The Group’s total Sales revenue in the first quarter of 2023 was lower compared to the first quarter of last year, which, partly due to the release of the next-generation console game Cyberpunk 2077, was the best first quarter sales-wise in the Group’s history. A decline in revenue with the CD PROJEKT RED segment’s steady portfolio of games and the lack of major sales-boosting events is a natural trend. Sales of products had the largest share in the CD PROJEKT Group’s sales revenue for the period under review and primarily related to: a) royalties resulting from the sale of Cyberpunk 2077; b) royalties resulting from the sale of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt with Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine expansions; c) licence revenue from CD PROJEKT RED studio franchises; d) revenue related to other products of the CD PROJEKT RED segment: the GWENT games: The Witcher Card Game, The Witcher 2: The Assassins of Kings, The Witcher and Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales. Sales of goods for resale and materials were another significant item of sales revenue, which mainly comprised revenue from digital distribution of games from third-party suppliers to end customers via the GOG.COM platform, where, compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, the GOG.COM segment recorded a slight increase, as well as revenue from sales of physical products of the CD PROJEKT RED segment.

Costs of products and services sold were the first component of the Group’s Cost of sales of products, services, goods for resale and materials, which comprise mainly amortization of development expenditure on games developed in house. The value of the item in question in the first quarter of 2023 consisted primarily of the amortization of expenditure on Cyberpunk 2077, which, after being expensed at 40% of the expenditure in the quarter of release (fourth quarter of 2020), is recognized in subsequent quarterly periods at 3% of the initial value of the asset, and the amortization of production costs of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for the new- generation consoles Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5, which is accounted for on a straight-line basis over 3 years from the date of its release in December 2022. This item also includes the cost of sales related to sales of services. The cost of goods for resale and materials sold comprises mainly the cost of sales generated as part of the GOG.COM platform and the cost of sales of physical products of the CD PROJEKT RED segment. In the first quarter of 2023, the largest part of the Cost of sales were the costs reported in the CD PROJEKT RED segment related to publishing, advertising and promotion of own titles, including salaries (both fixed and result-driven) of internal publishing departments and other external services related to boosting of sales. Due to the lack of significant promotional events in the period under review, costs of promotion campaigns decreased relative to the comparative period. The second major group of costs of sales were costs of maintenance of released titles, the significant part of which in the reporting period were the maintenance and development costs of GWENT: The Witcher Card Game and the maintenance costs of Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3 for next-generation consoles. Compared to the first quarter of 2022, the amount of the maintenance costs dropped, mainly due to a decrease in costs related to work on Cyberpunk 2077 updates and a reduction in expenses related to GWENT: The Witcher Card Game project. In addition, this category includes costs included in the GOG.COM segment related to marketing activities for the GOG.COM service, as well as work related to the development and handling of sales made through the service. Administrative expenses of the CD PROJEKT Group mainly include: a) salaries of the administration teams and external services costs classified in this category showing a steady upward trend accompanying the Group’s growth; b) the costs of working on future games during the initial period of their development (research phase) before moving on to the implementation of projects (development phase) and starting to capitalize them within expenditure on development projects which is a part of non-current assets; c) the fixed and performance-related remuneration of the companies’ management boards; d) performance-related remuneration of the companies’ senior management; e) costs of valuation of the entitlements granted under the 2020-2025 incentive scheme. The balance of administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2023 was at a similar level to the amount in the comparative period, accompanied by a change in their structure. Initial product development costs decreased as projects moved on to the development phase while other administrative expenses increased due to the increase in the scale of the Group’s operations and general price increases. The Group’s other operating income and expenses comprise mainly income generated by CD PROJEKT from the rental of office space (and accompanying maintenance costs) in the real estate complex at ul. Jagiellońska 74 and 76 in Warsaw, as well as proceeds from subsidies received.

