* During the present period, three subsidiaries were included in consolidation that previously had not been consolidated due to immateriality:
The table above includes the following changes in the structure of PGE Group companies subject to full consolidation which took place during the period ended June 30, 2018:
As a result of the purchase of shares in PGE Energia Ciepła S.A. and KOGENERACJA, equity attributable to PGE Group increased by PLN 34 million, while equity attributable to non-controlling interests decreased by PLN 142 million.
Furthermore, on June 20, 2018 the management boards of PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A. and PGE Energia Ciepła S.A. agreed and signed a "Demerger plan for PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A.," pursuant to which the following branches of PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna will be carved out from PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A. and into PGE Energia Ciepła S.A.:
The demerger processis expected to be accomplished at the turn of 2018 and 2019.
The transaction between PGE Polska Grupa Energetyczna S.A. and EDF International SAS and EDF Investment II B.V. concerning the sale of EDF's assets in Poland pursuant to a Conditional Share Sale Agreement of May 19, 2017, was finalised on November 13, 2017. Initial recognition of the acquisition of EDF's assets was done for the purposes of the consolidated financial statements for 2017. In the present period, a process consisting of the valuation of tangible and intangible assets of the acquired entities was completed, so that the final accounting forthe assets and liabilities of the acquired entitiesisincluded in these financialstatements.
The following table presents a summary of the recognised assets and liabilities as at the acquisition date.

The goodwill recognised by PGE Group arises from the fact that in accordance with PGE Group's assumptions discounted cash flows from operating activitiesthat will be generated by the acquired assets will be higherthan the net asset value of the acquired companies, established in accordance with IFRS 3. Goodwill was allocated jointly to all of the acquired district heating assetsthat constitute a part of the Conventional Generation segment.
The goodwillrecognised does not constitute goodwill fortax purposes.
Due to fair value measurement of assets and final recognition of the acquisition, the net income for the period from November 14 to December 31, 2017 was adjusted by PLN (62)million (of which PLN (60) million was attributable to shareholders of the parent and PLN (2) million to non-controlling interests). The changed data for the comparative period is presented in note 4 to these financial statements.
These financialstatements are prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting and in the scope required under the Minister of Finance Regulation of March 29, 2018 on current and periodic information provided by issuers of securities and conditions of recognition as equivalent information required by the law of a non-Member State (Official Journal 2018, items 512 and 685).
IFRS comprise standards and interpretations, approved by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee ("IFRIC").
The functional currency of the parent company and the presentation currency of these consolidated financial statements is Polish Zloty ("PLN"). All amounts are in PLN millions(PLNm), unlessindicated otherwise.

