*     The reclassification of EUR 1,658k from purchased rights, licenses, software represented purchased rights related to certain biomarkers in prior years, as well as expenses incurred for certain licenses and software, which were used in the process of developing internal IT driven solutions.  Reclassification is made to allow more transparent presentation considering this is more in line with each sub-group of intangible assets.

Development costs and amortization

Internally generated intangible assets include capitalized development costs for biomarkers and IT driven solutions such as CentoPortal, CentoMetabolome and the CentoMD mutation database (see notes 5 and 6 regarding measurement).

The amortization of patents, trademarks and development costs is expensed and recorded under “cost of sales” to the extent the related intangible is used in generating revenue and recorded in research and development expenses to the extent the related intangibles are used for R&D purposes.

 

As of December 31, 2020, certain identified biomarkers amounting to EUR 4.7 million were impaired as part of the Company’s strategy reassessment which began in Q4 2020. The impairment is expensed under cost of sales and included in amortization and impairment expense in the Pharma segment.
