Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards

This separate financial statement has been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards and interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (IASB) approved by the EU under the relevant Regulation on the Application of International Accounting Standards (European Council 1606/2002), hereinafter referred to as UE IFRS.

UE IFRS comprise standards and interpretations endorsed by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), approved for use in the EU.

Standards and interpretations applied for the first time

In preparing its separate financial statement for 2019 the Company applied the same accounting standards as in its separate financial statement for 2018 with exception of the following new and amended standards and interpretations approved by the European Union and applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019:

Amendments to IFRS 9 – Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation - applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019

These amendments concern the accounting of prepayable financial assets with the so-called negative compensation. Such assets should be measured at amortized cost or fair value through other comprehensive income instead of at fair value through or loss. These amendments do not affect the accounting practices in force at the Company or its financial result.

Amendments to IAS 19 – Plan amendment, curtailment or settlement - applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019

These amendments affect amendment, curtailment or settlement of certain plans by specifying that it is now mandatory that the current service cost and the net interest for the period after the remeasurement are determined using the assumptions used for the remeasurement. These amendments do not have a significant effect upon the accounting practices in force at the Company or its financial result.

IFRS 16 - Leases, applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019

This financial statement marks the first application of IFRS 16 Leases, which superseded IAS 17 Leases. IFRS 16 sets forth rules concerning assessment, presentation and disclosure of lease agreements. The major change is to introduce a uniform model for lessee accounting, forgoing the distinction between financial and operating lease agreements. Under the new regulation all agreements which meet the definition of a lease agreement or which include aspects of such are treated in accordance with the erstwhile financial lease model. Accordingly, the new standard contributes to an increase in the value of non-financial assets and other financial liabilities in the statement of financial position, and to a decrease in operating expenditures along with an increase in financial expenditures in the profit and loss account. Regarding the statement of cash flows, a decrease in operating outflows and an increase in financial outflows can be observed.

The application of the new standard most significantly affects the presentation of fixed-term office space lease agreements, which, due to their economic content, had previously been classified as operating lease agreements in accordance with IAS 17. As a consequence, the Company had not previously recognized assets covered by these agreements in its financial statement. In 2019, in line with the new regulations, these agreements are treated as financial and subject to a uniform model of lessee accounting, requiring the Company to recognize its right to use the lease office space as an asset, along with liabilities which reflect the corresponding lease payments.

On the day of initial application of IFRS 16 the Company applied a retrospective approach to office space lease agreements scheduled to end later than 12 months after the aforementioned initial application date, recognizing the aggregate effect of applying the new standard on the initial application date without converting the relevant comparative data. The aggregate effect of applying the new standard, i.e. recognition of the corresponding assets and liabilities, did not result in a change in the initial balance of retained earnings (the value of newly recognized assets is equal to the value of the corresponding liabilities). Assets and liabilities arising from lease agreements were recognized as the current balance of other lease agreements adjusted by the lessee's marginal interest rate on the date of initial application of the new standard.

In the financial statement for the year ending on 31 December 2018, as well as in interim financial statements published throughout 2019, the perpetual usufruct of land purchased from third parties on 31 December 2018 was recognized as a distinct assets, initially estimated at purchase price and subsequently subject to gradual depreciation throughout the period for which this right had been granted. On 31 December 2019 the Company acquired perpetual usufruct of additional land plots, which, under IFRS 16, should be recognized as a lease. In order to avoid a situation where identical rights would be presented as two distinct categories of assets, depending on acquisition date, the Company decided to apply a uniform reporting policy in this financial statement: specifically, with regard to perpetual usufruct of land acquired on 31 December 2018 the decision was made to apply IFRS 16 Leases in the same manner as if the regulation had initially been applied on 1 January 2019. Thus, with regard to all aforementioned rights, the assets and liabilities arising from lease agreements were recognized as the current balance of other lease agreements adjusted by the lessee's marginal interest rate.

The Company has also begun to recognize subleasing of office space wherein a leased asset (master agreement) is subject to further leasing. With regard to such agreements the Company does not directly recognize the leased asset; instead, it recognizes a lease liability and the corresponding receivables under the relevant sublease agreement. If the subleasing agreement involves transferring (reinvoicing) expenses to another entity, the liability arising under the master agreement is equivalent to the receivables arising under the subleasing agreement, adjusted for the discount rate applicable to the master agreement. In such circumstances the liabilities related to the master agreement and the receivables related to the subleasing agreement, as well as the related financial expenses and revenues due to interest, are offset prior to being reported, as this form of presentation best reflects the nature of the agreement (according to Art. 32-33 of IAS 1 and Art. 42-50 of IAS 32 with regard to financial instruments). As a rule, offsetting assets and liabilities or revenues and expenses is forbidden unless it reflects the nature of the given transaction.

The application of new regulations embodied by IFRS 16, along with the abovementioned change in presentation of perpetual usufruct of land acquired on 31 December 2018 (including the consequent folding of this asset into the reported investment properties) has the following effect on the Company's financial statement for the period between 1 January and 31 December 2019:

4.05%

With regard to space lease agreements scheduled to end earlier than 12 months following the initial application date of IFRS 16, the Company has applied the practical expedient foreseen in section C10 item c) of the standard. According to this regulation, a lessee may elect not to apply the previously specified requirements to leases for which the lease term ends within 12 months of the date of initial application. Consequently, the Company accounts for those leases in the same way as short-term leases, recognizing the cost associated with those leases throughout the duration of the lease agreement. The costs associated with these agreements are presented in Note 3.

