Note 1.2 Going concern
The separate financial statements were prepared under the assumption of continuing as a going concern during a period
of at least 12 months from the end of the reporting period in a significantly unaltered form and business scope,
and there are no reasons to suspect any intentional or forced discontinuation or significant limitation of its current activities.
As at the date of signing of the financial statements the Management Board is not aware of any facts or circumstances
that may cast doubt about the going concern in the foreseeable future.
Note 1.2.1 Monitored areas macroeconomic conditions
The following macroeconomic factors have the most significant impact on the activities and financial results of the Company:
copper and silver prices, prices of fuel, electricity and energy carriers as well as market interest rates, USD/PLN exchange
rate, inflation manifested by fluctuations in prices of materials and services, which results in a salary pressure.
Stock prices of copper, silver and gold as well as the USD/PLN exchange rate shape the amount of revenues from sales and
constitute a part of a market risk which is managed by the Company by, among others, derivatives transactions hedging the
price as well as the exchange rate. Moreover, they have a significant impact on some of the Company’s costs, while the
following increases in prices have a direct impact on the level of costs: fuels, energy carriers and electricity, caused by a high
inflation and disruptions in global supply chains. Furthermore, the level of market interest rates was reflected in the level
of discount rates used by the Company in the balance sheet measurement of assets and liabilities recognised in the
statement of financial position.
All of the aforementioned risk factors have an impact on the measurement of recoverable amount of the Company’s assets,
where of significance is not only the current volatility of commodities and exchange rates shaping the amount of revenues
and a significant part of costs, but above all volatility of forecasts on shaping these factors in subsequent periods, since they
have an impact on production and investment plans. Moreover, due to the long-term nature of mining and metallurgical
assets, the applied discount rate, which remains under the influence of market interest rates, is of particular importance.
The impact of macroeconomic factors on individual areas of operations as well as assets and liabilities of the Company was

Note 1.2.2 Monitored areas impact of COVID-19
The Company did not record a negative impact due to factors related to the COVID19 pandemic during the reporting
period, and risk related to their potential future impact is judged to be low.
Note 1.2.3 Monitored areas impact of war in Ukraine
Key risk categories
The most significant risk categories related to the war in Ukraine which impact the Company’s operations are:
interruptions in the supply chain and the availability of materials and components, fuels and energy on
international markets,
the possible recession of global economies as a result of the inflation and energy crisis, as well as the observed
economic slowdown,
volatility in copper and silver prices on the metals markets,
volatility in the USD/PLN exchange rate,
volatility in electrolytic copper production costs, including in particular due to the minerals extraction tax, changes
in the value of consumed, purchased copper-bearing materials and volatility in prices of energy carriers and
electricity,
the general uncertainty on financial markets,
continued price rises of fuels and energy carriers.
Evaluation of the key categories of risk which are impacted by the war in Ukraine underwent detailed analysis by the on-
going monitoring of selected information in the areas of production, sales, supply chain, personnel management and
finance, in order to support the process of reviewing the current financial and operating situation of KGHM Polska Miedź
S.A. As a result, some of the aforementioned threats had a negative impact on the Company’s operations and resulted in
among others an increase in costs as compared to 2022. Details regarding the results of the operating segments may be
found in Part 2.
Impact on the metals market and shares price
From the point of view of the Company, the war in Ukraine has an impact on market risk connected with volatility in metals
prices and stock exchange indices during the reporting period. The level of the Company’s market capitalisation continued
to be lower than its net assets and it is one of the factors implying, among others, an occurrence of an indication to conduct
impairment testing of its production assets. The Company’s share price at the end of 2023 rose by 10% compared to prices
at the end of the third quarter of 2023 and fell by 3% compared to the end of 2022, and at the close of trading on 29
December 2023 amounted to PLN 122.70. As a result of changes in share prices, the Company’s capitalisation decreased
from PLN 25 350 million at the end of 2022 to PLN 24 540 million at the end of 2023.
Uncertainty related to the volatility on the metals market, in particular copper, is the main factor influencing the level of
generated revenues and as a result it may have an impact on the financial result. The average price of copper during the
year 2023 amounted to 8 478 USD/t, which was more than assumed in the budget. However, as compared to the average
price of copper during 2022, it fell by 4%. Following the stable first quarter of 2023, the average price of copper in
subsequent quarters was in a downward trend, which was reflected in the decrease in copper price of 9% in the fourth
quarter as compared to the average price of copper in the first quarter of 2023. The average price of copper in the fourth
quarter of 2023 amounted to 8 158 USD/t, which was at the level assumed in the budget.
Impact on the fuels and energy carriers market as well as the availability of raw and other materials
Currently, KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. still does not experience a significantly negative impact of volatility of supply chains on
its business activities. It cannot be ruled out that the continuation of this armed conflict as well as the system of economic
sanctions will have a substantial negative impact in subsequent periods on suppliers and customers of the Company and
may lead to unfavourable deviations in the continuity of materials and services supply chains in the Company as well as in
the receipt of products, caused among others by logistical restrictions and the availability of materials (e.g. steel), fuels and
energy on international markets. Taking into consideration the continuity of supply of energy carriers (natural gas, coal,
coke), at the present time, KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. is not experiencing a negative impact from the suspension of Russian
natural gas, coal and coke deliveries, and is fully capable of maintaining the continued operation of the core production
business and of all production processes.
Impact on the activities of the Company
The geopolitical situation related to the direct aggression of Russia against Ukraine and the implemented system of
sanctions at the present time is not restricting the operations of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., while the risk of interruptions to
the going concern of the Company in this regard continues to be estimated as low.
Despite the high level of inflation observed in the global economy, leading to a tightening of monetary policy, demand for
the Company’s key products in 2023 remained at a good level.
With respect to the availability of capital and the level of debt, KGHM does not hold bank loans drawn from institutions
threatened with sanctions.

Preventive actions
There were no production stoppages in KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. which could have been directly attributable to the war in
Ukraine.
There have been no significant changes in the payment morality of customers, and therefore the receivables inflow to the
Company takes place without any major disturbances.
The strategy of diversification of suppliers applied by the Company and the use of alternative solutions effectively, at this
point in time, mitigates the risk of interruptions in the supply chains of raw and other materials.
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. continues to advance its investment projects in accordance with established schedules and
therefore does not identify any increase in risk related to their continuation due to the war in Ukraine.
No significant, negative impact of the aforementioned factors has been recorded on the continued operations of the core
production business, sales or continuity of the supply chain for materials and services yet. The Company continuously
monitors the global economic situation in order to assess its potential negative impact on the Company and to take
preventive actions to mitigate this impact.
Note 1.2.4 Monitored areas risks and hazards associated with climate change
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. is a conscious and responsible participant in the energy transition, and adaptation to climate
changes and the management of climate risk are of key importance to it. The Company continuously evaluates the risk
associated with the climate and the impact on its operations under the process of Corporate Risk Management of the KGHM
Polska Miedź S.A. Group, which was described in more detail in the Management Board’s report on the activities of KGHM
Polska Miedź S.A. and of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group in 2023, section 2.3 Risk management.
The negative impact of climate change on the activities of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. is analysed using the classification
presented below:
The Company is exposed to physical climate risk, arising from specified events, in particular related to violent and chronic
weather phenomena resulting from changes in the climate, such as rainless days (droughts), strong/violent winds, increases
in average daily temperature as well as permanent changes in weather patterns, which could impact the operations of the
Company by, among others, through disruptions in the supply chain, the continuity of the core production business and an
increase in operating costs directly related to the core business as well as through more difficult working conditions.
The climate risk related to the transition, to Ih the Company is exposed, arises from the need to adapt the economy to
gradual climate change. This risk category comprises questions related to legal requirements, technological progress
towards a low-carbon economy and changes in demand and supply for certain products and services, whose production is
associated with the climate risk as well as the growing expectations of stakeholders regarding the Company as to the
reduction of its impact on the climate. A detailed description of identified, key climate risks associated with the negative
impact of climate changes on the activities of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., including indicators used in their assessment and
actions undertaken by the Company to mitigate their impact, is presented in the Management Board’s report on the
activities of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group in 2023, section 2.3 Risk management and
section 4.2 Climate impact management.
While assessing the impact of identified climate risks on the Company’s financial situation, results and activities, in particular
in the case of volatile costs of CO
2
emission allowances, the increase in costs of electricity purchase, costs associated with
research and additional expenditures on development of internal energy sources, the following areas were subjected to
detailed assessment:
adopted periods of economic utility of fixed assets and their residual values,
existence of indications of the possibility of impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
and assumptions adopted for impairment testing of these assets,
assumptions adopted for the measurement of loans granted,
revaluation of the provision for future decommissioning costs of mines and other technological facilities,
revaluation of provisions for additional costs of sales, selling costs and administrative expenses,
liabilities and liabilities due to guarantees associated with potential fines and environmental penalties.
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated

As a result of the aforementioned work, as at 31 December 2023 no material impact of climate risk on the aforementioned
areas was identified.

Note 1.5 Foreign currency transactions and the measurement of items denominated in foreign currencies
The financial statements are presented in Polish zloty (PLN), which is both the functional and presentation currency of the
Company.
At the moment of initial recognition, foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency:
at the actual exchange rate applied, i.e. at the buy or sell exchange rate applied by the bank in which the transaction
occurs, in the case of the sale or purchase of currencies and the payment of receivables or liabilities on a bank account
in a currency other than the operation currency,
at the average exchange rate set for a given currency, prevailing on the date of the transaction for other transactions.
The exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction is the average NBP rate announced on the last working
day preceding the transaction date.
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
14
At the end of each reporting period, foreign currency monetary items are translated at the closing rate prevailing on that
date.
Foreign exchange gains or losses on the settlement of foreign currency transactions, and on the measurement of foreign
currency monetary assets and liabilities (other than derivatives), are recognised in profit or loss.
Foreign exchange gains or losses on the measurement of foreign currency derivatives are recognised in profit or loss as a
fair value measurement, provided they do not represent a change in the fair value of the effective cash flow hedge. In such
a case, they are recognised in other comprehensive income in accordance with hedge accounting policies.
Foreign exchange gains or losses on non-monetary items, such as equity instruments classified as financial assets
measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, are recognised in other comprehensive income.
Foreign exchange gains or losses on monetary items measured at fair value through profit or loss (e.g. loans granted
measured at fair value) are recognised as a part of the fair value measurement.
Note 1.6 Impact of new and amended standards and interpretations
Amendments to standards applied for the first time in the separate financial statements for 2023:
IFRS 17 Insurance contracts and amendments to IFRS 17 published in 2020 and 2021,
Amendments to IAS 1 and Practice Statement 2 on disclosures of accounting policies,
Amendments to IAS 8 on the introduction of a definition of accounting estimates,
Amendments to IAS 12 on deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction,
Amendments to IAS 12 on temporary exception to the requirements regarding recognition of deferred tax related
to the implementation of the reform of the international tax system (the so-called Pillar 2 of the BEPS 2.0 (Base Erosion
and Profit Shifting 2.0)).
Up to the date of publication of these separate financial statements, the aforementioned amendments to the standards
were adopted for use by the European Union.
In the Company’s opinion, the amendments to the standards:
IFRS 17 do not have an impact on the separate financial statements
IAS 1 and Practice Statement 2 and amendments to IAS 8 - have an insignificant impact on the separate financial
statements,
IAS 12 on deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction do not have an impact on the
separate financial statements, because the Company applied an approach in line with current guidelines, among
others with respect to leases capitalised by lessees pursuant to IFRS 16 and environmental provisions recognised
pursuant to IFRIC 1,
IAS 12 regarding recognition of the effects of the international tax system reform, will have an impact on the separate
financial statements and the Company is assessing the scope of impact of regulations on the global minimum tax,
pursuant to the description provided below:
Pillar 2 of the BEPS 2.0 project introduces a general framework of the global minimum tax, adopted during the forum of
the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD, hereafter: OECD Framework). In the case of member
states of the European Union, the first stage of implementation of new rules will be the adoption of the Council Directive
(EU) 2022/2523 of 14 December 2022 on ensuring a global minimum level of taxation for multinational enterprise groups
and large-scale domestic groups in the European Union (hereafter: “the Directive”). The Directive obliges the individual
member states to implement its rules to their domestic legal systems, in accordance with legislative rules in force in
individual states.
Pillar 2 of the BEPS 2.0 project introduces the GloBE rules (Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules):
1. The Income Inclusion Rule (IIR), pursuant to which a top-up tax is applied at the level of the ultimate parent entity
or an intermediate parent entity in the case of low-tax constituent entities.
2. The Undertaxed Profits Rule (UTPR). This is a complementary rule to the IIR rule and is applicable only if no IIR
was allocated. The top-up tax is allocated to countries with constituent entities on the basis of property, plant and
equipment/employees of these entities by limiting or denying deductions or requiring a corresponding
adjustment.
3. Qualified Domestic Minimum Top-up Tax (QDMTT). It is applicable prior to IIR and UTPR rules and consists of
calculating the top-up tax by the low-tax jurisdiction itself on the basis of a calculation pursuant to the calculation
for a IIR top-up tax.
The minimum effective tax rate (ETR) for all of the aforementioned rules is 15%.
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
15
The main mechanisms of Pillar 2 of the BEPS 2.0 reform will be applied by MNE (multinational enterprises /groups) in the
following manner:
1. In the first step, before the GloBE rules, the Subject to Tax Rule is applicable (STTR), which provides individual
countries with a right to impose a limited taxation at source on taxable payments between related entities, which
are taxable below the agreed-upon minimum nominal rate of 9%. It is applicable to interest, licence fees and
certain other receivables.
2. In the second step, QDMTT rule is applicable, under which the top-up tax may be calculated directly by the low-
tax jurisdiction in which a group’s (multinational enterprise’s) constituent entity operates. It is of significance that
the qualified domestic top-up tax should be calculated in a manner compliant with requirements stipulated for
the calculation of the IIR tax under the Pillar 2.
3. If the two rules mentioned above were not applied or if their application would not lead to full settlement of the
total top-up tax due from a given group, then the total amount of top-up tax, in the amount decreased by the part
of a top up tax charged in previous steps, will be charged at the level of the ultimate or intermediate parent entity,
pursuant to the IIR rule.
4. Finally, if the IIR top-up tax is likewise not imposed, the undertaxed profits rule is applicable (UTPR) by imposing
a top-up tax on constituent entities of the group whose jurisdictions adopted the GloBE rules, regardless whether
the constituent entities have paid the income tax above or below the ETR level of 15% or not.
The application of the aforementioned rules depends on whether a given country has implemented GloBE rules or its own
national top-up tax.
In the case of Poland, appropriate domestic laws implementing the provisions of the Directive have not yet been adopted,
nor has draft legislation been released to the public. Apart from Poland, the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group has constituent
entities in, among others, the following jurisdictions: Canada, USA, Chile, Luxembourg, the United Kingdom.
Currently in Canada, regulations on the implementation of QDMTT and IIR rules are being worked upon, and the first year
in which they are planned to be applicable is the financial year beginning on or after 31 December 2023. In the case of
UTPR, it is planned that it would be the financial year beginning on or after 31 December 2024.
The USA will not implement rules of Pillar 2 due to domestic regulations currently in force, whereas the USA plan to
implement regulations aimed at counteracting the UTPR rule under the Pillar 2 in other jurisdictions.
It is expected that Chile will implement Pillar 2 rules, but no implementation schedule has been announced yet.
In Luxembourg, on 20 December 2023 regulations were adopted which implemented IIR, QDMTT and UTPR rules. QDMTT
and IIR rules will be applicable to the financial year beginning on or after 31 December 2023, with UTPR rules to the financial
year beginning on or after 31 December 2024.
The United Kingdom is one of the leading nations in terms of progress in the implementation of IIR and QDMTT rules
these regulations have already been implemented and will be in force from 2024, and a draft regulation on the
implementation of UTPR has been published, with implementation planned from 2025.
Due to the above, in the Company’s opinion, from 1 January 2024 he GloBE QDMTT and IIR rules will be implemented at
least in Canada and the United Kingdom.
The analysis of the OECD Framework and the Directive leads to the conclusion that the Company KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.,
as a so-called multinational enterprise, will be obliged to report a specific level of the tax rate of subsidiaries at the level of
individual jurisdictions. Nevertheless, implementation of appropriate regulations at the domestic level is necessary in this
regard.
While the rules of the Directive should encompass the year 2024, the OECD Framework includes a transitional period (a so-
called safe harbour), which enables the postponement of the date of obligatory application of these rules by 3 subsequent
years (no later than to 30 June 2028). Based on analysis of the assumptions stipulated in these transitional rules, in the
Company’s opinion, companies of the Group will be able to use them in the majority of jurisdictions.
Due to the above, since there is no legal framework in force on Pillar 2 of the BEPS 2.0 reform, these separate financial
statements do not yet contain any amounts arising from the reform of the international tax system. The Company will take
actions to estimate the potential impact of the reform on future tax burden of the Company as soon as the regulations are
published.
The Company continuously monitors progress of the legislative work aimed at implementation of the rules of the reform
in question, in Poland as well as in other jurisdictions in which subsidiaries of the Group operate and analyses their impact
on the Group as well as operational processes that will require an adjustment to new disclosure and reporting
requirements.

Note 1.7 Published standards and interpretations, which are not yet in force and were not applied earlier by the
Company
Published standards and interpretations which are not yet in force, adopted for use by the European Union:
Amendments to IFRS 16 on lease liabilities in a sale and leaseback, effective on or after 1 January 2024.
Amendments to IAS 1 on classification of liabilities as current or non-current (including changes due to deferral
of effective date), effective on or after 1 January 2024. The standard introduces changes clarifying conditions
necessary to recognise financial liabilities as non-current. Such recognition will be possible only if the entity has
the unconditional right to defer settlement of a liability for over 12 months after the reporting date and at the
same time the entity’s intent as to the early repayment will not have an impact on this recognition. If the
amendments to IAS 1 were applied by the Company in these separate financial statements, the presentation of
borrowings as at 31 December 2023 would not change.
Amendments to IAS 1 on non-current liabilities with covenants, effective on or after 1 January 2024. The
amendments aim to clarify that covenants, whose conditions have to be met by an entity after the reporting date,
and which refer to the rights of an entity to defer settlement of a liability by at least twelve months from the end
of the reporting period, do not have an impact on the classification of liabilities as current or non-current at the
end of the reporting period. However, it will be necessary to disclose information on such covenants in notes to
the financial statements in order to allow users of financial statements to understand the risk that a particular
liability may become due in the period of 12 months from the end of the reporting period. In such a situation, the
Standard requires the disclosure of a description of a covenant, the amount of liabilities it is related to and facts
and circumstances, if they occur, indicating the occurrence of risk that an entity may not meet the conditions of
the covenant within the deadline indicated after the end of the reporting period.
Published standards and interpretations which are not yet in force, awaiting the adoption for use by the European
Union:
IFRS 14 Regulatory deferral accounts, effective on or after 1 January 2016, however the European Commission
has decided not to launch the endorsement process of this interim standard and to wait for the final standard.
Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 on the sale or contribution of assets between an Investor and its Associate
or Joint Venture (date of entry into force was not specified).
Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 on disclosure requirements regarding supplier finance arrangements, effective
on or after 1 January 2024.
Amendments to IAS 21 on how to approach the issue of assessment as to whether a given currency is

IFRS 18 Presentation and disclosure in financial statements, effective on or after 1 January 2027. IFRS 18 will
replace IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements. The aim of the new standard is to improve the usefulness of
the information presented in financial statements by providing investors with more transparent and comparable
information on companies' financial results.
The Company intends to apply all of the amendments at their effective dates. In the Company’s opinion, amendments to
the standards will be applicable to its activities in the scope of future economic operations, transactions or other events,
towards which the amendments to the standards are applicable. Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 on the disclosure
requirements regarding supplier finance arrangements will be applied by the Company in the scope of reverse factoring
used by the Company, as a supplement to information disclosed currently in these financial statements, but nevertheless,
in the Company’s opinion, this impact will be insignificant. If IFRS 18 is applied, changes in reporting will depend on the
previously used method of presenting information on financial results in the financial statements. The Company intends to
conduct a preliminary assessment of the scope of these changes for the Company's separate financial statements by the
end of 2024.