Expenditure on development projects, in which the Group recognizes incurred and deferred expenditure on the production of games and new technologies, represented the largest share of the Group’s non-current assets at the end of the first quarter of 2023, and had the largest impact on the increase in their balance. The increase in the value of the item in question in the period under analysis is a result the CD PROJEKT RED segment incurring higher expenditure on the production of future games than the depreciation of completed productions. The increase in the balance of CD PROJEKT Group’s Property, plant and equipment is mainly due to expenditure on network infrastructure and developers’ workstations (machinery and equipment), as well as expenditure on construction work on the CD PROJEKT campus in Warsaw (assets under construction). The balance of Other non-current and current financial assets consists primarily of domestic and foreign government bonds acquired as part of credit risk diversification, together with the valuation of derivative financial instruments hedging the currency risk of foreign bonds. The consolidated current and non-current Prepayments and deferred costs recognized at the end of the period under analysis comprised mainly the value of the so-called minimum guarantees disclosed in the GOG.COM segment, i.e. advance payments and prepayments made by GOG.COM to suppliers for fees related to the distribution of games offered on the GOG.COM platform. The Group also recognizes the settlement of utility software subscriptions under this heading. The consolidated balance of Trade receivables decreased relative to 31 December 2022 mainly as a result of the inflow in the CD PROJEKT RED segment of receivables related to the usual high level of game sales in December 2022. The Group’s Other receivables as at the end of March 2023 include, in particular, tax receivables, settlements with the insurer of the costs of the US class action settlement and advances paid by CD PROJEKT RED for development works, goods for resale and services. The total value of financial reserves in the form of Cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits over 3 months and liquid financial assets in the form of purchased treasury bonds (collectively included in current and non-current Other financial assets) held by the Group as at 31.03.2023 amounted to PLN 1 112 251 thousand (compared with PLN 1 091 005 thousand as at 31.12.2022).

As at the end of the first quarter of 2023, the Equity of the CD PROJECT Group amounted to PLN 2 105 970 thousand and was PLN 72 566 thousand higher than at the end of 2022, which was mainly influenced by the Net profit (loss) for the period. Other non-current and current financial liabilities in the period under analysis are mainly related to the revaluation of instruments hedging the exchange rate risk associated with holding foreign Treasury bonds denominated in foreign currencies. In this item, the Group also recognizes liabilities for perpetual usufruct of land in the Jagiellońska 74 and Jagiellońska 76 complexes in Warsaw, as well as liabilities for payment of a portion of the purchase price of shares in The Molasses Flood with a deferred payment date. The decrease in the Group’s Trade payables results from the ongoing operations of the CD PROJEKT RED segment. In addition, in this item the Group presents liabilities of the GOG.COM segment resulting mainly from royalties relating to sales made in the first quarter of 2023. The Group’s total Other liabilities in the period under analysis consisted mainly of current taxation liabilities (VAT, PIT, withholding tax) and social security. The balance of the CD PROJEKT Group’s Deferred income as at the end of March 2023 mainly consists of:
* CD PROJEKT RED – sales relating to future periods – so-called minimum guarantees, i.e. advances received or due from publishers and distribution partners for royalties related to sales in future periods;
* CD PROJEKT RED and GOG.COM – deferred income relating to grants;
* GOG.COM – deferred income relating to the company’s customers (GOG Portfolio);
* GOG.COM – sales related to future periods – the value of pre-orders placed by customers for games with release dates in future periods.# Changes in the balance of the CD PROJEKT Group’s Other provisions
Changes in the balance of the CD PROJEKT Group’s Other provisions related mainly to the CD PROJEKT RED segment in the first quarter of 2023 under analysis, where:
- provisions recorded for salaries contingent on the current period’s result increased the balance of other provisions;
- the excess of utilized provisions for other costs over newly created provisions reduced the balance of other provisions.

On 11 May 2023, the Management Board of CD PROJEKT, in reference to current report no. 8/2023 of 20 March 2023, announced the completion of work on defining the new framework of Project Sirius being developed by The Molasses Flood studio. As a result of defining the new Project framework in the Company’s books:
- the write-down of the development expenditure incurred in 2022 related to the Project, which originally amounted to PLN 33.4 million and was charged to the financial result of the Company and the CD PROJEKT Group for 2022, was partially reversed, in an amount of PLN 21.5 million;
- a part of the expenditure, in an amount of PLN 2.7 million, incurred on development related to the Project in Q1 2023 was written off.
The reversal of a part of the impairment charge for 2022 and writing off a part of the development expenditure incurred in Q1 2023 is the result of the decision to continue the Project within the newly defined framework and thus use a significant part of the work completed to date in the further development of the game being developed by The Molasses Flood studio.
On 15-16 May 2023, a representation of CD PROJEKT RED took part in the most important conference for the Polish game industry – Digital Dragons. Studio representatives shared their knowledge and experience gained from working on The Witcher and Cyberpunk 2077.
On 18 May 2023, the studio announced the date for this year’s Promised Land Art Festival, a unique gathering for creative professionals from the creative industries (including film, video games and digital art). This year’s festival will take place between 2 and 6 September at the EC1 complex in Łódź.

