the subsidiary’s share in the parent entity’s total assets does not exceed 2%;
the share in the parent entity’s revenue from sales, other operating income and finance income does not exceed 1%;
where those transactions between the subsidiary and its parent entity which would be eliminated during consolidation are not taken
into account when determining whether the said thresholds have been exceeded.
In total, the financial data of the subsidiaries eliminated from consolidation cannot exceed:
5% of the share in the parent entity’s total assets;
2% of the share in the parent entity’s revenue from sales, other operating income and finance income;

Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all and any entities over which the Group has control which manifests itself by, simultaneously:
having power, consisting of having substantive rights that give the Group the current ability to direct the relevant activities, i.e.
those activities which significantly affect the entity’s financial results;
being exposed or having rights to variable returns, consisting of having the potential to change the financial results of the Group
depending on the results of the subsidiary;
having the ability to use the power exercised to affect its returns from the subsidiary by using its power in order to affect the
financial results attributable to the Group resulting from the involvement in the subsidiary.
Subsidiaries which meet the above-mentioned materiality criterion are fully consolidated from the date on which the Group assumed
control over them. They cease to be consolidated from the date that control ceases.
Revenue and costs, receivables and payables and unrealized gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated for
the purposes of the consolidated financial statements. Unrealized losses are also eliminated, unless the transaction is an impairment
indicator of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency
with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
Changes in accounting policies
The accounting policies applied in these consolidated financial statements, material judgements made by the Parent Company’s
Management Board with regard to the accounting policies applied by the Group and the main sources of estimating uncertainties
are consistent, in all material respects, with the policy adopted for preparing the annual consolidated financial statements of the
CD PROJEKT Group for 2022, with the exception of changes in accounting policies and presentation changes described in the
section “Assumption of comparability of the financial statements, changes in accounting policies and estimates”.
Going concern assumption
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on the assumption that the Group and the Parent Company
will continue in operation as a going concern in the foreseeable future, i.e. in the period of at least 12 months after the balance
sheet date.
As at the date of signing these consolidated financial statements, the Management Board of the Parent Company has not identified
any facts or circumstances which would indicate any threats to the Group continuing in operation as a going concern for a period
of 12 months after the end of the reporting period as a result of intended or forced discontinuation or significant curtailment of its
operations to date.
By the date of preparing the consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 January to 31 December 2023, the Management
Board of the Parent Company did not become aware of any events which should have been but were not recognized in the
accounting records for the reporting period. At the same time, no significant prior year events have been disclosed in these
consolidated financial statements.
Compliance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards
The Group’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards
(hereinafter “IFRS”), as adopted by the European Union, effective for annual periods beginning on 1 January 2023.

23
Amendments to standards or interpretations effective from 1 January 2023
applicable and adopted by the Group
In preparing the consolidated financial statements for 2023, the Group applies the same accounting policies as in preparing the
annual financial statements for 2022, with the exception of amendments to standards and new standards and interpretations
endorsed by the European Union, which are effective for reporting periods beginning on 1 January 2023:
IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts - endorsed on 19 November 2021, applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January
2023;
A new standard governing the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of insurance and reinsurance contracts.
It replaced the formerly applicable IFRS 4 Insurance contracts.
Amendments to IAS 1 and Practice Statement 2: Disclosure of Accounting Policies (published on 12 February 2021) - endorsed
on 2 March 2022 and applicable to annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023;
IASB clarified which information on the Group’s accounting policies is material and requires disclosure in the financial
statements. The amendments focus on tailoring disclosures to the Group’s specific circumstances. The Board cautions against
the use of standardised provisions copied from IFRS and expects the basis of measurement of financial instruments to be
considered as material information.
Amendments to IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors - approved on 2 March 2022 and
applicable to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023;
The Board introduced the definition of an accounting estimate in the standard: Accounting estimates are monetary amounts in
financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty.
Amendments to IAS 12 Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction - applicable to periods
beginning on or after 1 January 2023;
The Board introduced the principle that if a transaction gives rise to equal taxable and deductible temporary differences,
a deferred tax asset and a deferred tax provision should be recognized even if the transaction does not result from a business
combination and has no impact on the accounting or tax profit or loss. This means that a deferred tax asset and provision must
be recognized, for example, when equal temporary differences arise on leases (separate temporary differences on the liability
and on the right-of-use asset) or on restoration liabilities. The principle which says that deferred income tax assets and liabilities
are offset if current income tax assets and liabilities are offset was not changed.
Amendments to IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts concerning Initial Application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 - Comparative Information -
endorsed on 8 September 2022 and applicable to periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023.
The Board set out transitional provisions relating to comparative data for entities which adopt IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 at the same
time, to reduce the potential accounting mismatch resulting from differences between these two standards.
Amendments to IAS 12 The International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules - endorsed on 8 November 2023, applicable to
reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023.
The amendment has introduced a temporary exception from recognizing the deferred tax resulting from implementation of the
International Tax Reform (Pillar Two) and a requirement for additional disclosures related to that exception.
These amendments have no material impact on the accounting policies adopted by the Group with regard to the Group’s operations
or its financial results.

24
Standards published and endorsed by the EU which are not yet effective and their impact on the
Group’s financial statements
The Management Board has analysed the impact of the application of the new standards on future financial statements. When
approving these financial statements, the Group did not apply the following standards, amendments and interpretations published
and endorsed by the EU, but not yet effective:
Amendments to IFRS 16 Leases: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback - applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after
1 January 2024.
Amendment to IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements: Classification of liabilities as current or non-current and Non-current
Liabilities with Covenants - applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024.
The Group does not expect the introduction of these amendments to have a material impact on the accounting policies adopted
by the Group with regard to the Group’s operations or its financial results.
Standards and interpretations adopted by the IASB but not yet endorsed by the EU
When approving these financial statements, the Group did not apply the following standards, amendments and interpretations
which have not yet been endorsed by the EU:
Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures - Supplier Finance
Arrangements - applicable to reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024.
Amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates - Lack of Exchangeability - applicable to reporting
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025.
The Group is analysing the estimated impact of the standards and amendments listed above on the Group’s financial statements.
Description of adopted accounting policies
Revenue and operating expenses
Revenue constitutes inflows of economic benefits, gross, for a given period, arising as a result of ordinary business activities of the
Group, resulting in an increase in equity other than the increases due to contributions made by shareholders.
The Group recognizes revenue using the so-called Five-Step Model provided for in IFRS 15. Revenue includes only amounts
received or receivable equal to the transaction prices that accrue to the Group upon fulfilment (or in the process of fulfilment) of the
performance obligation to transfer the promised good or service (i.e. an asset) to the customer. The payment from a customer
becomes due after that performance obligation has been fulfilled. The transaction price is the amount of consideration that the
Group expects to receive in exchange for the transfer of the promised goods or services, less any applicable value-added tax.
In the case of revenue in the form of royalties from the sale of licences for the distribution of games, which is the Group’s main
source of revenue, revenue depends on the volume of sales realized by the distributor at any given time during the reporting period.
Thus, revenue from the sale of a particular product is recognized in the sales period no sooner than after the delivery of the materials
to start the actual distribution of the completed game, based on sales reports successively provided by the distributor. The payment
from a customer becomes due after sales reports have been submitted by a distributor.
The Group recognizes the costs of materials used, goods for resale and products and service costs in the same period as sales of
these items or sales of the services for which the items are used, in accordance with the principle of matching revenues and costs.
As part of its operations, the GOG.COM segment concludes contracts with users in its own name and on its own account, based on
the right to distribute digital content to end users. By owning the files that make up the products it sells, the Group has control over
them and makes them available to users independently as part of the sales process. The Group is obliged to perform the service
of providing certain services and provides technical support and is liable for the service provided. The Group is liable under
consumer protection legislation and bears the credit risk in respect of the amount owed by the customer. In this line of business,
the Group is a principal and not an intermediary.
The Group receives short-term advances from its customers presenting advance payments as deferred income instead of
recognizing a financing component, if the Group expects, at contract inception, that the period between when the entity transfers
a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less.

