3.2 Consolidated statement of comprehensive income

The consolidated revenue of the GPW Group in the first three quarters of 2025 amounted to PLN 411.5 million, which represents an increase of PLN 60.3 million (+17.2%) compared to the first three quarters of 2024. The higher revenue was primarily driven by increased turnover on the financial market, as described in detail below. Operating expenses in the first three quarters of 2025 increased by PLN 20.9 million (+8.5%), mainly due to higher personnel costs. The dynamic growth in revenue combined with a significantly lower increase in operating expenses in the first three quarters of 2025 resulted in a significant improvement in the profitability of the GPW Group. Consolidated operating profit amounted to PLN 143.1 million, which represents an increase of PLN 46.3 million (+47.8%) compared to 9M 2024. EBITDA for the same period amounted to PLN 170.8 million, an increase of PLN 50.9 million (+42.4%). The high growth rate of operating profit in the reporting period was also influenced by impairment losses of PLN 5.8 million recognised in the comparative period.

Net financial income increased by PLN 2.3 million in the first three quarters of 2025, mainly due to lower costs of provisions for interest on potential VAT liabilities at IRGiT. The share of profit of entities measured by the equity method increased by PLN 6.1 million in the first three quarters of 2025 due to higher profits of the KDPW Group. Income tax expense amounted to PLN 33.1 million, an increase of PLN 9.6 million (+41.1%), proportional to the increase in pre-tax profit. As a result of those changes, consolidated net profit for 9M 2025 amounted to PLN 158.6 million, an increase of PLN 45 million (+39.7%) compared to 9M 2024.

The Group's revenue from trading in electricity stood at PLN 18.5 million in 9M 2025 (-PLN 1.9 million i.e. -9.5% year on year). The total volume of turnover on the energy market operated by TGE was 86.4 TWh in 9M 2025 (-10.3 TWh i.e. - 10.7% year on year). The decrease in electricity turnover in January-September 2025 was mainly driven by a decrease of forward trade volumes by 16.7% to 49.5 TWh. The volumes decreased mainly as a result of the lower popularity of annual contracts despite a modestly improved liquidity of shorter-term contracts.

The Group's revenue from trading in gas stood at PLN 17.8 million in 9M 2025 (+PLN 5.9 million i.e. +49.9% year on year). The volume of turnover in natural gas on TGE increased by 49.4% year on year to 151.2 TWh in 9M 2025. The year-on-year increase in gas turnover volumes was reported both on the forward market and the spot market, driving an increase of revenues from trading in gas. The higher trading volumes on the gas forward market were mainly due to increased long-term contracting (annual and quarterly contracts); the drivers on the spot market included growing consumption of gas and relatively low contracting on the forward market for deliveries in the first months of 2025.

The Group's revenue from trading in property rights in certificates of origin stood at PLN 14.2 million in 9M 2025 (+PLN 0.3 million i.e. +2.5% year on year). The volume of turnover in property rights in certificates of origin of electricity from renewable energy sources was 13.8 TWh in 9M 2025 (+0.2 TWh i.e. +1.5% year on year). The volume of turnover in rights in energy efficiency certificates was 93,477 toe, an increase of 13.7% year on year.

Revenue of the Group from other fees paid by commodity market participants stood at PLN 22.6 million in 9M 2025 (+PLN 5.0 million i.e. +28.4% year on year). Other fees paid by commodity market participants included fees paid by TGE market participants at PLN 9.5 million, revenue of InfoEngine as a trade operator at PLN 5.8 million, and revenue of IRGiT at PLN 7.3 million in 9M 2025. The year-on-year increase in other fees paid by commodity market participants in 9M 2025 was mainly due to an increase in revenue from the management of resources of the IRGiT guarantee system and a significant increase in revenue from InfoEngine's core business.