With regard to lease agreements classified as financial under IAS 17, on the date of initial application of IFRS 16 the balance sheet value of assets which represent the right to use the leased object, as well as the corresponding liabilities, correspond to the balance sheet value of such assets and liabilities on the day preceding the initial application date and evaluated in accordance with IAS 17. In 2019 all such agreements are subject to the provisions of IFRS 16.

The Company does not apply the provisions of IFRS 16 to short-term lease agreements and to agreements where the value of the leased asset is low, as permitted under Art. 5 of the new standard. In these cases, lease payments are recognized as costs using the straight-line method or another applicable method which best reflects the distribution of payments throughout the duration of the agreement.

As permitted under Art. 4 of IFRS 16, the Company does not apply the provisions of the new standards to intangibles.

Amendments to MSR 28 – Long-term Interests in Associates and Joint Ventures - applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019

The amendments concern recognition of long-term interests in an associate or joint venture that form part of the net investment in the associate or joint venture but to which the equity method is not applied. In line with the amended regulation, such interests should be recognized in accordance with the new IFRS 9 standard, particularly as concerns impairment. These amendments do not have a significant impact on the Company's accounting practices or its financial result.

Amendments to IFRS (2015-2017) adopted under the annual IFRS improvements cycle - applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019

These amendments concern four standards: IAS 12 Income taxes with regard to recognizing the income tax consequences of dividends, IAS 23 Borrowing costs with regard to modified assets readied for intended use or sale, IFRS 3 Business combinations with regard to acquisition of control of a business that is a joint operation, and IFRS 11 Joint arrangements with regard to lack of control of a participant over a joint arrangement. These amendments do not have a significant impact on the Company's accounting practices or its financial result.

IFRIC 23 – Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments - applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019

The interpretation clarifies the recognition and measurement procedures specified in IAS 12 Income Taxes when there are uncertainties in the amount of income tax payable (recoverable). An uncertainty over income tax treatment emerges when there is doubt whether the applied treatment will be accepted by taxation authorities. If the entity regards such uncertainties as significant, they should be reflected in the tax disclosures for the period to which the treatment applies, e.g. by recognizing an additional tax liability or applying a higher tax rate. Measurement of such uncertainties should be based either on the most likely amount or the expected value of the tax treatment. This interpretation does not have a significant impact on the Company's accounting practices or its financial result.

Standards published and approved by the EU which have not yet entered into force, and their effect on the Company's financial statement

The Board has carried out an assessment of the effect of new standards upon future financial statements of the Company. In approving this financial statement, the Company did not apply the following standards, amendments and interpretations which have been published and approved for use in the EU. but have not yet entered into force:

Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39 and IFRS 7 – Interest Rate Benchmark Reform - applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2020

Description of applicable accounting practices

Operating revenues and expenses

Revenues are defined as the gross receipts on any economic benefits from the reported period resulting from (ordinary) economic activities of the Company and leading to an increase in its equity other than from capital increases obtained through shareholder contributions.

The Company recognizes revenues by applying the so-called Five Step Model described in IFRS 15. Revenues only cover amounts received or receivable by the Company, equivalent to the transaction prices payable to the Company following (or during) discharge of its liability to transfer the contractually pledged goods or services (i.e. asset) to the client. The transaction price is defined as the remuneration which the Company expects to receive in return for transfer of the pledged goods or services, less the applicable value added tax.

With regard to licensing royalties associated with distribution of videogames, which constitute the Company's main source of revenues, these depend on the volume of sales carried out by each distributor throughout the reporting period. Consequently, for each product, the corresponding sales revenues can be recognized only after the Company has supplied all necessary materials enabling the finished game to be distributed, and the reported figures depend on sales reports periodically submitted by distributors.

In accordance with the principle of matching revenues and expenses, expenses associated with consumption of materials, goods and finished products are reported in the same period as their corresponding sales revenues or revenues from services which these assets are part of.

Financial revenues and expenses

Financial revenues consist mainly of interest on bank deposits of monetary assets, commissions and interest on loans granted, penalty interest on overdue receivables, liabilities, dissolved provisions associated with financial activities, revenues from sales of securities, gains from exchange rate differences, reversal of impairment of investment assets, credit/loan write-offs and gains from revaluation of derivatives.

Financial expenses consist mainly of interest on outstanding credits and loans, penalty interest on overdue liabilities, provisions set aside to cover certain or probable losses from financial operations, purchase value of any securities sold, commissions and handling charges, impairment of interest owed, short-term investment valuations, discounts, exchange rate differences and, in the case of lease agreements, any other payments except capital payments.

State subsidies

Subsidies are not recognized until there is a reasonable certainty that the Company will fulfill the necessary criteria and receive the subsidy. State subsidies predicated on the condition that the recipient purchases or produces certain fixed assets are recognized in the statement of financial position in the deferred revenues line item and charged to the financial result systematically throughout the anticipate economic life of such assets.

