*The table presents the Group's indirect ownership interest in the subsidiaries.

1) The company is not consolidated as it does not conduct any business activity.

2) FitFabric Sp. z o.o. has been consolidated since 2018 based on the assumption that the Group exercises full (100%) control, as agreements have been executed with the minority shareholders committing them to sell their residual interests. On May 18th 2021, the parent signed an agreement with the minority shareholders of Fit Fabric Sp. z o.o., whereby it acquired 47.5% of the company's share capital, increasing its equity interest to 100%. 3) On June 17th 2021, the purchase of 100% of shares in YesIndeed Sp. z o.o. was effected, as a result of which Benefit Systems S.A. holds 100% of shares in the company.

4) On April 26th 2021, Benefit Systems S.A. acquired 80% of shares in Rehabilitacja i Ortopedia Sp. z o.o.

5) On September 21st 2020, agreements were signed obliging minority shareholders to dispose of the remaining shares, and therefore, as of that date, the company is consolidated on the assumption the Group holds a 97.2% equity interest. On April 1st 2021, the sale of 2% of shares in Multisport S.R.O. was effected, as a result of which Benefit Systems International Sp. z o.o. holds 98% of shares in the company.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Group's full-year consolidated financial statements for 2020.

The functional currency of the parent and the presentation currency of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements is the Polish złoty, and all amounts are expressed in thousands of Polish złoty (unless indicated otherwise).

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Group will continue as a going concern in the foreseeable future. As at the date of authorisation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, no circumstances have been identified which would indicate any threat to the Group's or the Parent's ability to continue as a going concern.

6.2.2. Accounting policies

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies presented in the Group's most recent consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31st 2020, and in accordance with the policies applied in the same interim period of the previous year, except for the application of the practical expedient described in note 6.2.5.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except with respect to items measured at fair value, such as a liability arising from contingent payment for acquired shares.

6.2.3. New and amended standards applied by the Group as of January 1st 2021

No new standards and interpretations have been published since the date of issue of the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31st 2020, prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as endorsed by the European Union.

6.2.4. Uncertainty of estimates

When preparing these interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the Management Board of the parent is guided by its judgement in making numerous estimates and assumptions that affect the accounting policies applied and the disclosed amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual amounts may differ from the estimates prepared by the Management Board of the parent.

For information on estimates and assumptions which are material to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements, see the Group's full-year consolidated financial statements for 2020, as well as the following notes to these interim condensed consolidated financial statements: 6.6 Acquisitions and change in non-controlling interests, 6.7 Goodwill, 6.9 Leases, 6.21 Provisions and contingent liabilities, 6.22 Financial instruments, and 6.23.1 Credit risk.

6.2.5. Presentation adjustment and change of accounting policies

In the preparation of the full-year consolidated financial statements for 2020, the Group elected to early apply the practical expedient provided by the amendment to IFRS 16 in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The practical expedient gives the lessee the option not to assess whether a rent concession is a lease modification and to account for any change in lease payments resulting from the rent concession the same way it would account for the change if the change were not a lease modification. The practical expedient applies only to rent concessions occurring as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic and only under certain conditions.

The amendment does not affect lessors.

The amendment applies to annual periods beginning on or after June 1st 2020. The Group applied the amendment retrospectively, with no effect the balance of retained earnings as at January 1st 2020.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the first half of 2020 were prepared before approval by the European Union of the amendments to IFRS 16 enabling the practical expedient to be applied. The effect of the amendment on the comparative period would be PLN 7.3m on account of a decrease in cost of sales and lease liabilities, PLN 1.4m on account of higher income tax expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and lower deferred tax assets, and PLN 5.9m on account of an increase in net result and equity.

