September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024
State Treasury 60.86% 60.86%
Other shareholders 39.14% 39.14%
Total 100.00% 100.00%

According to information available to the Company, as at the date of publication of these financial statements, the State Treasury is the only shareholder holding at least 5% of the total number of votes at the General Meeting of Shareholders of PGE S.A.

About the PGE Capital Group

The PGE Polska Grupa Energetyczna S.A. Group comprises the parent company, PGE S.A., and 73 subsidiaries included in the consolidation. The consolidation also includes two jointly controlled entities constituting a joint operation, five associates and one jointly controlled entity constituting a joint venture. Additional information on the entities included in the consolidated financial statements can be found in Note 1.3.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the PGE Capital Group cover the period from January 1, 2025 to September 30, 2025 and include comparative data for the period from January 1, 2024 to September 30, 2024 and as at December 31, 2024. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, approved for publication on April 14, 2025.

The financial statements of all subsidiaries have been prepared for the same reporting period as the financial statements of the parent company and in accordance with consistent accounting principles.

The core business activities of the PGE Capital Group companies include:

  • electricity generation,
  • distribution of electricity, including traction networks,
  • wholesale and retail trading in electricity, energy origin rights, CO2 emission allowances, and natural gas,
  • generation and distribution of heat,
  • provision of other services related to the activities mentioned above.

The Group's activities are conducted on the basis of the relevant licences granted to each of the Group entities. The PGE Group primarily operates within the territory of Poland.

Going concern

These financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Capital Group and its significant companies will continue as a going concern for at least 12 months from the reporting date.

As at September 30, 2025, the companies PGE Obrót S.A., PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A., and ENESTA sp. z o.o. reported negative equity and meet the conditions under Article 397 of the Polish Commercial Companies Code and, correspondingly – Article 233 of the Polish Commercial Companies Code indicating a threat to the continued existence of the company.

The negative equity of PGE Obrót S.A. is primarily the result of a net loss of PLN (2,458) million incurred in 2023, which was mainly caused by regulatory changes affecting the retail electricity trading market and the approval by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office of a household tariff that did not fully cover the cost of electricity procurement. PGE Obrót S.A. has access to financing provided by PGE S.A. On February 17, 2025, PGE Obrót S.A. and PGE S.A. signed a new loan agreement for a period of three years with a limit of PLN 1,500 million. For a period of at least 12 months from the reporting date, PGE S.A. does not intend to sell or liquidate PGE Obrót S.A. and is also able to provide the company with adequate support. Consequently, the assumption of the Company's going concern is justified. The impact of regulatory changes on the PGE Group's operations is described in Note 27.2 to these financial statements.

The negative equity of PGE GiEK S.A. results primarily from the recognition of impairment losses on property, plant and equipment in previous years and in the first half of 2025. On April 29, 2025, the General Meeting of PGE GiEK S.A. adopted a resolution regarding the continued existence of the company. The company is undertaking measures aimed at improving efficiency, including:

  • taking steps to discontinue operations in selected locations,
  • reducing the costs of refurbishing assets that are to be decommissioned in the foreseeable future,
  • reducing personnel costs.

PGE GiEK S.A. has access to financing provided by PGE S.A., which is capable of ensuring adequate support for the continuation of PGE GiEK S.A.'s operations for a period of at least 12 months from the reporting date. Consequently, the assumption of the Company's going concern is justified.

The situation of ENESTA sp. z o.o. is the result of unfavourable contracts for the supply of electricity and natural gas concluded in 2021, which were subsequently terminated, also in 2021. On June 21, 2022, restructuring (remedial) proceedings were initiated. In September 2023, the share capital of ENESTA was increased by PLN 32 million and in December 2023 by a further PLN 34 million. The shares in the increased capital were fully subscribed and paid for by PGE Obrót S.A. To support ENESTA's liquidity, PGE S.A. and PGE Obrót S.A. have extended the payment deadlines in their settlements with ENESTA and approved instalment repayments of outstanding liabilities. On July 31, 2025, the arrangement procedure was approved and an announcement was made. In the absence of any appeal against this decision, the remedial proceedings were concluded on August 14, 2025. In view of the support described above and the conclusion of the restructuring proceedings, it is reasonable to assume that the company will continue its operations.

Apart from the matters described above, as at the date of approval of these financial statements for publication, there are no circumstances indicating a threat to the going concern of any significant Group entities within 12 months from the reporting date. These circumstances do not affect the going concern assumption for the Group as a whole.

Changes in accounting policy

These financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting principles (policies) and calculation methods as in the last annual financial statements, except for changes in the presentation of other operating income and expenses and financial income and expenses, which are described in more detail in Note 4 to these financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the PGE Capital Group for the year ended December 31, 2024, approved for publication on April 14, 2025.

The following changes in the structure of PGE Capital Group companies consolidated using the full consolidation method, which occurred up to September 30, 2025, have been included in the above table:

  • On May 5, 2025, the merger of PGE EO S.A. (the acquiring company) with Mithra D sp. z o.o., Mithra F sp. z o.o., Mithra G sp. z o.o., Mithra H sp. z o.o., Mithra I sp. z o.o., Mithra K sp. z o.o., Mithra M sp. z o.o., Mithra N sp. z o.o., Mithra O sp. z o.o., and Mithra P sp. z o.o. (the acquired companies) was registered in the National Court Register. The merger did not affect these consolidated financial statements.
  • On May 26-27, 2025, PGE S.A. incorporated 4 companies: PGE Inwest 28 sp. z o.o., PGE Inwest 29 sp. z o.o., PGE Inwest 30 sp. z o.o. and PGE Inwest 31 sp. z o.o. On May 28-29, 2025, these companies were registered in the National Court Register. In all these companies, PGE S.A. is the sole shareholder.
  • On June 2, 2025, Energetyka Kolejowa Obrót sp. z o.o. and Remton Investments sp. z o.o. were placed in liquidation. Due to the loss of control associated with being placed in liquidation, from June 1, 2025, the said companies are not subject to consolidation. Since the companies did not conduct operating activities and their shares had been subject to impairment write-downs in earlier periods, the discontinuation of their consolidation did not have a material impact on these consolidated financial statements.
  • On August 20, 2025, PGE S.A. incorporated 2 companies: PGE Inwest 33 sp. z o.o. and PGE Inwest 34 sp. z o.o. On September 17 and 24, 2025, these companies were registered in the National Court Register. In both of these companies, PGE S.A. is the sole shareholder.

Transactions after the reporting date

• On October 2, 2025, PGE S.A. incorporated 4 single-member companies: PGE Inwest 35 sp. z o.o., PGE Inwest 36 sp. z o.o., PGE Inwest 37 sp. z o.o. and PGE Inwest 38 sp. z o.o.

  • On October 22, 2025, the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of Energoserwis Kleszczów sp. z o.o. i ELMEN sp. z o.o. adopted resolutions on the division of Energoserwis Kleszczów sp. z o.o. (the company being divided) by separation under Article 529 § 1 point 4 of the Commercial Companies Code (division by separation) by transferring to ELMEN sp. z o.o. (the acquiring company) the part of the assets of the divided company constituting an organised part of the enterprise within which construction and assembly activities are conducted. The transfer of the OPE to the acquiring company will take place through an appropriate reduction of the share capital of the divided company by cancelling all shares in the divided company held by PGE S.A., and an appropriate increase in the share capital of the acquiring company through the creation of new shares in the acquiring company. In exchange for the cancelled shares in the divided company, PGE S.A. will take up all new shares in the increased share capital of the acquiring company. On October 28, 2025, the reduction of the share capital of Energoserwis Kleszczów sp. z o.o. was registered in the National Court Register. The share capital increase of ELMEN Ltd. is scheduled for January 2, 2026.
  • On November 3, 2025, the merger of PGE EO S.A. (the acquiring company) with LongWing Polska sp. z o.o. and PGE Soleo 2 sp. z o.o. (the acquired companies) was registered in the National Court Register. The merger was effected by transferring all the assets of the acquired companies to the acquiring company. The merger will have no impact on the future consolidated financial statements of the PGE CG.

Basis for preparation of the financial statements

Statement of compliance

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been drawn up in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting and in accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Finance of March 29, 2018 on current and periodic information to be disclosed by issuers of securities and conditions for recognising as equivalent information required by the laws of a non-member state (Dz.U. [Journal of Laws], 2018, item 757). The statements do not include all the information required in the

annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Capital Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The International Financial Reporting Standards comprise standards and interpretations approved by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB') and IFRS Interpretations Committee.

Functional currency and presentation currency

The functional currency of the parent company and its subsidiaries, with the exception of PGE Sweden AB (publ), covered by these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, as well as the presentation currency of these consolidated financial statements, is the Polish zloty. For PGE Sweden AB (publ), the functional currency is the euro ('EUR'). The items included in the financial statements of PGE Sweden AB (publ) are translated into the presentation currency of the PGE Group using the applicable exchange rates. All numerical values in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in millions of zlotys, unless stated otherwise.

At the reporting date, for the purpose of translation of items denominated in currencies other than PLN, the following exchange rates were applied:

September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 September 30, 2024
USD 3.6315 4.1012 3.8193

Amendments to IFRS 19 The changes concern the scope of disclosure January 1, 2027

IFRS 18 introduces significant changes to the presentation of financial statements. The standard provides the standardisation of the statement of profit or loss by separating three new categories: operating, investing and financing. In addition, the rules for disclosing information on so-called management-defined performance measures have been clarified, with the aim of increasing the transparency and comparability of data presented in the statements.

The Group is currently undertaking preliminary work related to preparing for the implementation of the standard. As of the date of preparation of these financial statements, the analysis of the standard's impact has not been completed.

In the Group's opinion, the other new standards and amendments to standards should not have a significant impact on future financial statements.

The Capital Group intends to adopt the above-mentioned new standards as well as amendments to standards and IFRS EU interpretations published by the International Accounting Standards Board, but not yet effective as at the reporting date, in accordance with their effective date.

The Management Board's professional judgment and estimates

In the process of applying the accounting policy to the foregoing issues, the most important element, besides accounting estimates, was the management's professional opinion, which influences the values disclosed in the consolidated financial statements, including the additional explanatory notes. The assumptions of these estimates are based on the Management Board's best knowledge of current and future activities and events in the respective areas.

Detailed information on the adopted assumptions is presented below or in the relevant notes.

  • During the reporting period, the Group carried out an analysis of the circumstances and subsequent impairment testing for property, plant and equipment. The results of the tests are described in Note 3 to these financial statements. The estimation of the recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment is based on a number of significant assumptions, the realisation of which is uncertain and, to a large extent, beyond the control of the PGE Capital Group. The Group has adopted the values and figures it considers most appropriate; however, it cannot be ruled out that the actual outcome of individual assumptions will differ from those adopted by the Group.
  • Provisions are liabilities whose amount or timing of payment is uncertain. During the reporting period, the Group revised its estimates regarding the justification or amount of certain provisions. In particular, during the reporting period, the provision for rehabilitation costs and the provision for employee benefits were updated due to a decrease in the discount rate. Details are set out in Note 21 to these financial statements.
  • At the end of the current reporting period, the Group estimated the imbalance of electricity fed into the grid by prosumers. Electricity generated and fed into the grid by prosumers supplies the grid during periods of overproduction, thereby reducing the Group's need to purchase energy from the market. The surplus electricity constitutes a so-called deposit, which is returned to prosumers in subsequent periods. In this respect, the Group recognised an estimated liability of PLN 607 million (PLN 622 million in the comparative period). In the Group's opinion, the estimate of this liability most accurately reflects the Group's interim results, which stabilise at the end of the year during the winter period and decrease to insignificant amounts.
  • Uncertainties related to tax settlements are described in Note 25 to these consolidated financial statements.
  • The Group makes significant estimates in respect of recognised contingent liabilities. Relevant details are set out in Note 24 to these financial statements.
  • Measurement of financial instruments results from a number of assumptions and estimates based on data available at the time the financial statements were being prepared. Changes in these assumptions and estimates may affect the future financial statements of the PGE CG.
  • Due to the electricity market crisis in 2022, a number of legal regulations came into force, which required the PGE Capital Group to estimate revenues and costs related to compensation for coal purchases, compensations and price adjustments for households under the Household Consumers Act, and contributions to the Price Difference Payment Fund under the Extraordinary Measures Act 2023. A detailed description of these estimates is provided in Note 27.2.
  • Certain revenue from sales, as described in Note 6.1 of these consolidated financial statements, is invoiced based on periodic readings from metering and settlement systems. This results in the need to estimate revenue for deliveries for which PGE Group does not have metering data as at the reporting date. Revenue from the balancing electricity market is subject to adjustment after the reporting period. The final amount of sales or the cost of purchasing electricity is determined up to 14 months after the end of the respective delivery period.

Impairment tests for property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, rights to use assets and goodwill

Property, plant and equipment represent the most significant asset category within the PGE Capital Group. Due to a dynamic macroeconomic and regulatory environment, the Group periodically assesses whether there are any indications of impairment in the recoverable amount of its assets. In evaluating market conditions, the PGE Capital Group relies both on its own analytical tools and on support from independent analytical institutions. In previous reporting periods, the PGE Capital Group recognised significant impairment losses on fixed assets in the Coal Energy segment, the District Heating segment and the Renewables segment, excluding offshore wind farm projects. The impairment loss previously recognised in the Renewables segment was fully reversed in 2021.

In the first half of 2025, the Group carried out an analysis of premises and identified factors that could have materially contributed to a change in the value of fixed assets held in the segments indicated above, as well as in the Railway Energy Services segment and in the companies: PGE Gryfino Dolna Odra sp. z o.o., PGE Nowy Rybnik sp. z o.o., EW Baltica 2 sp. z o.o. and EW Baltica 3 sp. z o.o. The analysis of the circumstancs and the impairment tests performed as of June 30, 2025 remain valid for the financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2025.

External circumstances

  • The market capitalisation of PGE S.A. remains below the book value of the net assets of the PGE Capital Group.
  • The average electricity price for forward contracts for the following year in the period from January to May 2025 amounted to approx. PLN 427/MWh and was 3% lower compared to the price for the second half of 2024 (PLN 441/MWh).

  • In the period from January to May 2025, the weighted average price of the EUA DEC 25 instrument amounted to EUR 72 per tonne and was 4% higher than the average price of the EUA DEC 25 instrument observed for the second half of 2024 (EUR 69 per tonne).
  • The average price of hard coal in the ARA ports in monthly continuous contracts in the period from January to May 2025 was USD 100/t and was 14% lower compared to the second half of 2024 (USD 116/t).
  • The average gas price in the period from January to May 2025 was EUR 42/MWh and increased by 8% compared to the second half of 2024 (EUR 39/MWh).
  • The average price of domestic coal according to PSCMI1 in the period from January to May 2025 was PLN 17/GJ and decreased by 23% compared to the second half of 2024 (PLN 22/GJ).

As a result of the analysis of the above-mentioned circumstances, the Group performed impairment tests as at May 31, 2025 for the following segments: Coal Energy, Railway Energy Services (to which goodwill and customer relationship assets are allocated), Renewables, District Heating (to which goodwill is allocated), as well as for PGE Gryfino Dolna Odra sp. z o.o. and PGE Nowy Rybnik sp. z o.o. Based on the tests performed, it was concluded that an impairment write-down of fixed assets was required in the Coal Energy and Renewables segments.

The analysis of circumstances showed no basis for conducting tests for EW Baltica 2 sp. z o.o. and EW Baltica 3 sp. z o.o.

Assumptions for impairment tests

Macroeconomic assumptions

The main price assumptions, i.e. those concerning the prices of electricity, CO2 emission allowances, coal, natural gas and the assumptions relating to the majority of the Group's generating facilities are derived from a study prepared in June 2025 (the 'Study') by an external, independent entity that is a recognised centre of expertise in the energy market (the 'Advisor'). The first year of the projection takes into account the approved Financial Plan for 2025. The year 2026 is estimated based on the current market situation consistent with the adopted strategy of the PGE Capital Group published on June 12, 2025. The subsequent years of the forecast are based entirely on the Study. The Advisor used current scenarios for the economic and demographic development of the country and estimates of changes in key market parameters. The Advisor's forecasts take into account the legal conditions arising from the current energy policy, at both the EU and national levels.