(all amounts in PLN thousand, unless stated otherwise)
The attached notes are an integral part of these financial statements.
25
Finance income and costs
Finance income consists mainly of interest on deposits of surplus cash in bank accounts, commission and interest on loans granted,
interest on late payment of receivables, release of provisions relating to financing activities, proceeds from sale of securities, foreign
exchange gains, restoration of the impaired value of financial investments, forgiven loans and advances and gains on settlement of
derivative instruments.
Finance costs mainly comprise interest on loans and advances, interest on late payment of liabilities, provisions recorded against
certain or probable losses on financial operations, the cost of shares and securities sold, commission and handling charges, write-
downs of interest receivables and the value of short-term investments, discounts and net foreign exchange losses on financing
activities and, in the case of leases, other charges except for capital instalments.
State subsidies
State subsidies are not recorded until obtaining reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the required terms and
conditions and obtain a subsidy. State subsidies, the principal condition of which is the purchase or manufacture of fixed assets by
the company, are recognized in the balance sheet as deferred income and taken to the income statement on a pro rata basis over
the expected economic useful life of the assets.
Current and deferred income tax
The mandatory profit reductions consist of current tax, withholding tax paid abroad and deferred tax. Current income tax is
calculated on the basis of taxable income (tax base) for a given financial year. Taxable profit/(loss) differs from accounting profit/(loss)
before tax due to the different timing of the recognition of income and expenses for tax and accounting purposes, as well as due
to the permanent differences between the tax and accounting treatment of certain income and expense items. Tax expense is
calculated based on the tax rates in effect for the financial year. Current income tax relating to items recognized directly in equity
is recognized in equity rather than in the income statement.
Deferred tax is calculated using the liability method as tax payable or reimbursable in the future in respect of differences between
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax amounts used for the calculation of the tax base.
Deferred tax provision is recorded on all taxable temporary differences, and a deferred tax asset is recorded to the extent that the
future tax profits are likely to be reduced by the amount of recognized deductible temporary differences. An asset or liability does
not arise if the temporary difference arises from goodwill.
Deferred tax provision is recognized on temporary differences arising from investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint
ventures, unless the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the
temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
The amount of deferred tax asset is analysed at each balance sheet date, and it is written down if the expected future taxable
income is not sufficient to utilize the asset or its portion.
Deferred tax is calculated using the tax rates which will be binding at the moment when a given asset is realized or a liability
becomes due. Deferred tax is recognized in the income statement, apart from the situations when it relates to items recorded
directly in equity. In the latter case, deferred tax is also recognized directly in Equity.
Value-added tax (VAT)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of value-added tax, except for:
where the value-added tax paid on the purchase of assets or services is not recoverable from the tax authorities, in which case
it is recognized as part of the cost of acquiring the asset or as an expense, as appropriate,
receivables and payables which are recorded including the amount of value-added tax.
The net amount of value-added tax recoverable from or payable to the tax authorities is recognized in the balance sheet as part of
receivables or payables.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment items are initially recognized at cost (the cost of purchase or manufacture) and reduced in
subsequent periods by depreciation and impairment. Borrowing costs directly related to the purchase or manufacture of assets that
require an extended period of time to adapt them for use or resale are added to the cost of such assets until such assets are
commissioned. Investment income generated from the short-term investment of funds raised and related to the purchase or
manufacture of fixed assets reduces the value of capitalized borrowing costs. Other borrowing costs are recognized in the income
statement in the period in which they were incurred.

Depreciation is calculated for property, plant and equipment items, excluding land and assets under construction, over their
estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
The expected useful life for each category of property, plant and equipment is:
Category Useful life
Buildings and structures 5 25 years
Plant and machinery 2 10 years
Vehicles 5 years
Other fixed assets 2 10 years
Fixed assets with a low initial unit cost of no more than PLN 5 thousand are depreciated in a simplified way by making a one-off
write-off.
Gains or losses on disposal / scrapping or decommissioning of fixed assets are determined as the difference between proceeds on
disposal and the net carrying amounts of these assets, taking into account the provisions of IFRS 15, and are included in the Income
statement.
Intangible assets - Expenditure on development projects
The Group classifies expenditure on the development of games under Expenditure on development projects. Game development
costs incurred prior to the commencement of sales or the application of new solutions are recognized as Expenditure on
development projects in progress. This expenditure includes expenses that are directly related to the project in question.
The Group verifies whether an intangible asset arising from a development project meets the following conditions:
a) it is technically feasible to complete the intangible asset so that it is suitable for use or sale;
b) there is a demonstrable intention to complete the asset and use or sell it;
c) the intangible asset can be used or sold;
d) the manner in which the asset will generate probable future economic benefits is known;
e) adequate technical, financial and other resources will be ensured to complete the development project and to use or sell
the intangible asset;
f) there is a possibility to reliably determine the expenditure incurred during a development project, which is attributable to
the intangible asset.
When these conditions are met, the Group reclassifies the expenditure from Expenditure on development projects in progress to
Expenditure on development projects completed. In the case of projects for which it is possible to determine reliable estimates of
the volume and value of the sales budget, the Group amortizes the value of these projects based on the consumption of economic
benefits related to the number of copies sold.
The Group determines the amortization period and rates after the release of each title in the course of working on the interim
financial statements while being in possession of the preliminary results of release sales and game ratings. The Group then
establishes:
(i) the useful life based on the historical useful lives of previous comparable titles, normally no less than 3 years and no more than
6 years, given the difficulty in making reliable estimates over a longer horizon in an industry which is subject to dynamic change;
(ii) the basis for determining amortization rates, namely sales forecasts for the period of the useful life.
Then, based on professional judgement, the Group estimates what proportion of the benefits will be realized in the quarter of
release and, in subsequent periods, smooths out the input distribution, eliminating the effect of periodic and one-off promotions
and anticipated but uncertain one-off events (such as the release of the series Cyberpunk: Edgerunners on Netflix), in order to
achieve the effect of constant reducing balance or straight-line amortization from quarter to quarter.
In justified cases, the settlement of expenditure incurred may be of a one-off nature (e.g. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners anime).

Intangible assets - Other
Intangible assets are presented at historical cost less amortization and impairment losses. Amortization is recognized on a straight-
line basis. Costs of research projects are not capitalized and are presented in the Income statement as expenses in the period in
which they are incurred.
The expected useful life for each category of intangible assets is as follows:
Category Useful life
Patents and licenses 2 15 years
Computer software 2 – 10 years
Intangible assets with a low initial unit cost not exceeding PLN 5 thousand are amortized in a simplified manner by making a one-
time write-off.
The Group’s consolidated financial statements show the commodity brand The Witcher and the corporate brand CD PROJEKT.
Brands have been valued using the Relief from Royalty capitalization method representing the income approach, which is one of
the primary methods for valuing brands and other intangible assets for the purpose of accounting for business combinations in
accordance with IFRS 3 Business Combinations. Neither brand has a definite useful life. Goodwill of the brands is subject to an
annual impairment test.
Goodwill
Goodwill (gain) is calculated as the balance of two amounts:
the sum of the consideration transferred for control, the non-controlling interests (measured as a proportion of the net assets
acquired) and the fair value of the blocks of interests (shares) held by the acquiree prior to the acquisition date; and
the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired of the entity.
The excess of the sum calculated as indicated above over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired of the entity is
recognized as goodwill on the assets side of the consolidated statement of financial position. Goodwill represents the payment
made by the acquirer in anticipation of future economic benefits from assets that cannot be individually identified or separately
recognized. After initial recognition goodwill is stated at cost, less accumulated impairment losses.
If the aforementioned sum is less than the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired of the entity, the difference is recognized
directly in the profit or loss. The Group recognizes a gain on the acquisition under other operating income.
Mergers of business entities under common control
The legal merger of the Parent Company with its subsidiary is recognized using the amounts relating to the subsidiary shown in the
Parent Company’s consolidated financial statements; these amounts include amounts recognized in the Parent Company’s
consolidated financial statements arising from the acquisition of the subsidiary. The subsidiary’s results and statement of financial
position are recognized prospectively from the date of the legal merger.
Impairment of non-financial assets
At each balance sheet date, the Group companies review the net book amounts of non-current assets to determine whether there
are indications of their impairment.
If such indications are found, the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to determine the amount of the potential write-down.
If an asset does not generate cash flows that are considerably independent of the cash flows generated by other assets, the analysis
is performed for the group of assets generating cash flows (a cash-generating unit) to which the asset belongs.
In the case of intangible assets with an indefinite useful life, impairment tests are carried out annually and additionally when there
are indications of possible impairment.
The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The latter amount corresponds
to the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted using a discount rate that takes into account the current market time
value of money and the risks specific to a given asset.
If the recoverable amount is lower than the net book amount of an asset (or a group of assets), the book value is reduced to the
recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized as an expense in the period in which it occurs, except when the asset was
recognized at a revalued amount (impairment is then treated as the reversal of previous revaluation).

