Notes to the Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements

1. The Orange Polska Group

Orange Polska S.A. ("Orange Polska" or "the Company" or "OPL S.A."), a joint stock company, was incorporated and commenced its operations on 4 December 1991. The Orange Polska Group ("the Group") comprises Orange Polska and its subsidiaries. Orange Polska shares are listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.

The Group is the principal provider of telecommunications services in Poland. The Group provides mobile and fixed telecommunications services, including calls, messaging, content, access to the Internet and TV. In addition, the Group provides ICT (Information and Communications Technology) services, leased lines and other telecommunications value added services, sells telecommunications equipment, provides data transmission, constructs telecommunications infrastructure, sells electrical energy and financial services.

Orange Polska's registered office is located in Warsaw at 160 Aleje Jerozolimskie St.

The list of entities included in the Condensed IFRS Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group (the "Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements") as at and for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 is presented in Note 1.2 to the Orange Polska Group IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto ("IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements") for the year ended 31 December 2017.

2. Segment (Group) revenue and results

The Group reports a single operating segment as decisions about resources to be allocated and assessment of performance are made on consolidated basis. Segment performance is evaluated by the Management Board mainly based on consolidated revenue, consolidated EBITDA, consolidated net income, consolidated organic cash flows, consolidated capital expenditures, consolidated net financial debt and consolidated net financial debt to EBITDA ratio based on cumulative EBITDA for the last four quarters. To give a better representation of underlying performance, the above measures are adjusted as specified below.

To facilitate comparability between periods following the modified retrospective approach to adoption of IFRS 15, certain performance measures are presented also on an "IAS 18 comparable basis", i.e. calculated under IAS 18 and other standards and interpretations concerning revenue recognition applicable in 2017. More information on IFRS 15 and its application by the Group in 2018 is presented in Note 3.2.

Revenue from the Group's activities is adjusted for the impact of changes in the scope of consolidation. There was no adjustment for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 and 2017.

Since the calculation of EBITDA, organic cash flows, capital expenditures and net financial debt is not defined by IFRS, the methodology adopted by the Group is presented below.

EBITDA is the key measure of operating profitability used by the Management Board and corresponds to operating income before depreciation and amortisation expense and impairment of fixed assets. To give a better representation of underlying performance, EBITDA is adjusted for the impact of changes in the scope of consolidation, employment termination programs, restructuring costs, significant claims, litigation and other risks as well as other significant non-recurring items. Adjustments for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 and 2017 are presented in the table below.

Organic cash flows are the key measure of cash flow generation used by the Management Board and correspond to net cash provided by operating activities decreased by purchases of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, changes in amounts due to fixed assets suppliers, impact of investment grants received/paid to fixed assets

Orange Polska Group Condensed IFRS Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements – 30 September 2018 Translation of the financial statements originally issued in Polish

suppliers, impact of net exchange rate effect received/paid on derivatives economically hedging capital expenditures and increased by proceeds from sale of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. To give a better representation of underlying performance, organic cash flows are adjusted for the payments for acquisition of telecommunications licences and payments relating to significant claims, litigation and other risks as well as for investment grants received/paid to fixed assets suppliers. Adjustments for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 and 2017 are presented in the table below.

Capital expenditures are the key measure of resources allocation used by the Management Board and represent acquisitions of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. To give a better representation of underlying performance, capital expenditures are adjusted for the impact of acquisition of telecommunications licences. Adjustments for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 and 2017 are presented in the table below.

Net financial debt and net financial debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio are the key measures of indebtedness and liquidity used by the Management Board. The calculation of net financial debt is presented in Note 8.

  • IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments". This standard has been endorsed by the European Union on 22 November 2016 and it is applicable for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2018.

3.2. Adoption of IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers"

IFRS 15 establishes principles for reporting the information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue arising from an entity's contracts with customers.

The effects on the Group's accounts primarily relate to the mobile phone market and notably to:

  • a) the accounting for arrangements which bundle the sale of a handset with a discounted price and with customer subscription to a communication service for a defined period of time: the cumulative revenue does not change but the allocation between the handset sold and the communication service changes (higher equipment revenue up front, with an equivalent decrease in service revenue spread over time due to the subsidy mechanism embedded in the offers);
  • b) the accelerated recognition of revenue when the equipment is sold, offset by the supply of the service during the enforceable period, leads to the recognition of a contract asset in the statement of financial position which is settled against a receivable as the communication service is provided;
  • c) recognition of some incremental subscriber acquisition and retention costs (i.e. payments to retailers directly attributable to the contract with customer) over the duration of the contractual relationship;
  • d) recognition of a contract liability representing the Group's obligation to provide services or equipment to a customer for which consideration has been received or is due (mainly unused balances in pre-paid system and post-paid subscription previously recognised as deferred income).

The new accounting policy relating to revenue and contract costs applied by the Group from 1 January 2018 is presented in Note 4.