Current and deferred income tax

The reported revenue is subject to compulsory taxation, whether current or deferred. Current tax is calculated on the basis of taxable income in a given financial year. Tax gain (or loss) differs from net accounting gain (or loss) due to temporal differences in recognition of revenues and expenses for fiscal and accounting purposes, as well as due to permanent differences in handling certain revenues and expenses with regard to their fiscal and accounting effects, as appropriate. Tax burden is calculated on the basis of tax rates valid for a given financial year. Current tax on items included directly in the equity capital is reported in the equity statement, as opposed to the profit and loss account.

Deferred tax is calculated using the balance sheet method as the amount payable or receivable as a result of the difference between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities and their corresponding tax base amounts.

Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized in correspondence with taxable positive temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognized up to the amount of probable reduction in future tax gains by any recognized negative temporary differences. A tax asset or liability is not recognized if the underlying temporary difference is due to goodwill or prior inclusion of another asset or liability in a transaction which does not affect the company's taxable or accounting revenues.

Deferred income tax liabilities are applied to temporary tax differences resulting from investments in associates and joint ventures unless the Company is capable of controlling the moment of reversal of the temporary difference and the temporary difference is unlikely to reverse in the foreseeable future.

The value of the asset associated with deferred tax is subject to analysis for each balance sheet date. If the expected future tax gains are insufficient to cover the asset or part thereof, a write-down is recognized on the asset.

Deferred tax is calculated by applying rates which will be in force on the date the corresponding gain is realized or the liability becomes due. Deferred tax is reported in the profit and loss account unless it applies to assets included directly in the equity capital in which case it is also reported in the equity capital.

Value added tax

All revenues, expenses and assets are recorded following deduction of the applicable value added tax, except for:

  • cases where the value added tax paid when purchasing assets or services cannot be recovered from tax authorities, in which case it is reported as part of the purchase cost of a given asset or as an expense,
  • receivables and liabilities reported as inclusive of value added tax.

The net amount of value added tax recoverable from or payable to tax authorities is reported in the statement as part of the Company's receivables or liabilities.

Fixed assets

Fixed assets are recognized on the basis of their cost (purchase price or production cost) following deduction of depreciation and impairment for each reporting period. Borrowing costs associated directly with the purchase or construction of assets which require a long time to become usable or resalable are added to the cost of construction of such fixed assets up until the beginning of their useful economic life. Revenues from short-term investment of borrowings related to construction of fixed assets are deducted from the borrowing costs following capitalization. Other borrowing costs are reported as expenses in the period during which they were incurred.

Depreciation is calculated for all fixed assets except land holdings and fixed assets under construction, throughout their expected useful economic life, using the straight-line method.

The expected useful life for individual categories of tangible assets is as follows:

Category Useful life
Buildings and structures 5 – 25 years
Machinery and equipment 2 – 10 years
Vehicles 5 years
Other fixed assets 2 – 10 years

Profits or losses on sales/disposal or cessation of use of fixed assets are defined as the difference between their sales revenues and net value, and are reported in the profit and loss account.

Intangibles - expenditures on development projects

The Company reports expenses associated with development of videogames as "Expenditures on development projects". Videogame development expenses incurred prior to the commencement of sales or application of new solutions are recognized as "Development projects in progress". Once development has completed and the relevant costs are recognized, said expenses are transferred to the "Development projects completed" line item. In the case of projects for which a reliable estimate of sales volume and budget can be provided, the Company recognizes depreciation on the basis of economic benefits associated with the expected sales volume. In all other cases, the straight-line method is applied instead. Depreciation of development expenditures is presented in the profit and loss account as the cost of products and services sold.

Other intangibles

Intangibles are recognized according to their historical cost of purchase or production, following deduction of depreciation and impairment costs. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method. Costs of research and development activities are not subject to activation and are reported in the profit and loss account for the period when they were incurred.

The expected useful life for individual classes of intangible assets is as follows:

Category Useful life
Patents and licenses 2 – 15 years
Computer software 2 – 10 years

In its financial statement, the Company regards The Witcher trademark and the CD PROJEKT brand name as its intangible assets. The value of trademarks is calculated using the Relief from Royalty method, which is one of the basic valuation methods for trademarks and other intangible assets in the context of business combinations, in line with IFRS 3 Business combinations. Trademark valuation is subject to yearly impairment tests.

Goodwill

Goodwill is defined as the positive difference between the cost of establishing a business combination (also known as acquisition or takeover cost) and the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.

Goodwill may be created either as a result of acquisition of a corporate entity, or through acquisition of an enterprise, i.e. an organized part of an entity, which is defined as a set of assets and corresponding liabilities, including contingent liabilities.

Combinations with external entities, except for combinations under common control, are accounted for using the purchase method according to which the takeover cost, calculated as the fair value of payment incurred for acquiring control over a corporate entity or part thereof (i.e. an enterprise), is allocated to identifiable assets and liabilities of the entity being acquired. Any surplus resulting from this allocation procedure is assumed to represent goodwill. Any negative difference between the acquisition cost and the net of the acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed is treated as revenue and disaggregated in the profit and loss account as other operating revenues.

Business combinations under common control

Legal mergers between the parent company and a subsidiary thereof are recognized on the basis of the subsidiary's financial data disclosed in the parent company's consolidated financial statement; these figures include changes which occur at the parent company as a result of merging with the subsidiary. The reported financial result and financial position of the subsidiary are determined prospectively from the merger date.