(all amounts in PLN thousand, unless stated otherwise)
The attached notes are an integral part of these financial statements.
30
If impairment is subsequently reversed, the net book value of an asset (or a group of assets) is increased to the lower of the new
estimated recoverable amount and the net book value of the asset that would have been established had impairment not been
recognized in previous years. Reversals of impairment are recognized in income.
Investment properties
Investment properties include properties held for rental income, appreciation in value or both. Consequently, the cash flows
generated by investment properties are largely independent of other assets held by a Group Company.
Investment properties are valued using the purchase price model.
Rights of perpetual usufruct of land
Land owned by the State Treasury, local government units or their associations may be subject to perpetual usufruct. Perpetual
usufruct is a special type of property right entitling natural or legal persons to use land to the exclusion of others. The perpetual
lessee may also dispose of its right. The right of perpetual usufruct is granted for a period of 99 years or, in exceptional cases
where the economic purpose of perpetual usufruct does not require the land to be let for such a period for a shorter period,
however, no shorter than 40 years.
The Group has recognized the right of perpetual usufruct of land as a lease in accordance with IFRS 16. The right to use the leased
asset has been presented in accordance with its purpose in the balance sheet either as Investment properties or Property, plant
and equipment.
Leases
The Group as a lessee classifies a contract as a lease or as containing a lease if it transfers the right to control the use of an identified
asset for a given period in return for a consideration.
Where the Group acts as a lessor, a contract is treated as a finance lease if substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of
the underlying asset are transferred. If substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the underlying asset are not transferred,
a contract is treated as an operating lease.
The right to control the use of an asset used under a lease contract primarily means the right to obtain substantially all economic
benefits from the use of the asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset.
Risks consist of the possibility of losses due to underutilization of capacity, loss of technical usefulness or changes in the level of
return achieved due to changes in economic conditions. Benefits may include the expectation of profitable operation of the asset
over its useful life and the expectation of a profit arising from an increase in its value or the realization of the residual value.
At the inception, the Group recognizes the right-of-use asset and the corresponding lease liability. The right of use is initially
measured at cost, consisting of the initial lease liability, initial direct costs, an estimate of the costs expected to be incurred in
dismantling the underlying asset and lease payments made at or before the inception, less lease incentives.
The Group depreciates the right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis from the inception to the end of the useful life of the right-of-
use asset or the end of the lease term, whichever is earlier. If there are indications to do so, the right-of-use assets are tested for
impairment in accordance with IAS 36.
At the inception, the Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments outstanding, using the interest
rate on the lease if this can be readily determined. Otherwise, the incremental borrowing rate of the lessee is applied.
Lease payments included in the value of the lease liability consist of fixed lease payments, variable lease payments dependent on
an index or rate, amounts expected to be paid as the guaranteed residual value and call option payments if it is reasonably certain
that the option will be exercised. In subsequent periods, the lease liability is reduced by repayments made and increased by accrued
interest. The valuation of the lease liability is updated to reflect changes in the contract and the reassessment of the lease term, the
exercise of the call option, the guaranteed residual value or index- or rate-dependent lease payments. In principle the
remeasurement of the liability is recognized as an adjustment of the right-of-use asset.
The Group applies the practical expedients permitted by the standard to short-term leases and leases where the underlying asset
is of low value. For such contracts, instead of recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, lease payments are recognized in
the profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Shares in non-consolidated subordinated entities
Shares in non-consolidated subordinated entities are initially measured at cost. As at the balance sheet date, investments in
subordinated entities are stated at cost less impairment losses.

(all amounts in PLN thousand, unless stated otherwise)

31
Financial assets
The Group classifies each financial asset upon initial recognition into of one of four categories of financial assets, which are
distinguished based on the Group’s business model for managing the assets and the characteristics of the contractual cash flows:
assets measured at amortized cost after initial recognition;
assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income after initial recognition;
assets measured at fair value through profit or loss;
hedging financial instruments.
The classification of financial assets is made upon initial recognition and can only be changed if the business model for managing
financial assets changes. The principal models for managing financial assets include the model of holding for receiving contractual
cash flows, the model of holding for receiving contractual cash flows and selling, and the model of holding for purposes other than
those indicated in the two preceding models (in principle, it is a model of holding assets for disposal). The Group adopts the principle
that the sale of a financial asset just before its maturity does not constitute a change in the business model from holding for receiving
contractual cash flows to holding for receiving contractual cash flows and selling or holding for other purposes.
The Group does not apply hedge accounting and, therefore, the regulations of IFRS 9 in this respect do not apply to it.
The Group assesses the credit risk associated with assets constituting financial instruments based on the expected loss model. The
primary method of determining impairment losses under the expected loss model is the method under which the Group monitors
changes in the level of credit risk associated with a given financial asset in relation to its initial recognition and classifies financial
assets into one of the three stages of impairment loss determination: stage 1 - financial assets serviced on an ongoing basis (applied
to assets if their credit risk has not materially increased since initial recognition); stage 2 - financial assets with deteriorated servicing
(applied if credit risk has increased materially since initial recognition, while there is no objective evidence of impairment); stage 3
- financial assets not serviced (applied when there is objective evidence of impairment).
The Group applies the simplification permitted by IFRS 9 (using an allowance matrix, based on historical data adjusted for the impact
of future factors). The matrix is created on the basis of historical data. The Group does not apply the matrix separately to receivables
portfolios as its business is fairly homogeneous. The Group’s customers are mainly large multinational companies that settle their
liabilities on time. The Group uses quarterly ageing for years X-1 and X-2 in relation to the year for which allowances are estimated.
In addition to the allowances calculated according to the matrix, the Group also calculates allowances for receivables on a case-by-
case basis on the basis of an expert analysis of information on receivables considered to be lost or at risk, carried out by the finance
department. These are usually unique events that are not indicative of the Group’s operations and business environment, but only
of a delay in settlement of a particular customer’s receivables.
Financial liabilities
A financial liability is each liability being:
a contractual obligation to issue cash or another financial asset to another entity or exchange financial assets or liabilities with
another entity on potentially unfavourable terms;
a contract which will be or may be settled in own equity instruments of the entity and is a non-derivative instrument from which
an obligation arises or may arise for the entity to deliver a variable number of its own equity instruments, or a derivative
instrument which will be or may be settled other than through exchanging a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for
a fixed number of own equity instruments of the entity. For this purpose, pre-emptive rights, options and warrants to purchase
a fixed number of an entity’s own equity instruments in exchange for a fixed amount of cash in any currency are equity
instruments if the entity offers pro rata pre-emptive rights, options and warrants to all current owners of the same class of the
entity’s non-derivative equity instruments.
The Group companies classify each component of financial liabilities upon initial recognition as:
financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss;
other financial liabilities measured at amortized cost.
Financial liabilities are initially stated at fair value plus transaction costs, which can be directly attributed to the financial liability, for
financial liabilities not carried at fair value through profit or loss.
Inventories
The initial cost of inventories includes all costs (the cost of purchase, production and other) incurred in bringing inventories to their
present location and condition. The purchase price of inventories comprises the purchase price plus import duties and other taxes
(not subsequently recoverable from the tax authorities), transport, loading, unloading and other costs directly related to the
acquisition of the inventories, less discounts, rebates and other similar reductions. Inventories are stated at the lower of the initial
cost (the cost of purchase or production) and the net realizable value. The net realizable value corresponds to the estimated selling
price less any costs necessary to complete production and the costs of bringing the inventories to market or finding a buyer (i.e.
selling, marketing, etc.). For inventories, cost is determined using the “weighted average” method.

