PART 1 General information
Note 1.1 Corporate information
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. is the Parent Entity of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group (“the Parent Entity”, “the Company”)
with its registered office in Lubin at 48 M. Skłodowskiej-Curie Street and is a joint stock company registered at the Regional Court
for Wrocław Fabryczna in Wrocław, Section IX (Economic) of the National Court Register, entry no. KRS 23302, on the territory of
the Republic of Poland. Since 1997, the shares of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. have been listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. As at
the date of preparation of these consolidated financial statements, the State Treasury is the largest shareholder of the Company,
with 31.79% share.
The main business activities of the Parent Entity include the mining of copper ore and non-ferrous metal deposits, carried out by
mines on the basis of concessions granted to KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., as well as the production of electrolytic copper, precious
metals (including silver and gold) and other non-ferrous metals, carried out in metallurgical plants, using advanced technologies.
The Company's operations are characterised by a highly integrated technology chain. The Company carries out tasks on its own,
from exploration and acquisition of raw materials through their extraction, production, transport, reaching customers and
stakeholders to responsible waste management, so as to limit its negative impact on the environment as much as possible. The
Parent Entity has a multi-divisional organisational structure, comprised of a Head Office and 10 divisions located in Lower Silesia:
3 mines (Lubin Mine Division, Polkowice-Sieroszowice Mine Division, Rudna Mine Division), 3 metallurgical plants (Głogów
Smelter/Refinery, Legnica Smelter/Refinery, Cedynia Wire Rod Division), the Concentrator Division, the Tailings Division, the Mine-
Smelter Emergency Rescue Division and the Data Center Division.
Also in the case of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group (the Group), the exploration and mining of copper, nickel and precious metals
ore deposits is a key area of activity. On international markets, mining activities are carried out by companies of the KGHM
INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group (a subgroup), which hold legal titles for exploration for and mining of raw materials in the USA, Canada
and Chile. The Group's international presence enables the diversification of raw material sources and strengthens its competitive
position on the global metals market. Detailed information on the scope of mining and metallurgical activities and the location of
production assets is presented 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 2025 (section 1.3.1 and 1.3.2). Moreover, the Group conducts activities that include a number of other
supporting and supplementary activities, which are described in Note 1.2 and Note 2.1.
In 2025, the Parent Entity included 60 subsidiaries in its consolidated financial statements and used the equity method to account
for the shares of the joint venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M.

Note 1.3 Going concern
The consolidated financial statements were prepared under the assumption that the Group’s companies will continue
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 consolidated financial statements the Management Board of the Parent Entity is not aware
of any facts or circumstances that may cast doubt about the going concern in the foreseeable future.
The Management Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. continuously monitors individual business areas in terms of indications of
significant uncertainty as to the capacity to continue operations or a threat to the continuance of the Company’s and the Group’s
operations in the foreseeable future.
During the assessment of the Company’s and the Group’s capacity to continue operations, forecasts of financial liquidity, debt levels
and profitability were taken into account.
The Group identifies and actively manages the liquidity risk understood as the possibility of losing the capacity or limitation of the
ability to cover its current expenses, ensuring the appropriate level of cash and availability of a wide portfolio of flexible sources of
financing in order to ensure capacity to timely meeting the current and future financial obligations. In order to minimise the risk of
occurrence of a liquidity gap, the Group takes actions aimed at ensuring safety and financial stability by diversifying the sources of
financing and ensuring their long-term maturities. The Group is fully capable of meeting its payment obligations on time. The
selected questions on liquidity management, with particular emphasis on ratios, debt level and available sources of financing, are
described in Part 8 Borrowings and the management of liquidity and capital. Moreover, during the assessment of capacity to
continue operations, of significance is the analysis of profitability by monitoring the EBITDA Margin ratio, which is one of the
measures of assessing the activities of individual reporting segments (Part 2 Information on segments and revenues).
To assess the capacity to continue operations by the Company and the Group, the Management Board analysed the current risks,
assessed the impact of armed conflicts throughout the world, including the war in Ukraine (Note 1.3.2) and the impact of risks
associated with the climate change on activities of the Group (Note 1.3.3).
As at the date of signing of these financial statements, no indications of circumstances were identified pointing out the threat to
the continuance of the Company’s and the Group’s operations in the foreseeable future, that is in the period of no less than 1 year
from the end of the reporting period.