Impairment of non-financial assets

For each balance sheet date the Company performs an inventory of the net value of all of its fixed assets in order to determine whether impairment of assets may have occurred.

If asset impairment is suspected, the recoverable amount of each asset is calculated to determine the potential write-down. If a given asset does not produce a cash flow that is substantially separate from cash flows produced by other assets, analysis is performed for the whole group of cash producing assets to which the given asset belongs.

For intangible assets with an indefinite useful economic life this impairment test is performed on a yearly basis and, additionally, whenever impairment is suspected.

Recoverable amount is defined as the greater of the following two values: fair value of the asset less the cost of sale, and the asset's value in use. The latter value is defined as the balance of expected future cash flows produced by the asset, discounted using discount rates which acknowledge the market value of the relevant currency and a risk factor specific to the given asset.

If the recoverable amount of a given asset is lower than its net book value, the book value is lowered to match the recoverable amount. The loss resulting from this operation is accounted as cost in the period during which it was incurred, unless the asset had previously been carried at a revalued amount in which case the impairment is reflected by adjusting the revalued amount.

At the moment of reversal of asset impairment, the net value of the asset (or group of assets) is increased to match the newly estimated recoverable amount; it cannot, however, exceed the net value of the asset which would have been reported had the impairment not been recognized during previous fiscal years. Reversal of asset impairment is recognized as revenues unless the asset had previously been carried at a revalued amount in which case the impairment reversal is reflected by adjusting the revaluation capital.

Investment properties

Investment properties are defined as all properties held for the expected revenues from rent, increase in value, or both. As such, cash flows produced by investment properties are largely independent from those produced by other assets belonging to the Company.

Investment properties are estimated using the purchase cost method.

Perpetual usufruct of land

Perpetual usufruct may apply to land owned by the State Treasury, local authorities, or combinations thereof. Perpetual usufruct is a special type of property law which entitles physical or legal entities to use a given plot of land on an exclusive basis. Perpetual usufruct is fully transferable and usually granted for a period of 99 years, although in exceptional cases shorter grants (of at least 40 years) are permitted when the economic rationale for establishing the usufruct does not justify a longer grant.

In the financial statement for the year ending on 31 December 2018, as well as in interim financial statements published throughout 2019, the perpetual usufruct of land purchased from third parties on 31 December 2018 was recognized as a distinct asset, initially estimated at purchase price and subsequently subject to gradual depreciation throughout the period for which this right had been granted. On 31 December 2019 the Company acquired perpetual usufruct of additional land plots, which, under IFRS 16, should be recognized as a lease. In order to avoid a situation where identical rights would be presented as two distinct categories of assets, depending on acquisition date, the Company decided to apply a uniform reporting policy in this financial statement: specifically, with regard to perpetual usufruct of land acquired on 31 December 2018 the decision was made to apply IFRS 16 Leases in the same manner as if the regulation had initially been applied on 1 January 2019.

In addition to the above, the decision to no longer recognize perpetual usufruct of land as a distinct asset and instead aggregate it with leases means that it such rights should now be reported in accordance with their intended use. Accordingly, the Company also decided to also fold this asset into the reported investment properties. The effect of application of IFRS 16 and the change in the Company's approach to reporting perpetual usufruct of land acquired prior to 1 January 2019 upon this financial statement is discussed in the section titled "Standards and interpretations applied for the first time".

Lease agreements

Given the fact that this financial statement marks the initial application of the new edition of IFRS 16 Leases, the corresponding accounting practices in force at the Company are described in the section titled "Standards and interpretations applied for the first time".

Investments in subsidiaries

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted on their effective date and at cost. Assessment of such investments for a given balance sheet date is performed on the basis of initial cost less write-downs associated with impairment of assets, if any.

Financial assets

On initial recognition the Company assigns each of its financial assets into one of four categories, depending on the Company's business model related to management of financial assets and the specific nature of contractual cash flows associated therewith:

  • assets classified at amortized cost,
  • assets classified at fair value reported in other comprehensive income (FVOCI),
  • assets classified at fair value through profit and loss,
  • financial hedges.

Each financial asset is assigned to one of the above categories on initial recognition. This assignment may change only if the associated business model changes. Essential classes of business models are as follows: assets held to collect contractual cash flows; assets held to collect contractual cash flows and potentially sell the asset; assets held for reasons other than those listed

previously (as a rule, this is construed as holding assets for trading). The Company has adopted a rule stating that the sale of a financial asset prior to its maturity does not, in itself, cause the underlying business model to shift from holding assets to collect contractual cash flows to holding assets to collect contractual cash flows and potentially sell the assets or to holding assets for other purposes.

As the Company does not engage in hedge accounting, the corresponding IFRS 9 provisions do not apply to the Company's activities.

Credit risk associated with assets which constitute financial instruments is estimated by the Company on the basis of the expected credit loss (ECL) model. The basic method for determining loss allowances in the ECL model is a procedure under which the Company monitors changes in credit risk associated with each financial asset since its initial recognition, and assigns each financial asset to one of three stages (stage 1 – performing; stage 2 – under-performing; stage 3 – impaired). This method is applied to financial assets held at amortized cost other than trade receivables.