37 Factors affecting the Group’s future performance
For the future growth of the Company and the Group, the ability to retain and offer growth opportunities to a team of the best creative professionals and experts, and to attract new specialists to work on the Group’s projects is of critical importance. Strategic directions related to talent acquisition, team development and support are presented in the CD PROJEKT Group Strategy Update of 2021 (including its discussion in the form of a video commentary) and in the CD PROJEKT Group Sustainable Development Report for 2022.
At the same time, important aspects supporting the development of the Group will include effective implementation of the production plan of CD PROJEKT RED presented in October 2022, within the framework of Strategy Update, as well as further development of recognisability and popularity of franchises (including through cooperation with external entities) and the enrichment with multiplayer gameplay elements of selected titles developed within the framework of owned IPs.
Material Group-specific external and internal factors which may negatively affect the Group’s operations and development identified by the Management Board and the risk management system functioning within the Company are described in the risks section of the Management Report on the operations of CD PROJEKT Group for 2022.
Looking ahead to the next quarters of 2023, the CD PROJEKT Group intends to continue the organic growth of its business.
CD PROJEKT RED
In the CD PROJEKT RED segment, expansion of the operations is directly linked to new projects implemented, the scale of their production and popularity among players. In this context, the current results of the CD PROJEKT Group are driven by the popularity of the games in the Cyberpunk and The Witcher universe already issued by the Company, and in the coming periods they will be driven by the progress of the production work and the market reception of the successive productions realized by the Company.
Looking ahead to the next quarters, particularly important activities for the CD PROJEKT RED studio will include the release of a major expansion to Cyberpunk 2077 and continued organic growth of the business, also within the newly established CD PROJEKT RED North America studio.
Another important process in the context of the development of the CD PROJEKT RED studio is the continuation of work on implementing the new Unreal Engine 5 (the licence and partnership agreement with Epic Games was concluded in March 2022). The new engine used should contribute to making the process of games creation more efficient. The strategic partnership assumes improving the UE5 engine in terms of handling ‘open world’ games and adaptation and optimization of its elements to creative concepts of the next projects. It also involves dedicated technical support on the part of Epic Games for titles released by CD PROJEKT RED. Performing work on the EU5 engine should also facilitate recruitment to the studio’s development teams due to the good knowledge of the Unreal Engine among game creators.
A key factor in maintaining the high growth dynamics of the CD PROJEKT RED segment in the future is the further development of the in-house ability to produce games of the highest world class and quality, combined with the ability to communicate effectively with players around the world. Both are part of the RED 2.0 studio’s ongoing transformation, which aims, among other things, to change the way games are developed to be more flexible, based on agile methodologies, and to support the quality of future products.
The growing team, as well as the number and scale of productions, requires the ability to effectively manage teams and production within CD PROJEKT RED’s studios in Europe (consisting of offices in Warsaw, Kraków and Wrocław) and North America (Vancouver and the newly established office in Boston), The Molasses Flood studio (Boston), as well as publishing activities realized mainly by teams from Warsaw, Los Angeles, Seoul, Tokyo and local representatives in other countries.
The success of each of the studio’s productions is important from the perspective of its being perceived as a creator of highly anticipated, top-quality entertainment products and building the long-term value and recognisability of The Witcher, Cyberpunk brands, the internally produced third franchise and the studio’s own brand – which are the cornerstones of the Company’s and Group’s operations and continued growth.
On the management side of ongoing projects, having two product lines – The Witcher and Cyberpunk – as well as two independent development teams enabled parallel production of individual projects starting in 2022. Changing the operations to a publishing model based on two brands running in parallel, and in the future three or more projects running concurrently, will potentially enable optimization in terms of production and finance, increase the frequency of new launches and increase the aggregate revenue, and will help further diversify risks, while opening up more opportunities for professional self- realization for the creators employed by the Company.
GOG.COM
In the GOG.COM segment, the increasing propensity of consumers to purchase games directly online in recent years has been an element supporting growth. It will be important for the further development of the GOG.COM platform to further popularize it among gamers and to acquire more premiere products. GOG sp. z o.o. is proactively talking with leading international game developers and publishers, constantly expanding the range of suppliers and products on offer. Successive first releases of new games on GOG-COM each time contribute to increasing user activity and translate to sales growth.
In addition to continuously expanding the list of the products offered, expansion of GOG sp. z o.o.’s operations also requires growing the user base by reaching to new players around the world who have not yet had an account on the GOG.COM platform. In this respect, in recent years, a constant growth of the number of users has been achieved, due to both intensive own PR activities, cooperation with business partners and synergies resulting from cooperation with CD PROJEKT S.A.