The environment in which the PGE Capital Group operates is characterised by high volatility of macroeconomic, market and regulatory conditions. Changes in these conditions may have a significant impact on the financial position of the PGE Capital Group, therefore the assumptions used to estimate the value in use of assets are subject to periodic review with the knowledge of the independent Advisor.

Forecasts of electricity prices assume a slight change in 2026, followed by an average annual increase of around 4% in the years 2027–2040.

Forecasts of CO2 emission allowance prices assume a 5.5% increase in 2026 compared to 2025 and then dynamic growth until 2030 at an average annual rate of 13%. This reflects the current parametrisation of the Market Stability Reserve (MSR) mechanism and of the EU ETS system itself, introduced following the adoption of the Fit for 55 package and the inclusion of the effects of the REPowerEU plan. These changes result in a marked reduction in the supply of allowances in the second half of this decade. In the following decade, CO2 prices will continue to rise, but at a slightly slower pace, reaching approx. 7% on average annually, as a result of the continuation of policies aimed at achieving climate neutrality in 2050.

Forecasts of hard coal prices, after several years of dynamic increases and decreases, assume price stabilisation in 2026, then in 2027 an increase of approx. 10%, which reflects global coal price forecasts, and later a gradual decline of approx. 3% on average annually until the mid-2030s. This results from the gradual decrease in global demand for coal in connection with the implementation of climate policy elements, in particular the development of RES. After 2035, a slight increase of around 1% annually is assumed due to rising extraction costs.

Forecasts of natural gas prices assume an 11% decrease in 2026 compared to 2025 prices and price stability in 2027. Thereafter, until 2040, prices are projected to grow at an average annual rate of 2.4%. Forecast gas prices in Europe are most affected by LNG import costs and the related level of investment in liquefaction and regasification facilities worldwide, as well as dynamically growing demand for LNG, especially in Asian countries, and increasing gas demand in the USA. In the long term, the natural gas price forecast assumes growth, mainly due to rising extraction costs of this raw material.

Forecasts of prices of energy origin rights from renewable energy sources assume a 52% decline in 2026 compared to 2025 prices and a 165% increase in 2027 compared to 2026, which is the result of changes in demand and supply for energy origin rights. Subsequently, an average annual decrease in 2028–2031 of about 17% is assumed, related to the oversupply of allowances resulting from the low redemption obligation in 2025 and 2026, followed later by a price rebound reflecting the assumed increase in the redemption obligation.

The forecast of capacity market revenues for the years 2025–2029 is based on the results of main, additional and supplementary auctions, taking into account joint balancing mechanisms within the PGE Capital Group companies. The forecast from 2030 was prepared by a team of PGE S.A. experts on the basis of assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows for generation units, based, inter alia, on the results of already settled auctions and the forecasts of an external Advisor. For one-year contracts with delivery from July 1, 2025 and multi-year contracts concluded in the major and additional auctions for 2025 onwards, an emission criterion of 550g CO2/kWh (so-called EPS 550) applies, which in practice excluded the participation of all coal-fired units in the Capacity Market.

On February 14, 2025, the Act of January 24, 2025 amending the Capacity Market Act (Dz.U. [Journal of Laws] 2025, item 159) entered into force, introducing supplementary auctions. Units not meeting the 550g CO2/kWh emission criterion were admitted to the supplementary auctions. The auction for the delivery period from July 1 to December 31, 2025 was conducted in May 2025 and its results were included in the capacity market revenue forecast. The revenue forecast also includes expected revenues from supplementary auctions for the delivery period from 2026 to 2028, as well as expected revenues from the top-up auction for 2029. The forecast of revenue from supplementary auctions was compiled by a team of experts from PGE S.A. based on the best knowledge of the expected parameterisation of these auctions. The availability of power generation units was estimated on the basis of overhaul plans and failure frequency statistics.

Weighted average cost of capital

In the second half of 2024, a series of interest rate cuts was initiated by the European Central Bank, the Bank of England and the United States Federal Reserve. In the first half of 2025, cuts continued in the Eurozone and the United Kingdom, while in the United States interest rates remained unchanged. In May 2025, the National Bank of Poland announced its first interest rate cut in one and a half years. In the subsequent months of 2025 (after the balance sheet date of this report), further reductions took place. The median of economists' forecasts indicates that further interest rate cuts by the NBP may be possible later this year.

The weighted average cost of capital estimated in the PGE Group takes into account ongoing disinflationary processes. The PGE Group applies a weighted average cost of capital path that reflects current market parameters and characteristics (including the elevated level of market interest rates), and in subsequent periods gradually converges towards levels representing the long-term average, based on the full business cycle and fundamental economic relationships. In the opinion of the PGE Group, this approach makes it possible to avoid excessive influence of short-term volatility on the valuation of long-term assets.

Climate issues

In July 2021, the European Commission published the Fit for 55 legislative package, aimed inter alia at achieving a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the EU by 55% (previously 40%) by 2030 compared to 1990. As expected by market participants, the reform of the EU ETS system included in the package should result in a significant increase in the level of CO2 emission allowance prices, which in practice already occurred in 2021. Since then, the prices of CO2 emission allowances have remained high, and further increases are expected in the second half of the current decade. The changes introduced may negatively affect the margins earned by carbon-intensive power generation units, particularly to the extent that the increase in the price of CO2 allowances is not passed on in the price at which these units sell the electricity or heat they produce. In December 2022, the Council and the EU Parliament reached important agreements on the 'Fit for 55' package proposal, the EU's plan to increase the target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions below 55% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels. Another important element of the package was to increase the target for the share of RES in the European Union's energy mix to 42.5% in 2030 (previously 32%). The establishment of this target in agreement with the Council was voted through in the European Parliament in September 2023. Of importance to the Heat Generation segment are the regulatory changes resulting from the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED). Changes to the definition of an energy-efficient district heating system and changes to the definition of high-efficiency cogeneration are further forcing action to be taken towards the transformation of assets and the replacement of outdated coal-fired units. Meanwhile, under the amendments proposed to the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD), forecasts indicate a decline in demand for heat in municipal district heating systems.

In June 2025, the PGE Group announced its strategy to 2035, one of the assumptions of which is the comprehensive modernisation of existing heating assets based on low- and zero-emission technologies. The strategy maintains the target of achieving climate neutrality of the PGE Capital Group by 2050. The mission of the PGE Capital Group is based on ensuring security of energy supply through flexible sources, smart grid infrastructure and energy storage. The transformation of generation capacities through the use of new low-

or zero-carbon power generation units is planned for the period until 2030 and the achievement of climate neutrality by 2050.

Accordingly, the District Heating segment is gradually replacing coal-fired sources with new renewable and low-carbon sources. It is planned that by 2030, most of the locations where PGE Capital Group's coal-fired district heating assets are present will have commissioned new installations, which will result in a complete or significant shift away from the coal fuel. To generate heat in new and upgraded heating facilities, the following will be used: natural gas (cogeneration units and water boilers), geothermal energy, biomass, and power-toheat technologies (electrode boilers and large-scale heat pumps utilising waste heat and ambient energy). The assumptions of the Decarbonisation Plan were taken into account when estimating the value in use of assets in the District Heating segment. In total, the PGE Group plans to allocate approx. PLN 18 billion to investments in this segment by 2035, of which PLN 15 billion for investments in new production installations and asset maintenance, and the remaining PLN 3 billion for potential acquisitions of district heating networks and their subsequent modernisation, in particular in cooperation with local governments.

New investments and the replacement of coal with gas cogeneration, RES and power-to-heat, together with improving the energy efficiency of networks, will make it possible to reduce CO2 emissions in this segment by 60% compared with 2021 and to reduce network losses by 3 p.p.

In July 2025, the European Commission proposed a new target of a 90% net reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2040 compared with 1990 levels, at the same time initiating the legislative process to update the European Climate Law and public consultations in this respect. As a result, a further reduction in the role of coal-fired sources in the energy market is expected in the next decade.

Significant changes in the regulatory environment, both in terms of national and foreign regulations, which affect or will affect the activities of the PGE Capital Group, have been described in Note 4.4 Regulatory environment in the Management Board's Report on the activities of the PGE Capital Group for the first half of 2025 ended June 30, 2025.

Climate issues are included in the assumptions used for impairment testing to the best of the Group's knowledge, with the support of an external independent Adviser. The PGE Capital Group adopts assumptions developed by an independent think tank that take into account the current regulatory and market situation. Future developments in the electricity market may differ from the currently adopted assumptions, which may lead to significant changes in the financial position and results of the PGE Group. Such changes will be recognised in future financial statements.

Description of assumptions for the Coal Energy segment

Property, plant and equipment represent one of the most significant asset items in the Coal Energy segment. Due to the changing macroeconomic and regulatory environment, the PGE Capital Group periodically verifies circumstances that may indicate impairment of the recoverable amount of its assets. In assessing the market situation, the Group uses both its own analytical tools and the support of independent analytical centres. In previous reporting periods, the Group recognised significant impairment losses on property, plant and equipment of the Coal Energy segment.

Analysis of the circumstances

In the current reporting period, the Group carried out an analysis of circumstances and identified factors that could have materially contributed to changes in the value of assets held, including:

  • updating of market assumptions used in the process of impairment testing of assets,
  • the decline observed in 2025 in market margins on the sale of electricity on the forward market from conventional generation assets,
  • updating of the PGE Capital Group's WACC assumed for the purposes of impairment testing of property, plant and equipment,
  • changes in the estimated revenues from supplementary capacity market auctions (auctions conducted in connection with the amendment to the Capacity Market Act adopted by the Sejm on January 9, 2025).

As a result of the analysis of the above-mentioned premises, the Group performed impairment tests of property, plant and equipment as at May 31, 2025 with respect to cash-generating units ('CGUs') by determining their recoverable amount. Determining fair value for very large groups of assets for which there is no active market and few comparable transactions is, in practice, very difficult. In the case of entire power plants and mines, for which a value must be determined on the local market, observable fair values do not exist. Accordingly, the recoverable amount of the assets analysed was determined on the basis of an estimate of their value in use using the discounted net cash flow method based on financial projections prepared for the period from June 2025 until the end of their useful lives. In the Group's view, adopting a forecast horizon of more than five years is necessary for a reliable estimate of recoverable amount, due to the significant and long-term impact of projected changes in the regulatory environment.

Climate issues

The future of the Polish energy market is determined by the European Union's climate policy, and developments in the electricity market in the run up to 2050 will be influenced by the European Green Deal, which aims to achieve EU climate neutrality by 2050. The reform of the EU ETS system resulted in a significant increase in the level of CO2 emission allowance prices already in 2021. Since then, the prices of CO2 emission allowances have remained high, and further increases are expected in the second half of the current decade. The changes introduced may negatively affect the margins earned by carbon-intensive power generation units, particularly to the extent that the increase in the price of CO2 allowances is not passed on in the price at which these units sell the electricity or heat they produce. In December 2022, the Council and the EU Parliament reached important agreements on the 'Fit for 55' package proposal. In addition to the emission reduction target, another important element of the package was to increase the target for the share of RES in the European Union's energy mix to 42.5% in 2030 (previously 32%). The establishment of this target in agreement with the Council was voted through in the European Parliament in September 2023. In July 2025, the European Commission proposed a new target of a 90% net reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2040 compared with 1990 levels, at the same time initiating the legislative process to update the European Climate Law and public consultations in this respect. As a result, a further reduction in the role of coal-fired sources in the energy market is expected in the next decade.

The changes described above mean that a reduction in the volume of production from conventional sources is anticipated, with a consequent reduction in capital expenditure (CAPEX) and operating expenditure (OPEX) on maintenance tasks of coal assets, which further affects the anticipated decline in profitability through the gradual deterioration of the availability of these units. At the same time, the aforementioned legislative and market changes favour the development of zero- and low-carbon sources. It should also be borne in mind that fossil fuel-based generation facilities, in the face of the uncertainty of RES generation (driven by environmental factors: water, wind, solar), are still needed in the electricity system to balance it.

Specific assumptions relating to the segment

The key assumptions determining the assessed value in use of the tested CGUs include the following:

  • recognising the following as individual CGUs, due to technology linkages:
  • o the Bełchatów Lignite Mine Branch and the Bełchatów Power Plant Branch ('Bełchatów Complex'),
  • o the Turów Lignite Mine Branch and the Turów Power Plant Branch ('Turów Complex').
  • recognising the Opole Power Plant, the Rybnik Power Plant and the Dolna Odra Power Plant as three separate CGUs.
  • the adoption of the going concern assumption based on conditions related to the anticipated technical condition of individual generation units,
  • taking into account labour cost optimisation resulting, among other things, from the currently implemented employment initiatives,
  • maintenance of production capacity through reinvestment projects of a replacement nature,
  • adopting a weighted average after-tax cost of capital differentiated for individual CGUs, according to the individually assessed level of risk and varying over time:
  • o for 2025–2026 at an average annual level for each CGU of between 8.48% and 10.19%,
  • o for 2027–2039 at an average annual level for each CGU of between 6.16% and 9.04%,
  • o for 2040 and subsequent years at an average annual level for each CGU of 7.54%.

In the impairment tests of assets at the end of 2024, the post-tax weighted average cost of capital was as follows:

  • o for 2025–2026 at an average annual level for each CGU of between 7.60% and 9.48%,
  • o for 2027–2039 at an average annual level for each CGU of between 6.37% and 7.94%,
  • o for 2040 and subsequent years at an average annual level for each CGU of 7.42%.

As at May 31, 2025, the tested carrying amount of property, plant and equipment of the Coal Energy segment amounted to PLN 12,525 million. This amount does not include CGUs for which the value in use of the tested assets is negative.

As a result of the impairment test performed, the Group concluded that as at May 31, 2025 impairment writedowns of these assets should be recognised in the total amount of PLN 8,477 million.

In addition, in June 2025 the value of property, plant and equipment in the Bełchatów Complex and Turów Complex increased, mainly due to the update of macroeconomic assumptions used to estimate the amount of provisions for mine site rehabilitation. Since the increase in property, plant and equipment was not included in the impairment test results as at May 31, 2025, and given that in the case of the Bełchatów and Turów Complexes, according to the current projection, the assets will be written down in full, the Group also wrote down the value of property, plant and equipment recognised in June 2025 in both Complexes. Ultimately, the total amount of write-downs was PLN 8,650 million and is presented in the table below:

Tested value* Identified impairment Value after write-down
Bełchatów Complex 1,878 (1,878) -
Turów Complex 1,822 (1,822) -
Opole Power Plant 8,998 (4,950) 4,048
Dolna Odra Power Plant - - -
Rybnik Power Plant - - -
TOTAL 12,698 (8,650) 4,048

* Including the value of property, plant and equipment recognised in June 2025 (mainly as a result of changes in estimates of mine rehabilitation provisions).

For CGUs that were fully impaired in previous reporting periods (Dolna Odra Power Plant, Rybnik Power Plant), the impairment tests confirmed the validity of the full write-down of property, plant and equipment. In these branches, the Group recognised impairment write-downs in the first half of 2025 in connection with capital expenditures incurred, amounting to PLN 26 million.

Sensitivity analysis

In accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, the Group carried out a sensitivity analysis for individual generation units.

The impact of changes in key assumptions applying the ceteris paribus principle on the value in use of assets as at May 31, 2025 is presented below. The analysis excluded the impact on the value in use of assets fully written down in previous reporting periods.

Impact on value in use in PLN million
Parameter Change in assumptions Increase Decrease
Change in electricity price over the forecast period +1% 911 -
-1% - 858
+0.5 p.p. 1,266 -
Change in WACC - 0.5 p.p. - 1,345
Change in the price of CO2 emission allowances +1% - 567
-1% 625 -
Change in the price of hard coal +1% - 70
-1% 70 -

Summarising the impact of the changes in assumptions presented in the above table on the value in use of the assets:

  • a 1% decrease in the electricity price would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.9 billion and increase the impairment by approx. PLN 0.3 billion,
  • a 0.5 percentage point decrease in WACC would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 1.3 billion and increase the impairment by approx. PLN 0.1 billion,
  • a 1% increase in CO2 emission allowance prices would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.6 billion and increase the impairment by approx. PLN 0.2 billion,
  • a 1% increase in the hard coal price would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.1 billion and increase the impairment by approx. PLN 0.1 billion.

