primarily financed through 
partnership collaborations.
4.1	
Capital Management
Genmab’s goal is to maintain a strong capital 
base so as to maintain investor, creditor and 
market confidence, and to have adequate 
liquidity to support the continuous advancement 
of Genmab’s product pipeline and business in 
general. To achieve this goal Genmab invests 
in different liquidity tiers. To meet operational 
goals, Genmab invests in cash and cash 
equivalents (marketable securities). To ensure 
sufficient reserves, Genmab invests in short-term 
securities with an average duration of about 
six months, which serves as back-up liquidity 
for the operating tier. For strategic purposes, 
Genmab has short term investments to support 
the Company’s growth over the longer term. Most 
of Genmab’s cash and marketable securities are 
in USD due to having a larger USD expenditure 
base than DKK, which provides better matching 
of investment balances with actual expenditures. 
Genmab is primarily financed through revenues 
under various collaboration agreements and 
had, as of December 31, 2024, cash, and cash 
equivalents of DKK 9,858 million and marketable 
securities of DKK 11,243 million compared to 
DKK 14,867 million and DKK 13,268 million, 
respectively, as of December 31, 2023. Genmab’s 
cash and cash equivalents and marketable 
securities support the advancement of our 
product pipeline and operations.
The adequacy of our available funds will 
depend on many factors, including the level of 
DARZALEX and other royalty streams, progress 
in our research and development programs, the 
magnitude of those programs, our commitments 
to existing and new clinical collaborators, our 
ability to establish commercial and licensing 
arrangements, our capital expenditures, market 
developments, and any future acquisitions. 
Accordingly, Genmab may require additional 
funds and may attempt to raise additional funds 
through equity or debt financings, collaborative 
agreements with partners, or from other sources.
During the fourth quarter of 2024, Genmab 
entered into an unsecured three-year revolving 
credit facility (“Credit Facility”) of up to USD 
300 million with a syndicate of lenders. Genmab 
intends to use the Credit Facility to finance 
working capital needs, and for general corporate 
purposes, of Genmab A/S and its subsidiaries. 
The Credit Facility includes options to increase 
the size of the facility up to USD 500 million 
as well as the ability to extend for an addi-
tional two years. The Credit Facility contains 
certain customary financial covenants. As of 
December 31, 2024, there were no outstanding 
amounts due on, nor any usage of, the Credit 
Facility and Genmab was in compliance with all 
financial covenants.
The Board monitors the share and capital 
structure to ensure that Genmab’s capital 
resources support its strategic goals.
Neither Genmab A/S nor any of its subsid-
iaries are subject to externally imposed capital 
requirements.
4.2	
Financial Risk
The financial risks of Genmab are 
managed centrally.
The overall risk management guidelines have 
been approved by the Board of Directors 
and include the Group’s investment policy 
related to our marketable securities. The Group’s 
risk management guidelines are established 
to identify and analyze the risks faced by the 
Genmab Group, to set the appropriate risk 
limits and controls and to monitor the risks 
and adherence to limits. It is Genmab’s policy 
not to actively speculate in financial risks. The 
Group’s financial risk management is directed 
solely towards monitoring and reducing 
financial risks which are directly related to 
Genmab’s operations.
The primary objective of Genmab’s invest-
ment activities is to preserve capital and 
ensure liquidity with a secondary objective of 
maximizing the return derived from security 
investments without significantly increasing risk. 
Therefore, our investment policy includes among 
other items, guidelines and ranges for which 
investments (which are primarily shorter-term in 
nature) are considered to be eligible investments 
for Genmab and which investment parameters 
are to be applied, including maturity limitations 
and credit ratings. In addition, the policy includes 
specific diversification criteria and investment 
limits to minimize the risk of loss resulting from 
over-concentration of assets in a specific class, 
issuer, currency, country, or economic sector.
Genmab’s marketable securities are administered 
by external investment managers. The investment 
guidelines and managers are reviewed regularly 
to reflect changes in market conditions, Genmab’s 
activities and financial position. Genmab’s 
investment policy allows investments in debt 
rated BBB- or greater by S&P or Fitch and in debt 
rated Baa3 or greater by Moody’s. The policy also 
includes additional allowable investment types 
such as corporate debt, commercial paper, certif-
icates of deposit, and certain types of AAA rated 
asset-backed securities.

Financial Statements

In addition to the capital management and 
financing risk mentioned in Note 4.1, Genmab 
has identified the following key financial risk 
areas, which are mainly related to our marketable 
securities portfolio:
•	credit risk;
•	foreign currency risk; and
•	interest rate risk
All of Genmab’s marketable securities are traded 
in established markets. Given the current market 
conditions, all future cash inflows, including 
re-investments of proceeds from the disposal 
of marketable securities, are invested in highly 
liquid, investment grade securities. Refer to 
Note 4.4 for additional information regarding 
marketable securities.
Credit Risk
Genmab is exposed to credit risk and losses on 
marketable securities, bank deposits and receiv-
ables. The maximum credit exposure related 
to Genmab’s cash and cash equivalents and 
marketable securities was DKK 21,101 million 
as of December 31, 2024, compared to DKK 
28,135 million as of December 31, 2023. The 
maximum credit exposure to Genmab’s receiv-
ables was DKK 6,642 million as of December 31, 
2024 compared to DKK 5,009 million as of 
December 31, 2023.
Marketable Securities
To manage and reduce credit risks on our securi-
ties, Genmab’s policy is to ensure only securities 
from investment grade issuers are eligible for our 
portfolios. No issuer of marketable securities can 
be accepted if the issuer, at the time of purchase, 
does not have the credit quality equal to or better 
than the rating shown in the table below from 
at least one of the rating agencies. If an issuer 
is rated by more than one of the rating agencies 
listed below, the credit assessment is made 
against the lowest rating available for the issuer.

Genmab’s current portfolio is spread over a 
number of different securities with a focus on 
liquidity and security. As of December 31, 2024, 
71% of Genmab’s marketable securities were 
long-term A rated or higher, or short-term A-1/P-1 
rated by S&P, Moody’s or Fitch compared to 72% 
as of December 31, 2023. The total value of 
marketable securities amounted to DKK 11,243 
million at the end of 2024 compared to DKK 
13,268 million at the end of 2023.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
To reduce the credit risk on our bank deposits, 
Genmab’s policy is only to invest its cash 
deposits with highly rated financial institutions. 
Currently, these financial institutions have a 
short-term Fitch and S&P rating of at least F-1 
and A-1, respectively. In addition, Genmab 
maintains bank deposits at a level necessary to 
support the short-term funding requirements 
of Genmab. The total value of bank deposits 
including AAA rated money market funds and 
short-term marketable securities classified as 
cash equivalents amounted to DKK 9,858 million 
as of December 31, 2024 compared to DKK 
14,867 million at the end of 2023. The decrease 
was primarily the result of cash used to acquire 
ProfoundBio in the second half of 2024.
Receivables
The credit risk related to our receivables is not 
significant based on the high-quality nature of 
Genmab’s collaboration partners. As disclosed 
in Note 2.2, J&J, Novartis, Roche, AbbVie and 
BioNTech are Genmab’s primary partners in 
which receivables are established for royalties, 
milestone revenue and reimbursement revenue. 
These are long-standing relationships and 
Genmab does not have a history of writing off 
receivables from collaboration partners.
Foreign Currency Risk
Genmab’s presentation currency is the DKK; 
however, Genmab’s revenues and expenses are 
in a number of different currencies. Consequently, 
there is a substantial risk of exchange rate fluctu-
ations having an impact on Genmab’s cash flows, 
profit (loss) and/or financial position in DKK.
The majority of Genmab’s revenue is generated 
in USD. Exchange rate changes to the USD will 
result in changes to the translated value of future 
net profit before tax and cash flows. Genmab’s 
revenue in USD was 79% of total revenue in 2024 
as compared to 86% in 2023 and 89% in 2022.
Under our license agreement with J&J for 
DARZALEX, for purposes of calculating royalties 
due to Genmab, DARZALEX net sales for non-U.S. 
dollar denominated currencies are translated to 
U.S. dollars at a specified annual Currency Hedge 
Rate. Movements in foreign exchanges against the 
annual Currency Hedge Rate will result in changes 
to royalties due to Genmab impacting net profit 
before tax and cash flows.
There is also exposure that exchange rate fluctu-
ations may impact equity as part of the currency 
translation adjustments required to convert the 
investments in foreign subsidiaries from their 
respective functional currencies to the presen-
tation currency during consolidation, however 
any such fluctuations would be immaterial. The 
foreign subsidiaries are not significantly affected 
by currency risks as both revenues and expenses 
are primarily settled in the foreign subsidiaries’ 
functional currencies.
Foreign currency risk is primarily concentrated 
at the Genmab A/S level as transactions with 
subsidiaries are primarily in the functional 
currency of the subsidiary. To manage and reduce 
this foreign currency risk, Genmab maintains 
a large portion of its investment portfolio in 
marketable securities in USD (approximately 
76%) as well as a portion of our investment 
portfolio in DKK, EUR, and GBP denominated 
securities as a natural partial hedge of Genmab 
A/S’ liability exposures in these currencies.
Assets and Liabilities in Foreign Currency
Genmab’s marketable securities denominated in 
USD, DKK, EUR, and GBP as a percentage of total 
marketable securities were as follows:

Genmab’s USD currency exposure is mainly 
related to cash and cash equivalents, marketable 
securities, and receivables related to our collab-
orations with J&J, AbbVie, and Roche. Significant 
changes in the exchange rate of USD to DKK 
could cause net profit before tax to change 
materially as gains and losses are recognized in