The results and development of the activities carried out as part of the GOG.COM segment, including acquisition of unique knowledge and experience and the full use of technological solutions possessed will be affected by the development of functionalities which support the sale of games on the platform, including better integration of monetization mechanisms of the GOG GALAXY application with the GOG.COM shop, as well as increased activity to expand the offer of classic games on the platform.
Other
The development of the CD PROJEKT Group will also be influenced by the development work carried out by its subsidiary The Molasses Flood.# Impact of the political and economic situation in Ukraine on sales during the reporting period
Impact on sales
In response to the Russian armed invasion of Ukraine, on 3 March 2022 the Management Board of CD PROJEKT decided to suspend sales of CD PROJEKT Group products as well as games distributed on the GOG.COM platform in the territory of Russia and Belarus. The Company estimates that in the 12 months since March 2021 to February 2022, the total share of Russia and Belarus in sales of products in the CD PROJEKT RED segment and in the sales of the GOG.COM segment amounted to, respectively, approximately 5.4% and approximately 3.7%.
Risks associated with the current political and economic situation in Ukraine
The Company continually monitors the impact of the current political and economic situation in Ukraine, Russia and Belarus on the activities of the CD PROJEKT Group. The Company terminated cooperation with the Russian and Belarussian suppliers and is currently not considering engaging in new collaboration. As of the publication date of these financial statements, the Group’s operating activities are undisturbed and the effects of the Russian armed invasion of Ukraine do not have a significant negative impact on the Group’s operations.
In the opinion of the Management Board, the current political and economic situation in Ukraine does not materially affect the quantitative data presented in the financial statements, has not resulted in any indications of impairment of assets, should not have a significant negative effect on the Group’s results in 2023, and does not pose any risks to the Company’s continuing as a going concern within 12 months of the end of the reporting period.
Given the unprecedented nature of the current situation and the related significant uncertainty, particularly the inability to predict the duration of the Russian invasion, as at the date of publication of these financial statements, it is impossible to reliably estimate the long-term impact of the invasion of the Russian armed forces on Ukraine on long-term performance and condition of the Company and its Group. Any assessments and forecasts in this regard are uncertain and will be subject to further monitoring and analysis by the Group. The above assessment has been prepared to the best of the Company’s knowledge at the date of preparing these financial statements.
Seasonality or cyclicality of the Group’s operations
CD PROJEKT RED Segment
Revenues and results are strongly affected by the new titles’ release schedule. CD PROJEKT RED usually takes between 2 and 5 years to produce a game. Typically, initial development work on a new game starts before the production of the previous game has been completed and the game release to the market. CD PROJEKT RED also engages in smaller-scale projects – such as add-ons for its own games or adapting the existing products to work on new gaming platforms. Such projects may be carried out directly by the Company or by its external partners, and their implementation takes from less than ten to below twenty months.
With regard to games which have already been released, their yearly sales breakdown is dependent on the schedule of periodic sale campaigns. In most cases, strong sales are reported in the second and fourth quarter, while the first and the third quarter (the latter of which overlaps with the summer vacation season) see weaker sales. In addition to pure development activities, the Company also actively develops its franchises in other fields, with a view to continually expanding its audience and exploring other types of media and products.

Release quarters of the CD PROJEKT RED segment – sales of products, goods for resale and materials in 2011-2023 (in PLN thousands)
GOG.COM
The digital videogame distribution market on which GOG.COM operates is characterized by seasonal fluctuations in revenues. On an annual basis, the highest revenues are typically obtained in the second and fourth quarter while the lowest revenues in the first and third quarter. Sales in the second and fourth quarters are temporarily boosted by promotional campaigns typically organized in these quarters. The sales volume may also be strongly affected by the list of new products introduced in a given reporting period.

Key customers
The CD PROJEKT Group cooperates with external customers whose share in the consolidated revenues of the Group exceeds 10%. Within the CD PROJEKT RED segment, the commercial activities carried out by CD PROJEKT S.A. in cooperation with two customers generated cumulative sales exceeding 10% of the CD PROJEKT Group’s total consolidated sales revenue by the end of the first quarter of 2023:
- recipient I: PLN 54 334 thousand, which accounted for 31.1% of the Group’s total consolidated sales revenue,
- recipient II: PLN 29 559 thousand, which accounted for 16.9% of the Group’s total consolidated sales revenue.
The customers referred to above are not related to CD PROJEKT S.A. or its subsidiaries. In the remaining business segments, no external single customer exceeded the threshold of 10% of the Group’s consolidated revenue.