The environment in which the PGE Capital Group operates is characterised by high volatility and depends on macroeconomic, market and regulatory conditions, and any changes in this respect may have a material impact on the financial position and financial results of the PGE Group. Therefore, the above and other assumptions adopted for estimating the value in use of assets are subject to periodic analysis and verification. Any changes will be reflected in future financial statements.

Description of assumptions for the Renewables segment

Impairment tests were carried out as at May 31, 2025 with respect to cash-generating units (CGUs) by determining their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the assets analysed was determined on the basis of an estimate of their value in use using the discounted net cash flow method, based on financial projections prepared for the expected useful life of a given CGU in the case of wind farms and photovoltaic farms, or for the period 2025–2035 in the case of other CGUs. For those CGUs whose expected economic useful life extends beyond 2035, a residual value was determined after the detailed forecast period. In the Group's opinion, adopting financial projections longer than five years is justified due to the fact that the property, plant and equipment used by the Group have a materially longer economic useful life and due to the significant and long-term impact of estimated regulatory changes reflected in the detailed forecast.

Specific assumptions

The key assumptions determining the assessed value in use of the tested CGUs include the following:

  • recognition as separate CGUs of:
  • o pumped-storage power plants (one CGU for all power plants due to their common economic characteristics),
  • o run-of-river hydroelectric power plants (one CGU for all power plants due to their common economic characteristics),
  • o individual wind farms (separate CGUs for each farm due to differing periods of operation),
  • o individual photovoltaic power plants (separate CGUs for each plant due to differing periods of operation),
  • electricity and property rights generation assumed on the basis of historical data, taking into account the availability of individual units,
  • availability of units estimated on the basis of maintenance plans, taking into account failure rates,
  • for pumped-storage power plants, from mid-2025 the launch of the market mechanism for contracting ancillary services was taken into account, with revenues in the first five years estimated on the basis of PGE CG's internal analyses, and in the long term on the basis of the report of an external expert,
  • maintenance of production capacity through reinvestment projects of a replacement nature,
  • adoption of a post-tax adjusted weighted average cost of capital (WACC) differentiated over time:
  • o for 2025–2035 at an average annual level of 7.29%,
  • o for 2036–2039 at an average annual level of 6.25%,
  • o from 2040 onwards at 6.54%.

In the impairment tests for the first half of 2024, the post-tax weighted average cost of capital was as follows:

  • o for 2024–2029 at an average annual level of 7.28%,
  • o from 2030 onwards at 6.28%,
  • additionally, the WACC for wind farms includes an individually estimated level of risk associated with participation in different support schemes during their validity (green certificates, auctions),
  • for wind farms acquired in 2022, the WACC further takes into account discounts for:
  • o volume guarantees,
  • o green certificate premiums,
  • o price guarantees, and
  • o discounts for the particular strategic importance of individual wind farms, in accordance with the PGE CG Investment Policy.

The total tested carrying amount of property, plant and equipment of the Renewables segment amounted to PLN 5,034 million, of which the tested carrying amount of property, plant and equipment as at May 31, 2025 was PLN 4,735 million and the tested carrying amount of property, plant and equipment under construction as at June 30, 2025 was PLN 299 million. As a result of the impairment test, the Group concluded that impairment write-downs of these assets should be recognised in the total amount of PLN 402 million, as presented in the table below.

(PLN million) Tested value1 Recognised impairment Value after write-down
Wind farms 620 (65) 555
Photovoltaic power plants 1,078 (337) 741
of which property, plant and
equipment under construction2
254 (64) 190
TOTAL 1,698 (402) 1,296

1 Relates to power plants and investments in which impairment occurred. 2 Excluding phase 3 of the Jeziórko power station, which was tested on May 31, 2025, including property, plant and equipment.

Sensitivity analysis

The sensitivity analysis showed that factors such as WACC and electricity prices have a material impact on the estimated value in use. The results of the sensitivity analysis apply to all CGUs belonging to PGE EO S.A. and do not include property, plant and equipment under construction, except for the Jeziórko 3 power plant.

The table below presents the impact of changes in factors, applying the ceteris paribus principle, that have a material effect throughout the projection period on projected cash flows and, consequently, on the estimated value in use.

Change in Impact on value in use in PLN million
Parameter assumptions Increase Decrease
1% 82 -
Change in electricity price over the forecast period -1% - 83
+ 0.5 p.p. - 2,590
Change in WACC -0.5 p.p. 3,371 -

Summarising the impact of the changes in assumptions presented in the above table on the value in use of the assets:

  • a 1% decrease in the electricity price over the entire forecast period would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.1 billion and increase the impairment by PLN 0.01 billion,
  • a 0.5 percentage point increase in WACC over the entire forecast period would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 2.6 billion and increase the impairment by PLN 0.05 billion.

The environment in which the PGE Capital Group operates is characterised by high volatility and depends on macroeconomic, market and regulatory conditions, and any changes in this respect may have a material impact on the financial position and financial results of the PGE Group. Therefore, the above and other assumptions adopted for estimating the value in use of assets are subject to periodic analysis and verification. Any changes will be reflected in future financial statements.

Description of assumptions for the District Heating segment

Impairment tests of property, plant and equipment were carried out as at May 31, 2025 with respect to cashgenerating units (CGUs) by determining their recoverable amount. Determining fair value for very large groups of assets for which there is no active market and few comparable transactions is, in practice, very difficult. In the case of entire power plants and combined heat and power plants, for which a value must be determined on the local market, observable fair values do not exist. Accordingly, the recoverable amount of the assets analysed was determined on the basis of an estimate of their value in use using the discounted net cash flow method, based on financial projections prepared for the period from June 2025 to the end of 2030. In the Group's view, adopting financial projections longer than five years is justified due to the significant and longterm impact of projected changes in the regulatory environment. By adopting longer projections, the recoverable amount can be estimated more reliably. For generation units whose expected economic useful life extends beyond 2030, a residual value was determined for the remaining operating period.

The energy market, and in particular the heating market, is a regulated market in Poland and as such is subject to numerous regulations and cannot be shaped freely solely on the basis of business decisions. The Energy Law aims, inter alia, to take effective regulatory measures to ensure energy security. This means that the regulatory environment is directed towards the stable operation of heat suppliers in a given area in order to meet consumers' needs in the long term. Under the provisions of the Energy Law, the President of the Energy Regulatory Office (URE) may, even in extreme cases, order an energy company to carry out licensed activities (for a period not exceeding two years) if required by the public interest. If such activities generate a loss, the energy company is entitled to compensation of the losses from the State Treasury.

Accordingly, the Group does not assume a finite useful life of CGUs due to the regulatory environment, which limits the possibility of discontinuing operations. Therefore, in impairment tests it was assumed that activities would continue (in the form of residual value), while maintaining expenditures at replacement level, in the long term, inter alia in view of the public interest in ensuring heat supply. In respect of generation assets covered by the Decarbonisation Plan, reinvestment projects relate to the transformation of generating capacity (to gas-fuelled assets) through the use of new low- or zero-emission generation units, which means that cash flows generated by these assets are included in the impairment tests.

Climate issues

On March 2, 2021, the Minister of Climate and Environment announced the state energy policy until 2040 ('PEP2040'). PEP2040 sets the framework for the energy transition in Poland. It defines strategic directions regarding the selection of technologies for the construction of a low-emission energy system. The policy takes into account the scale of challenges related to adapting the national economy to EU regulatory requirements connected with the 2030 climate and energy targets, the European Green Deal, the post-COVID economic recovery plan, and the pursuit of climate neutrality in line with national capabilities. One of the specific objectives of PEP2040 is the development of district heating and cogeneration, which is intended to contribute to reducing the emission intensity of the energy system as a whole. Achieving this strategic goal is expected to rely heavily on the development of cogeneration, i.e. the simultaneous production of electricity and heat, which is the most efficient way of using the chemical energy of the primary fuel. District heating should be generated primarily in CHP plants, based on low-emission sources, including those fired with natural gas. As the largest energy group in Poland, the PGE Capital Group is obliged to implement the objectives of PEP2040, including in the District Heating segment.

On December 15, 2022, the PGE Capital Group's District Heating segment adopted the Decarbonisation Plan to 2050. The objective of the Decarbonisation Plan is to meet the regulatory requirements for the power industry and to maintain the current generation potential in the long term in order to meet customer needs.

Confirmation of the ongoing decarbonisation process is also provided by the current PGE CG strategy:

  • On June 12, 2025, PGE Polska Grupa Energetyczna published its strategy until 2035. It provides for investments in smart energy grids, new large-scale and flexible gas-fired power plants, renewable energy sources, storage facilities, and integrated district heating systems.
  • District heating systems play an important role in the decarbonisation process, particularly in cities and regions with high demand for thermal energy. The PGE Group plans a comprehensive modernisation of its existing units and networks based on low- and zero-emission technologies. By 2030, coal-fired district heating units will be decommissioned. They will be replaced by modern sources that will ensure security of supply, energy efficiency, and emission reduction.

For investments in this segment up to 2035, the PGE Group plans to allocate approx. PLN 18 billion, of which:

  • o PLN 15 billion will be allocated to new generation units, such as gas engines, electrode boilers, heat pumps, gas-fired water boilers, biomass-fired boilers, and heat storage units,
  • o PLN 3 billion will be allocated to potential acquisitions of district heating networks and their subsequent modernisation, particularly in cooperation with local governments.
  • On October 5, 2023, the PGE EC Investment Committee approved an update of the Decarbonisation Plan for generation assets, aimed at full decarbonisation by 2030, and obliged the project team to update the Plan regularly due to regulatory changes, the availability of new technologies, and changes in the geopolitical and economic situation. Work is currently underway on the next update of the Decarbonisation Plan, taking into account the PGE CG Strategy.

Specific assumptions relating to the segment

The key assumptions determining the assessed value in use of the tested CGUs include the following:

  • recognition as separate CGUs of individual branches of PGE EC S.A., i.e.: Branch No 1 in Kraków (Kraków CHP), Wybrzeże Branch (Gdańsk CHP, Gdynia CHP), Rzeszów Branch (Rzeszów CHP), Lublin Branch (Lublin Wrotków CHP), Bydgoszcz Branch (Bydgoszcz I CHP, Bydgoszcz II CHP), Gorzów Wielkopolski Branch (Gorzów Wielkopolski CHP), Zgierz Branch (Zgierz CHP), Kielce Branch (Kielce CHP), Szczecin Branch (Szczecin CHP, Pomorzany CHP, district heating network in Gryfino),
  • recognition as one CGU of three production plants forming part of KOGENERACJA, i.e. Wrocław CHP, Czechnica CHP, and Zawidawie CHP,
  • assumption that PGE CG generators will not receive free allocations of CO2 allowances for electricity production in the forecast period,
  • inclusion of free allocation of CO2 emission allowances in the period 2025–2030 for district heating and high-efficiency cogeneration. Member States may apply for free allocation of emission allowances for heat at the level of 30% for the period from 2021 to 2030, with the 30% value referring to the gas benchmark and heat supplied for municipal needs,
  • assumption for CHP plants that in the residual period there is support from the capacity market or its equivalent,
  • inclusion of the support system for high-efficiency cogeneration in the forecast horizon and residual period: for existing units, support was assumed in the form of guaranteed premium and, if the financial gap condition is met, an individual guaranteed premium; for new gas units, it was assumed that a cogeneration premium would be granted,
  • maintenance of production capacity through reinvestment projects of a replacement nature. For generation assets for which measures have been taken towards implementing the Decarbonisation Plan, reinvestment projects mean the transformation of production assets into gas-fuelled assets. The Decarbonisation Plan covers the following locations: Kraków, Gdańsk, Gdynia, Wrocław, Bydgoszcz, Kielce,
  • inclusion of development projects with a high level of advancement that have been included in the company's approved investment plan,
  • adoption of a post-tax adjusted weighted average cost of capital (WACC) differentiated over time:
  • o for 2025–2026 at an average annual level of 8.84%,
  • o for 2027–2030 at an average annual level of 7.55%.

In the impairment tests for the first half of 2024, the post-tax weighted average cost of capital was as follows:

  • o for 2024–2025 at an average annual level of 8.50%,
  • o for 2026–2030 at an average annual level of 6.59%.

As at May 31, 2025, the tested carrying amount of property, plant and equipment of the District Heating segment amounted to PLN 6,763 million, and goodwill amounted to PLN 192 million. As a result of the impairment test, the Group concluded that there was no need to recognise or reverse impairment write-downs on these assets and goodwill.

Sensitivity analysis

In accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, the Group carried out a sensitivity analysis for the generation units of the District Heating segment.

The impact of changes in key assumptions, applying the ceteris paribus principle, on the value in use of assets as at May 31, 2025 for the District Heating segment is presented below.

Change in Impact on value in use in PLN million
Parameter assumptions Increase Decrease
1% 653 -
Change in electricity price over the forecast period -1% - 653
+ 0.5 p.p. - 3,126
Change in WACC -0.5 p.p. 3,915 -
1% - 233
Change in the price of CO2 emission allowances - 1% 233 -
1% - 33
Change in the price of hard coal - 1% 33 -
1% - 330
Change in gas price -1% 330 -

Summarising the impact of the changes in assumptions presented in the above table on the value in use of the assets:

  • a 1% decrease in the electricity price would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.7 billion, and would not result in an impairment,
  • a 0.5 percentage point increase in WACC would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 3.1 billion, and would not result in an impairment,
  • a 1% increase in CO2 emission allowance prices would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.2 billion, and would not result in an impairment,
  • a 1% increase in the hard coal price would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.03 billion, and would not result in an impairment,
  • a 1% increase in the gas price would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.3 billion, and would not result in an impairment.

The environment in which the PGE Capital Group operates is characterised by high volatility and depends on macroeconomic, market and regulatory conditions, and any changes in this respect may have a material impact on the financial position and financial results of the PGE Group. Therefore, the above and other assumptions adopted for estimating the value in use of assets are subject to periodic analysis and verification. Any changes will be reflected in future financial statements.

Description of assumptions for the Railway Energy Services segment

Impairment tests were carried out as at May 31, 2025 with respect to cash-generating units (CGUs) by determining their recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of the assets analysed was determined on the basis of an estimate of their value in use using the discounted net cash flow method, based on financial projections prepared for the period from June 2025 to 2031. In the Group's opinion, adopting financial projections longer than five years is justified due to the long-term useful life of the assets and significant forecast market changes in the future. By adopting longer projections, the recoverable amount can be estimated more reliably.

Specific assumptions

The key assumptions determining the assessed value in use of the tested assets include the following:

• due to the number of interdependencies connected with the ability to generate cash flows, the Railway Energy Services segment was recognised as a single CGU. The single CGU combines trading and distribution

activities. On May 13, 2025, the Division Plan of Energetyka Kolejowa S.A. was filed with the commercial court in order to separate trading from distribution activities (so-called 'unbundling'). From the segment's perspective, the division of the company does not affect the identification of the CGU or the results of the impairment test of property, plant and equipment, and therefore the financial forecasts do not include changes related to this,

  • adoption of forecasts of volumes, margins and costs based on the current Financial Plan of the Railway Energy Services segment, actual performance, and other long-term forecasts, assuming in particular:
  • o maintaining a stable level in the distribution of traction energy volumes,
  • o maintaining profitability in the trading of traction energy,
  • o development of the Fuels Branch, in line with the Fuels Division strategy,
  • o long-term maintenance of profitability of contracts concluded by the Services Division,
  • adoption of a post-tax adjusted weighted average cost of capital (WACC) differentiated over time:
  • o for the Distribution Division 7.14% for the entire period,
  • o for other segments for the period from June 2025 to 2031 at an average annual level of 7.81%, and after 2031 at 6.45%.

