𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗴𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀

Helgstrand Dressage responds to Nordjyske’s article about Helgstrand Dressage and our financial situation, which unfortunately presents a misleading picture of reality. The article draws erroneous conclusions about our finances, and important information has been omitted. For further clarification, we refer to the press release (read it here: https://bit.ly/4fL7Yqv )with management's comments on the annual financial statement, published on the group’s website on December 30, 2024.

It is correct that our latest consolidated financial statement for Global Equestrian Group shows an overall deficit. This is primarily due to significant interest costs related to recently divested activities in the USA, as well as impairments in several of our business areas. Both the divested activities and the impairments are part of a planned and controlled process.

It is important to point out that, after the fiscal year ended (June 30, 2024), we completed the sale of our U.S. event business, which was announced in November 2024. As stated in the annual report, the proceeds from this sale have resulted in a significant reduction of more than DKK 1.6 billion of the group’s debt (see page 11 in Global Equestrian Group Holding ApS’ annual report). Thus, our financial position has been substantially strengthened, along with significant free liquidity. This major debt payment is not mentioned in the aforementioned article and thereby significantly alters several conclusions. It is important to emphasize that Global Equestrian Group is not struggling to survive but, on the contrary, stands strong after the U.S. divestment.

𝗔𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿
Despite challenges during the fiscal year, Helgstrand Dressage achieved a profit of approximately DKK 30 million after tax in its core business of buying and selling horses, underscoring the company’s strength and sustainability.

We are an internationally recognized company focused on the purchase, sale, and training of the world’s best dressage and showjumping horses, as well as the operation of our stallion station. Our core business is not only healthy but strong, and we look to the future with optimism.

𝗠𝗶𝘀𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀
The unbalanced and, to some extent, one-sided portrayal of stories concerning Global Equestrian Group and Helgstrand Dressage are very unfortunate. Such representations, especially when based on missing or omitted facts, have the potential to harm our business. We therefore strongly urge media outlets that have reported on Global Equestrian Group’s financial situation to correct their articles to include all relevant facts and adjust their conclusions accordingly.

𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗴𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮̊𝗿 𝘀𝘁æ𝗿𝗸𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘀 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗸𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗲𝗿

Helgstrand Dressage reagerer på Nordjyskes artikel om Helgstrand Dressage og vores økonomiske situation, som desværre giver et misvisende billede af virkeligheden. Artiklen trækker fejlagtige konklusioner om vores økonomi, og vigtige oplysninger er blevet udeladt. Vi henviser i øvrigt til pressemeddelelsen (Læs den her: https://bit.ly/4fL7Yqv ) om ledelsens kommentarer til årsregnskabet, publiceret på koncernens hjemmeside 30. december 2024.

Det er korrekt, at vores seneste koncernregnskab for Global Equestrian Group viser et samlet underskud. Dette skyldes primært betydelige renteomkostninger relateret til nylig frasolgte aktiviteter i USA, samt nedskrivninger i flere af vores forretningsområder. Både de frasolgte aktiviteter samt nedskrivningerne er en del af en planlagt og kontrolleret proces.

Det er vigtigt at påpege, at vi efter regnskabsårets afslutning (30. juni 2024) har gennemført salget af vores amerikanske event forretning, som blev annonceret i November 2024. Som nævnt i årsrapporten, har provenuet fra dette frasalg betydet en væsentlig reduktion på mere end DKK 1,6 mia. af koncernens gældsbyrde (se s. 11 i Global Equestrian Group Holding ApS’ årsrapport). Dermed er vores økonomiske position styrket betragteligt og derudover med betydelig fri likviditet. Den store gældsbetaling er ikke nævnt i førnævnte artikel, og ændrer dermed flere konklusioner markant. Det er vigtigt at understrege, Global Equestrian Group ikke kæmper for overlevelse, men derimod står stærkt efter frasalget i USA.

𝗙𝗮𝗸𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗸𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗿𝗮 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗻𝘀𝗸𝗮𝗯𝘀𝗮̊𝗿
På trods af udfordringer i regnskabsåret har Helgstrand Dressage opnået et overskud på ca. 30 mio. kr. efter skat i kerneforretningen på køb og salg af heste, hvilket understreger virksomhedens styrke og bæredygtighed.

Vi er en internationalt anerkendt virksomhed med fokus på køb, salg og uddannelse af verdens bedste dressur- og springheste samt drift af vores hingstestation. Vores kerneforretning er ikke kun sund, men står stærkt, og vi ser på fremtiden med optimisme.

𝗠𝗶𝘀𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗸𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗲𝗿
Vi ærgerlige over den unuancerede og til dels ensidige vinkling af historier omhandlende Global Equestrian Group og Helgstrand Dressage. En sådan fremstilling især når den baseres på manglende eller udeladt fakta er til potentiel skade for vores virksomhed. Vi opfordrer derfor på det kraftigste medier som har ført en historie ang. Global Equestrian Group’s finansielle situation til at korrigere deres artikler så alt relevant fakta medtages og afledte konklusioner tilrettes.
