2. Basis for drafting the financial statements

2.1. Compliance statement

These half-year condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared based on International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 approved by the European Union.

The half-year condensed consolidated financial statements of the XTB S.A. Group prepared for the period from 1 January 2025 to 30 June 2025 with comparative data for the period from 1 January 2024 to 30 June 2024 and as at 31 December 2024, cover the Parent Company's financial data and financial data of the subsidiaries comprising the "Group".

These half-year condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, with the exception of financial assets at fair value and other assets and liabilities which valuation methods are described in the accounting policy. The Group's assets are presented in the statement of financial position according to their liquidity, and its liabilities according to their maturities.

The adopted accounting principles are consistent with the principles of the previous financial year, except for the income tax charge, which was calculated in accordance with the principles set out in IAS 34.30c and the new standards effective from 1 January 2025.

The Group companies maintain their accounting records in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the countries in which these companies are established. The half-year condensed consolidated financial statements include adjustments made in order to reconcile their financial statements with the Group's accounting principles.

2.5. Changes in the accounting policies

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the half-year condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the half-year condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2024, except for the application of new or amended standards and interpretations applicable to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025.

▪ Amendments to IAS 21 "The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates" - lack of interchangeability - not yet endorsed by EU at the date of approval of these financial statements - effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2025.

The Group has not decided to apply earlier any Standard, Interpretation or Amendment that has been issued, but has not yet become effective in light of the EU regulations. New or amended standards and interpretations that are applicable for the first time in 2025 did not have a significant impact on the Group's half-year condensed consolidated financial statements.

2.6. New standards and interpretations which have been published but are not yet binding

The following standards and interpretations have been published by the International Accounting Standards Board but are not yet binding:

  • Amendments to IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" and IFRS 7 "Financial Instruments Disclosures" amendments in the classification and measurement of financial instruments - not yet endorsed by EU at the date of approval of these financial statements - effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2026,
  • IFRS 18 "Presentation and disclosures in the financial statements" not yet endorsed by EU at the date of approval of these financial statements - effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2027 or later,
  • IFRS 19 "Subsidiaries without public accountability: disclosure of information" not yet endorsed by the EU at the date of approval of these financial statements - effective for financial years beginning on or after 1 January 2027,

Above new standards and interpretations which have been published but are not yet binding do not have a significant impact on the Group's half-year condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. Professional judgement

In the process of applying the accounting principles (policy), the Management Board of the Parent Company made the following judgements that have the greatest impact on the reported carrying amounts of assets and liabilities.

3.1. Material estimates and valuations

In order to prepare its financial statements in accordance with the IFRS, the Group has to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts disclosed in the financial statements. Estimates and assumptions subject to day-today evaluation by the Group's management are based on experience and other factors, including expectations as to future events that seem justified in the given situation. The results are a basis for estimates of carrying amounts of assets and liabilities.

Half-year condensed consolidated financial statements for first half of 2025 XTB S.A. Group

Although the estimates are based on best knowledge regarding the current conditions and actions taken by the Group, actual results may differ from the estimates. Adjustments to estimates are recognised during the reporting period in which the adjustment was made provided that such adjustment refers only to the given period or in subsequent periods if the adjustment affects both the current period and subsequent periods. The most important areas for which the Group makes estimates are presented below.

3.2. Exprected credit losses and impairment of assets

The Group recognises an impairment allowance for expected credit losses in accordance with IFRS 9 for all assets measured at amortised cost. This allowance takes into account forecasts and expected future economic conditions in the context of credit risk assessment. In particular In the event of objective evidence of impairment resulting from events occurring after the initial recognition of financial assets and resulting in a reduction in expected future cash flows, appropriate write-downs are charged to expenses for the current period. The Group assesses the impairment of overdue receivables and recognises a write-down for the estimated value of doubtful and irrecoverable receivables.

At the end of the yearly reporting period, a review is carried out of fixed assets, including intangible assets, to determine whether there are any indications of impairment. If such an indication exists, e.g. due to the expiry of a licence or decommissioning, the Group makes a formal estimate of the recoverable amount. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

Deferred income tax assets

At the end of the yearly reporting period, the Parent Company assesses the likelihood of settlement of unused tax credits with the estimated future taxable profit and recognises the deferred tax asset only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax credits can be utilized.

The Group recognises a deferred tax asset based on the assumption that a tax profit will be generated in the future enabling its utilisation. Deterioration in tax results in the future might result in the assumption becoming unjustified. The deferred tax asset relates mainly to the losses generated by foreign operations and subsidiaries in the initial period of their operation recognised in the balance sheet. The Group analyses the possibility of recognising such assets, taking into consideration local tax regulations, and analyses future tax budgets assessing the possibility of recovering these assets.

3.3. Fair value measurement

Information on estimates relative to fair value measurement is presented in note 33 - Risk management. The fair value measurement framework uses valuation techniques that are appropriate to 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. The methodology developed by the Group for determining fair value involves adjusting the fair value model to the characteristics of the financial asset being valued.

3.4. Other estimates

Provisions for liabilities connected with retirement, pension and death benefits are calculated using the actuarial method by an independent actuary as the current value of the Group's future amounts due to employees, based on their employment and salaries as at the balance sheet date. The calculation of the provision amount is based on a number of assumptions, regarding both macroeconomic conditions and employee turnover, risk of death, and others.

Provision for unused holidays is calculated on the basis of the estimated payment of holiday benefits, based on the number of unused holidays, and remuneration as at the balance sheet date.

Provisions for legal risk are determined individually based on the circumstances of a given case. The Group assesses the chance of winning particular case and consequently assesses the need of establishment of provision in case of a loss in relations to all court cases.

4. Adopted material accounting principles

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the half-year condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies applied in the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2024, except for the new or amended standards and new interpretations binding for the annual periods starting on or after 1 January 2025.

5. Seasonality of operations

The Group's operations are not seasonal.

12. Segment information

For management reporting purposes, the Group's operations are divided into the following two business segments:

  1. Retail operations, which include the provision of trading in financial instruments for individual clients.

  2. Institutional activity, which includes the provision of trading in financial instruments and offering trade infrastructure to entities (institutions), which in turn provide services of trading in financial instruments for their own clients under their own brand.

These segments do not aggregate other lower-level segments. The management monitors the results of the operating segments separately, in order to decide on the implementation of strategies, allocation of resources and performance assessment. Operations in segment are assessed on the basis of segment profitability and its impact on the overall profitability reported in the financial statements.

The Group concludes transactions only with external clients. Transactions between operating segments are not concluded. Valuation of assets and liabilities, incomes and expenses of segments is based on the accounting policies applied by the Group. The Group does not allocate financial activity and corporate income tax burden on business segments.

32. Capital management

The Group's principles of capital management are established in the "Capital management policy at XTB S.A.". The document is approved by the Parent Company's Supervisory Board.

The policy defines the basic concepts, objectives and rules which constitute the Parent Company's capital strategy. It specifies, in particular, long-term capital objectives, the current and preferred capital structure, contingency plans and capital planning principles. The policy is updated as appropriate so as to reflect the development in the Group and its business environment.

The objective of the capital management policy is to ensure balanced long-term growth for the shareholders and to maintain sufficient capital to enable the Group to operate in a prudent and efficient manner. This objective is attained by maintaining an appropriate capital base, taking into account the Group's risk profile and prudential regulations, as well as risk-based capital management in view of the operating goals.

Determination of capital-related goals is essential for equity management and serves as a basic reference in the context of capital planning, allocation and contingency plans. The Group establishes capital-related objectives which ensure a stable capital base, achievement of its capital strategy goals (in accordance with its general principles), and also match the Group's risk appetite. To establish its capital-related goals, the Group takes into consideration its strategic plans and expected growth of operations as well as external conditions, including the macroeconomic situation and other business environment factors. The capital-related goals are set for a horizon similar to that of the business strategy and are approved by the Management Board.

Capital planning is focused on an assessment of the Group's current and future capital requirements (both regulatory and internal), and on comparing them with the current and projected levels of available capital. The Group has prepared contingency plans to be launched in the event of a capital liquidity shortage, described in detail in the "Capital management policy at XTB S.A.".

As part of ICARAP, the Parent Company identifies significant risk factors and impacts and assesses its internal capital in order to define the overall capital requirement to cover all significant risks in the Group's operations and evaluates its quality. The Group estimates internal capital necessary to cover identified significant risks in compliance with procedures adopted by the Group and taking into account stress test results.

The Parent Company is obligated to maintain the capitals (equity) to cover the higher of the following values:

  • capital requirements calculated in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2019/2033 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 November 2019 on prudential requirements for investment firms and amending Regulations (EU) No 1093/2010, (EU) No 575/2013, (EU) No 600/2014 and (EU) No 806/2014 (IFR)
  • internal capital estimated in accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Development and Finance of 8 December 2021 on the assessment of internal capital and liquid assets, risk management system, supervisory audit and evaluation, as well as remuneration policy in a brokerage house and a small brokerage house.

The capital requirement calculated in accordance with the IFR regulation is the higher of:

  • fixed overheads requirement
  • permanent minimum initial capital requirement
  • K-factor capital requirement

At date of preparation of the financial statement the highest of the above values for the Parent Company is the K-factor capital requirement.

The Parent Company calculates own funds in accordance with Part Two of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) 2019/2033 of 27 November 2019 on prudential requirements for investment firms and amending Regulations (EU) No 1093/2010, (EU) No 575 / 2013, (EU) No 600/2014 and (EU) No 806/2014 ("IFR").

The principles for calculation of own funds are established in the CRR and IFR Regulations, "Procedure for calculating capital adequacy ratios of XTB S.A." the Parent Company and are not regulated by IFRS.

The tasks of the Committee include the development of a document on risk appetite, giving opinions on the risk management strategy, supporting the Supervisory Board in supervising the implementation of the risk management strategy by the Management Board, verifying the remuneration policy and its implementation rules in terms of adjusting the remuneration system to the risk faced by the Management Board. exposed brokerage house, to its capital, liquidity, and the probability and timing of earning income.

The Risk Control Department supports the Management Board in shaping, reviewing and updating the ICARAP rules in the event of the emergence of new types of risk, significant changes in the strategy and action plans. This department also monitors suitability and effectiveness of the implemented risk management system, identifies, monitors and controls the risks of the Group's own investments, determines the total capital requirements and estimates internal capital.

The Risk Control Department is managed by the Member of the Management Board responsible for the supervision of the risk management system.

The Parent Company's Supervisory Board approves risk management system.