In the impairment tests of assets at the end of 2024, the post-tax weighted average cost of capital was as follows:

  • o for the Distribution Division 6.05% for the entire forecast period,
  • o for other segments 7.06% (average annual rate for 2025–2030), and 6.42% after 2030.

As at May 31, 2025, the tested carrying amount of property, plant and equipment of the Railway Energy Services segment amounted to PLN 6,958 million, customer relationship assets amounted to PLN 471 million, and goodwill amounted to PLN 345 million. As a result of the impairment test, the Group concluded that there was no need to recognise impairment write-downs.

Sensitivity analysis

In accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, the Group carried out a sensitivity analysis for the Railway Energy Services segment.

The impact of changes in key assumptions, applying the ceteris paribus principle, on the value in use of assets as at May 31, 2025 for the assets belonging to the Railway Energy Services segment is presented below.

Change in Impact on value in use in PLN million
Parameter assumptions Increase Decrease
+1% 39 -
Change in electricity purchase price over the forecast period -1% - 39
+1% 28 -
Change in margin on electricity sales over the forecast period -1% - 28
+0.5 p.p. - 330
Change in WACC (for Branches outside Distribution) -0.5 p.p. 418 -
+0.5 p.p. - 269
Change in WACC (for distribution activities) -0.5 p.p. 318 -

Summarising the impact of the changes in assumptions presented in the above table on the value in use of the assets:

  • a 1% decrease in the electricity purchase price would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.04 billion, and would not result in an impairment,
  • a 1% decrease in electricity sales margins would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.03 billion, and would not result in an impairment,
  • a 0.5 percentage point increase in WACC for non-regulated businesses (other than Distribution) would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.3 billion, and would not result in an impairment,
  • a 0.5 percentage point increase in WACC for distribution activities would reduce the value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.3 billion, and would not result in an impairment.

The environment in which the PGE Capital Group operates is characterised by high volatility and depends on macroeconomic, market and regulatory conditions, and any changes in this respect may have a material impact on the financial position and financial results of the PGE Group. Therefore, the above and other assumptions adopted for estimating the value in use of assets are subject to periodic analysis and verification. Any changes will be reflected in future financial statements.

Description of assumptions for PGE Gryfino Dolna Odra sp. z o.o.

Impairment tests were carried out as at May 31, 2025 with respect to cash-generating units (CGUs) by determining their recoverable amount. Determining fair value for very large groups of assets for which there is no active market and few comparable transactions is, in practice, very difficult. In the case of entire power plants, for which a value must be determined on the local market, observable fair values do not exist. Accordingly, the recoverable amount of the assets analysed was determined on the basis of an estimate of their value in use using the discounted net cash flow method, based on financial projections prepared for the expected operating period. In the Group's opinion, adopting financial projections longer than five years is justified due to the long-term useful life of the assets and significant forecast market changes in the future. By adopting longer projections, the recoverable amount can be estimated more reliably.

The key assumptions determining the assessed value in use of the tested assets include the following:

  • rated capacity and average efficiency of the units adopted in line with the guaranteed parameters in the contract with the contractor and the assumed load profile,
  • operating period: 25 years (benchmark technical lifetime of CCGT units),
  • capital expenditures: the investment project was completed in 2024. It was assumed that capital expenditures for adaptation to hydrogen/green gas co-firing in the amount of PLN 200 million'22 per unit will be incurred in 2034 (expert estimate),
  • adoption of a post-tax weighted average cost of capital differentiated for the CGU, in line with the individually estimated level of risk and differentiated over time, at an average annual level of 7.50% for the entire operating horizon of the unit, i.e. until 2048.
  • In the impairment tests for the first half of 2024, the post-tax weighted average cost of capital differentiated for the CGU amounted to 6.84% for the entire operating horizon of the unit, i.e. until 2048.

As at May 31, 2025, the tested carrying amount of property, plant and equipment of PGE Gryfino Dolna Odra sp. z o.o. amounted to PLN 4,387 million. As a result of the impairment test, the Group concluded that there was no need to recognise impairment write-downs of these assets.

Sensitivity analysis

In accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, the Group carried out a sensitivity analysis for PGE Gryfino Dolna Odra sp. z o.o.

The impact of changes in key assumptions, applying the ceteris paribus principle, on the value in use of assets as at May 31, 2025 for the assets belonging to PGE Gryfino Dolna Odra sp. z o.o. is presented below:

Change in Impact on value in use in PLN million
Parameter assumptions Increase Decrease
1% 271 -
Change in electricity price over the forecast period -1% - 274
+ 0.5 p.p. - 119
Change in WACC -0.5 p.p. 125 -
1% 63 -
Change in production volume -1% - 63

Summarising the impact of the changes in assumptions presented in the above table on the value in use of the assets:

  • a 1% decrease in the electricity price would reduce the estimated value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.27 billion, and would not result in an impairment,
  • a 0.5 percentage point increase in WACC would reduce the estimated value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.12 billion, and would not result in an impairment,
  • a 1% decrease in production volume would reduce the estimated value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.06 billion, and would not result in an impairment.

The environment in which the PGE Capital Group operates is characterised by high volatility and depends on macroeconomic, market and regulatory conditions, and any changes in this respect may have a material impact on the financial position and financial results of the PGE Group. Therefore, the above and other assumptions adopted for estimating the value in use of assets are subject to periodic analysis and verification. Any changes will be reflected in future financial statements.

Description of assumptions for PGE Nowy Rybnik sp. z o.o.

Impairment tests were carried out as at May 31, 2025 with respect to cash-generating units (CGUs) by determining their recoverable amount. Determining fair value for very large groups of assets for which there is no active market and few comparable transactions is, in practice, very difficult. In the case of entire power plants, for which a value must be determined on the local market, observable fair values do not exist. Accordingly, the recoverable amount of the assets analysed was determined on the basis of an estimate of their value in use using the discounted net cash flow method, based on financial projections prepared for the expected operating period. In the Group's opinion, adopting financial projections longer than five years is justified due to the long-term useful life of the assets and significant forecast market changes in the future. By adopting longer projections, the recoverable amount can be estimated more reliably.

The key assumptions determining the assessed value in use of the tested assets include the following:

  • rated capacity and average efficiency of the units adopted in line with the guaranteed parameters in the contract with the contractor and the forecast load profile of the units resulting from production volume projections,
  • operating period: 24 years (projection until 2050, while the benchmark lifetime of a gas unit is 25 years),
  • capital expenditures: for 2025 and onwards adopted in line with the PGE Capital Group's Investment Plan and contracts signed for the construction of units,
  • adoption of a post-tax weighted average cost of capital differentiated for the CGU, in line with the individually estimated level of risk and differentiated over time, at an average annual level of 7.31% for the entire operating horizon of the unit, i.e. until 2050.

As at May 31, 2025, the tested carrying amount of property, plant and equipment of PGE Nowy Rybnik sp. z o.o. amounted to PLN 2,519 million. Following the impairment test, the Group concluded that there was no need to recognise any impairment losses on these assets.

Sensitivity analysis

In accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, the Group carried out a sensitivity analysis for PGE Nowy Rybnik sp. z o.o.

The table below presents the impact of changes to key assumptions, applying the ceteris paribus principle, on the value in use of the assets as at May 31, 2025 for the assets of PGE Nowy Rybnik sp. z o.o.

Change in Impact on value in use in PLN million
Parameter assumptions Increase Decrease
1% 208 -
Change in electricity price over the forecast period -1% - 208
+ 0.5 p.p. - 159
Change in WACC -0.5 p.p. 170 -
1% 50 -
Change in production volume -1% - 50

Summarising the impact of the changes in assumptions presented in the above table on the value in use of the assets:

  • a 1% decrease in the electricity price would reduce the estimated value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.2 billion, and would not result in an impairment,
  • a 0.5 percentage point increase in WACC would reduce the estimated value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.16 billion, and would not result in an impairment,
  • a 1% decrease in production volume would reduce the estimated value in use of assets by approx. PLN 0.05 billion, and would not result in an impairment.

The environment in which the PGE Capital Group operates is characterised by high volatility and depends on macroeconomic, market and regulatory conditions, and any changes in this respect may have a material impact on the financial position and financial results of the PGE Group. Therefore, the above and other assumptions adopted for estimating the value in use of assets are subject to periodic analysis and verification. Any changes will be reflected in future financial statements.

Analysis of the circumstances for the Offshore Wind Energy project

In 2021, Ørsted group entities acquired shares in the increased capital of Elektrownia Wiatrowa Baltica 2 and Elektrownia Wiatrowa Baltica 3. As a result of the transaction, the Ørsted group became a 50% shareholder in EWB2 and EWB3. Consequently, the PGE CG lost control over these two companies. Based on the agreements between the PGE CG and the Ørsted companies, EWB2 and EWB3 constitute a joint operation within the meaning of IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements. The control loss settlement resulted in the recognition of goodwill of PLN 81 million at the consolidated financial statement level.

As at May 31, 2025, the PGE Capital Group analysed the existing circumstances to verify whether the goodwill might have been impaired. Based on this analysis, the PGE Group concluded that there were no indications for performing an impairment test of goodwill arising from the EWB2 and EWB3 projects, with the conclusions remaining valid as at June 30, 2025.

The key analysed factors included the following:

  • the revenue side secured by the Contract for Difference,
  • the impact of an increase in inflation and the weighted average cost of capital,
  • the projects implementation schedule,
  • milestones achieved by the projects,
  • the budgets for the development (DEVEX) and implementation (CAPEX) phases of the project.

The EWB2 and EWB3 projects are entitled to obtain public support and consequently secure a revenue side that is indexed for inflation, thus partially mitigating the negative aspects of the macroeconomic environment.

The development phase of the EWB3 project is being carried out within the approved budget, in line with the updated project schedule that takes into account the postponement of the deadline for the generation and first grid connection of electricity, pursuant to the positive decision of the President of the Energy Regulatory Office. In January 2025, the Final Investment Decision was adopted for the EWB2 project, as a result of which the development phase was completed and the construction phase commenced, in line with the planned schedule.

Therefore, in the opinion of the PGE Group, as of May 31, 2025 there are no circumstances indicating the need to carry out a test for the goodwill arising from the EWB2 and EWB3 projects. These conclusions remain valid as at September 30, 2025.

Property, plant and equipment of the Distribution segment

As at the reporting date, the book value of property, plant and equipment related to the distribution business amounts to approximately PLN 27 billion, accounting for approximately 43% of the total consolidated property, plant and equipment of the PGE Capital Group. Their recoverable value depends mainly on the tariff approved by the President of the ERO. The regulated (tariff-based) revenue, which is determined on an annual basis, ensures that justified costs are covered: operating costs, depreciation and amortisation, taxes, energy purchase to cover the balance difference, transferred costs, and the achievement of a reasonable return on the capital involved in distribution activities. The level of return on capital and depreciation/amortisation depend on the Regulatory Asset Base.

As at the date of these consolidated financial statements, the PGE Capital Group did not identify any evidence of impairment of property, plant and equipment allocated to distribution activities.

Changes in accounting principles and data presentation

New standards and interpretations effective as of January 1, 2025

The accounting principles used in drawing up these financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the separate financial statements for the year 2024, with the exceptions presented below. The changes to the IFRSs referred to below were applied in these financial statements as of their respective effective dates. The changes presented below did not have any material impact on the presented and disclosed financial information or did not apply to transactions entered into by the Group, or their application is required only in the annual financial statements:

• Amendments to IAS 21 – the changes relate to the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates – lack of convertibility.

The Group has not elected to early adopt any of the standards, interpretations or changes that have been published but are not yet effective in accordance with the European Union regulations.

Change in presentation of comparative figures

In these interim consolidated financial statements, the comparative figures in the statement of comprehensive income and in the notes for the period of 3 and 9 months ended September 30, 2024 have been restated compared to the figures published for those periods. The change resulted from the adjustment of other operating income and expenses as well as financial income and expenses, which in the previously published financial statements had been offset and presented on a net basis. The effect of the restatement is presented in the table below.

Fair value hierarchy

Derivative instruments

The Group measures derivatives at fair value using valuation models for financial instruments based on publicly available exchange rates, interest rates, discount curves in particular currencies (applicable also for commodities whose prices are denominated in these currencies) obtained from information platforms and active markets. The fair value of derivative instruments is determined based on discounted future cash flows related from concluded transactions, calculated on the basis of the difference between the forward price and the transaction price. The valuation of IRS transactions is the difference in the discounted interest flows of a fixed rate stream and a floating rate stream. The valuation of CCIRS transactions is the difference in the discounted flows paid and received in two different currencies. Forward exchange rates are not modelled as a separate risk factor, but are derived from the spot rate and the corresponding forward interest rate for the foreign currency in relation to PLN.

Deal Contingent Swap (DCS) transactions entered into by the Group in 2024 were conditional interest rate hedging instruments, whose activation was contingent upon the fulfilment of certain suspensive conditions required to initiate the financing of future investment projects. These instruments were measured in a manner similar to standard IRS transactions, with adjustments reflecting their conditional nature. The valuation of DCS instruments included an adjustment based on the probability of the occurrence of suspensive events that conditioned the activation of the instrument. In addition, cash flows resulting from the DCS instrument – such as the level of margin, which depends on the timing of the suspensive event – were modelled using a scenariobased analysis. In January 2025, upon taking the FID, the condition precedent for the Deal Contingent Swap transaction was fulfilled. From that moment, the new transaction is measured as a standard IRS, with no further adjustments for the risk of non-occurrence of the conditional event.

Commodity and inflation risk hedging transactions (commodity and inflation swaps) are based on indices specified in the underlying agreements. These indices are either quoted on commodity exchanges or their prices are determined in the over-the-counter (OTC) market.

Future developments in interest rates, exchange rates or EUA price levels other than those projected by the Group will have an impact on future financial statements.

In the category of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss, the Group recognises financial instruments related to CO2 emissions trading – including currency and commodity forwards, as well as contracts for the purchase and sale of coal and gas, and commodity swaps (Level 2).

Additionally, the Group presents the CCIRS derivative hedging instrument for foreign exchange (EUR/PLN) and interest rate and the IRS transactions hedging replacing a floating rate in PLN with a fixed rate in PLN (Level 2).

The Group has power purchase agreements (PPAs) in place for the sale of electricity. Four of these contracts contain embedded derivatives that are measured at the end of each reporting period. The effects of changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognised in profit or loss under finance income/costs. The sale of electricity with physical delivery is carried out on a two-component basis, consisting of a fixed element (scheduled for a given year) and a variable component linked to actual electricity production and market prices in monthly settlement periods. The contracts were concluded for a period of up to 10 years, with rights and obligations defined until December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2030, respectively.

Derivative instruments were measured using the discounted cash flow (DCF) method. Net cash flows were calculated as the product of the volume committed for delivery under the agreement and the difference between the fixed contract price for the specified volume and the forecasted electricity price for the relevant period.

For the purpose of valuing the described financial instrument, an electricity price forecast was prepared for a period corresponding to the electricity sale period under the PPA agreements.

Cash flows were discounted using the 1M WIBOR rate to obtain the Mark-to-Market valuation. In accordance with IFRS 13, which defines fair value, and IFRS 9, which requires the consideration of credit risk in determining fair value, an adjustment was additionally applied to the discount rate to reflect the credit quality and credit risk of the entity or counterparty – depending on whether the derivative is classified as in-themoney or out-of-the-money.

The fair value of the embedded derivatives in the CfD (Contract for Difference) was determined in accordance with IFRS 13 using valuation techniques based on unobservable inputs, resulting in classification within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The valuation of the inflation-linked derivative was performed on the basis of the expected level of inflation in Poland and in the euro area, estimated respectively on the basis of available projections published by the National Bank of Poland and the European Central Bank. These assumptions reflect the Group's expectations regarding the development of inflation over the term of the Contract for Difference (CfD).

The valuation of the currency derivative was performed using the forecast EUR/PLN exchange rate, determined – given the long-term nature of the instrument – on the basis of the interest rate differential. The exchange rate volatility parameter was estimated using market data obtained from the Refinitiv Workspace service. All of the above assumptions constitute unobservable inputs and were taken into account in the option valuation model applied to determine the fair value of the instrument.