6.3. Significant events and transactions

COVID-19 pandemic

In the six months ended June 30th 2021, the Group's business was affected by the coronavirus pandemic, and in particular by the temporary government restrictions imposed in the Group's home markets on the operation of sports facilities. The Group's customers and card users used the option to suspend sport cards, and the Group did not charge membership fees. Since January 18th 2021, the parent has earned revenue from sales of services relating to active sport cards.

INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE BENEFIT SYSTEMS GROUP FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30TH 2021 The management of the Group and its subsidiaries took a number of measures to secure and support revenue streams and reduce operating costs. Managing the Group's liquidity is of the highest priority, and the steps taken by the Group include securing access to various sources of

financing, monitoring of debt repayments on an ongoing basis, reducing capital expenditure, using public aid instruments, and, where justified, extending payment deadlines and maintaining safe levels of the net debt and liquidity ratios. As at the end of June 2021, the number of active sport cards was 548.1 thousand (up +15.3% on the end of 2020) in the Poland segment, while in the foreign markets the number of sport cards which were active in June 2021 was 249.9 thousand (down 1.5% on the end of 2020).

The sports facilities in all markets where the Group operates have been gradually resuming operations since February 2021. Poland was the last market where sports facilities resumed operations (on May 28th 2021).

As at June 30th 2021, the Group held PLN 198.4m of available funds in bank accounts and had access to PLN 125.5m of available and undrawn overdraft facilities.

In the opinion of the Group, the COVID-19 pandemic has not significantly affected the long-term prospects of the market's potential and the factors supporting the sale of sport cards.

The Group is expanding its offering of online products (such as sports, recreational and health exercises online, Yes2Move online training platform and online shop, the new MultiLife card) and additional services (advice, diets, urban bicycles, special holiday offers), and is continuing to develop the partnership network, which is of strategic importance to the Group. In addition, optimisation measures were taken with a focus on: (i) new customer retention processes and sales of services, implementation of subscription contracts better suited to consumer preferences, (ii) implementation of a new management structure and centralisation of functions across all networks (procurement, administration, back office), and (iii) implementation of restructuring plans at sports clubs with the least potential.

Execution of an annex to an agreement with BNP Paribas

On February 19th 2021, the parent signed an annex to the multi-purpose credit facility agreement with BNP Paribas Bank Polska S.A., extending the facility availability period until February 19th 2023. The facility limit was set at PLN 30m and as at the date of this report its full amount was available for drawdown.

Execution of an agreement with the minority shareholders of Fit Fabric Sp. z o.o.

On May 18th 2021, the parent signed an agreement with the minority shareholders of Fit Fabric Sp. z o.o. and made a payment of PLN 5.1m whereby it acquired 47.5% of the company's share capital, thus increasing its equity interest to 100%. The deferred portion of consideration of PLN 7.5m, payable in two instalments in the second half of 2021, was disclosed as other current financial liabilities.

On May 19th 2021, the Management Board of the parent was notified that on May 7th 2021 the District Court for the Capital City of Warsaw issued a decision to dismiss the parent's application for the registration of amendments to its Articles of Association in connection with a reduction of the share capital of the parent through the cancellation of treasury shares, based on resolutions passed by the Annual General Meeting on June 10th 2020.

On May 19th 2021, the Management Board of the parent was notified that on May 7th 2021 the District Court for the Capital City of Warsaw issued a decision to register amendments to the parent's Articles of Association adopted by its Extraordinary General Meeting on February 3rd 2021, concerning a change to the conditional share capital of the parent for the purpose of

granting the right to acquire E and G Series shares to the holders of subscription warrants under the 2021–2025 Incentive Scheme.

Changes on the Management Board of the parent

In the period from January 1st to June 30th 2021 the following changes occurred in the composition of the parent's Management Board:

On May 19th 2021, the Supervisory Board of the parent removed, with effect from the end of May 19th 2021, all existing members of the Management Board and appointed, with effect from May 20th 2021, the following persons to serve as members of the parent's Management Board for another four-year joint term of office:

    1. Emilia Rogalewicz,
    1. Bartosz Józefiak,
    1. Adam Radzki,
    1. Wojciech Szwarc,

On June 22nd 2021, Adam Radzki resigned as Member of the parent's Management Board with effect from June 23rd 2021.