IFRS 15 is applied by the Group using the "modified retrospective approach" in which the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard is recognised as an adjustment to retained earnings at the date of initial application.

Adoption of IFRS 15 affected the consolidated statement of financial position as at 1 January 2018 as follows:

3.3. Adoption of IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments"

IFRS 9 defines three categories of financial assets – depending on the business model in which assets are managed and their cash flow characteristics:

  • assets subsequently measured at amortised cost if the financial assets are held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual terms of these financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest;
  • assets subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if the financial assets are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and the contractual terms of these financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest;
  • assets at fair value through profit or loss all other financial assets.

IFRS 9 does not change the classification of the Group's financial liabilities.

On the date of initial application, 1 January 2018, classification and carrying value of the Group's financial instruments were as follows:

(in PLN millions) At 1 January 2018
Classification Carrying value
IAS 39 IFRS 9 IAS 39 IFRS 9
Trade receivables Loans and receivables Amortised cost 2,798 2,784
Hedging derivative Hedging derivative
Derivatives instruments instruments 35 35
Fair value through profit Fair value through profit
Derivatives or loss or loss 2 2
Cash and cash equivalents Loans and receivables Amortised cost 646 646
Total financial assets 3,481 3,467
Trade payables Amortised cost Amortised cost 2,971 2,971
Loans from related party Amortised cost Amortised cost 6,969 6,969
Other financial liabilities at amortised cost Amortised cost Amortised cost 113 113
Hedging derivative Hedging derivative
Derivatives instruments instruments 69 69
Fair value through profit Fair value through profit
Derivatives or loss or loss 31 31
Total financial liabilities 10,153 10,153

IFRS 9 changes the credit risk recognition model from the incurred losses to the expected losses approach. The Group measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses for trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents and contract assets. Implementation of IFRS 9 resulted in impairment of non-matured trade receivables. The difference between the previous carrying amount of trade receivables measured according to IAS 39 and the new carrying amount under IFRS 9 as at 1 January 2018 amounted to PLN 14 million. Net effect of PLN 11 million (including deferred tax impact) was recognised as a decrease in the retained earnings as at 1 January 2018.

IFRS 9 made the consequential amendment to IAS 1 "Presentation of financial statements" which requires the Group to present impairment of receivables and contract assets as a separate line item in the consolidated income statement. The comparative amounts in the consolidated income statement for the 9 months ended 30 September 2017 were adjusted accordingly, with no impact on operating income. Previously, the Group presented these costs in other operating expense.

4. Statement of accounting policies

Except for the changes described in Note 3 and presented below, the accounting policies and methods of computation used in the preparation of the Condensed Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements are materially consistent with those described in Notes 2 and 31 to the audited IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2017.

The new accounting policy relating to revenue and contract costs applied by the Group from 1 January 2018 is presented below:

4.1. Revenue

Revenue from the Group's activities is recognised and presented in accordance with IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers".

Separable components of bundled offers

For the sale of multiple products or services (e.g. in the mobile business for sales of bundled offers including a handset and a telecommunications service contract), the Group evaluates all promises in the arrangement to determine whether they represent distinct performance obligations i.e. obligations not dependent on each other. Sale of mobile handsets and sale of services in bundled offers are distinct performance obligations.

The consideration for the bundled package (i.e. transaction price) is allocated to the distinct performance obligations (e.g. sale of a handset and sale of a service) and recognised as revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied (i.e. when the control over good or service is transferred to a customer).

The transaction price is the amount of consideration (usually cash) to which the Group expects to be entitled during the enforceable period. The enforceable period is the period that is made enforceable through contractual terms or business practices i.e. the enforceable period length is impacted by practices e.g. when the Group creates or accepts a valid expectation to free the customer from certain commitments before the end of the contract by allowing commencement of a new contract. The transaction price does not include the effect of time value of money because the effect of financing component, in comparison to the transaction price, is not significant at a contract level.

The allocation of the transaction price between various performance obligations is made to estimate the amount to which the Group is expected to be entitled in exchange for transferring a promised good or service to the customer.

The Group is a service company and achieves the vast majority of its margin by selling telecommunication services. The sale of subsidised handsets (i.e. when an invoice amount for a handset is lower than the cost of a handset) is a tool to promote the Group's services and to attract customers. Therefore, in case of services sold with subsidised handsets, the Group allocates the subsidy to the service revenues. The Group estimates the amount of revenue that it expects to earn while pricing the service offer. Based on the rationale described above, the standalone selling price (i.e. the price at which the Group would sell a promised good or service separately to the customer) of subsidised handsets is estimated by their cost plus margin to cover additional costs connected with the sale of handsets, such as transport costs or logistic costs. The estimated margin is insignificant. Therefore, it is disregarded from the cost plus margin formula for the sake of practicality.

If the Group is able to sell a handset with a profit (i.e. when an invoice amount for a handset is higher than the cost of a handset in bundled offer), it allocates the handset profit to the handset revenue.

