INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON THE AUDIT
For the General Meeng and Supervisory Board of DataWalk S.A.
Report on the audit of the annual separate financial statements
Opinion
We have audited the annual separate financial statements of DataWalk S.A.(the ‘Company’), which
comprise the statement of financial posion as at 31 December 2024 and the income statement,
together with the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity, statement of
cash flows for the financial year from 1 January to 31 December 2024 and selected notes, explanatory
notes and other explanatory notes to the financial statements (the ‘separate financial statements’).
In our opinion, the accompanying separate financial statements:
give a true and fair view of the property and financial posion of the Company as at 31
December 2024 and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in
accordance with required applicable rules of Internaonal Financial Reporng Standards
approved by the European Union (IFRSs) and with the accounng principles (policy) adopted;
comply in respect of the form and content with laws applicable to the Company and its Statute;
have been prepared based on properly maintained accounng records, in accordance with
chapter 2 of the Accounng Act of 29 September 1994 (i.e. Journal of Laws of 2023, item 120
as amended – the ‘Accounng Act’).
This opinion is consistent with the addional report to the Audit Commiee issued on 3.04.2025
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with the Naonal Auding Standards in the wording of the
Internaonal Auding Standards adopted by Resoluon No. 3430/52a/2019 of the Naonal Council of

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion.
Independence and ethics
We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Internaonal Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants (including Internaonal Independence Standards) of the Internaonal Ethics
Standards Board for Accountants adopted by resoluon of the Naonal Council of Statutory Auditors
No. 3431/52a/2019 of 25 March 2019 on the principles of professional ethics of statutory auditors,
as amended (the ‘IESBA Code’) and with other ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of
financial statements in Poland. We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilies in accordance with
those requirements and the IESBA Code. While conducng the audit, the key cerfied auditor and the
audit firm remained independent of the Company in accordance with the independence requirements
set out in the Act on Statutory Auditors and in the EU Regulaon.
Significant uncertainty related to going concern
We hereby draw your aenon to informaon included in the separate financial statement regarding
explanatory notes “Basis for the preparaon of the financial statements including a descripon of
circumstances indicang a threat to the going concern”.
The Management Board idenfied relevant events and circumstances that may cast serious doubts in
terms of the Companys ability to connue its acvies, including declining sales revenues, negave
cash flow on operaons, and unfavourable profitability raos. The Management Board took acons
aimed at improving the results and liquidity through the issuance of 500,000 series R shares within the
framework of authorized capital, under which the Company raised TPLN 27,500 from investors.
introducing a cost reducon scheme, opmizing workforce numbers and structures, and the number
of Company affiliates, increasing deployment team effecveness, and adapng the commercial
porolio to customer needs. The General Meeng of Shareholders granted the Management Board
the authorisaon to increase the Company's share capital by issuing up to 750,000 ordinary bearer
shares. The above authorisaon was granted unl 30.06.2027. As at the date of issuing the audit report,
the Management Board has not decided when it will exercise the granted authorisaon or to what
extent.
The Management Board reported that connuing development work associated with the planned
release of further, more technologically advanced Company product versions at the current stage of
Company development depends on third-party funding. The Management Board accepts that without
addional funding, the Company may have limited resources for further investments, which may lead
to delays in product development and connued expansion of the commercial porolio.