PGE Group intends to adopt the above mentioned new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations published by the International Accounting Standards Board but not yet effective at the reporting date, when they become effective.
The new standard changes principles for the recognition of contracts which meet the criteria of lease. The main change is to eliminate the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leasesin the lessee's accounts. All contracts which meet the criteria of a lease will be recognised as a finance lease. Adoption of the standard will have the following effect:
PGE is currently analysing the potential impact of IFRS 16 on itsfuture financialstatements. The analysisfocuses particularly on the issue of potential impact of the standard on the receipt of free perpetual usufruct rights to land, easement contracts and road lane occupation contracts. Analysis of the standard has not been finished yet.
The otherstandards and amendmentsshould not have a majorimpact on PGE Group'sfuture financialstatements.
In the process of applying accounting rules with regards to the below issues, management has made judgements and estimates that affect the amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements, including in other explanatory information. The estimates are based on the best knowledge of the Management Board relating to current and future operations and events in particular areas. Detailed information on the assumptions made is presented below orin respective explanatory notes.
No significant changesin the value of estimates having impact on these consolidated financialstatementstook place.
Property, plant and equipment is PGE Group's most significant group of assets. Due to changeable macroeconomic conditions PGE Group regularly verifies the impairment indicators of its assets. When assessing the market situation PGE Group uses both its own analytical tools and independent think tanks'support.
In previous reporting periods, PGE Group recognized substantial impairment allowances of property, plant and equipment of Conventional Generation segment and the Renewables segment. Key assumptions and results of impairment test conducted in 2017 are described in PGE Group's consolidated financialstatementsfor 2017.
In the current reporting period, the Group analysed impairment indications and identified factors that could result in changes to the asset valuesin the above segments.
Following analysis of these factors, the Group conducted asset impairment tests as at May 31, 2018, recognised as at June 30, 2018, for the Conventional Generation segment, in which goodwill is assigned, and forthe Renewablessegment.
The key price assumptions, i.e. the price of electricity, CO2 emission allowances, hard coal, gas, and assumptionsrelated to production at most of the Group'sinstallations were derived from a study prepared by an independent expert.
Electricity price forecasts assume growth in market prices by several percent during the forecast period, after a surge in 2020 in relation to 2019 prices.
Price forecastsfor CO2 emission allowancessee dynamic market price growth in successive years covered by the forecast.
Hard coal price forecasts see growth in market prices by several percent annually during the period to 2025 and 2-3% growth annually after 2025.
Gas price forecasts see average annual growth in the period to 2022 at approx. 7% and growth of approx. 4% annually in the years thereafter.
The forecast for prices of energy certificates of origin was drafted by PGE S.A.'s team of internal experts, based on a demand-supply balance. It was assumed that auctions will be the dominantsupport mechanism. The forecast for prices of renewable energy certificates of origin assume growth until 2021. In later years, prices will be in decline until 2025 (except for 2023) and willremain steady thereafter. For production covered by contracts the prices and settlement terms used in these contracts during their validity were adopted. As compared to the assumptions adopted in 2017, price forecasts for certificates of origin for 2018-2019 were updated so as to adapt them to current market conditions.
The forecast for revenue from the capacity market from 2021 was prepared by PGE S.A.'s internal team based on expert assumptions, including results of the British capacity market, among other things. These assumptions remain largely unchanged as compared to the tests carried out in 2017.
Revenue from regulatory system services was based on existing bilateral agreements with PSE S.A.
Unit availability was estimated based on repair plans, taking into accountstatistical failure rates.
Impairment tests were conducted on May 31, 2018, on cash generating unit("CGU") basis by establishing their recoverable amounts. Determining fair value for very large groups of assets for which there is no active market and there are few comparable transactions is very difficult in practice. In the case of power plants and minesfor which a value on the local marketshould be determined there are no observable fair values. Given the above, the recoverable value of the analysed assets was estimated on the basis of discounted net cash flow method which relied on financial projections prepared for the period from June 2018 to 2030. For generating units with expected periods of economic useful lives in excess of 2030, a residual value was determined for the remaining service time. According to the Group, financial projections longer than five years are justified due to significant and long-term effects of projected changes in the regulatory environment. Using longer projections, recoverable amounts may be determined more reliably.
Presented below are the key assumptions having impact on estimates of the useful value of CGU:
given the technological and economic links between these branches,
Certain significant regulatory assumptions adopted for impairment tests are outside of PGE Group's control and their realisation is not guaranteed. This especially applies to issues concerning the final shape of the Polish capacity market, support for cogeneration after 2018 and the allocation of free CO2 emission allowances after 2020. In these areas, the Group uses existing assumptions as to the development of regulations that carry risk. Changes in these regulations in the future versus PGE's existing expectations might have an impact on the recoverable amounts of generating assetsin the Conventional Generation segment.
Nonetheless, according to the Group, the adoption of such assumptions is justified given the expected changes in the regulatory framework. The assumptions that are reflected in cash flows constitute a real scenario in terms of method and period, according to the Group. However, it cannot be ruled out that the finalshape and period forthese solutions will be different from the assumptions.
Impairment tests in the Conventional Generation segment were carried out for two CGU groups: generating assets owned by PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A. and separately for PGE Energia Ciepła S.A. and its subsidiaries. As explained in note 1.4 to these financial statements, as a result of the acquisition of EDF's assets, goodwill arose and was subsequently allocated to the acquired heating assets.
As at May 31, 2018, the value of tested property, plant and equipment and intangible assets at PGE GiEK S.A. amounted to PLN 4,223 million. As a result of the asset impairment test, the Group estimated the useful value of the assets being test at PLN 36,626 million, in connection with which it concluded that there is no need to recognise orreverse impairment allowances on these assets.
As at May 31, 2018, the value of tested property, plant and equipment and intangible assets at PGE Energia Ciepła S.A. and its subsidiaries, concerning heating assets belonging to the Conventional Generation segment, amounted to PLN 4,686 million (including PLN 189 million in goodwill). As a result of the asset impairment test, the Group estimated the useful value of the assets being test at PLN 5,289million, in connection with which it concluded that there is no need to recognise impairment allowances on these assets.
Impairment tests were conducted as at May 31, 2018, on cash generating unit basis by establishing their recoverable amounts. The recoverable value of the analysed assets was estimated on the basis of discounted net cash flow method which relied on the financial projections prepared for the assumed useful life of the particular CGU in the case of wind farms or for 2018-2037 in the case of other CGUs. According to the Group, financial projectslonger than five years are justified because the property, plant and equipment used by the tested entities have significant longer useful lives and also due to significant and long-term effects of projected changes in the regulatory environment.
Presented below are the key assumptions having impact on estimates of the useful value of CGU:
As at May 31, 2018, the value of tested property, plant and equipment and intangible assets at PGE Energetyka Odnawialna amounted to PLN 2,289 million. As a result of the asset impairment test, the Group estimated the useful value of the assets being test at PLN 5,238 million, in connection with which it concluded that there is no need to recognise or reverse impairment allowances on these assets.
The accounting principles (policies) applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in preparing the Group's consolidated financial statements for 2017, except as stated below. The following amendments to IFRSs are applied in these financial statementsin line with their effective dates. Amendments relating to IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 as well as a change in method of outgoing for CO2 emission allowances are described below. The other amendments did not have material impact on the presented and disclosed financial information orthey were not applicable to the Group'stransactions:
IFRS 9 replaced IAS MSR 39 Financial instruments: recognition and measurement and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. IFRS addressed three areas related to financial instruments: classification and measurement, impairment and hedge accounting.
Financial assets are subject to classification in the following categories of financial instruments:
The classification of financial assetsis based on the business model and characteristics of cash flows.
A debt instrument is measured at amortised cost if both ofthe following conditions are met:
A debt instrument is measured at FVTOCI if both of the following conditions are met:
All other debt instruments which are not meet above, must be measured at fair value through profit orloss(FVTPL).
All equity investments are measured at fair value. If an equity investment is not held for trading, the Group can make an irrevocable decision to recognise changes at FVTOCI if the instrument is not held for trading. For equity instruments held for trading, changesin fair value are recognised in profit orloss.
Allstandard transactions of purchase orsell of financial assets are recognised at the transaction date, i.e. at the date on which the entity committed to purchase the asset. Standard transactions of purchase or sell of financial assets are transactions which delivery of the asset is explicitly stated by law or customsin a given market.
An impairment model is based on expected credit losses and itsscope coversthe following:
The Group applies requirements concerning impairment in order to recognise and measure impairment on expected credit losses on these financial assets that are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. A loss allowances is recognised in other comprehensive income and does notreduce the balance sheet value of the financial asset in the statement of financial position.
With the exception of purchased or originated credit impaired financial assets, expected credit losses are required to be measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:
The impairment of a financial asset if the credit risk of that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition, regardless of whether it was measured separately or collectively, should take into account all rational and documentable information, including forward-looking data.
The Group appliesthe following rulesfor estimating and recognising the loss allowances on financial assets:
The Group classified financial liabilitiesin one of the following categories:
After analysis, the Group decided not to implement the changesresulting from IFRS 9 regarding hedge accounting from January 1, 2018.
The Group applied IFRS 9 from January 1, 2018, withoutrestating its comparative data.
The Group analysed the business model as at the first date of application of IFRS 9, i.e. January 1, 2018, and subsequently applied retrospectively, regardless of what business model was used in previousreporting periods on these assetsfor which recognition had not ceased prior to January 1, 2018. The Group analysed compliance with SPPI criteria based on facts and circumstances at the moment of the initialrecognition of financial assets.
If PGE Group had applied IFRS 9 in its financial statements for 2017, impairment losses on financial assets as at December 31, 2017, would have been approx. PLN 4 million higher. Equity as at December 31, 2017 would have decreased by about PLN 4 million gross(no impact on deferred tax).
Due to the insignificant impact of the new standard, its effects were not recognised in retained earnings as at of January 1, 2018. Starting from January 1, 2018, PGE Group recognises expected credit lossesin accordance with IFRS 9 requirements.
Changes in the classification of financial instruments resulted in the change of name of several items from the statement of financial position no amounts were reclassified between items.
IFRS 15 repeals IAS 11 Construction Contracts, IAS 18 Revenue and related interpretations and applies to all contracts with customers, with the exception of those that fall under the scope of other standards. The new standard establishes the Five Step Model for recognising revenue from contracts with customers. According to IFRS 15, revenue is recognised in the amount that - according to the entity's expectations- is due in exchange for delivery of the goods orservicesto the customer.
Revenue is recognised so as to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
The Group recognisesrevenue from a contract with a client only if all of the following criteria are met:
Upon contract execution, the Group analyses the goods or services covered by the contract with the client and identifies as a performance obligation all commitmentsto provide the client with:
The Group recognisesrevenue when the performance obligation concerning the goods and servicesis met (or is in the process of being met). The transfer of the asset occurs when the client obtains control over the asset, i.e. gains the ability to directly manage the asset and obtain largely all other benefitsfrom it.
The Group transfers control over goods orservices overtime and thussatisfiesthe performance obligation and recognisesrevenue over time if one of the following conditionsis met:
For each performance obligation over time, the Group recognises revenue over time, measuring the degree of performance of this obligation. The aim of this measurement is to establish progress in performing this obligation to transfer control over goods or services promised to the client (i.e. degree of obligation performance).
The Group applied IFRS 15 from the date it enters into force, i.e. January 1, 2018, without restating its comparative data. In connection with this, as at January 1, 2018, the Group recognised PLN 340 million in retained earnings, as a one-off settlement of revenue from connection fees, which prior to entry into force of IFRIC 18 Transfers of Assets from Customers, i.e. prior to July 1, 2009, had been recognised as deferred income and were settled in time, whereas under IFRS 15 they should be accounted for on a one-off basis when the connection is made.
The impact of applying IFRS 15 on the Group's consolidated financialstatementsin the first half of 2018, compared to IAS 11, IAS 18 and the related interpretations, is presented below.