Revenue from the operation of the Register of Certificates of Origin and the Register of Guarantees of Origin stood at PLN 14.8 million in 9M 2025 (-PLN 2.2 million i.e. -13.1% year on year). The decrease in revenue is related to the RES property rights segment, mainly due to a decline in the volume of redemptions following a reduction of the level of the redemption obligation of green certificates.

The structure of the Group's statement of financial position is very stable: equity had a predominant share in the Group's sources of financing as at 30 September 2025 and as at 30 September 2024. The company's net working capital, equal to the surplus of current assets over current liabilities or the surplus of non-current capital over non-current assets, was positive at PLN 324.8 million as at 30 September 2025 (-PLN 37.8 million i.e. -10.4% year to date and -PLN 0.7 million i.e. -0.2% year on year).

The balance-sheet total of the Group was PLN 1,333.5 million as at 30 September 2025, representing an increase of PLN 60.2 million (+4.7%) year to date and an increase of PLN 48.7 million i.e. +3.8% year on year.

Non-current assets stood at PLN 864.3 million as at 30 September 2025 (+PLN 56.4 million i.e. +7.0% year to date and +PLN 60.2 million i.e. +7.5% year on year) representing 64.8% of total assets as at 30 September 2025 compared to 63.4% as at 31 December 2024 and 62.6% as at 30 September 2024. The increase in non-current assets in 9M 2025 was driven by the investment in entities measured by the equity method, an increase in deferred tax, and the purchase and modernisation of intangible assets.

{24}------------------------------------------------

Current assets stood at PLN 469.2 million as at 30 September 2025 (+PLN 3.8 million i.e. +0.8% year to date and -PLN 11.5 million i.e. -2.4% year on year) representing 35.2% of total assets as at 30 September 2025 compared to 36.6% as at 31 December 2024 and 37.4% as at 30 September 2024. The increase of current assets year to date was mainly driven by an increase of trade receivables, contract assets and cash combined with a decrease in financial assets measured at amortised cost.

Equity stood at PLN 1,102.4 million as at 30 September 2025 (+PLN 27.2 million i.e. +2.5% year to date and +PLN 63.0 million i.e. +6.1% year on year) representing 82.7% of the Group's total equity and liabilities as at 30 September 2025 compared to 84.4% as at 31 December 2024 and 80.9% as at 30 September 2024. Non-controlling interests increased modestly year to date and stood at PLN 9.6 million as at 30 September 2025.

Non-current liabilities stood at PLN 86.7 million as at 30 September 2025 (-PLN 8.5 million i.e. -9.0% year to date and - PLN 3.5 million i.e. -3.8% year on year) representing 6.5% of total equity and liabilities as at 30 September 2025 compared to 7.5% as at 31 December 2024 and 7.0% as at 30 September 2024.

The biggest line of non-current liabilities is deferred income. Deferred income mainly includes payments under grants received for projects at PLN 35.1 million (-PLN 2.6 million i.e. -6.8% year to date). For more information on grants, see the Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 3.7 and Note 6.4.

Current liabilities stood at PLN 144.5 million as at 30 September 2025 (+PLN 41.5 million i.e. +40.4% year to date and - PLN 10.8 million i.e. -6.9% year on year) representing 10.8% of total equity and liabilities as at 30 September 2025 compared to 8.1% as at 31 December 2024 and 12.1% as at 30 September 2024. The year-to-date increase of current liabilities was driven by an increase in employee benefits payable, an increase in income tax payable, and an increase in contract liabilities.

*Restated

The Group generated positive cash flows from operating activities at PLN 156.8 million in 9M 2025 (+PLN 38.6 million i.e. +32.7 % year on year).

Cash flows from investing activities were positive at PLN 105.9 million vs. negative cash flows at PLN 38.0 million in 9M 2024.

The positive cash flows in 9M 2025 were mainly driven by a surplus of maturing bank deposits and bonds over investments in bank deposits and bonds at PLN 141.1 million in 9M 2025, as well as a much higher dividend received from entities measured with the equity method at PLN 15.9 million compared to PLN 8.8 million in 9M 2024.