Note 1.3.1 Monitored areas macroeconomic conditions
The following macroeconomic factors have the most significant impact on the activities and financial results of the Group: 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.
Market-quoted 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 Group by, among others, derivatives transactions hedging the prices
as well as the exchange rate. At the same time, these parameters have a significant impact on some of the Group’s costs, while the
prices of fuels, energy carriers and electricity also have a direct impact on the level of costs. With regard to energy resources, the
Group applies hedging through, among others, concluding bilateral agreements, forward purchases and the use of derivatives,
which are part of a comprehensive market risk management system. Furthermore, the level of market interest rates was reflected
in the level of discount rates used by the Group in the balance sheet measurement of assets and liabilities recognised in the
consolidated statement of financial position.
All of the aforementioned risk factors have an impact on the measurement of recoverable amount of the Group’s assets, where is
not only the current volatility of prices of commodities and exchange rates shaping the amount of revenues and a significant part
of costs is of significance, but above all the 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 Group was presented
in the following notes:

Middle East
Impact of the war in Ukraine
In the reporting period, the Group did not record any negative impact due to the war in Ukraine, and the potential impact in
subsequent periods is assessed as low.
The most significant risk factors related to the war in Ukraine and which could have an impact on the Group’s activities are changes
in the supply chains, the availability of materials, components, fuels and energy on international markets, the volatility of prices of
copper and silver on commodity markets, the volatility of the USD/PLN exchange rate, volatility in prices of energy carriers and
electricity, and the general uncertainty on financial markets.
From the Group’s point of view, the war in Ukraine has an impact on market risk related to fluctuations in metals prices and stock
market indices in the reporting period. For more information, see Note 3.1 Impairment losses on assets.
To assess the impact of the above-mentioned risk categories on the Group’s operations, a detailed analysis of information on
production, sales, supply chain, personnel management and finance is carried out on an ongoing basis.
Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group has not experienced a significantly negative impact
of volatility of supply chains on its business activities. Taking into account the continuity of energy supplies (natural gas, coal, coke),
the Group currently has full capacity to maintain the continuity of operation of the core production line and all production
processes.
Nevertheless, it cannot be ruled out that the continuation of this armed conflict as well as the system of economic sanctions may
have a significantly negative impact in subsequent periods on suppliers and customers of the Group and lead to unfavourable
deviations in the continuity of materials and services supply chains in the Group.
However, the geopolitical situation associated with the aggression of Russia on Ukraine and the implemented system of sanctions
currently does not limit the operations of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. or other companies of the Group while the risk of interruptions
to the operational continuity of the Company and the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group in this regard is considered to be low.
The ongoing war in Ukraine and limited availability of Russian cathodes on European markets as a result of the war and sanctions
had been discounted by the market, and did not constitute an additional factor affecting the sales results of basic copper products
in 2025. At the same time, the situation associated with the war in Ukraine is not a significant factor in shaping the demand for
copper semi-finished products (ETP wire rod and OFE wire). In this product market, the good economic situation is mainly driven
by significant investments related to the energy transformation in Europe.
In terms of the availability of capital and the level of debt, the Group holds no bank loans drawn from institutions threatened with
sanctions.
In KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. as well as in all international mines of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group as well as in Sierra Gorda
S.C.M., no production stoppages which would have been directly attributable to the war in Ukraine were recorded.
There have been no significant changes in the payment morality of customers, and therefore the inflow of receivables in the Parent
Entity takes place without any major disturbances.
Effects of customs policy and global trade war (USA, China, European Union)
In the reporting period, the Group did not record a negative impact on its business activities due to customs policy and the global
trade war involving the USA, China and the European Union, and the potential impact on the Group in subsequent periods is judged
to be low. The US market does not play a significant role in the geographical structure of sales of products manufactured by the
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group outside of the USA’s borders and therefore the direct impact of announced tariffs will be limited.