The transition fee and renewables fee, which are collected from end users by PGE Dystrybucja S.A. and PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A., and then passed on to the Transmission System Operator ("TSO"), constitute a sort of fee collected from electricity end users, which is why in accordance with IFRS 15 they should not be treated asrevenue. From the beginning of 2018, these fees are recognised on a net basis. The renewablesfee for 2018 iszero.
For gas distribution and transmission services, PGE Obrót S.A. serves as intermediary and therefore has no influence over the key parameters of the services - this is governed by existing regulations concerning terms for the distribution of gas fuel. PGE Obrót is not responsible forfailure to perform, orincorrect performance, of framework agreementsto provide gasfuel distribution and transmission services. It also does not bear the risk ofstoring inventories prior to thisservice being provided to the client. It has no influence over the prices of distribution and transmission services. Given the above, in accordance with IFRS 15, revenue and costs related to distribution and transmission services are recognised in net valuesfrom the beginning of 2018.
The Group decided not to apply early any other standards, interpretations or amendments that were published but are not yet effective.
In previous reporting periods, PGE Group applied the first in, first out method (FIFO) to CO2 emission allowances. The accounting method for CO2 emission allowances has a direct impact on the measurement of a provision for shortages of free emission allowances, which is created in an amount that is equal to the best estimate of costs necessary to perform the redemption obligation with respect to CO2 emission allowances. PGE Group purchases CO2 emission allowances when sales are contracted, i.e. in a great majority of cases priorto actual emission. Because CO2 emissions concerning contracted sales are purchased both in derivative transactions and on-going, the FIFO method did not reflect the commercial substance faithfully how PGE Group secures its demand for allowances. Given the above, PGE Group voluntarily changed rules for CO2 accounting to the detailed identification method. Because when a transaction to purchase CO2 emission allowances, the Group allocates a given bath to the given period and this method credibly presents the transaction's economic substance.
If PGE Group did not changed its accounting policy in thisscope, the period ended on and as at June 30, 2018 it would result in:
Because during previous periods the FIFO method presented the actual disposal of emission allowance, a change in the accounting policy did not have an impact on the financial results presented in previous reporting periods and does not require restatement of comparative data.
Change in presentation of employee benefits concerning accrued leave and bonuses
In the present period, the Group decided to change the way in which it presents employee benefits concerning accrued leave, bonuses and similar from the item "provisions" to the item "other non-financial liabilities." According to the Group, this method of presentation better meetsthe requirements of IFRS 19 Employee Benefits.
PGE Group restated its comparative data presented in the statement of financial position. The restatement is presented in the table below. Information presented in notesto these financialstatements was also restated accordingly.
Final accounting forthe acquisition of EDF's assetsin Poland
As described in note 1.4 to these financial statements, during the analysed period PGE Group conducted a final accounting for the acquisition of the assets and liabilities of EDF's Polish companies. Fair value measurement of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and investment properties by external appraisers resulted in changes in values from the preliminary accounting for the acquisition as of November 13, 2017 and resultsforthe period from November 14 to December 31, 2017.
Given the above reasons, comparative data for previous periods wasrestated asshown below.

The principles for valuation of inventories, derivatives, shares and instruments not quoted on active markets, for which fair value may not be determined reliably, are the same as presented in the financialstatementsforthe year ended December 31, 2017.
The Group measures derivatives at fair value using valuation models for financial instruments based on publicly available exchange rates, interest rates, discount curves in particular currencies (applicable also for commodities which prices are denominated in these currencies) derived from active markets. The fair value of derivatives is determined based on discounted future cash flows from transactions, calculated on the difference between the forward rate and transaction price. Forward exchange rates are not modelled as separate risk factor, but are derived from the spotrate and appropriate forward interestrate forforeign currenciesin relation to PLN.

During the current and comparative reporting periods, there have been no transfers of financial instruments between the first and the second level of fair value hierarchy.
PGE Group companies conduct their business activities based on relevant concessions, including primarily concession on: production, trading and distribution of electricity, generation, transmission and distribution of heat, granted by the President of Energy Regulatory Office and concessions for the extraction of lignite deposits, granted by the Minister of the Environment. Concessions, as a rule, are being issued forthe period between 10 and 50 years. PGE Group's key concessions expire in the years 2020-2038.
Relevant assets are assigned to the held concessions on lignite mining and generation and distribution of electricity and heat, which was presented in detailed information on operating segments. For its concessions concerning electricity and heat the Group incurs annual charges dependent on the level of turnover, whereasfor conducting licensed extraction of lignite the exploitation charges as well asfees forthe use of mining are borne. The exploitation charges depend on the currentrate and the volume of the extraction.
PGE Group presents information on operating segments in the current and comparative reporting period in accordance with IFRS 8 Operating Segments. PGE Group'segment reporting is based on the following businesssegments:
Organisation and management over PGE Group is based on segment reporting separated by nature of the products and services provided. Each segment represents a strategic business unit, offering different products and serving different markets. Assignment of particular entities to operating segments is described in note 1.3 of these consolidated financial statements. As a rule, inter-segment transactions are disclosed as if they were concluded with third parties – under market conditions. When analysing the results of particular businesssegmentsthe management of PGE Group draws attention primarily to EBITDA reached.
In November 2017, PGE Group purchased EDF's assets in Poland. Assignment of particular assets to operating segments is described in note 1.3 of these consolidated financial statements. Segment results for the first half of 2017 do not include the assets acquired from EDF. The results of the acquired assets are primarily visible in the Conventional Generation segment, as shown in chapter 4 of the Management Board report on the Group's activities.
Main factors affecting the demand for electricity and heat are: weather conditions – air temperature, wind force, rainfall, socioeconomic factors – number of energy consumers, energy carriers prices, growth of GDP and technological factors – advances in technology, product manufacturing technology. Each of these factors has an impact on technical and economic conditions of production, distribution and transmission of energy carriers, thusinfluence the results obtained by PGE Group.
The level of electricity sales is variable throughout a year and depends especially on weather conditions - air temperature, length of the day. Growth in electricity demand is particularly evident in winter periods, while lower demands are observed during the summer months. Moreover, seasonal changes are evident among selected groups of end users. Seasonality effects are more significant for householdsthan forthe industrialsector.
In the Renewables segment, electricity is generated from natural resources such as water, wind and sun. Weather conditions are an important factor affecting electricity generation in thissegment.
Sales of heat depend in particular on air temperature and are higherin winter and lowerin summer.

