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

1) On February 27th 2023, an increase in the share capital of Lunching.pl Sp. z o.o. was registered, following which the Parent's interest in the company rose to 79.89%; subsequently, on June 23rd 2023 the Parent exercised the option provided for in the share purchase agreement in the amount of PLN 2.1 million and increased its interest to 87.63% as at June 30th 2023. Since the date of acquisition of 73.97% of Lunching.pl shares (i.e., April 13th 2022), the company has been consolidated based on the assumption that the Group exercises full (100%) control in view of the options included in the share purchase agreement.

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

2) On March 31st 2023, the Parent acquired 100% of the shares in FIT 2 Sp. z o.o. and Sport Operator Sp. z o.o., which had taken over assets spun off from Calypso Fitness S.A., comprising 9 out of the 12 organised parts of business (fitness clubs) owned by the company.

3) On April 13th 2023, the Parent purchased 100% of shares in Saturn Fitness Group Sp. z o.o. (see Note 6.6).

4) On April 4th 2023, Benefit Systems S.A. acquired the residual 11.77% of shares in Total Fitness Sp. z o.o. for the amount of PLN 14 million, and thus its equity interest in the company rose to 100%. Since the date of acquisition of 88.23% of Total Fitness Sp. z o.o. shares (i.e., November 4th 2021), the company has been consolidated based on the assumption that the Group exercises full (100%) control in view of the options included in the share purchase agreement.

5) On May 23rd 2023, agreements were signed whereby loans advanced to the Czech companies Form Factory S.R.O. and Beck Box Club Praha S.R.O. by Benefit Systems S.A. and Benefit Systems International S.A. were converted into equity. As a result, the Group's equity interest in the Czech companies rose – to 98.54% in Form Factory S.R.O. and 98.49% in Beck Box Club Praha S.R.O. as at June 30th 2023. Conversion of the loans into equity is one of the stages of a project leading to the merger of the Czech companies.

The Group's voting interests in its subsidiaries are consistent with its respective interests in their share capital. The Parent and the consolidated entities were incorporated for indefinite time.

In the interim condensed consolidated financial statements prepared as at June 30th 2023, the interests in three associates were accounted for using the equity method.

6.3. Significant events and transactions

Steps taken with respect to associate Calypso Fitness S.A. ("CF")

As part of the review of the available courses of action towards the Company's investment in the associate Calypso Fitness S.A., described in more detail in Note 33 to the consolidated financial statements for 2022, on February 28th 2023 the CF shareholders, i.e., Benefit Systems S.A., Camaro Fundusz Inwestycyjny Zamknięty Aktywów Niepublicznych ("Camaro") and Cal Capital Sp. z o.o. ("CC"), executed an agreement in which they confirmed the key terms of the transaction the purpose of which is, among other things, to settle CF's liabilities towards its shareholders (the "Transaction").

As part of the first stage of the Transaction executed in the first quarter of 2023:

  • a. A demerger of CF was effected by spinning off 12 organised parts of business comprising fitness clubs to FIT 1 Sp. z o.o. (3 clubs), FIT 2 Sp. z o.o. (2 clubs) and Sport Operator Sp. z o.o. (7 clubs), controlled by, respectively, Benefit Systems S.A., CC and Camaro (CF shareholders).
  • b. The Parent acquired shares in FIT 2 Sp. z o.o. and Sport Operator Sp. z o.o., which had taken over CF's assets comprising 9 out of the 12 organised parts of CF's business (fitness clubs), located in the Gdańsk-Sopot-Gdynia agglomeration (6), Szczecin (4), Warsaw (1) and Wrocław (1). The title to the shares was transferred on March 31st 2023, i.e., the date of registration of the CF demerger, as agreed in the CF demerger plan of October 7th 2022. The remaining 3 out of the 12 organised parts of CF's business were contributed to FIT 1 Sp. z o.o., which is wholly owned by Benefit Systems S.A. The total consideration for the acquisition of the companies from CC and Camaro was PLN 29m, and was paid by: (i) transferring the Company's claims against CF of PLN 18m to the other CF shareholders, and (ii) making a payment of PLN 11m in cash to Camaro (see Note 6.6.1).
  • c. The share capital of CF was increased by converting Benefit Systems S.A.'s claims against CF of PLN 14.5m and claims held by Camaro and CC into shares in the increased share capital of CF, with the existing shareholding structure of CF retained, i.e., the Parent's interest in CF remained at 33.33%. The share capital increase at CF was registered by the registry court on April 26th 2023. As a result, in April 2023 the Parent cancelled CF's loan interest debt of PLN 10.3m.
  • d. Outside the demerger process described above, on March 20th 2023, CF assigned its rights and obligations under a lease contract for another fitness club located in the Gdańsk-Sopot-Gdynia agglomeration to Benefit Systems S.A. The assignment was settled against amounts owed by CF to the Parent totalling PLN 1.1m.
  • e. On March 31st 2023, the Parent advanced a loan to CF through conversion of trade (PLN 8.1m) and loan (PLN 9.7m) receivables (PLN 17.8m in aggregate), for which an impairment loss was recognised at 100% of their amount in previous years (see Note 6.10). The loan was secured by a pledge over shares in Instytut Rozwoju Fitness Sp. z o.o. held by CF.
  • f. In addition, on February 28th 2023, the Parent placed PLN 3m in a notarial deposit for the purpose of future acquisitions in the second stage of the Transaction (see Note 6.25).