Financial liabilities

A financial liability is defined as any liability which:

  • is associated with a contractual obligation to transfer monetary or other financial assets to another entity, or exchange financial assets or liabilities with another entity on potentially disadvantageous terms;
  • is associated with a contract that will or may be settled in the entity's own equity instruments and is a non-derivative for which the entity is or may be obliged to deliver a variable number of the entity's own equity instruments; or a derivative that will or may be settled other than by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the entity's own equity instruments. For this purpose, rights, options or warrants to acquire a fixed number of the entity's own equity instruments for a fixed amount of any currency are considered equity instruments if the entity offers the rights, options or pro rata warrants to all existing owners of the same class of its own non-derivative equity instruments.

On initial recognition the Company classifies each of its financial liabilities as:

  • financial liabilities designated at fair value through financial result,
  • other financial liabilities designated at amortized cost.

On initial recognition a financial liability is estimated at fair value, which is increased – if the given liability is not qualified for estimation at fair value through financial result – by the cost of transactions directly related to said liability.

Inventories

The initial value (cost) of an inventory is the sum of all costs (related to purchase, production etc.) incurred in bringing the inventory to its current level and location. The cost of inventories is defined as the original purchase price increased by import duties and other taxes (which cannot be recovered from tax authorities), transport, loading and unloading costs, and any other costs associated with construction of inventories, and reduced by any discounts, rebates and similar deductions. Inventories are valued at initial cost (purchase price or production cost) or at their net sale price, whichever is lower. The net sale price is defined as the estimated sale price reduced by any costs involved in finalizing production, facilitating the sale and finding a buyer (this includes sales and marketing expenses, etc.) In relation to inventories, cost is always determined by applying the "weighted average" method.

Trade and other receivables

Receivables associated with delivery of products and services are entered in the accounts at their transaction prices, adjusted for impairment allowances under the expected credit loss model.

Claims related to sale of products which have been produced and accounted for in the reporting period but reported following the end of this period (in accordance with contractual obligations) are reported as trade receivables.

Accrued and deferred charges

The Company includes in its statement of deferred and accrued charges any prepayments and charges related in part or in full to future reporting periods.

Deferred charges are recognized by the Company as allocated to future reporting periods, depending on when the relevant revenue is realized.

Accrued charges are charges associated with payment for products or services which have been received or performed, but which have not been paid for, invoiced or formally agreed upon with the supplier.

Cash and other monetary assets

Cash assets are defined as cash on hand, deposits payable on demand and bank deposits with maturity periods of up to 3 months. Other monetary assets represent highly liquid short-term investments easily exchangeable for a known quantity of cash and subject to low depreciation risk.

Overdraft on any current bank account is aggregated with credits and loans.

Cash flows associated with loans granted or taken out under the cash pool agreement are aggregated with other inflows or outflows from financial activities, as appropriate.

Assets held for sale and discontinued operations

Fixed assets held for sale (as well as net disposal groups) are estimated at either their carrying amount or their fair value less the cost of sale, whichever is lower.

Fixed assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount is expected to be retrieved by way of sale rather than continued use. This condition is only considered fulfilled if the sale transaction is highly likely to occur and the given asset (or disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present form. Designating a given asset as held for sale conveys the Company management's intent to conclude the sale transaction within one year of such a designation being made.

Equity

Equity is treated in accounting practice with distinction to its type and in accordance with the applicable legal constraints, as well as any statutory requirements and conditions expressed in the contracts to which the Company is a party.

Share capital is reported at nominal value, in the amount consistent with the Company's Articles of Association and its record in the court register.

Supplementary capital is derived from:

  • the positive difference between the issue price of shares and their corresponding nominal value less the cost of issuance. Said costs, incurred while establishing a joint-stock company or increasing its share capital, limit the capital to the excess of issue price over the nominal value of shares,
  • profit earned.

Provisions for liabilities

Provisions are created whenever the Company faces a liability (whether legal or customary) resulting from past events, it is likely that discharging said liability will reduce the Company's economic advantage and the liability can be reliably estimated. No provisions are made for future operating losses.

Restructuring cost allowances are made only when the Company has revealed a detailed and formalized restructuring plan to all interested parties.

Employee benefits

The costs of short-term employee benefits other than those stemming from termination of employment and equity compensation are recognized as liabilities following adjustment for any payments already made and, at the same time, as expenses during the period, unless a given benefit is includable in the cost of construction of an asset. The Company does not provide any employee benefit programs following termination of employment.

On 24 May 2016 the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of CD PROJEKT S.A. voted to institute an incentive program for persons viewed as crucially important for the Company's Group as a whole and having a decisive influence upon the development of the Group's activity branches. A set of targets were established and the Management Board and Supervisory Board of the Company selected a number of persons who, assuming these profit and marketing goals are met, are rewarded with warrants entitling them to acquire company shares by way of a conditional increase in the Company's share capital. Details are presented in Current Report no. 18/2016 of 24 May 2016. The incentive program is settled in accordance with IFRS 2 Share-based payment rules.

Bank credits and loans

Any bank credits on which interest is charged (including overdraft facilities) are recognized in the amount of acquired revenues less the cost of acquisition. Financial costs, including commissions charged upon repayment or waivers, as well as direct costs of obtaining credit are reported in the profit and loss account using the accrual accounting method and included in the book value of

the instrument adjusted for any repayments made in the reporting period. Accounting practices related to credits are also applied to loans. Loans granted are estimated at their amortized cost adjusted by applying the effective interest rate.