Genmab 2024 Annual Report
Financial Statements

the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive 
Income. Based on the amount of assets and 
liabilities denominated in USD as of December 31, 
2024 and 2023, a 10% increase/decrease in the 
USD to DKK exchange rate is estimated to impact 
Genmab’s net profit before tax by approximately 
DKK 1.9 billion and DKK 2.7 billion, respectively. 
The analysis assumes that all other variables, in 
particular interest rates, remain constant. The 
movements in the income statement and equity 
arise from monetary items (cash and cash equiv-
alents, marketable securities, receivables, and 
liabilities) where the functional currency of the 
entity differs from the currency that the monetary 
items are denominated in.
Genmab’s EUR exposure is mainly related to our 
marketable securities, receivables under our 
collaboration with BioNTech, and other costs 
denominated in EUR. Since the introduction of 
the EUR in 1999, Denmark has committed to 
maintaining a central rate of 7.46 DKK to the EUR. 
This rate may fluctuate within a +/- 2.25% band. 
Should Denmark’s policy toward the EUR change, 
the DKK values of our EUR denominated assets 
and costs could be materially different compared 
to what is calculated and reported under the 
existing Danish policy toward the DKK/EUR. As 
of December 31, 2024 and 2023, Genmab’s EUR 
exposure is not material.
Genmab’s GBP currency exposure is mainly related 
to contracts and marketable securities denomi-
nated in GBP. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, 
Genmab’s GBP exposure is not material.
Interest Rate Risk
Genmab’s exposure to interest rate risk is 
primarily related to marketable securities, as 
Genmab currently does not have significant 
­interest-bearing debts.
Marketable Securities
The securities in which the Group has invested 
bear interest rate risk, as a change in market-­
derived interest rates may cause fluctuations in 
the fair value of the investments. In accordance 
with the objective of the investment activities, 
the portfolio of securities is monitored on a total 
return basis.
To control and minimize the interest rate risk, 
Genmab maintains an investment portfolio in 
a variety of securities with a relatively short 
effective duration with both fixed and variable 
interest rates.
A sensitivity analysis was performed on 
Genmab’s marketable securities, and based on 
exposures in 2023 and 2024, a hypothetical 
+/- 1% interest rate change would not have 
resulted in a material change in the fair values 
of these financial instruments. Due to the short-
term nature of the current investments and 
to the extent that Genmab is able to hold the 
investments to maturity, the current exposure to 
changes in fair value due to interest rate changes 
is considered to be insignificant compared to the 
fair value of the portfolio.

Marketable Securities
Substantially all fair market values are deter-
mined by reference to external sources using 
unadjusted quoted prices in established markets 
for our marketable securities (Level 1).
Other Investments
Other investments primarily consist of invest-
ments in certain strategic investment funds. 
Genmab’s share of the fair value of these 
fund investments is determined based on the 
valuation of the underlying investments included 
in the fund. Investments in publicly traded equity 
securities included in these strategic investment 
funds are valued based at the most recent sale 
price or official closing price reported on the 
exchange or over-the-counter market on which 
they trade, while investments in non-publicly 
traded equity securities are based on other 
factors, including but not limited to, type of the 
security, the size of the holding, the initial cost 
of the security, the price and extent of public 
trading in similar securities of the comparable 
companies, an analysis of the company’s or 
issuer’s financial statements and with respect 
to debt securities, the maturity and creditwor-
thiness. As such, these fund investments have 
been characterized as Level 3 investments as 
fair values are not entirely based on observable 
market data.
There were no transfers into or out of Level 3 
during 2024 or 2023. Acquisitions (capital calls), 
fair value changes and foreign currency changes 
on Level 3 investments in 2024 and 2023 were

  Accounting Policies
Classification Of Categories Of 
Financial Assets And Liabilities
Genmab classifies its financial assets held into 
the following measurement categories:
•	those to be measured subsequently at fair value 
(either through other comprehensive income, or 
through profit or loss), and
•	those to be measured at amortized cost.
The classification depends on the business 
model for managing the financial assets and the 
contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and 
losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or 
other comprehensive income.
Genmab reclassifies debt investments only 
when its business model for managing those 
assets changes.
Further details about the accounting policy for 
each of the categories are outlined in the respec-
tive notes.
Fair Value Measurement
Genmab measures financial instruments, such 
as marketable securities, at fair value at each 
balance sheet date. Management assessed 
that the fair value of financial assets and liabil-
ities measured at amortized cost such as bank 
deposits, receivables and other payables approx-
imate their carrying amounts largely due to the 
short-term maturities of these instruments.
Fair value is the price that would be received 
to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in 
an orderly transaction between market partic-
ipants at the measurement date. The fair value 
measurement is based on the presumption that 
the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the 
liability takes place either:
•	In the principal market for the asset or 
liability, or
•	In the absence of a principal market, in the most 
advantageous market for the asset or liability.
The principal or the most advantageous market 
must be accessible by Genmab.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured 
using the assumptions that market participants 
would use when pricing the asset or liability, 
assuming that market participants act in their 
economic best interest.
Genmab uses valuation techniques that are 
appropriate in the circumstances and for which 
sufficient data are available to measure fair value, 
maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs 
and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
For financial instruments that are measured in 
the balance sheet at fair value, IFRS 13 requires 
disclosure of fair value measurements by level of 
the following fair value measurement hierarchy:
•	Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active 
markets for identical assets or liabilities
•	Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices 
included within level 1 that are observable for 
the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as 
prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices)
•	Level 3 — Inputs for the asset or liability that are 
not based on observable market data (that is, 
unobservable inputs).
For assets and liabilities that are recognized 
in the financial statements at fair value on a 
recurring basis, Genmab determines whether 
transfers have occurred between levels in the 
hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based 
on the lowest level input that is significant to the 
fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of 
each reporting period. Any transfers between the 
different levels are carried out at the end of the 
reporting period.

  Accounting Policies
Marketable securities are debt instruments 
that consist of investments in securities with 
a maturity of 90 days or greater at the time of 
acquisition. Measurement of marketable securi-
ties depends on the business model for managing 
the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the 
asset. Genmab assesses its debt instruments to 
determine classification based on the following 
measurement categories:
•	Amortized cost: Assets that are held for 
collection of contractual cash flows, where 
those cash flows represent solely payments 
of principal and interest, are measured at 
amortized cost. Interest income from these 
financial assets is included in finance income 
using the effective interest rate method. 
Any gain or loss arising on derecognition 
is recognized directly in profit or loss and 
presented in other financial income or 
expenses, together with foreign exchange 
gains and losses. Impairment losses, when 
material, are presented as a separate line 
item in the Consolidated Statements of 
Comprehensive Income.
•	Fair value through other comprehensive income 
(FVOCI): Assets that are held to achieve an 
objective by both collecting contractual cash 
flows as well as selling financial assets and 
where those cash flows represent solely 
payments of principal and interest, are 
measured at FVOCI. Changes in fair value on a 
debt investment that is subsequently measured 
at FVOCI are recognized in other comprehensive 
income. Impairment gains and losses, interest 
income and foreign exchange gains and losses 
are recognized in the Consolidated Statements 
of Comprehensive Income and presented within 
financial income or expenses in the period in 
which they arise.
•	Fair value through profit and loss (FVPL): Assets 
that do not meet the criteria for amortized 
cost or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. A gain or 
loss on a debt investment that is subsequently 
measured at FVPL is recognized in the 
Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive 
Income and presented net within financial 
income or expenses in the period in which 
it arises.
Genmab’s portfolio is managed and evaluated 
on a fair value basis in accordance with its stated 
investment guidelines and the information 
provided internally to management. This business 
model does not meet the criteria for amortized 
cost or FVOCI and as a result marketable securi-
ties are measured at FVPL. This classification is 
consistent with the prior year’s classification.
Genmab invests its cash in deposits with major 
financial institutions, in AAA rated money market 
funds, Danish mortgage bonds, investment grade 
rated corporate debt, commercial paper, certifi-
cates of deposit, certain types of AAA rated asset 
backed securities, U.S. Agency bonds, and notes 
issued by the Danish, European and U.S. govern-
ments. The securities can be purchased and sold 
using established markets.
Transactions are recognized at the trade date.