33.1. Fair value

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in a normal transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

33.1.1. Carrying amount and fair value

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is estimated as being close to their carrying amount.

The fair value of loans granted and other receivables, amounts due to clients and other liabilities is estimated as being close to their carrying amount in view of the short-term maturities of these balance sheet items.

33.1.2. Fair value hierarchy

The Group discloses fair value measurement of financial instruments carried at fair value, applying the following fair value hierarchy which reflects the significance of input data used to establish the fair value:

  • Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for the assets or liabilities;
  • Level 2: input data other than quoted prices classified in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. based on prices). This category includes financial assets and liabilities measured using prices quoted in active markets for identical assets, prices quoted in active markets for identical assets considered less active or other valuation methods where all significant inputs originate directly or indirectly from the markets;
  • Level 3: input data for valuation of a given asset or liability is not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

In the periods covered by the condensed consolidated financial statements, there were no transfers of items between the levels of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of contracts for differences (CFDs) is determined based on the market prices of underlying instruments, derived from independent sources, i.e. from reliable liquidity suppliers and reputable news, adjusted for the spread specified by the Group. The valuation is performed using closing prices or the last bid and ask prices. CFDs are measured as the difference between the current price and the opening price, taking account of accrued commissions and swap points.

The impact of adjustments due to credit risk of the contractor, estimated by the Group, was insignificant from the point of view of the general estimation of derivative transactions concluded by the Group. Therefore, the Group does not recognise the impact of unobservable input data used for the estimation of derivative transactions as significant and, pursuant to IFRS 13.73, does not classify such transactions as level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

33.2. Market risk

In the period covered by these consolidated financial statements, the Group entered into OTC contracts for differences (CFDs). The Group may also enter into forward contracts on its own account on regulated stock markets.

The following risks are specified, depending on the risk factor:

  • Currency risk connected with fluctuations of exchange rates
  • Interest rate risk
  • Commodity price risk
  • Equity investment price risk

The Group's key market risk management objective is to mitigate the impact of such risk on the profitability of its operations. The Group's practice in this area is consistent with the following principles.

Half-year condensed consolidated financial statements for first half of 2025 XTB S.A. Group

As part of the internal procedures, the Group applies limits to mitigate market risk connected with maintaining open positions on financial instruments. These are, in particular: a maximum open position on a given instrument, currency exposure limits, maximum value of a single instruction. The Trading Department monitors open positions subject to limits on a current basis, and in case of excesses, enters into appropriate hedging transactions. The Risk Control Department reviews the limit usage on a regular basis, and controls the hedges entered into.

33.2.1. Currency risk

The Group enters into transactions principally in instruments bearing currency risk. Aside from transactions where the FX rate is an underlying instrument, the Group also offers instruments which price is denominated in foreign currencies. Also, the Group has assets in foreign currencies, i.e. the so-called currency positions. Currency positions include the brokerage's own funds denominated in foreign currencies held for the purpose of settling transactions in foreign markets and connected with foreign operations.

The carrying amount of the Group's assets and liabilities in foreign currencies as at the balance sheet date is presented below. The values for all base currencies are expressed in PLN'000:

Half-year condensed consolidated financial statements for first half of 2025 XTB S.A. Group

A change in exchange rates, in particular, the PLN exchange rate, affects the balance sheet valuation of the Group's financial instruments and the result on translation of foreign currency balances of other balance sheet items. Sensitivity to exchange rate fluctuations was calculated with the assumption that all foreign currency rates change by ±5% to PLN. The carrying amount of financial instruments was revalued.

The sensitivity of the Group's equity and profit before tax to a 5% increase or decrease of the PLN exchange rate is presented below:

SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED

Equity 4 776 (4 776) 4 556 (4 556)

The sensitivity of equity is connected with foreign exchange differences in the translation of value in functional currencies of the foreign operations.

33.2.2. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk of exposure of the current and future financial result and equity of the Group to the adverse impact of exchange rate fluctuations. Such risk may result from the contracts entered into by the Group, where receivables or liabilities are dependent upon exchange rates as well as from holding assets or liabilities dependent on exchange rates. The basic interest rate risk for the Group is the mismatch of interest rates on bank accounts and bank deposits on which the Group deposit its own cash, the mismatch in the interest rates the Group pays its clients for holding free funds in their cash accounts, and the impact of interest rate volatility on the valuation of the Group's treasury, government-guaranteed bonds and corporation bonds.

In addition, the source of the Group's profit variability associated with the level of market interest rates, are amounts paid and received in connection with the occurrence of the difference in interest rates for different currencies (swap points) as well as potential debt instruments.

Since the Group maintains a low duration of assets and liabilities and minimises the duration gap, sensitivity of the market value of assets and liabilities to calculations of market interest rates is very low.

Sensitivity analysis of financial assets and liabilities where cash flows are exposed to interest rate risk

The structure of financial assets and liabilities where cash flows are exposed to interest rate risk is as follows:

33.3. Liquidity risk

For the Group, liquidity risk is the risk of losing its payment liquidity, i.e. the risk of losing capacity to finance its assets and to perform its obligations in a timely manner in the course of normal operations or in other predictable circumstances with no risk of loss. In its liquidity analysis, the Group takes into consideration current possibility of generation of liquid assets, future needs, alternative scenarios and payment liquidity contingency plans.

The objective of liquidity management in XTB is to maintain the amount of cash on the appropriate bank accounts that will cover all the operations necessary to be carried on such accounts. For this purpose, the Group has implemented, among others, limits for the concentration of cash in banks by forming one banking group in order to limit excessive liquidity concentration in related parties. In order to manage liquidity in relation to certain bank accounts associated with the operations of financial instruments, the Group uses the liquidity model of which the essence is to determine the safe area of the state of free cash flow that does not require corrective action. Where the upper limit is achieved, the Group makes a transfer to the appropriate current account corresponding to the surplus above the optimum level. Similarly, if the cash in the account falls to the lower limit, the Group makes a transfer of funds from the current account to the appropriate account in order to bring cash to the optimum level.

The procedure also provides for the possibility of deviating from its application, and such procedure requires the consent of at least two members of the Parent Company's Management. Information on deviations is transmitted to the Risk Control Department of the Parent Company.

The Parent Company has also implemented liquidity contingency plans, which were not used in the period covered by the financial statements and in the comparative period, due to the fact that the amount of the most liquid assets (own cash and cash equivalents and Treasury bonds and bonds guaranteed by the Treasury) greatly exceeds the amount of liabilities.

As part of ongoing business and the tasks related to liquidity risk management, the managers of appropriate organisational units of the Parent Company monitor the balance of funds deposited in the account in the context of planned liquidity needs related to the Parent Company's operating activities. In the ICARAP process, the Parent Company, among other things, identifies factors relevant to liquidity and funding risks and assesses the adequacy of the level of liquid assets relative to the estimated level to ensure coverage of both current and future as well as potential extreme liquidity needs. Supervision and control activities over the balance of cash accounts are also carried out by the Risk Control Department on a daily basis.

Half-year condensed consolidated financial statements for first half of 2025 XTB S.A. Group

In accordance with the IFR regulation, from 26 September 2021, the Parent Company maintains an amount of liquid assets equivalent to at least one third of the requirement for fixed indirect costs. The Parent Company's liquid assets for the purposes of IFR include, inter alia, unencumbered own funds deposited in bank accounts and Treasury bonds or bonds guaranteed by the Treasury denominated in PLN. As of the date of these financial statements, the Parent Company had a 11-times higher level of liquid assets than required by the IFR regulation.

The contractual payment periods of financial assets and liabilities are presented below. The marginal and cumulative contractual liquidity gap, calculated as the difference between total assets and total liabilities for each maturity bucket, is presented for specific payment periods.

* As at 30 June 2025 the maximum exposure to credit risk for financial assets at fair value through P&L, not including the collateral received, was PLN 549 727 thousand (as at 31 December 2024: PLN 487 458 thousand). This exposure was collateralized with clients' cash, which, as at 30 June 2025, covered the amount of PLN 526 537 thousand (as at 31 December 2024: PLN 476 195 thousand). Exposures to credit risk connected with transactions with brokers as well as exposures to the Warsaw Stock Exchange were not collateralized.

The credit quality of the Group's financial assets is assessed based on external credit quality assessments, risk weights assigned based on the CRR, taking account of the mechanisms used to mitigate credit risk, the number of days past due, and the probability of counterparty insolvency.

The Group's assets fall within the following credit rating brackets:

  • Fitch Ratings from F1+ to B
  • Standard & Poor's Ratings Services from A-1+ to B
  • Moody's from P-1 to N/A

Cash and cash equivalents

Credit risk connected with cash and cash equivalents is related to the fact that own cash and clients' cash is held in bank accounts. Credit risk involving cash is mitigated by selecting banks with a high credit rating granted by international rating agencies and through diversification of banks with which accounts are opened. As at 30 June 2025, the Group had deposit accounts in 65 banks and institutions (as at 31 December 2024: in 63 banks and institutions). The ten largest exposures are presented in the table below (numbering of banks and institutions set uniformly for the reporting and comparative period and the counterparty credit risk concentration table, according to the recent period):

Financial assets at fair value through P&L

Financial assets at fair value through P&L result from transactions in financial instruments entered into with the Group's clients and the related hedging transactions.

Credit risk involving financial assets at fair value through P&L is connected with the risk of client or counterparty insolvency. With regard to OTC transactions with clients, the Group's policy is to mitigate the counterparty credit risk through the socalled "stop out" mechanism. Client funds deposited in the brokerage serve as a security. If a client's current balance is 50 per cent or less of the security paid in and blocked by the transaction system, the position that generates the highest losses is automatically closed at the current market price. The initial margin amount is established depending on the type of financial instrument, client account, account currency and the balance of the cash account in the transaction system, as a percent of the transaction's nominal value. A detailed mechanism is set forth in the rules binding on the clients. In addition, in order to mitigate counterparty credit risk, the Group includes special clauses in agreements with selected clients, in particular, requirements regarding minimum balances in cash accounts.

Due to the mechanisms in place, used to mitigate credit risk, the credit quality of financial assets at fair value through P&L is high and does not show significant diversity.

The Group's top 10 exposures to counterparty credit risk taking into account collateral (net exposure) are presented in the table below (numbering of counterparties fixed uniformly for the reporting and comparative period and cash concentration table):

Other receivables

Other receivables do not show a significant concentration, and they arose in the normal course of the Group's business. Non-overdue other receivables are collected on a regular basis and, from the perspective of credit quality, they do not pose a material risk to the Group.