PART 2 Operating segments and information on revenues
Operating segments
Based on an analysis of the Company’s organisational structure, its system of internal reporting and the management
model, it was determined that the Company’s activity constitutes a single operating and reporting segment, which may be
defined as “Production of copper, precious metals and other metallurgical products”.
The core business of the Company is the production of copper and silver. Production is a fully integrated process, in which
the end-product of one stage is the half-finished product used in the next stage. Copper ore extracted in the mines is
transported to concentrators where the enrichment process is carried out. As a result of this process, copper concentrate
is produced, which is then supplied to the metallurgical plants where it is smelted and fire refined into anode copper. Then,
during the process of electrolytic refining, the anode copper is converted into copper cathodes, which are a commercial
product, or a material to produce wire rod.
Anode slimes, which arise from the process of copper electrorefining, is a raw material used to produce precious metals.
Lead-bearing dust which is generated from the smelting processes is used to produce lead. Nickel sulphate and copper
sulphate are recovered from the processing of used electrolyte. Gases generated from the smelting furnaces are used to
produce sulphuric acid. Economic use is also made of smelter slags, which are sold as road-building materials.
Settlements between organisational units are carried out based on measurement of production at cost, and as a result the
internal organisational units (i.e. mines, concentrators, metallurgical plants) in the production cycle do not generate profit
on sales.
The financial data prepared for management accounting purposes is based on the same accounting policies which are used
to prepare the financial statements. The Management Board of the Company, which is responsible for allocating resources
and for the financial results of the Company, regularly reviews financial reports in the process of making major operational
decisions.
The organisational structure of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. has the Head Office and 10 Divisions, including: mines,
concentrators and metallurgical plants. The Head Office carries out sales of the Company’s basic products, i.e. electrolytic
copper cathodes, wire rod and silver, and support functions, particularly including the management of financial assets,
centralised finance and accounting services, marketing, legal and other services.
The Management Board of the Company assesses a segment’s performance based on Adjusted EBITDA and the profit or
loss for the period. The manner of calculating Adjusted EBITDA is presented in the table “Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA”.

Accounting policies
Revenues arising from ordinary operating activities of the Company, i.e. revenues from sales of products, merchandise
and materials, are recognised in the statement of profit or loss as revenues from contracts with customers.
The Company generates its revenues mainly from the sale of: copper, silver and gold. Other, smaller streams of revenues
arise from the sale of services (including distribution of electricity, other utilities and IT services) and other products,
merchandise and materials (including refined lead, sulphuric acid, heat and electricity as well as other production waste).
The Company recognises revenue from contracts with customers when the Company satisfies a performance obligation
by transferring a promised good or providing a service to a customer, which is when the customer obtains control of that
asset, i.e. the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the asset, as well as
the ability to prevent other entities from directing the use of, and obtaining the benefits from, the asset. Since in every
case, following the shipment of the promised good and transferring control over it, the Company has an unconditional
right to consideration from the customer, and the only condition of receiving it is time lapse, the Company recognises the
consideration from contracts with customers as receivables and therefore the Company does not recognise contractual
assets.
The Company recognises as a performance obligation every contractual promise to transfer to a customer a good or
provide a service that is distinct, or a series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and that have the
same pattern of transfer to the customer. For each performance obligation, the Company determines (based on
contractual terms), whether the obligation will be performed over time or at a specified moment. In particular, in contracts
for the sale of copper, silver and gold, every measurement unit of a transferred good (e.g. 1 tonne of copper or 1 kg of
silver) is a separate performance obligation. Therefore, for every sale or transfer of goods, constituting a multiplication
of a measurement unit of a transferred product, which is realised at the same time, the Company fulfils its performance
obligation and at the same time recognises revenues.
Apart from contracts for supplying goods with transport services, there are no other contracts including more than one
performance obligation. The attribution of transaction prices to individual performance obligations are made on the basis
of unit sale prices.
In trade contracts in which the performance obligation is met at a specified time, the Company uses various payment
conditions, including prepayments of up to several days before delivery and deferred payments of up to 120 days,
although the deferred payments do not concern sale transactions of silver and gold. Payment dates depend on the
evaluation of the recipient’s credit risk and the possibility of securing receivables. The consideration becomes due
depending on contractual conditions, that is prior to the realisation of the delivery (prepayment) or after the Company
meets its performance obligation. If the Company receives payment from the customer before it meets its performance
obligation, it recognises it as contractual payables. However, in the case of deferred payments terms, the Company
recognises due consideration from the customer as a receivable only after the transfer of promised products to the
customer and the issuance of the invoice.
Revenues from sales of other services, such as distribution of utilities, rentals, leases, sharing IT systems and other are
recognised over time by the Company as it meets its obligations, as the customers simultaneously receive and gain
economic benefits arising from the Company’s performance and the Company has an unconditional right to
consideration.
Revenues from contracts with customers are recognised in the amount of the transaction price, consisting of the amount
of consideration to which in accordance with the Company’s expectations – it will be given in return for the transfer of
promised goods or services to the customer, excluding consideration collected on behalf of third parties.
The transaction price also reflects the effects of the time value of money if a contract with a customer contains a
significant financing element, which is determined based on the contractual payment terms, regardless of whether the
promise of financing is explicitly stated in the contract. In determining whether a financing component is significant for a
given agreement, all of the facts and circumstances are taken into consideration, including the eventual difference
between the promised consideration and the cash selling price of the promised goods and services, as well as the total
impact of the following two factors: (i) the estimated period from the moment an entity transfers the promised goods or
services to a customer to the moment the customer pays for these goods or services, and (ii) prevailing interest rates on
a given market. The Company did not identify significant financing components in sales transactions to customers
realised in 2023 and 2022.
In the case of copper and silver products sales transaction for which the price is set after the date of recognition of a
given sale, at the moment of initial recognition of a transaction an adjustment of revenues from sales is made, arising
from the difference between the forward price of a metal expressed in USD from the date of recognition of a sale in the
period corresponding to the period of settlement of the transaction, and the price from provisional invoice. This
adjustment brings the amount of the transaction to the expected amount as a transaction price at the moment of initial
recognition. This only concerns cases where the change in transaction price arises from a change in the metal’s price. For
these types of variable revenues, the limitation of IFRS 15 on recognising variable consideration only to the amount in
respect of which it is highly probable that a reversal will not be recognised, is not applicable.

21
Changes to the accounted amount after the moment of recognition do not impact the revenues from sales but are fair
value gains/losses on measurement of receivables pursuant to the accounting policies presented in Note 10.2. Sales
revenue is adjusted for the gain or loss on the settlement of future cash flow hedging derivatives, in accordance with the
general principle that the portion of gain or loss on a derivative hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective
hedge is recognised in the same position of profit or loss in which the gain or loss on the hedged item is recognised at
the moment when the hedged item affects profit or loss
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
The Company recognises revenues from the sale of products, merchandise and materials in profit or loss once, when the
performance obligation is satisfied (in particular in accordance with the applied INCOTERMS principles).In the majority of
contracts, control is transferred to the customer after delivery of the goods, which is also understood as delivery of the
goods to the carrier or to a designated place (DAP, FCA and EX WORKS bases). In other contracts, control is transferred
to the customer at the moment it is handed over to the carrier and loaded aboard a ship (CFR, CIF, CPT and CIP bases). In
these contracts, the Company is also obliged to organise a shipping service. In these cases, the obligation to sell goods
and the obligation to provide a shipping service are treated as separate services promised in the contract. With respect
to transport services, the Company acts as a principal, as it has control over the service before its completion.
Revenues from sales of other services, such as distribution of utilities, rentals, leases, sharing IT systems and other are
recognised over time by the Company as it meets its obligations, as the customers simultaneously receive and gain
economic benefits arising from the Company’s performance and the Company has an unconditional right to
consideration.
Onerous contracts and variable consideration
Taking into account the greater volatility of the macroeconomic environment, which has a significant impact on the
Company’s financial results and requirements of IAS 37 with respect to the identification of onerous contracts, the Company
periodically analyses concluded contracts in terms of the potential occurrence of a situation under which the contractual
sales price does not exceed the estimated, unavoidable costs of realisation of such contracts.
For the sales contracts of main products (copper, silver, gold) the Company has limited options of transferring the potential
increase in production costs to the sales price of its final products, since the level of revenues from sales of these products
mainly depends on stock exchange quotations and currency exchange rates.
Stock quotations are the basis used to determine the sales price of copper products in physical contracts (“Cash Settlement”
of the London Metal Exchange are the most commonly used). In the case of silver products, applied prices are based on
quotations of the London Bullion Market Association. Things look similar for other significant products of the Company,
that is gold and lead products, the prices of which depend on stock quotations.
It is possible to negotiate additional premiums to prices arising from stock quotations, however they are limited due to the
influence of current market conditions as well as the negotiation position of the parties.
Some of the Company’s products (among others: sulphuric acid, sulphide copper and refined lead) are by-products of the
copper production process, which, after further processing, may be sold to external clients. While making a decision to
process and sell them, the Company is guided not only by potential, future economic gains arising from such contracts, but
also pays attention to other costs that were avoided by making such a choice, that otherwise would have to be incurred in
order to dispose of these by-products.
Despite the fact that the currently observed, and expected in the near future, prices of sulphuric acid, sulphide copper and
refined lead are not conducive to the achievement of positive profit margins, the results of this activity are more
advantageous than the available alternative solutions (e.g. disposal of these by-products).
Therefore, the Company does not recognise certain contracts as onerous contracts, because in a broader perspective, it
generates profit for the overall copper production process, in which utilisation of by-products is an integral part and fits in
the Company’s actions aimed at protecting the natural environment as well as minimising the negative impact on this
environment as a result of conducted economic activity.
On the basis of conducted analyses, the Company did not identify the occurrence of onerous contracts under IAS 37 as at
31 December 2023.

As at 1 January 2023, the balance of trade payables due to contracts with customers amounted to PLN 9 million and was
wholly recognised in revenues for 2023. As at 31 December 2023, the balance of trade payables due to contracts with
customers amounted to PLN 2 million.
In 2023, the Company recognised an adjustment to revenues on performance obligations realised in 2022 in the amount
of PLN 71 million, which arose due to the final determination of sales price in 2023.
In 2022, the Company recognised revenues on performance obligations realised in 2021 in the amount of PLN 19 million,
which arose due to the final determination of sales price in 2022.
If the Company has remaining performance obligations as at the end of the reporting period that are unsatisfied, it is
necessary to disclose the transaction price allocated to these obligations (IFRS 15.120). The Company uses a practical
approach and does not disclose performance obligations that are part of contracts with initial period of one year or less.
Moreover, the Company has several long-term contracts, the price of which is based mainly on variable consideration that
the Company does not include in estimating the transaction price.

PART 3 Impairment of assets
Note 3.1 Impairment losses on assets as at 31 December 2023
IMPAIRMENT TESTING OF THE POLISH PRODUCTION ASSETS (MINING AND METALLURGICAL ASSETS) OF KGHM
POLSKA MIEDŹ S.A.
Pursuant to the adopted accounting policy, KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. recognises a significant or prolonged decrease in
market capitalisation of an entity as compared to the carrying amount of its net assets as an indication to perform
impairment testing of the carrying amount of the Company’s assets. The Company’s market capitalisation was below the
carrying amount of net assets during the entire year 2023 year and slightly decreased as compared to 31 December
2022, and at the end of the reporting period it amounted to 79% of this amount. Moreover, other indications of
impairment occurred, which may be found below.
As at 31 December 2023, due to the occurrence of indications of changes in the recoverable amount of the Company’s
assets, the Management Board performed impairment testing of the Polish production assets (mining and metallurgical
assets) of KGHM Polska MieS.A. In order to estimate the recoverable amount, these assets constitute a single cash
generating unit (CGU).
The main indications that the recoverable amount of the CGU may be lower than its carrying amount were the following:
the forecasted increase in operating cost and planned increase in capital expenditures on replacement,
the update of assumptions on medium-term production volumes,
strengthening of the PLN exchange rate versus the USD.
Some of the analysed factors have a positive impact on the profitability of the CGU’s activities, and therefore on the value
of the Company’s assets, and these are as follows:
an increase in the forecasted price paths of copper, silver and gold,
a decrease in market interest rates,
rich deposits in the concession areas (current long-term production plans of the Company are up to the horizon
of 2055 and this period does not arise from exhausting the deposit but from the current validity of mining
concessions held).
In order to estimate the recoverable amount of the CGU, in the conducted test the value in use of its non-current assets
was calculated using the DCF method, i.e. the method of discounted cash flows.
Basic macroeconomic assumptions adopted for impairment testing as at 31 December 2023 metal prices and
the exchange rate
The Company adopted price paths on the basis of internal macroeconomic assumptions prepared based on long-term
forecasts available from financial and analytical institutions. A detailed forecast was prepared for the period 2024-2028,
while for the period 2029-2033 a technical adjustment of prices was applied between the last year of the detailed
forecast and 2034, for which a long-term metal price and exchange rate forecast was used at the following level:
- for copper 8 250 USD/t;
- for silver 22 USD/oz;
- for gold 1 600 USD/oz,
- for the USD/PLN exchange rate 4.10.
Other assumptions adopted for impairment testing as at 31 December 2023
Assumption
Level adopted in the test
Detailed forecast period
A 5-year detailed forecast period was adopted for the years 2024-2028 on the basis
of assumptions of the Budget of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. for 2024 and the
Company’s assumptions on production in the years 2024-2028 arising from the
Mine and Copper Concentrate Production Plan for the years 2024-2028.
Mine production level
The total mine production level adopted for testing in the detailed forecast period
(2024-2028) amounted to 1 913 thousand tonnes of copper in concentrate.
Margin level
The average level of EBIT margin adopted for testing in the detailed forecast period
and in the residual period does not differ significantly from the historically
observable level of the Company’s profitability in relatively stable macroeconomic
conditions.

Capital expenditures on
replacement
Total level of expenditures on replacement adopted for testing in the detailed
forecast period (2024-2028) amounted to PLN 12 338 million; in the residual period
capital expenditures on replacement were adopted at a level which allows matching
the Company’s assets to the planned decrease in own mine production.
Rate of increase/decrease
following the forecast period
-1.43%, resulting from the planned decrease in production of copper in ore and in
own concentrates assumed in current long-term plans (up to 2055).
Discount rate*
7.0% - this is the level of the real discount rate after taxation (9.85% at the nominal
rate), since the cash flows adopted in the model were estimated on the basis of the
real rate.
Discount rate prior to taxation amounts to 12.69%.
* The presented data are the amounts after taxation as an approach practically used in the model of value in use. The discount rate before
taxation was calculated for disclosure purposes on the basis of the rate after taxation, which was applied in the test.
Results of the test performed as at 31 December 2023 may be found in the following table:

* The carrying amount of non-current assets adjusted by key non-production assets, decreased by employee benefits liabilities. The CGU’s carrying
amount does not include provisions for the decommissioning costs of mines, just as the calculation of value in use does not include expenditures
on the decommissioning of mines.
As a result of the performed test, as at 31 December 2023 the value in use of mining and metallurgical assets of KGHM
Polska Miedź S.A. was lower than their carrying amount by PLN 3 771 million. The calculated impairment loss was
recognised in the following items: “Cost of sales” in the amount of PLN 2 675 million, “Selling costs and administrative
expenses” in the amount of PLN 131 million and “Other operating costs” in the amount of PLN 965 million. A deferred tax
on impairment losses was recognised in the amount of PLN 710 million , which decreased deferred tax liabilities.
The impairment loss was allocated to the following types of assets: buildings and land (PLN 1 622 million), technical
equipment, machines, motor vehicles and other fixed assets (PLN 1 138 million), fixed assets under construction (PLN 954
million), intangible assets other (PLN 57 million).
Sensitivity analysis of the recoverable amount of operating assets of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. determined that the key
assumptions adopted for the impairment testing were the adopted price paths, the exchange rate and the discount rate.
The assumptions regarding the price paths, the exchange rate and the discount rate were adopted while taking into account
the professional judgment of the Management Board as to the performance of these amounts in the future, and was
reflected in the estimated recoverable amount.

IMPAIRMENT TESTING OF SHARES IN FUTURE 1 Sp. z o.o.
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. is involved in Future 1 Sp. z o.o. in the form of:
loans granted in the amount of PLN 4 691 million, and
shares measured at cost less impairment losses, which as at 31 December 2023 before the recognition of results
of impairment testing amounted to PLN 2 111 million (comprised of PLN 4 770 million value at cost,
PLN 2 663 million the amount of impairment loss and PLN 4 million the amount of discount on receivables
due to returnable payments to capital).
As at 31 December 2023, due to the occurrence of indications of changes in the recoverable amount of shares in the
company Future 1 Sp. z o.o., the Company conducted a test for impairment of these shares. Future 1 Sp. z o.o. is a holding
company, through which KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. holds shares in KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. (whose main assets are the
Victoria project (in the pre-operational phase), the Robinson mine and less important mines of the Sudbury Basin and the
Carlota mine) and in the joint venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M., and provides financing to the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD.
Group and Sierra Gorda S.C.M.
The key indications to perform impairment testing were:
a change in market forecasts of commodities prices,
a change in the level of market interest rates,
an update of assumptions and production plans of the Victoria Project (in the pre-operational phase),
a change in technical and economic parameters of all mining assets in the operational phase in terms of:
production volumes, planned operating costs, capital expenditures and changes of the individual lives of mines.
The main indications that the recoverable amount may be higher than the carrying amount of shares were:
a higher assumed volume of production from mining assets and an increase in revenues,
an increase in price paths of metals,
The main indications that the recoverable amount may be lower than the carrying amount of shares were:
changes in technical and economic parameters of the Victoria project,
changes in technical and economic parameters of mining assets, among other an increase in operating costs and
planned capital expenditures during mine lives.
In order to estimate the recoverable amount, in the conducted test the fair value of the CGU was calculated using the DCF
method, i.e. the method of discounted cash flows. The same method was used in previous years. Cash flows were
discounted using the weighted average cost of capital at the level of 12.29%.
The fair value measurement was classified to level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Basic macroeconomic assumptions adopted for cash flow estimation metal prices
Price paths were adopted on the basis of long-term forecasts available from financial and analytical institutions. A detailed
forecast was prepared for the period 2024-2028, while for the period 2029-2033 a technical adjustment of prices was
applied between the last year of the detailed forecast and 2034, from which a long-term metal price forecast is used at the
following level:
for copper 8 250 USD/t (3.74 USD/lb);
for gold 1 600 USD/oz;
for nickel 18 739 USD/t (8.50 USD/lb).