Following completion of the steps described above, the Parent continues to hold debt claims against CF totalling PLN 17.8m (in respect of which impairment losses were recognised in previous reporting periods), which the Parent will be able to settle in potential subsequent acquisitions.

Execution of annexes to a financing agreement with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and Santander Bank Polska S.A.

On April 4th 2023, an annex was signed to the long-term financing agreement of April 1st 2022 with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and Santander Bank Polska S.A.

The annex extends the availability period for the unutilised part of the financing of PLN 115m until December 31st 2023.

Acquisition of Saturn Fitness Group Sp. z o.o.

On April 13th 2023, the Parent acquired 100% of shares in Saturn Fitness Group Sp. z o.o., as a result of which six fitness clubs located in Gdynia, Warsaw, Kraków, Łódź, Gorzów Wielkopolski and Chorzów were added to the Group's own clubs portfolio (see Note 6.6.1).

Distribution of Parent's net profit for 2022

On June 29th 2023, the Annual General Meeting of the Parent passed a resolution on distribution of the PLN 141.5m net profit earned for 2022 and decided to allocate PLN 120.3m to dividend payment and PLN 21.2m to statutory reserve funds (see Note 6.18.2).

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 fitness club passes 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 of sales in the Cafeterias segment is reflected in an increase in revenues in the last month of the year, partly attributable to the Christmas period.

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

The Group generates income and expenses from the above business lines which are reviewed regularly 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 intersegment 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 standard measure) 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 of profits (losses) of equity-accounted entities 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 2023 and in the comparative period is presented below.

There is no significant concentration of sales to one or more external customers. In the reporting period of the six months ended June 30th 2023, the Group did not identify any individual customer which would account for more than 10% of the Group's total revenue.

Revenue disclosed in the consolidated statement of profit or loss does not differ from revenue presented by the operating segments, except for consolidation eliminations on intersegment transactions.

Measurement of the operating segments' results used in the management calculations is consistent with the accounting policies applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

6.6. Acquisitions and change in non-controlling interests

6.6.1. Acquisitions in the six months ended June 30th 2023

Acquisition of organised parts of business comprising 12 fitness clubs from Calypso Fitness S.A.

As part of the review of the available courses of action towards the Company's investment in the associate Calypso Fitness S.A. ("CF") and as a result of the performance of the agreements of February 28th 2023 (see Note 6.3), the demerger of CF, agreed under the CF demerger plan prepared on October 7th 2022, was registered on March 31st 2023. The demerger was effected by spinning off 12 organised parts of CF's business (fitness clubs) to three companies: FIT 1 Sp. z o.o. (3 clubs based in Szczecin, Gdańsk and Gdynia), FIT 2 Sp. z o.o. (2 clubs based in Szczecin and Gdańsk) and Sport Operator Sp. z o.o. (7 clubs: 3 clubs based in Gdańsk, 2 clubs based in Warsaw, Szczecin – 2 clubs, and in Wrocław). As at the demerger date, the sole shareholders in the respective companies were CF shareholders: Benefit Systems S.A., Cal Capital Sp. z o.o. ("CC") and Camaro Fundusz Inwestycyjny Zamknięty Aktywów Niepublicznych ("Camaro"). Subsequently, on the same day, the Parent acquired all shares in FIT 2 Sp. z o.o. and Sport Operator Sp. z o.o. from CC and Camaro.