While defining the stand-alone selling price of any performance obligation, firstly, the Group's observable price should be identified i.e. the price of good or service when the Group sells that good or service separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers. In case of the lack of an entity observable price, other methods of valuation of an obligation should be used. The stand-alone selling price of a service is defined for each different category of customers. Categories of customers are dependent on the service content, commitment period and consumption profile. Therefore, the SIMO price (the price of a service sold stand-alone i.e. not in a bundle with a handset) cannot be treated as a good proxy of the stand-alone selling price of a specific service sold in a bundled offer. Consequently, the stand-alone selling price of the telecommunication service sold in a bundled offer is determined by using an adjusted-market assessment approach and corresponds to the service price in the bundle adjusted by the handset subsidy recovered over the enforceable period.

Equipment sales

Revenue from an equipment sales is recognised when the control over the equipment is transferred to the buyer (see also paragraph Separable components of bundled offers). When an equipment is sold by a third-party retailer who purchases it from the Group, the related revenue is recognised when the equipment is sold to the end-customer because the Group acts as a principal in this process.

Equipment leases

Equipment lease revenue is recognised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease agreement, except for finance leases, in case of which revenue from sale of fixed assets, equal to the net investment in lease, is recognised at the commencement of the lease and finance income is recognised over the lease term.

Revenues from the sale or supply of content

Depending on the substance of a transaction and the Group's role in the transaction, the Group can act as a principal and recognise revenue at the gross amount, separately from costs, or as an agent and recognise revenue in the amount net of costs. The assessment of the role of the Group is based on the notion of the control and the indicators of the control. The Group is treated as a principal if it controls a good or a service before the good or service is transferred to a customer.

The Group is considered as an agent if the Group's performance obligation is to arrange for the provision of a good or a service to the client by another party, i.e. when it does not control the specified good or service provided by another party before that good or service is transferred to the customer.

Service revenue

Telephone service and Internet access subscription fees are recognised in revenue on a straight-line basis over the service period.

Charges for incoming and outgoing telephone calls are recognised in revenue when the service is rendered. Revenue from the sale of phone cards in mobile telephony systems is recognised when they are used or expire.

Promotional offers

For certain commercial offers where customers do not pay for services over a certain period in exchange for signing up for a fixed period (time-based incentives), the total revenue generated under the contract is spread over the enforceable period.

Material rights

Material right is an option to purchase additional goods or services with a discount that is incremental to discounts typically given for those goods or services. The Group has not identified any material rights in the contracts with customers which would need to be treated as separate performance obligations.

4.2. Subscriber acquisition costs, advertising and related costs

Incremental acquisition and retention costs (e.g. commissions paid to retailers for acquisition or retention of contracts) are expensed as costs over the enforceable period of contracts. Advertising, promotion, sponsoring, communication and brand marketing costs are expensed as incurred.

5. Revenue

New disaggregation of revenue that better reflects current commercial policy of the Group was introduced in 2018 as presented below:

Mobile only services Revenue from mobile offers (excluding consumer market convergent offers) and Machine to Machine connectivity.
Mobile only services revenue does not include equipment sales, incoming and visitor roaming revenue.
Fixed only services Revenue from fixed offers (excluding consumer market convergent offers) including mainly (i) fixed broadband
(including wireless for fixed), (ii) fixed narrowband, and (iii) data infrastructure and networks for business customers.
Convergent services
(consumer market)
Revenue from consumer market convergent offers. A convergent offer is defined as an offer combining at least
a broadband access and a mobile voice contract with a financial benefit (excluding MVNOs). Convergent services
revenue does not include equipment sales, incoming and visitor roaming revenue.
Equipment sales Revenue from all retail mobile and fixed equipment sales, excluding equipment sales associated with the supply of IT
and integration services.
IT and integration
services
Revenue from ICT (Information and Communications Technology) services and Internet of Things services, including
equipment sales associated with the supply of these services.
Wholesale Revenue from telecom operators for (i) mobile: incoming, visitor roaming, domestic mobile interconnection
(i.e. domestic roaming agreement and network sharing) and MVNO, (ii) fixed carriers services, and (iii) other
(mainly data infrastructure and networks).
Other revenue Include (i) equipment sales to brokers and dealers, (ii) revenue from infrastructure projects, and (iii) other
miscellaneous revenue e.g. from property rentals, research and development activity.

To facilitate comparability between periods following the modified retrospective approach to adoption of IFRS 15, revenue for the 3 and 9 months ended 30 September 2018 is presented also on an "IAS 18 comparable basis", i.e. calculated under IAS 18 and other standards and interpretations concerning revenue recognition applicable in 2017. More information on IFRS 15 and its application by the Group in 2018 is presented in Notes 3.2 and 4.

6. Explanatory comments about the seasonality or cyclicality of interim Group operations

The Group's activities are subject to some seasonality. The fourth quarter is typically a peak sales season with high commercial spending and with increased capital expenditures resulting from investment cycle management applied by the Group. Seasonally high capital expenditures in the fourth quarter are followed by higher payments to fixed assets suppliers in the first quarter of the subsequent year resulting in higher cash used in investing activities.