Key factors responsible for the modification of technical and economic assumptions
Sudbury
The increase in the production volume of payable metal by the McCreedy West mine. The finance model
was updated on the basis of a change in operational assumptions.
Robinson
An update of the production plan which includes mining from the Ruth West 6 pit and changes in mining
sequence in the Liberty pit, which enabled the extension of LOM to 2036. The finance model was updated
on the basis of a change in operational assumptions.
Carlota
An update of the production plan which includes mining from the Cactus pit Phase 3, which enabled
the extension of LOM to 2027. The finance model was updated on the basis of a change in operational
assumptions.
Victoria
Update of the mine construction schedule, update of capital expenditures and calculation of operating
costs.
Sierra Gorda
Update of assumptions on production, operating costs and capital expenditures.

The reversal of the impairment loss on the shares in the amount of PLN 741 million was recognised in the statement of
financial position in other operating activities (Note 4.2).
Sensitivity analysis of the recoverable amount of the shares of Future 1 Sp. z o.o. determined that the key assumptions
adopted for the impairment testing were the assumed price paths and the discount rate. The assumptions regarding the
price paths and the discount rate were adopted while taking into account the professional judgement of the Management
Board as to the performance of these amounts in the future, and was reflected in the estimated recoverable amount. For
the purposes of monitoring the risk of impairment of the tested asset in subsequent periods, the following determinations
were made:
discount rate the adoption at a level higher by 1 percentage point would result in a reversal of the impairment
loss in the total amount of PLN 445 million, and at a level lower by 1 percentage point would result in a reversal
of the impairment loss in the total amount of PLN 1 080 million,
price paths for copper the adoption of prices at a level lower by 0.1 USD/lb would result in a reversal of the
impairment loss in the amount of PLN 453 million, and at a level higher by 0.1 USD/lb would result in a reversal
of the impairment loss in the amount of PLN 1 114 million.
price paths for nickel the adoption of prices at a level lower by 0.1 USD/lb would result in a reversal of the
impairment loss in the amount of PLN 713 million, and at a level higher by 0.1 USD/lb would result in a reversal
of the impairment loss in the total amount of PLN 769 million.
IMPAIRMENT TESTING OF SHARES IN KGHM METRACO S.A.
As at 31 December 2023, due to the occurrence of indications of changes in the recoverable amount of investment in
shares in KGHM Metraco S.A., the Company conducted a test for impairment of this asset.
The key indications of a change in the recoverable amount of the asset are:
better financial results than anticipated in forecasts,
value of net assets of KGHM Metraco S.A. higher than the value of investment in the statement of financial
position of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., despite dividends paid out in the past which decreased the company’s
equity,
identification of indications and conduction of impairment testing of the investment of KGHM Metraco S.A. in
shares of the subsidiary Centrozłom Wrocław S.A.
In order to estimate the recoverable amount, in the conducted test the fair value of shares was calculated using the DCF
method, i.e. the method of discounted cash flows.
Basic assumptions adopted for impairment testing
continuation of the strategy of KGHM Metraco S.A. and continuation of current business activities, in an
unchanged significantly scope,
the period of disclosed forecast of cash flows was adopted on the basis of the 5-year financial plan of KGHM
Metraco S.A.,
cash flows adopted on the basis of the financial plan for the years 2024 2028, approved by the Management
Board of KGHM Metraco S.A.
WACC real discount rate of 6.74%, since the real cash flows were adopted in the model,
following the period of the disclosed forecast, the growth rate was conservatively adopted at the level of 0.0%,
average yearly EBITDA in the forecast period at the conservative level of PLN 23 million.
As a result of the conducted impairment testing of shares in KGHM Metraco S.A., the recoverable amount in the investment
was estimated to be PLN 451 million, which is higher than the net carrying amount of the investment (PLN 335 million),
which provided the Company with a justification to reverse the entirety of the previously recognised impairment loss on
the investment in shares in KGHM Metraco S.A. in the amount of PLN 86 million, which was recognised in the statement of
profit or loss in other operating activities (Note 4.2).
The conducted sensitivity analysis indicates that the recoverable amount is moderately vulnerable to the adopted level of
discount rate and the growth rate following the forecast period:
an increase in the discount rate by 1 percentage point results in a decrease in the estimated recoverable amount
by PLN 16 million, a decrease by 1 percentage point results in an increase in the recoverable amount by PLN 22
million,
an increase in the growth rate by 1 percentage point results in an increase in the recoverable amount by PLN 18
million, a decrease by 1 percentage point results in a decrease in the recoverable amount by PLN 13 million,
while other parameters remain unchanged.

IMPAIRMENT TESTING OF SHARES IN ZAGŁĘBIE LUBIN S.A.
As at 31 December 2023, due to the occurrence of indications of changes in the recoverable amount of investment in
shares in Zagłębie Lubin S.A. (with a carrying amount of PLN 113 million), the Company performed a test for impairment
of this asset.
The key indications of a change in the recoverable amount of the asset included:
financial results worse than anticipated in forecasts,
value of net assets of Zagłębie Lubin S.A. lower than the value of investment in the statement of financial position
of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
In order to estimate the recoverable amount, in the conducted test the fair value of the company Zagłębie Lubin S.A. was
estimated.
Basic assumptions adopted for impairment testing
The fair value of the investment in Zagłębie Lubin was estimated using the asset-based approach, i.e. the adjusted net
assets method (a measurement classified to level 3 of the fair value hierarchy).
The key assumptions adopted for measurement of the fair value of shares in the company were:
revenues generated by the Zagłębie Lubin company from sponsoring and revenues from the sale of tickets and
passes,
during the detailed forecast period, there are no planned capital expenditures on the stadium,
the value of rights to player cards and to the team were set on the basis of market values of football players
published on the transfer website www.transfermarkt.de, which is recognised as one of the best sources of
information on market value of players and is widely used by the European and international clubs as well as
football federations,
the period of detailed forecast of cash flows was adopted on the basis of the 5-year financial plan of Zagłębie
Lubin S.A., taking into account the residual value,
the growth rate following the period of detailed forecast was adopted at the conservative level of 0.0%,
the WACC real discount rate was adopted at the level of 6.65%.
As a result of the conducted impairment testing of shares in Zagłębie Lubin S.A., the recoverable amount in the investment
was estimated to be higher than the carrying amount of the investment (PLN 113 million) and therefore there is no
justification to recognise an impairment loss on shares.
The conducted sensitivity analysis indicates that the recoverable amount is moderately vulnerable to changes in key
parameters influencing the result of the measurement:
an increase in the discount rate by 1 percentage point results in a decrease in the estimated recoverable amount of
the company to PLN 115 million, while a decrease by 1 percentage point results in an increase in the recoverable
amount to PLN 120 million,
an increase in the valuations published by the transfer website by 5 percentage points results in an increase in the
estimated recoverable amount of the company to PLN 120 million, while a decrease by 5 percentage points results in
a decrease in the recoverable amount to PLN 115 million,
Other impairment losses on assets
Other impairment losses on assets concern:
fixed assets and intangible assets, PLN 6 million,
write-down of inventories, PLN 44 million.
Information on the item in which impairment losses are recognised in the separate statement of profit or loss is presented
in Note 4.4.
Note 3.2 Impairment losses on assets as at 31 December 2022
Pursuant to IAS 36, as at 31 December 2022 the Company assessed the occurrence of indications of impairment of the
Company’s assets. Key non-current assets of the Company were subjected to the analysis, including shares in subsidiaries.
As a result of the performed evaluation, no indications of impairment of these assets were identified. Because of the
Company’s market capitalisation remaining below the level of its net assets for a significant part of 2022, this area was
subjected to a further analysis.

Assessment of the risk of impairment of assets of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. in the context of the market
capitalisation of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
In 2022, a general deterioration in sentiment was seen in stock markets due to the substantial uncertainty as to the
development of the global macroeconomic situation in reaction to the start of the armed conflict in Ukraine and the
tangible consequences of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) epidemic. As a result, stock market indices, amongst others,
suffered greatly. In 2022, the share price of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. fell by 9% compared to the share price at the end
of 2021, and as at 31 December 2022 it amounted to PLN 126.75. During the same period the WIG and WIG 20 indices
fell respectively by 17% and 21%. As a result, the Company’s market capitalisation fell from PLN 27 880 million to
PLN 25 350 million, which means that as at 31 December 2022 it remained 15% below the level of the Company’s net
assets.
Due to the fact that, during a significant part of the reporting period, the Company’s market capitalisation remained
below the carrying amount of its net assets, in accordance with IAS 36 Impairment of assets, the Management Board of
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. conducted an analysis to determine whether any area of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.’s activities
could be impaired.
The analysis of the assets located in Poland indicated that not all of the factors which affect the market capitalisation of
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. are factors which are related to the conducted economic activities.
The drop in share prices affected companies in the majority of sectors, in different economies, and reflected investor
uncertainty as to the future. In particular, the armed conflict in Ukraine caused a withdrawal of foreign investors from
areas bordering the war zone, which can be seen not only in the situation on the Warsaw stock exchange, but also on
exchanges in the region, such as in Czechia, Slovakia and Hungary, and also had a significant impact on the weakening
of the PLN versus the USD.
From the point of view of the Company’s operations, the key factor influencing the level of market capitalisation is first
and foremost the copper price. In December 2021, the average price of copper amounted to 9 550 USD/t, and following
the initial continuation of the upward trend in the first months of 2022 it recorded a significant decline. The minimum
was recorded in July 2022, when the average copper price was at the level of 7 530 USD/t. But over time, as reassuring
information as to the demand for this metal kept coming, prices returned to the trend observed at the start of the year
and in December 2022 the average price for copper amounted to 8 367 USD/t. The share prices of companies involved
in the mining and processing of copper are strongly correlated with the price of this metal.
It should be pointed out that in the case of the Polish assets, of significance are PLN-expressed metals prices, which are
also affected by the USD/PLN exchange rate. Fluctuations in the price of copper related to the turbulence on the financial
markets, whose origins may often be found not only in macroeconomics but also in broadly understood geopolitics, are
usually to a large extent offset by changes in the USD/PLN exchange rate, which additionally remains under the influence
of the armed conflict in Ukraine.
Despite the continued uncertainty in the economic environment, KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. maintains full operational
capacity and consistently advances planned production and sales targets. The financial results achieved by the Company
significantly exceed the budget targets, which is also a result of conducted optimisation initiatives and cost discipline
applied in response to macroeconomic conditions.
As a result of the assessment, it was judged that there was no relation between the fall in the share price of KGHM Polska
Miedź S.A. both in terms of the activities of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. in Poland as well as abroad. Consequently, there
were no indications identified suggesting the risk of impairment of the Polish and international production assets,
therefore there were no tests for impairment conducted for these assets as at 31 December 2022.
Due to the uncertainty and the significant volatility of basic economic parameters, including metals prices and currency
exchange rates, and dynamic development of the pandemic situation in Poland and globally, and its impact on the
economic situation, the Company is continuously monitoring the global situation.

In 2022 as well as in 2023, income tax advances were incurred by the Company using the simplified formula, that is in the
fixed amount calculated on the basis of income achieved in 2021 for the advances in 2023, and on the basis of income
achieved in 2020 - for the advances in 2022.
The difference between the amount of tax paid by the Company in 2023 and the amount of tax paid in 2022 arises mainly
from the additional income tax paid in 2023 in the amount of PLN 547 million due to the annual settlement of income tax
for 2022, performed as at 30 June 2023.
The table below presents an identification of differences between income tax from profit before tax and the income tax
calculated according to the principles resulting from the Corporate Income Tax Act:

Note 5.1.1 Deferred income tax
Accounting policies
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and tax laws that are
expected to be applicable when the asset is realised or the
liability is settled based on tax rates and tax laws that have been
enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting
period.
Deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets are recognised for
temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements,
with the exception of temporary differences arising from initial
recognition of assets or liabilities in transactions other than
business combinations, which do not have an impact either on
profit/(loss) before tax nor on the taxable profit/(tax loss) at the
moment they are concluded, and at the date of the transaction
does not result in the occurrence of equal amounts of taxable
and deductible temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets are recognised if it is probable that taxable
profit will be available against which the temporary differences
and unused tax losses can be utilised.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if the
Company has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax
assets and current tax liabilities, and if the deferred tax assets
and deferred tax liabilities relate to income taxes levied on the
Company by the same taxation authority.
The assessment of probability that deferred tax assets
will be realised with future tax income is based on the
Company’s budget. The Company recognises deferred
tax assets in its books to the extent that it is probable
that taxable profit will be available against which the
deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
Maturities of deferred tax assets/(deferred tax liabilities) were as follows:
As at 31 December 2023
As at 31 December 2022
Maturity over the 12 months from the end of the reporting
period (net value)

* In accordance with conditions specified by the Act dated 2 March 2012 on the minerals extraction tax, the amount of tax depends
on the amount of copper and silver in concentrate as well as the tax rates. Tax rates are set separately for copper (Cu) and silver
(Ag) on the basis of formulas specified in the Act and depend on average prices of these metals (stock quotations from LME/LBMA)
as well as the USD exchange rate. The increase in tax rate in 2023 was mainly caused by the return to the calculation method used
to determine the tax rate prior to the decrease in tax rates introduced by the Act, which temporarily in the period from January to
November 2022, decreased the tax rates by approx. 30%. Currently, the indicator which is used to multiply the tax rate for copper
and silver once again amounts to 0.85 (and in the period from January to November 2022 it amounted to 0.6).

PART 6 Investments in subsidiaries
Note 6.1 Shares
Accounting policies
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
In the financial statements of the Company, subsidiaries
are those entities which are directly controlled by the
Company. Investments in subsidiaries are measured at
cost plus any granted non-returnable increases in share
capital, including for the coverage of losses presented in
the financial statements of a subsidiary and as a result of
discounting interest-free returnable payments, less any
impairment losses. Pursuant to IAS 36, impairment is
measured by comparing the carrying amount with the
higher of the following amounts:
fair value, decreased by costs to sell; and
value in use.
The Company controls an entity if it simultaneously:
has power over the entity it invested in;
is exposed to variable returns or has rights to
them; and
can use its power over the entity to affect the
amount of its returns.
In the Company’s opinion, power over individual entities
recognised as subsidiaries is exercised through ownership of
the majority of the total number of votes in the governing
bodies of such entities.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments related to
the assessment of the risk of impairment were presented in
part 3 of these financial statements.

Note 6.2 Receivables due to loans granted
Accounting policies
The Company classifies loans granted to individual categories using the following policies:
Loans measured at amortised cost to this category, the Company classifies loans that met two conditions: they are in
a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash flows due to holding assets, and have passed the SPPI
(solely payments of principal and interest) test, that is they are maintained in order to collect the principal amount and
interest. They are initially recognised at fair value adjusted by costs directly associated with the loan and are measured
at the end of the reporting period at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, including impairment
calculated using the model of expected credit losses on the basis of discounted cash flows.
POCI loans the Company classifies as POCI, at the moment of initial recognition, financial assets that are credit-impaired
due to high credit risk at the moment they are granted or if the loans were purchased at a significant discount. POCI
loans are measured at the end of the reporting period at amortised cost using the effective interest rate adjusted by the
credit risk, including impairment calculated using the model of expected credit losses (ECL) on the basis of discounted
cash flows in the horizon of the expected repayment of the loan. The loss allowance for ECL is calculated on the basis of
expected credit losses during the whole life of the instrument. Accumulated changes to the expected credit losses are
recognised as an increase or a reversal of an already recognised loss allowance for expected credit losses. Currently
presented POCI loans are loans granted (not acquired). Classification was set due to the implementation of IFRS 9 in 2018
due to the recognised impairment at the moment of initial recognition.
The loans measured at fair value through profit or loss to this category, the Company classifies loans that did not pass
the SPPI (solely payments of principal and interest) test. The fair value of these loans is set at present value of future cash
flows, including the change of market risk and credit risk factors during the loans’ life.
Financial assets, for which the Company has to calculate the expected credit losses pursuant to IFRS 9, are classified to
one of three degrees of a model of impairment. Classification to individual degrees of impairment model is at the level
of a single financial instrument (a single exposure).
To the degree 2, the Company classifies financial instruments with an identified significant increase in credit risk,
understood as a significant increase in probable default in the remaining time of the instrument as compared to the date
of its initial recognition, but there were no objective indicators of impairment. The expected credit losses for the degree
2 are estimated during the entire life of these instruments.
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
43
If at the end of the reporting period the analysis proves that for a given financial instrument, since the day of its initial
recognition, there was not a significant increase in credit risk and no default status was granted, the instrument is
classified to the degree 1 of a model of impairment. For exposures classified to the degree 1, the expected credit losses
are estimated in a horizon of 12 months.
Balances with an identified, objective indication of impairment are included in the degree 3. At the end of the reporting
period, no financial instrument was defaulted (criteria classifying to the degree 3) and therefore, the Company did not
classify any of the loans granted to the degree 3.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
Failed SPPI test - The Company assumes that the solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) test for loans granted is
not passed if, among others, in the structure of financing the target recipient of funds, debt is changed at the last stage
into an equity investment.
Indications to classify the loan to the degree 2 of impairment model is the occurrence of one of the following:
for exposition of the borrower’s rating - at the level of Baa3 (per the Moody’s methodology or a corresponding one
for the S&P/Fitch ratings) or better (investment rating) a drop in the borrower’s rating by at least 5 levels,
for exposition of the borrower’s rating - at the level of Ba1 (per the Moody’s methodology or a corresponding one
for the S&P/Fitch ratings) or worse (below investment rating) a drop in the borrower’s rating by at least 3 levels,
deterioration of operational cash flows forecasts of a borrower in the time horizon of the exposure, which does
not result in the impossibility of settling the liability arising from a given loan,
change in conditions of the loan due to the worsening financial position of the borrower, which has an impact of
less than 1% of the value of the loan at the date of change (a change in the conditions of the loan from reasons
other than the worsening financial position of the borrower are not included in the assessment of occurrence of
a given indication),
delay in the repayment of over 30 days (after the maturity date of interest or capital).
Balances with an identified, objective indication of impairment are included in the degree 3. The Company recognises
occurrence of at least one of the following events as an objective indication of default:
borrower’s rating at the level of Ca (per the Moody’s methodology or a corresponding one for the S&P/Fitch ratings) or
lower,
deterioration of operational cash flows forecasts of a borrower in the time horizon of the exposure, which results
in the impossibility of settling the liability arising from a given loan,
change in conditions of the loan due to the worsening financial position of the borrower, which has an impact of
more than 1% of the value of the loan at the date of change (a change in the conditions of the loan from reasons
other than the worsening financial position of the borrower are not included in the assessment of occurrence of
a given indication),
delay in the repayment of over 30 days (after the maturity date of interest or capital) if at the date of analysis the
loan was at stage 2 of calculating the allowance for impairment,
delay in the repayment of over 90 days (after the maturity date of interest or capital) if at the date of analysis the
loan was at stage 1 of calculating the allowance for impairment.
In order to calculate expected credit losses (ECL), the Company uses, among others, the following parameters:
the borrower’s rating - is granted using internal methodology of the Company based on the Moody’s methodology.
The Company granted loans mainly to subsidiaries, of which over 99% of borrowers were assigned ratings between
A3 Baa3 (in the comparable period: A2 Baa2).
the curve of accumulated parameters of PD (parameter of probability of default, used to calculate the expected
credit losses) for a given borrower is set on the basis of market sector quotations of Credit Default Swap contracts
from the Reuters system, which quantify the market expectations as for the potential probability of default in a
given sector and in a given rating. As at 31 December 2023, PD parameters for the adopted ratings were as follows:
A3 to Baa3 ratings according to Moody’s (31 December 2023)
Up to one year
0.75% - 1.01%
1-3 years
0.75% 4.63%
More than 3 years (at the date of loans’
maturity)
0.75% 25.87%
A2 to Baa2 ratings according to Moody’s (31 December 2022)
Up to one year
0.69% - 1.39%
1-3 years
1.84% - 3.22%
More than 3 years (at the date of loans’
maturity)
1.84% - 9.92%
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
44
The level of the LGD parameter (loss given default, expressed as the percentage of the amount outstanding) for the
purposes of estimating expected credit losses for loans classified to the stage 1 and 2 is adopted at the level of 75%
(based on estimations from Moody’s Default and recovery rates for project finance bank loans, 1983-2021).
As at 31 December 2023 no decision was made whether to demand the repayment of loans with a contractual on-demand
payment clause, including in the period of 12 months from the balance sheet date, and no joint decision was made by
the owners of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. in this regard.
The Company classifies loans granted to one of the three following categories:
1. Measured at amortised cost, which were determined to be credit-impaired at the moment of initial recognition (POCI),
2. Measured at amortised cost, which were not determined to be credit-impaired at the moment of initial recognition,
3. Measured at fair value through profit or loss.
Loans that at the last stage of cash flows between companies in the Future 1 Sp. z o.o. holding structure or KGHM
INTERNATIONAL LTD. were transferred as loans to a joint venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M., advanced by the KGHM
INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group, were classified as POCI loans (identified allowance for impairment due to a credit risk at the
moment of granting). These loans, pursuant to contractual terms, are paid on demand, but not later than 15 December
2024, however because the repayment of the loan was not made in the agreed-upon period of 12 months from the end of
the reporting period, the Company presents the balance of the loan as a long-term receivable.
The Company presents, in the category of loans classified as measured at fair value through profit or loss, loans that at the
last stage of cash flows between companies in the Future 1 Sp. z o.o. holding structure or KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. were
transferred mainly as increases in share capital of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. The maturity of these loans falls in December 2024.
At the end of the reporting period, the Company performed a measurement of loans classified to level 3 of the fair value
hierarchy (measured at fair value as well as at amortised cost (for disclosure purposes)) designated mainly for financing the
joint venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M. The basis of measuring the level of recoverability of loans at the level of the separate
financial statements of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. is the estimation of cash flows generated by Sierra Gorda S.C.M and other
significant international production assets, which are subsequently allocated by the Company in individual loans at various
levels of the current financing structure. The estimate of cash flows generated by Sierra Gorda S.C.M. and other mines was
determined on the basis of current forecasts of pricing paths of commodities and current mining plans.
The expected repayments of loans were discounted using:
the effective interest rate adjusted by the credit risk, determined at the initial recognition of the loan pursuant to
IFRS 9.B5.5.45 at the level of 3.69% - 6.64% - for loans measured at amortised cost,
the market interest rate at the level of 6.17% - 9.13% - for loans measured at fair value.
In the period from 1 January to 31 December 2023, the following was recognised:
loss on recognition of an allowance for impairment of loans granted classified as POCI in the amount of
PLN 6 million (USD 2 million translated at exchange rates from the date of recognition of the allowance for
impairment),
for loans measured at fair value an increase in fair value in the amount of PLN 563 million was recognised
(USD 230 million).
The increase in the fair value of loans is mainly a result of an increase in expected future cash flows of Sierra Gorda S.C.M.
estimated on the basis of current, at the end of the reporting period, forecasts of price paths of commodities.
In the case of other loans measured at amortised cost, the Company calculated the allowance for impairment on the
basis of the model of expected credit losses.