32
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are measured in the books of account at the value corresponding to the transaction prices adjusted for
appropriate impairment allowances under the expected losses model.
The value of receivables corresponding to the revenue from the sale of products, which arose and were recognized during the
reporting period and were reported after the end of the period (in accordance with the contracts concluded), is presented in trade
receivables.
Prepayments and accruals
The Group recognizes deferred income for the purpose of allocating such income to future reporting periods, when the income is
realized.
In the CD PROJEKT RED segment, deferred income includes proceeds received or due from royalties on pre-orders for digital
distribution of games, or advances on royalties and advances on goods received from distributors, as well as deferred settlements
of subsidies.
In the GOG.COM segment, deferred income includes revenue from pre-ordered sales of products with release dates in future
periods and deferred settlements with customers of the online shop within the so-called GOG Portfolio.
Accruals are liabilities falling due for goods or services that have been received or provided, invoiced or formally agreed with the
supplier.
The Group companies recognize costs that have been incurred in advance but relate in whole or in part to subsequent periods in
prepayments and deferred costs.
In the GOG.COM segment, the GOG Company acquires distribution rights which are initially treated as Deferred Costs. This initial
recognition relates to fees for the so-called minimum guarantees - these are contractual amounts paid to the owner of vested rights
after the conclusion of the contract. Minimum guarantees are charged to the cost of goods sold upon commencing the sales. Thus,
the costs associated with minimum guarantees are correlated with sales revenue.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash consists of cash in hand, demand deposits and bank deposits with a maturity of up to three months. Cash equivalents are
short-term investments with high liquidity, easily exchangeable for specific amounts of cash and exposed to insignificant risk of
value fluctuations.
Outstanding overdrafts are presented in cash flows from financing activities under Loans and advances.
Assets held for sale and discontinued operations
Non-current assets (and groups of net assets) classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair
value less costs to sell.
Non-current assets (and groups of net assets) are classified as designated for disposal if it is probable that their carrying value will
be recovered through disposal rather than through their continued use. This condition is considered met only if the sale transaction
is highly probable and the asset (or a group of net assets designated for disposal, a disposal group) is available in its current
condition for immediate sale. An asset is classified as designated for disposal under the assumption that a Group Company’s
management intends to complete the transaction within one year from the moment of changing the classification.
Equity
Equity is recorded in the accounting books by type of equity component and in accordance with the binding regulations of the law
and the provisions of the Articles of Association of the Group Companies.
Share capital is shown at the nominal value in the amount consistent with the Parent Company’s Articles of Association and the
entry in the court register.
Supplementary capital is created from profits generated.
Share premium is created from the surplus of the issue price of shares above the nominal value, less issue costs. Issue costs
incurred on formation of a joint stock company or increasing share capital reduce supplementary capital.
Other reserves include Costs of the incentive programme, Reserve capital created for share buybacks and Revaluation reserve.

(all amounts in PLN thousand, unless stated otherwise)
The attached notes are an integral part of these financial statements.
33
Provisions for liabilities
Provisions for liabilities are recognized, when a Group Company has a current obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of past
events and it is probable that the discharge of the obligation will result in an outflow of the resources embodying the Group’s
economic benefits and a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. No provisions are recorded against future
operating losses.
A provision for restructuring costs is only recognized when a Group Company has announced a detailed and formal restructuring
plan to all stakeholders.
Employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits other than employment termination benefits and share-based payments are recognized as liabilities,
net of any amounts already paid, and simultaneously as an expense for the period, unless the benefit should be included in the
production cost of an asset. The Group does not offer participation in any post-employment benefit plans to its employees.
Based on the resolutions of the Parent Company’s General Meeting of 28 July 2020 and 22 September 2020, an incentive plan for
the years 2020-2025 for selected persons in the Parent Company and in Group companies was introduced. As part of the
implementation of the plan, a maximum of 4 000 000 entitlements, understood as a conditional right to take up subscription
warrants, entitling to take up shares in the Parent Company issued separately as part of a conditional share capital increase, or
alternatively to purchase, on preferential terms, the Parent Company’s treasury shares could be granted. However, due to the fact
that, among other things, the Incentive Plan for the years 2020-2025 lost its motivational and retention functions, as described in
detail in Note 39 “Employee Benefit Plans” below, the General Meeting adopted a resolution to discontinue implementing the plan.
As a result, the plan expired in full on 18 April 2023. Upon expiry of the plan, entitlements awarded as part of that plan to eligible
persons also expired.
Based on the resolutions of the Parent Company’s General Meeting of 18 April 2023, two new incentive plans for the financial years
2023-2027 were introduced on that date, replacing the Incentive Plan for 2020-2025: the Incentive Plan A and Incentive Plan B.
Entitlements awarded under these plans if the conditions set out in the plans are met shall be realized alternatively though either:
(i) offering participants to subscribe for warrants entitling them to subscribe for an identical number of shares in the Parent Company
issued as part of the conditional share capital increase, or (ii) offering participants to purchase from the Parent Company treasury
shares acquired by the Parent Company as part of a buy-back carried out for this purpose. Plans A and B are described in detail in
Note 39 “Employee Benefit Plans” below.
The incentive plans are accounted for in accordance with the principles of IFRS 2 Share-based Payment.
Loans granted
Loans granted are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate.
Trade and other payables
Trade payables are shown in the balance sheet at amortized cost. Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according
to their contractual economic content. An equity instrument is a contract giving the right to a share of the Group’s assets less all
liabilities.
Licences
The value of acquired distribution rights is recognized on the basis of invoices received as the balance of Deferred costs. This value
is increased by the amount of the uninvoiced parts of the minimum guarantees under the contracts concluded. The value of acquired
distribution rights is charged to expenses on a pro rata basis in relation to sales and, once the balance of Deferred costs is exceeded,
it is credited to Trade payables.
Payment of dividend
Dividends are recorded at the moment of establishing the rights of the Parent Company’s shareholders to their receipt.

Functional currency and presentation currency
Functional currency and presentation currency
The items contained in the financial statements are valued in the currency of the basic economic environment in which the Group
conducts operations (the functional currency”). The financial statements are presented in Polish zloty (PLN) which is the functional
and presentation currency of the Group and the Company.
Transactions and balances
Transactions expressed in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency based on the exchange rate as at the date
of transaction. Exchange gains and losses on the settlement of these transactions and on the valuation of monetary assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies as at the balance sheet date are recognized in the Income statement.
Critical accounting estimates and judgements
Professional judgement
As at the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the expected useful lives of internally generated intangible assets. In the
case of intangible assets for which it is possible to determine reliable estimates of the volume and value of the sales budget, the
Group amortizes the value of these projects based on the consumption of economic benefits related to the number of copies sold.
The premiere-linked nature of the game’s life cycle justifies the use of a reducing balance depreciation method, as the highest sales
volumes are achieved during the premiere period, which decline in subsequent periods. In the remaining cases, the Group
amortizes the value of the projects on a straight-line basis over three years. As the video game market is characterized by
technology rotation cycles, a three-year period is the maximum horizon over which the Group can assess whether and what impact
future technological changes will have on the value of an asset.
Uncertainty of estimates
The following are the key assumptions about the future and other key sources of uncertainties at the balance sheet date that carry
a significant risk of material adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the next financial year.
Impairment of assets
Impairment tests for assets such as goodwill and brand value require estimating the value in use of a cash-generating unit.
Estimating the value in use means forecasting the future cash flows expected to be generated by a cash-generating unit, and
requires determining a discount rate to be used in order to calculate the present value of these cash flows. The last test of the
CD PROJEKT corporate brand, The Witcher product brand and goodwill was carried out as at 31 December 2023. No impairment
of the brands or goodwill were identified. Impairment tests of shares in subsidiaries were also carried out as at 31 December 2023.
No impairment of the shares was identified.
Assumptions adopted in the valuation of the CD PROJEKT brand, The Witcher trademark and goodwill:
Trademarks Goodwill
Cash flow forecast period 2024-2027 (4 years) 2024-2027 (4 years)
Discount rate (WACC) 12.5% 12.5%
Growth rate (g) for residual value 3% 3%

Valuation of provisions
Provisions for retirement benefits and the share-based incentive plan were estimated using actuarial methods.
The Group creates provisions for performance-related remuneration and other bonuses. Provisions for performance-related
remuneration are created on an aggregate basis for individual employee groups. As a general rule, provisions are calculated
(depending on the employee group) on the basis of the net profit of the Group or of the operating segment. Provisions for
performance-related remuneration are calculated under the principle of recursion - the value of the provisions reduces the
underlying results accordingly.
The Group records provisions for refunds, expected adjustments to licence reports and costs not invoiced by suppliers by the
balance sheet date.
Deferred income tax asset
The Group companies recognize a deferred tax asset based on the assumption that a tax profit will be generated in the future,
enabling its utilization. Deterioration of tax results in the future might result in the assumption becoming unjustified.
Deferred tax provision
The Group recognizes a deferred tax provision based on the assumption that a future tax obligation will arise from taxable temporary
differences, leading to its utilization. In estimating deferred tax, the Group uses an income ratio calculated on the basis of the
following year’s budget to allocate positive and negative temporary differences.
Fair value of financial instruments
The fair value of financial instruments for which there is no active market is determined using appropriate valuation techniques. The
Group companies use professional judgement in selecting appropriate methods and assumptions.
Depreciation and amortization rates
The depreciation and amortization rates are established based on the expected useful lives of property, plant and equipment and
intangible assets. The Group companies verify the adopted useful lives on an annual basis, taking into account the current estimates.
For projects for which reliable estimates of sales volumes and budgets can be determined, the Group determines the amortization
method for the published titles based on historical sales data of previous own titles (no useful predictive sales data of other
publishers’ titles is available) and, to a lesser but significant extent, professional judgement.