7. Items affecting assets, liabilities, equity, net income or cash flows that are unusual because of their nature, size or incidence

On 23 July 2018, the Company and T-Mobile Polska signed a long term contract on telecommunications access to Orange Polska's fibre network in the form of Bitstream Access ("BSA"). Orange Polska will provide wholesale access to its network in order to provide BSA service on the Company's own fibre infrastructure for T-Mobile's clients in multi-family houses in deregulated areas. The fees under the contract comprise PLN 275 million of upfront fee and a monthly fee for each customer. Cash flows from operating activities for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 include a receipt of first instalment of upfront fee amounting to PLN 138 million and a refund of costs related to integration of IT systems which is presented as contract liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Cash flows from operating activities for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 include a payment of European Commission fine with accrued interest in a total amount of PLN 646 million (see Note 11).

Gains on disposal of assets for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 included PLN 111 million of gains on disposal of real estate.

The amount of trade payables subject to reverse factoring decreased from PLN 224 million as at 31 December 2017 to PLN 179 million as at 30 September 2018. These payables are presented together with the remaining balance of trade payables, as analysis conducted by the Group indicates they have retained their trade nature.

Operational Programme "Digital Poland"

In 2017, the Group concluded agreements with the "Digital Poland" Project Centre for co-financing of investment projects under the second contest of the Operational Programme "Digital Poland" ("Programme"). The Programme aims to strengthen digital foundations for the national development including common access to high-speed Internet, effective and user-friendly public e-services and a continuously rising level of digital competences of the society. The Group was granted PLN 0.7 billion from the Programme funds. In 2017 the Group received PLN 297 million of advances for investment grants. Received advances are presented as cash and cash equivalents and other liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position. Grants are deducted from the cost of related assets when the assets are recognised.

In 2018, OPL S.A. concluded investment agreements with subcontractors related to the development of the broadband telecommunications network under the Programme for a total amount of PLN 1,045 million, of which PLN 508 million will be indirectly executed by its subsidiary. The subsidiary concluded agreements with external subcontractors for PLN 270 million. As at 30 September 2018, the Group's commitments for the purchase of fixed assets under the Programme, contracted for at the end of the reporting period but not recognised in the consolidated financial statements amounted to PLN 758 million.

Total investment commitments increased from PLN 507 million as at 31 December 2017 to PLN 1,453 million as at 30 September 2018 mainly due to commitments described above.

8. Net financial debt

Net financial debt is a measure of indebtedness used by the Management Board. Since the calculation of this aggregate is not defined by IFRS, the methodology adopted by the Group is presented below:

(in PLN millions) At 30 September At 31 December
2018 2017
Loans from related party 7,389 6,969
Other financial debt 227 113
Derivatives – net (liabilities less assets) (19) 63
Gross financial debt after derivatives 7,597 7,145
Cash and cash equivalents (475) (646)
Effective portion of cash flow hedges (3) (2)
Net financial debt 7,119 6,497

On 14 February 2018, the Group and Atlas Services Belgium S.A., a subsidiary of Orange S.A., concluded a Loan Agreement for PLN 750 million with repayment date in March 2023 and Revolving Credit Facility Agreement for PLN 1,500 million with repayment date in March 2022. The purpose of these new financing agreements was non-cash refinancing of the Revolving Credit Facility (granted by Atlas Services Belgium S.A.), which expired on 30 March 2018.

In the 9 months ended 30 September 2018, the net cash flows from issuance and repayments of the Revolving Credit Facilities from Atlas Services Belgium S.A. amounted to PLN 350 million.

As at 30 September 2018, the total outstanding balance of loans from the related party amounted to PLN 7,389 million, including accrued interest and arrangement fees. The weighted average effective interest rate on loans from the related party amounted to 1.94% before swaps and 3.45% after swaps as at 30 September 2018.

The total nominal amount of cross currency interest rate swaps and interest rate swaps, outstanding under the agreement with Orange S.A. concerning derivative transactions to hedge exposure to foreign currency risk and interest rate risk, as at 30 September 2018 was EUR 670 million and PLN 5,950 million, respectively, with a total fair value amounting to PLN 22 million.

9. Fair value of financial instruments

Derivative instruments are measured subsequent to their initial recognition at fair value. The fair value of derivatives is determined as described in Note 21 to the IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2017. Significant inputs to the valuation technique used by the Group to measure the fair value of derivatives are classified to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy described in Note 22.1.

The carrying amount of the Group's financial instruments approximates their fair value, except for telecommunications licence payables for which as at 30 September 2018 and 31 December 2017 the estimated fair value exceeded the carrying amount by PLN 85 million and PLN 113 million, respectively, due to significant change between the original effective interest rates at the date of the initial recognition and current market rates.