The increase in revenue from sales in the period ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same period in the previous year, resulted mainly from the recognition of revenue generated by EDF's companiesin Poland acquired in 2017.
The acquired assets had the largest impact on growth in revenue from the sale of electricity, heat, fuels and energy origin rights.
Correction of revenue from LTC compensations results from an update of price paths for electricity, CO2 and gas over a long-term horizon to the end of the programme, i.e. to 2024.

The restatement of data results from the final accounting for the acquisition of new companies and is described in note 1.4 to the consolidated financialstatements.
CO2 emission rights (EUA) are received power generating units belonging to the PGE Group, which are covered with the Act dated June 12, 2015 on a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading. Starting from 2013, only part of emission rightsfor production of heat will be granted unconditionally, while for production of electricity there is, as a rule, lack of free of charge EUA. Pursuant to art. 10c of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community, the derogation is possible providing the realization of investment tasks included in National Investment Plan, which allow to reduce CO2 emission. The condition under which free of charge CO2 emission rights can be obtained is presentation of factual-financialstatementsfrom realization of tasksincluded in National Investment Plan.
In September 2017, PGE Group submitted another report on investments included in the National Investment Plan in order to obtain CO2 EUA allocations concerning electricity generated in 2017. The allowances were issued in April 2018 and were used to cover CO2 emissionsfor 2017 (15 million EUAs).
In the case of EUAs for CO2 emissions related to district heating, the allocation schedule is different - in February 2018 EUAs were allocated forthe coverage of CO2 emissionsfor 2018 (2 million EUAs).

In the current period, PGE Paliwa sp.z o.o. in orderto secure commodity risk related to the price of imported coal executed a number of transactionsto hedge thisrisk using commodity swapsfor coal. The number and value of these transactionsis correlated to the quantity and value of imported coal. Changesin fair value are recognised in profit orloss.
PGE Paliwa Sp. z o.o. measures all of its sales and purchase contracts with physical delivery of coal at fair value using the trader-broker model. As at the reporting date, the Company held contractsthat would be performed on December 31, 2019.
In 2017, PGE S.A. executed an IRS transaction to hedge interest rates on a credit facility with a nominal value of PLN 500 million. To recognise thisIRS transaction, the Company uses hedge accounting.
In 2016, PGE S.A. executed IRS transactionsto hedge interest rates on credit facilities with a total nominal value of PLN 4,630 million. To recognise these IRS transactions, the Company uses hedge accounting.
The impact of hedge accounting is presented in note 17.2 to these consolidated financialstatements.
In 2014, PGE S.A. concluded IRS transactions hedging the interest rate on issued bonds with a nominal value of PLN 1 billion. Payments arising from IRS transactions are correlated with interest payments on bonds. Changes in the fair value of IRS transactions are fully recognised in profit orloss.

In connection with loans received from PGE Sweden AB (publ), PGE S.A. concluded CCIRS transactions, hedging both the exchange rate and interest rate. In these transactions, banks - counterparties pay PGE S.A. interest based on a fixed rate in EUR and PGE S.A. pays interest based on a fixed rate in PLN.