  • Supply electricity and gas trading on wholesale markets, CO2 emission rights trading, trading in energy origin rights arising from certificates of origin, and the purchase and supply of fuels as well as the sales of electricity and services to end-users.
  • Other Activities services provided to the Capital Group by its subsidiaries, e.g. arrangement of financing, provision of IT and transport services, and investments in start-ups. The companies operating in this segment also provide comprehensive management services for combustion by-products, auxiliary services for electricity and heat producers, and supply materials.

The Group's organisational structure and management are based on this segment division, taking into account the type of products and services offered by them. Each segment represents strategic business unit, generally providing different products and serving distinct markets. The different units are allocated to the business segments as described in Note 1.3 of these consolidated financial statements. Inter-segment transactions are accounted for by the PGE CG as if they were with unrelated parties (at arm's length). In reviewing segment performance, the Group's management primarily focuses on EBITDA.

In the current period, the PGE CG included the Circular Economy segment, whose assets and results in previous periods were recognised and analysed as part of a separately reported segment, in the Other Activities segment. Comparative data has been restated accordingly.

Seasonality of business segments

Electricity and heat demand is affected mainly by:

  • Weather temperature, wind, rainfall,
  • Socioeconomic factors energy consumer base, prices of energy carriers, economic growth, GDP, and
  • Technology advancements and production methods.

Each of these factors influences technical and economic conditions of energy production and energy carrier distribution, thereby affecting the PGE Capital Group's financial results.

The level of electricity sales throughout the year varies and depends mainly on environmental factors such as air temperature and the length of the day. The increase in electricity demand is particularly noticeable during winter, while lower demand is observed in summer. Seasonal variation is also pronounced differently in the case of certain end-user groups – More among households than in the industrial sector.

In the Renewables segment, electricity generation depends on natural resources like water, wind, and solar radiation. Weather conditions are a significant factor influencing electricity production in this segment.

Heat sales are closely tied to ambient temperatures – it is higher in winter and lower in summer.

Currency forwards

Forward foreign exchange transactions mainly relate to trade in CO2 emission allowances. The Group uses hedge accounting to recognise forward FX transactions related to the purchase of CO2 allowances.

Commodity forwards for CO2 and gas purchases under all-in-one hedge accounting

As part of its optimisation portfolio, the Group holds commodity forwards for the purchase of CO2 and gas, settled by the physical delivery of the non-financial contract item. The contracts concluded as part of this portfolio do not meet the conditions of the 'own use' exemption and are recognised as financial instruments at the time of conclusion. At the same time, such contracts are designated as hedging instruments in hedging relationships that are part of an 'all-in-one hedge' strategy.

Options

On January 20, 2017, PGE S.A. acquired from Towarzystwo Finansowe Silesia sp. z o.o. a call option to purchase shares in Polimex-Mostostal S.A. The option was measured using the Black-Scholes method.

Coal swaps

PGE Paliwa sp. z o.o., in order to hedge its commodity price risk related to imported coal, entered into a series of hedge transactions using commodity swaps on coal. The volume and value of these transactions are correlated with the quantity and value of imported coal. Changes in fair value are recognised in the profit and loss account.

Coal purchase and sale contracts with physical delivery

PGE Paliwa sp. z o.o. measures all coal purchase and sale contracts with physical delivery using the traderbroker model at fair value.

Embedded derivatives in commercial contracts

The Group holds long-term Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) in its portfolio. Four of these contracts contain embedded derivatives that are measured at the end of each reporting period. The effects of changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognised in profit or loss under finance income/costs.

IRS transactions

The Group has active IRS transactions to hedge the interest rate on its credits and issued bonds. Their total original nominal value amounted to PLN 3,900 million (PLN 2,500 million for credits and PLN 1,400 million for bonds). In March 2025, the Group entered into a new IRS instrument securing a loan with a nominal value of PLN 500 million. In connection with the commencement of the repayment of the principal amount of certain credits, the current nominal amount of IRS transactions hedging the credits is PLN 1,250 million. To recognise these IRS transactions, the Group uses hedge accounting. The impact of hedge accounting on the revaluation reserve is presented in Note 20.2 to these consolidated financial statements.

In June and July 2024, the Group entered into Deal Contingent Swap (DCS) transactions – conditional interest rate hedging instruments, whose activation was contingent upon the fulfilment of certain suspensive conditions required to initiate the financing of a future investment project, i.e. Baltica 2.

In January 2025, upon taking the FID, the condition precedent for the Deal Contingent Swap transaction was fulfilled. Accordingly, in February 2025, novation transactions of IRS derivative instruments hedging the interest rate risk of the loan agreement concluded under the Project Finance formula were executed.

To recognise these transactions, the Group uses hedge accounting. The purpose of the hedging relationship is to mitigate the volatility of cash flows affecting the Group's financial result, arising from external financing transactions related to the offshore wind farm construction project.

Inflation and commodity swaps

In October 2024, the Group entered into conditional hedging transactions (inflation swaps and commodity swaps) to hedge against inflation risk and commodity price risk (index-linked components) under contracts for the supply of key components, in order to meet the financing requirements of the Baltica 2 project granted under a Project Finance structure.

Following the Final Investment Decision (FID) and fulfilment of the conditional trigger, in February 2025 the Group signed novation agreements for the transactions hedging the risk of inflation and the prices of commodities being indexation factors (inflation swaps and commodity swaps). The novated contracts were concluded under the same terms.

CCIRS hedging transactions

In connection with loans received from PGE Sweden AB (publ), PGE S.A. concluded CCIRS transactions hedging the exchange rate related to the repayment of principal and interest. In these transactions, bankscounterparties pay PGE S.A. interest based on a fixed rate in EUR and PGE S.A. pays interest based on a fixed rate in PLN. Since these loans create an exposure to foreign exchange differences that are not fully eliminated in the consolidation process, the CCIRS transactions serve as hedging instruments for the aforementioned intra-group transactions at the consolidated level, in accordance with paragraph 6.3.6 of IFRS 9.

To recognise these CCIRS transactions, PGE CG uses hedge accounting. The impact of hedge accounting is presented in Note 20.2 to these financial statements.

Embedded derivatives in the Contract for Difference (CfD)

EWB2 is a party to a Contract for Difference, which ensures a stable level of revenue from electricity generation from an offshore wind farm. When the market price of electricity during the production period is lower than the price in the CfD, EWB2 will receive the price difference. Conversely, when the market price is higher than the contract price, EWB2 will pay back the difference. According to the financial projections of the PGE Capital Group, positive cash flows from the CfD will be significantly higher than negative cash flows from the perspective of EWB2. The electricity producer has the option to determine all or part of the contract price in euro. The contract price is indexed to the Polish inflation index.

In the opinion of the PGE Group, the CfD mechanism as a whole meets the criteria for a government grant within the meaning of IAS 20, and the Group intends to recognise the cash flows from the contract in accordance with IAS 20. Nevertheless, within the CfD the PGE Group identifies two embedded derivative instruments that require separation and measurement in accordance with IFRS 9: an inflation-linked derivative and a currency option. The date of initial recognition of these instruments is close to the date on which the construction of the wind farm became sufficiently probable through the receipt of all relevant corporate approvals and the conclusion of key project financing agreements.

As at the initial recognition date, the value of the currency option was determined at PLN 2,563 million. The inflation-linked derivative was separated from the CfD instrument with an initial value of EUR 0. As at September 30, 2025, the value of these instruments was determined at PLN 2,060 million and EUR (77) million, respectively. In these consolidated financial statements, the PGE Capital Group recognises 50% of the value of these financial instruments under non-current financial assets, i.e. PLN 1,030 million for the currency option and EUR (38) million for the inflation-linked derivative. The initial value of the currency instrument was recognised in derivative instruments with a corresponding entry in deferred income. The change in the value of financial instruments is reflected in financial activities.

Investment fund participation units

As at the reporting date, the Group held participation units in three sub-funds of Towarzystwo Funduszy Inwestycyjnych PZU S.A.

Equity

The basic assumption of the Group's capital management policy is to maintain an optimal capital structure in the long term, ensure good financial standing and safe capital structure ratios that would support the operating activities of the PGE Capital Group. Maintaining a strong capital base is also of key importance, as it is the foundation for building trust among future investors, lenders, and the market, and ensures the future development of the Capital Group.

Shareholder rights – the State Treasury's rights related to the Company's operations

The Company is a member of the PGE Capital Group, with respect to which the State Treasury holds special rights as long as it remains its shareholder.

The State Treasury's special rights which may be exercised with respect to the companies belonging to the PGE Capital Group are specified in the Act of March 18, 2010 on special rights of a minister competent for energy affairs and their exercise with respect to certain capital companies or capital groups conducting business activities in the electricity, petrol, and gaseous fuels sectors (consolidated text: Dz.U. [Journal of Laws] of 2020, item 2173). The Act specifies special rights held by the minister competent for energy with respect to capital companies or capital groups conducting business activities in the electricity, petrol, and gaseous fuels sectors whose assets are disclosed in the standardised specification of facilities, installations, equipment and services included in the composition of the critical infrastructure.

On the basis of the provisions in question, the minister responsible for state assets may object to a resolution adopted by the Management Board or any other legal action carried out by the Management Board, the object of which is the disposal of an asset posing a threat to the functioning, continuity of operation and integrity of critical infrastructure. An objection could also be filed against the Company governing bodies' resolutions concerning the following issues:

  • the dissolution of the Company,
  • changes in the use of, or refusal to use, an asset constituting a component of the critical infrastructure,
  • changes in the objects of the Company,
  • the disposal or lease of an enterprise or its organised part, or the establishment of a limited property right thereon,
  • the adoption of a material and financial plan, a capital expenditures plan, or a long-term strategic plan,
  • the transfer of the Company's registered office abroad,

if the implementation of such a resolution could constitute a real threat to the functioning, operational continuity, and integrity of the critical infrastructure.

An objection is expressed in the form of an administrative decision.

Provision for employee benefits

Provisions for employee benefits mainly include:

  • post-employment benefits PLN 2,618 million as at September 30, 2025, PLN 2,490 million in the comparative period,
  • jubilee rewards PLN 940 million as at September 30, 2025 and PLN 943 million in the comparative period.

Provision for rehabilitation expenses

Provision for rehabilitation of mine pits

The PGE Capital Group creates provisions for the rehabilitation of final excavation sites. The amount of the provision reported in the financial statements also includes the value of the Mine Decommissioning Fund, created in accordance with the Geological and Mining Law. As at September 30, 2025, the value of the provision amounts to PLN 5,919 million, and as at December 31, 2024, it was PLN 5,379 million.

Provision for rehabilitation of ash landfills

The Group's generating units recognise provisions for the rehabilitation of ash landfill sites. As at September 30, 2025, the value of the provision amounts to PLN 293 million (compared to PLN 259 million at the end of the comparative period).

Provision for the decommissioning of property, plant and equipment

As at the reporting date, the provision amounts to PLN 400 million (PLN 370 million at the end of the comparative period) and relates to certain assets within the Coal Energy and Renewables segments.

Other rehabilitation provisions

Group companies recognise a provision for other rehabilitation-related costs in the amount of PLN 8 million (PLN 7 million as at December 31, 2024).

Provision for CO2 emission costs

This provision is recognised based on the value of both paid and free allowances. Since 2020, the Group has only been entitled to free allowances for heat production. In 2024, regulations changed with respect to the deadline for fulfilling the obligation to surrender CO2 emission allowances, postponing the surrender date for a given year to September of the following year. Despite this change, the Group presents the provision in the current portion, as the obligation is settled within the normal operating cycle of the Group. As at September 30, 2025, the value of the provision amounts to PLN 11,724 million (compared to PLN 17,098 million at the end of the comparative period).

Provision for energy origin rights intended for redemption

Companies within the PGE Capital Group recognise provisions for the value of energy origin certificates related to sales made during the reporting period or previous periods, to the extent not cancelled by the reporting date. As at September 30, 2025, the provision amounts to PLN 244 million (PLN 454 million in the comparative period), and is primarily recognised by PGE Obrót S.A. and PGE Energetyka Kolejowa S.A.

Provision for onerous contracts

The provision for onerous contracts is recognised mainly in PGE Obrót and PGE GiEK.

In accordance with the Act of February 20, 2015 on Renewable Energy Sources, a prosumer settled under the 'net metering' model receives a rebate on active energy and variable distribution charges amounting to 80% or 70% of the volume of energy fed into the grid. Energy suppliers settle the full amount of distribution charges with distribution companies, based on the energy drawn from the grid by the prosumer (without considering the rebate). The prosumer does not bear the cost of variable distribution charges for the portion of energy drawn from the grid that is offset by energy fed into the grid, meaning that the full cost is borne by the energy suppliers. The revenues obtained by the supplier for acquiring 20% or 30% of the energy fed into the grid by prosumers do not fully cover these costs. Taking into account the purchase prices of electricity in relation to the 20% or 30% share of energy taken over from the prosumer, and the trading result on electricity under these contracts, the forecast result for 2025 from prosumer settlements in tariff groups Gx is expected to remain negative. The amount of the provision in PGE Obrót for onerous contracts remaining to be settled as at September 30, 2025 is PLN 30 million (PLN 120 million in the comparative period). The amount of any provision for the period after December 31, 2025 will depend in particular on the future electricity price for households set out in the tariff approved by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office.

The provision for onerous contracts in PGE GiEK relates to selected sales contracts concerning the Dolna Odra Power Plant, concluded due to the technical limitations of the plant. In these contracts, the planned revenues will not cover the planned costs directly related to the performance of the contracts. Consequently, as at September 30, 2025, a provision in the amount of PLN 47 million was recognised in PGE GiEK.

Other provisions

Provision for potential claims from contractors

As at September 30, 2025, provisions for potential claims from contractors consisted mainly of provisions recognised by ENESTA sp. z o.o. – PLN 52 million (PLN 62 million in the comparative period), PGE GiEK S.A. Turów Power Plant – PLN 135 million in the current and comparative periods, and PGE Energia Ciepła – PLN 34 million in the current and comparative periods.

Additionally, in 2021, the Group recognised a provision of PLN 39 million in connection with the sale of shares in PGE EJ1 sp. z o.o. to the State Treasury. Pursuant to the Agreement regulating the liability of former Shareholders for costs related to the dispute with Worley Parsons, PGE S.A. may be required to cover litigation costs up to a maximum of PLN 98 million in the event of an unfavourable outcome. An amount of PLN 59 million is recognised as a contingent liability, as disclosed in Note 24.1.

Restructuring provision

In connection with the gradual decommissioning of coal-fired units at the Dolna Odra Power Plant, a restructuring provision was recognised for the planned severance costs for employees in the amount of PLN 233 million. The amount of the provision was recognised in employee benefit costs.

Financial liabilities

The carrying amounts of financial liabilities measured at amortised cost represent a reasonable approximation of their fair values, except for bonds issued by PGE Sweden AB (publ), the loan agreements concluded with the EIB and the loan agreement under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan.

The bonds issued by PGE Sweden AB (publ) bear a fixed interest rate. Their amortised cost presented in these consolidated financial statements as at September 30, 2025 amounts to EUR 139 million, while their fair value is EUR 134 million.

In the case of the loan agreements concluded with the EIB, based on a fixed interest rate, the amortised cost disclosed in the financial statements as at the reporting date amounted to PLN 4,333 million and their fair value amounted to PLN 4,410 million.

The loan agreement under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan is based on a fixed interest rate. Its amortised cost disclosed in the financial statements as at the reporting date amounted to PLN 1,307 million and their fair value amounted to PLN 1,313 million.

Security for the repayment of subsidies from environmental, research and development funds

The liabilities represent the value of possible future repayments received by the PGE Capital Group companies from environmental and development funds towards selected investments. A refund will be required if the subsidised investments do not have the desired impact.

In 2025, PGE Dystrybucja S.A. issued promissory notes securing agreements for co-financing from EU funds for a total amount of approximately PLN 926 million. The newly acquired grant funds will be allocated to investment projects mainly related to:

  • Construction and modernisation of the smart energy grid,
  • Development of the smart energy grid,
  • Construction of special LTE450 communication networks,
  • Central Power Dispatch dedicated to managing 110 kV lines.