33.5. Climat risk

The identified risks will be incorporated into the internal risk management system, which is managed by the Risk Control Department headed by the Management Board Member for Risk, and the purpose of the unit is, among other things, to ensure comprehensive and informed risk management within the XTB Group, securing the continuity of the organisation's processes and operations. The ESG Team, managed by assigned owners of individual areas, is responsible for identifying, verifying and monitoring climate risks. The Risk Control Department, reporting directly to the Member of the Management Board responsible for Risk, is responsible for incorporating ESG risks into XTB's internal Risk Management System.

Issues related to the current climate policy, climate objectives and initiatives undertaken and planned are described in more detail on the XTB S.A. website.

During the preparation of this half-year condensed consolidated financial statement, the impact of identified risks related to the climate was assessed and no significant impact of environmental issues on the presented disclosures was found.

34. Post balance sheet events

On 30 July 2025, the Parent Company allocated USD 1 557 thousand (PLN 5 752 thousand) for a further increase in the share capital of the subsidiary PT XTB Indonesia Berjangka, maintaining a 90% share in its capital.

The Management Board of the XTB S.A hereby announces that on 26 August 2025 the Supervisory Board of the Parent Company adopted a resolution regarding the appointment of Mr Bartosz Osiński as a Member of the Management Board for Risk.

3. Professional judgement

In the process of applying the accounting principles (policy), the Management Board of the Company made the following judgements that have the greatest impact on the reported carrying amounts of assets and liabilities.

3.1. Material estimates and valuations

In order to prepare its financial statements in accordance with the IFRS, the Company has to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts disclosed in the financial statements. Estimates and assumptions subject to day-today evaluation by the Company's management are based on experience and other factors, including expectations as to future events that seem justified in the given situation. The results are a basis for estimates of carrying amounts of assets and liabilities.

Although the estimates are based on best knowledge regarding the current conditions and actions taken by the Company, actual results may differ from the estimates. Adjustments to estimates are recognised during the reporting period in which the adjustment was made provided that such adjustment refers only to the given period or in subsequent periods if the adjustment affects both the current period and subsequent periods. The most important areas for which the Company makes estimates are presented below.

3.2. Exprected credit losses and impairment of assets

The Company recognises an impairment allowance for expected credit losses in accordance with IFRS 9 for all assets measured at amortised cost. This allowance takes into account forecasts and expected future economic conditions in the context of credit risk assessment. In particular In the event of objective evidence of impairment resulting from events occurring after the initial recognition of financial assets and resulting in a reduction in expected future cash flows, appropriate write-downs are charged to expenses for the current period. The Company assesses the impairment of overdue receivables and recognises a write-down for the estimated value of doubtful and irrecoverable receivables.

At the end of the yearly reporting period, a review is carried out of fixed assets, including intangible assets, to determine whether there are any indications of impairment. If such an indication exists, e.g. due to the expiry of a licence or decommissioning, the Company makes a formal estimate of the recoverable amount. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

Deferred income tax assets

At the end of the yearly reporting period, the Company assesses the likelihood of settlement of unused tax credits with the estimated future taxable profit and recognises the deferred tax asset only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax credits can be utilized.

The Company recognises a deferred tax asset based on the assumption that a tax profit will be generated in the future enabling its utilisation. Deterioration in tax results in the future might result in the assumption becoming unjustified. The deferred tax asset relates mainly to the losses generated by foreign operations and subsidiaries in the initial period of their operation recognised in the balance sheet. The Company analyses the possibility of recognising such assets, taking into consideration local tax regulations, and analyses future tax budgets assessing the possibility of recovering these assets.

3.3. Fair value measurement

Information on estimates relative to fair value measurement is presented in note 33 - Risk management. The fair value measurement framework uses valuation techniques that are appropriate to 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. The methodology developed by the Company for determining fair value involves adjusting the fair value model to the characteristics of the financial asset being valued.

3.4. Other estimates

Provisions for liabilities connected with retirement, pension and death benefits are calculated using the actuarial method by an independent actuary as the current value of the Company's future amounts due to employees, based on their employment and salaries as at the balance sheet date. The calculation of the provision amount is based on a number of assumptions, regarding both macroeconomic conditions and employee turnover, risk of death, and others.

Provision for unused holidays is calculated on the basis of the estimated payment of holiday benefits, based on the number of unused holidays, and remuneration as at the balance sheet date.

Provisions for legal risk are determined individually based on the circumstances of a given case. The Company assesses the chance of winning particular case and consequently assesses the need of establishment of provision in case of a loss in relations to all court cases.

4. Adopted material accounting principles

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the half-year condensed standalone financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies applied in the preparation of the annual standalone financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2024, except for the new or amended standards and new interpretations binding for the annual periods starting on or after 1 January 2025.

The capital-related goals are set for a horizon similar to that of the business strategy and are approved by the Management Board.

Capital planning is focused on an assessment of the Company's current and future capital requirements (both regulatory and internal), and on comparing them with the current and projected levels of available capital. The Company has prepared contingency plans to be launched in the event of a capital liquidity shortage, described in detail in the "Capital management policy at XTB S.A.".

  • internal capital estimated in accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Development and Finance of 8 December 2021 on the assessment of internal capital and liquid assets, risk management system, supervisory audit and evaluation, as well as remuneration policy in a brokerage house and a small brokerage house.

  • fixed overheads requirement
  • permanent minimum initial capital requirement
  • K-factor capital requirement

33.1. Fair value

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in a normal transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

33.1.1. Carrying amount and fair value

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is estimated as being close to their carrying amount.

The fair value of loans granted and other receivables, amounts due to clients and other liabilities is estimated as being close to their carrying amount in view of the short-term maturities of these balance sheet items.

33.1.2. Fair value hierarchy

The Company discloses fair value measurement of financial instruments carried at fair value, applying the following fair value hierarchy which reflects the significance of input data used to establish the fair value:

  • Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for the assets or liabilities;
  • Level 2: input data other than quoted prices classified in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. based on prices). This category includes financial assets and liabilities measured using prices quoted in active markets for identical assets, prices quoted in active markets for identical assets considered less active or other valuation methods where all significant inputs originate directly or indirectly from the markets;
  • Level 3: input data for valuation of a given asset or liability is not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Total financial liabilities - 171 806 - 171 806

In the periods covered by the condensed standalone financial statements, there were no transfers of items between the levels of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of contracts for differences (CFDs) is determined based on the market prices of underlying instruments, derived from independent sources, i.e. from reliable liquidity suppliers and reputable news, adjusted for the spread specified by the Company. The valuation is performed using closing prices or the last bid and ask prices. CFDs are measured as the difference between the current price and the opening price, taking account of accrued commissions and swap points.

The impact of adjustments due to credit risk of the contractor, estimated by the Company, was insignificant from the point of view of the general estimation of derivative transactions concluded by the Company. Therefore, the Company does not recognise the impact of unobservable input data used for the estimation of derivative transactions as significant and, pursuant to IFRS 13.73, does not classify such transactions as level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

33.2. Market risk

In the period covered by these standalone financial statements, the Company entered into OTC contracts for differences (CFDs). The Company may also enter into forward contracts on its own account on regulated stock markets.

  • Currency risk connected with fluctuations of exchange rates
  • Interest rate risk
  • Commodity price risk
  • Equity investment price risk

These are, in particular: a maximum open position on a given instrument, currency exposure limits, maximum value of a single instruction. The Trading Department monitors open positions subject to limits on a current basis, and in case of excesses, enters into appropriate hedging transactions. The Risk Control Department reviews the limit usage on a regular basis, and controls the hedges entered into.

33.2.1. Currency risk

The Company enters into transactions principally in instruments bearing currency risk. Aside from transactions where the FX rate is an underlying instrument, the Company also offers instruments which price is denominated in foreign currencies. Also, the Company has assets in foreign currencies, i.e. the so-called currency positions.

A change in exchange rates, in particular, the PLN exchange rate, affects the balance sheet valuation of the Company's financial instruments and the result on translation of foreign currency balances of other balance sheet items. Sensitivity to exchange rate fluctuations was calculated with the assumption that all foreign currency rates change by ±5% to PLN. The carrying amount of financial instruments was revalued.

The sensitivity of the Company's equity and profit before tax to a 5% increase or decrease of the PLN exchange rate is presented below:

SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED

Equity 1 462 (1 462) 1 106 (1 106)

The sensitivity of equity is connected with foreign exchange differences in the translation of value in functional currencies of the foreign operations.

33.2.2. Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk of exposure of the current and future financial result and equity of the Company to the adverse impact of exchange rate fluctuations. Such risk may result from the contracts entered into by the Company, where receivables or liabilities are dependent upon exchange rates as well as from holding assets or liabilities dependent on exchange rates. The basic interest rate risk for the Company is the mismatch of interest rates on bank accounts and bank deposits on which the Company deposit its own cash, the mismatch in the interest rates the Company pays its clients for holding free funds in their cash accounts, and the impact of interest rate volatility on the valuation of the Company's treasury, government-guaranteed bonds and corporation bonds.

In addition, the source of the Company's profit variability associated with the level of market interest rates, are amounts paid and received in connection with the occurrence of the difference in interest rates for different currencies (swap points) as well as potential debt instruments.

Since the Company maintains a low duration of assets and liabilities and minimises the duration gap, sensitivity of the market value of assets and liabilities to calculations of market interest rates is very low.

Sensitivity analysis of financial assets and liabilities where cash flows are exposed to interest rate risk

The structure of financial assets and liabilities where cash flows are exposed to interest rate risk is as follows:

33.3. Liquidity risk

For the Company, liquidity risk is the risk of losing its payment liquidity, i.e. the risk of losing capacity to finance its assets and to perform its obligations in a timely manner in the course of normal operations or in other predictable circumstances with no risk of loss. In its liquidity analysis, the Company takes into consideration current possibility of generation of liquid assets, future needs, alternative scenarios and payment liquidity contingency plans.

The objective of liquidity management in XTB is to maintain the amount of cash on the appropriate bank accounts that will cover all the operations necessary to be carried on such accounts. For this purpose, the Company has implemented, among others, limits for the concentration of cash in banks by forming one banking Company in order to limit excessive liquidity concentration in related parties. In order to manage liquidity in relation to certain bank accounts associated with the operations of financial instruments, the Company uses the liquidity model of which the essence is to determine the safe area of the state of free cash flow that does not require corrective action. Where the upper limit is achieved, the Company makes a transfer to the appropriate current account corresponding to the surplus above the optimum level. Similarly, if the cash in the account falls to the lower limit, the Company makes a transfer of funds from the current account to the appropriate account in order to bring cash to the optimum level.