The liabilities represent the value of possible future reimbursements of funds received by PGE Group companies from environmental funds for the particular investments. The funds will be reimbursed, if investments for which they were granted, will not bring the expected environmental effect.
The contingent liability is mainly related to the dispute with WorleyParsons. WorleyParsons made a claim for payment of PLN 59 million due to the claimant and for the return of the amount that in the claimant's opinion was unduly collected by PGE EJ 1 sp. z o.o. from a bank guarantee, and later extended the claim to PLN 104 million (i.e. by PLN 45 million). On March 31, 2018, the company filed a response to WorleyParsons' expanded claim. The Group does not accept the claim and regards its possible admission by the court as unlikely.
In October 2017, PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A. and PGE Energia Natury sp. z o.o. (currently acquired by PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A.) received lawsuitsin which Energa-Obrót S.A. demand the annulment of a legal relation that were to arise as a result of the execution of an agreement to sell property rights resulting from electricity origin certificates at FW Kisielice in 2009, FW Koniecwałd (Malbork) and FW Galicja. Energa-Obrót S.A.'s demands in all of the lawsuits are based on the accusation that executive (agreements to sell specific property rights) were executed in a way that circumvented the Public Procurement Law. Alternatively, if the Agreement is considered as an agreement on award of a public procurement, Energa-Obrót S.A. was claiming absolute invalidity of the Agreements due to them being executed in a way that circumvented the Public Procurement Law. In November 2017, PGE companies filed responses to the lawsuits, in which they indicated that the accusations made by Energa Obrót S.A. are groundless.
These proceedings are in progress. In the cases involving FW Koniecwałd (Malbork) and FW Galicja, the Court referred the parties for mediation. In the FW Kisielice case, on April 25, 2018 the first hearing was held, in which the Court, at both of the parties' request, referred the partiesfor mediation for a period of three months and deferred the hearing to November 14, 2018.
In addition, through motions filed in September 2017, Energa Obrót S.A. summoned PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A. and PGE Energia Natury sp. z o.o. (currently acquired by PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A.) for amicable resolution of disputes for the payment of claims totalling PLN 71 million concerning considerations paid on the basis of invalid contracts from 2009. No agreement was reached during meetings held in November and December 2017. In connection with this, the PLN 71 million claim is presented as a contingent liability. The Group does not accept the claim and regardsits possible admission by the court as unlikely.
Claiming invalidity of the 2009 contracts, Energa Obrót S.A. refused to purchase property rights resulting from the production of renewable electricity at FW Kisielice, FW Koniecwałd (Malbork) and FW Galicja, which constituted a breach of the contracts and resulted in contractual penalties of PLN 30 million being imposed (recognised as revenue in 2017 of PLN 16 million and PLN 14 million in the present period). In the case of refusal to pay these contractual penalties, PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A. intends to seek their payment in court proceedings. On April 25, 2018, during the first hearing, PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A. filed a counterclaim for payment of the principal amount together with statutory late interest for contractual penalties imposed in connection with Energa Obrót S.A.'s failure to perform the contract related to FW Kisielice. Having referred the parties for mediation, the Court did not set a deadline for Energa Obrót S.A. to respond to the counterclaim.
Estimated volume of the green certificates covered by the contracts with Energa Obrót S.A. amounts to 783 thousand MWh. This volume was calculated based on the volume of production in the period from July 2017 (FW Koniecwałd/Malbork) or from August 2017 (otherfarms) to the end of the expected support periodsfor each of the farms.
These liabilities for the most part present bank guarantees provided as collateral for stock market transactions resulting from membership in the Stock Exchange Clearing House. As at June 30, 2018, the total amount of bank guarantees was PLN 531 million (PLN 215 million in the comparative period).
Other contingent liabilities comprise the value of potential claim from WorleyParsons of PLN 33 million, which was described above, as well as PLN 40 million related to risk of additional costsrelated to PGE Group's debt financing programmes.
As described in note 18.5 of these financial statements, PGE Group recognises provision for disputes under court proceedings, concerning non-contractual use of properties for distribution activities. In addition, in PGE Group, there are disputes at an earlier stage of proceedings and it cannot be excluded that the number and value ofsimilar disputes will grow in the future.
According to the concluded agreements on the purchase of fuels(mainly coal and gas), PGE Group companies are obliged to collect the minimum volume of fuels and not to exceed the maximum level of collection of gas fuel in particular hours and months. Failure to collect a minimum volume of fuels specified in the contracts, may result in a necessity to pay some extra fee (in case of gas fuel, the volume not collected by power plants but paid up may be collected within the next three contractual years).
In PGE Group's opinion, the terms and conditions of fuel deliveries to its power generating units as described above do not differ from terms and conditions of fuel deliveriesto other power generating units on the Polish market.
As at the reporting date, PGE Group held PLN 33 million in contingent receivables related to non-balancing of purchase and sale of energy on the domestic market (PLN 10 million in the comparative period).
Former shareholders of PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka S.A. are presenting to the courts motions to summon PGE S.A. to a conciliation hearing concerning payment of compensation for incorrect (in their opinion) determination of the exchange ratio of shares of PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka S.A. into shares of PGE S.A. during a consolidation process that took place in 2010. The total value of claims resulting from summons to a conciliation hearing directed by the former shareholders of PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka S.A. amounts to over PLN 10million.
Regardless of the above, on November 12, 2014 Socrates Investment S.A. (an entity which purchased claims from former PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka S.A. shareholders) filed a lawsuit to impose a compensation in the total amount of over PLN 493 million (plus interest) for damages incurred in respect of incorrect (in their opinion) determination of the exchange ratio of shares in the merger of PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka S.A. and PGE S.A. The Company filed a response to the lawsuit. Currently the proceedings before the court of first instance are in progress.
Moreover, a similar claim was raised by Pozwy sp. z o.o., a buyer of claims from the former shareholders of PGE Elektrownia Opole S.A. Through a lawsuit filed at the District Court in Warsaw against PGE GiEK S.A., PGE S.A. and PwC Polska sp. z o.o. ("Defendants"), Pozwy sp.z o.o. demanded from the Defendants, in solidum, or jointly damagesfor Pozwy sp.z o.o. totalling over PLN 260 million with interest for allegedly incorrect (in its opinion) determination of exchange ratio for PGE Elektrownia Opole S.A. shares for PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A. shares in a merger of these companies. This lawsuit was delivered to PGE S.A. on March 9, 2017, and the deadline for responding to it was set by the court as July 9, 2017. The following companies: PGE S.A. and PGE GiEK S.A. submitted a response to the claim and the lawsuit is currently being proceeded in the first instance. A hearing has been set for August 21, 2018.
PGE Group companies do not recognise the claims being raised by Socrates Investment S.A., Pozwy sp. z o.o. and other shareholders requesting conciliatory settlements. According to PGE S.A., these claims are groundless and the entire consolidation process was conducted fairly and properly. The value ofshares subject to the process of consolidation was established by an independent company, PwC Polska sp. z o.o. Additionally, merger plans of the companies mentioned above, including the exchange ratios were examined for accuracy and reliability by an expert appointed by the registration court; no irregularities were found. Then, the court registered the mergers of the companies mentioned above.
PGE Group has notrecognised a provision forthis claim.
On March 15, 2017, PGE S.A. received a copy of a lawsuit filed to the District Court of Warsaw by one of itsshareholders. In the lawsuit, the shareholder is seeking for annulment of resolution 4 of the Company's Extraordinary General Meeting held on September 5, 2016. The Company filed a response to the lawsuit.
Having examined the shareholder's claim at a closed-door hearing on October 11, 2017, the District Court in Warsaw ruled to refer the case for mediation.
PGE S.A. decided not to agree to mediation. On March 15, 2018, the District Court in Warsaw issued a judgment dismissing the shareholder's claim in its entirety. The ruling isfinal.
In October and November 2016 PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A., PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A. and PGE Energia Natury PEW sp. z o.o. (acquired by PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A.) received from Enea S.A. termination of long-term contracts for purchase of renewable energy origin rights, so called "green certificates." Justifying the termination, Enea S.A. claimed that the companies significantly breached the provisions of these contracts, i.e. failed to re-negotiate contractual provisions in accordance with the adaptive clause, as requested by Enea S.A. in July 2015 in connection with an alleged change in legal regulations having impact on performance of these contracts.
In the opinion of PGE Group, notices of termination of contracts presented by Enea S.A. were filled in with a violation of terms of the agreements. The companies took appropriate steps to enforce their rights. With Enea S.A. refusing to perform long-term contracts to purchase property rights resulting from certificates of origin received by PGE Group companies in connection with the production of renewable energy, PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A. and PGE Energia Natury PEW sp.z o.o. have demanded from Enea S.A. payment of contractual penalties, while PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A. has demanded payment of compensation for damages. In the proceeding instigated by PGE Energia Natury PEW sp. z o.o. (currently PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A.), the District Court in Poznań, 9th Commercial Division ruled fully in favour and issued a payment demand in a writ of payment proceeding. The payment demand became invalid once Enea submitted an appeal. The proceeding isin progress. The next hearing isscheduled for September 2018.
Due to the fact that according to PGE Group declarations on termination of the agreements presented by Enea S.A. were submitted in breach of contractual terms, as at June 30, 2018, the Group recognised contractual penalty and compensation receivables of PLN 130 million (of which PLN 2 million was recognised as present-period revenue). As the same time, property rights inventories that were initially measured at values resulting from the agreements were revalued to market prices. According to PGE Group companies, based on available legal analysis, a favourable resolution in the above disputesis more probable then a negative resolution.
Estimated volume of the green certificates covered by the contracts with Enea S.A. amounts to approximately 2,652 thousand MWh. The above amount was calculated for the period from the date the contracts were terminated to the end of the expected initial term of the contracts.
In addition, PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A., PGE Energia Natury PEW sp. z o.o. (acquired by PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A.) and PGE Energia Odnawialna S.A. filed lawsuits against Enea S.A. for the payment of receivablestotalling PLN 47 million concerning invoicesissued to Enea S.A. for the sale of property rights based on these contracts. Enea S.A. refused to pay these receivables, claiming that they were offset by receivablesfrom the Group's companiesrelated to compensation for alleged damages arising as a result of the companies' failure to re-negotiate the contracts. According to Group companies, such offsets are groundless because Enea S.A.'s receivables concerning the payment of compensation never arose and there are no grounds for acknowledging Enea S.A.'s claim that the companies breached contractual provisions. The proceedings are in progress. The next hearings are scheduled for September 2018.
Tax obligations and rights are specified in the Constitution of the Republic of Poland, tax regulations and ratified international agreements. According to the tax ordinance, tax is defined as public, unpaid, obligatory and non-returnable cash liability toward the State Treasury, provincial or other regional authorities resulting from the tax regulation. Taking into account the subject criterion, current taxesin Poland can be divided into five groups: taxation of incomes, taxation of turnover, taxation of assets, taxation of activities and other, not classified elsewhere.
From the point of view of business entities, the most important is the taxation of incomes (corporate income tax), taxation of turnover (value added tax, excise tax) followed by taxation of assets (real estate tax and vehicle tax). Other payments classified as quasi – taxes must also be mentioned. Among these there are socialsecurity charges.
Basic tax rates were as follows in 2018: corporate income tax rate – 19%, for smaller enterprises a 15% rate is possible; basic value added tax rate – 23%, reduced: 8%, 5%, 0%, furthermore some goods and products are subject to a VAT tax exemption.
The tax system in Poland is characterized by a significant changeability of tax regulations, their high complexity, high potential fees for commitment of a tax crime or violation. Tax settlements and other activity areas are conditioned by regulations (customs or currency controls) and can be subject to controls of respective authorities that are entitled to issue fines and penalties with penalty interest. Controls may covertax settlementsforthe period of 5 years afterthe end of calendar yearin which the tax was due.
An agreement for a tax group named PGK PGE 2015, for which PGE S.A. is the representative, was signed on September 18, 2014, for a period of 25 years.
Companies included in the tax group must meet a number of requirements covering: appropriate level of equity, parent's stake in PGK companies of at least 75%, lack of capital ties between subsidiaries, no tax arrears, share in total revenue of at least 2% (counted at tax group level), and execution of transactions with related parties from outside the tax group only on market terms. Violating these requirements would mean the dissolution of the tax group and loss of its taxpayer status. When the tax group is dissolved, each of its member companies becomes an individual payer of corporate income tax.
As a result of changesin legislation,starting from 2018 taxpayer revenue is divided into two sources: economic (operating) activities and capital gains. This means that each source of revenue will be settled separately and that companies may not offset losses incurred in one source using revenue from the othersource. The capital gainssource includes: dividends, income obtained as a result of mergers of de-mergers, in-kind contributions, share disposals, disposal of debt claims, income from property rights (authors' rights, licences) and income from securities.
According to existing estimates, the introduction of two income sourcesshould notsubstantially affect the PGE Group'stax burden.
Starting from July 1, 2018, a VAT split payment mechanism will be introduced. This solution is intended to seal off the tax system by separating VAT amounts from bank transfers being made by buyers of products and services and directing these to sellers' dedicated VAT accounts. Funds collected in these VAT accounts may only be used for VAT settlements concerning invoices received and VAT settlements with the tax office. Using split VAT payments will not be the buyer'sright butrather an obligation.
Given the above, the introduction of a split payment mechanism might increase net debt and the net debt to EBITDA ratio. At the date on which these financialstatements were prepared, there was no set practice asto how cash in VAT accounts will be taken into account when calculating debt ratios that are presented to financing institutions. PGE Group intends to effectively use the funds received from counterparties in VAT accounts to pay its liabilities that contain VAT. The level of funds in these VAT accounts will depend mainly on how many of PGE Group's counterparties decide to use this mechanism and the relation between receivables and liabilities payment dates. According to the Group's estimates, the average level of cash in VAT accounts might be in the range of PLN 100-200 million. As at July 31, 2018, the cash balance in these VAT accountstotalled approx. PLN 45 million.
In connection with an incorrect implementation of EU regulationsin the Polish legal system, PGE GiEK S.A. in 2009 initiated proceedings regarding reimbursement of improperly paid excise tax for the period January 2006 - February 2009. The irregularity consisted of taxing electricity at the firststage ofsale, i.e. by producers, whereassalesto end usersshould have been taxed.
Examining the company's complaints with regard to the restitution claims against decisionsissued by tax authoritiesrefusing to confirm overpayment of excise tax, administrative courts ruled that the company did not bear the economic burden of the improperly calculated excise tax (which in the context of the resolution by the Supreme Administrative Court of June 22, 2011, file no. I GPS 1/11, precludes the return of overpaid amounts). According to the Supreme Administrative Court, the claims that the company sought, especially using economic analyses, are of an offsetting nature and therefore may be sought only in civil courts. Given the above, PGE GiEK S.A. decided to withdraw from the proceedings as regards restitution claims. Currently, the issue of overpaid excise tax is in civil courts and the intention isto reach a settlement with the State Treasury asregardsrestitution claims.
Given the significant uncertainty over the final ruling in this issue, the Group does not recognise in its financial statements any effects related to potential compensation in civil courtsin connection with the improperly paid excise tax.
Considering pending disputes, PGE Group established at the reporting date the provision for property tax in the amount of PLN 83 million. The provision relates mainly to tax proceedings with regard to property tax in selected power plants. The dispute is related to the subject of taxation and concerns mainly a decision whether installations in buildings and detached technical machinery should be taxed as autonomous constructions. Tax proceedings are currently at various stages of tax authorities proceedings, i.e. in front of first instance authorities(village mayor, mayor), local government board of appeals and administrative courts.
As a result of an update of the Renewables Act entering into force (Polish Journal of Laws of June 7, 2018, item 1276), from January 1, 2018 rulesfor property tax for wind farmsthat had been in effect until the end of 2016 were restored. Given the above, the current tax base for a wind farm constitutesits construction elements and not the entire wind farm.