CD PROJEKT RED
GOG.COM
CD PROJEKT RED
The scope and model of operations
The operations of the CD PROJEKT RED studio are executed within the structures of CD PROJEKT S.A. (the domestic holding
company of the CD PROJEKT Group), CD PROJEKT Inc. (USA) and CD PROJEKT RED Vancouver Studio Ltd. (Canada).
These operations consist of creating and publishing video games, selling licences for their distribution, coordinating sales
promotions, and the production, sales licensing and releasing the accompanying products which use the brands owned.
The production and publishing of the computer games executed by the CD PROJEKT RED studio is based on the brands owned by
the Parent Company - the Witcher and Cyberpunk. The studio is known for its Cyberpunk 2077 game and the Witcher game series,
the flagship brands of CD PROJEKT RED. In addition to the said franchises, the studio started internal concept work on the third
franchise for a planned future video game with the code name Hadar.
As part of the publishing operations, the Parent Company is responsible for the design of the campaigns which promote its own
products and independently maintains direct communication with players via electronic media channels and social media and by
participating in industry events.
GOG.COM
The scope and model of operations
GOG.COM is one of the worlds most popular independent digital distribution platforms for computer games, which is distinguished
by offering digital products without security features that make it difficult for users to use the games they have purchased (DRM).
The platform is available in English, French, German, Russian, Chinese and Polish, offering customers not only a fully localized
website or games, but also (with the exception of the Russian version) dedicated customer service, technical support, direct
marketing activity in the language and popular local payment methods (in twelve currencies). On GOG.COM, games are available
for Windows PCs, as well as for macOS and Linux operating systems.
The operations of the GOG.COM segment consists of digital distribution of the games via own GOG.COM shop and GOG GALAXY
application. The platform makes it possible to purchase the game, pay for the game and download it to ones own computer; in
addition, the GOG GALAXY application enables, among other things, automatic updates, saving the game in the cloud, network
play, including between platforms, and is also responsible for GWENTs network functionalities, sales support and handling of
payments made in the PC version of the game.

Note 6. Discontinued operations
The Group did not discontinue any operations in the current year or in the previous year.
Note 7. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Parent
Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue, outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share
are calculated by dividing the net profit for the period attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Parent Company (net of interest
on redeemable preference shares convertible to ordinary shares) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue
during the year (adjusted for the inflow of diluting options or warrants and diluting redeemable preference shares convertible into
ordinary shares).
During the 12 months ended 31 December 2023, the diluting instruments comprised entitlements granted under the incentive plans,
entitling the holder to take up shares in the Parent Company in the future. For information on the number of entitlements granted,
see Note 39.

Impairment tests of goodwill require estimating the value in use of the cash-generating unit. In estimating the value in use, the
Parent Company prepared forecasts of the future cash flows to be generated by the cash-generating unit and determined the
discount rate to be applied to calculate the present value of these cash flows. The Parent Company performed the most recent
impairment test of goodwill as at 31 December 2023. The Parent Company identified no impairment of goodwill.
Note 13. Investment properties
The Parent Company owns a real estate complex located at ul. Jagiellońska 74 and 76 in Warsaw. Given that a part of the properties
purchased is leased out to third parties, including CD PROJEKT Group companies, the Group decided to partly classify these
properties as investment properties. The remaining part of the property is used for own needs of the activities conducted.
The Group measures the properties purchased at cost less accumulated depreciation.
The last appraisal report by the expert surveyor, for the buildings recognized as investment properties, was prepared on the basis
of unit prices for the construction of buildings with the most similar parameters included in the Bistyp Catalogue of Unit Prices for
Works and Investment Facilities 2021. The valuation of the individual assets amounted to PLN 60 692 thousand for the buildings at
ul. Jagiellońska 74 and PLN 13 212 thousand for the buildings at ul. Jagiellońska 76.

Leases of low-value assets and short-term leases
The Group concluded lease contracts for office equipment (multifunctional photocopiers, kitchen appliances) and residential
premises which potentially meet recognition criteria for leases under the new IFRS 16. However, the Group considered these
contracts to be short-term leases and leases of low-value assets and decided not to apply the requirements for leases to these
assets, as permitted by paragraph 5 of the standards. In such cases, lease payments are charged to costs of the period to which
they relate, either on a straight-line basis or in some other systematic way that reflects the distribution of costs over the life of the
contract (information on the cost of these leases incurred in the period from 1 January to 31 December 2023 is included in Note 2).
As at 31 December 2023 and 31 December 2022, future minimum payments in respect of irrevocable short-term leases and leases
of low-value assets were as follows:
31.12.2023 31.12.2022

Using statistical methods, the actuary built and calibrated a Multiple Decrement model of employee mobility for the Group
companies. Historical data provided by the Group companies was used to calibrate the model. Based on publicly available statistical
data and actuarial studies, the mobility rate was assumed to decrease with age. The valuation model shows significant sensitivity
to changes in mobility parameters and should, therefore, be continuously reviewed and updated for subsequent estimates.

In accordance with the requirements of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, the Parent Company analysed the business model for
managing financial assets and examined the characteristics of contractual cash flows for each component of the bond portfolio,
and concluded that:
the purpose of investments in domestic and foreign Treasury bonds and domestic and foreign bonds guaranteed by the
governments is to hold them to maturity and to collect contractual cash flows;
investment mandates for managing the foreign Treasury bonds portfolio allow selling bonds before maturity as part of
the adopted strategy;
all bonds purchased meet the SPPI test.
As a result of the analysis conducted, purchased bonds were classified into two financial asset management models which differ in
terms of the entity managing the bond portfolio. Polish Treasury bonds and bonds guaranteed by the Polish State Treasury are
measured at amortized cost, because they are held to collect contractual cash flows. Foreign Treasury bonds and foreign bonds
guaranteed by foreign states are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income because of the investment mandate
which allows the possibility of the portfolio being managed by an Asset Manager.
In accordance with the requirements of IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement, the Group analysed the valuation of the financial
instruments measured at amortized cost in the consolidated statement of financial position in order to determine their fair values
and their classification in the fair value hierarchy.
Listed debt securities were classified to Level 1. They include State Treasury bonds and bonds guaranteed by the State Treasury
whose fair value was determined on the basis of a market valuation provided by the brokerage office as part of the applicable
agreement for the provision of brokerage services.

Polish Treasury bonds and bonds guaranteed by the Polish State Treasury 565 473 219 713
Other items of financial assets and financial liabilities were classified to Level 3.
With reference to equity shares in other entities, the Group estimates the fair value of the shares held using the method of
forecasting the future cash flows to be generated by a cash-generating unit and requires determining a discount rate to be used in
order to calculate the present value of these cash flows. In justified cases, the Group assumes historical cost as an acceptable
approximation of the fair value.
The Group did not measure the fair value of trade receivables and payables, cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits over
3 months and loans granted at variable interest rates as their carrying amount is considered by the Group to be a reasonable
approximation of fair value.
There were no movements between the Levels in the fair value hierarchy in the Group during the reporting period or in the
comparative period.

Financial risk management objectives and policies
Credit risk
Risk description: The Group is exposed to credit risk in connection with sales with deferred payment, royalty income customarily
reported and settled after the end of the period for which the royalties are due, in connection with advance payments and also in
connection with cooperation with banks, electronic payment operators or government bond issuers. There are instances where the
concentration of sales to the largest customers exceeds 10% of the Group’s total sales revenue.
Actions taken: I
n order to reduce the credit risk related to buyers, the Group is constantly monitoring the settlement of receivables,
and debt collection in difficult cases is outsourced to external specialized entities. As part of its efforts to mitigate the credit risk of
financial institutions, the Group works with several banks, diversifying the allocations of its cash and bank deposits, both by entity
and geographical area. In addition, the Parent Company, which holds the majority of the Group’s funds, may invest part of its
reserves in the following types of bonds in accordance with the policy adopted in March 2022:
domestic Treasury bonds of the Republic of Poland;
domestic bonds secured with a guarantee of the State Treasury of the Republic of Poland;
foreign Treasury bonds issued by countries with a rating no lower than Aa3 according to Moody’s rating agency;
foreign bonds secured with a guarantee of countries with a rating no lower than Aa3 according to Moody’s rating agency.
As a result of adopting the credit rating criterion for the country of bond issuers, investments in these financial instruments are
exposed to a very low risk and the expected credit losses are immaterial.
Liquidity risk
Risk description: Inadequate capital and liquidity risk management may generate liquidity risk resulting in delays or inability to settle
liabilities.
Actions taken - managing liquidity risk: Capital and liquidity risk management in the CD PROJECT Group is aimed at ensuring the
financing of its activities, including the long-term investment projects implemented by the group.
Day-to-day liquidity management is carried out at the level of the individual companies, while the coordination and supervision of
long-term plans is carried out at the level of the Parent Company.
The pillars of liquidity risk management are as follows:
constantly maintained and updated short-term and long-term cash flow forecasts;
periodic verification, based on cash flow forecasts, of the achievement of liquidity risk management targets in the medium
term;
maintaining its own financial reserves the Group has no external interest-bearing debt from loans and borrowings
incurred or bonds issued;
the Parent Company may provide financing to subsidiaries through capital increases or loans;
the management of financial reserves (held in the form of cash, bank deposits, domestic and foreign Treasury bonds and
domestic and foreign bonds secured with guarantees of foreign governments) in the Parent Company is carried out taking
into account the maturity dates of the individual instruments, the ratings of the banks or issuers of the Treasury bonds
purchased, the interest rates or yields of the investments concerned and always respecting the principle of diversification
in the allocation of the accumulated financial reserves (both by entity and geographical area).
As at 31 December 2023, the Group held bank deposits with a carrying amount of PLN 507 026 thousand.