The procedure also provides for the possibility of deviating from its application, and such procedure requires the consent of at least two members of the Company's Management. Information on deviations is transmitted to the Risk Control Department of the Company.

The Company has also implemented liquidity contingency plans, which were not used in the period covered by the financial statements and in the comparative period, due to the fact that the amount of the most liquid assets (own cash and cash equivalents and Treasury bonds and bonds guaranteed by the Treasury) greatly exceeds the amount of liabilities.

As part of ongoing business and the tasks related to liquidity risk management, the managers of appropriate organisational units of the Company monitor the balance of funds deposited in the account in the context of planned liquidity needs related to the Company's operating activities. In the ICARAP process, the Company, among other things, identifies factors relevant to liquidity and funding risks and assesses the adequacy of the level of liquid assets relative to the estimated level to ensure coverage of both current and future as well as potential extreme liquidity needs. Supervision and control activities over the balance of cash accounts are also carried out by the Risk Control Department on a daily basis.

In accordance with the IFR regulation, from 26 September 2021, the Company maintains an amount of liquid assets equivalent to at least one third of the requirement for fixed indirect costs. The Company's liquid assets for the purposes of IFR include, inter alia, unencumbered own funds deposited in bank accounts and Treasury bonds or bonds guaranteed by the Treasury denominated in PLN. As of the date of these financial statements, the Company had an 11-times higher level of liquid assets than required by the IFR regulation.

The contractual payment periods of financial assets and liabilities are presented below. The marginal and cumulative contractual liquidity gap, calculated as the difference between total assets and total liabilities for each maturity bucket, is presented for specific payment periods.

* As at 30 June 2025 the maximum exposure to credit risk for financial assets at fair value through P&L, not including the collateral received, was PLN 541 505 thousand (as at 31 December 2024: PLN 480 448 thousand). This exposure was collateralized with clients' cash, which, as at 30 June 2025, covered the amount of PLN 499 448 thousand (as at 31 December 2024: PLN 450 951 thousand). Exposures to credit risk connected with transactions with brokers as well as exposures to the Warsaw Stock Exchange were not collateralized.

The credit quality of the Company's financial assets is assessed based on external credit quality assessments, risk weights assigned based on the CRR, taking account of the mechanisms used to mitigate credit risk, the number of days past due, and the probability of counterparty insolvency.

The Company's assets fall within the following credit rating brackets:

  • Fitch Ratings from F1+ to F2
  • Standard & Poor's Ratings Services from A-1+ to A-2
  • Moody's from P-1 to P-2

Cash and cash equivalents

Credit risk connected with cash and cash equivalents is related to the fact that own cash and clients' cash is held in bank accounts. Credit risk involving cash is mitigated by selecting banks with a high credit rating granted by international rating agencies and through diversification of banks with which accounts are opened. As at 30 June 2025, the Company had deposit accounts in 30 banks and institutions (as at 31 December 2024: in 28 banks and institutions). The ten largest exposures are presented in the table below (numbering of banks and institutions set uniformly for the reporting and comparative period and the counterparty credit risk concentration table, according to the recent period):

Financial assets at fair value through P&L

Financial assets at fair value through P&L result from transactions in financial instruments entered into with the Company's clients and the related hedging transactions.

Credit risk involving financial assets at fair value through P&L is connected with the risk of client or counterparty insolvency. With regard to OTC transactions with clients, the Company's policy is to mitigate the counterparty credit risk through the so-called "stop out" mechanism. Client funds deposited in the brokerage serve as a security. If a client's current balance is 50 per cent or less of the security paid in and blocked by the transaction system, the position that generates the highest losses is automatically closed at the current market price. The initial margin amount is established depending on the type of financial instrument, client account, account currency and the balance of the cash account in the transaction system, as a percent of the transaction's nominal value. A detailed mechanism is set forth in the rules binding on the clients. In addition, in order to mitigate counterparty credit risk, the Company includes special clauses in agreements with selected clients, in particular, requirements regarding minimum balances in cash accounts.

Due to the mechanisms in place, used to mitigate credit risk, the credit quality of financial assets at fair value through P&L is high and does not show significant diversity.

The Company's top 10 exposures to counterparty credit risk taking into account collateral (net exposure) are presented in the table below (numbering of counterparties fixed uniformly for the reporting and comparative period and cash concentration table):

Other receivables

Other receivables do not show a significant concentration, and they arose in the normal course of the Company's business. Non-overdue other receivables are collected on a regular basis and, from the perspective of credit quality, they do not pose a material risk to the Company.

33.5. Climat risk

The identified risks will be incorporated into the internal risk management system, which is managed by the Risk Control Department headed by the Management Board Member for Risk, and the purpose of the unit is, among other things, to ensure comprehensive and informed risk management within the XTB Company, securing the continuity of the organisation's processes and operations. The ESG Team, managed by assigned owners of individual areas, is responsible for identifying, verifying and monitoring climate risks. The Risk Control Department, reporting directly to the Member of the Management Board responsible for Risk, is responsible for incorporating ESG risks into XTB's internal Risk Management System.

Issues related to the current climate policy, climate objectives and initiatives undertaken and planned are described in more detail on the XTB S.A. website.

During the preparation of this half-year condensed standalone financial statement, the impact of identified risks related to the climate was assessed and no significant impact of environmental issues on the presented disclosures was found.

34. Post balance sheet events

On 30 July 2025, the Company allocated USD 1 557 thousand (PLN 5 752 thousand) for a further increase in the share capital of the subsidiary PT XTB Indonesia Berjangka, maintaining a 90% share in its capital.

The Management Board of the XTB S.A hereby announces that on 26 August 2025 the Supervisory Board of the Company adopted a resolution regarding the appointment of Mr Bartosz Osiński as a Member of the Management Board for Risk.

2. Business model

The XTB Group's business model focuses on the person as the recipient of services and corresponds closely with the directions and objectives of the sustainable development strategy adopted by the Group. Its main focus is to provide clients with modern solutions to achieve their investment goals through instant access to financial markets from around the world. Key technology products helping to reach mass clients are XTB's proprietary investment platform and mobile app.

XTB Group's operating income arises:

  • from spreads (the difference between the bid and offer prices);
  • from the swap points charged (representing the cost of holding positions over time);
  • from the fees charged to clients;
  • from the net result (profits less losses) of the Group's market making activities.

In addition, as part of its operations, XTB earns interest income on client cash.

Diversification of revenues based on client segments

The Group diversifies its revenues by providing its services to individual and institutional clients.

INDIVIDUAL
CLIENTS
individuals
legal persons
▪ financial instruments trading services
▪ access to a wide range of investment products
▪ services provided under XTB brand
INSTITUTIONAL
CLIENTS
legal entities
▪ ensuring liquidity of trading in financial instruments
▪ providing trading infrastructure to other entities that
provide financial instrument trading services under their
brand for their own clients
▪ services provided under X Open Hub brand

Diversification of revenues based on business markets

XTB Group is also diversifying its revenues geographically, consistently pursuing its strategy of building a global brand. The main market on which XTB generates more than 20% of revenue each time is Poland. In addition, the Group provides its services to clients in Europe, the Middle East and Latin America.

XTB's management is placing the main emphasis on organic growth, on the one hand increasing its penetration of European markets, and on the other gradually building its presence in Latin America and Asia. Following these activities, the composition of the Group may expand to include new subsidiaries. It is worth mentioning that geographic expansion is a process carried out by XTB on a continuous basis, the effects of which are spread over time.

XTB's growth is also possible through mergers and acquisitions, especially with entities that would allow the Group to achieve geographical synergies (complementary markets). Such transactions are intended by the Board to be implemented only if they involve tangible benefits for the Company and its shareholders.

Factors affecting financial and operational performance

It is inherent in XTB's business model that revenues are highly volatile from period to period. The Group's operational and financial results are primarily influenced by:

The business model used by XTB combines features of the agency model and the market maker model, in which the Company is a party to transactions concluded and initiated by clients. XTB does not, strictly speaking, engage in trading in anticipation of changes in the price or value of the underlying instruments (so-called proprietary trading). The hybrid business model used by XTB also uses an agency model. For example, on most CFD instruments based on cryptocurrencies, XTB hedges these transactions with third-party counterparties, virtually ceasing to be the other party to the transaction (of course from a legal point of view it is still XTB). The fully automated risk management process adopted by the Company limits exposure to market changes and forces hedging of positions to maintain appropriate levels of capital requirements. In addition, XTB executes directly on regulated markets or alternative trading venues all transactions in equities and ETPs and CFDs based on these assets. XTB is not a market maker for this class of instruments.

As a general rule, the Group's revenues are positively affected by higher activity in the financial and commodity markets due to the fact that such periods see higher levels of turnover by the Group's clients and higher profitability per lot. Periods of clear and long market trends are favourable to the Company and it is at such times that it generates the highest revenues. Accordingly, the high activity of the financial and commodity markets generally leads to increased trading volumes on the Group's trading platforms. In contrast, the decline in this activity and the associated decrease in transactional activity of the Group's clients mainly leads to a decrease in the Group's operating income.

Given the above, the Group's operating income and profitability may decline during periods of low financial and commodity market activity. In addition, there may be a more predictable trend with the market moving within a limited price range. This leads to market trends that can be predicted with a higher probability than larger directional movements in the markets, creating favourable conditions for range trading. In this case, a higher number of profitable transactions are observed for clients, leading to a reduction in the Group's market making result.

The volatility and activity of the markets is a result of a number of external factors, some of which are market specific and some of which may be linked to general macroeconomic conditions, which may materially affect the Group's revenues in future quarters. This is characteristic of the Group's business model.

3. Development strategy

The development strategy of the XTB Group is based on five key ares aimed at building a strong brand valued by clients worldwide. XTB intends to systematically strengthen its market position by creating a diversified product offering that appeals to investors with varying preferences, financial resources, as well as levels of knowledge and experience.

As a dynamically growing fintech and an organization aware of its impact on the environment and society, the XTB Group incorporates ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) criteria into its business strategy, integrating them with its operational activities. In 2024, XTB adopted its ESG Strategy for 2024–2027, marking a significant step toward achieving responsible and sustainable growth.

4. The Groups' structure

XTB Capital Group comprises:

  • XTB S.A., which is the parent company,
  • 7 foreign branches of XTB S.A. and
  • 13 subsidiaries.