As at December 31, 2024, PGE Dystrybucja S.A. held promissory note liabilities of approximately PLN 784 million securing co-financing agreements from EU and national funds. The funds obtained from grants are used for the implementation of investment projects concerning, among others:

  • The development of a smart electricity grid in selected branches of the company,
  • The Remote Meter Reading Programme in PGE Dystrybucja S.A.,
  • Power supply for the Euro-Park Stalowa Wola area for the development of electromobility.

Litigation liabilities

In connection with the sale of shares in PGE EJ1 sp. z o.o. to the State Treasury effected in 2021, and in accordance with the concluded Agreement regulating the liability of the existing Shareholders for the costs of the dispute with Worley Parsons, PGE S.A. may be obliged to cover the costs of the dispute in the maximum amount of PLN 98 million if the dispute is lost. Therefore, for the purpose of determining the fair value of the payment received, the probability of losing the dispute was estimated. As a result, an amount of PLN 59 million was recognised in contingent liabilities and an amount of PLN 39 million in short-term provisions.

The liabilities also include the value of court litigations arising from the implementation of the investment in PGE GiEK S.A. Elektrownia Turów, in the total amount of PLN 578 million. A detailed description of the disputes is provided in Note 24.3 of these financial statements.

Liabilities under bank guarantees

The liabilities include bank guarantees issued by the companies, deposited as security for exchange transactions arising from membership in IRGiT.

Perpetual usufruct of land

Contingent liabilities arising from the perpetual usufruct of land are related to the receipt of updated annual fees for the perpetual usufruct. Branches of PGE GiEK S.A. have appealed against the related decisions to the Local Government Board of Appeals. The contingent liability was measured as the difference between the discounted sum of the updated perpetual usufruct fees for the entire period for which the perpetual usufruct was established and the liability for the perpetual usufruct of land, recognised in the books based on previous fees.

Other contingent liabilities

During 2024 the general contractor for the investment in PGE Nowy Rybnik sp. z o.o. submitted a request for indexation of the contract price. An external law firm was engaged to analyse the substantive merits of the request. The company does not, in principle, recognise the contractor's claim, but, acting on the prudence principle, recognised a contingent liability of PLN 20 million.

In August 2022, a 'Reimbursement Agreement' was concluded between companies EWB1, EWB2, and EWB3 and the company responsible for the construction of the installation port in Gdańsk. The agreement provides for the reimbursement of costs incurred by the contractor in connection with the construction of the installation port, in the event that the aforementioned companies do not proceed with the investment. In 2024, in connection with the signing of the preliminary lease agreement for terminal T5, the contingent liability for cost reimbursement in EWB2 expired. The current value of the contingent liability is estimated at EUR 4.3 million, and, divided between the companies, reimbursement of costs will be made on a 50/50 basis by each company. Accordingly, the potential liability attributable to the PGE CG, taking into account the shareholdings referred to in Note 1.3.2, has been estimated at approx. PLN 13.9 million.

Other significant issues related to contingent liabilities

Non-contractual use of real estate

The PGE Capital Group recognises a provision for disputes concerning non-contractual use of real estate serving distribution activities that have been submitted to court proceedings. Furthermore, disputes at earlier stages of proceedings exist within the PGE Capital Group, and an increase in the number and value of similar claims in the future cannot be ruled out.

Contractual fuel purchase obligations

In accordance with agreements in place for the purchase of natural gas, the Group is obliged to offtake a specified minimum quantity of fuel, as well as not to exceed a specified maximum volume of natural gas consumption during the different periods. Failure to offtake the minimum volumes of fuel or exceeding the maximum volumes specified in the agreements may result in the obligation to pay additional charges (in the case of certain gas purchase agreements, volumes not offtaken but paid for may be offtaken in subsequent delivery periods). As at September 30, 2025, the Group does not recognise provisions for this.

Obligations related to maintaining fuel stocks

In accordance with applicable legal regulations, an energy enterprise engaged in generation of electricity or heat is required to maintain fuel stocks in quantities ensuring the continuity of electricity or heat supply to consumers.

In previous reporting periods, there were several breaches of the minimum coal stock requirements in the generating units of PGE GiEK S.A. operating on hard coal (Opole Power Plant, Dolna Odra Power Plant, Rybnik Power Plant). A number of factors beyond the Group's control contributed to the failure to maintain minimum hard coal stock levels and to the difficulties in rebuilding those stocks at the power plants. The most recent periods in which a breach of minimum coal stock requirements was recorded were January and February 2023.

Pursuant to Article 56(1)(2) of the Energy Law, a monetary fine shall be imposed on anyone who fails to comply with the obligation to maintain fuel stocks (...) or to replenish them on time, (...). It should be noted that the mere occurrence of a breach of a prohibition or obligation set out in the Energy Law results in the imposition of a fine by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office. According to Article 56(3) of the Energy Law, the amount of the fine may not be less than PLN 10,000 and not more than 15% of the revenue of the penalised enterprise achieved in the previous tax year. If the monetary fine is related to an activity conducted under a concession, the amount of the fine may not be less than PLN 10,000 and not more than 15% of the revenue from the concession activity in the previous tax year.

As at the date of these financial statements, no fine has been imposed on PGE GiEK S.A. for failure to maintain and restore coal stocks at the required level. As at the date of these statements, coal stock levels are maintained as required.

Given the above-mentioned circumstances – namely the external factors beyond the CG's control that caused the breach and failure to restore coal stocks on time, as well as the absence of any prior penalties imposed on PGE GiEK S.A. for this reason – such circumstances should serve as grounds for a proportional reduction in any potential fine. The Group estimates that the value of any potential fine imposed would not be material, and therefore no provision has been recognised in these financial statements on this account.

Funds from an increase in the Company's share capital

On April 5, 2022, an investment agreement was concluded between PGE S.A. and the State Treasury concerning the subscription by the State Treasury for shares issued as part of a share capital increase. In accordance with the provisions of the agreement, the funds raised from the share issue, amounting to PLN 3.2 billion, are to be used exclusively for investments in the areas of renewable energy, decarbonisation, and distribution. The use of proceeds from the issue is subject to detailed reporting and auditing. On April 26, 2023 and on April 24, 2025, the agreement was amended due to the need to adjust the expenditure schedule across individual investment projects. The use of funds in a manner inconsistent with the investment agreement may result in financial penalties, or in extreme cases, the requirement to return the funds. The PGE Group is using the funds in compliance with the investment agreement. As at September 30, 2025, the balance of funds remaining to be spent from the share issue amounts to approximately PLN 321 million, while as at December 31, 2024 it was approx. PLN 508 million.

Contingent liabilities related to factoring

As at September 30, 2025, the Group held contingent liabilities in the form of Statements of Submission to Enforcement under Article 777 §1 of the Civil Procedure Code, serving as collateral for the Group's receivables under reverse factoring agreements with a total value of PLN 3,450 million as at the reporting date.

Security arrangements for financing transactions of Baltica 2 OWF

In March 2025, in connection with the execution of loan agreements to finance the construction of the Baltica 2 offshore wind farm, referred to in Note 27.4, the following collateral for the project financing transaction was established:

  • registered and financial pledge agreements over shares in PGE Baltica 6 entered into between PGE Baltica 2 and Deutsche Bank Luxembourg totalling 1,684,434 shares;
  • registered and financial pledge agreements over shares in EW Baltica 2 entered into between PGE Baltica 6 and Deutsche Bank Luxembourg totalling 200,115 shares;
  • agreements on registered and financial pledges on bank accounts of PGE Baltica 6,
  • security assignment agreements between PGE Baltica 6 and Deutsche Bank;
  • agreement on registered pledge on assets of PGE Baltica 6;
  • registered pledge agreement and civil-law pledges over the VAT bank account of EW Baltica 2;
  • a security assignment agreement between PGE Baltica 2 and Deutsche Bank;
  • a security assignment agreement between PGE S.A. and Deutsche Bank.

In addition, further security instruments have been established in the form of Statements of Submission to Enforcement. The maximum value of the security arrangements for loan agreements is PLN 35.8 billion.

The implementation and financing of the Baltica 2 Project are described in Note 27.4 to these financial statements.

Other court cases and disputes

Matter of compensation for share conversion

On November 12, 2014, the company Socrates Investment S.A. (the assignee of claims from former shareholders of PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka S.A.) filed a lawsuit seeking damages in the total amount of over PLN 493 million (plus interest), alleging losses incurred as a result of the allegedly improper determination of the share exchange ratio in the merger process of PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka S.A. with PGE S.A. The Company submitted a statement of defence. On November 15, 2017, the Company received a pleading from the claimant amending the claim to increase the amount sought to PLN 636 million. The court proceedings in the first instance are currently ongoing. The court commissioned an expert opinion. No date has been set for another hearing.

In addition, a similar claim was filed by Pozwy sp. z o.o., the assignee of claims from former shareholders of PGE Elektrownia Opole S.A. Pozwy sp. z o.o., by way of a statement of claim filed with the District Court in Warsaw against PGE GiEK S.A., PGE S.A., and PwC Polska sp. z o.o. (hereinafter referred to as the Defendants), requested the court to order the Defendants to pay, in solidum or, alternatively, jointly and severally, damages in the total amount of over PLN 260 million together with interest, on account of the allegedly improper determination of the share exchange ratio of PGE Elektrownia Opole S.A. shares for PGE GiEK S.A. shares during the merger of those companies. The statement of claim was served on PGE S.A. on March 9, 2017. PGE S.A. and PGE GiEK S.A. filed a joint statement of defence on July 8, 2017. On September 28, 2018, the District Court in Warsaw delivered its first-instance judgment – the claim filed by Pozwy sp. z o.o. was dismissed. On April 8, 2019, PGE S.A. received a copy of the appeal filed by the claimant on December 7, 2018. PGE S.A. and PGE GiEK S.A.'s response to the appeal was prepared on April 23, 2019. The hearing was held on December 21, 2020. The Court of Appeal issued a verdict in which it overturned the appealed verdict of the District Court in its entirety and returned the case for re-examination to the District Court. On January

22, 2021 PGE S.A. together with PGE GiEK S.A. filed a complaint against the verdict to the Supreme Court, requesting that the verdict of the Court of Appeal be reversed in its entirety and the case be returned to the Court of Appeal for re-examination. At a closed session on April 27, 2021, the Supreme Court overturned the appealed verdict. Thus, the case was returned for re-examination by the Court of Appeal. In its judgment of January 10, 2024, the Court of Appeal upheld the claimant's appeal and overturned the appealed verdict of the District Court and referred the case back to that court. During 2024 and 2025 the District Court in Warsaw set successive hearing dates at which witnesses were examined in the case (representatives of PGE, PwC and PKF – a company reviewing the merger plan). On September 1, 2025 a hearing was held concerning the request by Pozwy sp. z o.o. for access to PGE's documentation, at which the judge ultimately granted such access. The most recent hearing took place on October 27, 2025, at which a representative of PwC was examined. His testimony was favourable or neutral for PGE S.A. and PGE GiEK S.A., as well as for PwC. The hearing was adjourned without a date.

The PGE Group companies do not recognise the claims of Socrates Investment S.A. and Pozwy sp. z o.o. According to PGE S.A., these claims are groundless and the entire consolidation process was conducted in a fair and correct manner. The value of shares in the companies subject to consolidation had been determined by an independent company, i.e. PwC Polska sp. z o.o. Furthermore, the consolidation plan, including the ratio of converting shares in the acquired company into shares in the acquiring company was audited with respect to its correctness and reliability by an expert appointed by the court of registration, and no irregularities were identified. The court subsequently registered the merger of the aforementioned companies.

The PGE Group did not establish any provision for the filed lawsuit.

Matters related to the request from the Polimex-Mostostal consortium for an increase in the contract price for the construction of the CHP plant in Siechnice

On June 23, 2021, a contract was signed for the construction of a gas and steam combined heat and power (CHP) plant for KOGENERACJA S.A. with a consortium consisting of Polimex Mostostal S.A. and Polimex Energetyka sp. z o.o. The contract value at the time of signing was set at PLN 1,159 million net.

Due to what the Consortium considers to be the impact of extraordinary changes in economic conditions – specifically, rising prices of goods and materials resulting from the combined effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the new phase of armed aggression by the Russian Federation against Ukraine – in 2023, KOGENERACJA S.A. received requests from the Consortium to increase the contract remuneration by PLN 344 million. On September 15, 2023, the parties entered into a mediation agreement before Permanent Mediators at the Arbitration Court of the General Counsel to the Republic of Poland. In the course of the proceedings, interim court measures were applied and appeals were lodged.

On November 8, 2024, following the mediation process, KOGENERACJA S.A. and the Consortium signed a minutes of understanding for the Parties' findings concerning a partial settlement ending the dispute related to the Consortium's financial claims to increase the contractual remuneration by a net amount of PLN 157 million.

After obtaining the consent of the Extraordinary General Meeting on March 13, 2025, the settlement was concluded on March 19, 2025. On July 31, 2025, KOGENERACJA S.A. received information on the decision of the District Court in Wrocław regarding the approval of a mediation settlement. Following the court-approved settlement, on August 19, 2025, Annex No 1 to the agreement was concluded with the Consortium. The settlement amicably ended the dispute between the parties concerning the adaptation of the contractual remuneration to the changed conditions of performance of the obligation.

As a result of the settlement and the signing of the annex, on September 10, 2025 the District Court in Wrocław, 10th Commercial Division, issued a decision discontinuing the proceedings concerning the increase in the contractual remuneration by the net amount of PLN 344 million. In connection with the discontinuation of the above case, the related proceedings regarding the granting of interim measures in favour of the Consortium were also concluded.

The dispute concerning the performance deadline specified in the agreement as April 30, 2024 remains subject to the ongoing mediation agreement, which is to be concluded by way of a further annex to the contract. On October 29, 2025, KOGENERACJA S.A. and the Consortium signed an annex to the mediation agreement extending the mediation process until January 30, 2026.

Penalties for the contractor of Unit 7 at the Turów Power Plant

In 2022, PGE GiEK S.A. imposed a contractual penalty of PLN 562 million on the contractor of Unit 7 at the Turów Power Plant – a consortium comprising Mitsubishi Power Europe GmbH, TECNICAS REUNIDAS S.A., and BUDIMEX S.A. – for failing to meet the availability index in the first year of the warranty period. In July 2022, the Company submitted a payment demand to the consortium, which was rejected. The contractual penalty was fully covered by an impairment allowance in 2022.

On June 15, 2023, PGE GiEK S.A. submitted a request to the General Counsel to the Republic of Poland for mediation with the involvement of a mediator from the Arbitration Court at the General Counsel's Office, in an attempt to amicably resolve disputes arising under the Contract. Mediation, which continued through 2023 and 2024, had not been concluded as of the date of these financial statements.

On October 23, 2023, PGE GiEK S.A. filed a lawsuit with the District Court in Łódź against the contractor, demanding the rectification of certain defects in Unit 7 at the Turów Power Plant. The value of the dispute amounts to PLN 200 million.

Additionally, PGE GiEK S.A. held performance bonds totalling PLN 135 million and advance payment guarantees totalling PLN 7 million. On June 21, 2024, PGE GiEK S.A. submitted payment requests to the bank under the existing guarantees and received a total of PLN 142 million in July 2024. The PLN 135 million related to the performance bonds was not recognised in profit or loss due to the ongoing mediation proceedings.

On October 30, 2024, PGE GiEK S.A. issued a debit note in the amount of PLN 357 million for failure to meet the availability index in the second year of the warranty period and for delays in remedying defects. Due to the significant risk of this note being challenged by the contractor, it was fully covered by an impairment allowance.

On December 13, 2024, PGE GiEK S.A. offset part of the receivable related to the contractual penalty for Unit 7's unavailability in the first year of the warranty period against the contractor's receivable for the return of the enforced performance bond, totalling nearly PLN 135 million. This resulted in the partial reversal of the impairment allowance related to the penalty, while simultaneously recognising a provision of the same amount due to the significant risk of the offset being contested by the contractor.