Trade of copper and copper-made products is excluded from the general trade agreement and is regulated by other provisions
under the detailed procedure “Section 232”, wherein tariffs are varied for copper at different processing stages. Trade barriers
announced by the USA on copper and copper-made products will have the greatest impact on the American market. In October
2025, China announced the implementation of more restrictive regulations on the export of rare earth metals and products
containing them. China controls most of the processing capacity for these metals, and according to European Commission data, a
significant portion of import of rare earth metals required by European industry comes from China. These changes may result in
PART 1 General information
PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group
Consolidated financial statements for 2025 Translation from the original Polish version
18
delays or difficulties in obtaining export licenses, particularly in relation to the energy transition. Renewable energy components
may therefore become more expensive and less available, which may cause delays in investments in wind farms (especially offshore
wind farms). It should be noted that in response to Chinese trade restrictions, there is a noticeable change in the approach of
European countries to trade with China in terms of, among others, components for the energy transition. In December 2025, Italy
was the first EU country to hold an auction for the supply of solar panels, which banned the participation of Chinese modules, cells
and inverters. In 2026, it is possible that other countries will introduce similar restrictions, aimed at giving priority to components
manufactured in the European Union. With regard to the Polish economy, difficulties in obtaining Chinese-made parts necessary
to increase the capacity of RES installations may potentially result in a slowdown in the energy transition, hindering the reduction
of CO emissions and limiting the growth rate of the share of RES in the Polish energy mix.
Mining and production operations in Poland are and will continue to be of key importance for KGHM. However the potential
escalation of trade barriers in various regions of the world could negatively impact the dynamics of global economic growth and,
consequently, the demand for raw materials. Therefore, economic and political processes affecting international trade are
continuously monitored and analysed by the Company.
Conflict in the Middle East
In the reporting period, the Group did not record any negative impact from factors related to the conflict in the Middle East.
Due to the escalation of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, including the commencement of military operations by the United
States and Israel against Iran, the most significant categories of conflict-related risks affecting the operations of the Company and
the Group are the following:
potential impact on the global economies,
volatility of oil and natural gas prices,
volatility of exchange rates (mainly USD/PLN),
volatility of gold and silver prices,
supply chain disruptions and availability of fuels and energy on international markets.
Due to the high uncertainty related to development of the political situation in the Middle East, neither its scale nor the potential
impact on the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group as at the publication date can be estimated for subsequent periods.

The KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group is a conscious and responsible participant in the energy transition, and considers adaptation
to climate changes and the management of climate risk to be of key importance.
As part of the risk management process, KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. takes climate changes into account by conducting a scenario
analysis based on six baseline scenarios considered in three time perspectives: short - up to 1 year, medium - from 1 to 5 years and
long - over 5 years, with several assumptions:
in the case of scenarios for transition risk, in terms of the implementation of the adopted climate policy and the resulting
changes in parameters important from KGHM's perspective e.g. prices of emission allowances, energy consumption,
changes in demand for copper,
in the case of scenarios for physical risk scenarios, the starting point for the analysis is the levels of greenhouse gas
concentrations in the atmosphere and the resulting changes in the Earth's temperature and the following consequences.
The climate risk related to the transition, to which the Group 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 Group as to the reduction of its impact on the climate.

The Group is exposed to physical climate risk, arising from specific events, in particular related to violent and chronic weather
phenomena resulting from changes in the climate, such as, for example: 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 Group
by, among others, disruptions in the supply chain, the continuity of the core production business and an increase in operating costs
directly related to the business activities as well as through more difficult working conditions.
The Group continuously evaluates the risk associated with the climate and its impact on the 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 2025, section 1.5.
A detailed description of identified, key climate risks associated with the negative impact of climate changes on the activities of the
Group, including description of actions undertaken by the Group 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 2025, section 1.5.
Impact of climate risk on the financial statements
Under the analyses conducted to assess the impact of climate risk on items presented in the Group’s consolidated financial
statements (in particular in the case of variable costs of CO
2
emission allowances, the increase in electricity purchase costs, costs
associated with research and additional expenditures on development of internal energy sources, included in the Energy
Development Program under the Decarbonisation Program), the following areas were subjected to detailed assessment:
adopted economic useful lives 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.
As a result of the aforementioned work, as at 31 December 2025 no material impact of climate risk on the aforementioned areas
was identified.
Details on the analysis of the impact of climate risk on the verification of the economic useful lives of fixed assets are presented in
Note 9.1, and on the revaluation of the provision for decommissioning costs of mines in Note 9.4.
Note 1.3.4 Monitored areas impact of risk associated with activities in other countries
Within the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, a risk management process is realised, under which the current and future, actual and
potential impact of risk on the Group’s operations is assessed. In companies of the Group, including entities conducting business
activities in countries other than Poland, the documents regulating this area are consistent with the ones in force within the Parent
Entity. A detailed description of approach to the corporate risk management and key risk categories, including among others risks
specific to the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group, may be found in the Management Board’s report on the activities of KGHM
Polska Miedź S.A. and the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group in 2025, section 1.5 Risk Management. The key risk categories, which are
characteristic due to diversified locations of production assets of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group outside Poland, that is USA,
Chile and Canada are presented below.