Note 4. Goodwill
During the period from 1 January to 31 March 2023 there were no changes in goodwill.
Note 5. Investment properties
The Parent Company owns a real estate complex located at ul. Jagiellońska 74 and 76 in Warsaw. Given that a part of the properties purchased is leased out to third parties, including CD PROJEKT Group companies, the Group decided to partly classify these properties as investment properties. The remaining part of the property is used for own needs of the activities conducted. The Group measures the properties purchased at cost less accumulated depreciation. The last appraisal report by the expert surveyor, for the buildings recognized as investment properties, was prepared on the basis of unit prices for the construction of buildings with the most similar parameters included in the Bistyp Catalogue of Unit Prices for Works and Investment Facilities 2021. The valuation of the individual assets amounted to PLN 60 692 thousand for the buildings at ul. Jagiellońska 74, and PLN 13 212 thousand for the buildings at ul. Jagiellońska 76.

The deferred part of the income tax was determined either at the corporate income tax rate of 19% for the tax base corresponding to income from other sources, or at the rate of 5% for the tax base corresponding to income from qualifying intellectual property (the so-called IP BOX). When determining the appropriate tax rate for temporary differences, the Group relied on forecasts of which tax base will give rise to the realization of the temporary differences recognized.

Note 20. Leases of low-value assets and short-term leases
The Group concluded lease contracts for office equipment (multifunctional photocopiers, kitchen appliances) and residential premises which potentially meet recognition criteria for leases under the new IFRS 16. However, the Group considered these contracts to be short-term leases and leases of low-value assets and decided not to apply the new requirements for leases to these assets, as permitted by paragraph 5 of the standards. In such cases, lease payments are charged to costs of the period to which they relate, either on a straight-line basis or in some other systematic way that reflects the distribution of costs over the life of the contract (information on the cost of these leases incurred in the period from 1 January to 31 March 2023 is included in Note 17).
As at 31 March 2023, 31 December 2022 and 31 March 2022, future payments in respect of irrevocable short-term leases and leases of low-value assets were as follows:
| 31.03.2023 | 31.12.2022 | 31.03.2022 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to 1 year | 396 | 467 | 338 |

During the period from 1 January to 31 March 2023, Group companies did not pay or receive dividends. On 8 May 2023, the Management Board of the Parent Company recommended to the General Meeting that a dividend of PLN 99 910 510 be paid, i.e. an amount of PLN 1 for each participating share of the Parent Company.
Note 23. Transactions with related entities
Terms and conditions of transactions with related entities
The terms and conditions of intra-group transactions were determined on an arm’s length basis. The essence of this principle is based on the premise that the terms and conditions agreed in transactions between related parties should not differ from those that would be agreed between independent parties in a comparable situation. Controlled transactions entered into by related parties belonging to the CD PROJEKT Group are verified to determine whether the agreed terms of the transactions are similar to the market terms, based on the recommendations and methods provided for in the OECD Guidelines as well as in national legislation.

Acquisition of the remaining shares in the subsidiary Spokko sp. z o.o.
On 31 January 2023, as a result of the Parent Company concluding agreements for the sale of shares with the other shareholders of the subsidiary Spokko sp. z o.o., the Parent Company acquired from those shareholders a total of 135 shares in Spokko sp. z o.o. with a nominal value of PLN 50.00 each, as a result of which the Parent Company became the owner of 100% (i.e. 1089) of shares in that subsidiary. -
Registration of the merger between the Parent Company and its subsidiary - CD PROJEKT RED STORE sp. z o.o.
On 28 February 2023, the District Court for the Capital City of Warsaw in Warsaw entered in the Register of Businesses the merger through acquisition of the Parent Company, as the surviving company, with its subsidiary CD PROJEKT RED STORE sp. z o.o. with its registered office in Warsaw, as the target company. The merger was carried out in accordance with the merger plan announced on 17 November 2022, i.e. by transferring all the assets of CD PROJEKT RED STORE sp. z o.o. to the Parent Company, without increasing the share capital of the Parent Company and without exchanging shares of the target company for shares of the Parent Company due to the fact that the Parent Company holds 100% of the shares in the target company.