10. Dividend

In accordance with the recommendation of the Management Board of the Company there was no dividend paid in 2018.

11. Changes in major litigation and claims, contingent liabilities and contingent assets since the end of the last annual reporting period

The information hereunder refers to the matters presented in Note 28 to the IFRS Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2017 or describes major matters that occurred after 31 December 2017.

a. Proceedings by UOKiK

Proceedings by UOKiK related to pre-paid offers

UOKiK informed the Company that it had further prolonged the proceedings. The indicated date of prolongation is 31 January 2019.

Proceedings by UOKiK related to retail prices of calls to Play

On 2 January 2018, UOKiK discontinued the competition proceedings. UOKiK stated that there was no basis to determine that Orange Polska, Polkomtel Sp. z o.o. and T-Mobile Polska S.A. acted in breach of the competition law.

On 2 July 2018, P4 extended its claim of September 2015 for PLN 316 million by the amount of PLN 314 million (PLN 258 million and PLN 56 million of capitalised interest). The principal amount demanded by the extension of the claim corresponds to the amount demanded by P4's request for settlement filed with the court regarding the period from April 2012 to December 2014.

Proceedings by UOKiK related to tenders for mobile services

UOKiK informed the Company that it had further prolonged the proceedings. The indicated date of prolongation is 31 October 2018.

Magna Polonia S.A. claim towards Orange Polska, T-Mobile Polska, Polkomtel and P4 On 9 February 2018, the court, which examines Magna Polonia S.A.'s claim, decided to stay the proceedings until the Supreme Court issues its verdict in the competition proceedings.

b. Proceedings by the European Commission related to broadband access

On 25 July 2018, the Court of Justice of the European Union dismissed Orange Polska's appeal from the decision of the General Court and maintained the fine in the original amount. On 9 August 2018, Orange Polska paid the fine and the accrued interest in a total amount of PLN 646 million.

c. Other contingent liabilities and provisions

Apart from the above-mentioned, operational activities of the Group are subject to legal, tax, social and administrative regulations and the Group is a party to a number of legal and tax proceedings and commercial contracts related to its operational activities. Some regulatory decisions can be detrimental to the Group and court verdicts within appeal proceedings against such decisions can have negative consequences for the Group. The Group monitors the risks on a regular basis and the Management believes that adequate provisions have been recorded for known and quantifiable risks.

12. Related party transactions

As at 30 September 2018, Orange S.A. owned 50.67% of shares of the Company and had the power to appoint the majority of OPL S.A.'s Supervisory Board Members. The Supervisory Board decides about the composition of the Management Board.

The Group's income earned from the Orange Group comprises mainly data transmission, research and development services and interconnect. The purchases from the Orange Group comprise mainly brand fees, costs of interconnect and data transmission.

Orange Polska S.A. operates under the Orange brand pursuant to a licence agreement concluded with Orange S.A. and Orange Brand Services Limited ("OBSL"). The brand licence agreement provides that OBSL receives a fee of up to 1.6% of the Company's operating revenue earned under the Orange brand. OPL S.A. and OBSL renewed the existing contract for the period from 24 July 2018 to 31 December 2019 with no changes to the financial terms and conditions.

Financial receivables, liabilities, finance costs, net and other comprehensive income/loss concerning transactions with the Orange Group relate mainly to loan agreements concluded with Atlas Services Belgium S.A. and agreement with Orange S.A. concerning derivative transactions to hedge exposure to foreign currency risk and interest rate risk related to the above-mentioned loan agreements. Cash and cash equivalents deposited with Orange S.A. relate to the Cash Management Treasury Agreement.

2. Statement of compliance and basis of preparation

2.1. Basis of preparation

These unaudited Condensed IFRS Quarterly Separate Financial Statements for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 (the "Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements") are prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 - Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") and with all accounting standards applicable to interim financial reporting adopted by the European Union, issued and effective as at the time of preparing the Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements (see also Note 3).

These Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Orange Polska S.A. IFRS Separate Financial Statements and the notes thereto ("IFRS Separate Financial Statements") for the year ended 31 December 2017.

The Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements include the income statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of financial position, statement of changes in equity, statement of cash flows and selected explanatory notes.

Costs that arise unevenly during the year are anticipated or deferred in the quarterly financial statements only if it would also be appropriate to anticipate or defer such costs at the end of the year.

These Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements are prepared in millions of Polish zloty ("PLN") and were authorised for issuance by the Management Board on 24 October 2018.

Adoption of standards in 2018

The following standards endorsed by the European Union were adopted by the Company as at 1 January 2018:

  • IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers". This standard has been endorsed by the European Union on 22 November 2016 and it is applicable for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2018.
  • IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments". This standard has been endorsed by the European Union on 22 November 2016 and it is applicable for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2018.

2.2. Adoption of IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers"

IFRS 15 establishes principles for reporting the information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue arising from an entity's contracts with customers.