As a result of the operations described above, 12 fitness clubs were added to the Group's own club portfolio: in Gdańsk (5 clubs), Szczecin (4 clubs), Gdynia, Warsaw, and Wrocław.

The total purchase price of 12 organised parts of business from CF was PLN 29m. The price was settled by transferring Benefit Systems S.A.'s claims against CF Group companies of PLN 18m to CC and Camaro and making a cash payment of PLN 11m to Camaro.

As part of the provisional accounting for the acquisition, as at the acquisition date the Group allocated the excess of the purchase price over net assets to goodwill in the amount of PLN 37.4m.

The transaction described above was accounted for using the acquisition method in accordance with IFRS 3 Business Combinations as at the acquisition being the date of acquiring organised parts of business, i.e., March 31st 2023. Due to the commercial substance of the transaction, the way the acquired clubs are managed (the Parent's Fitness Branch acting as the operator) and the merger of FIT 1 Sp. z o.o., FIT 2 Sp. z o.o. and Sport Operator Sp. z o.o. with Benefit Systems S.A. planned for the second half of 2023, the transaction was accounted for jointly for all 12 organised parts of business.

The goodwill was allocated to cash generating units in the Poland segment.

As at the date of these consolidated financial statements, the purchase price allocation process had not been completed by the Group. The Group is currently reviewing, identifying and measuring the assets and liabilities acquired and therefore the goodwill recognised on the acquisition from CF of organised parts of business in the form of 12 fitness clubs may change within 12 months from the acquisition date.

Acquisition date of organised parts of business comprising 12 fitness clubs March 31st 2023
Purchase price as at the acquisition date, including:
cash 11,000
settlement of claims* 17,959
Purchase price as at the acquisition date 28,959
Net assets acquired:
Intangible assets – customer relations** 812
Right-of-use assets 49,120
Other property, plant and equipment 2,930
Other current assets 5,216
Cash 865
Non-current lease liabilities (39,095)
Current lease liabilities (10,025)
Other current liabilities ** (18,252)
Total net assets as at the acquisition date (8,429)
Goodwill as at the acquisition date 37,388

* The settlement of claims involved settlement of PLN 15.9m worth of trade receivables and PLN 2.1m worth of loans.

** As part of the remeasurement of provisional accounting for the acquisition, in the second quarter of 2023 customer-related intangible assets were recognised and the value of other current liabilities was adjusted by PLN (0.5)m, which resulted in a goodwill reduction of PLN 1.3m relative to the initial measurement.

Acquisition of shares in Saturn Fitness Group Sp. z o.o.

On April 13th 2023, an agreement was signed whereby the Parent purchased 100% of shares in Saturn Fitness Group Sp. z o.o. ("Saturn Fitness").

The total purchase price is PLN 26.1m and includes:

  • the price for the shares of PLN 0.5m, paid on the agreement date, which may be increased by PLN 1.2m, to be computed in accordance with the agreement (for instance if Saturn Fitness achieves the agreed revenue) and payable by the end of October 2023;
  • the amount of Saturn Fitness's cash liabilities of PLN 24.5m, resulting from the acquisition by Saturn Fitness on April 12th 2023 of organised parts of business in the form of 6 fitness clubs and the fitness branch head office.

As at the date of acquisition of control, according to the Company's best estimates of the fulfilment of the conditions set forth in the share purchase agreement, the fair value of the total purchase price is PLN 26.1m (the nominal value before discounting is PLN 26.2m).

As a result of the acquisition of Saturn Fitness, 6 fitness clubs were added to the Group's own club portfolio: in Gdynia, Warsaw, Kraków, Łódź, Gorzów Wielkopolski and Chorzów. The goodwill was allocated to cash generating units in the Poland segment.

As at the date of these consolidated financial statements, the purchase price allocation process had not been completed by the Group, in particular work was ongoing to transfer the company's accounting records and to review, identify and perform fair-value measurement of the assets and liabilities acquired. Therefore the goodwill recognised on acquisition of Saturn Fitness Group Sp. z o.o. may change within 12 months from the acquisition date.