The Group's expenditure for intangible assets was PLN 39.7 million (PLN 33.9 million in 9M 2024) and its expenditure for property, plant and equipment was PLN 19.8 million (PLN 6.1 million in 9M 2024). Expenditure for property, plant and equipment and expenditure for intangible assets was related to the implementation of strategic projects in the period ended 30 September 2025 and in the period ended 30 September 2024.

{25}------------------------------------------------

Cash flows from financing activities were negative at PLN 138.8 million, compared to negative PLN 132.2 million in 9M 2024, driven by payment of dividend and leases.

3.5 Financial indicators

As at/Nine-month period ended 30
September (unaudited)
2025 2024
Debt and financing ratios of the Group
Net debt / EBITDA for 12 months (2.0) (2.2)
Debt to equity 2.2% 2.8%
Liquidity ratios
Current liquidity 3.2 3.1
Profitability ratios
EBITDA margin 41.5% 34.2%
Operating profit margin 34.8% 27.6%
Net profit margin 38.5% 32.3%
Cost / income 65.3% 70.6%
ROE 18.1% 15.1%
ROA 14.8% 12.4%

*restated

Net debt = interest-bearing liabilities less liquid assets (as at the balance-sheet date)

Liquid assets = financial assets measured at amortised cost and other financial assets + cash and cash equivalents

EBITDA = GPW Group operating profit plus depreciation/amortisation (for 9 months, net of the share of profit/loss of associates)

Debt to equity ratio = interest-bearing liabilities / equity (as at the balance-sheet date)

Current liquidity = current assets / current liabilities (as at the balance-sheet date)

Coverage ratio of interest costs on the bond issue = EBITDA / interest cost on bonds (interest paid and accrued for a 9-month period)

EBITDA margin = EBITDA / GPW Group sales revenue (for a 9-month period)

Operating profit margin = operating profit / GPW Group sales revenue (for a 9-month period)

Net profit margin = net profit / GPW Group sales revenue (for a 9-month period)

Cost / income = GPW Group operating expenses / GPW Group sales revenue (for a 9-month period)

ROE = GPW Group net profit (for a 12-month period) / average equity at the beginning and at the end of the 12-month period

Net debt to EBITDA was negative as at 30 September 2025 as liquid assets significantly exceeded interest-bearing liabilities. The debt to equity ratio decreased due to a decrease of interest-bearing liabilities and an increase in equity.

Current liquidity remained stable year on year as current assets changed at the same rate as current liabilities.

The EBITDA margin increased sharply year on year due to a higher increase of sales revenue (+17.2%) in relation to the increase of expenses (+8.5%). The operating profit margin and the net profit margin also increased as a result of a significant increase of the Group's operating profit year on year. The cost/income ratio decreased year on year as a result of those changes. ROE and ROA increased as the increase in net profit was greater than the increase in average equity and average assets.

{26}------------------------------------------------

4. Seasonality and cyclicity of operations

4.1 Trading on the financial market

Share prices and turnover value are significantly influenced by local, regional, and global trends impacting the capital markets, which determines the number and size of new issues of financial instruments and the activity of investors on GPW. As a result, the revenue of the Group is cyclical in the long term; however, no standard seasonality is observed in this market.

4.2 Trading on the commodity market

Trading in certificates of origin on TGE is subject to seasonality. The volume of turnover on the property rights market operated by TGE and the activity of participants of the Register of Certificates of Origin are largely determined by the obligation imposed on energy companies which sell electricity to final consumers and have to cancel a certain quantity of certificates of origin in relation to the volume of electricity sold in the preceding year. The percentage of certificates of origin which must be cancelled is fixed for every year in laws and regulations of the Minister of Climate and Environment.

According to the Renewable Energy Sources Law, the obligation has to be performed until 30 June (of each year in relation of electricity sold in the preceding year). As a result, turnover in the first half of the year is relatively higher than in the second half of the year. The Ministry of Climate and Environment has set the obligation to redeem green certificates at 9% for the next three years, i.e. 2026 to 2028.