The effects on the Company's accounts primarily relate to the mobile phone market and notably to:

  • a) the accounting for arrangements which bundle the sale of a handset with a discounted price and with customer subscription to a communication service for a defined period of time: the cumulative revenue does not change but the allocation between the handset sold and the communication service changes (higher equipment revenue up front, with an equivalent decrease in service revenue spread over time due to the subsidy mechanism embedded in the offers);
  • b) the accelerated recognition of revenue when the equipment is sold, offset by the supply of the service during the enforceable period, leads to the recognition of a contract asset in the statement of financial position which is settled against a receivable as the communication service is provided;
  • c) recognition of some incremental subscriber acquisition and retention costs (i.e. payments to retailers directly attributable to the contract with customer) over the duration of the contractual relationship;
  • d) recognition of a contract liability representing the Company's obligation to provide services or equipment to a customer for which consideration has been received or is due (mainly unused balances in pre-paid system and post-paid subscription previously recognised as deferred income).

The new accounting policy relating to revenue and contract costs applied by the Company from 1 January 2018 is presented in Note 3.

IFRS 15 is applied by the Company using the "modified retrospective approach" in which the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard is recognised as an adjustment to retained earnings at the date of initial application.

Adoption of IFRS 15 affected the statement of financial position as at 1 January 2018 as follows:

2.3. Adoption of IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments"

IFRS 9 defines three categories of financial assets – depending on the business model in which assets are managed and their cash flow characteristics:

  • assets subsequently measured at amortised cost if the financial assets are held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows, and the contractual terms of these financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest;
  • assets subsequently measured at fair value through other comprehensive income if the financial assets are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, and the contractual terms of these financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest;
  • assets at fair value through profit or loss all other financial assets.

IFRS 9 does not change the classification of the Company's financial liabilities.

On the date of initial application, 1 January 2018, classification and carrying value of the Company's financial instruments were as follows:

(in PLN millions) At 1 January 2018
Classification Carrying value
IAS 39 IFRS 9 IAS 39 IFRS 9
Trade receivables Loans and receivables Amortised cost 2,663 2,649
Hedging derivative Hedging derivative
Derivatives instruments instruments 35 35
Fair value through profit Fair value through profit
Derivatives or loss or loss 2 2
Cash and cash equivalents Loans and receivables Amortised cost 568 568
Total financial assets 3,268 3,254
Trade payables Amortised cost Amortised cost 2,856 2,856

Hedging derivative Hedging derivative
Derivatives instruments instruments 69 69
Fair value through profit Fair value through profit
Derivatives or loss or loss 31 31
Total financial liabilities 10,105 10,105

IFRS 9 changes the credit risk recognition model from the incurred losses to the expected losses approach. The Company measures the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses for trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents and contract assets. Implementation of IFRS 9 resulted in impairment of non-matured trade receivables. The difference between the previous carrying amount of trade receivables measured according to IAS 39 and the new carrying amount under IFRS 9 as at 1 January 2018 amounted to PLN 14 million. Net effect of PLN 11 million (including deferred tax impact) was recognised as a decrease in the retained earnings as at 1 January 2018.

IFRS 9 made the consequential amendment to IAS 1 "Presentation of financial statements" which requires the Company to present impairment of receivables and contract assets as a separate line item in the income statement. The comparative amounts in the income statement for the 9 months ended 30 September 2017 were adjusted accordingly, with no impact on operating income. Previously, the Company presented these costs in other operating expense.

3. Statement of accounting policies

Except for the changes described in Note 2 and presented below, the accounting policies and methods of computation used in the preparation of the Condensed Quarterly Separate Financial Statements are materially consistent with those described in Notes 2 and 31 to the audited IFRS Separate Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2017.

The new accounting policy relating to revenue and contract costs applied by the Company from 1 January 2018 is presented below:

3.1. Revenue

Revenue from the Company's activities is recognised and presented in accordance with IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers".

Separable components of bundled offers

For the sale of multiple products or services (e.g. in the mobile business for sales of bundled offers including a handset and a telecommunications service contract), the Company evaluates all promises in the arrangement to determine whether they represent distinct performance obligations i.e. obligations not dependent on each other. Sale of mobile handsets and sale of services in bundled offers are distinct performance obligations.

The consideration for the bundled package (i.e. transaction price) is allocated to the distinct performance obligations (e.g. sale of a handset and sale of a service) and recognised as revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied (i.e. when the control over good or service is transferred to a customer).

The transaction price is the amount of consideration (usually cash) to which the Company expects to be entitled during the enforceable period. The enforceable period is the period that is made enforceable through contractual terms or business practices i.e. the enforceable period length is impacted by practices e.g. when the Company creates or accepts a valid expectation to free the customer from certain commitments before the end of the contract by allowing commencement of a new contract. The transaction price does not include the effect of time value of money because the effect of financing component, in comparison to the transaction price, is not significant at a contract level.

The allocation of the transaction price between various performance obligations is made to estimate the amount to which the Company is expected to be entitled in exchange for transferring a promised good or service to the customer.