Until June 30, 2017, members of the management boards of PGE Group companies were employed based on civil contracts and employment contracts. From the end of June 2017, PGE Group companies (direct and indirect subsidiaries) apply a rule according to which management board members are employed on the basis of managementservices contracts, taking into account the provisions of the Act of June 9, 2016, on rules for the remuneration of management personnel at certain companies (Polish Journal of Laws of 2017, item 2190, i.e. of November 28, 2017). In determining remuneration for members of management and supervisory bodies, the scale of the company's business, especially the value of its assets, revenue and size of workforce, istaken into account.
The growth in management remuneration at companiesin the 'other activity'segment in the period ended June 30, 2018, compared to the same period last year, resulted mainly from the consolidation of entities acquired as a result of the purchase of EDF's assets.
The above remuneration is included in employee benefit costs and other costs by nature disclosed in note 7.2 Costs by nature and function.
On May 22, 2018, PGE, with the intermediation of Pekao Investment Banking S.A., announced a tender offer to subscribe for the sale of 45 443 547 ordinary bearer shares, i.e. all shares issued by Polenergia S.A., entitling to 100% of votes at Polenergia S.A.'s general meeting, for PLN 16.29 pershare. PGE is also the acquiring entity in this Tender Offer.
As part of the transaction, the call was granted a security in the form of a bank guarantee for PGE'sliabilities, issued by Bank Polska Kasa Opieki S.A. and PEKAO Investment Banking S.A. is the guarantee's beneficiary . The Bank Guarantee was issued on 22 May 2018 for the amount of PLN 740 million, with validity until November 21, 2018.
The Tender Offer was announced on conditionsspecified in the Tender Offer content, including:
If the subscription period is neither extended nor shortened, subscriptions for Polenergia S.A. shares will be accepted from July 13, 2018, to September 20, 2018.
No significant events took place between the end of the reporting period and the date on which these financial statements were approved.