Incentive scheme for the years 2020-2025
Based on the resolutions of the Parent Company’s General Meeting of 28 July 2020 and 22 September 2020, another edition of the incentive scheme was introduced for 2020–2025. In accordance with the adopted assumptions, a maximum of 4 000 000 entitlements, understood as a conditional right to take up subscription warrants, entitling to take up shares in the Parent Company issued separately as part of a conditional share capital increase, or alternatively to purchase, on preferential terms, the Parent Company’s treasury shares were to be granted as part of the implementation of the scheme. Taking up and exercising of rights from the subscription warrants or, as the case may be, purchasing the Parent Company’s shares by the eligible persons was to be conditional upon the Parent Company’s determination that the objectives and criteria of the scheme have been met. The scheme included performance-related objectives (80% of entitlements), market related objectives (20% of entitlements), individual objectives in selected cases and, in each case, the loyalty criterion which applies until the date of determining that the scheme objectives and criteria have been met. Based on the results achieved in 2020 and 2021 and the assumptions for the subsequent years of the plan, the Management Board of the Parent Company assessed the possibility of achieving the performance targets set in the programme over the entire period of the plan duration and revised the estimates, considering it most likely that the performance targets would not be achieved over that period. On 20 December 2022, the General Meeting of the Parent Company passed resolution no. 5 concerning the discontinuation of the incentive scheme for the financial years 2020-2025, but as its entry into force was subject to the General Meeting adopting certain resolutions on introducing a new incentive scheme, which did not happen, resolution no. 5 did not enter into force as of the date of that General Meeting. The final entry into force of the resolution on the subject of discontinuing the Incentive Scheme 2020- 2025 took place on 18 April 2023. As a result, the General Meeting decided to discontinue the operation of the incentive scheme for the financial years 2020-2025 as of the entry into force of the resolution in question, resulting in its expiry in its entirety. No new entitlements were granted under the 2020-2025 Incentive Scheme during the reporting period. As at 18 April 2023, 2 113 000 entitlements remained in the incentive scheme for 2020-2050. In accordance with the Incentive Scheme Regulations for the years 2020-2025, in the event of the expiry of the incentive scheme, the entitlements granted under the scheme to the eligible persons will also expire.
Incentive scheme for the years 2023– 2027
On 20 December 2022, the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Parent Company passed a resolution on introducing an Incentive Scheme for 2023-2027. However, due to the failure to obtain the required majority for the resolution on the issue of subscription warrants and the conditional increase in the share capital necessary for the implementation of this scheme, the Parent Company did not have the actual possibility to implement it. In view of the above, the Management Board of the Parent Company proposed a new structure of the Incentive Scheme for the financial years 2023-2027, replacing the Incentive Scheme for the years 2020-2025, which was approved by the General Meeting. Thus, two new incentive schemes for the financial years 2023-2027 were introduced on that date by resolutions of the Parent Company’s General Meeting of 18 April 2023: Incentive Scheme A and Incentive Scheme B.
Consolidated financial statements of the CD PROJEKT Group for the period from 1 January to 31 March 2023 (all amounts in PLN thousand, unless stated otherwise)
The attached notes are an integral part of these financial statements
Incentive Scheme A
Incentive Scheme A is addressed to persons who are not members of the Parent Company’s Management Board. The assumptions are that the entitlements in this scheme will be granted in each of the financial years 2023-2027 (i.e. in five phases). A maximum of 1 500 000 entitlements may be granted under the entirety of the Incentive Scheme A. The entitlements will be realized alternatively through: (i) offering participants to subscribe for warrants entitling them to subscribe for an identical number of shares in the Parent Company issued as part of the conditional share capital increase, or (ii) offering participants to purchase from the Parent Company treasury shares acquired by the Parent Company as part of a buy-back carried out for this purpose. Taking up and exercising the rights from the subscription warrants or, as the case may be, purchasing the Parent Company’s shares by the eligible persons will be conditional upon the Parent Company’s determining that the objectives and criteria of the scheme have been met. The price of subscription for or purchase of the Company’s shares as part of exercising the entitlements from Scheme A will correspond to the nominal value of the Company’s shares. The vesting period is 3 years.# Incentive Scheme B
Incentive Scheme B is addressed to both persons who are members of the Parent Company’s Management Board and persons who are not members of the Management Board. The assumptions are that the entitlements in this scheme will be granted in each of the financial years 2023-2027 (i.e. in five phases). A maximum of 3 500 000 entitlements may be granted under the entirety of Incentive Scheme B. The entitlements will be realized alternatively through: (i) offering participants to subscribe for warrants entitling them to subscribe for an identical number of shares in the Parent Company issued as part of the conditional share capital increase, or (ii) offering participants to purchase from the Parent Company treasury shares acquired by the Parent Company as part of a buy- back carried out for this purpose.
Taking up and exercising the rights from the subscription warrants or, as the case may be, purchasing the Parent Company’s shares by the eligible persons will be conditional upon the Parent Company determining that it has fulfilled the performance condition (for 70% of the entitlements), the market condition (for 30% of the entitlements), in selected cases the individual conditions and, in each case, the fulfilment of the loyalty condition. The base price of subscription for or purchase of the Company’s shares as part of exercising the entitlements under Scheme B will correspond to the price of the Company’s shares at the close of the last trading session preceding the date of the relevant resolution on the participant’s inclusion in the scheme. The scheme provides for the possibility to reduce the price of subscription for or purchase of the shares with a simultaneous proportional reduction in the number of rights to be exercised by the participant. The base vesting period corresponds to four consecutive financial years starting from the year in which the relevant phase commenced (with the possibility of shortening to three financial years for performance-related entitlements in the event of a possible faster achievement of the four- year performance target over a three-year period).
Note 28. Tax settlements
Tax settlements and other areas of activities regulated by the tax law may be subject to inspections by administrative bodies which are entitled to impose high penalties or sanctions. The lack of reference to established legal regulations in Poland results in ambiguities and inconsistencies in the binding regulations. Frequent differences of opinion as to the legal interpretation of tax regulations, both internally within the state bodies and between the state bodies and enterprises, result in areas of uncertainty and conflict arising. Due to these factors, the tax risk in Poland is considerably higher than that usually existing in countries with better developed tax systems. In accordance with the general rule, tax settlements may be subject to inspections within five years from the end of the calendar year in which tax was paid.
Following the fulfilment of the criteria set out in Article 19 of the Act of 30 May 2008 on certain forms of innovation support (consolidated text, Journal of Laws of 2022, item 2474), the Minister of Development and Technology, by decision No. DNP-V.4241.16.2022 of 11 August 2022, maintained the status of a research and development centre granted to the Parent Company by decision 4/CBR/18 of 19 June 2018. The status allows the Parent Company to use more broadly the research and development relief provided for in the Act of 15 February 1992 on corporate income tax (consolidated text, Journal of Laws of 2022, item 2587, as amended). With effect from 1 January 2019, provisions were introduced into the Act on corporate income tax granting preferential taxation at the 5% tax rate for qualified income earned by a taxpayer from qualified intellectual property rights. Having met the prerequisites and formal conditions contained in the said legislation, the Parent Company accounts for income (in respect of selected sources of income) taking this tax relief into account.