Execution of agreements with Santander Bank Polska

On May 27th 2021, the PLN 45m multi-purpose and multi-currency credit facility agreement of July 18th 2012 between the parent and Santander Bank Polska was terminated. On May 28th 2021, the parent and Santander Bank Polska executed a PLN 22.5m working capital facility agreement. The facility will be available until September 30th 2021 and may be used to finance day-to-day operations. The facility repayment date is May 31st 2023.

On May 28th 2021, an annex to a bank guarantee facility agreement was executed, whereby the facility limit was increased from PLN 60m to PLN 65m.

Also on May 28th 2021, an annex to the guarantee facility agreement was executed. Pursuant to the annex, the parent was granted an overdraft facility of up to PLN 45m, and the guarantee limit was raised from PLN 5m to PLN 10m, with the proviso that the aggregate amount of drawdowns under the overdraft facility and the guarantee facility based on the agreement may not exceed PLN 50m. The facility repayment date is May 31st 2023.

Acquisition of shares in YesIndeed Sp. z o.o.

On June 17th 2021, a share purchase agreement was signed under which the parent purchased 100% of shares in YesIndeed Sp. z o.o., a company providing staff activation services in the B2B model. For details of the transaction and information on recognition the acquisition in the financial statements, see Note 6.6.1.

Appropriation of the parent's net loss for 2020

On June 29th 2021, the parent's Annual General Meeting passed a resolution to cover the net loss of PLN 81.7m for the financial year 2020 from future earnings.

Extension of deadline for closing of antitrust proceedings

On May 31st 2021, the Management Board of the parent received a decision of the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection ("UOKiK"), whereby the antitrust proceedings are expected to be closed on October 29th 2021.

For detailed information on the proceedings, see Note 6.21 to this report.

6.4. Seasonality of operations

The industry in which the Group operates is subject to seasonal variation. In the third quarter of the calendar year, the activity of holders of sport cards and vouchers tends to be lower than in the first, second and fourth quarters of the year, which affects revenue and profitability of the sport card business and the operation of fitness clubs. On the other hand, seasonality in the Cafeterias segment is reflected in an increase in turnover in the last month of the year due to, among other things, the Christmas period.

In the first half of 2021, the seasonality patterns observed to date could change as a result of the coronavirus pandemic and the temporary closure of fitness clubs and other sports facilities.

6.5. Operating segments

The Group presents segment information in accordance with IFRS 8 Operating Segments for the current reporting period and the comparative period.

The Group presents results by segments reflecting its long-term investment strategy and the business management model, taking into account the nature of its business. The Group presents the following segments:

    1. Poland
    1. Foreign Markets
    1. Cafeterias

The Group generates income and expenses from the above business lines which are reviewed regularly by the operating decision makers and used to make decisions on resources allocated to each segment and to assess the segments' results.

The Group has separate financial information available for each of the segments.

The Group applies the same accounting policies for all operating segments. The Group accounts for inter-segment transactions on an arm's-length basis.

The segment's performance is assessed based on operating profit or loss and EBITDA (which is not a measure applied under international accounting standards) defined by the Group as operating profit before depreciation and amortisation. In addition, the Group allocates to the operating segments interest on lease liabilities and share in the results of equity-accounted companies whose business is similar to that of a given segment.

Reconciliation of the segments' results to the Group's total results in the six months ended June 30th 2021 and in the comparative period is presented below.

Revenue disclosed in the consolidated statement of profit or loss does not differ from revenue presented for the operating segments, except for unallocated revenue and consolidation eliminations on inter-segment transactions. As of 2020, the segment data is presented down to the level of operating profit as financing decisions are made from the perspective of the Group as a whole.