Trade and other liabilities

Liabilities pertaining to supplies and services are reported in their amortized cost. Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to their commercial substance which depends on contractual obligations. Equity instruments are defined as contracts granting a share in the Company's equity less any applicable liabilities.

Borrowing costs

Borrowing costs associated with the purchase, construction or creation of a qualifying asset are recognized as a component of its acquisition or construction cost (IAS 23).

Dividend payments

Dividends are recognized at the moment the Company's shareholders become entitled to receive them.

Functional currency and presentation currency

Functional currency and presentation currency

Figures reported in this financial statement are denominated in the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company carries outs its activities (functional currency). The functional currency and the presentation currency of the Company is the Polish Zloty (PLN).

Transactions and balances

Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are converted to the functional currency according to the exchange rate on the date of the transaction. Exchange rate losses and gains on settlement of transactions and on valuation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are reported in the profit and loss statement unless deferred in the equity capital as cash flow hedges and hedges of net investments.

Important values based on professional judgment and estimates

Professional judgment

In applying accounting practices (policies) the Company did not identify any issues which would be primarily affected by the Company management's professional judgment as opposed to accounting considerations.

Uncertainty of estimates

This section lists key assumptions regarding future conditions and other fundamental sources of uncertainty, as of the balance sheet date, which may pose a serious risk of significant adjustments in asset and liability valuation during the coming financial year.

Goodwill and trademark impairment tests require an assessment of the value in use of each cash generating unit. This assessment is based on a projection of future cash flows generated by individual cash generating units and requires an estimate of the discount rate applied when conducting pending assessment of the value of said flows. The latest test of the CD PROJEKT brand name, The Witcher trademark and of goodwill was conducted on 31 December 2018. As of 31 December 2019 an analysis of input data for models utilized in the preceding year had been carried out, and in light of the conclusion that existing data would doubtlessly produce results greater than those obtained in 2018, no impairment of any of the aforementioned assets or goodwill was identified. Asset impairment tests at individual subsidiaries were last conducted on 31 December 2019. No circumstances were identified which would suggest impairment of these assets.

Valuation of provisions

Provisions for employee pensions and incentive program benefits settled in own shares were estimated on the basis of actuarial gains and losses.

Deferred tax assets

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets by anticipating future taxable revenues which may require recognition of such assets. A decrease in future economic performance might render such assumptions invalid.

Deferred tax provisions

The Company recognizes deferred income tax provisions by anticipating future tax liabilities arising from positive temporary differences, enabling the given provision to be consumed.

Fair value of financial instruments

Financial instruments for which there is no active market are estimated using the appropriate valuation methods. In selecting the suitable methods and assumptions the Company applies its professional judgment.

Depreciation rates

Depreciation rates are determined on the basis of the expected useful economic life of tangible equity assets and intangible assets. The Company performs annual validation of the assumed useful economic life of its assets, based on current estimates.

Comparability of financial statements, changes in accounting policies and projections

Changes in accounting policies

The accounting practices applied in preparing this separate financial statement, the Management Board's professional judgment concerning the Company's accounting practices as well as the main sources of uncertainty in estimations are in all material aspects consistent with the practices applied in preparing the Separate Financial Statement of CD PROJEKT S.A. for 2018, except for changes in accounting policies and presentation-related adjustments described below.

Presentation changes

This separate financial statement for the period between 1 January and 31 December 2019 includes changes in the presentation of certain financial data. In order to ensure comparability of financial data, adjustments were also introduced with respect to reference data for the period between 1 January and 31 December 2018 as well as reference data for 31 December 2018. The following adjustments were made:

  • In the statement of financial position for 31 December 2018 and in the statement of cash flows for the period between 1 January and 31 December 2018 the presentation of future period sales was adjusted as follows:
    • Statement of financial position for 31 December 2018
      • Other liabilities adjusted by (22 603) thousand PLN
      • Deferred revenues adjusted by 22 603 thousand PLN
    • Statement of cash flows for the period between 1 January and 31 December 2018
      • Changes in liabilities except credits and loans adjusted by (22 378) thousand PLN
      • Change in other assets and liabilities adjusted by 22 378 thousand PLN

These changes have no effect on the Company's financial result or equity.

Change in projections

The aggregate consolidated basic net earnings per share from continuing operations of the CD PROJEKT Group for the period between 1 January 2016 and 30 June 2019 was 6.39 PLN, which is 0.12 PLN below the goal of the incentive program for 2016-2019 in force at the Group. Given the Company's stock volume, this corresponds to a difference of 11 534 thousand PLN in the Group's consolidated net profit from continuing operations. Validation of attainment of the program's goals is based solely on annual results; however, in light of the results obtained by the end of the first half of 2019, along with the Company's release schedule for the second half of the year, the Board decided in mid-2019 to alter its projections regarding the likely attainment of the program goals in the years 2016-2021 and assume that the goals of the program would likely be met as defined for the period between 2016 and 2019.

This change in projections necessitated recognition of costs related to the expected entitlements over a shorter timeframe than originally anticipated. Earlier recognition of costs associated with the incentive program in relation to past reporting periods was reflected in the Company's accounts at the moment of the reported change in projections, i.e. during the second quarter of 2019. In later reporting periods costs associated with the incentive program are recognized in accordance with the updated projections.