For the XTB Foundation, the first half of 2025 was a period of reflection and completion of ongoing projects, as well as the launch of new initiatives. Among the activities carried out once again were:

  • employee volunteering activities, including cleaning the banks of the Narew River in cooperation with the Clean River Foundation (Fundacja Czysta Rzeka);
  • conducting recruitment for the second edition of the educational program for teenagers, "Academy of Tomorrow: Finance with Class," as well as collaborating with the Polish Economic Society, within which the XTB Foundation served as the strategic partner of the National Economic Knowledge Olympiad final held in April this year.

Among the new initiatives were workshops on financial management and basic investing conducted for people with disabilities, beneficiaries of the Avalon Foundation, as well as a partnership in the program "Postcards from the Flood and Business Restart," aimed at assisting tourism industry entrepreneurs from Lower Silesia who were affected by last year's flood. Program partners offered legal, logistical, marketing, IT, training, and financial support.

Additionally, the XTB Foundation provided financial support to the Commandos of Life Foundation, which organizes sports camps called "Under the Wings of Champions" for children from care and educational institutions, collaborating with former XTB ambassador Joanna Jędrzejczyk.

Summary and Analysis of the Capital Group's Results Achieved in the First Half of 2025

In the first half of 2025, XTB consistently executed its established strategy, focusing on building its client base. As a result, the Group acquired a record-breaking over 361,000 new clients, representing a 55.7% year-over-year (YoY) increase. The total number of clients thus exceeded 1.7 million, marking a 53.0% growth compared to the corresponding period of the previous year. The number of active clients also reached a record high, increasing by 69.9% YoY from 502,600 in the first half of 2024 to 853,900.

In the first half of 2025, the XTB Group generated a consolidated net profit of PLN 410.1 million, compared to PLN 463.0 million in the prior year. Consolidated revenues amounted to PLN 1,160.9 million (first half of 2024: PLN 937.8 million), with operating expenses totaling PLN 608.7 million (first half of 2024: PLN 410.4 million).

Market volatility in the first half of 2025

The volatility observed in the first half of 2025 was comparable to that of the second half of 2024. One of the main factors influencing the markets was the economic policy of the U.S. administration under President Donald Trump. His decisions considered controversial, particularly in the area of international trade—contributed to a sense of uncertainty among investors worldwide.

Most popular instruments among investors

In the first half of 2025, based on trading volume, XTB clients most frequently traded shares of companies from the IT, energy, fintech, industrial (including defense), and biopharmaceutical sectors. Among the 20 companies with the highest trading volumes were also shares of XTB itself, which saw a price increase of 15.71% during H1 2025.

As for ETPs, investors showed the greatest interest in a variety of ETFs based on long-duration government bonds, as well as funds tracking the S&P 500 index and its variants, such as those focused on technology companies. One of the more notable ETFs—ranking in the top ten by trading volume in H1 2025—was based on the WIG20lev index, which reflects price changes of the 20 largest companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.

In the first half of 2025, the most frequently traded instruments among XTB clients were CFD contracts on stock indices, marking a shift from the same period in 2024, when commodity-linked instruments dominated.

In terms of the number of transactions, gold remained the most popular instrument. The price of the precious metal increased by approximately 27% since the beginning of the year, with 26% of the growth occurring in the first half, and Q2 alone ending with a 6% rise.

The second most popular instrument was the US100 CFD contract, which tracks the Nasdaq 100 index. It gained around 12% year-to-date, including 7.8% in the first half.

In third place in terms of trading activity was the EURUSD currency pair, which appreciated by 12.8% since the beginning of the year—13.7% of that occurring in H1. The elevated volatility of the US dollar was driven by concerns about the independence of the Federal Reserve and the risk of economic slowdown related to U.S. trade policy. The euro, in turn, benefited from the end of the interest rate cut cycle in the eurozone and growing expectations of progress in peace talks in Ukraine.

The fourth most popular instrument was the DE40 CFD, based on the German DAX index. Persistent investor aversion to U.S. equities favored capital flows toward Europe. The DE40 rose by 22% year-to-date.

Fifth place was taken by US500 CFD contracts based on the S&P 500 index, which rose by 5.5% in the first half of 2025.

4.1 Operating revenue

In the first half of 2025, XTB achieved a record revenue level of PLN 1,160.9 million (an increase of 23.8% year-overyear). Key factors driving this growth included a consistently growing number of active clients (up 69.9% YoY), combined with their high transactional activity, reflected among others in the number of CFD contracts executed in lots (up 41.5% YoY), as well as a decrease in profitability per lot to PLN 251 (H1 2024: PLN 289).

The second quarter of 2025 began with very high volatility caused by President Donald Trump's trade war. In the following weeks, the market clearly calmed down and started to return to the levels seen at the end of the first quarter of 2025. As a result, revenues settled at a slightly higher level, amounting to PLN 580.6 million (Q1 2025: PLN 580.3 million).

This level was influenced by: (i) a lower unit profitability per lot of PLN 229 (down by PLN 48 quarter-on-quarter); and (ii) higher client turnover in financial instruments, expressed by the number of contracts executed in lots – an increase of 413.6 thousand lots to 2,321.6 thousand lots (compared to 1,908.0 thousand lots in Q1 2025).

1 A lot constitutes a transactional unit for trading financial instruments. The size of a lot varies depending on the specific financial instrument. For CFD transactions based on currencies, including cryptocurrencies, one lot corresponds to 100,000 units of the base currency. In other cases, the lot size is specified in the instrument specification table, which is available here. The presented value does not include CFD trading on shares and ETPs, for which 1 lot equals 1 share.

Revenue structure by financial instrument classes

Considering the revenue structure by financial instrument classes, in the first half of 2025, the dominant position was held by CFDs (contracts for difference) based on indices. Their share in the total revenue structure amounted to 46.3%, compared to 37.2% in the corresponding period of the previous year. This was largely due to the high profitability of transactions on instruments based on the US index US 100, the German index DAX (DE40), and the US index US 500.

The second most profitable asset class was CFDs based on commodities, which accounted for 33.1% of revenues, down from 48.2% in the first half of 2024. This result was driven by the high profitability of transactions on CFDs related to gold, crude oil, natural gas, and coffee prices. CFDs based on currencies accounted for 15.6% of revenues, compared to 10.3% in the same period last year. The most profitable financial instruments in this class were CFDs based on the EURUSD currency pair and the cryptocurrency Bitcoin.

REVENUE STRUCTURE BY ASSET CLASS (in %)

Revenue structure by geographical markets

The XTB Group places significant emphasis on the geographical diversification of its revenue, consistently pursuing a strategy aimed at building a global brand. Poland remains the only country contributing more than 20% of the Group's total revenue, with a share of 50.9% (H1 2024: 48.7%). Due to its substantial share in the Group's total revenue, Poland is presented separately as the Group's largest revenue-generating market.

The principle has been adopted that revenues generated by a given client are allocated according to the country of the XTB office in which that client was acquired. The exception is the Middle East region, which also presents revenue from clients in this market acquired by the Belize-based subsidiary: XTB International Ltd.

1 The subsidiary XTB International Ltd., headquartered in Belize, acquires clients from Latin America and the rest of the world (excluding Europe). Clients acquired by this subsidiary who originate from the Middle East region have been excluded from this category.

2 Clients originating from the Middle East, acquired by XTB International Ltd., headquartered in Belize, as well as by XTB MENA Limited and XTB Financial Consultation L.L.C, both headquartered in the United Arab Emirates.

In 2025, the Management Board's efforts will focus on obtaining the necessary licenses and permits, as well as preparing the required infrastructure to commence operations in Indonesia and Brazil. Currently, the subsidiary in Indonesia has started offering clients shares and ETFs. The addition of CFDs to the product offering is planned for late 2025 or early 2026. Regarding Brazil, XTB is currently in the process of obtaining a license to operate in that market.

Regarding other markets, the Company can proudly announce obtaining a securities agent license in Chile, which allows it to offer shares of listed companies worldwide as well as ETFs. The local subsidiary has commenced operations, supported by a marketing campaign launched at the beginning of August this year. Additionally, as previously announced, a second office has been opened in Dubai.

Europe remains one of XTB's main markets. The Management Board regularly monitors the activities of its branches and subsidiaries, seeking opportunities to increase XTB's market share in the respective geographic areas.

Revenue structure by client segment

Segmental diversification of revenues is also important for XTB. To this end, the Group is developing, in addition to its retail segment, an institutional business under the X Open Hub (XOH) brand in which it provides liquidity and technology to other financial institutions. Revenues from this segment can fluctuate significantly from period to period, just as in the retail segment, a phenomenon typical of the business model adopted by the Group.

4.2 Costs

Operating expenses in the first half of 2025 amounted to PLN 608.7 million, representing an increase of PLN 198.3 million compared to the corresponding period of the previous year (first half of 2024: PLN 410.4 million). The most significant changes occurred in:

  • marketing costs, an increase of PLN 108.0 million resulting mainly from higher expenditure on online and offline marketing campaigns;
  • salaries and employee benefits costs, an increase of PLN 44.4 million, mainly due to an increase in employment;
  • other external services increased by PLN 26.4 million, mainly due to: (i) higher expenses for IT systems and licenses (an increase of PLN 15.0 million year-on-year); (ii) IT support services (an increase of PLN 5.0 million year-on-year); and (iii) legal and consulting services (an increase of PLN 2.7 million year-on-year);
  • commission costs increased by PLN 13.3 million, resulting from higher amounts paid to payment service providers through whom clients deposit funds into their trading accounts.

On a quarter-on-quarter (q/q) basis, operating costs decreased by PLN 22.9 million. The main driver of this decline was a PLN 17.7 million reduction in spending on marketing activities, both offline and online. Additionally, commission expenses related to fees paid to payment service providers – through whom clients deposit funds into their trading accounts – decreased by PLN 10.4 million. This was the result of a change in the fee settlement model, which contributed to cost reductions on XTB's side. In Q2 2025, there was an increase of PLN 2.9 million in other external services, mainly due to higher legal and advisory service costs, as well as a PLN 2.0 million increase in employee salaries and benefits, resulting from increased headcount.

3 The average customer acquisition cost is defined as marketing expenses in uring the period divided by the number of new clients in the same period.

As a result of XTB's rapid growth, the Board estimates that in 2025 total operating expenses could be as much as approximately 40% higher to that seen in 2024. Management's priority is to continue to grow its customer base and build its global brand. As a consequence of the measures implemented, marketing expenditures may increase by approximately 80% compared to last year, while assuming that the average cost of customer acquisition should be comparable to what we observed in 2023 – 2024.