On December 24, 2024, PGE GiEK S.A. filed a lawsuit with the District Court in Łódź against the contractor, seeking a total of PLN 1,046 million. The total amount of claims pursued in court proceedings against the contractor of Unit 7 at the Turów Power Plant stands at PLN 1,246 million. In January and February 2025, PGE GiEK S.A. received two lawsuits from the contractor demanding payments totalling PLN 627 million and EUR 17 million, which PGE GiEK S.A. does not acknowledge. No provisions have been recognised by the Group in respect of the claims filed by the contractor.

The mutual claims between PGE GiEK S.A. and the contractor of Unit 7 at the Turów Power Plant, as described above, had no impact on the financial result in 2024 as well as in the first three quarters of 2025.

On July 15, 2025, the Management Board of PGE GiEK S.A. adopted a resolution on the acceptance of the content of the application for conciliation proceedings before the Arbitration Court at the General Counsel to the Republic of Poland with the Contractor of Unit 7 at the Turów Power Plant Branch, together with a proposed settlement. The contractor accepted the draft conciliation proposal. A joint application by the parties for conciliation was filed on August 4, 2025, with the Arbitration Court at the Office of the General Counsel to the Republic of Poland, which adopted a conciliatory position on August 27. Further arrangements between the parties regarding the content of a possible settlement are ongoing.

Environmental decision regarding the Turów Mine

On May 31, 2023, the Voivodeship Administrative Court (VAC) in Warsaw suspended – until the relevant complaint is reviewed – the enforceability of the environmental decision for coal extraction at the Turów Mine. The environmental decision sets out the conditions for the implementation of the project titled: 'Continued Exploitation of the Turów Lignite Deposit project carried out in Bogatynia municipality.' The complaint against the environmental decision was filed, among others, by the Frank Bold Foundation, Greenpeace, and the EKO-UNIA Ecological Association.

On June 12, 2023, PGE GiEK S.A. filed a complaint with the Supreme Administrative Court (NSA) in Warsaw against the VAC's ruling of May 31, 2023 regarding the Turów Mine. This was the company's response to the VAC's suspension of the enforceability of the environmental permit issued by the General Directorate for Environmental Protection (GDOŚ) in September 2022.

On July 18, 2023, the SAC overturned the VAC's decision of May 31, 2023 to suspend the enforceability of the environmental decision concerning the Turów Mine. The appeals of GDOŚ, PGE GiEK S.A., and the National Prosecutor's Office were upheld.

On August 31, 2023, the WSA suspended the proceedings regarding the environmental decision issued by GDOŚ for the Turów Mine until the formal conclusion of proceedings initiated by PGE GiEK S.A. requesting an amendment to the environmental decision. The amendment proceedings ended with a final and binding decision to discontinue the case.

On March 13, 2024, the VAC annulled the GDOŚ decision that had set the environmental conditions for the continued exploitation of the lignite deposit at Turów. The WSA emphasised that this ruling does not imply closure or suspension of operations at the Turów Mine. The ruling is not final.

On April 30, 2024, PGE GiEK S.A. received a copy of the judgment along with its justification. The ruling is not final. On May 29, 2024, PGE GiEK S.A. filed a cassation complaint with the Supreme Administrative Court.

The same judgment was also fully appealed on May 17, 2024 by the General Director for Environmental Protection. Following the delivery of the General Director for Environmental Protection's cassation complaint, PGE GiEK S.A. submitted a response on July 2, 2024, requesting that the complaint be upheld and that the judgment of the Voivodeship Administrative Court be overturned. The judgment was also appealed by environmental organisations, and PGE GiEK S.A. submitted responses to those cassation complaints as well.

In a ruling issued on March 18, 2025, the Supreme Administrative Court overturned the VAC's judgment of February 1, 2022 concerning the immediate enforceability clause attached to the environmental permit issued by the Regional Director for Environmental Protection in Wrocław for the continuation of lignite mining at the Turów Mine, and referred the case back to the VAC for reconsideration. As part of the re-examination of the case, the VAC in Warsaw, in its ruling of June 10, 2025, dismissed the complaints of environmental organisations against the GDOŚ's decision regarding the immediate enforceability of the environmental decision. The judgment is not final, as environmental organisations have filed cassation appeals with the SAC. The environmental decision is enforceable.

Integrated permit for PGE Gryfino Dolna Odra sp. z o.o.

On October 10, 2025 PGE Gryfino Dolna Odra sp. z o.o. received a copy of the judgment with justification of the Voivodeship Administrative Court in Warsaw dated July 2, 2025. The Voivodeship Administrative Court in Warsaw reversed the decision of the Minister of Climate and Environment of January 24, 2025 (the "Minister's Decision"), which had upheld the decision of the Marshal of the Zachodniopomorskie Voivodeship of April 12, 2024 (the "First Instance Authority"), granting PGE Gryfino 2050 sp. z o.o. (now PGE Gryfino Dolna Odra sp. z o.o.) an integrated permit to operate a fuel combustion installation in Krajnik (the "Installation").

The reversal of the Minister's Decision by the Provincial Administrative Court does not automatically result in the annulment of the decision of the First Instance Authority.

Currently, action scenarios related to the court ruling are being analysed, which allow for the lawful and uninterrupted operation of the Installation. The Company continues its operating activities and fulfils the contracts concluded.

Decisions of the President of the Energy Regulatory Office regarding annual adjustment of costs incurred in gas-fired units

On August 1, 2023, the company PGE Zielona Góra S.A. (formerly: Elektrociepłownia Zielona Góra S.A.) received an administrative decision from the President of the Energy Regulatory Office regarding the amount of the annual cost adjustment for gas-fired units, as referred to in Article 44(1) of the Act on Long-Term Power Purchase Agreements (the Long-Term PPA Act), relating to the year 2022. In the decision, the President of the Energy Regulatory Office set the annual adjustment at PLN 35 million. The company disagrees with the decision and, on August 16, 2023, filed an appeal with the District Court in Warsaw – the Court of Competition and Consumer Protection – along with a request to suspend enforcement of the decision. On September 28, 2023, the court issued a decision to suspend the execution of the President's decision until a final ruling is issued in the case initiated by the appeal. As of the date of publication of these financial statements, the date of the first hearing has not been set.

On July 31, 2024, PGE Zielona Góra S.A. (formerly: Elektrociepłownia Zielona Góra S.A.) received an administrative decision from the President of the Energy Regulatory Office regarding the annual adjustment for the year 2023. In the decision, the President set the adjustment at PLN 99 million. The company disagrees with this decision as well and, on August 20, 2024, filed an appeal with the District Court in Warsaw – Court of Competition and Consumer Protection – and, on 30 August 2024, submitted a request to suspend the enforcement of the decision.

On September 16, 2024, the District Court in Warsaw, 17th Division – Court of Competition and Consumer Protection, issued a decision to suspend the execution of the President's decision regarding the settlement of the gas compensation for 2023 until a final ruling is issued in the case initiated by the appeal. As of the date of publication of these financial statements, the date of the first hearing has not been set.

On August 5, 2025, PGE Zielona Góra S.A. (formerly: Elektrociepłownia Zielona Góra S.A.) received an administrative decision from the President of the Energy Regulatory Office of July 30, 2025, regarding the amount of the annual cost adjustment for gas-fired units, as referred to in Article 44(1) of the Long-Term PPA Act, relating to the year 2024. In the decision, the President of the Energy Regulatory Office set the annual adjustment at PLN 0.8 million. The company disagrees with the decision and, on August 19, 2025, filed an appeal with the Energy Regulatory Office. On September 19, 2025, the Court of Competition and Consumer Protection issued a decision to suspend the execution of the President's 2024 decision until a final ruling is issued in the case initiated by the appeal. As of the date of publication of these financial statements, the date of the first hearing has not been set.

The discrepancy between the company and Energy Regulatory Office in the above matters arises from differing interpretations of the Long-Term PPA Act, in particular Article 46(1)(5) and Article 34. The Group has recognised a liability of PLN 135 million in the accounting records.

Charge to the Price Difference Payment Fund

The issue of diverging interpretations of regulations concerning the calculation of the charge to the Price Difference Payment Fund (PDPF) is described in Note 27.2 of these financial statements.

Tax settlements

Tax-related obligations and rights are specified in the Constitution, tax acts, and ratified international agreements. According to the Tax Code, tax is defined as a public law, gratuitous, compulsory and nonrefundable cash benefit for the State Treasury, province, district or commune as provided for in the Tax Act. Taking into consideration the subjective criterion, the taxes in force in Poland can be divided into the following five groups: taxes on income, taxes on turnover, taxes on property, taxes on actions, and other fees not elsewhere classified.

From the point of view of business entities, the most important aspect is taxation of income (corporate income tax), taxation of turnover (goods and services tax, excise tax) and taxation of property (property tax, tax on means of transport). One should not forget about other fees and charges which can be classified as quasi taxes. These include, among others, social insurance contributions.

The basic tax rates are as follows: the corporate income tax rate is 19%, with a reduced rate of 9% available for small enterprises; the standard VAT rate is 23%, with reduced rates of 8%, 5%, and 0%. In addition, certain goods and services are exempt from VAT.

The tax system in Poland is characterised by a high level of changeability and complexity of tax regulations, and high potential penalties for tax crimes or violations. Tax settlements and other activity areas subject to regulations (customs or currency inspections) can undergo inspections conducted by competent authorities entitled to issue fines and penalties together with penalty interest. A competent tax authorities may inspect tax settlements for five years from the end of the calendar year in which the deadline for the payment of tax expires.

Income tax

Minimum income tax

As of January 1, 2024, the previously suspended provisions regarding the minimum income tax have come into force. The minimum tax applies to taxpayers who report a tax loss from sources of income other than capital gains or whose profitability (understood as the ratio of income from sources other than capital gains to revenue from such sources) is lower than 2%. Profitability may be calculated at the level of a group of related companies, and the legislation provides for a number of subjective and objective exemptions. In 2025 the Group does not expect any significant charges in this respect.

In the comparative period ended December 31, 2024 the PGE Group did not incur any significant charges in this respect.

Global minimum top-up tax

On January 1, 2025, the provisions of the Act of November 6, 2024 on the top-up taxation of constituent entities of multinational and domestic groups entered into force. This act implements into national law the provisions of Council Directive (EU) 2022/2523 of December 14, 2022 on ensuring a global minimum level of taxation for multinational enterprise groups and large-scale domestic groups in the European Union (known as Pillar 2). In the event of an effective tax rate of less than 15% in a given jurisdiction, a global or national top-up tax will apply. The provisions are effective from 2025, with the option of applying them retrospectively for the 2024 tax year. Based on the simplifications and exemptions provided for in the above-mentioned Act, which may be applied in the initial years of the regulation's application, the PGE CG will be able to benefit from an exemption from the calculation and payment of the domestic top-up tax until and including 2028.

VAT split payment mechanism, obligation to make payments to accounts notified to tax offices

The Group uses funds received from counterparties in VAT accounts to pay its liabilities that contain VAT. The amount of funds held in these VAT accounts at a given date depends mainly on the number of the PGE CG's counterparties that decide to use this mechanism and on the relation between the payment dates of receivables and payables. As at September 30, 2025, the balance of funds held in VAT accounts amounted to PLN 271 million.

Reporting of tax schemes (MDR)

New legal regulations have been in force since 2019, introducing mandatory reporting of tax schemes (MDR – Mandatory Disclosure Rules). As a general rule, a tax scheme should be understood as an arrangement

where obtaining a tax advantage is the main or one of the main benefits. In addition, arrangements with socalled special or other special identifying characteristics defined in the rules are designated as a tax scheme. The reporting obligation is extended to three types of entities: promoters, facilitators and beneficiaries. MDR regulations are complex and imprecise in many areas, which causes doubts with respect to their interpretation and practical application.

Excise duty

Due to the incorrect transposition of EU regulations into the Polish legal system, proceedings were initiated at PGE GiEK S.A. in 2009 to recover unduly paid excise duty for the period from January 2006 to February 2009. The irregularity concerned the taxation of electricity at the first stage of its sale – i.e. by producers – whereas the tax should have been levied on sales to so-called final consumers.

In reviewing the company's complaints regarding restitution claims against tax authority decisions refusing to recognise the overpayment of excise duty, administrative courts ruled that the company had not borne the economic burden of the unduly paid excise tax (which, under the resolution of the Supreme Administrative Court (NSA) of June 22, 2011, ref. I GPS 1/11, precludes the possibility of obtaining a tax refund). According to the NSA, the claims demonstrated by the company – particularly through economic analyses – are of a compensatory nature and, as such, may only be pursued before civil courts. As a result, PGE GiEK S.A. decided to withdraw from restitution-related administrative proceedings. The matter is currently being pursued through civil litigation. On January 10, 2020, the District Court in Warsaw issued a ruling in the case brought by PGE GiEK S.A. against the State Treasury – Minister of Finance. The court dismissed the claim. On February 3, 2020, the company filed an appeal against the first-instance judgment with the Court of Appeal in Warsaw. The hearing took place on December 2, 2020, after which, on December 17, 2020, the Court of Appeal in Warsaw dismissed the appeal filed by PGE GiEK S.A. On April 23, 2021, PGE GiEK S.A. submitted a cassation complaint to the Supreme Court. On May 20, 2021, PGE GiEK S.A. received the response from the General Counsel to the Republic of Poland regarding the cassation complaint filed by the company.

Due to significant uncertainty regarding the final resolution of the matter, the Group has not recognised any effects related to potential compensation in the civil proceedings concerning the unduly paid excise tax in its financial statements.

Property tax

Property tax constitutes a significant burden for certain companies within the PGE Capital Group. The regulations governing property tax are unclear in some areas and give rise to numerous interpretative doubts. The tax authorities – namely, the commune head (wójt), mayor, or city president – frequently issue inconsistent tax interpretations in substantively similar matters. As a result, Group companies have been and may continue to be parties to proceedings concerning property tax. If the Group considers a settlement adjustment to be probable as a result of such proceedings, an appropriate provision is recognised. Following the Constitutional Tribunal's challenge to the constitutionality of the definition of a 'structure' (budowla), an amendment was made to the Act of January 12, 1991 on Local Taxes and Fees, introducing a revised definition of the taxable object. The legislative amendment did not have a material impact on the property tax burden of the PGE CG companies.

Uncertainty related to tax settlements

Regulations on value added tax, corporate income tax and social security charges are subject to frequent changes. These frequent changes result in a lack of appropriate points of reference, inconsistent interpretations and few established precedents that could be applied. The legislation in force also contains ambiguities that give rise to differences of opinion as to the legal interpretation of tax provisions, between state authorities as well as between state authorities and business enterprises.

Tax settlements and other areas of activity (e.g. customs or foreign exchange issues) may be the subject of inspections by the authorities, which are entitled to impose high penalties and fines, and any additional tax liabilities resulting from an inspection must be paid together with high interest. Consequently, tax risk in Poland is higher than in countries with more stable tax systems.

Amounts presented and disclosed in financial statements may change in the future as a result of a final decision of a tax audit authority.

Other aspects

The Tax Code includes the provisions of the General Anti-Abuse Rule (GAAR). The GAAR is designed to prevent the use of artificial legal structures created for the purpose of avoiding the payment of tax in Poland. The GAAR defines tax avoidance as an act done primarily for the purpose of obtaining a tax advantage which, under given circumstances, is contrary to the object and purpose of the provisions of the Tax Act. Under the GAAR, such an act does not result in achieving a tax benefit if the manner of acting was artificial. Any occurrence of unjustified splitting of operations, involvement of intermediary entities despite the lack of economic or business justification, elements that cancel or compensate each other and other actions with

effects similar to those previously mentioned, can be treated as an indication of the existence of artificial acts subject to the GAARs. The new regulations will require much more judgment in assessing tax consequences of individual transactions.

The GAAR clause should be applied to transactions carried out after its entry into force and to transactions which were carried out before the effective date of the GAAR clause, but for which benefits were or continue to be obtained after this effective date. The implementation of the aforementioned rules will enable the Polish tax audit authorities to challenge legal arrangements and agreements entered into by taxpayers, such as group restructuring and reorganisation.