Fair value measurement
Accounting policies
Important estimates, assumptions and
judgements
Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset
or would be paid for a transfer of a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement
date. For financial reporting purposes, a fair value hierarchy was
established that categorises the inputs into three levels. The fair
value hierarchy levels are as follows:
Level 1 Value is based on inputs from active markets, as they are
seen as the most reliable source of data.
Level 2 Value is based on inputs other than from active markets,
which are nevertheless observable (unbiased,
measurable).
Level 3 Value is based on unobservable inputs, used when it is
not possible to acquire data from the first two
measurement levels. It includes all measurements
based on subjective inputs.
Transfer between levels of the fair value hierarchy takes place if
there is a change of sources of input data used for fair value
measurement, such as:
active market,
lack of an active market, but there is observable data on the
market,
subjective input data.
It is acknowledged that transfers between levels of the fair value
hierarchy take place at the end of the reporting period.
Fair value measurement is not a specific measurement
for a given unit, but should be based on market,
including any assumptions which market participants
would consider in the process of measurement.
Sometimes, given the limited availability of inputs,
carrying out a fair value measurement requires
selecting appropriate measurement techniques,
under which a unit should make maximum use of
observable data. In the case of the Company’s assets,
this involves in particular derivatives. The assumptions
and estimates applied in their measurement are
presented in Note 7.1.
To determine fair value, the adoption of specified
assumptions and judgments is especially required for
assets whose fair value measurement cannot be made
based on inputs arising from an active market or from
the use of other data, regardless of how amenable
they are to objective and measurable observation.
Details on assumptions adopted for fair value
measurement may be found in the further part of the
Note 7.1 Methods and techniques used in determining
fair value.

51
Methods and measurement techniques used by the Company in determining fair values of each class of financial assets or
financial liabilities.
Level 1
Listed shares
Shares are measured based on quotations from the Warsaw Stock Exchange and the TSX Venture Exchange in Toronto.
Long-term debt securities
Long-term debt securities are measured based on quotations from the Catalyst Market of the Warsaw Stock Exchange.
Level 2
Long-term loans granted
The fair value of loans measured at amortised cost was estimated on the basis of contractual cash flows (per the contract)
using the model of discounted cash flows, including the borrower’s credit risk. IBOR current market interest rare acquired
from the Reuters system is used in the discounting process.
Unquoted shares
Unquoted shares are measured using the adjusted net assets. Observable input data other than the ones from the active
market were used in the measurement (e.g. transaction prices of real estate similar to the one subjected to measurement,
market interest rates of State Treasury bonds and term deposits in financial institutions, and the risk-free discount rate
published by the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority).
Trade receivables
Receivables arising from the realisation of sales under contracts which are finally settled using future prices were measured
using forward prices, depending on the period/month of contractual quoting. Forward prices are from the Reuters system.
For trade receivables transferred to non-recourse factoring, a fair value is assumed at the level of the amount of the trade
receivables transferred to the factor (nominal value from the invoice) less interest, which are the factor’s compensation.
Due to the short term between the transfer of receivables to the factor and their payment, fair value is not adjusted by the
credit risk of the factor and the impact of time lapse.
Other financial assets/liabilities
The fair value of receivables/payables due to the settlement of derivatives, whose date of payment falls two working days
after the end of the reporting period was set per the reference price applied in the settlement of these transactions.
Currency and currency-interest derivatives
To determine the fair value of derivatives on the currency market and currency-interest transactions (CIRS), the forward
prices from the maturity dates of individual transactions were used. The forward price for currency exchange rates was
calculated on the basis of fixing and appropriate interest rates. Interest rates for currencies and the volatility ratios for
exchange rates were taken from the Reuters system. The standard Garman-Kohlhagen model is used to measure options
on currency markets.
Metals derivatives
To determine the fair value of derivatives on the commodity market, forward prices from the maturity dates of individual
transactions were used. In the case of copper, official closing prices from the London Metal Exchange were applied, and
with respect to silver and gold - the fixing price set by the London Bullion Market Association. Volatility ratios and forward
prices for measurement of derivatives at the end of the reporting period were obtained from the Reuters system. Levy
approximation to the Black-Scholes model was used for Asian options pricing on metals markets.
Received long-term bank and other loans
The fair value of bank and other loans is estimated by discounting the cash flows associated with these liabilities in
timeframes and under conditions arising from agreements, and by applying current rates. Fair value differs from the
carrying amount by the amount of the premium paid to acquire the financing.
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
52
Level 3
Long-term loans granted
The fair value of loans was estimated using the forecasted cash flows of international assets (Sierra Gorda S.C.M.), which
pursuant to IFRS 13 are unobservable input data, and the fair value of assets determined using the same data is classified
to level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Detailed disclosures on the assumptions adopted for the measurement of loans were presented in Note 6.2, while the
sensitivity of the fair value classified to level 3 for loans granted was presented in Note 7.5.2.5.
The Company does not disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortised cost (except for long-term
loans granted, long-term bank and other loans received and long-term debt securities) in the statement of financial position,
because it makes use of the exemption arising from IFRS 7.29.
There was no transfer in the Company of financial instruments between levels of the fair value hierarchy in the reporting
period.

Note 7.2 Derivatives
Accounting policies
Derivatives are classified as financial assets/liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss, unless they have not
been designated as hedging instruments.
Purchases or sales of derivatives are recognised at the transaction date.
Derivatives not designated as hedges, defined as trade derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value and at the end of
the reporting period are measured at fair value, with recognition of the gains/losses on measurement in profit or loss.
The Company applies hedge accounting for cash flows. Hedge accounting aims at reducing volatility in the Company’s
net result, arising from periodic changes in the measurement of transactions hedging individual types of market risk to
which the Company is exposed. Hedging instruments may be derivatives as well as bank and other loans in foreign
currencies.
The designated hedges mostly relate to the future sales transactions forecasted as assumed in the Sales Plan for a given
year. These plans are prepared based on the production capacities for a given period. The Company estimates that the
probability that transactions included in the production plan will occur is very high, as from the historical point of view
sales were always realised at the levels assumed in Sales Plans. Future cash flows arising from interest on bonds issued
in PLN also represent a hedged position.
The Company may use natural currency risk hedging through the use of hedge accounting for bank and other loans
denominated in USD, and designates them as positions hedging foreign currency risk, which relates to future revenues
of the Company from sales of copper, silver and other metals, denominated in USD.
Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the cash flow hedging instrument are recognised in other
comprehensive income, to the extent by which the change in fair value represents an effective hedge of the associated
hedged item. In addition, as a cost of hedging, the Company recognises in other reserves from measurement of financial
instruments a part of the change of the hedging instrument arising from changes in the time value of the option, the
forward element and currency margin. The portion which is ineffective is recognised in profit or loss as other operating
income or costs. Gains or losses arising from the cash flow hedging instrument are recognised in profit or loss as a
reclassification adjustment, in the same period or periods in which the hedged item affects profit or loss.
The Company ceases to account for derivatives as hedging instruments when they expire, are sold, terminated or settled,
or when the goal of risk management for a given relation has changed.
The Company may designate a new hedging relationship for a given derivative, change the intended use of the derivative,
or designate it to hedge another type of risk. In such a case, for cash flow hedges, gains or losses which arose in the
periods in which the hedge was effective are retained in accumulated other comprehensive income until the hedged
item affects profit or loss.
If the hedge of a forecasted transaction ceases to function because it is probable that the forecasted transaction will not
occur, then the net gain or loss recognised in other comprehensive income is immediately transferred to profit or loss
as a reclassification adjustment.
If a hybrid contract has an underlying instrument, which is not a financial asset, the derivative is separated from the
underlying instrument and is measured pursuant to rules for derivatives only, if (i) the economic characteristic and risk
of the embedded instrument are not strictly related to the character of the host contract and its risks, (ii) a separate
instrument, whose characteristics reflect the traits of the embedded derivative, would fulfil the conditions of the
derivatives, and (iii) the combined instrument is not classified to financial assets measured at fair value, whose results
of revaluation are recognised in other income or other operating costs in the reporting period. If an embedded derivative
is separated, the underlying instrument is measured pursuant to appropriate accounting principles. The Company
separates embedded derivatives in commodities transactions with settlement periods in the future, after the date of
recognising a purchase invoice in the books up to the date of final settlement of the transaction.
If a hybrid contract has an underlying instrument, which is a financial asset, the criteria for classification of financial
assets are applied to the whole contract.
Important estimates and assumptions
Assumptions and estimates adopted for the measurement of fair value of derivatives were presented in Note 7.1, in the
item „Methods and measurement techniques used by the Company in determining fair values of each class of financial
assets or financial liabilities” and in tables in point 7.2. of this part.

Note 7.3 Other financial instruments measured at fair value
Accounting policies
The item “Other financial instruments measured at fair value” includes: shares (listed and unquoted) which were not
acquired for trading purposes, for which the option of measurement at fair value through other comprehensive income
was selected in order to limit the volatility of the result.
These assets are initially recognised at fair value increased by transaction costs, and at the end of the reporting period
they are measured at fair value with recognition of gains/losses from measurement in other comprehensive income.
The amounts recognised in accumulated other comprehensive income are not transferred later to profit or loss, while
accumulated gains/losses on a given equity instrument are transferred within equity to retained earnings at the moment
an equity instrument ceases to be recognised. Dividends from such investments are recognised in profit or loss.
The fair value of listed shares is calculated based on the closing price as at the end of the reporting period.
The translations of shares expressed in a foreign currency is performed according to the accounting policies described
in Note 1.5.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
The fair value of unquoted shares is calculated using the adjusted net assets method. The application of this method is
due to the specific nature of the assets of companies whose shares are subject to measurement. Observable Input data
other than ones from the active market were used in the measurement (e.g. transaction prices of real estate similar to
the one subjected to measurement, market interest rates of State Treasury bonds and fixed-term deposits in financial
institutions, and the risk-free discount rate published by the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority).

The measurement of listed shares is classified to level 1 of the fair value hierarchy (i.e. measurement is based on the prices
of these shares listed on an active market at the measurement date), while the measurement of unquoted shares is
classified to level 2 (i.e. measurement based on observable data, which however is not from an active market).
In 2023 as well as in 2022, there were no dividends from companies in which the Company had shares classified as other
financial instruments measured at fair value.
In 2023 as well as in 2022, there were no transfers of accumulated gain or loss within equity in respect of companies in
which the Company holds shares classified as other financial instruments measured at fair value.
Due to investments in listed companies, the Company is exposed to price risk. Changes in the listed share prices of these
companies resulting from the current macroeconomic situation may have a significant impact on the level of other
comprehensive income and the accumulated amount recognised in equity.

Sensitivity analysis for significant types of market risk to which the Company is exposed presents the estimated impact of
potential changes in individual risk factors (at the end of reporting period) on profit or loss and other comprehensive
income.
Potential changes in share prices at the end of the reporting period were determined at the level of standard deviations
from the WIG20 index for a period of 3 calendar years ended at the end of the reporting period.
Note 7.4 Other long-term financial instruments measured at amortised cost
Accounting policies
Important estimates, assumptions and judgements
The item other long-term financial instruments measured
at amortised cost includes financial assets designated to
cover the costs of decommissioning mines (accounting
policies with respect to the obligation to decommission
mines are presented in Note 9.4) and other financial assets
not classified to other items.
Assets included, in accordance with IFRS 9, in the category
“measured at amortised cost”, are initially recognised at fair
value adjusted by transaction costs, which can be directly
attributed to the purchase of these assets and measured at
amortised cost at the end of the reporting period using
the effective interest rate method, reflecting impairment.

Note 7.5 Financial risk management
In the course of its business activities the Company is exposed to the following main financial risks:
market risks:
o commodity risk,
o risk of changes in foreign exchange rates,
o risk of changes in interest rates,
o risk of changes in other merchandise, including energy and energy carriers,
o price risk related to investments in shares of listed companies (Note 7.3),
credit risk, and
liquidity risk (the process of financial liquidity management is described in Note 8).
The Company’s Management Board manages identified financial risk factors in a conscious and responsible manner, using
the Market Risk Management Policy, the Purchase policy of electricity, property rights, guarantees of origin and gaseous
fuels, the Financial Liquidity Management Policy and the Credit Risk Management Policy adopted by the Company.
Understanding the threats arising from the Company's exposure to risk and maintaining an appropriate organisational
structure and procedures enable an effective achievement of tasks. The Company identifies and measures financial risk on
an ongoing basis, and also takes actions aimed at minimising its impact on the financial position of the Company.
The process of financial risk management in the Company is supported by the work of the Market Risk Committee, the
Standing Committee, the Financial Liquidity Committee and the Credit Risk Committee.
Note 7.5.1 Market risk
The market risk to which the Company is exposed to is understood as the possible occurrence of negative impact on the
Company's results arising from changes in the market prices of commodities, exchange rates and interest rates, as well as
the share prices of listed companies.
Note 7.5.1.1 Principles and techniques of market risk management
The Company actively manages the market risk to which it is exposed.
In accordance with the adopted policy, the goals of the market risk management process are as follows:
limit volatility in the financial result;
increase the probability of meeting budget targets;
decrease the probability of losing financial liquidity;
maintain the good financial condition of the Company; and
support the process of strategic decision making related to investing, including financing sources.
The objectives of market risk management should be considered as a whole, and their realisation is determined mainly by
the Company’s internal situation and market conditions. Actions and decisions concerning market risk management in the
Company should be analysed in the context of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group’s global exposure to market risk.
Taking into account the potential scope of their impact on the Company’s results, market risk factors were divided into the
following groups:
Group

Group I factors with

A strategic approach is applied to this group, aimed at

subsequent periods while taking into account the long-
term cyclical nature of various markets. A hedging
position may be restructured before it expires.