PGE Polska Grupa Energetyczna S.A. ("the Company", "PGE S.A.") was founded on the basis of the Notary Deed of August 2, 1990 and registered in the District Court in Warsaw, XVI Commercial Department on September 28, 1990. The Company was registered in the National Court Register of the District Court forthe capital city of Warsaw, XII Commercial Department, under no. KRS 0000059307.
The Company'sregistered office isin Warsaw, ul. Mysia 2.
PGE S.A. is the parent company of the PGE Polska Grupa Energetyczna S.A. Group ("PGE Group", "Group") and prepares separate and consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS EU").
The State Treasury isthe Company's principalshareholder.
The Company's core activities are asfollows:
PGE S.A.'s business activities are conducted under appropriate concessions, including concession for electricity trading granted by the Energy Regulatory Office. The concession is valid until 2025. No significant assets or liabilities are assigned to the concession. According to the concession the annual fees are paid depending on the level of trading.
Revenue from the sale of electricity and other energy market productsisthe only significant itemsin operating revenue. Thisrevenue is generated on the domestic market. The Company does notreport business or geographicalsegments.
PGE S.A.'s accounting books are maintained by subsidiary PGE Synergia sp.z o.o.
These condensed interim financial statements were prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue to operate as a going concern in the foreseeable future. As at the date of approval of these financialstatements, there is no evidence indicating that the Company will not be able to continue its operations as a going concern.
These financial statements comprise financial data for the period from January 1, 2018 to June 30, 2018 ("financial statements") and include comparative data forthe period from January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2017 and as at December 31, 2017.
The same accounting rules (policies) and calculation methods are applied in these financial statements as in the most recent annual financial statements and they should be read in conjunction with PGE S.A.'s audited separate financial statements prepared in accordance with EU IFRS forthe year ended December 31, 2017.
Main factors affecting the demand for electricity and heat are: weather conditions – air temperature, wind force, rainfall, socioeconomic factors – number of energy consumers, energy carriers prices, growth of GDP and technological factors – advances in technology, product manufacturing technology. Each of these factors has an impact on technical and economic conditions of production and distribution of energy products, thusinfluence the results obtained by the Company.
The level of electricity sales is variable throughout a year and depends especially on weather conditions - air temperature, length of the day. Growth in electricity demand is particularly evident in winter periods, while lower demands are observed during the summer months. Moreover, seasonal changes are evident among selected groups of end users. Seasonality effects are more significant for householdsthan forthe industrialsector.
PGE S.A.'s sales seasonality results from the fact that the Company sold 86% of its electricity sales volume to PGE Obrót S.A. and PGE Dystrybucja S.A., whose demand for electricity issubject to seasonality.
In the period covered by these financial statements, no other significant changes in estimatestook place that would have an impact on the amounts presented in the financialstatements.
New standards and interpretations that were published but are not yet in force are described in note 2.3 to the consolidated financial statements.
New standards and interpretations that went into force on January 1, 2018, as described in more detail in note 4 of consolidated financialstatements, had no impact on the Company'sseparate financialstatements.
IFRS 9 replaced IAS MSR 39 Financial instruments: recognition and measurement and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. IFRS addressed three areas related to financial instruments: classification and measurement, impairment and hedge accounting.
Financial assets are subject to classification in the following categories of financial instruments:
The classification of financial assetsis based on the business model and characteristics of cash flows.
A debt instrument is measured at amortised cost if both ofthe following conditions are met:
A debt instrument is measured at FVTOCI if both of the following conditions are met:
All other debt instruments must be measured at fair value through profit orloss(FVTPL).
All equity investments are measured at fair value. If an equity investment is not held for trading, the Company can make an irrevocable decision to recognise changes at FVTOCI if the instrument is not held fortrading. For equity instruments held fortrading, changesin fair value are recognised in profit orloss.
Allstandard transactions of purchase orsell of financial assets are recognised at the transaction date, i.e. at the date on which the entity committed to purchase the asset. Standard transactions of purchase or sell of financial assets are transactions which delivery of the asset is explicitly stated by law or customsin a given market.
An impairment model is based on expected credit losses and itsscope coversthe following:
The Company applies requirements concerning impairment in order to recognise and measure losses on these financial assets that are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. A loss allowances is recognised in other comprehensive income and does notreduce the balance sheet value of the financial asset in the statement of financial position.
With the exception of purchased or originated credit impaired financial assets, expected credit losses are required to be measured through a loss allowance at an amount equal to:
The impairment of a financial asset if the credit risk of that financial instrument has increased significantly since initial recognition, regardless of whether it was measured separately or collectively, should take into account all rational and documentable information, including forward-looking data.
The Company appliesthe following rules for estimating and recognising the loss allowances on financial assets:
for deposits in banks, the Company will estimate expected credit losses based on a model used to evaluate this risk on the basis of ratings assigned to banks by external institutions; ratings have a likelihood of default assigned, which is adjusted to reflect impact of macroeconomic factors;
for cash pooling receivables, the Company will estimate expected credit losses based on a model used to evaluate this risk on the basis of ratings assigned to banks and to PGE S.A. by external institutions; ratings have a likelihood of default assigned, which is adjusted to reflect impact of macroeconomic factors;
Investments in stakes in subsidiaries and associates are excluded from the scope of IFRS 9 and their measurement will be as before, i.e. at historic cost of purchase less impairment.
The Company classified financial liabilities in one of the following categories:
After analysis, the Company decided not to implement the changes resulting from IFRS 9 regarding hedge accounting from January 1, 2018.
The Company applied IFRS 9 from January 1, 2018, withoutrestating its comparative data.
The Company analysed the business model as at the first date of application of IFRS 9, i.e. January 1, 2018, and subsequently applied retrospectively, regardless of what business model was used in previousreporting periods on these assetsfor which recognition had not ceased prior to January 1, 2018. The Company analysed compliance with SPPI criteria based on facts and circumstances at the moment of the initialrecognition of financial assets.
If the Company applied IFRS 9 in itsfinancialstatementsfor 2017, impairment losses on financial assets as at December 31, 2017, would have been approx. PLN 1 million higher. Equity as at December 31, 2017 would have decreased by about PLN 1 million gross, (no impact on deferred tax).
Given the negligible impact of the new standard, its effects were not recognised as retained earnings as of January 1, 2018. Starting from January 1, 2018, the Company recognises expected credit lossesin accordance with IFRS 9 requirements.
Changes in the classification of financial instruments resulted in the change of name of several items from the statement of financial position no amounts were reclassified between items.
IFRS 15 repeals IAS 11 Construction Contracts, IAS 18 Revenue and related interpretations and applies to all contracts with customers, with the exception of those that fall under the scope of other standards. The new standard establishes the Five Step Model for recognising revenue from contracts with customers. According to IFRS 15, revenue is recognised in the amount that - according to the entity's expectations- is due in exchange for delivery of the goods orservicesto the customer.
Revenue is recognised so as to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expectsto be entitled in exchange forthose goods orservices.
The Company recognisesrevenue from a contract with a client only if all of the following criteria are met:
Upon contract execution, the Company analyses the goods or services covered by the contract with the client and identifies as a performance obligation all commitmentsto provide the client with:
The Company recognises revenue when the performance obligation concerning the goods and services is met (or is in the process of being met). The transfer of the asset occurs when the client obtains control over the asset, i.e. gains the ability to directly manage the asset and obtain largely all other benefitsfrom it.
The Company transfers control over goods or services over time and thus satisfies the performance obligation and recognises revenue overtime if one ofthe following conditionsis met:
For each performance obligation over time, the Company recognises revenue over time, measuring the degree of performance of this obligation. The aim of this measurement is to establish progress in performing this obligation to transfer control over goods or services promised to the client (i.e. degree of obligation performance).
Based on this analysis, the Company found that it is an intermediary in gaseous fuel transmission services. The recognition of revenue and costs concerning these services would have caused a decrease in operating revenue and costs by the same amount, with no impact on profit orloss. Because the transmission service is negligible, the Company does not offsetrevenue and costsrelated to this.
The Company applied IFRS 15 from the date it entersinto force, i.e. January 1, 2018, withoutrestating its comparative data.
Change in presentation of employee benefits concerning accrued leave and bonuses
In the present period, the Company decided to change the way in which it presents employee benefits concerning accrued leave, bonuses and similarfrom the item "provisions" to the item "other non-financial liabilities."
The Company restated its comparative data presented in the statement of financial position. The restatement is presented in the table below.