Key risk categories
The most significant risk categories related to conducting business activities in other countries which impact the Group’s operations
are:
the regulatory environment specific for a given country,
the geopolitical situation,
cultural and social differences,
the exchange risk (USD/CLP, USD/CAD),
the specific location impacting the technical and production infrastructure, including environmental aspects,
the risk associated with climate changes.
The Group continuously and in detail analyses factors influencing the increase in exposure to the aforementioned risk categories.
Within KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., there is a dedicated organisational division responsible for, among others, supervision over
international production and development assets.
Regulatory environment specific for a given country
The risk category is most relevant to operations in the USA, Canada and Chile. One of the most complex aspects of global operations
is ensuring conformity with Polish, European as well as local regulations in force in a given country/jurisdiction. Functioning in many
legal systems requires not only the familiarisation with local regulations, but also the ability to adapt to dynamically changing
requirements, and the lack of compliance with regulations may lead to sanctions, fines and negatively impact the Group’s
reputation, and in the worst case limit the activities of individual entities. The most important questions regarding the specifics of
regulatory environment in diversified locations concern ensuring conformity with environmental requirements, labour law,
PART 1 General information
PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group
Consolidated financial statements for 2025 Translation from the original Polish version
20
taxation and associated with mine restoration and closure. These questions are characterised by being significantly different from
the Polish and European legal system.
First of all, in order to mitigate, legislative changes are monitored, compliance with law in force is analysed and cooperation is
ensured with specialised entities providing legal and consulting services as well as obtaining legal rulings from local and national
tax authorities on an ongoing basis to ensure the correct application of the rules relevant to the region. The above also aimed at
enabling, in advance, the undertaking of actions necessary to obtain new or updating held administrative decisions.
Geopolitical situation
The risk category is most relevant to operations in the USA, Canada and Chile. The geopolitical situation, which nowadays is
characterised by a significant uncertainty, may have an impact on the Group’s operations by, among others, potential changes on
global markets, increased restrictions in customs policies, tightening economic sanctions and on-going armed conflicts. The
following may serve as examples: the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, conflicts in the Middle East, unpredictable international and trade
politics of USA.
One of the important aspects shaping the global economic situation is the current US trade policy. From the point of view of the
international assets of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group (mainly in Canada and the USA), changes and instability of trade policy
are a potential risk factor in the area of procurement. The most important threats are:
potential cost increases duties on imported equipment, materials or components can lead to higher purchase costs,
potential supply chain disruptions tariffed suppliers may face delays or limited availability of goods,
provisions in contracts with counterparties existing contracts with suppliers may not take into account sudden increases
in costs, which may lead to the need to renegotiate contracts.
The KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group conducts active risk mitigation activities, such as securing alternative sources of supply,
testing alternative materials in terms of meeting restrictive quality criteria, pre-emptive purchases, securing contractual clauses
and other purchasing strategies.
The Group continuously monitors the international economic situation in order to assess its potential negative impact on the KGHM
Polska Miedź S.A. Group and to undertake actions mitigating this impact in advance.
Cultural and social differences
The risk category is most relevant to operations in Canada and Chile. Cultural and social differences are an important aspect of
conducting activities and have a significant impact on the manner in which a company functions, communication, team
management and decision making. These elements may concern not only the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group’s employees, but
also broadly understood stakeholders. The above also has an impact on the availability of highly qualified personnel, which may
differ depending on the location.
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., as a company aware of the existing differences, takes care to adapt its actions in individual parts of the
world to their local specifics. At the same time the Group actively supports the development of local communities and respects
their culture by respecting rights of indigenous people (which is of particular importance in case of international companies of the
Group). In order to secure the realisation of the company’s strategic goals in terms of international assets, for many years the
Group consistently invests in employee development while respecting their diversity. Human resources play a key role in
development of all areas within the business model, contribute to the global position of the company and the KGHM Polska Miedź
S.A. Group supports local communities and closely cooperates with schools and academic communities.
Currency risk (USD/CLP, USD/CAD)
The risk category is most relevant to operations in Canada and Chile. International assets of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group
are exposed to the market risk associated with volatility of exchange rates, in particular of the USD/CLP and USD/CAD exchange
rates.