The Company manages market risk by applying various approaches to particular, identified exposure groups.
The Company considers the following factors when selecting hedging strategies or restructuring hedging positions: current
and forecasted market conditions, the internal situation of the Company, the effective level and cost of hedging, and the
impact of the minerals extraction tax.
The Company applies an integrated approach to managing the market risk to which it is exposed. This means a
comprehensive approach to market risk, and not to each element individually. An example is the hedging transactions on
the currency market, which are closely related to contracts entered into on the metals market. The hedging of metals sales
prices determines the probability of achieving specified revenues from sales in USD, which represent a hedged position for
the strategy on the currency market.
The Company executes derivative transactions only if it has the ability to assess their value internally, using standard pricing
models appropriate for a particular type of derivative, and which can be traded without significant loss of value with a
counterparty other than the one with whom the transaction was initially entered into. In evaluating the market value of
given instruments, the Company uses information obtained from leading information services, banks, and brokers.
The Company's internal policy, which regulates market risk management principles, permits the use of the following types
of derivatives:
swaps;
forwards and futures;
options; and
structures combining the above instruments.
The instruments applied may be, therefore, either of standardised parameters (publicly traded instruments) or non-
standardised parameters (over-the-counter instruments). Primarily applied are cash flow hedging instruments meeting the
requirements for effectiveness as understood by hedge accounting. The effectiveness of the financial hedging instruments
applied by the Company in the reporting period is continually monitored and assessed (details in Note 7.2 Derivatives
accounting policies).
The economic relationship between a hedging instrument and a hedged position is based on the sensitivity of the value of
the position to the same market factors (metals prices, exchange rates or interest rates) and on matching appropriate key
parameters of the hedging instrument and the hedged position (volume/notional amount, maturity date).
The hedge ratio of the established hedging relationship is set at the amount ensuring the effectiveness of the relationship
and is consistent with the actual volume of the hedged position and the hedging instrument. Sources of potential
ineffectiveness of the relationship arise from a mismatch of the parameters of the hedging instrument and the hedged
position (e.g. the notional amount, maturity, base instrument, impact of credit risk). When structuring a hedging transaction,
the Company aims to ensure a maximal match between these parameters to minimise the sources of ineffectiveness.
The Company quantifies its market risk exposure using a consistent and comprehensive measure. Market risk management
is supported by simulations (such as scenario analysis, stress-tests, backtests) and calculated risk measures. The risk
measures being used are mainly based on mathematical and statistical modelling, which uses historical and current market
data concerning risk factors and takes into consideration the current exposure of the Company to market risk.
One of the measures used as an auxiliary tool in making decisions in the market risk management process is EaR - Earnings
at Risk. This measure indicates the lowest possible level of profit for the period for a selected level of confidence (for
example, with 95% confidence the profit for a given year will be not lower than…). The EaR methodology enables the
calculation of profit for the period incorporating the impact of changes in market prices of copper, silver and foreign
exchange rates in the context of budget plans.
Due to the risk of production cutbacks (for example because of force majeure) or failure to achieve planned foreign currency
revenues, as well as purchases of metals contained in purchased materials, the Company has set limits with respect to
commitment in derivatives:
up to 85% of planned, monthly sales volumes of copper, silver and gold from own concentrates, while: for copper
and silver - up to 50% with respect to instruments which are obligations of the Company (for financing the hedging
strategy), and up to 85% with respect to instruments representing the rights of the Company.
up to 85% of planned, monthly revenues from the sale of products from own concentrates in USD or of the
monthly, contracted net currency cash flows in case of other currencies. For purposes of setting the limit,
expenses for servicing the debt denominated in USD decrease the nominal amount of exposure to be hedged.
These limits are in respect both of hedging transactions as well as of the instruments financing these transactions. The
maximum time horizon within which the Company decides to limit market risk is set in accordance with the technical and
economic planning process and amounts to 5 years, whereas in terms of interest rate risk, the time horizon reaches up to
the maturity date of the long-term financial liabilities of the Company.
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
60
With respect to the risk of changes in interest rates, the Company has set a limit of commitment in derivatives of up to
100% of the debt’s nominal value in every interest period, as stipulated in the signed agreements.
Note 7.5.1.2. Commodity risk
The Company is exposed to the risk of changes in the prices of the metals it sells: copper, silver, gold and lead. The price
formulas used in physical delivery contracts are mainly based on average monthly quotations from the London Metal
Exchange for copper and lead and from the London Bullion Market Association for silver and gold. The Company’s
commercial policy is to set the price base for physical delivery contracts as the average price of the appropriate future
month.
The permanent and direct link between sales proceeds and metals prices, without similar relationships on the expenditures
side, results in a strategic exposure. In turn, operating exposure is a result of possible mismatches in the pricing of physical
contracts with respect to the Company’s benchmark profile, in particular in terms of the reference prices and the quotation
periods.
On the metals market, the Company has a so-called long position, which means it has higher sales than purchases. The
analysis of the Company’s exposure to market risk should be performed by deducting from the volume of metals sold the
amount of metal in purchased materials.
The Company’s strategic exposure to the risk of changes in the price of copper and silver in the years 2022-2023 is
presented in the table below.

The notional amount of copper price hedging strategies settled in 2023 represented approx. 32% (25% in 2022) of the total
sales of this metal realised by the Company (it represented approx. 50% of net sales
1
in 2023 and 42% in 2022).
The notional amount of silver price hedging strategies settled in 2023 represented approx. 10% of the total sales of this
metal realised by the Company (24% in 2022).
In 2023, pursuant to the Market Risk Management Policy, the Company monitored and analysed on an ongoing basis the
macroeconomic environment and the situation on financial markets, and also identified and measured market risk related
to changes in metals prices (testing the impact of market risk factors on the financial result, balance sheet and the statement
of cash flows). In 2023, no hedging transactions were entered into on the copper and silver markets. All derivative
transactions entered into in the previous periods as part of the strategic management of Company against risk of changes
in metals prices were settled.
In 2023 QP adjustment swap transactions were entered into on the copper and gold markets with maturities of up to June
2024, as part of the management of a net trading position
2
.
As a result, as at 31 December 2023 the Company held open derivatives positions on metals market entered into solely
under strategic management of a net trading position (for 9.2 thousand tonnes of copper and 18.3 thousand ounces of
gold) with settlement period falling up to June 2024. As at 31 December 2022, the Company held open derivatives positions
on the copper market for 193.5 thousand tonnes (including: 189 thousand tonnes under strategic management of market
risk, while 4.3 thousand tonnes was entered into under management of a net trading position) and for 4.2 million troy
ounces of silver.

Note 7.5.1.3 Risk of changes in foreign exchange rates
Regarding the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates, the following types of exposures were identified:
transaction exposure related to the volatility of cash flows in the base (functional) currency, and
exposure related to the volatility of selected items of the statement of financial position in the base (functional)
currency.
The transaction exposure to currency risk derives from cash flow-generating contracts, the value of which expressed in the
base (functional) currency depend on future levels of exchange rates of the foreign currencies with respect to the base
(functional) currency (for KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. it is the Polish zloty). Cash flows exposed to currency risk may possess
the following characteristics:
denomination in the foreign currency cash flows are settled in foreign currencies other than the functional
currency, and
indexation in the foreign currency cash flows may be settled in the base currency, but the price (i.e. of a metal)
is set in a different foreign currency.
The key source of transaction exposure to currency risk in the Company’s business operations are the proceeds from sales
of products (with respect to metals prices, processing and producer margins).
The Company’s exposure to currency risk also derives from items in the statement of financial position denominated in
foreign currencies, which under the existing accounting regulations must be translated, upon settlement or periodic
valuation, by applying the current exchange rate of the foreign currencies versus the base (functional) currency. Changes
in the carrying amounts of such items between valuation dates result in the volatility of profit or loss for the period or of
other comprehensive income.
Items in the statement of financial position which are exposed to currency risk include in particular:
trade receivables and trade payables related to purchases and sales denominated in foreign currencies;
financial receivables due to loans granted in foreign currencies;
financial liabilities due to borrowings in foreign currencies;
cash and cash equivalents in foreign currencies; and
derivatives on metals market.
As for the currency market, the notional amount of settled transactions hedging revenues from metals sales amounted to
approx. 26% (in 2022: 20%) of the total revenues from sales of copper and silver realised by the Company in 2023.
In 2023, as part of the active management of an open hedging position, a position on the currency market was restructured.
Part of the collar options structures hedging revenues from sales in the period from July 2023 to December 2024, in the
total notional amount of USD 990 million (USD 55 million on a monthly basis), was closed, which led to cash inflow due to
option premiums of approx. PLN 533 million in the first half of 2023. The positive hedge result accumulated in equity was
partly recognised in the operating result for the second half of 2023 (total amount of PLN 171 million) and will be
systematically recognised in the operating result for the subsequent months of 2024 (total amount of PLN 345 million).
Moreover, collar options structures hedging revenues from sales in 2024 in the notional amount of USD 660 million
(USD 55 million on a monthly basis) were restructured by transforming them into put spread
3
structures, which enabled
full participation in potential increases in the USD/PLN exchange rate.
As a result, as at 31 December 2023 the Company held an open position on the currency market for the notional amount
of USD 660 million (USD 2 955 million as at 31 December 2022), and Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap (CIRS) transactions for
the notional amount of PLN 2 billion, hedging revenues from sales in the currency as well as the variable interest of issued
bonds.
The condensed table of open transactions in derivatives on the currency market as at 31 December 2023 is presented
below (the hedged notional in the presented periods is allocated evenly on a monthly basis).

Note 7.5.1.4 Interest rate risk
In 2023 the Company was exposed to the risk of changes in interest rates due to loans granted, investing free cash,
participating in a cash-pooling service and borrowing.
Positions with variable interest rates expose the Company to the risk of changes in cash flow from a given position as a
result of changes in interest rates (i.e. it has an impact on the interest costs or income recognised in the profit or loss).
Positions with fixed interest rates expose the Company to the risk of fair value changes of a given position, excluding items
measured at amortised cost, for which the change in fair value does not affect their measurement and profit or loss.
The main items which are exposed to interest rate risk are presented below.

In 2023 the LIBOR reference rates in borrowing agreements entered into by the Company were replaced by SOFR or CME
TERM SOFR reference rates. These rates are also applicable to newly-signed agreements with financial institutions
denominated in USD.
In October 2023, the Steering Committee of the National Working Group on the reform of reference rates, which was
appointed in connection with the reform of reference rates in Poland, revised the schedule of the process of replacing the
WIBOR and WIBID reference rates with the new RFR (risk-free-rate) reference rate. During work on this reform, a variety of
challenges specific to the Polish financial sector resulting from the scale and structure of agreements and instruments
based on WIBOR were identified, thereby generating risk to the safe conduct of the conversion. This resulted in the
designation of a new schedule for the introduction of these changes in order to limit risk and the costs of reforming the
reference rates. The Committee set the final date of the conversion as at the end of 2027.
Until 2027, the IBOR reform will not have an impact on the interest rate applied in the Company’s derivatives, because the
CIRS transactions entered into (open cross currency interest rate swaps) and bonds issued by the Company are based on
the WIBOR reference rate. In the case of this benchmark, until 2027 we are in the transitional period, during which
adjustments to transactions entered into before the reform will not be required. After 2027, the IBOR reform may have an
impact on cash flow hedging of variable interest of issued bonds (Tranche B) in the amount of PLN 1.6 billion, based on
WIBOR 6M, that is CIRS transactions (cross currency swap) with maturity falling in 2029. The Company applied temporary
exemptions from application of specific requirements of hedge accounting under IFRS 9 due to the IBOR reform and
adopted an assumption that it may continue the hedge relationships. The notional amounts of hedging instruments to
which these exemptions apply are disclosed in the following table.
As at 31 December 2023, the Company estimated that the impact of IBOR reform on the financial statements will be
immaterial.
As at 31 December 2023, the Company held financial instruments based on variable interest rates, which were not yet
replaced by an alternative rate. The amount of financial instruments that are based on a rate subject to planned reform
are presented in the following table:

7.5.1.5 Risk of changes in prices of energy and energy carriers
The risk of changes in prices of electricity and energy commodities is a commodity risk for the Company, the measurement
of which is based on its impact on cash flow.
The Company’s exposure to the risk of volatility in electricity prices, energy commodities and related merchandise involves
the following markets:
electricity and natural gas, which are required to engage in mining and processing operations, including natural
gas used to generate electricity to meet the Company’s needs in its own generating sources,
CO
2
emission allowances, which need to be redeemed due to the level of greenhouse gas emissions by
installations operated by the Company being higher than the level of greenhouse gas emissions for which the
Company received freely-granted rights to emit CO
2
,
property rights to energy resulting from certificates of origin of energy from renewable sources (RES) and energy
efficiency certificates (hereafter: property rights), subject to redemption (required for purposes of redemption
due to the sale of electricity by the Company to end users as well as the consumption of purchased electricity for
own needs).
The management of commodity price risk with respect to planned purchases of electricity and natural gas is based on the
management of exposure to the risk of changes in the prices of electricity and natural gas in a time horizon of up to 36
subsequent months, resulting from electricity and gas purchase plans, less previously-signed purchase contracts with
delivery in future periods.
In the case of changes in electricity prices, the source of exposure are sales prices in bilateral contracts and energy sales
prices on the Polish Power Exchange, where the Company purchases electricity in forward products (RTEE) as well as on
the intra-day and next-day market. Moreover, the Company entered into a contract for the supply of electricity from
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
68
renewable energy sources under a PPA (Power Purchase Agreement), which was entered into to meet the own needs of
the Company and, in accordance with the exemption provided for under IFRS 9 para. 2.4, is not subject to measurement
and recognition as a financial instrument.
In the case of the risk of changes in gas prices, the source of exposure is a contract entered into with ORLEN S.A., according
to which the price of the purchased gas depends to a large degree on the prices quoted on the Polish Power Exchange for
E-type gas (as regards both forward and SPOT contracts).
Commodity risk related to CO
2
emission allowances is connected with the exposure to changes in the prices of emission
allowances quoted in EUR on an exchange (e.g. European Energy Exchange) and in the EUR/PLN exchange rate, as well as
differences in the utilization of CO
2
emission allowances by the Company from planned amounts. In terms of changes in
the prices of CO
2
emission allowances, the Company has a net short position, resulting from the obligation to redeem rights
due to CO
2
systemic emissions which occur as a result of the combustion of coal within coal-bearing materials in installations
functioning in the copper smelters, and also as a result of the combustion of gas in the CCGT (Combined Cycle Gas Turbine)
blocks generating electricity to meet the Company’s needs. In 2023, the Company purchased CO
2
emission allowances in
forward transactions to secure its own needs. Such derivatives, which are acquired and maintained to secure own needs,
are excluded under IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and are not subject to measurement as at the end of the reporting period.
In terms of the risk of changes in property rights, the Company has a net short position resulting from the obligation to
redeem property rights due to the sale of electricity to an end user as well as to the consumption of purchased electricity
for own needs, while the source of exposure are mainly the prices of property rights on the wholesale market, (i.e. on the
Polish Power Exchange). The Company sells electricity mostly to customers which provide services to the Company on
properties belonging to the Company.
Exposure of the Company to a given risk demand volume of individual merchandise for own needs (purchase)

Note 7.5.2 Credit risk
Credit risk is defined as the risk that the Company’s counterparties will not be able to meet their contractual liabilities and
involves three main areas:
the creditworthiness of the customers with whom physical sales transactions are undertaken;
the creditworthiness of the financial institutions (banks/brokers) with whom, or through whom, hedging
transactions are undertaken, as well as those in which free cash and cash equivalents are deposited; and
the financial standing of subsidiaries - borrowers.
In particular, the Company is exposed to credit risk due to:
cash and cash equivalents and deposits;
derivatives;
trade receivables;
loans granted (Note 6.2);
guarantees granted (Note 8.6); and
other financial assets.
Accounting policies
The Company recognises impairment loss on expected credit losses on financial assets measured at amortised cost.
Expected credit losses are credit losses weighed by the default probability. The Company applies the following models
for designating impairment losses:
- the simplified model for trade receivables,
- the general (basic) model for other financial assets.
Under the general model the Company monitors changes in the level of credit risk related to a given financial asset and
classifies financial assets to one of three stages of determining impairment losses based on observations of changes in
the level of credit risk compared to an instrument’s initial recognition. In particular, the following are monitored: the credit
rating and the financial condition of the customer and the payment delay period. Depending on which degree it is
classified to, an impairment loss is estimated for a 12-month period (degree 1) or in the horizon of lifetime (degree 2 and
degree 3). The absolute indicator of default is an overdue period of more than 90 days. The detailed principles of
classification of loans granted to individual degrees of loss allowance for expected credit losses was described in note
6.2.
Under the simplified model the Company does not monitor changes in the level of credit risk during an instrument’s life
and estimates the expected credit loss over the time horizon of maturity of the instrument based on historical data
respecting the repayments of receivables.
Note 7.5.2.1 Credit risk related to cash, cash equivalents and bank deposits
The Company periodically allocates free cash in accordance with the requirements to maintain financial liquidity and limit
risk and in order to protect capital and maximise interest income.
As at 31 December 2023, the total amount of free and restricted cash and cash equivalents of PLN 1 481 million (as at 31
December 2022, PLN 985 million) was held in bank accounts and in short-term deposits. The detailed structure of cash and
cash equivalents is presented in note 8.5.
All entities with which deposit transactions are entered into by the Company operate in the financial sector. These are solely
banks registered in Poland or operating in Poland as branches of foreign banks, which belong to European, American and
Chinese financial institutions with medium-high and medium ratings, an appropriate level of equity and a strong, stable
market position. Credit risk in this regard is continuously monitored through the ongoing review of the financial standing
and by maintaining an appropriately low level of concentration of resources in individual financial institutions.
The following table presents the level of concentration of cash and deposits, with the assessed creditworthiness of the
financial institutions*:

Impairment losses on cash and cash equivalents were determined individually for each balance of a given financial
institution. External bank ratings were used to measure credit risk. The analysis determined that these assets have a low
credit risk at the reporting date. The Company used a simplification permitted by the standard and the impairment loss
was determined on the basis of 12-month credit losses. The calculation of impairment determined that the amount of the
impairment loss is insignificant. These assets are classified to Degree 1 of the impairment model.

due to settled derivatives, the maximum single entity
share of the amount exposed to credit risk arising from these transactions amounted to 24%, or PLN 246 million (as at 31
December 2022: 17%, or PLN 260 million).
In order to reduce cash flows and at the same time to limit credit risk, the Company carries out net settlements (based on
standard framework agreements entered into with its customers, regulating the trade of financial instruments, meaning
ISDA or based on a template of the Polish Bank Association). Moreover, the resulting credit risk is continuously monitored
by reviewing the credit ratings and is limited by striving to diversify the portfolio while implementing hedging strategies.
Despite the concentration of credit risk associated with derivatives’ transactions, the Company has determined that, due to
its cooperation solely with renowned financial institutions, as well as continuous monitoring of their ratings, it is not
materially exposed to credit risk as a result of transactions concluded with them.
The following table presents the structure of ratings of the financial institutions with whom the Company had derivatives
transactions, representing exposure to credit risk.

Accounting policies
The Company applies the simplified model of calculating the allowance for impairment of trade receivables (regardless
of their maturity). The expected credit loss on trade receivables is calculated at the closest ending date of the reporting
period following the recognition of a receivable in the statement of financial position and is updated at every subsequent
reporting period ending date. In order to estimate the expected credit loss on trade receivables, the Company applies a
provision matrix, made on the basis of historical levels of payment of trade receivables, which is periodically recalibrated
in order to update it.
The Company adopted an assumption that the receivable risk is characterised by the number of days of delay and this
parameter determines the estimated PD, i.e. the probability of a delay in payment of trade receivables by at least 90 days.
For the purpose of estimating PD, 5 risk groups have been selected based on the criteria of number of days of delays in
payment, according to ranges presented below as “Important estimates and assumptions”.
The Company defines default as being a failure by a customer to meet its liabilities after a period of 90 days from the due
date. In order to estimate the loss allowance for expected credit losses, the Company takes into account also collaterals
by allocating expected recovery rates to the particular types of collaterals.
Moreover, the Company takes into account forward-looking factor in the applied parameters of the model for estimating
expected losses, by adjusting the base coefficients of default probability. This means that if as a result of analysis of
macroeconomic data, such as for example: current GDP dynamics, inflation, unemployment rate, or WIG index, the
Company recognises any deterioration in them in comparison to the previous period, in the ECL calculation the forward
looking factor, which corrects the risk connected with any decrease in receivables recovery, is taken into account. Despite
the worsening of the GDP dynamics, and taking into consideration the inflation slowdown, favourable performance of
the unemployment rate, and also forecasted significant economy rebound in 2024, the Company did not note any
deterioration of macroeconomic factors to the degree justifying the accounting for forward looking factor as at the end of
the reporting period, that is on 31 December 2023.