We believe that the possibility of implemenng the adopted assumpons is uncertain; although, it
cannot be ruled out that due to unforeseen costs or unforeseen reducon in the rate of acquiring
customers and revenues, increasing the demand for funding in each case, the Companys financial
standing will significantly deviate from the assumpons, which may adversely impact the Company’s
operaons, growth prospects, financial standing or results.
Our opinion does not include any modificaon in this regard.
Key Audit Maers
Key audit maers are those maers that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in
our audit of the separate financial statements of the current period. They include the most significant
assessed risks of material misstatement, including the assessed risks of material misstatement due to
fraud. These maers were addressed in the context of our audit of the separate financial statements
as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon and have summarised our reacon to these risks and
in cases where we deemed it necessary, we presented the most important observaons related to
these types of risks. We do not provide a separate opinion on these maers.
Key Audit Matter How our audit responded to this matter
R&D WORK
The Company conducts work in the field of IT
development related to the business asset
construed as the DataWalk plaorm.
In its separate financial statement, the Company
recognizes costs of completed development
work at PLN 16.934 thous. and costs of
development work in progress at PLN 2.099
thous., which accounts in total for 44% of the
balance sheet total as at 31 December 2024.
The issue was deemed as key audit maer due to
the scale of conducted work, their impact on the
Company’s operaons and the significance of the
amounts, as well as the fact that the manner of
their recognion in the separate nancial
statement requires a significant judgement of
the management.
Our procedures on the identified key audit
matter included, but were not limited to, the
following:
understanding and assessing the process of
identifying, acceptingand classifying
development work expenditure as intangible
assets,
verifying compliance of the Company’s
accounting policy with IAS 38,
detailed reliability study associated with the
correct allocation of development work
expenditure,
assessing the developed impairment tests in
terms of mathematical correctness, rationale
behind the key parameters adopted by the
Company, compliance of financial projections
with the approved financial plan, and the

Reference to disclosures in the separate financial
statements
Details on the capitalizaon of expenditure on
development work and expenditure incurred in
relaon to development work in progress
(including informaon on the results of the
conducted impairment test) described in notes
2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 of the separate financial
statement, and related to the accounng policy,
have been described in the explanatory note to

assumed level of cash flows and discount rate,
discussing key assumptions in the impairment
test with the Company’s Management Board
and other authorized persons,
analysing the disclosures in the separate
financial statement and related to completed
development work and expenditure on
development work in progress.
SALES REVENUES
The procedures we implemented at the stage of
unit study and data analysis made us assign the
risk associated with sales revenue idenficaon
and recognion.
The risk of incorrect revenue recognion may
result, in parcular, from fraud involving the
recognion of product and service sales revenue
in the wrong period.
The issue was deemed a key audit maer due to
the significance of the amounts, and the fact that
the manner of revenue idenficaon and
recognion in the separate nancial statement
requires significant esmates and company
management judgement.
Reference to disclosures in the separate financial
statements
The disclosures related to detailed informaon
on revenue items are presented in notes 23.1,
23.2, 23.3 and 23.4 of the separate financial
statement, and were described in the
explanatory notes to the separate financial
statement if related to the accounng policy.
Our procedures on the identified key audit
matter included, but were not limited to, the
following:
reviewing the accounting policy related to
revenue recognition and assessing the
compliance of these principles with IFRS 15,
understanding the sales process, as well as the
correctness of designing and implementing an
internal control system in this field,
analytical procedures involving, in particular,
monthly data and trend analyses,
studies in relation to sales recognized during a
year based on a selected sample,
verifying a sample of transactions from
December 2024/January 2025 and an
independent assessment of revenue
recognition correctness in the transaction
source documents,
confirming the receivable balance on a
selected sample of counterparties as at the
balance sheet date,
analysing unusual transactions and revenue
adjustments after the balance sheet date,

analysis of the disclosures in the separate
financial statements regarding revenue in
accordance with IFRS 15.
Responsibilies of the Companys Management and members of the Supervisory Board for the separate
financial statements
The Company’s Management is responsible for the preparaon of, based on properly maintained
accounng records, the separate financial statements that give a true and fair view of the property and
financial posion of the Company and of its financial performance in accordance with the required
applicable rules of Internaonal Financial Reporng Standards approved by the European Union, the
adopted accounng principles (policy) and with the legal regulaons applicable to the Company, as
well as the Company’s Statute, and is also responsible for such internal control as the Company’s
Management determines is necessary to enable the preparaon of the separate financial statements
that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the separate financial statements, the Company's Management is responsible for
assessing the Company's ability to connue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, maers
related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounng unless the Company’s
Management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operaons, or has no realisc
alternave but to do so.
The Company’s Management and members of the Company’s Supervisory Board are required to ensure
that the separate financial statements meet the requirements of the Accounng Act. The members of
the Companys Supervisory Board are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporng
process.
Auditor's responsibility for the audit of the separate financial statements
Our objecves are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the separate financial statements as
a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors
report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a
guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with NAS will always detect a material misstatement
when it exists. Misstatements may arise as a result of fraud or error and are considered material if they,
individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of
users taken on the basis of these separate financial statements.
The scope of the audit does not include assurance on the future profitability of the Company nor
efficiency or effecveness of conducng business maers now or in the future by the Company’s
Management.