Note 31. Post-balance sheet date events
The Extraordinary General Meeting of the Parent Company was held on 18 April 2023.# Regulatory Filing
The key resolutions passed by the General Meeting on that date were resolutions on (i) the discontinuation of the Incentive Scheme for the financial years 2020-2025 and (ii) introducing new incentive schemes at the Parent Company for the years 2023-2027, as further described in Note 27 above, as well as resolutions on (iii) the cancellation of treasury shares acquired by the Parent Company as part of the buyback carried out in October 2022 and the related corresponding reduction in the Parent Company’s share capital. By means of these resolutions, the General Meeting resolved to cancel 860 290 treasury shares (i.e. all treasury shares held by the Parent Company) and to reduce the share capital of the Parent Company to PLN 99 910 510. The redemption will take place as soon as the reduction of the share capital of the Parent Company is registered by the registry court. The full content of the resolutions adopted by the Extraordinary General Meeting was announced by the Management Board in current report No. 12/2023.
On 20 April 2023, in current report no. 14/2023, the Management Board of the Parent Company informed that a merger plan between the Company, as the surviving company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary SPOKKO sp. z o.o. as the target company was agreed and signed. The planned merger will be effected by transferring all assets of the target company to the Parent Company in accordance with Article 492 § 1 item 1 of the Commercial Companies Code (merger by acquisition) in connection with Article 516 § 6 of the Commercial Companies Code, without increasing the share capital of the Parent Company and without exchanging the shares in the target company for shares in the Parent Company. This was done because due to the decision to phase out The Witcher: Monster Slayer project implemented by the SPOKKO team, according to which on 30 June 2023 the game will cease to be available to existing players, and the related planned involvement of a part of the SPOKKO team and resources in other projects implemented by CD PROJEKT RED, the Parent Company and SPOKKO sp. z o.o. decided to simplify the structure of the CD PROJEKT Group. These decisions are in line with the CD PROJEKT Group’s business strategy update, which envisages the Group focusing on its core business and implementing mobile projects in cooperation with external partners.
On 8 May 2023, in current report No. 16/2023, the Parent Company’s Management Board announced that it had adopted a resolution on accepting and referring to the General Meeting a proposition concerning the distribution of the Parent Company’s net profit for 2022. The Management Board has proposed to allocate PLN 99 910 510 for the payment of dividend which means the dividend of PLN 1 per each participating share. The Management Board has proposed transferring the remaining part of the Company’s undistributed net profit of PLN 241 162 310.59 to supplementary capital. The number of 99 910 510 shares described as shares participating in the dividend, is the number of shares of the Parent Company less the treasury shares (860 290 shares) of the Parent Company held by the Parent Company as a result of the buyback carried out between 5 and 24 October 2022. At the same time, the Parent Company’s Management Board requested the appointment of: (i) the dividend date as 13 June 2023, and (ii) the dividend payment date as 20 June 2023. On 9 May 2023, the Supervisory Board of the Parent Company gave a positive opinion on the Management Board’s proposal for profit distribution. The final decision on profit distribution and dividend payment will be taken by the Annual General Meeting.
On 10 May 2023, in current report No. 18/2023, the Parent Company’s Management Board announced that it had decided not to continue to buy back the Parent Company’s treasury shares on the basis of Resolution No. 4 of the Company’s General Meeting of 29 November 2016 on authorizing the buyback of the Company’s treasury shares for cancellation, repealing and replacing Resolution No. 22 of the Company’s Annual General Meeting of 24 May 2016 on the same issue. Thus, the possibility of continuing the buyback programme implemented on the basis of that resolution ceased. The decision was related to the Parent Company’s Management Board applying to the General Meeting for a new authorization to buy back the Parent Company’s treasury shares for cancellation.
On 10 May 2023, the Parent Company’s Management Board announced convening the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting of the Parent Company for 20 December 2022. The agenda of the General Meeting will primarily include the resolutions, which are standard for annual company meetings, on the approval of the reports of the Parent Company’s bodies, the discharge of the members of its bodies, and the distribution of its net profit for the financial year 2022. In view of the merger of the Parent Company with CD PROJEKT RED STORE sp. z o.o., the General Meeting of the Parent Company will also vote on similar resolutions with regard to the affairs of the acquired company. In addition, the agenda will include resolutions on the merger of the Parent Company with SPOKKO sp. z o.o., a new authorization for the Parent Company’s Management Board to buy back treasury shares for cancellation, as well as resolutions on amendments to the Parent Company’s Articles of Association concerning, among other things, the introduction of the possibility of paying out interim dividends. The full agenda, including additional information in this respect, is presented in current report no. 19/2023. The full text of the draft resolutions is also available in current report 20/2023.
On 11 May 2023, in current report No. 21/2023, the Parent Company’s Management Board announced the completion of work on defining a new framework for Project Sirius, being developed by The Molasses Flood studio. As a result of defining the new framework for this project, it was decided that the Parent Company’s books: (a) the write-down of the project-related development expenditure incurred in 2022, which originally amounted to PLN 33.4 million and charged to the financial result of the Parent Company and the CD PROJECT Capital Group for 2022, will be reversed partially, in the amount of PLN 21.5 million, and (b) a part of the project-related development expenditure incurred in Q1 2023 will be written off in the amount of PLN 2.7 million. These changes have been included in this report and affect the Parent Company’s results for Q1 2023. They are the result of the decision to continue the Sirius Project within a newly defined framework and thus use a significant part of the work completed to date in the further development of the game being developed by The Molasses Flood.