6.6.2. Change in non-controlling interests

On May 23rd 2023, agreements were signed whereby loans advanced to the Czech companies Form Factory S.R.O. and Beck Box Club Praha S.R.O. by Benefit Systems S.A. and Benefit Systems International S.A. were converted into equity. As a result, the Group's equity interest in the Czech companies rose – from 97.20% to 98.54% in Form Factory S.R.O. and from

97.20% to 98.49% in Beck Box Club Praha S.R.O. as at June 30th 2023. Conversion of the loans into equity is one of the stages of a project leading to the merger of the Czech companies.

6.7. Goodwill

* In the first quarter of 2023, accounting for the acquisition of Lunching.pl Sp. z o.o. was completed. Adjustment to provisional goodwill measurement results from remeasurement of the liability under contractual options to purchase the remaining shares. The amount of the liability depends on revenue generated by Lunching.pl Sp. z o.o.

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.

Goodwill presented in the assets was allocated in accordance with the policies described above to the following cash-generating units:

Jun 30 2023 Dec 31 2022
Poland 478,909 431,895
Czech Republic 28,340 28,340
Bulgaria 389 389
Total goodwill 507,638 460,624

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 2023, the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment was PLN 286.1m. The PLN 8.3m decrease in property, plant and equipment relative to the end of 2022 was mainly attributable to a depreciation charge of PLN 35.7m and settlement of the PLN 14.1m investment in new clubs (PLN 6.4m of the investment amount was settled with the tenants). Capital expenditure of PLN 35.3m in the first half of 2023 was mainly related to investments in new and existing fitness clubs. In the first half of 2023, the Group acquired Saturn Fitness Group Sp. z o.o. and organised parts of business from Calypso Fitness S.A., which resulted in an increase in the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment by PLN 9.0m and PLN 2.9m, respectively (Note 6.6.1). An impairment loss of PLN 1.6m was recognised due to the

closure of Atmosfera MultiSport facility. In addition, property, plant and equipment with a carrying amount of PLN 2.6m was sold and foreign exchange losses of PLN 3.0m were recognised.

As at June 30th 2023, the carrying amount of intangible assets was PLN 138.0m, up by PLN 9.0m on December 31st 2022. The increase, offset by the recognition of a PLN 19.0m amortisation charge, results mainly from expenditure of PLN 16.1m on the development, integration and optimisation of business and sales systems and online platforms for customers. In the first half of 2023, the value of the acquired trademark of PLN 10.1m and customer relations of PLN 0.5m were recognised upon the acquisition of Saturn Fitness Group Sp. z o.o., and the value of customer relations estimated at PLN 0.8m was recognised upon the acquisition of organised parts of business from Calypso Fitness S.A. (Note 6.6.1).

The Group is a party to lease contracts for fitness clubs whose terms have not yet commenced; the contracts were not recognised in the measurement of lease liabilities. The potential future cash outflows under these contracts were estimated at PLN 65,827 thousand as at June 30th 2023 (December 31st 2022: PLN 70,769 thousand).

6.9.3. Lease amounts disclosed in the reporting period

Amounts disclosed in the six months ended June 30th 2023 and 2022 relating to the lease contracts recognised in the statement of financial position are presented below.

Jan 1–Jun

Application of the COVID-19 practical expedient (recognised in cost of sales) 0 4,955

Total (58,751) (78,727)
Amounts disclosed in the consolidated statement of cash flows
Lease payments (recognised in cash flow from financing activities) (97,853) (86,789)

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 709 thousand and PLN 264 thousand in the six months ended June 30th 2023 and June 30th 2022, respectively. The costs included mainly rental of advertising space (PLN 357 thousand and 69 thousand, respectively) and leases of assorted equipment for fitness clubs and offices (PLN 352 thousand and 195 thousand, respectively). In the six months ended June 30th 2023 and June 30th 2022, there were no variable lease payments.

In 2022, in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the Group renegotiated terms of the lease contracts, which impacted the amount of lease liabilities. The Group applied the practical expedient introduced by the amendment to IFRS 16, whereby rent concessions resulting from the renegotiation of lease contracts do not constitute lease modification, and the effects of remeasurement of lease liabilities are recognised in profit or loss for the period. The practical expedient could be applied with respect to rent payments originally due on or before June 30th 2022. 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 lease contracts (sports clubs, offices). In the first half of 2022, the amount of the remeasurement of the lease liability resulting from the negotiated concessions was recognised in the statement of profit and loss as a PLN 4,955 thousand decrease in cost of sales. The abovementioned amendment to IFRS 16 cannot be applied in 2023.