Interest Income
Interest income was DKK 995 million in 2024 compared to DKK 982 million in 2023 and DKK 324 
million in 2022. The increase of DKK 13 million, or 1% from 2023 to 2024, was primarily driven by 
the higher cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities in the first half of 2024 compared 
to 2023, almost entirely offset by lower cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities in the 
second half of 2024 compared to 2023 as a result of liquidating marketable securities and using cash 
to purchase ProfoundBio. The increase of 658 million, or 203% from 2022 to 2023 was primarily 
driven by higher effective interest rates in the U.S., Europe, and Denmark.
Foreign Exchange Rate Gains and Losses
Foreign exchange rate gains, net of DKK 1,339 million in 2024 compared to foreign exchange rate 
loss, net of DKK 889 million in 2023 was primarily driven by foreign exchange movements impacting 
Genmab’s USD denominated marketable securities and cash and cash equivalents. Foreign exchange 
rate loss, net of DKK 889 million in 2023 compared to foreign exchange rate gain, net of DKK 1,051 
million in 2022 was primarily driven by foreign exchange movements impacting Genmab’s USD 
denominated marketable securities and cash and cash equivalents; in particular, the USD/DKK foreign 
exchange rates were as follows for each period:

Marketable Securities Gains and Losses
Gain on marketable securities, net was 
DKK 217 million in 2024 compared to gain on 
marketable securities, net of DKK 319 million in 
2023 and loss on marketable securities, net of 
DKK 361 million in 2022. The decrease in gain of 
DKK 102 million, or 32% from 2023 to 2024 was 
primarily driven by the decrease in marketable 
securities in the first half of 2024 to fund the 
acquisition of ProfoundBio and share repurchase 
as well as changing interest rate outlooks for 
the U.S., primarily in the fourth quarter of 2024. 
The increase in gain of DKK 680 million, or 188% 
from 2022 to 2023, was primarily driven by 
interest rate outlooks for the U.S. and Europe.
Other Investments
Gains on other investments, net were DKK 30 
million in 2024, losses on other investments, 
net were DKK 26 million in 2023 and DKK 297 
million in 2022. The net gains and losses in 2024 
and 2023 were primarily driven by changes in 
fair value of Genmab’s investments in certain 
strategic investment funds. The losses in 2022 
were primarily driven by the change in fair value 
of Genmab’s investment in common shares 
of CureVac.
  Accounting Policies

as well as foreign exchange rate adjustments 
and gains and losses on marketable securities 
(designated as FVPL) and realized gains and 
losses and write-downs of other securities and 
equity interests.

and losses on marketable securities and other

Share-Based Instruments
Restricted Stock Unit Program
Genmab A/S has established an RSU program 
(equity-settled share-based payment transac-
tions) as an incentive for Genmab’s employees, 
members of the Executive Management, and 
members of the Board of Directors. RSUs granted 
to Executive Management are performance-­
based (PSUs).­
RSUs are granted by the Board of Directors. RSU 
grants to members of the Board of Directors 
and members of the registered Executive 
Management are subject to the Remuneration 
Policy adopted at the Annual General Meeting.
See the table below for a summary of key terms of Genmab’s RSU programs:
RSUs Granted in Periods
Key Terms
December 2019–February 2021
From February 2021
Grants
RSUs are granted at no cost to employees. Number of shares granted 
is determined based on closing share price on the grant date.
Vesting 
(Settlement)
Cliff vesting — RSUs become fully vested on the first banking day of the month following a 
period of three years from the grant date. The three year cliff vesting also applies to PSUs, 
while also subject to the degree of fulfilment of the applicable performance criteria.
After RSUs vest, the holder receives one share in Genmab A/S for each RSU granted. In 
jurisdictions in which Genmab as an employer is required to withhold tax and settle with 
the tax authority on behalf of the employee, Genmab withholds the number of RSUs that 
are equal to the monetary value of the employee’s tax obligation from the total number 
of RSUs that otherwise would have been issued to the employee upon vesting (“net 
settlement”). Genmab A/S may at its sole discretion in extraordinary circumstances 
choose to make a cash settlement instead of delivering shares.
Leaver
Leavers — Forfeit all unvested RSUs except 
when due to retirement, death, serious 
sickness, or serious injury, in which case 
granted but not yet vested RSUs shall 
remain outstanding and will be settled in 
accordance with their terms.
Notwithstanding the above, the December 
2020 RSU grant to members of the Board 
was made subject to pro-rata vesting upon 
termination of board services.
Employees and Executive 
Management — RSUs remain outstanding 
and vest accordingly when the employment 
relationship is terminated by Genmab 
without cause.
Good-Leavers1 — May maintain a pro-rata 
portion of unvested RSUs.
Bad-Leavers2 — Forfeit all unvested RSUs.
Death — Forfeit all unvested RSUs.
Voluntary leavers forfeit unvested RSUs.
1.	“Good-Leaver” — Dismissal without cause or termination of employment due to Genmab’s material breach of the RSU 
or Warrant holder’s employment terms, or if the participant is a member of the Board, if the membership of the Board 
ceases for any other reason than as a result of the participant’s death.
2.	“Bad-leaver” — Dismissed for cause or during the employment probationary period.
The RSU program contains anti-dilution provisions if changes occur in Genmab’s share capital prior 
to the vesting date and provisions to accelerate vesting of RSUs in the event of change of control as 
defined in the RSU program.

  Accounting Policies
Share-Based Compensation Expenses
Share-based compensation expense is 
recognized in the Consolidated Statements 
of Comprehensive Income based on the 
estimated fair value of the awards at grant date. 
Subsequently, the fair value is not remeasured. 
The expense recognized reflects an estimate 
of the number of awards expected to vest after 
taking into consideration an estimate of award 
forfeitures based on historical experience and 
is recognized on a straight-line basis over the 
requisite service period, which is the vesting 
period. Genmab reassesses its estimate of the 
number of shares expected to vest periodically.
Management expectations related to the achieve-
ment of performance goals associated with 
performance-based RSU grants are assessed 
periodically, and that assessment is used to 
determine whether such grants are expected 
to vest or if any revision to the current estimate 
is required. Genmab recognizes the impact of 
the revised estimate of the number of awards 
expected to vest, if any, as an adjustment to the 
income statement over the remaining vesting 
period. If performance-based milestones related 
to performance-based RSU grants are not met 
or not expected to be met, any share-based 
compensation expense recognized to date asso-
ciated with grants that are not expected to vest 
will be reversed.
Share-based compensation expenses represent 
calculated values of warrants, RSUs and 
­performance-​based RSUs granted and do not 
represent actual cash expenditures. A corre-
sponding amount is recognized in shareholders’ 
equity as the warrant, RSU and performance-​
based RSU programs are designated as 
equity-settled share-based payment transactions.
The fair value of each RSU and performance-­
based RSU granted during the year are calculated 
using the closing share price on the grant date. 
Below is a description on how the fair value of 
warrants is measured and the estimates involved.
  Management’s Judgements 
and Estimates
Share-Based Compensation Expenses
The fair value of each warrant granted during the 
year is calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing 
model. This pricing model requires the input of 
subjective assumptions such as:
•	The expected stock price volatility, which is 
based upon the historical volatility of Genmab’s 
stock price;
•	The risk-free interest rate, which is 
determined as the interest rate on Danish 
government bonds (bullet issues) with an 
average maturity of five years;
•	The expected life of warrants, which is based 
on vesting terms, expected rate of exercise and 
life terms in the current warrant program.
These assumptions can vary over time and can 
change the fair value of future warrants granted.
Valuation Assumptions for Warrants Granted in 2024, 2023 and 2022
The fair value of each warrant granted during the year is calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing 
model with the following assumptions:

Severance Payments
In the event Genmab terminates the service 
agreements with any member of the Executive 
Management team without cause, Genmab is 
obliged to pay his/her existing salary for one or 
two years after the end of the one-year notice 
period. However, in the event of termination by 
Genmab (unless for cause) or by any member of 
Executive Management as a result of a change 
of control of Genmab, Genmab is obliged to pay 
compensation equal to his/her existing total 
salary (including benefits) for up to two years 
in addition to the notice period. The total value 
of remuneration relating to the notice period for 
new members of Executive Management cannot 
exceed two years of remuneration, including 
all components of the remuneration. In case of 
the termination of the service agreements of 
the Executive Management without cause, the 
total impact on Genmab’s financial position is 
estimated to be approximately DKK 120 million 
as of December 31, 2024 (2023: DKK 103 million, 
2022: DKK 82 million).

due and payable only upon the achievement 
of certain development, clinical, regulatory 
or commercial milestones. The events trig-
gering such payments or obligations have not 
yet occurred.
In addition to the above obligations, Genmab 
enters into a variety of agreements and financial 
commitments in the normal course of business. 
The terms generally allow Genmab the option 
to cancel, reschedule and adjust our require-
ments based on our business needs prior to the 
delivery of goods or performance of services. It 
is not possible to predict the maximum potential 
amount of future payments under these agree-
ments due to the conditional nature of our 
obligations and the unique facts and circum-
stances involved in each particular agreement.

Acquisition of Businesses
On May 21, 2024 (Acquisition Date), Genmab 
completed the previously announced acquisition 
of all of the outstanding shares of ProfoundBio, 
resulting in ProfoundBio becoming a wholly 
owned subsidiary of Genmab. The acquisition 
of ProfoundBio gave Genmab worldwide rights 
to three candidates in clinical development, 
including ProfoundBio’s lead drug candidate, 
rinatabart sesutecan (Rina-S). In addition, 
Genmab acquired ProfoundBio’s novel ADC 
technology platforms. Rina-S is a clinical-stage, 
FRαtargeted, TOPO1 ADC, which was in Phase 2 
of a Phase 1/2 clinical trial at the time of the 
acquisition, for the treatment of ovarian cancer 
and other FRα-expressing solid tumors. Based 
on the data from the ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical 
trial Genmab intends to broaden the development 
plans for Rina-S within ovarian cancer and other 
FRαexpressing solid tumors. In January 2024, the 
U.S. FDA granted Fast Track designation to Rina-S 
for the treatment of patients with FRα-expressing 
high-grade serous or endometrioid platinum-­
resistant ovarian cancer.
In addition to payment of USD 1.72 billion 
(DKK 11.80 billion) for all of the outstanding 
shares of ProfoundBio, Genmab also made a 
USD 199 million (DKK 1,368 million) payment 
to holders of outstanding ProfoundBio equity 
awards for settlement of such vested and 
non-vested awards. Of the USD 199 million (DKK 
1,368 million) payment, USD 187 million (DKK 
1,289 million) related to the portion of awards 
where the vesting period was completed prior to 
the Acquisition Date. This portion of the payment 
was therefore determined to be attributable 
to the pre-combination period and included in 
purchase consideration. The remaining USD 
11 million (DKK 79 million) payment related 
to the portion of awards with future vesting 
conditions, and therefore is attributable to post-­
combination services. The amount attributable to 
the post-combination service does not form part 
of the consideration and was therefore instead 
recognized as Acquisition and integration related 
charges in Genmab’s Consolidated Statements of 
Comprehensive Income.
The acquisition has been accounted for using the 
acquisition method of accounting which requires 
that assets acquired and liabilities assumed 
be recognized at their fair values as of the 
Acquisition Date and consolidated into Genmab’s 
Consolidated Balance Sheets. The results of 
operations for ProfoundBio have been included in 
Genmab’s consolidated financial statements from 
the Acquisition Date. A fair value measurement 
has been performed and the purchase price has 
been allocated to intangible assets, associated 
deferred tax liabilities, other assets and liabili-
ties, as well as goodwill being the excess value 
of the purchase price over the fair value of assets 
acquired and liabilities assumed (the purchase 
price allocation). Adjustments may be applied to 
the purchase price allocation for a period of up to 
12 months from the Acquisition Date. During the 
fourth quarter of 2024, the Company recorded 
a measurement period adjustment impacting 
non-current deferred tax liabilities and goodwill 
that was not material. The total consideration for 
the acquisition of ProfoundBio is summarized 
as follows:

The carrying values of other current assets, 
property and equipment, other non-current 
assets and other current liabilities were deter-
mined to approximate their fair values.
The fair value assigned to acquired IPR&D, which 
was calculated using the multi-period excess 
earnings method of the income approach, was 
based on the present value of expected after-tax 
cash flows attributable to Rina-S, which was in 
Phase 1/2 testing. The present value of expected 
after-tax cash flows obtainable from Rina-S and 
assigned to IPR&D was determined by estimating 
the after-tax costs to complete development of 
Rina-S into a commercially viable product, esti-
mating future revenue and ongoing expenses to 
produce, support and sell Rina-S, on an after-tax 
basis, and discounting the resulting net cash 
flows to present value. The revenue and costs 
projections used were reduced based on the 
probability that compounds at similar stages of 
development will become commercially viable 
products. The rate utilized to discount the net 
cash flows to their present value reflects the 
risk associated with the future earnings attrib-
utable to the intangible asset. Acquired IPR&D 
will be accounted for as an intangible asset not 
yet available for use until regulatory approval 
in a major market is received or development is 
discontinued.
The fair value of the technology platform intan-
gible asset was calculated using the relief from 
royalty method of the income approach. This 
method includes assigning value based on the 
economic savings from owning, rather than 
in-licensing, the technology platform intangible 
asset supported by observable market data for 
peer companies, then discounting the resulting 
probability adjusted net post-tax cash flows 
using a discount rate commensurate with the risk 
associated with the future income or cost savings 
attributable to the intangible asset.
The significant assumptions used to estimate 
the value of the acquired intangible assets 
include discount rates and certain assumptions 
that form the basis of future cash flows (such as 
probabilities of technical and regulatory success, 
revenue growth rates, operating margins, and 
royalty rates).
The excess of purchase price over the fair value 
amounts assigned to identifiable assets acquired 
and liabilities assumed represents the goodwill 
amount resulting from the acquisition. The 
goodwill recorded as part of the acquisition is 
attributable to the intangible assets that do not 
qualify for separate recognition at the time of the 
acquisition, assembled workforce and deferred 
tax consequences of the IPR&D and technology 
platform intangible asset recorded for financial 
statement purposes. Genmab does not expect 
any portion of this goodwill to be deductible for 
tax purposes. The goodwill attributable to the 
acquisition has been recorded as a non-current 
asset in Genmab’s Consolidated Balance Sheets 
and is not amortized, but is subject to review for 
impairment annually. Refer to Note 3.1 for further 
details related to the accounting for goodwill.
From the Acquisition Date through December 31, 
2024, Genmab’s Consolidated Statements of 
Comprehensive Income include no revenue and

related charges incurred from the Acquisition Date 
through December 31, 2024, which are comprised of 
professional fees incurred to assist with the integration 
of ProfoundBio into Genmab’s operations post-acqui-
sition. Additionally, prior to the Acquisition Date, Genmab 
recorded DKK 113 million in Acquisition and integration 
related charges in Genmab’s Consolidated Statements 
of Comprehensive Income related to professional due 
diligence procedures in connection with the acquisition 
of ProfoundBio. The DKK 113 million of Acquisition 
and integration related charges incurred prior to the 
Acquisition Date and the DKK 187 million of Acquisition 
and integration charges incurred from the Acquisition 
Date through December 31, 2024 total DKK 300 million

  Accounting Policies
Business Combinations
The acquisition method of accounting is used 
to account for all acquisitions where the target 
company meets the definition of a business in 
accordance with IFRS 3 (Business Combinations). 
The purchase price for a business is comprised 
of the fair value of the assets transferred and 
liabilities owned to the former owners, including 
option holders, of the acquired business and the 
fair value of any asset or liability resulting from

a contingent consideration arrangement. Any 
amount of the purchase price which effectively 
comprises a settlement of a pre-existing relation-
ship is not part of the exchange for the acquiree 
and is therefore not included in the consider-
ation for the purpose of applying the acquisition 
method. Settlements of pre-existing relationships 
are accounted for as separate transactions in 
accordance with the relevant IFRS standards.
Identifiable assets and liabilities and contin-
gent liabilities assumed are measured at fair 
value on the date of acquisition by applying 
relevant valuation methods. Goodwill is recog-
nized as the excess of purchase price over the 
fair value of net identifiable assets acquired 
and liabilities assumed. Acquisition-related 
charges are expensed as incurred and included 
within Acquisition and integration related 
charges in the Consolidated Statements of 
Comprehensive Income.
  Management’s Judgements 
and Estimates — Other Intangible 
Assets and Goodwill
Fair Value and Impairment Assessment of 
Other Intangible Assets and Goodwill
The application of the acquisition method 
involves the use of significant estimates because 
the identifiable net assets of the acquiree are 
recognized at their fair values for which observ-
able market prices are typically not available. This 
is particularly relevant for intangible assets which 
require use of valuation techniques typically 
based on estimates of present value of future 
uncertain cash flows. The significant assump-
tions used to estimate the value of the acquired 
intangible assets include discount rates and 
certain assumptions that form the basis of future 
cash flows (such as probabilities of technical 
and regulatory success, revenue growth rates, 
operating margins, and royalty rates).

Collaborations and Licenses
Collaborations
Genmab enters into collaborations with 
biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies 
to advance the development and commercial-
ization of Genmab’s product candidates and to 
supplement its internal pipeline. Genmab seeks 
collaborations that will allow Genmab to retain 
significant future participation in product sales 
through either profit-sharing or royalties paid 
on net sales. Below is an overview of certain of 
Genmab’s collaborations that have had, or are 
expected in the near term to have, a significant 
impact on financial results.
J&J (Daratumumab/DARZALEX)
In 2012, Genmab entered into a global license, 
development and commercialization agreement 
with J&J for daratumumab (marketed for the 
treatment of certain multiple myeloma indica-
tions as DARZALEX for IV administration and as 
DARZALEX FASPRO in the U.S. and DARZALEX 
SC in Europe for SC administration). Under this 
agreement, J&J is fully responsible for devel-
oping and commercializing daratumumab, and 
all costs associated therewith. Genmab receives 
tiered royalty payments between 12% and 
20% based on J&J’s annual net product sales 
with J&J reducing such royalty payments for 
Genmab’s share of J&J’s royalty payments made 
to Halozyme. In addition, the royalties payable 
by J&J are limited in time and subject to reduction 
on a country-by-country basis for customary 
reduction events, including for lack of Genmab 
patent coverage or upon patent expiration or 
invalidation in the relevant country and upon the 
first commercial sale of a biosimilar product in 
the relevant country (for as long as the biosim-
ilar product remains for sale in that country). 
Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, J&J’s 
obligation to pay royalties to us will expire on a 
country-by-country basis on the later of the date 
that is 13 years after the first commercial sale 
of daratumumab in such country or upon the 
expiration or invalidation of the last-to-expire 
relevant Genmab patent covering daratumumab 
in such country. The first U.S., European and 
Japanese sales of daratumumab occurred in 
2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. We have 
issued patents and pending patent applications 
covering daratumumab in numerous jurisdictions, 
including patents issued in the U.S., Europe 
and Japan. J&J owns a separate patent portfolio 
related to the subcutaneous formulation of dara-
tumumab used in DARZALEX FASPRO/DARZALEX 
SC, but a binding arbitration determined that 
we are not entitled to royalties based on these 
separate patents.
Our issued U.S., European and Japanese patents 
covering daratumumab, after giving effect to 
issued U.S., European and Japanese patent 
term extensions and supplementary protection 
certificates, expire in 2029, 2031 and begin to 
expire in 2030, respectively. Assuming constant 
underlying sales of DARZALEX, we expect that 
our royalties from sales of DARZALEX will begin to 
decline materially in 2029 following expiration of 
our U.S. patent rights on daratumumab. Genmab 
is also eligible to receive certain additional 
payments in connection with development, regu-
latory and sales milestones.
In September 2020, Genmab commenced arbi-
tration against J&J with respect to two different 
provisions of our license agreement for dara-
tumumab, both relating to royalties payable to 
Genmab on net sales of daratumumab (marketed 
as DARZALEX for IV administration and as 
DARZALEX FASPRO in the U.S. and as DARZALEX 
SC in Europe for SC administration). In April 2022, 
the arbitral tribunal issued an award in that arbi-
tration denying both of Genmab’s claims. Genmab 
did not seek review of the award.
On June 9, 2022, Genmab announced the 
commencement of a second arbitration under the 
daratumumab license agreement with Janssen 
with claims for milestone payments for daratu-
mumab SC of USD 405 million and a separate 
13-year royalty term for daratumumab SC on a 
country-by-country basis, from the date of the 
first commercial sale of daratumumab SC in each 
such country. This second arbitration followed 
from the award in the prior arbitration, where the 
tribunal ruled in favor of Janssen on the question 
as to whether Genmab is required to share in 
Janssen’s royalty payments to Halozyme for its 
technology used in the daratumumab SC product. 
The tribunal based its ruling on the finding that 
DARZALEX FASPRO constitutes a new licensed 
product under the license agreement.
On April 21, 2023, the arbitral tribunal dismissed 
Genmab’s claims regarding the second arbi-
tration, on the basis that these claims should 
have been brought in the first arbitration. One 
arbitrator dissented. Genmab filed a request for 
review of the award, which was denied on January 
23, 2024. As a result, the dismissal of Genmab’s 
claims in the second arbitration is now final.