In line with the Board's updated projections, the goals of the incentive program were achieved at the end of 2019. Further information regarding attainment of the incentive program's goals by the Company can be found in the Management Board report on CD PROJEKT Group and CD PROJEKT S.A. activities in the period between 1 January and 31 December 2019.

Base earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit for the reporting period attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by a weighted average of the number of ordinary shares issued valid during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit for the reporting period attributable to ordinary equity holders of the Company by a weighted average of the number of ordinary shares issued valid during the reporting period (adjusted for the effect of dilutive options and dilutive redeemable preference shares convertible into ordinary shares).

During the 12-month period ending on 31 December 2019 dilutive instruments comprised entitlements assigned under the incentive program and permitting certain parties to claim shares of the Company. Information regarding the quantity of entitlements assigned is provided in Note 43.

Goodwill impairment tests require an assessment of the value in use of each cash generating unit. This assessment is based on a projection of future cash flows generated by individual cash generating units and requires an estimate of the discount rate applied when conducting pending assessment of the value of said flows. The latest test of goodwill was conducted on 31 December 2018. As of 31 December 2019 an analysis of input data for models utilized in the preceding year had been carried out, and in light of the conclusion that existing data would doubtlessly produce results greater than those obtained in 2018, no impairment of goodwill was identified.

Business combinations

As a lessee the Company may potentially incur cash outflows which are not currently included in its valuation of lease liabilities, including:

  • With regard to lease agreements reported in Note 37, concerning perpetual usufruct of land comprising the properties at Jagiellońska 74 and 76 – changes in lease fees may result from revaluation of annual payments related to perpetual usufruct of land by adjusting them to reflect the current value of the property or by modifying the base rate upon which fees are calculated.

  • With regard to the agreement reported in Note 37, concerning office space in Kraków, which effectively constitutes a lease agreement – changes in lease fees may result from indexation accounting for increases in the retail price index, to which the lessor is contractually entitled.

Short-term lease agreements and lease of low-value assets

The Company has entered into agreements concerning leasing of office equipment (multipurpose photocopiers, kitchen equipment) as well as apartments which potentially meet the criteria of lease agreements under IFRS 16. However, the Company regards these agreements as either short-term or concerning low-value assets and, consequently, does not apply the new standard to these agreements in line with the practical expedient specified in Art. 5 of the new standard. In such cases lease payments are reported as costs during the period in which they are incurred, using either the straight-line method or another method which best reflects the breakdown of payments throughout the duration of the agreement (information regarding costs related to such agreements, incurred between 1 January and 31 December 2019, can be found in Note 3).

As of 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018 future payments associated with irrevocable short-term lease agreements and lease agreements concerning low-value assets are as follows:

31.12.2019 31.12.2018

due between 1 and 5 years 273 -

The following assumptions were made by the actuary when calculating provisions:

31.12.2019 31.12.2018
Discount rate (%) 2.02 2.73
Projected inflation rate (%) 2.02 2.73
Employee turnover rate (%) – adjusted for age 9.6% at age 32 8.4% at age 32

5%
Mortality rates published by the Central Statistical Office (year of
estimation)
2018 2017
Likelihood of disability during the fiscal year 0.1% 0.1%

Statistical methods were employed by an actuary to construct and calibrate a mobility model for Company employees, based on the Multiple Decrement paradigm. The model was calibrated using historical data supplied by the Company. Based on publicly available statistical data and the actuary's own analysis, the mobility coefficient was assumed to decrease with age. The valuation model is highly sensitive to changes in mobility coefficients and should therefore be subject to frequent verifications and updates.

Note 42. Equity management

The main goal of equity management at the Company is to retain a good credit rating and safe capital indicators, facilitating Company operations, enabling implementation of future development and publishing plans, and increasing shareholder value.

The Company actively manages its equity structure, resulting in changes which reflect changing economic conditions. In order to retain or adjust said structure, the Company may pay out dividends to shareholders, return capital to shareholders or issue new shares. The Company monitors its capital status by applying a leverage ratio which is calculated as the ratio of net borrowing versus total equity increased by net borrowing. As of 31 December 2019 the value of cash assets held by the Company is in excess of its sum of trade liabilities and other liabilities. Consequently, the Company reports a positive cash balance.

Note 43. Employee share programs

2016-2021 incentive program

On 24 May 2016 the General Meeting of Shareholders voted to institute an incentive program covering the years 2016-2021. According to the program's conditions, a maximum of 6 000 000 entitlements may be granted. Implementation of the program may be carried out by issuing and assigning series B subscription warrants, entitling holders to claim Company shares issued as a conditional increase in the Company share capital, or by presenting entitled parties with an offer to buy existing shares which the Company will have previously bought back on the open market. In either case, implementation of the program is contingent upon meeting specific result goals (80% of entitlements) and market goals (20% of entitlements), in addition to a loyalty criterion which applies to each entitled party until such time as the attainment of either goal is officially declared.

In conjunction with assignment of Series B subscription warrants, the Company is also discretionarily empowered to present each entitled party with an offer to repurchase said warrants, in part or in whole, for redemption.