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 2023, the Group recognised income from leases of fitness equipment under an operating sublease of PLN 805 thousand and income from sublease of office space of PLN 539 thousand. In the six months ended June 30th 2022, the amounts were PLN 1,958 thousand and PLN 309

thousand, respectively. These amounts include minimum fixed sublease payments only. In the reporting period, there were no contingent or other payments.

6.10. Loans advanced

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.

Jun 30 2023 Dec 31 2022
Long-term loans 6,928 9,557
Short-term loans 3,527 4,240
Total loans 10,455 13,797

6.11. Effective tax rate

In the six months ended June 30th 2023, the Group's effective income tax rate was 18%, i.e., close to that paid by the Parent.

As at the end of June 2023, the current income tax liability was PLN 33.4m, up by PLN 23.9m on the end of 2022. The increase in the liability is attributable to the application by the Parent of the simplified method of CIT advance payment in 2023.

6.12. Equity

6.12.1. Share capital

In the first six months of 2023, there were no changes in the Parent's share capital.

As at June 30th 2023, the Parent's share capital amounted to PLN 2,934 thousand (December 31st 2022: PLN 2,934 thousand) and was divided into 2,933,542 shares with a par value of PLN 1 per share. All the shares were paid up in full. All shares participate equally in the distribution of dividends and each share confers the right to one vote at the General Meeting.

The share capital was as follows:

Jan 1–Jun 30 2023 Jan 1–Jun 30 2022
Shares issued and fully paid up:
Number of shares at beginning of period 2,933,542 2,933,542
Changes in the number of shares 0 0
Number of shares at end of period 2,933,542 2,933,542

6.12.2. Other components of equity

In the first half of 2023, a capital reserve of PLN 20.0m was created to finance loans to senior management, including members of the Parent's Management Board and its subsidiaries, to finance the purchase of shares in the Parent through the exercise of subscription warrants taken up under the share-based payment scheme described in more detail in Note 6.12.3 Share-based payment scheme.

6.12.3. Share-based payment scheme

Pursuant to resolutions of the General Meeting, Benefit Systems S.A. has in place an Incentive Scheme (the "Incentive Scheme") for senior and middle management of the Parent and for the Benefit Systems Group subsidiaries with which the Parent has entered into relevant agreements. Under the Scheme, eligible employees receive subscription warrants convertible into shares in the Parent.

On February 3rd 2021, the Supervisory Board resolved to establish an Incentive Scheme for 2021–2025 at the Parent. The purpose of the Incentive Scheme is to provide an incentive system that would promote employee productivity and loyalty, aimed at achieving strong financial performance and a long-term increase in the Parent's value.

In the 2021–2025 edition of the Incentive Scheme, its participants (up to 149 persons) will be able to acquire up to a total of 125,000 subscription warrants (which, upon conversion into shares, will represent 4.1% of the Parent's (post-issue) share capital), entitling them to subscribe for a specific number of shares in the Parent in five equal tranches.

The vesting of the warrants will depend on the satisfaction of certain loyalty and effectiveness criteria set out in the Incentive Scheme Rules, and the operation of the Incentive Scheme in a given year will be subject to the mandatory condition that a specified level of consolidated operating profit adjusted for the accounting cost of the Incentive Scheme is achieved for a given financial year.

Following achievement of 100% of the threshold for the condition relating to adjusted consolidated operating profit of the Group for 2022, 25,000 subscription warrants were granted to senior management (including the Management Board of the Parent) on March 1st 2023. The fair value of the subscription warrants granted to the employees was estimated as at the grant date using the Black-Scholes model.

Valuation of Incentive Scheme options – Black-Scholes model
Data Tranche for 2022
X (t) – share price at the valuation date (PLN) 836.00
P – option exercise price (PLN) 793.01
r – risk-free rate for PLN 6.54%
T – expiry date Dec 31 2025
t – current day (for pricing purposes) Mar 1 2023
Sigma – daily variability 30.00%

The total cost of the 2022 tranche granted on March 1st 2023 was estimated at PLN 6,278 thousand. The cost recognised in the Group's profit or loss in the reporting period was PLN 5,023 thousand. In 2022, the Group did not recognise the costs of the Scheme as the conditions for granting the 2021 tranche were not satisfied.