Novartis (Ofatumumab/Kesimpta)
Genmab and GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) entered a 
co-development and collaboration agreement 
for ofatumumab in 2006. The full rights to ofatu-
mumab were transferred from GSK to Novartis 
in 2015. Novartis is now fully responsible for the 
development and commercialization of ofatu-
mumab in all potential indications, including 
autoimmune diseases. Genmab is entitled to a 
10% royalty payment on net sales for non-cancer 
treatments. Genmab pays a royalty to Medarex 
based on Kesimpta net sales. Novartis’s obli-
gation to pay royalties to Genmab under this 
agreement expire on a country-by-country basis 
only in the event Novartis is no longer selling 
such product in a given country. The royalties 
are on a country-by-country basis subject to 
reduction in case of significant competition 
by competing products (as defined in the 
agreement) or a joint committee determination 
that a license of intellectual property owned by a 
third-party is necessary for commercialization.
Roche (Teprotumumab/TEPEZZA)
In May 2001, Genmab entered a research 
collaboration with Roche to develop human anti-
bodies to disease targets identified by Roche. 
In 2002, this alliance was expanded. Under the 
agreement, Genmab will receive milestones as 
well as royalty payments on successful products.
Teprotumumab was initially developed in 
collaboration between Genmab and Roche, and 
later investigated under license from Roche 
by River Vision Development Corporation 
subsequently and Horizon Therapeutics for 
ophthalmic use. The product was approved 
under the brand name TEPEZZA in 2020 by the 
U.S. FDA for the treatment of TED and in 2024 
by Japan’s MHLW for the treatment of active 
or high clinical activity score (CAS) TED. In 
October 2023, Amgen completed its acquisition 
of Horizon Therapeutics, including all rights 
to the development and commercialization of 
teprotumumab. Under the terms of Genmab’s 
agreement with Roche, Genmab receives 
a mid-single digit royalty on net sales of 
TEPEZZA, on a country-by-country basis, for 
10 years following the first commercial sale in 
such country.
Pfizer (Tisotumab vedotin/Tivdak)
In September 2010, Genmab and Pfizer entered 
into an ADC collaboration, and a commer-
cial license and collaboration agreement 
was executed in October 2011. In October 
2020, Genmab and Pfizer entered into a Joint 
Commercialization Agreement where Genmab 
would co-promote tisotumab vedotin, marketed 
as Tivdak, in the U.S., and lead commercial 
operational activities and record sales in Japan, 
while Pfizer would lead operational commercial 
activities in the U.S., Europe and China with a 
50:50 profit split in those markets. In all other 
markets, if any, Pfizer would be responsible for 
commercializing tisotumab vedotin and Genmab 
would receive royalties based on a percentage of 
aggregate net sales ranging from the mid-teens 
to the mid-twenties. Effective January 1, 2025, 
Genmab and Pfizer agreed to amend the 
License and Collaboration Agreement and the 
Joint Commercialization Agreement for Tivdak, 
assigning Genmab sole responsibility for the 
development and commercialization of Tivdak for 
second line plus recurrent or metastatic cervical 
cancer in Europe and all other regions globally, 
excluding the United States and the China region. 
With this amendment, Genmab will continue to 
co-promote Tivdak with Pfizer in the U.S. and 
will record sales for Europe, Japan and rest of 
world markets (excluding the United States and 
China regions), once commercialized, and will 
provide royalties to Pfizer on net sales in the low 
teens. Pfizer will continue to lead commercial-
ization activities in China, when approved. The 
companies will continue the practice of joint deci-
sion-making on the worldwide development and 
commercialization strategy for tisotumab vedotin.
AbbVie (Epcoritamab/
EPKINLY/TEPKINLY)
On June 10, 2020, Genmab entered into a broad 
oncology collaboration agreement with AbbVie 
to jointly develop and commercialize products 
including epcoritamab, and subsequently into a 
discovery research collaboration for up to four 
future differentiated antibody therapeutics for 
cancer. The companies will share commercial 
responsibilities for epcoritamab in the U.S. and 
Japan, with AbbVie responsible for further global 
commercialization. Genmab is the principal for 
net sales in the U.S. and Japan and receives 
tiered royalties between 22% and 26% on 
remaining net sales outside of these territories, 
subject to certain royalty reductions. For any 
product candidates developed as a result of the 
companies’ discovery research collaboration, 
Genmab and AbbVie will share responsibilities 
for global development and commercialization 
in the U.S. and Japan. Genmab retains the right 
to ­co-­commercialize these products, along with 
AbbVie, outside of the U.S. and Japan.
Under the terms of the agreement, Genmab 
received a USD 750 million (DKK 4,911 million) 
upfront payment in June 2020 and was initially 
entitled to receive an aggregate of up to USD 
3.15 billion in additional development, regulatory 
and sales milestone payments for all programs. 
Included in these potential milestones were up 
to USD 1.15 billion in payments related to clinical 
development and commercial success across 
the three bispecific antibody programs originally 
included in the agreement.
As a result of two programs being stopped, 
Genmab is instead contractually entitled to 
receive an aggregate of up to USD 2.55 billion 
in additional development, regulatory and sales 
milestone payments for all programs including an 
aggregate of up to USD 550 million in payments 
related to clinical development and commer-
cial success for the one remaining bispecific 
antibody program, epcoritamab, included in 
the original agreement. In addition, and also 
included in these potential milestones, if all four 
next-­generation antibody product candidates 
developed as a result of the discovery research 
collaboration are successful, Genmab is eligible 
to receive up to USD 2.0 billion in option exercise 
and success-based milestones.
In May 2023, epcoritamab received initial 
approval from the U.S. FDA and is marketed under 
the tradename EPKINLY. In September 2023, 
epcoritamab received initial approval from the 
EC and the Japan MHLW and is marketed under 
the tradenames TEPKINLY and EPKINLY, respec-
tively. Genmab is entitled to tiered royalties 
between 22% and 26% on net sales for epcor-
itamab outside the U.S. and Japan. Except for 
these royalty-​bearing sales, Genmab will share 
with AbbVie profits from the sale of licensed 
products on a 50:50 basis. Genmab and AbbVie 
split 50:50 the development costs related to 
epcoritamab, while Genmab will be responsible 
for 100% of the costs of the discovery research 
programs up to opt-in.
The total transaction price of USD 750 million 
(DKK 4,911 million) was allocated to the four 
performance obligations based on the best 
estimate of relative stand-alone selling prices.