The final level of operating expenses will depend in particular: on the rate of growth of employment and the amount of variable remuneration paid to employees, the level of marketing expenses, the rate of geographical expansion into new markets and the impact of possible new regulations and other external factors on the level of revenue achieved by the Group.

The level of marketing expenditure will depend on an assessment of its impact on the Group's performance and profitability, the pace of overseas expansion and the degree of customer responsiveness to the activities undertaken. The Group's dynamic growth, both in new and existing markets, will contribute to employment growth. In turn, variable remuneration components will be influenced by the Group's performance.

4.3 Clients

XTB has a solid foundation in the form of an ever-growing base and number of active clients. In H1 2025, the Group achieved another record in this area by acquiring 361,643 new clients compared to 232,316 a year earlier, an increase of 55.7%. Similarly to the number of new clients, the number of active clients was also at a record high and increased from 502,554 to 853,938, i.e. by 69.9% y/y.

The Management Board's priority is to continue to grow its client base leading to the strengthening of XTB's market position globally by reaching the mass client with its product offering. These activities are and will continue to be supported by a number of initiatives, including the launch of new products, targeted promotional campaigns or financial education dedicated to the Company's clients and those interested in the world of investments. The Management Board's ambition in 2025 is to acquire an average of at least 150 - 210,000 new clients per quarter. As a result of the ongoing activities, nearly 121.2 thousand new clients were acquired by the Group in July and in the first 25 days of August 2025.

4.4 Marketing activities

Alongside technological development and expanding the product offering, marketing activities remain a driving force for XTB. Their implementation is closely aligned with the Group's strategic objectives: steadily increasing market share in the global fintech sector, striving to achieve a leading position in the international investment services market, and acquiring mass-market clients.

In the first half of 2025, the XTB Group conducted numerous marketing activities across international markets as well as in Poland. During the first quarter, out-of-home campaigns were run using external advertising media such as billboards and posters in public spaces, including public transportation stops. In Poland, the campaign promoted the IKE account. In Q1 2025, XTB's outdoor and television advertisements appeared on foreign markets including the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany, Portugal, and Romania.

In the second quarter of 2025, XTB's marketing efforts focused on promoting a new product and continuing the process of building the global brand, including on new markets. In early April 2025, the introduction of PEA accounts to the offering for clients in France was accompanied by a promotional campaign, during which billboards featuring XTB's brand ambassador, Zlatan Ibrahimović, were visible on the streets of Paris and other locations. Posters also appeared in less typical places, such as selected golf courses.

In mid-April, a brand awareness campaign was launched in the United Kingdom. It ran until early June of this year. The main objective of the campaign was to increase recognition of the XTB brand. The campaign included outdoor advertising as well as traditional media (TV, radio) and online channels, with particular focus on mobile device users.

To ensure brand exposure in other key international markets, an outdoor advertising campaign was conducted in Chile to support the launch of operations of XTB's local subsidiary.

In May 2025, XTB's marketing team organized and hosted an event featuring Tyson Fury, the British heavyweight boxer. The event, titled "XTB. Where your money works – with Tyson Fury," invited 20 selected influencers from around the world, whose combined reach exceeds 60 million followers. Internet stars and creators from Poland, Europe, South America, and the Middle East took on five challenges inspired by the traits of a successful investor — ranging from reflexes and strategic thinking to mental resilience.

Shortly after the end of the first half of 2025, in mid-July, XTB launched a large-scale advertising campaign in Hungary, visible in locations such as Budapest Airport and other high-traffic areas of the city. This campaign was related to formal changes in the Group's operations on the Hungarian market, enabling local clients to access a broader product offering, including shares and ETP funds.

Further plans for XTB on the Hungarian market include Digital Out-Of-Home (DOOH) advertising, which involves digital advertising on external media such as LED screens and citylights, alongside simultaneous campaigns on television, VOD channels, radio, and online portals.

Sports marketing

In the second quarter of 2025, XTB's involvement in sports sponsorship was also evident. The brand's logo appeared on the shirts of players participating in two Grand Slam tennis tournaments: Roland Garros in France and Wimbledon in the United Kingdom. At the courts in Paris, the XTB logo was visible on the outfits of players including Marie Bouzková, Daniel Altmaier, Tereza Valentová, Giulio Zeppieri, Quentin Halys, Jelena Ostapenko, Markéta Vondroušová, Jaqueline Cristian, Rebecca Šramková, and Lois Boisson, who reached the semifinals of the tournament. During Wimbledon, the Company's logo could be seen on the shirts of Kamil Majchrzak, Dalma Gálfi, Anna Bondár, and Elsa.Jacquemot.

4.5 All-in-One investment application

The Management Board's ambition is for XTB to be recognized as the leading All-in-One investment application in Europe, offering clients easy, intelligent, and efficient ways to trade, invest, and save, while providing immediate access to their funds.

In recent years, XTB has been undergoing a transformation from a CFD broker into a modern FinTech entity delivering a universal investment application. This transformation will continue in 2025 and in the years to come.

4.6 Product innovations in 2025 and plans for the coming years

In the first half of 2025, XTB continued the intensive client acquisition process initiated in the previous year, with particular emphasis on individuals interested in long-term passive investing and broadly understood financial management. The Company consistently aims to attract new client segments by providing a universal investment application, implementing new products and services, and introducing changes that enhance the user experience on the XTB mobile app and platform.

The Company has been systematically preparing for all changes and implementations over a longer period, as evidenced by the continuous development of the Product and Technology Department, as well as the development and R&D work carried out by its team, including responsible deployment of artificial intelligence-based technologies.

XTB started the first quarter of 2025 by launching the eWallet service for clients in Poland. Nearly 22,000 clients activated the virtual wallet during this period, of whom 43% were from Poland and 57% from abroad. Since the end of March 2025, this service has enabled commission-free currency exchange via the XTB multi-currency card. This feature is available to all virtual wallet holders without limits or additional conditions. The eWallet service provides a multi-currency card supporting cashless payments in stores, mobile transactions, and contactless ATM withdrawals worldwide. It allows clients to hold accounts in 19 currencies, including EUR, USD, GBP, PLN, HUF, RON, CZK, CHF, JPY, and CAD, and to perform fast, free transfers between accounts. Clients have immediate access to their funds and can use a card issued under a Mastercard license by DiPocket UAB, an Electronic Money Institution registered with the Bank of Lithuania. The eWallet service is currently available to clients in Poland, the Czech Republic, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy.

Significant product offering changes, previously announced, were implemented at the end of March. These concerned product categories dedicated to long-term savings, including retirement goals. In Poland, pending orders were added to the IKE (Individual Retirement Account) in response to client demand. For clients in the United Kingdom, the possibility to transfer existing ISA (Individual Savings Account) accounts to XTB was made available, allowing for a full or partial transfer of assets.

In the second quarter of 2025, the PEA (Plan d'Epargne en Actions) account service was launched for clients in France. Holders of this account can invest in shares and ETP funds with favorable tax conditions, such as exemption from capital gains tax if investments are held in the account for at least five years. The maximum contribution limit for the PEA is EUR 150,000 per client.

Furthermore, shortly after the end of the first half of 2025, XTB introduced the long-awaited IKZE (Individual Retirement Security Account) in Poland. IKZE accounts can be held by any individual (non-joint account), including business owners, who are at least 16 years old and have tax residency in Poland. Gains from IKZE are exempt from the 19% capital gains tax, and the accumulated capital is inheritable. The account is subject to an annual contribution limit, which can be deducted from income in the tax return. Withdrawals can be made after the age of 65 and upon fulfilling a minimum contribution period of five calendar years, in which case withdrawals are taxed at a flat rate of 10%. Without meeting these conditions, funds can be returned with taxation according to the applicable tax scale in the given year.

In subsequent quarters of 2025, XTB will continue to pursue its strategy of building a universal investment application designed for every investor seeking effective management of their assets, both short- and long-term. The Company plans to introduce new products, including options and cryptocurrencies. The introduction of cryptocurrencies is closely linked to and dependent on the completion of the legislative process in Poland related to the adoption of the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA). While awaiting the conclusion of this process, XTB is working on preparing the necessary legal documents as well as technological changes in the app and platform to enable the addition of crypto assets to its offering.

The introduction of options into XTB's offering depends on approval by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) of the options pricing model. This process is currently underway, during which the KNF may submit additional questions regarding the submitted documentation.

4.7 Building competitive advantage in the fin-tech segment

XTB, as a technology player in the financial sector, works continuously to design and develop highly innovative, comprehensive solutions in the field of transactions and online investment in financial instruments. This makes the Company a FinTech organisation. The aim of the above work is to develop innovative technologies and solutions to further develop the product range in particular. XTB owns a number of proprietary technology solutions, including the state-of-the-art xStation trading platform.

In the first half of 2025, as a result of work initiated in 2024, the user interface of the mobile application was refreshed and simplified to make it more intuitive and to avoid overwhelming especially new clients with the number of available options.

Additionally, the Company launched an AI chat for a selected group of clients in

Poland. Following successful testing, this tool was implemented for all clients in Poland, Portugal, and the Czech Republic. The AI chat supports the operations of the Customer Support team.

In the second quarter of 2025, XTB's technology team focused on further improving the performance and security of the platform and mobile application. The 2FA feature was enhanced by adding the TOTP (Time-based One-Time Password) option, which generates one-time codes through popular applications such as Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, and Apple Passwords. The process of enabling 2FA was also simplified. Additionally, the eWallet service gained extra online transaction security through the implementation of 3D Secure, which verifies that payments are made by the actual cardholder.

To improve clients' awareness regarding safe internet usage, the Company has prepared and launched a dedicated website: xtb.com/cybersecurity. The site provides information on various fraud methods employed by cybercriminals and guidance on how to avoid falling victim to them.

The technological work continuously carried out by the Company aims to develop tools essential for the efficient operation of XTB's transactional systems, effective order execution, smooth onboarding of new clients, as well as further development of tools supporting internal company processes based on identified growth needs. Among the most important activities undertaken during the reported period was the modernization of the system architecture to improve efficiency and enhance the security level of transactions.

Research areas focus on the functionality and security of the operation of systems, processes and databases. Research and development work is also being carried out, aimed at developing new electronic trading systems.