More information on currency risk, including on principles and techniques of managing this risk may be found in these consolidated
financial statements, Note 7.5.1 Market risk and in the Management Board’s report on the activities of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and
the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group in 2025, section 1.5.5 Market, credit and liquidity risks.
Specific location impacting the technical and production infrastructure
The risk category is most relevant to operations in the USA, Canada and Chile. International assets of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Group are exposed to the risk associated with the specific location of individual production assets (e.g. desert areas). Risk factors
concern, among others, the availability and maintenance of appropriate technical infrastructure (for example: access to water,
energy sources, railway infrastructure/automotive infrastructure) or issues related to supply chain and availability of materials
necessary for basic operations.

21
The strategy of diversifying suppliers, applied throughout the entire KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group and the application of
alternative solutions is currently effective in mitigating the risk associated with disruptions in supply chains of resources and
materials. In the case of infrastructure, it was designed while taking into account local conditions which may affect its availability,
and operations are conducted pursuant to instructions and procedures in force, alongside a simultaneous realisation of inspections
and maintenance work aimed at keeping individual elements at appropriate technical condition, including investments and
modernisation work.
In addition, conducting business in geographically diverse locations is associated with exposure to specific environmental risks and
raises the need to closely monitor local conditions and diverse legal requirements in the field of environmental protection. In each
entity of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, in accordance with the applicable corporate risk management documentation,
activities involving active management of specific environmental risks are carried out, as well as each of the identified risks is
assessed in terms of potential impact on the natural environment. The developed approach ensures that effective actions are taken
to minimize the negative impact of the Group's operations on the environment and ensure compliance with regulations on natural
environment protection.
Risk associated with climate change
The risk category is most relevant to operations in the USA, Canada and Chile. Exposure to risk associated with climate change may
differ depending on the continent, or even a region, in which a given entity conducts its operations. Due to the above, in its approach
to the management of climate risk the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group takes into account different factors and conditions due to
the location, both in respect of violent and chronic physical risks.
More information on the impact of identified, key categories of climate risk associated with negative impact of climate change on
the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A Group’s operations, including factors specific for international entities, may be found in:

Note 1.4 Declaration by the Management Board on the accuracy of the prepared financial statements
The Management Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. declares that, according to its best judgement, the annual consolidated financial
statements for 2025 and the comparative data have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles currently in force, and
give a true, fair and clear view of the financial position of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group and the profit or loss for the period of
the Group.
The Management Board’s report on the activities of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group
in 2025 presents a true picture of the development and achievements, as well as the condition, of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and the
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, including a description of the basic exposures and risks.
The consolidated financial statements were authorised for publication and signed by the Management Board of the Parent Entity
on 24 March 2026.
Note 1.5 Basis of preparation and presentation
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as
adopted for use by the European Union, on the basis of historical cost, except for financial instruments classified as measured at
fair value and investment properties measured at fair value.
Accounting policies
The accounting policies of the Group which apply to the consolidated financial statements as a whole, as well as important estimates
and their impact on amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements, are presented in the following note.
Consolidation principles
Accounting policies
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Parent Entity and its subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are
understood as being entities which are either directly controlled by the Parent Entity or indirectly through its subsidiaries.
Obtaining control of a subsidiary, which is a business, is accounted for using the acquisition method. Subsidiaries are fully
consolidated from the date on which control is obtained to the date on which control is lost. Balances, incomes, expenses and
unrealised gains recognised in assets from intra-group transactions, are eliminated.
Important estimates and judgments
The assessment of whether the Parent Entity has control over a company requires determining whether it has rights to direct
relevant activities of the company.
Determining what constitutes relevant activities of the company and by which investor it is controlled requires a judgment.
Among others, the following factors are taken into consideration when assessing the situation and determining the nature of
relationships: voting rights, relative voting power, dilution of voting rights of other investors and their ability to appoint members
of key management personnel or members of the supervisory board.
Fair value measurement
Accounting policies
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:
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 appropriate observable input data is not available. Unobservable
input data reflect assumptions that would be adopted by market participants in order to calculate the price of an asset
or a liability, including risk assumptions.
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.