The Company is a service company and achieves the vast majority of its margin by selling telecommunication services. The sale of subsidised handsets (i.e. when an invoice amount for a handset is lower than the cost of a handset) is a tool to promote the Company's services and to attract customers. Therefore, in case of services sold with subsidised handsets, the Company allocates the subsidy to the service revenues. The Company estimates the amount of revenue that the it expects to earn while pricing the service offer. Based on the rationale described above, the stand-alone selling price (i.e. the price at which the Company would sell a promised good or service separately to the customer) of subsidised handsets is estimated by their cost plus margin to cover additional costs connected with the sale of handsets, such as transport costs or logistic costs. The estimated margin is insignificant. Therefore, it is disregarded from the cost plus margin formula for the sake of practicality.

If the Company is able to sell a handset with a profit (i.e. when an invoice amount for a handset is higher than the cost of a handset in bundled offer), it allocates the handset profit to the handset revenue.

While defining the stand-alone selling price of any performance obligation, firstly, the Company's observable price should be identified i.e. the price of good or service when the Company sells that good or service separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers. In case of the lack of an entity observable price, other methods of valuation of an obligation should be used. The stand-alone selling price of a service is defined for each different category of customers. Categories of customers are dependent on the service content, commitment period and consumption profile. Therefore, the SIMO price (the price of a service sold stand-alone i.e. not in a bundle with a handset) cannot be treated as a good proxy of the stand-alone selling price of a specific service sold in a bundled offer. Consequently, the stand-alone selling price of the telecommunication service sold in a bundled offer is determined by using an adjusted-market assessment approach and corresponds to the service price in the bundle adjusted by the handset subsidy recovered over the enforceable period.

Equipment sales

Revenue from an equipment sales is recognised when the control over the equipment is transferred to the buyer (see also paragraph Separable components of bundled offers). When an equipment is sold by a third-party retailer who purchases it from the Company, the related revenue is recognised when the equipment is sold to the endcustomer.

Equipment leases

Equipment lease revenue is recognised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease agreement, except for finance leases, in case of which revenue from sale of fixed assets, equal to the net investment in lease, is recognised at the commencement of the lease and finance income is recognised over the lease term.

Revenues from the sale or supply of content

Depending on the substance of a transaction and the Company's role in the transaction, the Company can act as a principal and recognise revenue at the gross amount, separately from costs, or as an agent and recognise revenue in the amount net of costs. The assessment of the role of the Company is based on the notion of the control and the indicators of the control. The Company is treated as a principal if it controls a good or a service before the good or service is transferred to a customer.

The Company is considered as an agent if the Company's performance obligation is to arrange for the provision of a good or a service to the client by another party, i.e. when it does not control the specified good or service provided by another party before that good or service is transferred to the customer.

Service revenue

Telephone service and Internet access subscription fees are recognised in revenue on a straight-line basis over the service period.

Charges for incoming and outgoing telephone calls are recognised in revenue when the service is rendered.

Revenue from the sale of phone cards in mobile telephony systems is recognised when they are used or expire.

Promotional offers

For certain commercial offers where customers do not pay for services over a certain period in exchange for signing up for a fixed period (time-based incentives), the total revenue generated under the contract is spread over the enforceable period.

Material rights

Material right is an option to purchase additional goods or services with a discount that is incremental to discounts typically given for those goods or services. The Company has not identified any material rights in the contracts with customers which would need to be treated as separate performance obligations.

3.2. Subscriber acquisition costs, advertising and related costs

Incremental acquisition and retention costs (e.g. commissions paid to retailers for acquisition or retention of contracts) are expensed as costs over the enforceable period. Advertising, promotion, sponsoring, communication and brand marketing costs are expensed as incurred.

4. Revenue

New disaggregation of revenue that better reflects current commercial policy of the Company was introduced in 2018 as presented below:

Mobile only services Revenue from mobile offers (excluding consumer market convergent offers) and Machine to Machine connectivity.
Mobile only services revenue does not include equipment sales, incoming and visitor roaming revenue.
Fixed only services Revenue from fixed offers (excluding consumer market convergent offers) including mainly (i) fixed broadband
(including wireless for fixed), (ii) fixed narrowband, and (iii) data infrastructure and networks for business customers.
Convergent services
(consumer market)
Revenue from consumer market convergent offers. A convergent offer is defined as an offer combining at least
a broadband access and a mobile voice contract with a financial benefit (excluding MVNOs). Convergent services
revenue does not include equipment sales, incoming and visitor roaming revenue.
Equipment sales Revenue from all retail mobile and fixed equipment sales, excluding equipment sales associated with the supply of IT
and integration services.
IT and integration
services
Revenue from ICT (Information and Communications Technology) services and Internet of Things services, including
equipment sales associated with the supply of these services.
Wholesale Revenue from telecom operators for (i) mobile: incoming, visitor roaming, domestic mobile interconnection
(i.e. domestic roaming agreement and network sharing) and MVNO, (ii) fixed carriers services, and (iii) other
(mainly data infrastructure and networks).
Other revenue Include (i) equipment sales to brokers and dealers and (ii) other miscellaneous revenue e.g. from property rentals,
research and development activity.