6.6. Acquisitions and change in non-controlling interests

6.6.1. Acquisitions in the six months ended June 30th 2021

On June 17th 2021, Benefit Systems S.A. signed an agreement to purchase 100% of shares in YesIndeed Sp. z o.o. for PLN 10.7m. The purchase price consists of PLN 8m, payable upon execution of the agreement, and two deferred payments totalling PLN 2.7m, which will be made subject to the achievement of assumed business objectives by the purchased company.

By the date of these consolidated financial statements, the process of fair value measurement of the acquired assets and liabilities had not been completed. The fair value will be conclusively determined within 12 months of the acquisition date. The provisional amounts of identified assets and liabilities of the acquired business, recognised in the consolidated financial statements, are as follows:

June 17th 2021
Purchase price (cash) 10,652
Net assets acquired:
Intangible assets 4,803
Property, plant and equipment 0
Inventories 178
Trade and other receivables 1,466
Other assets 0
Cash 51
Trade and other payables (2,260)

Total net assets 4,238
Goodwill 6,414

YesIndeed Sp. z o.o. specialises in the development of comprehensive gamification systems based on the SaaS (software as a service) model , such as the WannaBuy cafeteria system, combining well-being solutions and elements of gamification. Investment in gamification expands the Group's offering to include modern solutions and know-how which are a response to the needs of the Group's customers and fit with the Group's long-term strategy for product development. The goodwill arising from accounting for the transaction results from synergies expected to be derived from merging the company's operations with the Group's business and represents the value of assets that could not be recognised separately in accordance with IAS 38 (mainly the established position on the gamification market, employees and their knowledge). The goodwill was allocated to cash generating units in the Poland segment.

6.6.2. Change in non-controlling interests

On April 1st 2021, the call option to purchase shares in Mulisport Benefit S.R.O. was exercised, following which the Group company Benefit Systems International Sp. z o.o. increased its equity interest in Mulisport Benefit S.R.O. by 2 pp, to 98%. The price paid for the shares was PLN 5.4m.

On May 18th 2021, the parent signed an agreement with the minority shareholders of Fit Fabric Sp. z o.o. and made a payment of PLN 5.1m whereby it acquired 47.5% of the company's share capital, thus increasing its equity interest to 100%. The deferred portion of consideration of PLN 7.5m, payable in two instalments in the second half of 2021, was disclosed as other current financial liabilities.

6.7. Goodwill

The changes in goodwill in the reporting periods are presented below.

June 30th 2021 December 31st
2020
Gross carrying amount
Balance at beginning of period 363,330 363,330
Acquisitions and business combinations 6,414 0
Gross carrying amount at end of period 369,744 363,330
Impairment losses
Accumulated impairment losses at end of period 0 0
Goodwill – net carrying amount at end of period 369,744 363,330

Goodwill is allocated to those cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from synergies of the business combination, provided that the cash-generating units are not larger than the operating segments. The Group identifies cash-generating units for sales of sport cards and operation of fitness clubs at country level, given the complementary nature of these two business lines. The cafeteria business has been defined as a separate cash-generating unit.

Goodwill was allocated in accordance with the policies described above to the following cashgenerating units:

June 30th 2021 December 31st
2020
Poland 310,305 303,891
Cafeterias 30,710 30,710
Czech Republic 28,340 28,340
Bulgaria 389 389

Total goodwill 369,744 363,330

As at the reporting date, no indications of impairment were identified for any of the cashgenerating units.

6.8. Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets

As at June 30th 2021, the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment was PLN 310.4m. The PLN 23.3m decrease in property, plant and equipment relative to the end of 2020 was mainly attributable to depreciation charges. Capital expenditure incurred in the first half of 2021, in the amount of PLN 11.2m, was mainly related to investments in the existing fitness clubs.

