Since 2000 DKK ~25bn has been returned to
 shareholders through dividend or share buybacks
              At the annual shareholders’ meeting in March 2018, a dividend of DKK 4.50 per share for the 2017 financial year (an increase of
              13% compared with 2016), was approved. This resulted in a total dividend payment of approximately DKK 1,318 million,
              corresponding to a payout ratio of 42.3%.
              Novozymes decided to initiate a new stock buyback program worth up to DKK 2.0 billion in total, or a maximum of 20 million shares.
              The program began in early 2018 and will run for the remainder of the year.
              Accumulated dividends of DKK ~11bn and stock buybacks of DKK ~14bn have been returned to the shareholders since 2000

Forward-looking statements

     This presentation and its related comments contain forward-looking statements, including statements about
     future events, future financial performance, plans, strategies and expectations. Forward-looking statements are
     associated with words such as, but not limited to, "believe," "anticipate," "expect," "estimate," "intend," "plan,"
     "project," "could," "may," "might" and other words of similar meaning.

     Forward-looking statements are by their very nature associated with risks and uncertainties that may cause
     actual results to differ materially from expectations, both positively and negatively. The risks and uncertainties
     may, among other things, include unexpected developments in i) the ability to develop and market new
     products; ii) the demand for Novozymes’ products, market-driven price decreases, industry consolidation, and
     launches of competing products or disruptive technologies in Novozymes’ core areas; iii) the ability to protect
     and enforce the company’s intellectual property rights; iv) significant litigation or breaches of contract; v) the
     materialization of the company’s growth platforms, notably the opportunity for marketing biomass conversion
     technologies or the development of microbial solutions for broad-acre crops; vi) the political conditions, such as
     acceptance of enzymes produced by genetically modified organisms; vii) the global economic and capital
     market conditions, including, but not limited to, currency exchange rates (USD/DKK and EUR/DKK in particular,
     but not exclusively), interest rates and inflation; viii) significant price decreases on inputs and materials that
     compete with Novozymes’ biological solutions. The company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-
     looking statements as a result of future developments or new information.