The Group recognises and measures current and deferred tax assets or liabilities using the requirements of IAS 12 Income Taxes based on tax profit (loss), tax base, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates, taking into account an assessment of uncertainties related to tax settlements. When there is uncertainty about whether and to what extent the a authority will accept particular tax settlements of a transaction, the Group recognises these settlements, taking into account an assessment of uncertainty.

Significant events and events after the reporting period

The coal asset spin-off project

On May 9, 2024, by order of the Minister of State Assets, a dedicated team was appointed to oversee the spinoff of coal assets from State Treasury-owned companies in the energy sector. The team's responsibilities included:

  • analysing the conditions for the spin-off of coal assets from State Treasury-owned energy companies,
  • cooperating with State Treasury-owned energy companies in developing assumptions, directions, and methods for implementing the spin-off,
  • identifying the entities responsible for carrying out the spin-off and allocating tasks among them.

On July 9, 2025, the Ministry of State Assets announced the completion of the team's work and the decision to abandon the implementation of the National Energy Security Agency (NABE) project. The absence of planned actions aimed at consolidating coal assets within NABE results in coal-based generation units remaining within the structures of capital groups, including the PGE Group. This decision also takes into account the need to ensure the stability of the National Electricity System and socially acceptable energy supply costs.

Recognition of assets related to PGE GiEK S.A. in the financial statements

The values of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and results of the Coal Energy segment, presenting data of PGE GiEK S.A. and its subsidiaries, have been presented in Note 6.1 to these financial statements.

Regulatory changes

Support mechanisms for electricity consumers

Due to the crisis situation on the electricity market in 2022 and in the subsequent years, the legislator decided to adopt further legal regulations introducing solutions concerning electricity prices and electricity tariffing in 2023, 2024 and 2025.

With regard to regulations affecting price levels in 2024 and 2025, account should be taken of the Act of May 23, 2024 on the energy voucher and on the amendment of certain acts to limit the prices of electricity, natural gas and district heating, which regulates the rules for applying electricity prices from July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024. The Act imposed an obligation on electricity trading companies to submit an application for an amendment of the applicable tariff for 2024 within 7 days from the date of entry into force of the Act or upon request of the President of the Energy Regulatory Office. The amended tariff is effective from July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2025. By decision of June 28, 2024, the President of the Energy Regulatory Office approved an amendment to the electricity tariff of PGE Obrót S.A. for the period from July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2025. The approved electricity price for consumers in tariff group G, specifically tariff subgroup G11, is PLN 628/MWh. The Act also extended the application of the maximum electricity price mechanism. This price applied in the second half of 2024 and was set at PLN 500/MWh for household customers, and at PLN 693/MWh for local government units and public utility entities (including schools, hospitals, social welfare institutions), as well as for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises.

If the tariff approved by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office is higher than the capped price for household consumers, such consumers are billed at the maximum price of PLN 500/MWh. For applying the maximum price in settlements with consumers, trading companies are entitled to compensation equal to the difference between the tariff price or contract price effective from July 1, 2024, and the maximum price, in accordance with the principles set out in the Act.

Electricity consumers who have entered into dynamic pricing contracts are excluded from the application of the capped price mechanism.

In 2024, revenue from compensation amounted to PLN 3,792 million, and in the first half of 2025, PLN 736 million. The funds received by the sales companies were intended to compensate for the losses incurred due to the electricity price freeze.

The above amounts relating to compensation due are estimates determined based on the best information available to the PGE Capital Group as at the date of preparation of these financial statements.

On December 12, 2024 the Act amending the Act on extraordinary measures to limit electricity price levels and support for certain consumers in 2023 and 2024, as well as certain other acts, entered into force. The new legislation maintains the application of the electricity price cap at PLN 500/MWh for household consumers until September 30, 2025, and at PLN 693/MWh for local government units and public utility entities (including schools, hospitals, and social welfare institutions). At the same time, as of January 1, 2025, the price cap is no longer applicable to micro, small and medium-sized enterprises. In addition, the act introduced an obligation for electricity trading companies to submit, by April 30, 2025, an application to amend the electricity tariff applicable until December 31, 2025. This could result in a reduction in the electricity tariff price during certain months of 2025.

The provisions of the Act of April 23, 2025 amending the Act on special solutions for the protection of electricity consumers in 2023 and 2024 in connection with the situation on the electricity market, which entered into force on April 30, 2025, the deadline for submitting applications for tariff changes was postponed to July 31, 2025, and the tariff is to apply from October 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025.

In June 2025, the Council of Ministers decided to extend the application of the maximum price at the level of PLN 500/MWh for household customers until December 31, 2025. Amendments to the Act of October 27, 2022 on extraordinary measures aimed at limiting the level of electricity prices and supporting certain consumers in the years 2023–2025 were introduced into the draft Act amending the Act on investments in wind power plants and certain other acts, in the form of amendments during the legislative process in the Sejm. On August 21, 2025, the President of the Republic of Poland vetoed the Act; consequently, the extension of the application of the maximum price from October 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025 did not enter into force. At the same time, the President submitted to the Sejm his own draft act extending the application of the maximum price for the last quarter of 2025, containing solutions identical to those proposed by the Council of Ministers. On August 29, 2025, a draft Act on the heating voucher and on the amendment of certain other acts was published on the website of the Government Legislation Centre, containing a provision imposing the obligation to apply the maximum price at the level of PLN 500/MWh to electricity household customers until December 31, 2025. Under the Act of September 12, 2025 on the heating voucher and on the amendment of certain acts to limit electricity prices, the application of the maximum price of PLN 500/MWh was extended until December 31, 2025. The Act entered into force on September 30, 2025.

At the same time, by a decision dated September 30, 2025 the President of the Energy Regulatory Office approved an amendment to the electricity tariff of PGE Obrót S.A. for the period from October 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025. The electricity price in tariff group G11 (24-hour) was approved at PLN 576/MWh.

Price Difference Payment Fund

As of December 1, 2022, the financial position of PGE CG was also affected by the provisions of the Extraordinary Measures Act 2023, which introduced the obligation for electricity generators and electricity trading companies to make monthly contributions to the account of the Price Difference Payment Fund (PDPF). The Fund contributions applied to electricity produced and sold between December 1, 2022 and December 31, 2023.

In connection with discrepancies concerning the interpretation of the provisions and the qualification of revenue from additional cash settlements, which should be taken into account in the calculation of contributions to the Fund, PGE S.A. applied to the President of the Energy Regulatory Office for an individual interpretation confirming the applied interpretation of the Act, as a result of which revenue from selected agreements should not be taken into account in the calculation of contributions to the Fund. The President of the Energy Regulatory Office did not share the Company's position. Disagreeing with the unfavourable decision of the President of the Energy Regulatory Office, PGE S.A. filed an appeal with the District Court in Warsaw. At the same time, the Company paid the contribution to the Fund in accordance with the decision of the President of the Energy Regulatory Office, while reserving the right to claim a refund of the amounts paid.

With regard to retail sales companies, there is also a difference in interpretation of the provisions of the Act between the companies of PGE Capital Group and the President of the Energy Regulatory Office. The divergence concerns the determination of the volume-weighted average market price of electricity sold, which was used to calculate the required contributions to the Fund. According to the President of the Energy Regulatory Office, the price should be determined on the basis of the value arising from the sales contract or the approved tariff in respect of prices and charges applicable to 2023. It should be emphasised that this was not the maximum price applied in settlements with eligible consumers. Applying the calculation method for Fund contributions as proposed by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office would result in the obligation to contribute based on hypothetical amounts which do not and will not constitute revenue for electricity

companies, as those values exceed the maximum prices applied in settlements with consumers. These are amounts that trading companies will never receive from customers. Members of the Association of Energy Trading (TOE) (including PGE Obrót S.A.) sent a letter to the President of the Energy Regulatory Office, in which, in addition to providing substantive arguments, they pointed out that a situation in which the interpretation of the Act is changed by way of explanatory guidance is non-transparent and discriminatory. Furthermore, the President of the Energy Regulatory Office also argues that entities obliged to pay the levy to the Fund should include, in the revenue determined for the purpose of calculating the amount of the levy due, the compensation received for applying maximum prices in settlements with customers. PGE Obrót S.A. and other retail supply companies contest this interpretation by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office as not directly arising from the provisions of the Act.

Companies were required to complete the final settlement of their PDPF contributions by April 30, 2025. According to statements made by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office, once the settlement reports have been approved, audits of the submitted reports and the amounts contributed are to be carried out in energy companies. The companies of the PGE Capital Group calculated the contributions due to the Fund in accordance with their own interpretation of the legislation, also relying on external legal opinions as well as the interpretation of the provisions provided by the Ministry of Climate and Environment and Zarządca Rozliczeń S.A.

On November 24, 2025 the President of the ERO began an audit at PGE Obrót S.A., asking at the same time to provide information and documents. The total duration of all inspections at a single large company within a calendar year may not exceed 48 working days. After the audit is completed, within 30 calendar days, the President of the ERO should take a position regarding the settlement of the contribution to the Fund.

The PGE Capital Group is confident in the correctness of its interpretation of the legislation and, in view of the potential dispute, has not recognised any provisions in these financial statements.

Acquisition of 50% of the shares in PGE PAK EJ S.A.

On October 15, 2025 the Company signed with ZE PAK S.A. a conditional preliminary agreement for the sale by ZE PAK S.A. of 50% of the shares in PGE PAK Energia Jądrowa S.A. to PGE S.A. The provisions of the preliminary agreement stipulated that the transaction would be effected upon fulfilment of a condition precedent, namely PGE S.A. obtaining an unconditional decision from the minister competent for energy raw materials regarding consent for PGE S.A. to achieve a dominant position in PGE PAK EJ S.A., consisting in PGE S.A. taking control over PGE PAK EJ S.A.

The condition was fulfilled and on October 17, 2025 the Company signed with ZE PAK S.A. the promised agreement for the sale by ZE PAK S.A. of 50% of the shares in PGE PAK EJ S.A. to PGE S.A.

On October 20, 2025 PGE S.A. was entered in the Shareholders Register as the sole owner of the shares in PGE PAK Energia Jądrowa S.A.

Implementation and financing of the Baltica 2 Project

On January 29, 2025, EWB2 and relevant entities from the PGE and Ørsted Capital Groups concluded a number of agreements related to the construction of the 1,498 MW offshore wind farm (Projekt Baltica 2). The conclusion of these agreements is connected with the adoption by the shareholders of EWB2 of a resolution on the Final Investment Decision (FID) initiating the construction phase of the Baltica 2 Project. The agreements concluded include, among others:

  • an amended shareholders' agreement, regulating in particular: corporate governance rules of the company during the construction phase, the rules for the functioning of the integrated project team during the construction phase, the parties' obligations in terms of financing and other types of support for the company in connection with the construction, restrictions on the transferability of shares, and consequences of material breach of obligations or a change of control over the shareholders;
  • agreements regulating the provision of construction management services by the relevant PGE Group entity (onshore) and by the relevant Ørsted Group entity (offshore);
  • agreements regulating the provision of operation and maintenance services for the wind farm under the Baltica 2 Project after commissioning, by the relevant PGE and Ørsted Group entities;
  • shareholder loan agreements, under which the shareholders will provide the company with debt financing (in addition to equity financing);
  • agreements regarding the sale of electricity generated by the offshore wind farm under the Baltica 2 Project to the shareholders of the company.

Simultaneously, PGE Baltica 6 sp. z o.o. entered into loan agreements along with corresponding security agreements to finance the construction of the Baltica 2 Project. The loan agreements were concluded with a consortium of 25 Polish and international financial institutions, including BGK, EIB, and EBRD.

Based on the loan agreements, the Group obtained project finance (non-recourse model) of approximately PLN 11.1 billion for the construction period and a further 22 years, and also had the option to use additional and reserve credit lines amounting to approximately PLN 1.5 billion.

The repayment of obligations incurred under the loan agreements will be based on the future cash flows generated by EWB2.

On January 29, 2025, the shareholders of EWB2 adopted a resolution on FID, commencing the construction phase of the Baltica 2 offshore wind farm. The first energy generation under the project is scheduled for the first half of 2027, with the commissioning of the entire project planned for the second half of 2027. The total project budget, including capital expenditures during both the development and construction phases, as well as operational costs during the construction phase, is estimated at approximately PLN 30 billion, with the shareholders responsible for providing financing in equal shares.

Signing of loan agreements with BGK under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan

Construction of offshore wind farms

On January 29, 2025, PGE S.A. signed a loan agreement with BGK for funds from the National Recovery and Resilience Plan as part of Investment G3.1.5. 'Construction of offshore wind farms' up to a limit of PLN 3,900 million. The loan funds will be used to finance or refinance eligible costs of the Baltica 2 offshore wind farm project by making an own contribution to the project.

The loan was made available for use from the date of fulfilment of the standard conditions precedent for bank financing specified in the Agreement. The loan is not secured on any assets of PGE or the PGE Capital Group.

The loan interest rate is calculated on the basis of a variable interest rate based on the relevant WIBOR 6M (reference rate) plus a margin, and its final repayment date has been set for December 20, 2036. The loan was granted on market terms and will not constitute public aid.

Support for the National Electricity System

On March 31, 2025, PGE S.A. signed two loan agreements with BGK from the funds of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP) for a total amount of approx. PLN 12.1 billion, including:

  • approx. PLN 9,521 million for financing projects implemented by PGE Dystrybucja S.A., and
  • approx. PLN 2,566 million for financing projects implemented by PGE Energetyka Kolejowa S.A.

The loans are granted from RRP funds under Investment G3.1.4, entitled 'Support for the national electricity system (Energy Support Fund)'.

The loan funds will be used exclusively to finance eligible expenditure related to the implementation of the following projects:

  • PGE Dystrybucja S.A.: increasing capacity to integrate renewable energy sources and improving energy supply security through the construction and modernisation of the power grid ('Distribution Project'),
  • PGE Energetyka Kolejowa S.A.: strengthening security, improving energy quality, and increasing the ability to connect more RES sources to the distribution grid supplying the Polish railway system and its accompanying ecosystem ('Railway Energy Project').

In accordance with the loan agreements, PGE S.A. fulfilled the conditions precedent standard for bank financings and concluded the required documentation with PGE Dystrybucja S.A. and PGE Energetyka Kolejowa S.A., including intragroup loan agreements. The loans from BGK are secured by declarations of voluntary submission to enforcement by the borrower in favour of the lender.

The funds under the loan agreements will be disbursed gradually, based on submitted drawdown requests, as the Distribution Project and the Railway Energy Project are implemented, but no later than December 20, 2036, and up to the amount of funds transferred to BGK for this purpose by the minister of climate and environment.

The loans bear interest at a fixed rate of 0.5% per annum, and repayment is scheduled in semi-annual instalments between 2034 and 2049 (with final repayment due on December 20, 2049).

On June 27, 2025, the Group received the first tranche of the loan under the Distribution Project in the amount of PLN 3,598 million.

In the Group's assessment, the loan is of a preferential nature, with a contractual interest rate below market interest rates. In accordance with IFRS 9, the loan was recognised at initial recognition at fair value in the amount of PLN 1,283 million, while the difference between the amount received and the fair value of the loan resulting from the application of an interest rate lower than market rates, in the amount of PLN 2,315 million,

was recognised in accordance with IAS 20 Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance as an asset grant and is presented under deferred income. In the statement of cash flows, the inflow from the loan was presented under cash flows from financing activities as proceeds from borrowings, in the amount of PLN 3,598 million.

Under the terms of the loan agreements, the financing amount may be increased, which will require the conclusion of relevant annexes to the Loan Agreements.

On October 2, 2025 annexes to both agreements concluded with BGK were signed, increasing the total amount of the loans by approximately PLN 1.1 billion to a total of approx. PLN 13.2 billion, including:

  • approx. PLN 884 million for financing projects implemented by PGE Dystrybucja S.A., and
  • approx. PLN 238 million for financing projects implemented by PGE Energetyka Kolejowa S.A.