Currency risk
Risk description: Due to the global nature of the CD PROJEKT Group’s business, where the majority of revenue is generated in
foreign currencies, it is exposed to the risk of sudden changes in exchange rates, including in particular the risk of strengthening of
the Polish zloty.
The majority of publishing and distribution contracts to which the Parent Company is a party as the game developer are based on
settlement in foreign currencies mainly in USD and EUR. Therefore, a weakening of the USD or EUR exchange rate in relation to
PLN is an undesirable scenario for the Group, resulting in a reduction of sales revenue. The revenues of GOG sp. z o.o. are
generated in 13 currencies, the highest in USD and smaller in EUR, PLN, GBP, CAD, AUD and others, while costs are mainly incurred
in USD and PLN. Therefore, as a rule, a weakening of the exchange rate of the currencies in which GOG.COM earns its sales
revenue in relation to the USD or PLN is an undesirable scenario for the CD PROJECT Group, causing a drop in revenues and results
of operations realized by GOG sp. z o.o.
The Group companies also purchase goods and services in transactions settled in foreign currencies - in such cases, a weakening
of the PLN exchange rate against the relevant currency of the transaction may result in exchange rate group differences
unfavourable to the Group companies’ results.
The Parent Company invests some of its financial resources in foreign bonds denominated in foreign currencies, and it may also
hold cash and cash equivalents or deposits in foreign currencies (for more information, see sections on credit risk and liquidity risk).
Actions taken: The Group companies seek to minimize currency exposure in its operations, but nevertheless it is not possible to
completely eliminate the currency risk that is incumbent on the Group. In the case of the risk associated with the Parent Company’s
investment in foreign bonds denominated in foreign currencies, exposure to exchange rate fluctuations is mitigated by entering
into forward sales of the relevant currency symmetrical to each currency feed to the investment account. Similarly, the Parent
Company hedges the value of cash invested in USD deposits by entering into forward sales of the currency symmetrical to each
term deposit.
The value of forward contracts concluded as at 31.12.2023 is presented in the table below.

In accordance with the adopted policy of diversifying investments of current cash surpluses, the Parent Company may hold up to
15% of total funds in unhedged positions in USD and EUR. As at 31 December 2023, the Parent Company had an unhedged position
in foreign currencies amounting to USD 1 872 thousand and EUR 297 thousand.
GOG Sp. z o.o. hedges the cash flows associated with concluded or future foreign currency trade transactions by entering into
forward currency transactions. Hedging transactions are, in principle, concluded at the gross value of GOG’s currency exposure,
i.e. at the full amount of the respective future cash flows.
Interest rate and inflation risk
Risk description: The condition of the global economy, including the effects of global political, economic or military crises or the
development of pandemics, may affect the CD PROJEKT Group’s business, financial position and results. A negative situation
related to the impact of a pandemic, either macroeconomic or political, may result in difficulties in access to finance, changes in the
prices of goods, services and products, conservative consumer attitudes or the emergence of restrictions on sales opportunities as
a consequence of economic sanctions or local regulations introduced.
The monetary policy pursued by the National Bank of Poland in shaping the level of interest rates and consequently influencing the
level of inflation in Poland may affect the financial income achieved by the Group. As surplus cash is invested in, among other things,
bank deposits and bonds, a drop in interest rates may have a negative impact on the Group’s finance income. Moreover, financial
income generated from bank deposits or investments in bonds in relation to the Group’s cash reserves may not compensate for
losses caused by inflation.
A change in the level of interest rates affects the carrying value of the bonds of foreign governments and bonds secured with their
guarantee, which are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. An increase in interest rates may also reduce
the valuation of the Group’s assets (e.g. shares in related entities, brands) carried out as part of impairment tests, potentially leading
to the need to restate their value in the books of account.
Actions taken: The Group companies strive to monitor the impact of the global situation on the markets in which they operate and,
as far as possible, to adapt their operations as much as possible to the changes observed. The Parent Company mitigates some of
the risk associated with interest rate volatility and market inflation expectations by investing a portion of its cash surpluses in
deposits, Polish Treasury bonds, bonds secured by the State Treasury guarantee and foreign Treasury bonds or foreign bonds
guaranteed by governments of the countries with credit ratings no lower than Aa3 according to Moody’s, while diversifying the
maturities of the aforementioned instruments. In addition, some of the bonds may be floating rate securities.
While maintaining the safety of accumulated funds, in practice it may not be possible to fully protect the value of financial reserves
held against the negative effects of inflation.
Sensitivity analysis
In accordance with the requirements of IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, the Parent Company performed an analysis for
the identified market risks showing what impact changes in the relevant risk factors would have on the results of operations and
equity.
Due to the linear nature of the impact of a change in a factor on the value of the Group’s profit or loss and equity, 5 pps were
adopted for the analysis of the impact of changes in exchange rates and 1 pp for the analysis of the impact of changes in interest
rates and fair value.
The tables below show the sensitivity of profit before tax and equity to the risks identified by the Group over the horizon to the date
of the next financial statements, assuming that other risk factors remain constant.

Note 38. Capital management
The principal objective of the capital management within the Group is to maintain sound credit rating and safe capital ratios to
support the Group’s operating activities, increasing its shareholder value.
The Group manages the capital structure and introduces changes to it based on changes in economic circumstances. In order to
maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Parent Company may pay a dividend to the shareholders, return capital to the
shareholders or issue new shares. The Group monitors its capital balances using the leverage ratio, which is calculated as the ratio
of net debt to total equity plus net debt. As at 31 December 2023, the Group’s balance of cash and cash equivalents was greater
than its trade and other payables, thus the Group had a positive net cash balance.
Note 39. Employee benefit programmes
Incentive plan for the years 20202025
Based on the resolutions of the Parent Company’s General Meeting of 28 July 2020 and 22 September 2020, another edition of
the incentive plan was introduced for 2020-2025. In accordance with the adopted assumptions, a maximum of 4 000 000
entitlements, understood as a conditional right to take up subscription warrants, entitling to take up shares in the Parent Company
issued separately as part of a conditional share capital increase, or alternatively to purchase, on preferential terms, the Parent
Company’s treasury shares were to be granted as part of the implementation of the plan. Taking up and exercising of rights from
the subscription warrants or, as the case may be, purchasing the Parent Company’s shares by the eligible persons was to be
conditional upon the Parent Company’s determination that the objectives and criteria of the plan have been met. For more
information on the principles of the incentive plan for the years 2020-2025, see e.g.
Management Board Report on CD PROJEKT
Group activities in 2021.
Based on the results achieved during the functioning of the plan and the assumptions for the subsequent years of the plan, the
Management Board of the Parent Company assessed the possibility of achieving the performance targets set in the plan over the
entire period of the plan duration and revised the estimates, considering it most likely that the performance targets would not be
achieved over that period. In connection with the above, taking into consideration the fact that the plan had lost its motivational and
retention functions, the General Meeting of the Parent Company adopted Resolution no. 5 concerning discontinuation of the
incentive plan for the financial years 2020-2025. Due to the fact that entry into force of that resolution was conditional upon the
General Meeting adopting specific resolutions on the introduction of a new incentive plan, the resolution concerning discontinuation
of the Plan for 2020-2025 became effective on 18 April 2023 and resulted in expiry of the Plan in its entirety.
In 2022 and during the reporting period, no new entitlements were granted under the Incentive Plan for the years 2020-2025. As
at 18 April 2023, 2 113 000 entitlements granted remained in the Incentive plan for 2020-2050. As stated in the Incentive Plan
Regulations for the years 2020-2025, in the event of the expiry of the incentive plan, the entitlements granted under the plan to
the eligible persons will also expire. Detailed data on entitlements awarded under the Incentive Plan for the years 2020-2025 in
previous financial years and their valuation is available in previous interim financial statements of the Parent Company and the
Group.
Incentive plans for the years 20232027
Based on the resolutions of the Parent Company’s General Meeting of 28 July 2020, two new incentive plans for the financial years
2023-2027 were introduced on that date, replacing the Incentive Plan for 2020-2025: the Incentive Plan A and Incentive Plan B.
Incentive Plan A
The Incentive Plan A is addressed to persons who are not members of the Management Board of the Parent Company. The
assumptions are that the entitlements in this plan will be granted in each of the financial years 2023-2027 (i.e. in five phases).
A maximum of 1 500 000 entitlements may be granted under the entirety of the Incentive Plan A. The entitlements will be realized
alternatively through: (i) offering participants to subscribe for warrants entitling them to subscribe for an identical number of shares
in the Parent Company issued as part of the conditional share capital increase, or (ii) offering participants to purchase from the
Parent Company treasury shares acquired by the Parent Company as part of a buy-back carried out for this purpose. Taking up and
exercising of rights from the subscription warrants or, as the case may be, purchasing the Parent Company’s shares by the
participant under Incentive Plan A shall be conditional upon meeting the loyalty criterion (understood as participants of Incentive
Plan A remaining in a legal relationship with the Parent Company or its related entity during the vesting period). The price of taking
up or acquiring the Parent Company’s shares as part of executing entitlements under Plan A shall correspond to the nominal value
of the Parent Company’s shares. The vesting period shall be 3 years as a minimum in each case.
By the date of publication of this report, 100 444 entitlements were granted as part of Phase 1 of the Incentive Plan A (in 2023), of
which 94 051 entitlements remain active.