Trade in electricity on the Commodity Forward Instruments Market operated by TGE is not spread equally throughout the year. It is seasonal in that it depends on hedging strategies of large market players and it is typically lower in H1. However, seasonality may be distorted because the strategies of market players also depend on the financial standing of companies, regulatory changes, and current energy and gas prices.

5. Unusual factors and events impacting the GPW Group's results in Q3 2025

The Group does not identify any significant factors or unusual events that would affect the GPW Group's result for the first 9 months of 2025.

6. Unusual factors and events impacting the results in at least the next quarter

6.1 Main threats and risks

The operation of the GPW Group is exposed to external risks related to the market, legal, and regulatory environment, as well as internal risks related to operating activities. With a view to its strategic objectives, the GPW Group actively manages its business risks in order to mitigate or eliminate their potential adverse impact on the Group's results.

Detailed information on the risks listed is provided in the Management Board Report on the Activity of the Parent Company and the Group of Giełda Papierów Wartościowych w Warszawie S.A. for 2024, Note 4 Risk Management. Supplementary information is provided below.

The Group considers the following risks in each category to be objectively the most material; however, the order in which they are presented does not reflect the materiality or scale of their impact on the activity of the Group. Additional risks, which are currently not identified or are considered to be immaterial, may in the future have an adverse impact on the activity of the Group, its financial standing and business results.

{27}------------------------------------------------

Business risk3 :

  • Risks of the geopolitical and economic situation globally
  • Risk of the economic situation in Poland
  • Risk of concentration of trade and dependence of a large part of the Group's sales revenue on trade in shares of a limited number of issuers and trade in futures by a limited number of Exchange Members
  • Risk of concentration of trade due to dependence of a large part of the Group's revenue from derivatives on trade in WIG20 futures
  • Risk of termination of the agreement under which the TBSP market was selected as the reference market
  • Risk related to operations in the stock exchange and alternative trading platform sector
  • Risk related to the Group's failure to implement its strategy
  • Risk of price competition
  • Risk of technological changes, including the risk of delaying the implementation of the WATS system
  • Risk of provision of capital market indices and benchmarks
  • Risk related to the development of WIBID and WIBOR Reference Rates and RFR reference rates4
  • Risk related to a decrease in the scope of application of interest rate benchmarks
  • Geopolitical and business risks related to the operation of the Armenia Securities Exchange
  • Risk of OFEs having to sell off assets listed on GPW to provide liquidity required by the "safety slider" mechanism

Operational risk:5

  • Risk of attracting and retaining qualified staff of the Group
  • Risk of industrial disputes
  • ICT and cyber risks
  • Risk of cyber attack
  • Risk of trading systems malfunction
  • Risk of dependence of the Group's activity on third parties
  • Risk of insufficient insurance cover

Legal risk:

  • Regulatory risk related to national law
  • Regulatory risk related to Union law
  • Risk of amendments to and interpretations of tax regulations
  • Risk of ineffective protection of intellectual property
  • Risk of the Group's potential infringement on intellectual property rights of third parties

Compliance risk:

  • Risk of non-compliance with regulatory requirements and recommendations of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority applicable to the activity of the Group
  • Risks related to the requirements of financial and market institutions with regard to climate change mitigation and adaptation and sustainability disclosures
  • Risk of potential breach of competition laws

Reputation risk

ESG risk

AML/CFT risk

5 The Group no longer identifies operational risk related to the outsourcing of certain services.

3 The risk of concentration of turnover in the conditional transactions segment on the TBSP market (disclosed in previous reports) was significantly mitigated by increasing the number of market participants and diversifying turnover in this area.

4 This risk includes the Risk associated with the development of the WIRON Index and the WIRON Composite Index Family (disclosed in previous reports).