Note 4.7 to the Directors' Report on the Group's operations in the six months ended June 30th 2023 describes the terms and conditions of allotment of warrants not granted for 2021 in tranches for 2023 (up to 12,500 warrants) and for 2025 (up to 12,500 warrants).

6.18. Earnings per share and distribution of profit for 2022

6.18.1. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share are calculated as the quotient of the net profit attributable to owners of the Parent divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares (excluding treasury shares) outstanding during the period.

The calculation of diluted earnings per share takes into account the effect of options convertible into Parent shares that have been issued under the Group's incentive schemes.

The calculation of earnings per share 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 2023.

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

With respect to the two other alleged breaches (alleged concerted practices with respect to exclusive cooperation arrangements with fitness clubs, and alleged concerted practices to restrict competition in the market for sports and recreation package services), the proceedings were closed following the issue, on December 7th 2021, of a decision by the President of UOKiK ("Decision 2") under Art. 12.1 of the Act on Competition and Consumer Protection of February 16th 2007. By Decision 2, the President of UOKiK did not impose any fine on the Company and obliged the Company to take certain measures described in Note 34.1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group for 2022.

6.22. Financial instruments

Other financial liabilities disclosed in the Group's statement of financial position include mainly liabilities under the options to purchase minority interests in companies of the Foreign Markets segment. This item also includes liabilities under contingent and deferred consideration for acquired shares in subsidiaries. The individual liabilities are presented in the following tables:

Valuation of liabilities under the options to purchase minority interests in companies of the Foreign Markets segment as of June 30, 2023 was estimated at PLN 61.2 million (versus PLN 29.2 million as of December 31, 2022). The change in valuation is primarily due to the updating of discount rates, in particular by a change in the assessment of risks previously associated with the initial stage of operations of the companies in the Foreign Markets segment. The PLN 32 million increase in liabilities was recognized as a decrease in capital reserve (PLN 31.4 million) and an increase in financial expenses (PLN 0.6 million).

Settlement of liability arising from acquisition of shares in Total Fitness Sp. z o.o. is related to the acquisition by Benefit Systems S.A. on April 4, 2023 of the remaining 11.77% of shares in the company's share capital for PLN 14 million.

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.

Jun 30 2023 Dec 31 2022
Loans advanced 10,455 13,797
Trade receivables and other financial receivables 128,824 196,440

Contingent liabilities under guarantees and sureties issued 4,291 8,001
Total credit risk exposure 491,171 436,565

The Group continuously monitors any past due payments from its customers (trade receivables) or borrowers, including evaluating related credit risk on an individual basis or

reviewing financial asset groupings with shared credit risk characteristics. In addition, as part of its credit risk management, the Group enters into B2B transactions with trading partners with confirmed creditworthiness, as detailed in Note 2.3 Accounting Policies to the financial statements for 2022.

The aging structure and past due information for the Group's receivables as the most significant category of assets exposed to credit risk are presented below.

With respect to trade receivables, the Group is not exposed to credit risk of a single major trading partner or a group of partners with shared credit risk characteristics. Based on historical past due trends, past due receivables do not show a significant deterioration in quality as a majority of them fall within the range of less than one month and in the case of past due receivables from the other ranges appropriate collection measures have been taken.

As at June 30th 2023, the Group applied the following default rates for individual past due periods:

As at December 31st 2022, the amount of receivables from Calypso Fitness S.A. and its subsidiaries that were past due by more than 12 months and had not been written off was PLN 14,020 thousand. As at June 30th 2023, the receivables were settled under an agreement of February 28th 2023, as described in more detail in Note 6.3.

The Group recognises loss allowances in accordance with IFRS 9.

Financial assets are presented below by stage of impairment, which is determined in order to estimate expected credit losses.

The Group applies a three-stage classification of financial assets to estimate expected credit losses thereon, described under Financial assets in Note 2.3 Accounting policies to the Financial Statements for 2022.

In the opinion of the Management Board of the Parent, the above financial assets, which are not past due, can be considered as assets of good credit quality.

The credit risk of cash and cash equivalents, market securities and derivative financial instruments is considered immaterial due to the high credibility of the counterparties (primarily banks).