The Company limits its exposure to credit risk related to trade receivables by evaluating and monitoring the financial
condition of its customers, setting credit limits, requiring collateral and non-recourse factoring. The terms of factoring
agreements entered into meet the criteria of removing receivables from the books at the moment of their purchase by the
factor. As at 31 December 2023, the amount of receivables transferred to factoring, for which payment from factors was

not received, amounted to PLN 10 million (as at 31 December 2022: PLN 4 million). Information on the amount of revenues
from sales subjected to factoring in the financial period is presented in part 2.
An inseparable element of the credit risk management process performed by the Company is the continuous monitoring
of receivables and the internal reporting system.
Buyer’s credit is only provided to proven customers. In the case of new customers, an effort is made to ensure that sales
are based on prepayments or trade financing instruments which transfer the credit risk to financial institutions.
The Company makes use of the following forms of collateral:
registered pledges, bank guarantees, promissory notes, notarial enforcement declarations, corporate guarantees,
cessation of receivables, mortgages and documentary collection;
ownership rights to goods to be transferred to the buyer only after payment is received;
a receivables insurance contract, which covers receivables from entities with buyer’s credit which have not provided
strong collateral or have provided collateral which does not cover the total amount of the receivables.
Taking into account the aforementioned forms of collateral and the credit limits received from the insurance company, as
at 31 December 2023 the Company had secured 56% of its trade receivables (as at 31 December 2022: 76%).
The total net value of the Company’s trade receivables as at 31 December 2023, excluding the fair value of collaterals,
up to the value of which the Company may be exposed to credit risk, amounts to PLN 471 million (as at 31 December 2022:
PLN 620 million).
The concentration of credit risk in the Company is related to the terms of payment allowed to key clients. Consequently, as
at 31 December 2023 the balance of receivables from the Company’s 7 largest clients, in terms of trade receivables
at the end of the reporting period, represented 49% of the balance of trade receivables (as at 31 December 2022: 64%).
Despite the concentration of this type of risk, the Company believes that due to the available historical data and the many
years of experience in cooperating with its clients, as well as to securities used, the level of credit risk is low.
Note 7.5.2.4 Credit risk related to other financial assets
As at 31 December 2023, the major items in other financial assets were:
cash accumulated in the special purpose Mine Closure Fund in the amount of PLN 398 million (as at 31 December
2022: PLN 358 million);
receivables due to cash pooling in the amount of PLN 424 million (as at 31 December 2022: PLN 588 million). Credit
risk in this regard is continuously monitored through the review of the financial standing and assets of the
subsidiaries participating in the cash pooling.
The account of the special purpose fund, used to accumulate cash in order to cover the costs of decommissioning of mines
is managed by a bank with a medium-high rating (principles of credit risk management connected with allocation of cash
in financial institutions are described in Note 7.5.2.1).
Impairment losses on cash accumulated on the bank account of the Mine Closure Fund was determined based on an
external bank rating. The analysis determined that these assets have a low credit risk at the reporting date. The Company
used a simplification permitted by the standard and the impairment loss was determined on the basis of 12-month credit
losses. The calculation of impairment determined that the amount of expected impairment loss is insignificant.

Loans granted measured at amortised cost
The Company estimates expected credit losses related to loans granted measured at amortised cost in accordance with
the general approach.
Loans granted do not have collaterals limiting the exposure to credit risk, therefore the maximum amount exposed to loss
due to credit risk is the gross amount of the loans, less expected credit losses recognised pursuant to IFRS 9.

In the years 2023 and 2022 no loans were reclassified to degree 3 of the measurement.
For loans measured at amortised cost (excluding POCI), interest is accrued on the gross value using the IRR rate set at the
moment of initial recognition of the loan.
For POCI loans, interest is accrued on the gross value less any allowance for impairment recognised at the moment of initial
recognition, an IRR rate adjusted by credit risk defined at the moment of the loan’s initial recognition (CEIR, credit-adjusted
effective interest rate).
Loans granted measured at fair value
The carrying amount of loans measured at fair value as at 31 December 2023 amounted to PLN 3 766 million. As at 31
December 2022, the carrying amount was PLN 3 233 million. More disclosures on the fair value measurement were
presented in Note 7.1.
The loans granted do not have collaterals limiting exposure to credit risk, therefore the Company estimates the maximum,
potential losses due to credit risk in the amount of 100% of their current fair value, i.e. USD 957 million (PLN 3 766 million),
of which the amount of USD 813 million is due to the nominal value of loans granted.

Sensitivity analysis of the fair value of loans due to the change in forecasted cash flows of Sierra Gorda
As at 31 December 2023 and in the comparable period, the Company classified the measurement to fair value of loans
granted to level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because of the utilisation in the measurement of a significant unmeasurable
parameter, begin the forecasted cash flows of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. More disclosures on the main assumptions (including
unobservable input data) assumed for the calculation of cash flows of Sierra Gorda were presented in the consolidated
financial statements of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group in Note 7.5.2.4.
Because of the significant sensitivity of the forecasted cash flows of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. to changes in the copper price,
pursuant to IFRS 13 para. 93.f the Company performed a sensitivity analysis of the fair value (level 3) of loans to changes in
copper prices.

The Company estimates the concentration risk to be at the level of 100%, since receivables due to loans granted are intra-
group loans (Note 12.1), and 91% of the balance are loans granted to subsidiaries Future 1 Sp. z o.o., Quadra FNX FFI s.a.r.l
and Quadra FNX Holding Chile Limitada, and the majority of which was transferred to finance the joint venture Sierra Gorda
S.C.M.; 8% of the balance are loans granted to KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD., and 1% of the balance are loans granted to
companies in Poland. Detailed information on the loan granting transactions are presented in Note 6.2.

PART 8 Borrowings and the management of liquidity and capital
Note 8.1 Capital management policy
Capital management in the Company is aimed at securing funds for business development and maintaining the appropriate
level of liquidity.
The Company monitors the Group’s level of financial security, among others using the Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA ratio
presented in the table below, which was calculated on the basis of data presented in the Consolidated financial statements
of the KGHM Group.

*Adjusted EBITDA for the period of 12 months ending on the last day of the reporting period, excluding adjusted EBITDA of the joint
venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M.
The level of the Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA ratio achieved in 2023 is consistent with the assumptions adopted by the Group
in the reporting period and confirms its stable financial condition.
The economic situation is one of the most important factors affecting the Company’s financial liquidity.
The Company forecasts the coverage ratio of financial needs by available sources of financing, in order to identify, at a
sufficiently early stage, the possible occurrence of a liquidity gap.
The overriding principle in this process is to ensure the Group’s financial security and stability, while the main tool used to
limit risk is the diversification of financing sources and ensuring they are of long-term maturities.
When making decisions about the use of financial instruments, the Company analyses factors of significance for managing
liquidity, amongst which the basic parameter is the level of interest rates and forecasts regarding their future direction.
The level of interest rates primarily has an impact on the Company’s borrowing potential, understood as the possibility of
obtaining and servicing debt, and consequently its subsequent refinancing. To limit the unfavourable impact of increases
in market interest rates, some of the Company’s borrowings are based on fixed interest rates.
Details regarding the impact of changes in interest rates on the occurrence of liquidity risks are presented in Note 7.5.1.4
of the financial statements.
In the process of managing liquidity and capital, the Company also pays attention to adjusted operating profit, calculated
on the basis of data from the Consolidated financial statements of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, which is the basis
for calculating the financial covenant and which is comprised of the following items:

borrowing agreements. As at the reporting date, in the financial year and after the reporting date, up to the date of
publication of these financial statements, the value of a financial covenant subject to the obligation to report as at 30 June
2023 and 31 December 2023, met the conditions stipulated in the credit agreements.
Note 8.2 Equity
Accounting policies
Other reserves from the measurement of financial instruments arise from the measurement of cash flow hedging
instruments (Note 7.2, Accounting policies) and the measurement of financial assets measured at fair value through other
comprehensive income (Note 7.3, Accounting policies) less any deferred tax effect.
Accumulated other comprehensive income consists of actuarial gains/losses on post-employment benefits less any
deferred tax effect (Part 11, Accounting policies).

As at 31 December 2023 and at the date of signing of these financial statements, the Company’s share capital, in accordance

Based on the Act of 15 September 2000, i.e. the Commercial Partnerships and Companies Code, the Company is required to create reserve capital for any potential (future) or existing losses, to which no less than 8%
of a given year’s profit is transferred until the reserve capital has been built up to no less than one-third of the registered share capital. The reserve capital created in this manner may not be employed otherwise than
in covering the loss reported in the financial statements.
As at 31 December 2023 the statutory reserve capital in the Company amounted to PLN 667 million, and is recognised in retained earnings in the item reserve capital created in accordance with art. 396 of the
Commercial Partnerships and Companies Code.

Note 8.3 Liquidity management policy
The Management Board is responsible for the management of financial liquidity in the Company, and it is performed based
on the approved, appropriate Policy. The Financial Liquidity Committee is a body supporting the Management Board.
The basic principles resulting from the Financial Liquidity Management Policy are:
assuring the stable and effective financing of the Company’s activities,
investment of financial surpluses in safe financial instruments,
limits for individual financial investment categories,
limits for the concentration of funds in financial institutions,
a required investment level rating for banks in which the funds are deposited, and
effective management of working capital.
Under the liquidity management process, the Company utilises instruments which enhance its effectiveness. One of the
instruments used by the Company to deal with ongoing operating activities is cash pooling - locally in PLN, USD and EUR
and internationally in USD and CAD. The Cash Pooling service is aimed at optimising the management of cash resources,
limiting interest costs, the effective financing of current working capital needs and the support of short-term financial
liquidity in the Group.
In order to support current liquidity and to optimise the service of cash management in a group of accounts, the Company
entered into an overdraft facility agreement in the amount of PLN 250 million with availability to 30 June 2024 and the
option of automatic extension by subsequent two years with the bank in which the cash pooling system operates.
Accounting policies
In cash flows from operating activities in the statement of cash flows, the Company presents receivables due to cash
pooling and other liabilities due to settlements within cash pooling agreements in the item “change in other receivables
and liabilities”. Receivables due to cash pooling are receivables from Group companies, which at the end of the reporting
period incurred a debt within the cash pooling agreement. Other liabilities due to settlement within cash pooling
agreements are liabilities of the Company towards participants in the cash pooling system to repay, after the end of the
reporting period, of cash transferred by them, which were not used by the Company for its own needs.
Within cash flows from financing activities, the Company presents proceeds and expenses due to cash pooling and they
represent the Company’s debt towards participants in the cash pooling system, that is cash which the Company uses for
its own needs.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
The cash pooling system was implemented in the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group to actively manage the current
shortages and surpluses of cash on bank accounts of companies participating in the system to possibly the most
efficiently manage the cash and limits of debt with high volatility and liquidity. KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., as a participant
in the system as well as a coordinator in the system, does not treat this activity as an investment activity established in
order to invest free cash and generate profits, but solely as supporting Group companies in managing their current
shortages and surpluses.
In 2023, the Company carried out the process of obtaining short-term financing and continued actions connected with
developing the reverse factoring program.
In order to support the process of working capital management, the Company continuously transfers trade payables to
reverse factoring.
The available reverse factoring program is treated by the Company as an efficient tool supporting the process of working
capital management and is aimed at diversification of sources of financing of working capital. Contracts with factors were
entered into for an indefinite period.
Moreover, work connected with prolonging the availability of long-term financing was carried out in the reporting period.
Actions were continued aimed at conducting safe and responsible financial policy by basing the financing on diversified and
long-term instruments.
In 2023, a multipurpose credit facility agreement was entered into in the amount of USD 250 million and an availability
period of 5 years and the option to extend it by a further 2 years. The resources acquired from this agreement serve to
finance the working capital and support the management of current financial liquidity.

Note 8.4 Borrowings
Accounting policies
Liabilities arising from borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, less (in the case of payment) or plus (in the case
of accrual) transaction costs which are an integral part of the financing drawn, and are measured at amortised cost at
the reporting date using the effective interest rate method. Accrued interest is recognised in finance costs, unless it is
capitalised through property, plant and equipment or intangible assets.

concluded with a syndicate of banks in 2019 with a maturity of 20 December 2024 and an option to extend it by a further
2 years (5+1+1). In the years 2020-2021 the Company received consent from Syndicate Members to extend the term of
the agreement by 2 years in total, i.e. to 20 December 2026. The limit of available financing during the extension period
will amount to USD 1 438 million (PLN 5 659 million). The funds acquired through this credit facility are used to finance
general corporate purposes. Interest is based on SOFR plus a bank margin, depending on the net debt/EBITDA financial
ratio.
The credit facility agreement obliges the Company to comply with the financial covenant and non-financial covenants.
Financing parameters meet the standard conditions of these types of transactions. Pursuant to contractual terms and
conditions, the Company is obliged to report the level of financial covenant for the reporting periods, i.e. as at 30 June
and as at 31 December. The Company continuously monitors the risk of exceeding the levels of the financial covenant
stipulated in the credit facility agreement. As at the reporting date, during the financial year and after the reporting date,
up to the publication of this Report, the value of the financial covenant resulting in the obligation to report as at 30 June
2023 and as at 31 December 2023, complied with the provisions of the agreement.

Note 8.6 Liabilities due to guarantees granted
Guarantees and letters of credit are an essential financial liquidity management tool of the Group.
Accounting policies
The Company issued guarantees which meet the definition of contingent liabilities pursuant to IAS 37 and recognises
them in contingent liabilities, and guarantees which meet the definition of financial guarantees under IFRS 9, and which
are measured and recognised as financial instruments pursuant to this standard.
The liability due to the financial guarantee granted as at the end of the reporting period is recognised at the higher of two
amounts: the initial value of the issued guarantee less the amount of profits recognised in profit or loss on guarantees,
or the amount of an allowance for expected credit losses set pursuant to the principles of the general model, described
in accounting policies in Note 7.5.2.
Important estimates and assumptions
For the calculation of expected credit loss, the Company adopts estimates for the rating, PD (probability of default) and
LGD parameters (loss given default) similarly as for the loans granted (Note 6.2). Calculation of the expected credit
losses takes place in the horizon remaining to the end of the guarantee, while the rating of a guarantee’s beneficiary is
adopted as the rating of the entity used for the purposes of calculating the PD parameter.
As at 31 December 2023, the Company held liabilities due to guarantees and letters of credit granted in the total amount
of PLN 1 537 million. The most significant items secure the following obligations:
Sierra Gorda S.C.M. securing the performance of concluded agreements in the amount of PLN 866 million:
- PLN 866 million (USD 220 million) - a corporate guarantee (financial) securing repayment of a Revolving Credit Facility,
with maturity of the guarantee to September 2024. The carrying amount of the liability due to a financial guarantee
granted was recognised in the amount of PLN 18 million the initial amount of the issued guarantee decreased by
the amount of revenues recognised in profit or loss due to guarantees (the amount of expected credit losses (Stage
2) is PLN 10 million).
other entities:
- PLN 107 million - securing the proper execution by the Company of future environmental obligations related to the
obligation to restore terrain, following the conclusion of operations of the Żelazny Most tailings storage facility (as at

Guarantees securing potential claims against the Company in connection with art. 137 section 2 of the Act of 14 December
2012 on waste, based on which the manager of a tailings storage facility is obliged to create a restoration fund comprised
of cash to execute the obligations related to closure, restoration, and oversight, including monitoring of the tailings storage
facility. The fund may be in the form of a separate bank account, a provision or a bank guarantee. In 2022, the Company
changed the form of the Tailings Storage Facility Restoration Fund from a bank account to a bank guarantee. As at 31
December 2023, the guarantee amounted to PLN 120 million (as at 31 December 2022: PLN 98 million).

PART 9 Non-current assets and related liabilities
Note 9.1 Mining and metallurgical property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
Accounting policies property, plant and equipment
The most important property, plant and equipment of the Company is property, plant and equipment related to the
mining and metallurgical operations, comprised of land, buildings, water and civil engineering structures, such as:
primary mine tunnels (including shafts, wells, galleries, drifts, primary chambers), backfilling, drainage and firefighting
pipelines, piezometric holes and electricity, signal and optical fibre cables. Machines, technical equipment, motor
vehicles and other movable fixed assets, as well as right-to-use assets recognised in accordance with IFRS 16 Leases,
including perpetual usufruct rights to land, are also included in mining and metallurgical property, plant and equipment.
Property, plant and equipment, excluding usufruct right-to-use assets, are recognised at cost less accumulated
depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. In the initial cost of items of property, plant and equipment the
Company includes discounted decommissioning costs of fixed assets related to mining and other facilities which, in
accordance with binding laws, will be incurred following the conclusion of activities. Principles of recognition and
measurement of decommissioning costs are presented in Note 9.4.
An asset’s carrying amount includes costs of significant components, regular major overhauls and significant periodic
repairs, the performance of which determines further use of the asset.
Costs are increased by borrowing costs (i.e. interest, exchange differences and fees representing an adjustment to
interest cost) that were incurred for the purchase or construction of a qualifying item of property, plant and equipment.
Right-to-use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial lease liability and all lease payments paid
on the date the lease began and before that date, less any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred by
the lessee and an estimate of costs which will be incurred by the lessee due to the disassembly or removal of a base
asset or renovation of the site in which it was placed.
The perpetual usufruct right to land is measured at the amount of the liability on the perpetual usufruct right to land,
which is measured using the perpetual rent method and all lease payments paid on the date the lease began or before
that date (including payments for acquisition of this right on the market).
After the initial recognition, a right-to-use asset, excluding the perpetual usufruct right to land measured using the
perpetual rent method, is measured at cost decreased by accumulated depreciation/amortisation and accumulated
impairment losses, adjusted by the updated measurement of lease liabilities.
Items of property, plant and equipment (excluding land and perpetual usufruct rights to land) are depreciated by the
Company, pursuant to the model of consuming the economic benefits from the given item of property, plant and
equipment:
using the straight-line method, for items which are used in production at an equal level throughout the period of
their usage,
using the units of production method, for items in respect of which the consumption of economic benefits is
directly related to the quantity of units produced, and this production is not spread evenly through the period of
their usage. In particular it relates to machines and mining equipment in gas-steam blocks.
The useful lives, and therefore the depreciation rates of fixed assets used in the production of copper, are adapted to
the plans for the closure of operations, and in the case of right-to-use assets to the earlier of these two dates either to
the useful life end date or to the lease end date, unless the ownership of an asset is transferred to the Company before
the end of the lease, in which case depreciation rates are adjusted to the estimated useful life end date.
For individual groups of fixed assets, the following useful lives have been adopted, estimated based on the anticipated
useful lives of mines and metallurgical plants:
For own fixed assets:

The Company performs regular reviews of its property, plant and equipment in terms of the adequacy of applied useful
lives to current operating conditions.
The individual significant parts of a fixed asset (significant components), whose useful lives are different from the useful
life of the given fixed asset as a whole are depreciated separately, applying a depreciation rates which reflects its
anticipated useful life.
Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying
amount may not be recoverable.

Accounting policies intangible assets
Mining and metallurgical intangible assets are mainly comprised of exploration and evaluation assets.
Exploration and evaluation assets are measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
The following expenditures are recognised in the cost of the asset:
geological projects;
obtaining environmental decisions;
obtaining concessions and mining usufruct for geological exploration;
work related to drilling (drilling; geophysical and hydrogeological research; geological, analytical and geotechnical
services; etc.);
the purchase of geological information;
the preparation of geological documentation and its approval;
the preparation of economic and technical assessments of resources for the purpose of making decisions regarding
applying for mine operating concessions; and
equipment usage costs (property, plant and equipment) used in exploratory work.
Expenditures on exploration and evaluation assets are measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses and are
recognised as intangible assets not yet available for use.
The Company is required to test an individual entity (project) for impairment when:
the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting mineral resources is demonstrable; and
the facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of exploration and evaluation assets may exceed
their recoverable amount.
Any potential impairment losses are recognised prior to reclassification resulting from the demonstration of the
technical and economic feasibility of extracting the mineral resources.