Genmab 2024 Annual Report
Financial Statements

The allocation of the transaction price to the 
performance obligations is summarized below:
•	Delivery of licenses for the three programs: USD 
672 million (DKK 4,398 million)
•	Co-development activities for the product 
concepts: USD 78 million (DKK 513 million)
For the license grants, Genmab based the 
stand-alone selling price on a discounted cash 
flow approach and considered several factors 
including, but not limited to, discount rate, devel-
opment timeline, regulatory risks, estimated 
market demand and future revenue potential. For 
co-development activities related to up to four 
product concepts, a cost-plus margin approach 
was utilized.
The performance obligations related to the 
delivery of licenses were completed at a point 
in time (June 2020) and Genmab recognized 
USD 672 million (DKK 4,398 million) as license 
fee revenue in June 2020. After delivery of the 
licenses, Genmab shares further development 
and commercial costs equally with AbbVie. 
AbbVie is not assessed as a customer but as a 
collaboration partner, and as such this part of the 
collaboration is not in scope of IFRS 15.
Refer to Note 3.7 for information pertaining 
to the remaining performance obligation 
related to co-development activities for the 
product concepts.
BioNTech
In May 2015, Genmab entered into an agreement 
with BioNTech to jointly research, develop and 
commercialize bispecific antibody products using 
Genmab’s DuoBody technology platform. Under 
the terms of the agreement, BioNTech will provide 
proprietary antibodies against key immunomodu-
latory targets, while Genmab provides proprietary 
antibodies and access to its DuoBody technology 
platform. Genmab paid an upfront fee of USD 
10 million to BioNTech and an additional fee as 
certain BioNTech assets were selected for further 
development. If the companies jointly select any 
product candidates for clinical development, 
development costs and product ownership will 
be shared equally going forward. If one of the 
companies does not wish to move a product 
candidate forward, the other company is entitled 
to continue developing the product on prede-
termined licensing terms. The agreement also 
includes provisions which will allow the parties to 
opt out of joint development at key points. During 
July 2022, Genmab and BioNTech expanded this 
collaboration to include the joint research, devel-
opment and commercialization of monospecific 
antibody candidates using Genmab’s HexaBody 
technology platform.
Genmab and BioNTech have three investigational 
medicines currently in clinical development: 
DuoBody-CD40x4-1BB (GEN1042/BNT312), 
HexaBody-OX40 (GEN1055/BNT315) and 
DuoBody-EpCAMx4-1BB (GEN1059/BNT314). In 
August 2024, BioNTech opted not to participate 
in the further development of the acasunlimab 
(GEN1046) program under the parties’ existing 
License and Collaboration Agreement for reasons 
related to BioNTech’s portfolio strategy. Genmab 
assumed sole responsibility for the continued 
development and potential commercialization 
of acasunlimab and the program will be subject 
to payment of certain milestones and a tiered 
single-digit royalty on net sales by Genmab 
to BioNTech.
J&J (DuoBody)
In July 2012, and as amended in December 2013, 
Genmab entered into a collaboration with J&J to 
create and develop bispecific antibodies using 
our DuoBody technology platform.
As of December 31, 2024, three DuoBody-based 
products created under this collaboration were 
in active clinical development and had been 
approved by regulatory authorities: RYBREVANT, 
TECVAYLI and TALVEY. Under our agreement with 
J&J, Genmab is eligible to receive milestones and 
receives royalties between 8% and 10% on net 
sales of RYBREVANT, a mid-single digit royalty 
on net sales of TECVAYLI, and a mid-single digit 
royalty on net sales of TALVEY, all of which are 
subject to a reduction of such royalty payment 
in countries and territories where there are no 
relevant patents (as defined in the agreement), 
among other reductions. Pursuant to the terms 
of the DuoBody agreement, J&J’s obligation to 
pay these royalties will expire on a country-
by-country and licensed product-by-licensed 
product basis on the later of the date that is 10 
years after the first sale of each licensed product 
in such country or upon the expiration of the 
last-to-­expire relevant patent (as defined in the 
agreement) covering the licensed product in 
such country. Genmab pays a royalty to Medarex 
based on RYBREVANT net sales.
5.7	
Contingencies
Legal Contingency
In 2024, Chugai filed a lawsuit in the Tokyo 
District Court, Japan against AbbVie’s and 
Genmab’s subsidiaries in Japan asserting that 
their activities with EPKINLY (epcoritamab) in 
Japan infringe two Japanese patents held by 
Chugai, JP6278598 and JP6773929. Chugai is 
claiming damages and injunctive relief.
Genmab and AbbVie believe that the two 
Japanese patents are invalid and not infringed 
and intend to vigorously defend against the 
lawsuit, and thus no provision has been 
­recognized related to this matter.
Financial Guarantees
As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 
2023, Genmab has financial bank guarantees 
of DKK 16 million issued as security for lease 
obligations under certain lease agreements. The 
likelihood of a claim under the guarantees has 
been assessed to be remote due to Genmab’ 
strong financial position and history of fulfilling 
lease payments. Accordingly, no provision has 
been recognized related to this matter.
5.8	
Subsequent Events
Management has determined it is appropriate to 
change the functional currency of the Genmab 
A/S legal entity from DKK to USD effective 
January 1, 2025. This determination was made 
based on the growing number and significance of 
the underlying USD transactions, triggered by the 
commercialization of EPKINLY. Effective for the 
first quarter of 2025, the consolidated financial 
statements will also be presented in USD, which 
will be both the functional and presentation 
currency of the parent company.
No other events have occurred subsequent 
to the balance sheet date that could signifi-
cantly affect the financial statements as of 
December 31, 2024.

Accounting Policies
The financial statements of the parent company 
have been prepared in accordance with the 
IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the 
International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) 
and in accordance with IFRS as endorsed by the 
EU and further disclosure requirements for listed 
companies in Denmark.
A number of new or amended standards 
became applicable for the current reporting 
period. Genmab A/S did not have to change its 
accounting policies as a result of the adoption of 
these standards.
Refer to Note 1.2 in the consolidated financial 
statements for a description of new accounting 
policies and disclosures of the Group.
Refer to Note 1.3 in the consolidated financial 
statements for a description of management’s 
judgements and estimates under IFRS.
Refer to Note 1.4 in the consolidated financial 
statements for additional information regarding 
the immaterial reclassifications and revisions 
of the Group financial statements.
Supplementary Accounting 
Policies for the Parent Company
Investments in Subsidiaries
The cost method is used for measuring the 
investments in subsidiaries. Under the cost 
method, investments in subsidiaries are 
measured at historical cost. Equity interests in 
foreign currencies are translated to the reporting 
currency by use of historical exchange rates 
prevailing at the time of investment.
Additions to the carrying value of investment in 
subsidiaries include capital contributions made 
by the parent and share-based payment trans-
actions related to employees of the respective 
subsidiaries based on where the employee has 
rendered service.
Distributions from the investment are recog-
nized as income when declared, if any. If the 
distribution exceeds the current period income 
or if circumstances or changes in Genmab’s oper-
ations indicate that the carrying amount of the 
subsidiary may not be recoverable, the carrying 
amount is tested for impairment. Where the 
recoverable amount of the investments is lower 
than cost, the investments are written down to 
this lower value.
Refer to Note 1.1 in the consolidated financial 
statements for a description of the accounting 
policies of the Group.

Intangible Assets
The increase in the gross carrying value of intan-
gible assets during 2024 was primarily due to 
the addition of approximately DKK 11,789 million 
of IPR&D and DKK 1,237 million of a technology 
platform asset from the ProfoundBio acquisition. 
The technology platform asset is being amortized 
over its estimated useful life of 15 years. These 
intellectual property rights were transferred from 
ProfoundBio US to Genmab A/S during the fourth 
quarter of 2024.
Impairment expenses related to licenses and 
patents were DKK 243 million in 2024 and were 
not material in 2023. Impairment expenses were 
recorded in Research and development expenses 
in the Parent Company Income Statements.
Amortization expense was DKK 36 million and 
DKK 61 million for 2024 and 2023, respectively, 
which was recorded in Research and develop-
ment expenses in the Income Statements of the 
Parent Company.

During the fourth quarter of 2024, ProfoundBio US (an indirect subsidiary of Genmab A/S) sold its 
intangible assets to Genmab A/S. Following this transaction, Genmab A/S ultimately received dividend 
income. The dividend income received of DKK 13.0 billion was recognized as Financial Income in the 
financial statements of the parent company. 
As a result of the above, due to the significant deterioration in the value of Genmab A/S’ indirect 
investment in ProfoundBio US, Genmab A/S ultimately recorded a DKK 10.4 billion loss on impairment 
of its investment in subsidiaries. The difference between the dividend income received by Genmab 
A/S in this transaction and the loss on impairment of investment in subsidiaries relates to goodwill 
retained at the subsidiary level. The DKK 10.4 billion impairment loss was recognized as Financial 
Expense in the financial statements of the parent company.
Refer to Note 5.5 in the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the 
acquisition of ProfoundBio and Note 17 in the parent company financial statements for additional

Commitments and Contingencies
Purchase Obligations
Genmab A/S has entered into a number of agreements related to research and development activities 
that contain various obligations. These contractual obligations amounted to approximately DKK 2,867 
million as of December 31, 2024 (2023: approximately DKK 3,145 million).
Genmab A/S also has certain contingent commitments under our license and collaboration agree-
ments that may become due in the future. As of December 31, 2024, these contingent commitments 
amounted to approximately DKK 12,304 million (USD 1,723 million) in potential future development, 
regulatory and commercial milestone payments to third parties under license and collaboration agree-
ments for our preclinical and clinical stage development programs as compared to approximately 
DKK 9,991 million (USD 1,481 million) as of December 31, 2023. These milestone payments generally 
become due and payable only upon the achievement of certain development, clinical, regulatory or 
commercial milestones. The events triggering such payments or obligations have not yet occurred.
In addition to the above obligations, Genmab A/S enters into a variety of agreements and financial 
commitments in the normal course of business. The terms generally allow us the option to cancel, 
reschedule and adjust our requirements based on our business needs prior to the delivery of goods 
or performance of services. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future 
payments under these agreements due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique 
facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement.
Financial Guarantees
As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Genmab A/S has financial bank guarantees of DKK 
16 million issued as security for lease obligations under certain lease agreements. The likelihood of 
a claim under the guarantees has been assessed to be remote due to Genmab A/S’s strong financial 
position and history of fulfilling lease payments. Accordingly, no provision has been recognized related 
to this matter.
Refer to Note 5.3 in the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding 
commitments of the Group and Note 5.7 in the consolidated financial statements for additional 
information regarding contingencies of the Group.