23
Important estimates and judgments
Fair value presents current estimates which may be subject to change in subsequent reporting periods due to market conditions
or due to other factors. There are many methods of measuring fair value, which may result in differences in fair values. Moreover,
assumptions constituting the basis of fair value measurement may require estimating the changes in costs/prices over time, the
discount rate, inflation rate or other significant variables.
Certain assumptions and estimates are necessary to determine to which level of fair value hierarchy a given instrument should
be classified.
Important judgments and estimates on fair value measurement may be found in Note 7.1 The fair value hierarchy of financial
instruments measured at fair value and amortised cost in the statement of financial position.
Financial statements of operations with a functional currency other than PLN
Accounting policies
For purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements in the presentation currency of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
Group, i.e. in PLN, individual items of financial statements of foreign operations whose functional currencies are other than PLN
are translated in the following manner:
(i) assets and liabilities at the closing rate, i.e. at the average exchange rate for that currency announced by the NBP at the
end of the reporting period,
(ii) items of the statement of profit or loss, the statement of comprehensive income and the statement of cash flows - at the
arithmetical average of average exchange rates announced for a given currency by the NBP at the end of each month of a
given reporting period. If there is a significant volatility of exchange rates in a given period, revenues and costs in the
statement of profit or loss and the statement of comprehensive income are translated using the exchange rates as at the
transaction date.
Exchange differences from the translation of statements of operations with a functional currency other than PLN are recognised
in other comprehensive income of a given period
Important estimates and judgments
The consolidated financial statements are presented in PLN, which is also the functional currency of the Parent Entity and the
Group’s subsidiaries, with the exception of Future 1 Sp. z o.o. and entities of the subgroup KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. for which
the functional currency is primarily the US dollar (USD).
The balance of exchange differences from the translation of statements of the aforementioned operations amounted to
PLN 2 202 million in 2025 and PLN 2 491 million in 2024 (Note 8.2.2 Changes of other equity items).
Foreign currency transactions and the measurement of items denominated in foreign currencies
Accounting policies
At the moment of initial recognition, foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency:
at the average exchange rate prevailing on the date of conclusion of the transaction, where the exchange rate prevailing on
the date of conclusion of the transaction is, for the Group entities in which PLN is the functional currency, the average NBP
exchange rate from the working day preceding the transaction date,
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.
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 and are presented in
measurement at fair value.
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.
As compared to the reporting period ended on 31 December 2024, there were no significant changes to the estimation methods.
Changes in estimates as at 31 December 2025 as compared to the aforementioned period arise from changes in assumptions as a
result of changes in business circumstances and/or other variables.

Consolidated financial statements for 2025 Translation from the original Polish version

The accounting policies described in this note and in individual notes were applied by the Group in a continuous manner to all
presented periods.
Note 1.6 Impact of new and amended standards and interpretations
Amendments to standards applied for the first time in the consolidated financial statements for 2025:
Amendments to IAS 21 on how to approach the issue of assessment as to whether a given currency is exchangeable and
how to determine a spot exchange rate if it is not exchangeable, effective on or after 1 January 2025.
Up to the date of publication of these consolidated financial statements, the aforementioned amendment was adopted for use by
the European Union and in the Group’s opinion it does not have an impact on these financial statements.
Note 1.7 Published standards and interpretations, which are not yet in force and were not applied earlier by the Group
Published standards and interpretations which are not yet in force, adopted for use by the European Union:
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 Amendments to the classification and measurement of financial instruments,
effective on 1 January 2026. As a result of conducting a post-implementation review of the application of IFRS 9 Financial
Instruments by the International Accounting Standards Board (hereafter: the Board), the Board published amendments to
IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 on:
- classification of financial instruments (mainly loans granted) associated with ESG features, i.e. in respect of which the interest
is dependent on climate, environmental or social factors. The objective of the amendment is the elimination of
discrepancies in the approach of entities to the measurement of these instruments, that is whether to measure them at
amortised cost or at fair value (SPPI test). The amendment to IFRS 9 will not have an impact on the consolidated financial
statements of the Group, since the Group does not have any such instruments.