As at June 30th 2021, the carrying amount of intangible assets was PLN 86.1m, up by PLN 13.1m on December 31st 2020. The increase, offset by amortisation of PLN 7m, was mainly attributable to expenditure of PLN 15.3m on development, integration and optimisation of business and sales systems and online platforms for customers and on development of the ERP system, as well as to the purchase of software as part of the acquisition of YesIndeed Sp. z o.o. (the recognised value of the acquired software was estimated at PLN 4.8m).

The potential future cash outflows under these contracts were estimated at PLN 113,315 thousand as at June 30th 2021 (December 31st 2020: PLN 94,614 thousand).

-------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- ----------

Costs of short-term lease contracts and leases of low-value assets that are not recognised in the measurement of the lease liabilities and are expensed in the interim consolidated statement of profit or loss stood at PLN 264 thousand and PLN 475 thousand in the six months ended June 30th 2021 and June 30th 2020, respectively. The costs included mainly rental of advertising space (PLN 69 thousand and 58 thousand, respectively) and leases of assorted equipment for fitness clubs and offices (PLN 195 thousand and 418 thousand, respectively). In the six months ended June 30th 2021 and June 30th 2020, there were no variable lease payments.

In the first half of 2021, in connection with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Group renegotiated the terms of its rental contracts, which had an impact on the amount of lease liabilities. The Group applied the practical expedient introduced by an amendment to IFRS 16 in 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, whereby rent concessions resulting from the renegotiation of lease contracts are not treated as lease modification, and the effects of remeasurement of lease liabilities are recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

The practical expedient applies only to rent concessions occurring as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic and only if all of the following conditions are met:

• the change in lease payments results in revised consideration for the lease that is substantially the same as, or less than, the consideration for the lease immediately preceding the change;

• any reduction in lease payments affects only payments originally due on or before 30 June 2021 (for example, a rent concession would meet this condition if it results in reduced lease payments on or before 30 June 2021 and increased lease payments that extend beyond 30 June 2021); and

• there is no substantive change to other terms and conditions of the lease. As a result, the lease liability is remeasured at an unchanged interest rate and the effect of the remeasurement is recognised in the statement of profit or loss in the core operating activities as a reduction of the respective operating expenses depending on where the costs of the respective lease contract are allocated.

Each lease contract was assessed to determine whether the criteria for applying the practical expedient are met. The practical expedient was applied with respect to rent concessions under property rental contracts (sports clubs, offices). The amount of the lease liability remeasurement resulting from the negotiated concessions, recognised in operating profit or loss as a decrease in cost of sales in the six months ended June 30th 2021, is PLN 15,124 thousand. A similar remeasurement of liabilities due to negotiated rent concessions for the first half of 2020 would reduce the cost of sales by PLN 7,343 thousand (Note 6.2.5).

6.9.4. Subleases

The Group is an intermediate lessor with respect to fitness equipment leased to facilities which are the Group's partners, and with respect to office space. The sublease contracts were recognised as operating leases.

In the interim consolidated statement of profit or loss for the six months ended June 30th 2021, the Group recognised income from leases of fitness equipment under an operating sublease of PLN 3,460 thousand and income from sublease of office space of PLN 198 thousand. In the six months ended June 30th 2020, the amounts were PLN 1,774 thousand and PLN 45 thousand, respectively. These amounts include minimum fixed sublease payments only. In the reporting period, there were no contingent or other payments.

6.10. Loans

Loans account for the largest part of 'Loans and other financial assets' in the Group's statement of financial position. The table below presents the breakdown of the loans into long-term and short-term loans.

June 30th 2020 December 31st 2020
Long-term loans 25,620 26,842

6.11. Effective tax rate

In the six months ended June 30th 2021, the effective tax rate was 10%. The lower effective income tax expense in the first half of 2021 relative to the entire 2020 results mainly from a decrease in expenses which are permanently non-deductible, as well as a positive effect of the adjustment of taxable income of PLN 1.7m following the change, as of January 1st 2020, of the royalty rate under the licence agreement on the use of trademarks between the Company and its subsidiary Benefit IP Sp. z o.o. sp.k.