{28}------------------------------------------------

Financial risk:

  • Market risk
  • Credit risk
  • Liquidity risk

Risks related to technological changes, including the risk of delay in the roll-out of WATS

The delay in the roll-out of WATS requires continued maintenance of the UTP production trading system and its related infrastructure. The UTP system is an older generation environment and can no longer be freely developed in response to dynamic market changes. Until WATS goes live, GPW will continue to operate the stable UTP system, maintaining the existing business continuity procedures. However, the delay in the roll-out of WATS postpones a significant technological change for GPW i.e. the launch of the new system and requires continued costs of technical support for UTP and the related infrastructure.

Risk of pension funds having to sell assets listed on GPW in order to maintain the liquidity required by the phase-out system ("safety slider")

The assets of Open-ended Pension Funds (OFE) are mainly shares listed on the domestic regulated market. Due to currently applicable regulations and the unfavourable demographic structure of fund members, negative flows between OFEs and the Social Security Institution (ZUS) are steadily increasing.

Regulatory risk related to European Union law

A risk to TGE's strategy and business performance in the electricity spot market comes with the proposed amendment to the CACM 2.0 Regulation. This legislative change as well as other expected attempts at regulatory action in the European electricity exchange market may affect TGE's competitiveness in the electricity market and reduce its ability to deliver the expected business performance.

6.2 External factors

Impact of the armed conflict in Ukraine on the GPW Group's business

The GPW Group took into account the recommendations of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority of 25 February 2022 addressed to issuers in connection with the political and economic situation in Ukraine and the introduction of the second alert level (BRAVO) and the second CRP alert level (BRAVO-CRP) throughout Poland by the Prime Minister. Due to the ongoing war in Ukraine, the GPW Group identifies the following risks to its operations:

  • Risk of withdrawal of funds by investors
  • Risks associated with an above-average load on the trading system
  • Risk of money laundering or terrorist financing and risk of breach of sanctions
  • Risk of increased cyber threats
  • Risk of bankruptcy or deterioration of transparency of companies participating in the WIG-Ukraine index
  • Risk of loss of representativeness of indices that include Ukrainian companies
  • Risk of obstruction of gas supplies to Poland.

GPW and its subsidiaries are monitoring the situation relating to the war in Ukraine on an ongoing basis and taking measures to manage business continuity.

The war risks are described extensively in the Management Board Report on the Activity of the Parent Company and the Group of Giełda Papierów Wartościowych w Warszawie S.A. for 2024, Note 4.2.2.

Other factors which may impact the GPW Group's results in the coming quarters

  • The manufacturing business cycle as measured, among others, by the PMI. Any time the PMI falls below 50 points, it would mean a contraction in manufacturing activity. This would result in companies being more cautious about capital expenditure and expansion plans, which would lead to a languishing market for equity offerings (IPOs/SPOs). In addition, shares of listed companies, especially those in the manufacturing segment, would be under pressure on valuations if global/regional factors (financing costs/geopolitical tensions) further exacerbated the sentiment.
  • A decline, particularly a sudden drop, in TFI assets invested in equity/mixed funds could be perceived by the market as a signal to start a wider wave of redemptions, which could lead to a snowball effect: rising redemptions

{29}------------------------------------------------

force an accelerated sell-off of shares, which in turn leads to further price declines and liquidity deterioration. The result can be sharp fluctuations in valuations, reduced investor confidence, and problems in restoring the demand/supply balance in the market.

• Net inflows into PPK defined-date funds are successively increasing the pool of capital invested in exchangetraded instruments. However, it is important to make efforts (including legislative efforts) to diversify demand streams. If the growth rate of PPK assets slows down (e.g. through lower employee participation, poorer market performance or regulatory changes), the market may suffer from a lack of a stable, long-term purchase stream.

6.3 Internal factors

Internal factors and activities which may impact the GPW Group's results in the coming quarters include:

  • expanding the range of investment products
  • continuing cost optimisation and improving operational efficiency,
  • development of technology platforms to support GPW Group operations.