After the balance sheet date, on 18 April 2023, the General Meeting of the Parent Company adopted a resolution on the cancellation of the treasury shares acquired by the Parent Company as part of the buyback carried out in October 2022 and the related corresponding reduction in the share capital of the Parent Company. By means of these resolutions, the General Meeting resolved to cancel 860 290 treasury shares (i.e. all treasury shares held by the parent company) and to reduce the share capital of the parent company accordingly, i.e. to PLN 99 910 510. The redemption will take place as soon as the reduction in the share capital of the Parent Company is registered by the registry court, which has not yet taken place at the date of publication of this report.

The deferred part of the income tax was determined either at the corporate income tax rate of 19% for the tax base corresponding to income from other sources, or at the rate of 5% for the tax base corresponding to income from qualifying intellectual property (the so-called IP BOX). When determining the appropriate tax rate for temporary differences, the Company relied on forecasts of which the tax base will give rise to the realization of the temporary differences recognized.

In accordance with the requirements of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, the Company analysed the business model for managing financial assets and examined the characteristics of contractual cash flows for each component of the bond portfolio, and concluded that:
* the purpose of investments in domestic and foreign Treasury bonds and domestic bonds guaranteed by the Polish State Treasury is to hold them to maturity and to collect contractual cash flows;
* investment mandates for managing the foreign bonds portfolio allow selling bonds before maturity as part of the adopted strategy;
* all bonds purchased meet the SPPI test.
As a result of the analysis conducted, purchased bonds were classified into two financial asset management models which differ in terms of the entity managing the bond portfolio. Polish Treasury bonds and bonds guaranteed by the Polish State Treasury are measured at amortized cost, because they are held to collect contractual cash flows. Foreign Treasury bonds are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, because of the investment mandate which allows the possibility of the portfolio being managed by an Asset Manager.