The principles for valuation of inventories, derivatives, shares and instruments not quoted on active markets, for which fair value may not be determined reliably, are the same as presented in the financialstatementsforthe year ended December 31, 2017.
The Company measures derivatives at fair value using valuation models for financial instruments based on publicly available exchange rates, interest rates, discount curves for currencies (valid also for commodities, prices of which are denominated in those currencies) derived from active markets. The fair value of derivatives is determined based on discounted future cash flows from transactions, calculated on the difference between the forward rate and transaction price. Forward exchange rates are not modelled as separate risk factors, but are derived from the spotrate and appropriate forward interestrate forforeign currenciesin relation to PLN.
During the current and comparative reporting periods, there have been no transfers of financial instruments between the first and the second level of fair value hierarchy.

| TOTAL REVENUE FROM SALES | 5,179 | 4,591 |
The increase revenue from electricity sales in the first half of 2018 in comparison to corresponding period of the previous year mainly results from higher turnover volume and higher sales prices, mainly in transactions with PGE Obrót S.A. Sales to PGE Obrót S.A. are conducted in orderto secure retail client demand for electricity.
The higher revenue from natural gas sales results from higher gas prices in sales to entities outside PGE Group. The sales volume was similar to the volume sold as at the end of June 2017, with a decline in exchange sales and an offsetting increase in sales to entities outside PGE Group.
The decline in revenue from the sale of other goods and materials mainly resulted from lower CO2 emission allowance sales volume.
The Company's main counterparties are PGE Group subsidiaries. In the first half of 2018, sales to PGE Obrót S.A. accounted for 73% of revenue from sales, while sales to PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A. accounted for 8%. In the first half of 2017, sales to these companies accounted for 70% and 11%, respectively.

In previousreporting periods, PGE S.A. recognised an impairment loss on itsstake in PGE Obrót S.A. amounting to PLN 5.536 billion. The reason forthisimpairment loss was donation of the shares of PGE Dystrybucja S.A., in 2014, as a result of which the equity of PGE Obrót S.A. significantly decreased. After the donation, the value of PGE Obrót S.A.'s shares was estimated in line with IAS 36 using the discounted cash flows method. In 2017, as a result of the impairment test, the value of PGE Obrót S.A. shares was estimated at PLN 2,406 million, which resulted in a reversal of the existing impairment allowances by PLN 1,289 million. At the end of the current reporting period, another analysis of indications that may warrant an impairment test was conducted in order to determine whether these assets are impaired orthe earlierimpairment allowances may be reversed.
As a result of this analysis and a lack of significant changes in regulations, according to PGE S.A., as at the reporting day there was no need for recognising further impairment allowances on PGE Obrót S.A. shares nor was there need for reversing previously recognised allowances.