Measurement date
During 2023, the Parent Company granted entitlements to participate in the plan in four tranches, in accordance with the relevant
resolutions of the Management Board.
The fair value of the entitlements awarded in 2023 was in each case measured as at the grant date using financial engineering
methods and numerical methods (which are a development of the so-called Black-Scholes-Merton model) by a licensed actuary
entered in the register of actuaries maintained by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority in accordance with the information in
the table above.
Classification of measurement conditions
The conditions related to completing paperwork (including the correct filing of documents within a certain time limit), loyalty
conditions and other conditions unrelated to the share price were treated as non-market conditions. The condition of living to the
date of exercising the entitlement rights and other similar conditions were treated likewise.
Number of shares as at the grant date
As at the date of granting entitlements under the Incentive Plan A in 2023 (phase 1), the Parent Company had 100 770 800 shares
in issue.
Incentive Plan B
Incentive Plan B is addressed to both persons who are members of the Parent Company’s Management Board and persons who
are not members of the Management Board. The assumptions are that the entitlements in this plan will be granted in each of the
financial years 2023-2027 (i.e. in five phases). A maximum of 3 500 000 entitlements may be granted under the entirety of the
Incentive Plan B. The entitlements will be realized alternatively through: (i) offering participants to subscribe for warrants entitling
them to subscribe for an identical number of shares in the Parent Company issued as part of the conditional share capital increase,
or (ii) offering participants to purchase from the Parent Company treasury shares acquired by the Parent Company as part of a buy-
back carried out for this purpose. Taking up and exercising the rights from the subscription warrants or, as the case may be,
purchasing the Parent Company’s shares by the eligible persons under Incentive Plan B will be conditional upon the Parent
Company determining that the performance condition (for 70% of the entitlements), the market condition (for 30% of the
entitlements), and in selected cases the individual conditions and, in each case, the loyalty condition (understood as participants of
Incentive Plan A remaining in a legal relationship with the Parent Company or its related entity during the vesting period) have been
met. The base price of subscription for or purchase of the Parent Company’s shares as part of exercising the entitlements under
Plan B will correspond to the price of the Parent Company’s shares at the close of the last trading session preceding the date of
the relevant resolution on the participant’s inclusion in the plan. The plan provides for the possibility to reduce the price of
subscription for or purchase of the shares with a simultaneous proportional reduction in the number of rights to be exercised by the
participant. The base vesting period corresponds to four consecutive financial years starting from the year in which the relevant
phase commenced (with the possibility of shortening to three financial years for performance-related entitlements in the event of
a possible faster achievement of the four-year performance target over a three-year period).
By the date of publication of this report, 662 000 entitlements were granted as part of Phase 1 of the Incentive Plan B (in 2023), of
which 656 000 entitlements remain active.

(all amounts in PLN thousand, unless stated otherwise)
The attached notes are an integral part of these financial statements.
100
Performance-related condition 70% of entitlements awarded under a given phase of the Incentive Plan B
The fulfilment of the performance-related condition means achieving, in the relevant vesting period, a specific result, understood
as the sum of the consolidated net profits on continued operations of the CD PROJEKT Group plus the cost of valuation of
entitlements awarded under a relevant phase of the Incentive Plan B recognized by the CD PROJEKT Group entities in the same
period.
The performance-related condition for entitlements awarded in the first phase of the Incentive Plan B for the years 2023-2026 (in
the financial year 2023) is PLN 2 billion.
For each of the successive phases of the Incentive Plan B starting in the financial years 2025, 2026 and 2027, the performance-
related condition for entitlements awarded in these phases for the relevant periods of 4 financial years will be determined by
resolutions of the General Meeting of the Parent Company (based on a motion of the Management Board of the Parent Company).
Market-related condition 30% of entitlements awarded under a given phase of the Incentive Plan B
The fulfilment of the market-related condition means achieving a change in the Parent Companys share price on the Warsaw Stock
Exchange (WSE) in such a manner that the change in the level of the Parent Company's share price expressed as a percentage,
determined on the basis of the Parent Company’s share price at closing of the last trading session of the WSE of the most recent
financial year which is subject to verification for purposes of the performance-related condition referred to above in relation to the
Parent Company’s share price at closing of the last trading session of the WSE in the year preceding the year of the relevant phase
of the Incentive Plan B, will be higher than or equal to the change, expressed as a percentage and increased by 10 percentage
points, in the level of the WIG (WSE Index) index in the same period.

Measurement date
During 2023, the Parent Company granted entitlements to participate in the plan in one tranche.
The fair value of the entitlements awarded in 2023 was in each case measured as at the grant date using financial engineering
methods and numerical methods (which are a development of the so-called Black-Scholes-Merton model) by a licensed actuary
entered in the register of actuaries maintained by the Polish Financial Supervision Authority in accordance with the information in
the table above.
Classification of measurement conditions
The condition relating to the change in the price of the Parent Company’s shares in relation to the change in the WIG index and the
condition that the market price on the exercise date will be above the exercise price have been treated as market conditions. The
conditions relating to net profit growth were treated as non-market conditions. The conditions related to completing paperwork
(including the correct filing of documents within a certain time limit), loyalty conditions and other conditions unrelated to the share
price were treated as non-market conditions. The condition of living to the date of exercising the entitlement rights and other similar
conditions were treated likewise.
Number of shares as at the grant date
As at the date of granting entitlements under the Incentive Plan B in 2023 (phase 1), the Parent Company had 100 770 800 shares
in issue.

Note 40. Transactions with related entities
Terms and conditions of transactions with related entities
The terms and conditions of intra-group transactions were determined on the arm’s length basis. The essence of this principle is
based on the premise that the terms and conditions agreed in transactions between related parties should not differ from those
that would be agreed between independent parties in a comparable situation. Controlled transactions concluded by related entities
which belong to the CD PROJEKT Group are tested for compliance with the arm’s length basis based on recommendations and
methods provided for in the OECD Guidelines and in the national legislation.