Report on the consolidated 
financial statements and the 
parent financial statements
To the shareholders of Genmab A/S
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial 
statements and the parent financial state-
ments of Genmab A/S for the financial year 
January 1, 2024–December 31, 2024, which 
comprise balance sheet, statements of cash 
flow, statement of changes in equity and notes, 
including material accounting policy information 
for the Group as well as the Parent, statement 
of comprehensive income of the Group and 
income statement of the Parent. The consol-
idated financial statements and the parent 
financial statements are prepared in accordance 
with IFRS Accounting Standards as endorsed by 
the EU and additional disclosure requirements 
for listed entities in Denmark.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial state-
ments and the parent financial statements 
give a true and fair view of the Group’s and the 
Parent’s financial position at December 31, 
2024, and of the results of its operations and 
cash flows for the financial year January 1, 
2024–December 31, 2024 in accordance with 
IFRS Accounting Standards as endorsed by the 
EU and additional disclosure requirements for 
listed entities in Denmark.
Our opinion is consistent with our Long Form 
Audit Report issued to the Audit & Finance 
Committee and the Board of Directors.
Basis for opinion
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 consolidated financial 
statements and the parent financial state-
ments” section of this auditor’s report. We are 
independent of the Group 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.
To the best of our knowledge and belief, we 
have not provided any prohibited non-audit 
services as referred to in Article 5(1) of 
Regulation (EU) No 537/2014.
We were appointed auditors of Genmab A/S 
for the first time on March 13, 2024, for the 
financial year 2024.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance 
in our audit of the consolidated financial statements and the parent financial statements for the 
financial year January 1, 2024–December 31, 2024. These matters were addressed in the context of 
our audit of the consolidated financial statements and the parent financial statements as a whole, 
and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
Key audit matter
How our audit addressed the  
key audit matter
Valuation of Acquired IPR&D Assets in the  
ProfoundBio, Inc. Acquisition
Refer to Notes 3.1 and 5.5 to the financial statements.
The Company completed the acquisition of ProfoundBio, 
Inc. (“ProfoundBio”) for USD 1.72 billion (DKK 11.8 billion) 
on May 21, 2024. The Company accounted for the 
acquisition as a business combination and, accordingly, 
has performed procedures to identify all assets and 
liabilities and allocated the purchase price to the assets 
acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective 
estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition.
Intangible assets acquired primarily included the 
in-process research and development intangible assets 
(“Acquired IPR&D assets”). The Company estimated the 
fair value of the Acquired IPR&D assets using an income 
approach. The fair value determination of the Acquired 
IPR&D assets required the Company to make significant 
estimates and assumptions related to the forecasted 
future cash flows, such as probabilities of technical 
and regulatory success, and the determination of the 
discount rates.
We identified the valuation of Acquired IPR&D assets 
for the ProfoundBio acquisition as a key audit matter 
because of the high level of complexity and management 
judgement involved in determining the above outlined 
significant estimates and assumptions used by the 
Company to determine the fair value of these assets. 
This required a high degree of auditor judgement 
and an increased extent of effort when performing 
audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of 
management’s estimates and assumptions.
We tested the effectiveness of controls over 
the valuation of the Acquired IPR&D assets, 
including the Company’s controls over the 
significant estimates and assumptions 
related to the forecasted future cash flows, 
such as probabilities of technical and 
regulatory success, and the determination 
of the discount rates.
We assessed the reasonableness of the 
Company’s probabilities of technical and 
regulatory success used in determination 
of the fair value of the Acquired IPR&D 
assets by comparing to internal and external 
market studies and certain peer companies/
products in the industry.
We assessed the reasonableness of the 
Company’s forecasts of future cash flows 
used in determination of the fair value of the 
Acquired IPR&D assets by comparing the 
forecasts to historical results of operations, 
certain peer companies within comparable 
industries, and internal and external 
market studies.
With the assistance of our valuation 
specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness 
of the discount rates by testing the source 
information and inputs underlying the 
determination of the discount rates, including 
in relation to publicly available information 
for comparable companies and testing the 
mathematical accuracy of the calculation.

Key audit matter
How our audit addressed the  
key audit matter
Revenue recognition of royalty revenue
Refer to Note 2.1 to the financial statements.
The Company recognized royalty revenue, where revenue 
is recognized based on net sales by collaboration 
partners. The Company uses net sales provided by its 
collaboration partners as an input to their calculation 
of the amount of royalty revenue to recognize in each 
period. The preliminary net sales data provided by the 
collaboration partner may change once final net sales data 
is available.
We identified the revenue recognition of royalty contracts 
as a key audit matter because of the significant estimation 
uncertainty related to the net sales data provided by 
collaboration partners. Specifically, the collaboration 
partner’s estimate of net sales could change based 
on the final net sales impacting the royalty revenue 
recognized in each period. This required a high degree 
of auditor judgement and an increased extent of effort 
when performing audit procedures to evaluate the 
reasonableness of management’s estimates of the 
net sales.
We tested the effectiveness of controls 
relating to the evaluation for reasonableness 
of the estimated net sales used in the 
determination of royalty revenue recognition.
We tested the overall reasonableness of 
the estimated net sales reported by the 
collaboration partners by assessing the 
historical accuracy of the estimates.
We obtained external confirmations 
from selected collaboration partners 
on the estimated and actual net sales 
amounts reported.
Statement on Management’s Review
Management is responsible for the 
Management Review.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial state-
ments and the parent financial statements does 
not cover the Management Review, and we do 
not as part of the audit express any form of 
assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated 
financial statements and the parent financial 
statements, our responsibility is to read the 
Management Review and, in doing so, consider 
whether the Management Review is materially 
inconsistent with the consolidated financial state-
ments and the parent financial statements or our 
knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise 
appears to be materially misstated.
Moreover, it is our responsibility to consider 
whether the Management Review provides the 
information required by the Danish Financial 
Statements Act. This does not include the 
requirements in paragraph 99a related to the 
Sustainability Statement covered by the separate 
auditor’s limited assurance report hereon.
Based on the work we have performed, in our 
view, the Management Review is in accordance 
with the consolidated financial statements and 
the parent financial statements and has been 
prepared in accordance with the requirements 
of the Danish Financial Statements Act except 
for the requirements in paragraph 99a related 
to the Sustainability Statement, see above. We 
did not identify any material misstatement of the 
Management Review.
Management’s responsibilities for 
the consolidated financial statements 
and the parent financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation 
of consolidated financial statements and parent 
financial statements that give a true and fair view 
in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as 
endorsed by the EU and additional requirements 
of the Danish Financial Statements Act, and for 
such internal control as Management determines 
is necessary to enable the preparation of consol-
idated financial statements and parent financial 
statements that are free from material misstate-
ment, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial state-
ments and the parent financial statements, 
Management is responsible for assessing the 
Group’s and the Parent’s ability to continue as 
a going concern, for disclosing, as applicable, 
matters related to going concern, and for 
using the going concern basis of accounting in 
preparing the consolidated financial statements 
and the parent financial statements unless 
Management either intends to liquidate the Group 
or the Entity or to cease operations, or has no 
realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the 
audit of the consolidated financial 
statements and the parent 
financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable 
assurance about whether the consolidated 
financial statements and the parent 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 users taken on the basis of these consoli-
dated financial statements and these parent 
financial statements.
As part of an audit conducted in accordance with 
ISAs and the additional requirements applicable 
in Denmark, we exercise professional judgement 
and maintain professional scepticism throughout 
the audit. We also:
•	Identify and assess the risks of material 
misstatement of the consolidated financial 
statements and the parent 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 Group’s and the Parent’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 consolidated 
financial statements and the parent 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 Group’s and the 
Parent’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 consolidated financial statements and 
the parent 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 Group and the Entity 
to cease to continue as a going concern.
•	Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and 
content of the consolidated financial statements 
and the parent financial statements, including 
the disclosures in the notes, and whether the 
consolidated financial statements and the 
parent financial statements represent the 
underlying transactions and events in a manner 
that gives a true and fair view.
•	Plan and perform the group audit to obtain 
sufficient and appropriate audit evidence 
regarding the financial information of the 
entities or business units within the group 
as a basis for forming an opinion on the 
consolidated financial statements and the 
parent financial statements. We are responsible 
for the direction, supervision and review of the 
audit work performed for purposes of the group 
audit. We remain solely responsible for our 
audit opinion.
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.
We also provide those charged with governance 
with a statement that we have complied with 
relevant ethical requirements regarding inde-
pendence, and to communicate with them all 
relationships and other matters that may reason-
ably be thought to bear on our independence, 
and, where applicable, safeguards put in place 
and measures taken to eliminate threats.
From the matters communicated with those 
charged with governance, we determine those 
matters that were of most significance in the 
audit of the consolidated financial statements 
and the parent financial statements of the current 
period and are therefore the key audit matters. 
We describe these matters in our auditor’s report 
unless law or regulation precludes public disclo-
sure about the matter or when, in extremely 
rare circumstances, we determine that a matter 
should not be communicated in our report 
because the adverse consequences of doing so 
would reasonably be expected to outweigh the 
public interest benefits of such communication.

Genmab 2024 Annual Report
Financial Statements

Report on compliance with 
the ESEF Regulation
As part of our audit of the consolidated financial 
statements and the parent financial statements of 
Genmab A/S we performed procedures to express 
an opinion on whether the annual report for the 
financial year January 1, 2024–December 31, 
2024, with the file name Genmab-2024-12-31-
0-en.zip, is prepared, in all material respects,
in compliance with the Commission Delegated
Regulation (EU) 2019/815 on the European
Single Electronic Format (ESEF Regulation), which
includes requirements related to the preparation
of the annual report in XHTML format and iXBRL
tagging of the consolidated financial statements
including notes.
Management is responsible for preparing an 
annual report that complies with the ESEF 
Regulation. This responsibility includes:
• The preparing of the annual report in
XHTML format;
• The selection and application of appropriate
iXBRL tags, including extensions to the
ESEF taxonomy and the anchoring thereof
to elements in the taxonomy, for financial
information required to be tagged using
judgement where necessary;
• Ensuring consistency between iXBRL tagged
data and the consolidated financial statements
presented in human readable format; and
• For such internal control as Management
determines necessary to enable the preparation
of an annual report that is compliant with the
ESEF Regulation.
Our responsibility is to obtain reasonable 
assurance on whether the annual report is 
prepared, in all material respects, in compliance 
with the ESEF Regulation based on the evidence 
we have obtained, and to issue a report that 
includes our opinion. The nature, timing and 
extent of procedures selected depend on the 
auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of 
the risks of material departures from the require-
ments set out in the ESEF Regulation, whether 
due to fraud or error. The procedures include:
• Testing whether the annual report is prepared in
XHTML format;
• Obtaining an understanding of the company’s
iXBRL tagging process and of internal control
over the tagging process;
• Evaluating the completeness of the iXBRL
tagging of the consolidated financial statements
including notes;
• Evaluating the appropriateness of the
company’s use of iXBRL elements selected
from the ESEF taxonomy and the creation of
extension elements where no suitable element
in the ESEF taxonomy has been identified;
• Evaluating the use of anchoring of
extension elements to elements in the ESEF
taxonomy; and
• Reconciling the iXBRL tagged data with
the audited consolidated and parent
financial statements.
In our opinion, the annual report of Genmab 
A/S for the financial year January 1, 2024–
December 31, 2024, with the file name 
Genmab-2024-12-31-0-en.zip, is prepared, in 
all material respects, in compliance with the 
ESEF Regulation.