In view of the business strategy adopted, which is based on the development of new technologies, the Product and Technology Department was separated within XTB's structure, where the vast majority of the staff are R&D professionals. The work in question has a significant, almost strategic impact on XTB's business operations. Not only do they translate into the level of revenue generated by XTB, but they are also play a crucial role in the process of building and maintaining the Company's highly competitive position on the global capital market.

The table below shows the number of people employed in the Product and Technology Department and the costs incurred by this department:

4.8 Dividend

XTB's dividend policy assumes that the Board of Directors recommends to the General Meeting of Shareholders the payment of a dividend in an amount that takes into account the level of net profit as presented in the Company's separate annual financial statements and a number of different factors relating to the Company, including the prospects for future operations, future earnings, cash requirements, financial position, the level of capital adequacy ratios, expansion plans, legal requirements in this respect and FSA guidelines. In particular, the Board of Directors will be guided by the need to ensure an adequate level of the Company's capital adequacy ratios and the capital required for the Group's development when making its dividend payment proposals.

The Board of Directors reiterates that its intention is to recommend to the General Meeting in the future to adopt resolutions on the payment of dividends, taking into account the factors indicated above, in an amount between 50% and 100% of the Company's standalone net profit for the financial year. Unconsolidated net profit for H1 2025 was PLN 411.4 million.

On the basis of Resolution No. 6 of the Company's Annual General Meeting of 14 May 2025, a dividend was paid to shareholders of XTB S.A. in the total amount of PLN 640.8 million, i.e. PLN 5.45 per share. The payment was made on 25 June 2025 and the record date was 16 June 2025.

XTB's total capital ratio (IFR) levels in H1 2025 are shown in the chart below.

Company's total capital ratio (IFR) in H1 2025

The total capital ratio indicates the ratio of own funds to risk-weighted assets, i.e. it shows whether the brokerage is able to cover the minimum capital requirement for market, credit, operational and other risks with its own funds. At the end of the first half of this year, the Company's total capital ratio was 197.8%.

As of June 30, 2025, the XTB Group's total own cash and bonds amounted to PLN 1,707.2 million, representing 23.3% of total assets, of which PLN 1,637.5 million was attributable to cash and PLN 69.7 million to bonds.

5. Factors that, in the Management Board's Opinion, may affect the results over at least next quarter

In the Management Board's opinion, the following trends are currently influencing and will continue to impact the Group's operations until the end of 2025, and in some cases, for a longer period extending beyond the current financial year:

  • The business model applied by the XTB Group (presented in section Description of operations of the Company and XTB Capital Group -> Business model).
  • Further growth of XTB's client base and reaching the mass-market customer. This is crucial for the continued dynamic development of XTB and building a global brand, which is directly linked to the ongoing expansion of the XTB Group's product portfolio with new products and technological solutions, including offering clients the Allin-One investment application that provides easy, intelligent, and efficient ways to execute transactions, invest, and save, while ensuring immediate access to their funds.
  • The Group provides services to institutional clients within the institutional business segment (X Open Hub). The products and services offered by the Group under X Open Hub differ from those offered within the retail business segment, and therefore are associated with different risks and challenges.

As a result, the Group's revenues from this segment are subject to significant fluctuations from period to period. The table below illustrates the percentage share of the institutional business segment in total operating revenues.

% share of revenues from
institutional activities in total
operating revenues
1.3% 4.4% 6.8% 1.3% 0.3% 13.2% 8.7%

PERIOD ENDED:

The level of volatility in financial and commodity markets in 2024, regulatory changes, as well as other factors (if they occur), may affect the financial condition of XTB's institutional partners, the trading volume in lots, and consequently XTB's revenues from these clients.

▪ Due to the dynamic growth of XTB, the Management Board estimates that the total operating expenses may increase by approximately 40% compared to the levels observed in 2024. The Board's priority remains the continued growth of the client base and building a global brand. Consequently, marketing expenditures may rise by around 80% compared to 2024, with the assumption that the average customer acquisition cost will remain comparable to the levels observed in 2023–2024.

The final level of operating expenses will depend in particular on the pace of employee recruitment and the amount of variable remuneration components paid to employees, the level of marketing expenditures, the speed of geographic expansion into new markets, as well as the impact of any new regulations and other external factors on the revenue generated by the Group.

The level of marketing expenses will depend on the assessment of their impact on the Group's results and profitability, the pace of international expansion, and the responsiveness of clients to the undertaken activities. The increase in the Group's workforce will be driven by its dynamic growth both in existing and new markets. Meanwhile, the amount of variable remuneration components will be influenced by the Group's performance.

  • XTB, with its strong market position and rapidly growing client base, is increasingly assertively building its presence in markets outside Europe, consistently pursuing a strategy of creating a global brand. The Management Board of XTB places primary emphasis on organic growth — on one hand by increasing penetration in European markets, and on the other by steadily expanding its presence in Latin America, Asia, and Africa. Following these activities, the composition of the capital group may expand to include new subsidiaries. It is worth noting that geographic expansion is a continuous process carried out by XTB, with effects spread over time. In 2025, the Management Board's efforts are focused on obtaining the necessary licenses and permits, as well as preparing the required infrastructure to commence operations in Brazil and Indonesia. The company assumes that starting operational activities in Indonesia will be possible at the beginning of 2025. Regarding Brazil, XTB is currently in the process of obtaining a license for that market, which is expected to take until 2025.
  • XTB's development is also possible through mergers and acquisitions, especially with entities that would allow the Group to achieve geographical synergies (complementary markets). The Management Board intends to pursue such transactions only if they bring measurable benefits to the Company and its shareholders.

Due to uncertainty regarding future economic conditions, the Management Board's expectations and forecasts are subject to a particularly high degree of uncertainty.

6. Management's Statement on the ability to achieve published performance forecasts for the year

The Management Board of XTB S.A. did not publish financial performance forecasts for 2025.

2. Information on sureties for loans or borrowings or guarantees granted by the parent company or its subsidiaries - to a single entity or a subsidiary of that entity, where the total value of existing sureties or guarantees is significant

During the reporting period, i.e., from January 1, 2025 to June 30, 2025, neither the parent company nor any of its subsidiaries granted sureties for loans or borrowings, or guarantees to any other entity or a subsidiary of that entity, for which the total value of existing sureties or guarantees is significant.

3. The information on the significant court proceedings, arbitration authority or public administration authority

As of June 30, 2025 and as at the submission date of this report the Parent company and its subsidiaries were not a party to any significant proceedings pending before arbitration authority. The most important of the ongoing proceedings are indicated below.

3.1 Court proceedings

The Company and Group companies are parties to several court proceedings related to the Group's operations. The proceedings in which the Company and Group companies appear as defendants are above all related to employees' claims and clients' claims. As at the submission date of this report the total value of the claims brought against the Company and/or the Group Companies amounted to PLN 16.2 million, which consists of one proceeding on employee claims, with a value of approximately PLN 80 thousand, eleven suits brought by clients with the total value of PLN 13.4 million and moreover, one proceeding regarding the alleged failure to apply financial security measures by the Company in which, the value of the dispute is PLN 2,8 million.

The most significant proceedings, in the Company's view, are:

▪ lawsuit dated August 2019 regarding Company's alleged illegal actions delivered to the Company in December 2019 – value of the claim is PLN 7 million. The management board finds client's claims groundless. The only reason for the loss of the customer was his wrong investment decisions. This has been clearly demonstrated, among others, during the audits of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (PFSA) in 2016, in the subsequent correspondence of the company with the supervisor, and in the expertise of an independent consultancy company, Roland Berger, which analysed the client's transaction history. The analysis confirmed that the customer's transactions were not delayed, and the timing of his orders was even faster than the average for other clients;

▪ lawsuit dated July 2020, delivered to the Company in November 2020 regarding the alleged failure to apply financial security measures by the Company. Value of the proceeding is approximately PLN 2.8 million. The damages were to consist in the Company's failure to apply financial security measures, which lead to effective appropriation of funds by an employee of the claimant, who was also a client of the Company. The Company considers the charges made in the suit to be completely unfounded. In June 2023, the court of first instance dismissed the lawsuit, finding no material violations on XTB's part. On August 22, 2023, the plaintiff filed an appeal. In September 2023, the files were transferred to the Court of Appeal in Warsaw. In September 2023, the file was transferred to the Court of Appeal in Warsaw, which served the appeal on XTB's attorney in March 2024. On April 9, 2024, a response to the appeal was filed. The court scheduled an appeal hearing for May 10, 2024, the hearing was subsequently postponed to June 21, 2024, July 9, 2024 and August 9, 2024 respectively. At a hearing on August 9, 2024, the Court closed the hearing and gave the parties the floor. Publication of the judgment was adjourned until September 9, 2024, November 8, 2024 and finally January 31, 2025. At a hearing on January 31, 2025 the judge reopened the closed hearing for the third time and adjourned the proceedings indefinitely.

3.2 Administrative and control proceedings

The Company received a nonfinal decision imposing a financial penalty of CZK 2 million (i.e., approximately PLN 343 thousand, based on the average NBP exchange rate as of June 30, 2025). The Company disagrees with the ruling and has filed an appeal.

▪ On October 17, 2023, a supervisory review by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) commenced, focusing on verifying whether the Company's operations comply with legal regulations, internal policies, conditions specified in licenses, principles of fair trading, and the interests of clients.

On May 16, 2025, the Issuer received a notification regarding the initiation of administrative proceedings by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) to determine whether there are grounds for imposing an administrative sanction on the Issuer pursuant to Article 167(2)(1) in connection with Article 167(1)(1) and Article 167(2a) of the Act of July 29, 2005, on Trading in Financial Instruments (Journal of Laws 2024, item 722, as amended, hereinafter referred to as the "Act").

Act on Amendments to Certain Acts in Connection with Ensuring the Digital Operational Resilience of the Financial Sector dated June 25, 2025

On April 18, 2024, a draft Act amending certain laws in connection with ensuring the digital operational resilience of the financial sector was published on the Government Legislation Centre's website. The draft aims to implement the DORA Regulation into the Polish legal system and ensure its application.

The key aspects of the Regulation include:

The Act was passed at the session held on June 25, 2025, and signed by the President of the Republic of Poland on July 31, 2025. The Act came into force on August 7, 2025.