Note 9.2 Other property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
Accounting policies
Other property, plant and equipment are recognised at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment losses. The policy regarding impairment is presented in Note 9.1. Depreciation is done using the straight-
line method.
For individual groups of fixed assets, the following useful lives have been adopted:
Group
Total useful lives
Buildings
25-60 years
Technical equipment and machines
4-15 years
Motor vehicles
3-14 years
Other fixed assets
5-10 years
Intangible assets presented as “other intangible assets” include in particular: acquired property rights not related to
mining operations and software as well as CO
2
emission allowances (the appropriate accounting policies may be found
in Note 9.7). These assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. Intangible
assets are amortised using the straight-line method over their anticipated useful lives. The useful lives of the main
groups of intangible assets are as follows:

Note 9.4 Provision for decommissioning costs of mines and other technological facilities
Accounting policies
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
The provision for future decommissioning costs of mines and
other technological facilities is recognised based
on the estimated expected costs of decommissioning of such
facilities and of restoring the sites to their original condition
following the end of operations. Estimation of this provision is
based on specially-prepared studies using ore extraction
forecasts (for mining facilities), and technical-economic studies
prepared either by specialist firms or by the Company.
The amount of provision represents the estimated future
decommissioning costs of mines discounted to present value.
Revaluation of this provision is made in two stages:
1) estimation of the costs of decommissioning mines to the
current value in connection with the change in prices using
the price change indices of construction-assembly production
published by the Central Statistical Office.
2) discounting of the decommissioning costs to the current
value using real discount rates calculated based on the
nominal interest rates and the inflation rate (quotient of the
nominal rate and the inflation rate), whereby:
the nominal interest rate is based on the yield on
treasury bonds at the end of the reporting period, with
maturities nearest to the planned financial outflows
and if there are no treasury bonds with maturities
close to the planned financial outflows - the nominal
interest rate is determined by the professional
judgment of the Company's Management on the basis
of the consistency of the adopted assumptions,
the inflation rate is based on the forecast of future
inflation used in the calculation of future employee
benefits liabilities.
A change in the discount rate or in the estimated
decommissioning cost adjusts the value of the relevant item of
fixed assets, unless it exceeds the carrying amount of the item
of fixed assets (any surplus above this amount is recognised in
other operating income).
The increase in the provision due to the time lapse is recognised
in finance costs.
The provision for decommissioning costs of mines and other
technological facilities includes the balance of the Mine Closure
Fund and Tailings Storage Facility Restoration Fund, which the
Company creates under separate regulations, i.e. the Act of 9
For the measurement of provision, the Company
adopted, for the years 2024-2025, inflation rates at the
level of the NBP’s forecast from November 2023, that
is 4.6% and 3.7%, respectively, and for subsequent
periods at the level of 2.5%, in line with the long-term
inflation target (in the comparable period, the
Company revised its approach to the discount rates
used to measure environmental provisions. At the end
of 2022, with a bond yield of +/- 6.845% and inflation
of +/- 13.1%, the Company received and applied for
the years 2022-2023 a negative real discount rate of -
5.53% instead of a rate of 0%. For the subsequent two
measurement periods, that is for 2024 and 2025, the
Company adopted inflation rates at the level of the
NBP’s forecast, that is 5.9% and 3.5%, respectively, and
for subsequent periods, following the NBP’s forecast -
at the level of 2.5%, in line with the long-term inflation
target).
Moreover, for the first 10 years of measurement of the
provision (that is to 2033), the Company adopted a
risk-free rate of 5.2% (yield of 10-year treasury bonds)
due to the fact that it is the only publicly available
information on the risk-free rate for the subsequent
10 years, and pursuant to the adopted judgment, this
rate was not modified. The Company will adjust the
risk-free rate to the level of this rate announced at
every subsequent end of the reporting period in order
to measure the provision at those days (in the
comparable period, for the first 10 years of
measurement of the provision (that is to 2032), a risk-
free rate of 6.845% was adopted).
In turn, taking into account the high volatility of the
risk-free rate that took place in the last period, based
on yield of 10-year treasury bonds, the Company
applied a professional judgment to determine this rate
for the estimation of provisions falling after a period
of 10 years from the end of the annual reporting
period based on the historical observation of the ratio
of the risk-free rate to the assumed inflation target. As
a result of the judgement, the Company adopted the
risk-free rate of 3.5% for the estimation of provision
after a period of 10 years from the end of the annual
reporting period, which translated into a real discount
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated

June 2011 Geological and Mining Law and the Act of 14
December 2012 on waste, respectively. The role of the Funds is
to secure cash for the future realisation by the Company of its
obligations related to the closure, decommissioning and
restoration of mines and tailings storage facilities, by collecting
them in the manner provided for by the laws.
In the case of the Mine Closure Fund, the Company has
separated a bank cash account to which it transfers cash
equivalent to 3% of the depreciation charges on fixed assets of
mines, determined in accordance with the provisions of the
Income Tax Act. Details on the credit risk related to the cash
accumulated on the separate account of Mine Closure Fund are
presented in Note 7.5.2.4.
In the case of Tailings Storage Facility Restoration Fund, in July
2022 the Company changed the form of securing the funds of
this Fund, replacing a separate bank account with financial
guarantees issued by the bank on demand of the Company, of
which the Company is also a beneficiary. As at 31 December
2023, the amount of guarantees was PLN 120 million, and their
value is updated on an annual basis. The Company strives to fully
secure funds for the restoration of individual tailings storage
facilities in the year for which the liquidation and restoration
schedule provides for the closure of a given tailings storage
facility, by systematically increasing the value of these
guarantees.

costs in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets (during the period from 1 January 2022 to 31 December 2022:
PLN 181million).
The capitalisation rate applied by the Company to determine borrowing costs in 2023 amounted to 3.92% (in 2022: 4.56%).
Note 9.6 Lease disclosures the Company as a lessee
Accounting policies
As a lessee, the Company identifies leases in usufruct agreements, inter alia, land, perpetual usufruct right to land, and
transmission easements, buildings and constructions as well as technical equipment and machines.
The Company applies a uniform lease accounting model, which assumes that the lessee recognises the right-to-use
assets and lease liabilities related to all lease agreements, including exemptions. The Company does not recognise lease
assets and liabilities in relation to:
short-term leases - for agreements without the option to purchase an asset, concluded for a period shorter than 12
months from the commencement of the agreement, including agreements concluded for an indefinite period with
a short notice period if there is no reasonable certainty that the Company will not make use of termination,
leases in respect of which the underlying asset has a low value.
In the case of an agreement that is or includes a lease, the Company recognises each lease component under
the agreement as a lease, separately from non-lease components.
The right-to-use assets and the measurement policy for these assets are presented in Note 9.1.
The Company initially measures the lease liability at the present value of lease payments due to be paid as at the date
of initial recognition, which include: fixed lease payments, variable lease payments which are dependent on an index
or rate, amounts which the lessee is expected to pay under the guaranteed residual value, the strike price call option if
it is reasonably certain that the lessee will exercise the option, and penalties for terminating the lease if the lease period
was set with the assumption that the lessee will terminate the agreement. In fixed lease payments, the Company also
includes payments for the exclusion of land from forestry and agricultural production, if they relate to land used under
lease agreements.
The lease payments exclude variable payments made by the lessee to the lessor for the right to use the underlying asset
during the lease period, which depend on external factors other than payments based on a rate or index. After the date
the lease began, the Company measures the carrying amount of lease liabilities by:
an increase due to interest on lease liabilities,
a decrease due to paid lease payments,
an update due to reassessment or modification of a lease agreement.
Lease liabilities are presented in Note 8.
Lease rate - lease payments are discounted by the Company using the incremental borrowing rate of the lessee because
generally speaking, the interest rate of a lease agreement is difficult to determine.

agreements containing guaranteed residual values, which have been included in the measurement of lease liabilities.
Moreover, as at the end of the reporting period, the Company did not have any lease agreements that had not commenced
yet, to which it was obliged as a lessee.
Note 9.7 Greenhouse gas emissions allowances
Accounting policies
CO
2
emission allowances received free of charge and purchased, intended to be used for the entity's own needs, are
recognised as intangible assets.
At the moment of initial recognition:
CO
2
emission allowances received free of charge and related non-financial subsidies (recognised as the settlement of
deferred income) are measured at fair value corresponding to the market value of these allowances on the date of
their initial recognition.
purchased CO
2
emission allowances are measured at cost.
At the end of the reporting period, emission allowances are measured at initial value less amortisation and impairment
losses. The value of the CO
2
emission allowances is not subject to depreciation/amortisation, if their end value is equal
to or higher than their carrying amount.
Disposals of the emission allowances recognised as intangible assets are carried out in accordance with the FIFO method.
CO
2
emission allowances recognised as intangible assets are settled and excluded from the register whenever they are
redeemed* by the Company. The settlement of CO
2
emission allowances is recognised in the provision which is created
in accordance with the obligation to redeem the allowances.
This provision is recognised when the obligation to provide redemption allowances arises, respectively to the amounts
of the pollutants emitted. The provision is measured in relation to the value of emission allowances held, at the carrying
amount of these rights, and in the case of their deficit, at the market value of the emission allowances as at the date the
provision was created.
The provision is recognised in the production cost.
In the statement of profit or loss, the Company settles the subsidy recognised in deferred income in the period for which
it was granted. The subsidy settled up to the cost of the created provision (respectively to the tonnage of CO
2
emissions
covered by the provision) is offset in the Statement of profit or loss by the cost of the created provision. The subsidy in
the amount which exceeds the cost of the created provision (both in terms of the amount as well as the value) is
recognised as other operating income.
* Redemption means fulfilling the obligation imposed by the provisions of the Act on greenhouse gas emission trading scheme
on the owner of the Installation, consisting of the redemption of allowances on the allowance account by persons authorised to
operate accounts in the Union Registry, for each Installation separately, in the number covering the actual emissions of
pollutants for the previous year.

in the amount of PLN 3 million as assets held for sale, due to the fulfilment of the criteria set in IFRS 5 (i.e. they are available
for immediate sale in their current state, the sale is highly probable, and it is expected that it will take place within 1 year
from the date of classification as held for sale). Due to their insignificant value, these shares were not separated in the
statement of financial position to a separate item "Non-current assets held for sale" and are included in this statement
under the item "Investments in subsidiaries".

PART 10 Working capital
Note 10.1 Inventories
Accounting policies
The Company measures inventories at cost, not higher than the sales price less costs of completing production and costs
to sell.
Any differences in the value of finished goods constitutes a write-down and is recognised in the costs of sold products.
Fixed indirect costs of production are allocated on the basis of the normal level of production capacity utilisation.
The valuation of the inventory component disposal is made according to the weighted average purchase price and the
weighted average actual production cost.
The Company also classifies as inventories stand-by spare parts that do not meet the criteria for recognition as property,
plant and equipment in accordance with IAS 16 par. 7 and in accordance with the principles of capitalization of significant
components, adopted in the accounting principles of the Company, where a materiality threshold of at least PLN 300
thousand has been set, for which the spare parts are analysed in terms of meeting the capitalization criteria of IAS 16. In
relation to the above, stand-by spare parts are in particular recognised as inventories, the value of which is insignificant
or are not replaced at regular intervals, or which, after their installation, due to the failure of a spare part in an item of
property, plant and equipment, will not contribute to the obtainment of higher economic benefits from further use of
this component than those assumed at the moment of initial recognition of the component and putting it into use. The
costs of such stand-by spare parts are recognised in profit or loss as they are consumed, as current maintenance costs
of assets.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
The Company measures inventories at cost, not higher than the net realisable value. The potential difference in the
amounts represents a write-down of inventories of copper, silver and other products (at various processing stages), up
to the net realisable value is recognised in the cost of manufacturing of sold products in the period, in which the write-
down was recognised.
The Company determines the net sales price of copper at the end of the reporting period on the basis of forward LME
(London Metal Exchange) curve for the metal, set for months in which the sale of metal inventories will be made.

Note 10.1.1 Property rights arising from certificates of origin for electricity generated in renewable energy
sources and from energy efficiency
Accounting policies
Property rights to energy are certificates attesting to the source of electricity which confirm that the electricity is generated
by renewable energy sources (RES). The generation of energy by renewable energy sources is attested to by so-called green,
blue and violet property rights to energy.
Energy efficiency certificates, so-called white certificates, are certificates confirming the claims of market participants
related to declarations of energy savings resulting from their application of measures, or the implementation of actions
aimed at improving the energy efficiency.
Recognition of acquired property rights to energy and of certificates attesting to energy efficiency
Acquired property rights to energy and certificates attesting to energy efficiency are recognised in the statement of financial
position as merchandise, and at the date of acquisition are measured at cost, comprised of:
- the value of certificates of origin (based on the current market price), or
- the amount of the negotiated contractual price, in cases where these rights are purchased in off-trading sessions.
At the end of the reporting period these assets are measured at cost less any impairment losses, though no higher than
the net sale price.
Recognition of freely acquired certificates attesting to energy efficiency
Freely acquired certificates resulting from the act on energy efficiency are recognised as merchandise, while their free
acquirement is treated as a non-financial subsidy and is measured at the moment of initial recognition at fair value. Initial
recognition in the accounting books of property rights arising from certificates of origin resulting from the act on energy
efficiency occurs at the moment of their receipt.
Subsidies resulting from the receipt of freely acquired certificates attesting to energy efficiency are recognised, as a subsidy
to assets, in accruals, and are subsequently settled systematically in the financial result in other operating income, following
the depreciation of fixed assets, whose acquisition/generation resulted in the arising of the energy efficiency for which the
Company received the certificates.
At the end of the reporting period, freely acquired certificates attesting to energy efficiency are measured at initial cost less
any impairment losses, though no higher than the net sale price.
Recognition of income and disposal of property rights to energy and of certificates attesting to energy efficiency
Measurement of the disposal of property rights and of certificates attesting to energy efficiency are made using the FIFO
method. The disposal resulting from their sale is transferred to the financial result and is recognised as the value of
merchandise sold. The income from the sale of property rights to energy and of certificates attesting to energy efficiency is
recognised in the financial result as income from the sale of merchandise.
The deficit of property rights to energy and of certificates attesting to energy efficiency is supplemented by their purchase
or by a payment of a substitute fee. Any failure to carry out an obligatory redemption of property rights arising from
certificates for renewable energy sources or from energy efficiency, or any failure to pay a substitute fee, results in the
incurring a financial penalty by a company. The amount of the penalty incurred is recognised in other operating costs.
Provision for costs of meeting the obligation to redeem property rights to energy and of certificates attesting to
energy efficiency
Due to the obligation to redeem property rights to energy and of certificates attesting to energy efficiency, the Company
creates a provision in accruals.
The Company creates a provision:
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
107
- charged to the costs of merchandise sold to the extent in which the obligation to redeem rights and certificates attesting
to energy efficiency involves electricity purchased and resold to an end-user, and
- charged to the costs of production to the extent in which the obligation to redeem rights involves electricity purchased
and consumed to meet the company’s own needs.
This provision is measured at the carrying amount of the property rights to energy or certificates attesting to energy
efficiency held and, in the case of their deficit, at the market value of the property rights (certificates) at the date the
provision is created or at the amount of the substitute fee corresponding to the amount of the energy sold, depending on
which of these amounts is lower.
Settlement of the amount of the provision and the redemption of property rights occurs at the date of redemption of these
rights by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office.

Note 10.2 Trade receivables
Accounting policies
Trade receivables are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the receivables contains a significant financial
component subject to separation and therefore the receivables are initially recognised at fair value. After initial
recognition, receivables are measured as follows:
- receivables not transferred to non-recourse factoring and not based on the M+ pricing formula*: at amortised cost
while taking into account the loss allowance for expected credit losses (trade receivables with maturity dates of
less than 12 months are not discounted),
- receivables transferred to non-recourse factoring: at fair value through profit or loss, where the fair value is
determined in the amount of their carrying amount less the factor’s compensation, which include, among others,
interest costs and risk assumption costs. Because of the short duration between the transferral of receivables to
the factor and its payment and due to the low credit risk of the counterparty (factor), the fair value of these
receivables does not include an adjustment by the impact of these factors. Receivables transferred to non-recourse
factoring are obligatorily designated to the category of financial assets measured at fair value through profit or
loss, because they were classified to a business model in which cash flows are realised solely by selling financial
assets.
- receivables based on the M+ pricing formula: at fair value through profit or loss, where the fair value is set as the
nominal value (i.e. at the price in the invoice), adjusted by the impact of market and credit risks. Adjustment due
to the market risk is calculated as the difference between the current market price for a given pricing period in the
future (the period in which there will be a final determination of the settlement price) and the receivables’ price
recognised in the accounting books (multiplied by the sales volume). Adjustment due to the credit risk is calculated
analogously to the calculation of expected credit losses for trade receivables measured at amortised cost.
Receivables based on the M+ pricing formula are obligatorily designated to the category of financial assets
measured at fair value through profit or loss, because these assets do not pass the SPPI (solely payments of
principal and interest) test because of the element of variable price after the date of initial recognition of the
receivables.
Receivables measured at fair value may be measured based on the M+ pricing formula as well as due to the transfer to
factoring. The measurements are carried out independently of each other. The result of both measurements is
recognised in the profit or loss in other operating income/(costs).
* The M+ pricing formula means that for individual transactions for the sale of copper and silver products, the final sales price
is determined after the date of recognition of the sale, based on, for example, the average of the stock exchange quotations of a
given metal in the month of sale or in the month following the month of sale.
The Company is exposed to the credit risk and currency risk related to trade receivables. Credit risk management and
assessment of the credit quality of receivables is presented in Note 7.5.2.3. while information on the currency risk is
presented in Note 7.5.1.3.