Independent auditor’s 
limited assurance report on 
Sustainability Statements
To the stakeholders of Genmab A/S
Limited assurance conclusion
We have conducted a limited assurance engage-
ment on the Sustainability Statements of Genmab 
A/S (the “Group”) included in the Management’s 
Review (the “Sustainability Statements”), for the 
financial year January 1–December 31, 2024.
Based on the procedures we have performed 
and the evidence we have obtained, nothing 
has come to our attention that causes us to 
believe that the Sustainability Statements is not 
prepared, in all material respects, in accordance 
with the Danish Financial Statements Act section 
99a, including:
•	compliance with the European Sustainability 
Reporting Standards (ESRS), including that 
the process carried out by the management 
to identify the information reported in the 
Sustainability Statements (the “Process”) is in 
accordance with the description set out in 1.4 
Impact, risk, and opportunity management; and
•	compliance of the disclosures in subsection 2.4 
EU Taxonomy within the environmental section 
of the Sustainability Statements with Article 
8 of EU Regulation 2020/852 (the “Taxonomy 
Regulation”).
Basis for conclusion
We conducted our limited assurance engage-
ment in accordance with ISAE 3000 (Revised), 
Assurance engagements other than audits or 
reviews of historical financial information, and 
additional requirements applicable in Denmark. 
The procedures in a limited assurance engage-
ment vary in nature and timing from, and are 
less in extent than for, a reasonable assurance 
engagement. Consequently, the level of assurance 
obtained in a limited assurance engagement is 
substantially lower than the assurance that would 
have been obtained had a reasonable assurance 
engagement been performed.
We believe that the evidence we have obtained 
is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 
for our conclusion. Our responsibilities under this 
standard are further described in the “Auditor’s 
responsibilities for the assurance engagement” 
section of our report.
Our independence and  
quality management
We are independent of the Group 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. We have also fulfilled our other ethical 
responsibilities in accordance with these require-
ments and the IESBA Code.
Deloitte Statsautoriseret Revisionspartnerselskab 
applies International Standard on Quality 
Management 1, ISQM1, which requires the firm 
to design, implement and operate a system 
of quality management including policies or 
procedures regarding compliance with ethical 
requirements, professional standards and appli-
cable legal and regulatory requirements.
Other matter
The comparative information included in the 
Sustainability Statements of the Group was not 
subject to an assurance engagement. Our conclu-
sion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Inherent limitations in preparing 
the Sustainability Statements
In reporting forward-looking information in 
accordance with ESRS, management is required 
to prepare the forward-looking information on 
the basis of disclosed assumptions about events 
that may occur in the future and possible future 
actions by the Group. Actual outcomes are likely 
to be different since anticipated events frequently 
do not occur as expected.
Management’s responsibilities for 
the Sustainability Statements
Management is responsible for designing and 
implementing a process to identify the informa-
tion reported in the Sustainability Statements 
in accordance with the ESRS and for disclosing 
this Process in 1.4 Impact, risk, and opportunity 
management of the Sustainability Statements. 
This responsibility includes:
•	understanding the context in which the Group’s 
activities and business relationships take place 
and developing an understanding of its affected 
stakeholders;
•	the identification of the actual and potential 
impacts (both negative and positive) related 
to sustainability matters, as well as risks and 
opportunities that affect, or could reasonably 
be expected to affect, the Group’s financial 
position, financial performance, cash flows, 
access to finance or cost of capital over the 
short-, medium-, or long-term;
•	the assessment of the materiality of the 
identified impacts, risks and opportunities 
related to sustainability matters by selecting 
and applying appropriate thresholds; and
•	making assumptions that are reasonable in the 
circumstances.
Management is further responsible for the 
preparation of the Sustainability Statements, in 
accordance with the Danish Financial Statements 
Act section 99a, including:
•	compliance with the ESRS;
•	preparing the disclosures in subsection 2.4 EU 
Taxonomy within the environmental section of 
the Sustainability Statements, in compliance 
with Article 8 of the Taxonomy Regulation;
•	designing, implementing and maintaining such 
internal control that management determines 
is necessary to enable the preparation of the 
Sustainability Statements that is free from 
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or 
error; and
•	the selection and application of appropriate 
sustainability reporting methods and making 
assumptions and estimates that are reasonable 
in the circumstances.

Independent Auditor’s Reports
Auditor’s responsibilities for 
the assurance engagement
Our objectives are to plan and perform the 
assurance engagement to obtain limited 
assurance about whether the Sustainability 
Statements is free from material misstatement, 
whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a 
limited assurance report that includes our conclu-
sion. Misstatements can arise from fraud or 
error and are considered material if, individually 
or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be 
expected to influence decisions of users taken 
on the basis of the Sustainability Statements as 
a whole.
As part of a limited assurance engagement in 
accordance with ISAE 3000 (Revised) we exercise 
professional judgement and maintain profes-
sional scepticism throughout the engagement.
Our responsibilities in respect of the 
Process include:
•	Obtaining an understanding of the Process but 
not for the purpose of providing a conclusion on 
the effectiveness of the Process, including the 
outcome of the Process;
•	Considering whether the information 
identified addresses the applicable disclosure 
requirements of the ESRS, and
•	Designing and performing procedures to 
evaluate whether the Process is consistent 
with the Group’s description of its Process, 
as disclosed in 1.4 Impact, risk, and 
opportunity management.
Our other responsibilities in respect of the 
Sustainability Statements include:
•	Identifying disclosures where material 
misstatements are likely to arise, whether due 
to fraud or error; and
•	Designing and performing procedures 
responsive to disclosures in the Sustainability 
Statements where material misstatements 
are likely to arise. 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.
Summary of the work performed
A limited assurance engagement involves 
performing procedures to obtain evidence about 
the Sustainability Statements.
The nature, timing and extent of procedures 
selected depend on professional judgement, 
including the identification of disclosures 
where material misstatements are likely to 
arise, whether due to fraud or error, in the 
Sustainability Statements.
In conducting our limited assurance engagement, 
with respect to the Process, we:
•	Obtained an understanding of the Process by 
performing inquiries to understand the sources 
of the information used by management; and 
reviewing the Group’s internal documentation of 
its Process; and
•	Evaluated whether the evidence obtained from 
our procedures about the Process implemented 
by the Group’s was consistent with the 
description of the Process set out in 1.4 Impact, 
risk, and opportunity management.
In conducting our limited assurance engagement, 
with respect to the Sustainability Statements, we:
•	Obtained an understanding of the Group’s 
reporting processes relevant to the preparation 
of its Sustainability Statements including 
the consolidation processes by obtaining 
an understanding of the Group’s control 
environment, processes and information 
systems relevant to the preparation of the 
Sustainability Statements but not evaluating the 
design of particular control activities, obtaining 
evidence about their implementation or testing 
their operating effectiveness;
•	Evaluated whether material information 
identified by the Process is included in the 
Sustainability Statements;
•	Evaluated whether the structure and the 
presentation of the Sustainability Statements 
are in accordance with the ESRS;
•	Performed inquiries of relevant personnel and 
analytical procedures on selected information 
in the Sustainability Statements;
•	Performed substantive assurance 
procedures on selected information in the 
Sustainability Statements;
•	Evaluated methods, assumptions and data for 
developing material estimates and forward-
looking information and how these methods 
were applied;
•	Obtained an understanding of the 
process to identify taxonomy-eligible and 
taxonomy-aligned economic activities 
and the corresponding disclosures in the 
Sustainability Statements.

ments. Actual results or performance may 
differ materially from any future results or 
performance expressed or implied by such 
statements. The important factors that could 
cause our actual results or performance 
to differ materially include, among others, 
risks associated with product discovery 
and development, uncertainties related to 
the outcome and conduct of clinical trials 
including unforeseen safety issues, uncer-
tainties related to product manufacturing, our 
inability to manage growth, the competitive 
environment in relation to our business area 
and markets, our inability to attract and retain 
suitably qualified personnel, the unenforce-
ability or lack of protection of our patents 
and proprietary rights, our relationships with 
affiliated entities, changes and developments 
in technology which may render our products 
obsolete, and other factors. Additional factors 
that could cause our actual results or perfor-
mance to differ materially could also include 
and are not limited to the risk and uncertainties 
related to regulatory action, reimbursement, 
market adoption by physicians or lack of 
market acceptance of our products, the risk 
that the Company or our collaborators may be 
delayed or unsuccessful in planned clinical 
trial initiations, enrollment and planned regu-
latory submissions and approvals in the U.S. 
and other countries. For a further discussion 
of these risks, please refer to the section “Risk 
Management” in this Annual Report and the