To facilitate comparability between periods following the modified retrospective approach to adoption of IFRS 15, revenue for the 3 and 9 months ended 30 September 2018 is presented also on an "IAS 18 comparable basis", i.e. calculated under IAS 18 and other standards and interpretations concerning revenue recognition applicable in 2017. More information on IFRS 15 and its application by the Company in 2018 is presented in Notes 2.2 and 3.

5. Explanatory comments about the seasonality or cyclicality of interim Company operations

The Company's activities are subject to some seasonality. The fourth quarter is typically a peak sales season with high commercial spending and with increased capital expenditures resulting from investment cycle management applied by the Company. Seasonally high capital expenditures in the fourth quarter are followed by higher payments to fixed assets suppliers in the first quarter of the subsequent year resulting in higher cash used in investing activities.

6. Items affecting assets, liabilities, equity, net income or cash flows that are unusual because of their nature, size or incidence

On 23 July 2018, the Company and T-Mobile Polska signed a long term contract on telecommunications access to Orange Polska's fibre network in the form of Bitstream Access ("BSA"). Orange Polska will provide wholesale access to its network in order to provide BSA service on the Company's own fibre infrastructure for T-Mobile's clients in multi-family houses in deregulated areas. The fees under the contract comprise PLN 275 million of upfront fee and a monthly fee for each customer. Cash flows from operating activities for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 include a receipt of first instalment of upfront fee amounting to PLN 138 million and a refund of costs related to integration of IT systems which is presented as contract liabilities in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows from operating activities for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 include a payment of European Commission fine with accrued interest in a total amount of PLN 646 million (see Note 10).

Gains on disposal of assets for the 9 months ended 30 September 2018 included PLN 111 million of gains on disposal of real estate.

The amount of trade payables subject to reverse factoring decreased from PLN 211 million as at 31 December 2017 to PLN 163 million as at 30 September 2018. These payables are presented together with the remaining balance of trade payables, as analysis conducted by the Company indicates they have retained their trade nature.

Operational Programme "Digital Poland"

In 2017, OPL S.A. concluded agreements with the "Digital Poland" Project Centre for co-financing of investment projects under the second contest of the Operational Programme "Digital Poland" ("Programme"). The Programme aims to strengthen digital foundations for the national development including common access to high-speed Internet, effective and user-friendly public e-services and a continuously rising level of digital competences of the society. The Company was granted PLN 0.7 billion from the Programme funds. In 2017 OPL S.A. received PLN 297 million of advances for investment grants. Received advances are presented as cash and cash equivalents and other liabilities in the statement of financial position. Grants are deducted from the cost of related assets when the assets are recognised.

In 2018, OPL S.A. concluded investment agreements with subcontractors related to the development of the broadband telecommunications network under the Programme for a total amount of PLN 1,045 million, of which PLN 508 million will be indirectly executed by its subsidiary. As at 30 September 2018, commitments for the purchase of fixed assets under the Programme, contracted for at the end of the reporting period but not recognised in the financial statements amounted to PLN 988 million.

Total investment commitments increased from PLN 695 million as at 31 December 2017 to PLN 1,890 million as at 30 September 2018 mainly due to commitments described above.

7. Changes in financial liabilities at amortised cost excluding trade payables

The purpose of these new financing agreements was non-cash refinancing of the Revolving Credit Facility (granted by Atlas Services Belgium S.A.), which expired on 30 March 2018.

In the 9 months ended 30 September 2018, the net cash flows from issuance and repayments of the Revolving Credit Facilities from Atlas Services Belgium S.A. amounted to PLN 350 million.

As at 30 September 2018, the total outstanding balance of loans from the related party amounted to PLN 7,389 million, including accrued interest and arrangement fees. The weighted average effective interest rate on loans from the related party amounted to 1.94% before swaps and 3.45% after swaps as at 30 September 2018.

8. Fair value of financial instruments

Derivative instruments are measured subsequent to their initial recognition at fair value. The fair value of derivatives is determined as described in Note 21 to the IFRS Separate Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2017. Significant inputs to the valuation technique used by the Company to measure the fair value of derivatives are classified to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy described in Note 22.1.

The carrying amount of the Company's financial instruments approximates their fair value, except for telecommunications licence payables for which as at 30 September 2018 and 31 December 2017 the estimated fair value exceeded the carrying amount by PLN 85 million and PLN 113 million, respectively, due to significant change between the original effective interest rates at the date of the initial recognition and current market rates.

9. Dividend

In accordance with the recommendation of the Management Board of the Company there was no dividend paid in 2018.

10. Changes in major litigation and claims, contingent liabilities and contingent assets since the end of the last annual reporting period