Note 41. Mergers and changes in the structure of the CD PROJEKT Group
Merger between subsidiaries
During the reporting period, two business combinations involving business entities in the Group were registered:
Registration of the merger of the Company with its subsidiary - CD PROJEKT RED STORE sp. z o.o.
On 28 February 2023, the District Court for the Capital City of Warsaw in Warsaw entered in the Register of Businesses the merger
through acquisition of the Parent Company, as the surviving company, with its subsidiary CD PROJEKT RED STORE sp. z o.o. with
its registered office in Warsaw, as the target company. The merger was carried out in accordance with the merger plan announced
on 17 November 2022, i.e. by transferring all the assets of CD PROJEKT RED STORE sp. z o.o. to the Parent Company, without
increasing the share capital of the Parent Company, without issuing shares and without exchanging shares of the target company
for shares of the Parent Company due to the fact that the Parent Company holds 100% of the shares in the target company (the
procedure under Article 492 § 1 item 1 of the Commercial Companies Code (“CCC”) in connection with Article 516 § 6 of the CCC).
The business activities of the target company consisted of selling products relating to brands and games developed within the
Group through the CD PROJEKT RED GEAR online shop. The merger was intended to simplify the Group’s structure in view of the
plans to continue the activities of the target company in cooperation with a specialized external entity. The Management Board of
the Parent Company informed of the registration of the merger in its Current report no. 7/2023
.
Registration of the merger of the Parent Company with its subsidiary - SPOKKO sp. z o.o.
On 31 August 2023, the District Court for the Capital City of Warsaw in Warsaw entered in the Register of Businesses the merger
through acquisition of the Parent Company, as the surviving company, with its subsidiary SPOKKO sp. z o.o. with its registered office
in Warsaw, as the target company. The merger was carried out in accordance with the merger plan announced on 20 April 2023,
i.e. by transferring all the assets of SPOKKO sp. z o.o. to the Parent Company, without increasing the share capital of the Parent
Company, without issuing shares and without exchanging shares of the target company for shares of the Parent Company due to
the fact that the Parent Company holds 100% of the shares in the target company (the procedure under Article 492 § 1 item 1 of the
Commercial Companies Code (“CCC”) in connection with Article 516 § 6 of the CCC). SPOKKO sp. z o.o. was a development studio
specializing in executing projects for mobile devices and responsible for the development of The Witcher: Monster Slayer game
(the project closed as at 30 June 2023). According to the strategy adopted in October 2022, the Parent Company will focus on its
core business and implement mobile projects in collaboration with external partners. The Management Board of the Parent
Company informed of the registration of the merger in its
Current report no. 36/2023.
Business combinations of jointly controlled entities are not covered directly in the International Financial Reporting Standards,
therefore, when accounting for such transactions, the Parent Company uses a method which is based on the following assumptions:
assets and liabilities of the combining entities are measured at carrying amounts derived from the Company’s consolidated
financial statements. This means that goodwill previously recognized in the consolidated financial statements and all other
intangible assets recognized as part of accounting for the combination are moved to separate financial statements;
transaction costs relating to the business combination are recognized in the income statement (finance costs);
mutual balances of receivables/payables are eliminated;
any difference between the amount paid or transferred and net assets acquired (at amounts derived from consolidated
financial statements) is reflected in the equity of the acquiring company (the amount embedded in equity is not a component
of supplementary capital, and therefore is not subject to distribution);
the income statement presents the results of the combined entities from the moment the combination occurred, while the data
for prior periods of the year in which the combination took place are recognized in equity as retained earnings, and the data
for the year preceding the business combination are not restated.
Establishment of a new subsidiary
It did not occur during the reporting period.
Other changes in the structure of the CD PROJEKT Group made during the reporting period
Parent Company
Acquisition of the remaining shares in the subsidiary Spokko sp. z o.o.
On 31 January 2023, as a result of the Parent Company concluding agreements for the sale of shares with the other shareholders
of the subsidiary Spokko sp. z o.o., the Parent Company acquired from those shareholders a total of 135 shares in Spokko sp. z o.o.
with a nominal value of PLN 50.00 each, as a result of which the Parent Company became the owner of 100% (i.e. 1 089) of the
shares in that subsidiary.

Share capital decrease and redemption of treasury shares
On 18 April 2023, an Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company took place at which the shareholders decided, amongst others,
to decrease the share capital and voluntarily redeem 860 290 treasury shares with a par value of PLN 1 each. At that time, these
shares represented 0.85% of the share capital and comprised all treasury shares previously acquired by the Parent Company with
a view to their redemption as part of the buyback conducted between 5 and 24 October 2022 for the total amount of
PLN 99 943 thousand. The full contents of the resolutions passed by the Extraordinary General Meeting is available on the Parent
Company’s website.
On 26 June 2023, in connection with the resolutions passed, the District Court for the Capital City of Warsaw in Warsaw entered,
among other things, a decrease in the Parent Company’s share capital of PLN 860 290 and redemption of 860 290 of the Parent

and CD PROJEKT S.A. (the sole shareholder), the share capital of the former company was increased by USD 720 thousand, i.e. up
to USD 6 020 thousand. The increased value of the existing shares was paid up in full by a cash contribution made by the Parent
Company. On the same date, CD PROJEKT Inc. concluded an agreement with The Molasses Flood LLC and with one of its
shareholders at that time, whereby it acquired additional shares in The Molasses Flood LLC, as a result of which it became the
owner of 70.91% of its shares (i.e. 390 000 shares).
On 23 October 2023, the share capital of CD PROJEKT RED Inc. was increased by USD 1 100 thousand i.e. up to
USD 7 120 thousand. The increased value of the existing shares was paid up in full by a cash contribution made by the Parent
Company. The capital increase was intended to enable finalizing the last stage of the process of acquisition of shares in The
Molasses Flood LLC (payment of the third tranche).
On 27 October 2023, CD PROJEKT RED Inc. concluded an agreement based on which it acquired additional shares in The Molasses
Flood LLC from one of its shareholders at that time, thus becoming the owner of 81.82% of the shares in that company (i.e. 450 000
shares).
On 29 December 2023, the share capital of CD PROJEKT RED Inc. was increased by USD 800 thousand i.e. up to
USD 7 920 thousand. The increased value of the existing shares was paid up in full by a cash contribution made by the Parent

Molasses Flood LLC, acquired by CD PROJEKT RED Inc. based on agreements of 31 May 2023 and 27 October 2023.

Note 46. Tax settlements
Tax settlements and other areas of activities regulated by the tax law may be subject to inspections by administrative bodies which
are entitled to impose high penalties or sanctions. The lack of reference to established legal regulations in Poland results in
ambiguities and inconsistencies in the binding regulations. Frequent differences of opinion as to the legal interpretation of tax
regulations, both internally within the state bodies and between the state bodies and enterprises, result in areas of uncertainty and
conflict arising. Due to these factors, the tax risk in Poland is considerably higher than that usually existing in countries with better
developed tax systems.
In accordance with a general rule, tax settlements may be subject to inspections within 5 years from the end of the year in which
tax was paid.
Following the fulfilment of the criteria set out in Article 19 of the Act of 30 May 2008 on certain forms of innovation support
(consolidated text, Journal of Laws of 2022, item 2474), the Minister of Development and Technology, by decision No. DNP-
4241.27.2023.2 of 23 August 2023, maintained the status of a research and development centre granted to the Parent Company
by decision 4/CBR/18 of 19 June 2018. The status allows the Parent Company to use more broadly the research and development
relief provided for in the Act of 15 February 1992 on corporate income tax (consolidated text, Journal of Laws of 2023, item 2805,
as amended, hereinafter: the “CIT Act”).
Starting from the month following the submission of the CIT-8 tax return for the previous tax year, the Parent Company is taking
advantage of a relief in respect of an innovative employee. As part of the relief, it is possible to deduct the research and development
relief which the Parent Company did not deduct from the tax base in the tax return for the previous tax year. As a result of using tax
relief in respect of an innovative employee, the Parent Company is reducing tax advances remitted to the tax office in respect of
personal income tax and flat-rate personal income tax for employees performing research and development projects for the Parent
Company. At the same time, the amount of the research and development relief reported and not deducted is being reduced (the
reduction is the quotient of the personal income tax liability due and the corporate income tax rate).
With effect from 1 January 2019, provisions were introduced into the Act on corporate income tax granting preferential taxation at
the 5% tax rate for qualified income earned by a taxpayer from qualified intellectual property rights. Having met the prerequisites
and formal conditions contained in the said legislation, the Parent Company accounts for income (in respect of selected sources of
income) taking this tax relief into account.
Note 47. Post-balance sheet date events
On 20 February 2024, an Extraordinary General Meeting of the Parent Company took place at which a resolution was adopted,
concerning determination of the performance-related condition of PLN 3 billion in the Incentive Plan B for the financial years 2024-
2027. The performance-related condition corresponds to the sum of the consolidated net profits on continued operations of the
Group for the financial years 2024-2027 plus the cost of valuation of entitlements awarded under a relevant phase of the Incentive
Plan B recognized by the Group entities in the same period. All materials relating to the General Meeting, including the contents of
the resolutions adopted, are available on the Parent Company’s website
.
On 8 and 10 March 2024, as part of Phase 2 of the Incentive Plans A and B for the years 2023-2027, new entitlements were awarded
to the participants. As a result, 183 189 entitlements were awarded in Phase 2 of the Incentive Plan A and 723 500 in the Incentive
Plan B. All entitlements awarded as part of Phase 2 of the Plans are active as at the date of publication of this report.