As of the balance sheet date, a total of 5 535 000 entitlements have been granted under the incentive program. This corresponds to a conditional increase in the Company share capital by not more than 6 000 thousand PLN, representing 6.24% of the current share capital of the Company.

Grant date

In 2019 the Company issued grants of eligibility in two batches. The fair value of assigned entitlements was calculated on the corresponding grant date using modern financial engineering methods and numerical algorithms (an extension of the so-called Black-Scholes-Morton model) by a licensed actuary entered in the register of actuaries maintained by the Financial Supervision Authority (cf. above table).

Classification of estimation conditions

The condition associated with changes in the Company stock price vs. changes in the value of the WIG index and the condition specifying that on the day of exercise the market price must be above the acquisition price are considered market conditions. Conditions related to increases in net profits are considered non-market conditions. Formal terms (e.g. correct and timely filing of the relevant documentation), loyalty criteria and any other terms not related to share price are also treated as non-market conditions, as is the requirement of survival until the exercise date and other similar stipulations.

Shares outstanding on grant date

As of 31 December 2019 the Company had issued 96 120 000 shares.

Status of the program

As of 31 December 2019 the goals of the incentive program for 2016-2021 have been achieved. Further information regarding the incentive program can be found in the Management Board report on CD PROJEKT Group and CD PROJEKT S.A. activities for the period between 1 January and 31 December 2019.

Note 44. Transactions with affiliates

Conditions governing transactions with affiliates

Intragroup transactions are conducted at market prices on the basis of the so-called arm's length principle. The principle stipulates that transactions between affiliated entities should be carried out under conditions similar to those which would otherwise apply to transactions carried out by unaffiliated entities.

The prices of goods and services exchanged within the Group are estimated in accordance with OECD guidelines and national legislation. Transfer method selection is preceded by a thorough analysis of each transaction, which includes, among others, the assignment of responsibilities to each party, the assets involved and the corresponding allocation of risks and costs. In each case, the method regarded as most appropriate for the given transaction type is applied so that transactions between member companies of the CD PROJEKT Group are carried out under conditions approximating those which unaffiliated entities could be expected to agree upon.

Note 47. Activated borrowing costs

Not applicable.

Note 48. Fiscal settlements

Fiscal settlements and other areas of activity governed by legal regulations (such as import duties or currency exchange) may be subject to audits by administrative bodies authorized to impose high penalties and sanctions. The lack of entrenched legal regulations in Poland leads to numerous ambiguities and inconsistencies in this regard. Interpretation of existing tax law frequently varies from state organ to state organ as well as between state organs and business entities, giving rise to areas of uncertainty and conflict. These conditions elevate tax risks in Poland beyond the level encountered in states with more developed fiscal systems.

As a rule, fiscal settlements may be subject to state audits within five years following the end of the calendar year in which tax payment was due.

On 15 July 2016 the Tax Code was amended to reflect the stipulations of the General Anti-Avoidance Rule (GAAR). The goal of GAAR is to discourage creation and exploitation of fictitious legal structures which serve primarily as a means of avoiding taxation. GAAR is applicable to transactions carried out following its introduction as well as to preceding transactions, if such transactions continued to generate tax benefits on the date of introduction of GAAR. Implementation of the abovementioned rules enables Polish tax authorities to question legal agreements concluded by taxable entities, such as restructuring and reorganization of the Group, as well as – in certain instances – refuse to issue binding interpretations securing fiscal settlements.

R&D tax relief and R&D center status; IP Box preference

Given that the Company meets the requirements expressed in Art. 19 of the Act of 30 May 2008 on certain forms of supporting innovative activity (JL 2019 item 1402), on 9 September 2019, the Minister for Entrepreneurship and Technology issued decision no. DNP-IV.4241.18.2019, upholding the previous decision no. 4/CBR/18 of 19 June 2018 which bestowed upon the Company the status of an R&D center. This status entitles the Company to apply broader R&D tax relief options specified in the Corporate Income Tax Act of 15 February 1992 (JL 2019, item 865, as amended).

On 1 January 2019, the Corporate Income Tax Act was amended with regulations which enable taxpayers to apply a preferential tax rate of 5% to eligible income derived from intellectual property rights. Having fulfilled the conditions and formal stipulations expressed in the aforementioned legislation, the Company is able to apply the preferential rate to certain sources of its income.

Note 49. Events following the balance sheet date

Events which have an effect on the financial statement for 2019

On 24 January 2020 the Company received a favorable interpretation of tax law concerning its ability – subject to other legal provisions – to apply the preferential 5% tax rate to revenues obtained from commercialization of intellectual property rights associated with its videogames (the so-called IP BOX preference). This interpretation has an effect on the corporate income tax reported in the Company's financial statement for the period between 1 January and 31 December 2019.

Events which do not have an effect on the financial statement for 2019

Notable events which have occurred after the balance sheet date and do not have an effect on the Company's financial statement for the period between 1 January and 31 December 2019 are as follows:

  • rescheduling the release of Cyberpunk 2077 to 17 September 2020,
  • release (on 28 January 2020) of Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales for the Nintendo Switch portable gaming console,
  • release (on 24 March 2020) of GWENT for Android devices,
  • outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Detailed information about events which have occurred after the balance sheet date can be found in the Management Board report on CD PROJEKT Group and CD PROJEKT S.A. activities for the period between 1 January and 31 December 2019.