6.23.2. Currency risks

Most of the Parent's transactions are executed in PLN. Foreign exchange transactions are CZK- and EUR-denominated loans to consolidated entities of the Benefit Systems Group, which are eliminated on consolidation. Costs of leasing/renting office space and sports facilities are denominated in EUR and disclosed under lease liabilities, which amounted to EUR 212,937 thousand (PLN 947,634 thousand) as at June 30th 2023 and EUR 195,252 thousand (PLN 915,712 thousand) as at December 31st 2022.

Below is presented an analysis of the sensitivity of the financial result with respect to the Group's financial assets and liabilities as at the end of the reporting period and the PLN exchange rate movements vs EUR, assuming a 10% increase or decrease of the exchange rate with respect to the closing rate as at June 30th 2023:

Exchange
rate
Effect on profit/(loss):
movements Jun 30 2023 Dec 31 2022
Exchange rate increase 10% (94,345) (61,332)
Exchange rate decrease -10% 94,345 61,332

Exposure to currency risk changes during the year depending on the volume of transactions denominated in foreign currencies. However, the sensitivity analysis is considered to be representative of the Group's exposure to currency risk at the reporting date.

6.23.3. Liquidity risk

The Group manages the liquidity risk by monitoring payment dates and cash requirements for short-term payments (current transactions monitored weekly) and long-term cash requirements based on cash flow forecasts updated on monthly basis. The cash requirements are then compared against the available cash sources (in particular, the Group's borrowing capacity) and the amount of free cash placements.

INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF THE BENEFIT SYSTEMS GROUP FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30TH 2023 [TRANSLATION ONLY]

The table presents liabilities at amounts disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial position.

As at each reporting date, the Group also had available the following credit limits:

Jun 30 2023 Dec 31 2022
Credit limits granted – overdraft facility 45,000 45,000
Overdraft facility limit reduction upon utilisation of related guarantee facility (-) 0 (1,070)

Amounts drawn – overdraft facility (-) 0 0
Available credit limits – overdraft facility 45,000 43,930
Available credit limits – investment credit facility 115,000 115,000

As at June 30th 2023, the Group's current assets were PLN 535.6m And the amount of current liabilities was PLN 730.0m (including lease liabilities of PLN 184.2m). In the Group's opinion, the available and undrawn credit facility limits of PLN 45.0m provide a sufficient liquidity buffer. The PLN 45m overdraft facility limit expires in May 2026, and The PLN 115m investment credit facility limit expires in April 2027.

6.23.4. Interest rate risk

The management of interest rate risk focuses on minimising the fluctuations in interest cash flows from financial assets and liabilities bearing variable rates of interest. The Group is exposed to interest rate risk in connection with the following categories of variable-rate financial assets and liabilities:

  • loans
  • borrowings.

The analysis does not take into account cash in bank accounts as the asset's exposure to the currency risk is estimated as low, because interest rates on bank deposits are currently very low.

Sensitivity of net profit/(loss) as at June 30th 2023 to potential +/-1pp movements in the interest rates is presented below.

6.24. Non-compliance with debt covenants

In the six months ended June 30th 2023, the Group did not breach any of its debt covenants.

6.25. Events after the reporting date

Steps taken with respect to associate Calypso Fitness S.A. ("CF")

As a result of the agreement of February 28th 2023 (see Note 6.3), in the second stage of the Transaction on July 31st 2023:

  • a. A demerger of CF was effected by spinning off 3 organised parts of business comprising fitness clubs to FIT 1 Sp. z o.o. (1 club), FIT 3 Sp. z o.o. (1 club) and Concept Self Investment Sp. z o.o. (1 club), controlled, respectively, by Benefit Systems S.A., CC and Camaro (CF shareholders).
  • b. The Parent acquired shares in FIT 3 Sp. z o.o. and Concept Self Investment Sp. z o.o., to which CF's assets comprising 2 out of the 3 organised parts of CF's business (fitness clubs) located in Warsaw and Kraków were spun off. The title to the shares was transferred on July 31st 2023, i.e., the date of registration of the CF demerger agreed in the Calypso Fitness demerger plan of May 8th 2023. The remaining 1 out of the 3 organised parts of CF's business was contributed to FIT 1 Sp. z o.o., which is wholly owned by Benefit Systems S.A. The total purchase price of the 3 organised parts of business was PLN 4m and was paid by paying cash of PLN 3m to Camaro, placed on February 28th 2023 in a notarial deposit (see Note 6.3), while amount of PLN 1m is owed to CC.