6.12. Share capital

In the first six months of 2021, there were no changes in the parent's share capital.

As at June 30th 2021, the parent's share capital was PLN 2,894 thousand (December 31st 2020: PLN 2,894 thousand) and was divided into 2,894,287 shares with a par value of PLN 1 per share. All the shares were paid up in full. All the shares confer equal rights to profit distributions and each share carries one vote at the General Meeting, with the proviso that the Company did not exercise voting rights attached to 118,053 treasury shares.

Share capital as at the reporting date is presented below.

Pending proceedings before administrative authorities

Antitrust proceedings against Benefit Systems S.A.

The antitrust proceedings against Benefit Systems S.A. (and other entities) were initiated by the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (the "President of UOKiK") on June 22nd 2018 in connection with the suspicion of certain activities potentially restricting competition on the domestic market of sports and recreational services packages or on the domestic market of fitness clubs or local fitness clubs (the "Proceedings").

On January 4th 2021, the Company received a decision of the President of UOKiK (the "Decision") concerning one of the three alleged breaches in respect of which the Procedure was initiated.

The President of UOKiK recognised the Company's participation in a market-sharing agreement between 2012 and 2017 as a practice restricting competition in the domestic market for the provision of fitness services in clubs, which constitutes an infringement of Article 6(1)(3) of the Act on Competition and Consumer Protection and Article 101(1)(c) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.

The President of UOKiK imposed fines on the parties to the Proceedings, including: on the Company in the amount of PLN 26,915,218.36 (taking into account the succession resulting from the merger of the Company with those of its subsidiaries which are also named in the Proceedings) and on its subsidiary (Yes to Move sp. z o.o., formerly: Fitness Academy sp. z o.o.) in the amount of PLN 1,748.74. Guided by, among other things, an analysis of well-known cases involving competition-restricting practices, where courts have often decided to significantly reduce fines imposed on businesses (in some cases by as much as 60-90%), and by the opinion of lawyers, the Company recognised a provision for the fine of PLN 10.8m in 2020. In the absence of any new circumstances affecting the case, the provision remained unchanged as at June 30th 2021.

The Company does not agree with the Decision and has therefore filed an appeal against the Decision within the period prescribed by law.

Pursuant to the decision of the President of UOKiK, as announced by the Company in Current Report No. 19/2021 of May 31st 2021, with respect to the two remaining allegations (allegation of entering in exclusivity arrangements with fitness clubs and allegation of concerted practices to restrict competition in the market for sports and recreation package services), the proceedings should be concluded on May 29th 2021 (the deadline has been postponed several times). So far, the President of UOKiK has not presented detailed grounds for the allegations.

6.22. Financial instruments

6.23. Risk arising from financial instruments

6.23.1. Credit risk

The Group's maximum exposure to credit risk is determined by the carrying amounts of financial assets and off-balance-sheet liabilities presented in the table below.

Loans 33,268 35,235
Trade receivables and other financial receivables 82,571 110,291

Contingent liabilities under guarantees and sureties issued 9,248 9,038
Total credit risk exposure 323,473 378,344

The Group continuously monitors clients' and creditors' outstanding payments by analysing the credit risk for individual items or for entire asset classes (arising from e.g. industry, region or structure of the customer base). In addition, as part of its credit risk management, the Group enters into transactions with trading partners with proven credibility.

In the table above, receivables do no include non-financial receivables, such as taxes and other benefits receivable, costs paid in advance, prepayments and advances, and the inventory value of purchased cafeteria codes.

Financial receivables and loans, by stage of impairment, are presented below.

The Group applies a 3-stage classification of financial assets for impairment purposes, described in section Impairment losses on financial assets of the accounting policies (item d) in the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Benefit Systems Group for 2020.