Regulation of the Minister of Finance dated September 20, 2024, on the submission of information to the Polish Financial Supervision Authority by investment firms, state-owned banks conducting brokerage activities, banks referred to in Article 70(2) of the Act on Trading in Financial Instruments, and custodian banks

On July 2, 2025, a government bill concerning the handling of complaints by financial market entities, the Financial Ombudsman, and the Financial Education Fund was submitted to the Sejm. The draft legislation introduces an obligation for all financial market entities to accept complaints electronically, thereby enhancing accessibility for clients and streamlining communication and complaint processing. Furthermore, according to the proposed law, if a complaint is submitted electronically, the response in electronic form will be the default mode of communication, without requiring an additional request from the client. At the same time, the client retains the right to receive a written response if specifically requested. The bill is intended to come into force three months after its publication.

The draft is currently after the first reading stage in the committees.

5. Risk management

Key Features of Internal Control and Risk Management Systems Regarding the Preparation of Individual and Consolidated Financial Statements

The internal control and risk management system related to the preparation of individual and consolidated financial statements is directly overseen by the Management Board of the Parent Company. The Chief Financial Officer holds substantive supervision over the financial statements preparation process, while the Finance and Accounting Department of the Parent Company, under the supervision of the Chief Accountant, is responsible for the actual preparation of the financial statements. Cost control and analysis against established financial targets are also conducted within the Parent Company.

To mitigate risks associated with the preparation of financial statements, the Group annually subjects its financial statements, including those of its subsidiaries, to an audit by an independent auditor. Additionally, the Group continuously monitors the performance of individual business areas by comparing results with predefined financial objectives. The annual individual financial statements of the Parent Company and the annual consolidated financial statements of the Capital Group are audited by an independent auditor. The semi-annual financial statements of the Parent Company and the semi-annual consolidated financial statements of the Capital Group undergo a review by the auditor. Quarterly and semi-annual condensed consolidated financial statements of the Capital Group, as well as the annual financial statements of both the Parent Company and the Capital Group, are approved by the Management Board of the Parent Company prior to publication.

5.1 Risk management and control system

The operations of the XTB Group involve various types of risks inherent to its adopted business model, characterized by significant open positions arising from market-making activities, a high degree of complexity in its IT infrastructure, a very large volume of transactions, and numerous legal regulations applicable across multiple geographic regions where the Group operates. These risks may pose threats to the Group itself, its Clients, and the financial market as a whole.

To manage risks, the Group has implemented a risk management system comprising policies, procedures, mechanisms, and tools that support the management processes of individual risk types, appropriate to their significance. The primary objectives of the risk management system are to:

  • identify and assess the significance of various types of risks,
  • accurately measure or estimate the level of risks (especially for those that are difficult to quantify),
  • control risk levels by monitoring limits and taking appropriate actions in case of limit breaches or warning thresholds,
  • support the achievement of business objectives by controlling risk levels and ensuring compliance with the defined risk appetite.

The risk management system is organized within the framework of three lines of defense:

  • the first line of defense consists of operational units exposed to risk, in particular the Trading Department (risk related to open positions) and the IT Development Department (operational risk related to system development and functionality).
  • the second line of defense comprises units independent from the business operations, responsible for risk measurement, monitoring, and reporting, including the Risk Control Department.
  • the third line of defense is the Audit Department, which independently monitors and evaluates the effectiveness of the first and second lines of defense.

At the strategic level, the Management Board is responsible for establishing and overseeing the risk management policy.

A Risk Management Committee has been established within the Parent Company, comprising members of the Supervisory Board. The Committee's responsibilities include: developing a draft document on the brokerage house's risk appetite; reviewing the risk management strategy prepared by the Management Board; supporting the Supervisory Board in overseeing the implementation of the brokerage house's risk management strategy by the Management Board; and verifying the remuneration policy and its implementation to ensure that the remuneration system is appropriately aligned with the risks to which the brokerage house is exposed, considering its capital, liquidity, as well as the likelihood and timing of income realization.

The Risk Control Department assists the Management Board in shaping, reviewing, and updating risk management principles in response to the emergence of new risk types or significant changes in strategy and operational plans. This department also monitors the adequacy and effectiveness of the implemented risk management system, identifies and monitors risks related to the Group's own investments, determines the overall capital requirement, and estimates internal capital. The Risk Control Department reports directly to the Management Board.

The management system, including XTB's risk management system, is subject to an annual evaluation by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF) within the Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process (SREP). The assessment received in 2024 indicates the following:

  • Business model: The business model and strategy present a moderately low risk to the investment firm's ability to operate effectively.
  • Management: Deficiencies in management mechanisms indicate a moderate level of threat to the stability of the brokerage house.
  • Adequacy of liquidity resources and funding: The liquidity position and funding profile show no discernible threat to the stability of the brokerage house, considering the management and control mechanisms related to liquidity risk and funding risk.
  • Capital adequacy: The level of own funds indicates a low level of threat to the brokerage house's stability, taking into account the amount, management, and control mechanisms of the various risk types to which the brokerage house is exposed.

The Group is obligated to maintain capital resources adequate to the risks it undertakes (capital adequacy) and holds own funds at a level ensuring coverage of requirements arising from:

  • the provisions of the IFR Regulation,
  • internal capital requirements.

Adequate capital resources are intended to safeguard the Group's ability to operate in the event of the materialization of various types of risks.

An essential element of the risk management system is the risk appetite, which defines the thresholds of risk metrics that should not be exceeded and reflects the willingness to take on risk. The risk appetite, like other components of the risk management system, is subject to periodic review and potential adjustment in response to changing business conditions. The risk appetite statement is approved by the Supervisory Board.

5.2 Risk factors and threats

In the course of its business operations, the Group continuously monitors and assesses risks and undertakes actions aimed at minimizing their impact on the financial situation.

Liquidity Risk

The Company defines liquidity risk as the risk of losing the ability to meet payment obligations on time, i.e., the risk of losing the capacity to finance assets and fulfill liabilities in the course of normal business operations or under other foreseeable conditions, without incurring losses. Liquidity analysis involves ongoing availability of liquid funds, future needs, alternative scenarios, and contingency plans to maintain payment liquidity.

Currently, within the Brokerage House, the value of the most liquid assets (own cash funds) significantly exceeds the value of liabilities, hence liquidity risk is relatively low. These values are continuously monitored.

Quantitative data related to liquidity risk are presented in Note 33.3 "Liquidity Risk" to the consolidated and standalone financial statements.

Operational Risk

Due to the dynamic growth of the Parent Company, expansion of its product offerings, and IT infrastructure development, the Company is significantly exposed to operational risk. This risk is defined as the possibility of incurring losses resulting from inadequacies or failures in internal processes, human errors, system malfunctions, or external events. Legal risk is considered a subset of operational risk.

The Brokerage House implements a range of procedures for managing operational risk, including business continuity plans, contingency plans, and human resources policies. Similar to other risks, the Company adopts an active approach to operational risk by identifying potential threats and taking preventive measures to avoid their occurrence or mitigate their impact. A key part of this process is analyzing the frequency, location, and types of operational risk events.

Hedge Accounting

XTB does not apply hedge accounting.

Assessment of Financial Resource Management

The Group manages its financial resources through ongoing monitoring of its ability to finance assets and meet liabilities in a timely manner during normal operations or under other foreseeable conditions, without incurring losses.

In the liquidity analysis, current capabilities to obtain liquid funds, future needs, alternative scenarios, and contingency plans for maintaining payment liquidity are taken into account.

The objective of liquidity management at XTB is to maintain an adequate balance of cash funds in the appropriate bank accounts to cover all necessary transactions conducted through these accounts.

To manage liquidity in relation to certain bank accounts associated with financial instrument operations, the Parent Entity employs a liquidity model. The core of this model is to define a safe range of free cash balances that does not require corrective actions

If the upper limit is reached, the Parent Entity transfers the excess amount above the optimal level to the appropriate current account. Similarly, if the cash balance on the account falls to the lower limit, the Parent Entity transfers funds from the current account to the relevant account to restore the cash balance to the optimal level.

Operational activities related to liquidity management are also performed by the Trading Department and the Finance and Accounting Department.

Subsidiaries manage liquidity by analyzing expected cash flows and aligning the maturities of assets with the due dates of liabilities. Subsidiaries do not use formal models for liquidity management. Liquidity management based on liquidity gap analysis is effective and sufficient—no incidents of liquidity shortages or inability to meet financial obligations have occurred in the subsidiaries. In exceptional cases, subsidiaries may receive liquidity support from the parent company.

The procedure also allows for exceptions to its application, which require approval from at least two members of the Management Board of the Parent Entity. Information about any such exceptions is communicated to the Risk Control Department of the Parent Entity.

The Parent Entity has also implemented contingency liquidity plans, which were not utilized during the reporting period or the comparative period, due to the fact that the value of the most liquid assets (own cash funds) significantly exceeds liabilities.

As part of ongoing operations and tasks performed in connection with liquidity risk management, the heads of the relevant organizational units of the Parent Entity continuously supervise the cash balances deposited in bank accounts, considering planned liquidity needs related to the operational activities of the Parent Entity. The liquidity analysis takes into account current liquidity inflows, future needs, alternative scenarios, and contingency plans to maintain payment liquidity.

Daily monitoring and control activities over cash account balances are also conducted by the Risk Control Department.

Contractual maturities of financial assets and liabilities are presented in Note 33.3, separately for the consolidated and standalone financial statements. For each maturity period, a partial and cumulative contractual liquidity gap is disclosed, calculated as the difference between total assets and total liabilities for each maturity band.

Cybersecurity Risks

In connection with the rapid development of information technologies used by companies operating in financial markets, challenges related to ensuring the cybersecurity of provided services are gaining increasing importance. Criminal activities, including unauthorized access to client accounts and assets, unauthorized transactions and transfers, theft of confidential data, and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, constitute significant factors that increase the risk of financial losses for the company and its clients, as well as generate various reputational risks for the company's operations.

As a provider of financial services based on advanced technologies, the Group is aware of these threats and actively implements measures aimed at identifying risks, preventing their materialization, and mitigating their consequences. Internal policies and processes have been implemented to enhance resilience against cyber threats, including regular training sessions to raise employee awareness regarding IT security practices; ongoing monitoring to detect data leaks involving XTB employees and clients; and the establishment of a vulnerability management system and incident response procedures for security breaches. The Group is also engaged in collaboration with other market participants to exchange information about discovered system vulnerabilities, cybercriminal tactics, and methods to safeguard against such activities.

Furthermore, mechanisms to enhance the security of client data and assets against cyber threats have been implemented. These include, among others: deployment of two-factor authentication (2FA) for clients; requiring additional authorization for significant account changes; monitoring client transactions for unusual patterns that may indicate account compromise; and fostering a security culture through awareness campaigns educating clients about risks associated with using financial services enabled by modern technologies.