As part of an audit in accordance with NAS, we use professional judgment and maintain professional
scepcism and we also:
idenfy and assess the risks of material misstatement of the separate financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks,
and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
The risk of not detecng a material misstatement resulng from fraud is higher than for one
resulng from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intenonal omissions,
misrepresentaons or override of internal control;
obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effecveness of the Companys internal control;
evaluate the appropriateness of accounng principles (policy) used and the reasonableness of
accounng esmates and related disclosures made by the Company’s Management;
conclude on the appropriateness of the Company’s Management’s use of the going concern
basis of accounng and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty
exists related to events or condions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability
to connue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are
required to draw aenon in our independent auditors report to the related disclosures in the
separate financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our
conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our independent
auditors report, however, future events or condions may cause the Company to cease to
connue as a going concern;
evaluate the overall presentaon, structure and content of the separate financial statements,
including the disclosures, and whether the separate financial statements represent the
underlying transacons and events in a manner that achieves fair presentaon.
We communicate to the Company’s Supervisory Board on, among other maers, the planned scope
and ming of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal
control that we idenfy during our audit.
We also provide to the Company’s Supervisory Board with a statement that we have complied with
relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and communicate to them all relaonships and
other maers that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable,
acons taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.
From the maers communicated to the Company’s Supervisory Board, we determine those maers
that were of most significance in the audit of the separate nancial statements of the current period
and are therefore the key audit maers. We describe these maers in our auditors report unless law

or regulaon precludes public disclosure about the maer or when, in extremely rare circumstances,
we determine that a maer should not be communicated in our report because the adverse

Other informaon, including Company Acvity Report
Other informaon
Other informaon comprises combined Group and Company Acvity Report as at 31 December 2024
(the ‘Company Acvity Report’) together with the representaon on applicaon of corporate
governance, which are separate elements of this Company Acvity Report, and the Annual Report for
the financial year ended 31 December 2024 (the ‘Annual Report’) (together the ‘Other informaon’).
Responsibilies of the Company’s Management and members of the Supervisory Board
The Companys Management is responsible for the preparaon of the Other informaon in accordance
with laws.
The Company’s Management and members of the Supervisory Board are required to ensure that the
Company Acvity Report with separate elements meets the requirements of the Accounng Act.
Auditor's responsibility
Our audit opinion on the separate financial statements does not include the Other informaon.
In connecon with the audit of the separate financial statements, our responsibility is to read the Other
informaon and, in doing so, to consider, whether the Other informaon is materially inconsistent with
the separate financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the audit or otherwise appears to
be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there are material
misstatements in this Other informaon, we are required to report that fact in our independent
auditors report.
We have nothing to report regarding Other Informaon.
Our responsibility in accordance with the Act on Statutory Auditors is also to issue an opinion on
whether the Company Acvity Report, to the extent not relevant to sustainability reporng, was
prepared in accordance with laws and that it is consistent with the informaon contained in the
separate financial statements. Moreover, we are required to issue an opinion on whether the Company
has included the required informaon in the representaon on applicaon of corporate governance.
We obtained the Company Acvity Report before the date of this audit report and the Annual Report
will be available aer that date. In the event that we idenfy a material misstatement in the Annual
Report, we are required to inform the Company's Supervisory Board.