Note 10.3 Trade and similar payables
Accounting policies
Trade and similar payables are initially recognised at fair value less transaction cost and are measured at amortised cost
at the end of the reporting period.
Accrued interest due to repayment of payables at a later date, in particular payables transferred to reverse factoring, is
recognised in profit or loss, in the item “finance costs”.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
Trade and similar payables presented in the Statement of financial position also contain trade payables transferred to
reverse factoring, which are in the category of “similar”.
At the moment of transfer of the liabilities to reverse factoring, the Company recognises payables towards the factor,
who due to the subrogation of receivables, from the legal point of view, assumes the rights and obligations common for
trade payables. Reverse factoring is not directly regulated by IFRS, and as a result of the ambiguous nature of the
transaction, it was necessary for the Company to make an important judgment on the presentation of balances of
liabilities transferred to factoring in the Statement of financial position and the presentation of transactions in the
Statement of cash flows.
In the Company’s opinion, in presenting the balance of trade payables transferred to reverse factoring as „Trade
and similar payables” (assigned to the category of “similar”) together with other trade payables and not as debt liabilities,
the following aspects had a crucial impact:
from the legal point of view, at the moment of subrogation of liability by the reverse factoring there is a transfer
of rights and obligations arising from the liabilities, rather than their expiry and the establishment of new rights
and obligations in respect of the factor,
there is no establishment of new guarantees related to the reverse factoring, nor are there any changes
in commercial terms related to any breach of the contract terms and annulment of a contract,
the goal of the program is not only to improve the Company’s liquidity, but also to provide support to suppliers
engaged in obtaining favourable financing in order to build long term business relationships,
the established payment deadlines, as well as payment models (including as regards interest and discounting)
do not change in respect of trade payables towards a given supplier which are not subject to reverse factoring.
In light of the above, as well as taking into account the established interest rates and discounts and extended
repayment periods, cash flows related to the liabilities transferred to reverse factoring do not change by more than
10%,
costs related to reverse factoring are incurred both by the Company and its suppliers. The Company incurs interest
cost arising from the payment of liabilities over an extended period, while the supplier incurs a discount cost due
to early (that is, before the end of the base term, which is usually 60 days) payment received from the factor,
the Company, together with individual suppliers, on the basis of signed contracts, will determine which invoices
will be transferred to reverse factoring, and what the deadline for early payment to the supplier through the factor
will be.
Moreover, although the Company identified characteristics which indicate the nature of reverse factoring as liabilities due
to financing (liability due to credit granted by the factor), they were judged by the Company to be insufficient for the
purpose of recognising that, at the moment of transfer of trade payables to reverse factoring, there is a complete change
in the nature of the relationship from that of a trade to a debt one, which would necessitate presentation in the Statement
of financial position as debt financial liabilities and presentation in the Statement of cash flows, in financial activities:
the factor is a bank, and at the moment of subrogation by the factor there is a change in the debtor,
in order to obtain more favourable terms, the factoring agreement was negotiated with the factor by the Company
and not directly by the suppliers,
the actual deadline for the payment of trade payables subject to reverse factoring is longer (and amounts to up
to 180 days) than the deadline for the payment of other trade payables, which are not transferred to factoring
(which usually amounts to 60 days),
the main costs of reverse factoring are incurred by the Company, and suppliers are charged only if they receive
payment on the date before the date stipulated in the trade contract, which usually amounts to 60 days from the
day of receiving the invoice by the Company (discount for the payment before 60 days or other, stipulated in the
trade contract).
As part of the analysis of IFRS in the context of presenting the balance of trade payables transferred to reverse factoring,
the Company also analysed the statement published in December 2020 by the International Financial Reporting
Interpretations Committee (Committee) on the presentation of reverse factoring transactions in the statement of financial
position and the statement of cash flows. In the Company’s opinion, the aspects indicated by the Committee as well as
the summary of the key requirements related to the analysed issue do not have an impact on the conclusions of the
assessment conducted by the Company. The Committee, recommending the appropriate presentation of liabilities
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
110
subject to reverse factoring, indicated the same issues that were analysed and disclosed by the Company as part of
important estimates, assumptions and judgments above. In particular, in the context of the areas of analysis indicated
by the Committee, the Company confirms that:
the transfer of liabilities to reverse factoring did not require the establishment of any additional collateral for
the bank-factor, nor there are any additional guarantees related to reverse factoring established. Furthermore,
there is no change in the trade terms and conditions related to non-compliance with the terms of the contract and
the cancellation of the contract,
taking the above into consideration, and taking into account the agreed interest and discount rates, and the
extended repayment date, the cash flows related to the liability transferred to reverse factoring will not change by
more than 10%; thus, the criteria of ceasing the disclosure of liabilities, i.e. the 10% test and the other criteria for
ceasing the disclosure of liabilities under IFRS 9 have not been met,
the agreed payment dates as well as the payment pattern (including interest and discount rates) do not change
in relation to trade payables towards a given supplier, which are not covered by reverse factoring,
liabilities transferred to reverse factoring are part of the working capital used by the unit in the unit’s regular
operating cycle.
The Company indicates that the actual deadline for the payment of trade payables subject to reverse factoring
is longer (up to 180 days) than the deadline for the payment of other trade payables, which are not transferred
to factoring, which usually amounts to 60 days, which may indicate a change in the nature of these liabilities from trade
to debt. However, this characteristic has been judged by the Company to be insufficient to conclude that when the trade
liability was transferred to reverse factoring, the nature of the liability changed completely. Apart from the above criteria,
no other terms of liabilities covered by reverse factoring differ from the terms of other trade payables.
Therefore, the Company's assessment of the nature of trade payables transferred to reverse factoring and their
presentation, means that the trade payables transferred to reverse factoring are presented by the Company in the
statement of financial position under "Trade and similar payables ", including those under the " similar" category.

In 2023, the factors’ total participation limit amounted to PLN 3 000 million (in 2022: 1 500 million). Currently, the Company
has three concluded agreements for the provision of factoring services, which was implemented in 2019 in order to make
it possible for suppliers to receive repayment of receivables faster, as part of the standard procurement process executed
by the Company, alongside an extension of payment dates of payables by the Company to the factor. In 2023, liabilities in
the amount of PLN 4 247 million were transferred to the factor and the value of trade payables covered by reverse factoring
as at 31 December 2023 amounted to PLN 3 021 million (in 2022 no liabilities were transferred to the factors and therefore
no trade payables were covered by reverse factoring as at 31 December 2022); in the current year, payments made towards
the factors amounted to PLN 1 209 million (in the year ended 31 December 2022 they amounted to PLN 55 million). Interest
costs accrued and paid towards the factor in 2023 amounted to PLN 50 million (in the year ended 31 December 2022 the
interest costs accrued and paid amounted to PLN 0.5 million).
Repayment dates of receivables due to reverse factoring do not exceed 12 months, and consequently all payables
transferred to reverse factoring are presented as short-term.
The item trade and similar payables contains payables due to the purchase and construction of fixed and intangible assets
which, as at 31 December 2023, amounted to PLN 195 million in the non-current part and PLN 1 141 million in the current
part (as at 31 December 2022, respectively PLN 185 million and PLN 975 million).
The Company is exposed to currency risk arising from trade and similar payables and to liquidity risk. Information on
currency risk is presented in Note 7.5.1.3 and on liquidity risk in Note 8.3.
The fair value of trade and similar payables approximates the carrying amount.

Note 10.4 Changes in working capital
Accounting policies
Cash flows arising from interest on reverse factoring transactions are presented in cash flows from financing activities.
The actually repaid principal amounts of receivables transferred to reverse factoring to a factor are presented in cash
flows from operating activities. Moreover, the Company, as regards the changes in working capital in the Statement of
cash flows, presented a separate line “Change in trade payables transferred to factoring” for the purposes of clear and
transparent presentation.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
Due to the lack of uniform market practice with respect to the presentation of reverse factoring transactions in the
Statement of cash flows, the Management Board had to apply its own judgment in this regard. In the case of these
transactions, the Company had to make an assessment as to whether expenses related to payments towards the factor
should be classified to cash flows from operating activities or to cash flows from financing activities in the Statement of
cash flows. Pursuant to IAS 7.11, an entity should present cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities in
a manner which is most appropriate to its business, because it provides information that allows users of financial
statements to assess the impact of those activities on the financial position of the entity and the amount of its cash and
cash equivalents.
Due to the above, in the Company’s view:
presentation of the repayment of the principal amounts of receivables in the reverse factoring in cash flows from
operating activities is compliant with the objective of individual transaction elements and consistent with the
presentation of these transactions in the Statement of financial position. When a legal subrogation of receivables
is made by the factor, from a legal standpoint, the factor assumes the rights and responsibilities characteristic for
trade receivables. Only cash flows from the repayment of principal amounts of receivables from liabilities due to
the purchase and construction of fixed assets and intangible assets are presented under investing activities (more
information may be found in Note 10.3),
the financial aspect related to the factoring transaction is indicated in the presentation of interest in financing
activities. This is consistent with recognising this interest in financing costs in the Statement of profit or loss
pursuant to the accounting policy adopted by the Company for the presentation of interest cost of reverse factoring
in the financial activities.
Moreover, in terms of judgment regarding the presentation of cash flows resulting from reverse factoring transactions in
the statement of cash flows in operating activities, the Company also relies on the position of the International Financial
Reporting Interpretations Committee (Committee) on the presentation of reverse factoring transactions in the statement
of financial position and the statement of cash flows.
In its position, the Committee emphasized that the main problem requiring a decision, in terms of presenting reverse
factoring transactions in the statement of cash flow under IAS 7, is to determine whether cash flows should be presented
as a part of operating or finance activities. The Committee considers that the decision regarding the classification of cash
flows resulting from reverse factoring transactions may result from the previously determined classification of the
relevant liabilities in the statement of financial position. If an entity concludes that a liability transfer to reverse factoring
is a “Trade and similar payable”, and in this way declares it as part of the working capital which is used in the core business
of an entity that generates the revenues, the entity shall present the outflow from the payment for those liabilities as
arising on operating activities in the statement of cash flows. Otherwise, these cash flows should be recognised in finance
activities.
Taking into account the above, the Company assesses the nature of trade payables transferred to reverse factoring and
presents them in the statement of financial position as "trade and similar payables" (information presented in Note 10.3),
which confirms the Company's judgment as to the method of presentation of these transactions in the statement of cash
flows as presented in the accounting policies in Note 10.4.

PART 11 Employee benefits
Accounting policies
The Company is obliged to pay specified benefits following the period of employment (retirement benefits due to one-
off retirement-disability rights, post-mortem benefits and the coal equivalent) and other long-term benefits (jubilee
bonuses), in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement.
The amount of the liabilities due to both of these benefits is estimated at the end of the reporting period by an
independent actuary using the projected unit credit method.
The present value of liabilities from these benefits is determined by discounting estimated future cash outflow using the
interest rates on treasury bonds expressed in the currency of the future benefits payments, with maturities similar to
those of the liabilities due to be paid.
Actuarial gains and losses from the measurement of specified benefits following the period of employment are
recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arose. Actuarial gains/losses from the
measurement of other benefits (for example benefits due to jubilee bonuses) are recognised in profit or loss.
Important estimates and assumptions
The carrying amount of the liability due to future employee benefits is equal to the present value of the liabilities due to
defined benefits. The amount of the liability depends on many factors, which are used as assumptions in the actuarial
method. Any changes to the assumptions may impact the carrying amount of the liability. The interest rate is one of the
basic parameters for measuring the liability. At the end of the reporting period, based on the opinion of an independent
actuary, an appropriate discount rate for the Company is used for setting the present value of estimated future cash
outflow due to these benefits. In setting the discount rate for the reporting period, the actuary extrapolates current
interest rates of treasury bonds along the yield curve expressed in the currency of the future benefits payments, to obtain
a discount rate enabling the discounting of payments with maturities which are longer than the maturities of the bonds.
Other macroeconomic assumptions used to measure liabilities due to future employee benefits, such as the inflation rate
or the minimum salary, are based on current market conditions.
In accordance with IAS 19 par. 78, the actuarial assumptions adopted for the purpose of measurement of employee
benefits in the Company are consistent, as they reflect the economic relations between such factors as inflation, the
salary growth rate, the discount rate and the coal price growth rate.
The assumptions used in the measurement as at 31 December 2023 are presented in Note 11.2.
The following sensitivity analysis is based on the same measurement method which was used to measure liabilities
recognised in the financial statements, that is the Projected Unit Credit Method. During the analysis of impact of a given
factor (assumption), its value is changed by +/- 1 percentage point, while leaving all other assumptions and the database
of people entitled to benefits unchanged. Therefore, the analysis shows the impact of change in only one selected factor.

As the above analysis indicates, the benefits with the longest maturity horizon, i.e. coal equivalents that will be paid to
current employees following their retirement or disability leave, are most sensitive to changes in assumptions. For these
benefits, the deviation ranges from -17.7% to 25% (in the comparable period: from -15.7% to 20.2%).
The least sensitive to changes in assumptions are benefits with a relatively short maturity period, e.g. jubilee awards
depending on the length of service, for which the deviation ranges from -6.6% to 9.1% (in the comparable period:
from -6.1% to 8.4%).

The change in actuarial gains/losses was caused by a change in the assumptions in respect of the discount rate, coal prices
and future expected changes of salary.
For purposes of reassessment of the liabilities at the end of the current period, the parameters assumed were based on
available forecasts of inflation, analysis of coal prices rates and of the lowest salary rates, and also based on the anticipated
profitability of long-term treasury bonds.

Note 12.10.3 Basic principles of regulatory accounting
Regulatory accounting is a specific type of accounting, if compared to the accounting carried out in accordance with the
Accounting Act of 29 September 1994, conducted by an entrepreneur for its regulated activities including energy activities.
In addition to the accounting policy which was described in the financial statements and was the basis for the keeping of
the accounting records and for preparation of the Company’s financial statements, KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. applies the
following accounting principles for the purposes of regulatory accounting:
Causality principle
The allocation of particular revenue and costs is made in accordance with a given assets’ intended purpose and utilisation
of assets to meet the needs of a specified type of activity or service, with the causality principle governing the recognition
of items of revenue and costs in specified types of activity and with the principle of consistency between recognition by
types of activity of items of revenue and costs, which stems from the fact that these items reflect different aspects of the
same events.
Objectivity and non-discrimination principle
The allocation of assets, liabilities, equity, revenue and costs is done objectively and is not aimed at making profits or
incurring losses.
Continuation and comparability principle
The methods and principles used in preparing the report on regulatory accounting are applied in a continuous manner.
This report was prepared using the same principles for the current and comparable periods.
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
125
Transparency and consistency principle
The methods applied in preparing the report on regulatory accounting are transparent and consistent with the methods
and principles applied in other calculations performed for regulatory purposes and with the methods and principles applied
in preparing the financial statements.
Materiality principle (feasibility principle)
The Company permits certain simplifications in measurement, recognition and allocation of items of assets, liabilities,
equity, revenue and costs as long as it does not significantly distort the true picture of the financial position and assets
presented in the financial statements on regulated activities.
Note 12.10.4 Detailed principles of regulatory policy methods and principles governing the allocation of assets,
liabilities, equity, costs and revenues
The Company prepares financial information on its regulated activities by overlapping the regulated activities’ structure
with the Company’s organisational structure. The Company applies, in a continuous manner, various methods for the
allocation of revenue, costs, assets and liabilities to specific types of regulated activities. The following methods were used:
specific (direct) identification method applied if a direct identification of value is possible, for example the level
of revenue from certain activities,
direct allocation method (e.g. the purchase cost of production fuel) this method is applied if there is a direct cause-
and-effect relationship between the consumed resource and the corresponding cost,
indirect allocation method on the basis of a predetermined allocation key, this method is used among others, to
allocate cost in a situation where no direct cause-and-effect relationship between the utilised resource and the cost
item exists and there is a need to use a cost driver (an allocation key) which enables linkage of items with their
respective cost. The most commonly used allocation keys are:
revenue key value of revenue is the allocation key;
production key production units are the allocation key;
power key the installed power of machines and equipment is used for the allocation of indirect costs;
cost key the value of costs is the allocation key;
mixed keys, which combine elements of several different keys; and
other keys appropriate for a specific case.
Assets
In the statement of financial position of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. for the current and comparable periods, the following
items of assets of regulated activities were recognised:
Non-current assets:
1.Fixed assets,
2.Fixed assets under construction,
Current assets:
1. Trade receivables.
Other items of assets in the Company’s statement of financial position were allocated to other activities due to the lack of
a link between these items and regulated activities, or because the share of these items in regulated activities is immaterial.
Fixed assets
The identification and allocation of specific items of fixed assets to regulated activities takes place when these items of fixed
assets are brought into use. Based on the key consumption for energy carriers, being the quantitative share in sales of the
energy carrier in the total volume of the purchased energy carrier less losses, the percentage in the carrying amount of
fixed assets used in the energy activities is established.
Share =
Volume of energy carriers sold externally in the reporting period x 100%
Total volume of purchased energy carrier for the reporting period losses
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
126
Fixed assets under construction
The allocation of fixed assets under construction to regulated activities is achieved by the detailed identification of
expenditures on fixed assets under construction which are related to regulated activities, based on the analysis of
accounting records. The remaining expenditures on fixed assets under construction are recognised in other activities of the
Company.
The Company recognises the full amount of deferred tax assets due to other deductible temporary differences under other
activities, due to their immaterial share in regulated activities.
Trade receivables
Allocation of receivables in specific types of regulated activities is done on the basis of detailed identification of revenues
from specific types of regulated activities, by analysing the accounting records with respect to unsettled sales invoices. The
remaining amount of trade receivables is recognised in other activities. The Company recognises the full amount of other
receivables (i.e. apart from trade receivables) in other activities due to their immaterial share in regulated activities.
Equity and liabilities
In the statement of financial position, the following items were recognised in equity and liabilities for the current and
comparable periods with respect to regulated activities:
Equity
Liabilities
I. Non-current liabilities:
1. Deferred tax liabilities;
2. Future employee benefits liabilities.
II. Current liabilities:
1. Future employee benefits liabilities.
The full amount of other items of liabilities are recognised by the Company in other activities, due to their immaterial share
in regulated activities.
Equity
The Company allocates equity to regulated activities as an item offsetting the assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax liabilities
With respect to regulated activities, deferred tax liabilities were identified arising from taxable temporary differences
between the depreciation of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets for tax purposes and their carrying
amount.
The allocation of deferred tax liabilities due to the depreciation of property, plant and equipment and the amortisation of
intangible assets, with respect to regulated activities, is performed through the use of indicators set for property, plant and
equipment and intangible assets. The Company allocates all deferred tax liabilities arising from other taxable temporary
differences to other operating activities.
Non-current and current liabilities due to future employee benefits
Liabilities due to future employee benefits are allocated to individual types of regulated activities using a revenue key
through the indirect allocation method.
Revenues from sales
Following an analysis of revenues in terms of their allocation to individual types of regulated activities, the Company
identified groups of operations which met the following conditions:
revenues from the sale of electricity distribution;
revenues from the sale of nitrogen-enriched natural gas distribution; and
revenues from the sale of nitrogen-enriched natural gas trade.
Revenues from sales are allocated to individual types of regulated activities using the individual identification method.
Operating costs
Following an analysis of costs in terms of their allocation to individual types of regulated activities, the following types of
operating costs were identified:
costs of electricity distribution services and the distribution of natural gas;
the value of the sold merchandise related to trade in natural gas; and
administrative expenses associated with electricity sold.
in PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Separate financial statements for 2023 Translation from the original Polish version
127
Costs of sales, selling costs and administrative expenses are allocated to separate types of regulated activities based on the
Company's account of the actual costs.
Income tax
The amount of income tax presented in the statement of profit or loss for individual types of regulated activities is set as a
multiple of the financial result and the effective tax rate. The amount of current income tax decreases or increases deferred
income tax, which is calculated from the difference between the carrying amount and the taxable amount of the respective
assets of regulated activities.

The concluded transaction is the first step on the road towards the realisation of the energy transformation strategy. It is a
step towards the diversification of sources and decoupling the Company from volatility of prices on the energy market. The
transaction price amounted to PLN 215 million, paid by a bank transfer in the amount of PLN 141 million in 2023 (an advance
due to acquisition of financial assets) and in the amount of PLN 74 million in 2024.

responsible for their construction is Projekt Solartechnik, a part of the Grenevia (Famur) group and TDJ.
In accordance with the requirements of IFRS 3 Business Combinations, the Group is conducting an analysis whether the
acquired assets and liabilities meet the definition of a business and the transaction should be settled in accordance with
IFRS 3 as a business combination, or whether the acquired assets do not constitute a business and the transaction should
be settled as an acquisition of assets. The results of the concentration test will be recognised in the consolidated financial
statements for the first quarter of 2024.