- principles of derecognition of liabilities, when they are settled in cash using an electronic payment system. In 2021, the IFRS
Interpretations Committee confirmed that in principle, an entity should derecognise financial liabilities and financial assets
as at the date of their settlement. This approach and current principles on derecognition of financial assets and liabilities
described in IFRS 9 remain in force. However, due to problems with adjustment to this requirement in terms of
derecognition of financial liabilities regulated by electronic payment systems, the Board decided to permit an entity to
apply a voluntary exception regarding the cancellation of financial liabilities, which enables the possibility to deem a
financial liability to be discharged earlier, that is before the settlement date if the entity has initiated a payment instruction
and the following conditions have been met:
(a) the entity has no practical ability to withdraw, stop or cancel the payment instruction,
(b) the entity has no practical ability to access the cash to be used for settlement as a result of the payment instruction,
and
(c) the settlement risk associated with the electronic payment system is insignificant (this refers to the risk that a
transaction will not be successfully settled).
If this voluntary exception is applied, the adopted solutions should be applied consequently to all settlements made using
the same electronic payment system. The exception introduced by the Board does not apply to the settlement of liabilities
using electronic payment systems. Therefore, liabilities should be removed from the statement of financial position only
when the cash is received in the Group entity's bank account.
The aforementioned change will not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group, because the
Group derecognises a financial liability which is settled in cash using an electronic payment system as at the date of
settlement.
- introduction to IFRS 7 paragraph 11A of changes in information disclosure requirements on equity instruments designated
at fair value through other comprehensive income, by limiting the disclosure of fair value of each such investment at the
end of the reporting period and disclosing its total value while simultaneously introducing a requirement to disclose the
change in fair value during the reporting period. The Group holds such instruments and will appropriately adjust the scope
of disclosure to the amended requirements.
Annual improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards volume 11, effective on 1 January 2026. As part of the minor
amendments, mainly of a clarificatory nature, changes were introduced to:
- IFRS 1 First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, on retrospective designation of currently applied
hedge accounting. This change will not have an impact on the Group.
- IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, in paragraph B38 on gain or loss on derecognition, an erroneous reference was
corrected and three amendments were introduced to IFRS 7 Implementation Guidance, i.e. in the introduction it was
explained that the implementation guidance does not illustrate all the aspects of the application of IFRS 7; in the case of
disclosure regarding credit risk, the editing of paragraph IG20B was corrected with no impact on the current wording and
PART 1 General information
PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group
Consolidated financial statements for 2025 Translation from the original Polish version
27
under the amendment to paragraph IG14 it was indicated that if, at the moment of initial recognition of an acquired asset
for which an active market does not exist, there is a difference between its fair value calculated using the measurement
techniques and the transaction price, this difference should be settled in subsequent periods in accordance with IFRS 9
guidelines and the appropriate accounting policy, which should be subsequently disclosed in the financial statements. The
amendments to IFRS 7 will not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.
- IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, introducing the following amendments: in the case of derecognition of lease liabilities, in
paragraph 2.1b(ii) a reference was added to paragraph 3.3.3 IFRS 9 and paragraph 5.1.3 on measurement, at the initial
recognition, of trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component, and the wording that they should
be recognised at transaction price as defined in IFRS 15 was replaced by wording that they should be recognised at the
amount determined by applying IFRS 15. The amendments to IFRS 9 will not have a significant impact on the consolidated
financial statements of the Group.
- IFRS 10 Consolidated financial statements, in paragraph B74, correcting wording that in certain situations could hinder the
correct application of paragraph B73 on the basis of which, an entity being an investor shall consider the nature of its
relationship with other parties and whether those other parties are acting on the investor’s behalf, i.e. they are “de facto
agents”. The amendments to IFRS 10 will not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements of the
Group.
- IAS 7 Statement of cash flows, in paragraph 37, on accounting for an investment in a subsidiary, an associate or a joint venture,
the word “method” after “cost” was deleted, since the phrase “at cost method” is no longer used in IFRS accounting
standards, and instead of the word “method” was added after the word “equity”, and therefore there are now two phrases
used: “the equity method” and “at cost”. The amendment to IAS 7 will not have an impact on the consolidated financial
statements of the Group.
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 Contracts referencing nature-dependent electricity, effective on
1 January 2026. The amendments concern contracts, which expose the entity (purchaser of electricity) to variability in the
underlying amount of electricity because the electricity is generated from a source dependent on uncontrollable natural
conditions (such as wind, sun). The introduced changes concern:
- explanation of the application of requirements concerning the purchase of electricity “for own use”, on the basis of which it
is possible to exempt contracts for the purchase of renewable electricity from the scope of IFRS 9,
- permission to apply hedge accounting if contracts referencing nature-dependent electricity are used as hedging
instruments, and
- an addition to IFRS 7 of new requirements on disclosure of information to enable investors to understand the impact of
these contracts on the financial results and cash flows of an entity.
The amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 will not have a significant impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements. As
at the date of preparation of these consolidated financial statements, the Group has one nature-dependent PPA agreement
for the purchase of electricity. This agreement does not provide for the possibility of resale by the Group of the electricity
produced in this source, and the Group uses all the energy purchased from this source for its own needs as a standard.
The new standard 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. IFRS 18 still retains a significant amount of requirements transferred from IAS 1 and
simultaneously introduces significant changes to the structure of the statement of profit or loss, disclosure of information on
management-defined performance measures and rearrangement of selected nomenclature, by defining the so-called
primary statements, in which financial data is presented and accompanying notes disclosing supplementary information to
primary statements.
In the case of the statement of profit or loss, entities will be obliged to classify their income and expenses recognised in this
statement to one of the following five categories: operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations.
While IFRS 18 indicates which revenues and costs should be presented in the categories of investing, financing, income taxes
and discontinued operations, the operating category is a residual category, in which, first of all, income and expenses arising
from an entity’s main business activities and the income and expenses which could not be presented within other categories.
Moreover, this standard introduces three obligatory subtotals in the statement of profit or loss: operating profit or loss, profit
or loss before financing and income taxes and profit or loss.
The next significant area of changes to IFRS 18 concerns management-defined performance measures. Currently, many
entities use individualised performance measures defined by the management, which are not required by the IFRS accounting
standards. IFRS 18 requires the disclosure of information on performance measures in a separate note and introduces new
regulations on management-defined performance measures and defines them as appropriately aggregated items of income
and expenses which meet all of the following criteria:

Consolidated financial statements for 2025 Translation from the original Polish version

(i) they are used in public communications outside the financial statements, such as comments of the management board,
press releases and investor presentations,
(ii) they are used to communicate to investors the management’s view of an aspect of the financial performance of the
entity as a whole,
(iii) they are not listed in IFRS 18 (e.g. as subtotals) or specifically required by other IFRSs.
The introduction of IFRS 18 will have an impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements, in particular on the structure
of the statement of profit or loss, i.e. on the breakdown of income and expenses into categories and on the presentation of
certain subtotals (i.e. a new subtotal will appear: operating profit or loss”). In the case of the introduced categories, some
items which are currently presented in other operating costs/income will be transferred to the investing category, which
currently does not exist in the statement of profit or loss. These will be mainly income and costs generated by items such as
loans granted, investment properties, deposited cash and interest in a joint venture. The category of financing, in turn, will
distinguish between financial revenues and costs divided into those arising from transactions constituting solely the
acquisition of financing and those arising from transactions that do not constitute solely the acquisition of financing,
including, for example, interest costs on specific benefit programs.
Moreover, in the Group’s preliminary opinion, the performance measure currently disclosed by the Group and not defined
by IFRSs, meaning adjusted EBITDA, will meet the criteria of a management-defined performance measure pursuant to IFRS
18.
As a result of the publication of IFRS 18, other standards will also change significantly, among others: IAS 7, IAS 8.
Pursuant to the amended IAS 7, in the statement of cash flows in which operating cash flows are prepared using the indirect
method, the starting point for determining operating cash flows will be operating profit or loss instead of the current profit
before income tax. It will have an impact on the categories of items recognised in cash flow from operating activities which
adjust the output item. The amended IAS 7 will also remove the presentation alternatives for interest and dividend cash flows,
which under the amended IAS 7 may be presented only in investing or financing categories, respectively. Moreover, IAS 7
indicates that interest paid that has been capitalised at the initial value of fixed assets will be presented by entities in cash
flows from financing activities. Currently, the Group presents this interest under cash flows from investing activities.
The scope of IAS 8 will be broadened by elements transferred from IAS 1 on the general features of financial statements (that
is: fair presentation, going concern, accrual basis of accounting (paragraphs 17-28 of IAS 1), and disclosure of accounting
principles (policies), and subjective judgments and sources of estimation uncertainty (paragraphs 117, 117A-117E, 122-133 of
IAS 1). As a result of broadening the scope of IAS 8, its name was changed to Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements. The
amendment to IAS 8 will not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group.
In the Group’s opinion, the application of IFRS 18 will have a significant impact on the financial statements of the Group, in
particular on the structure of the statement of profit or loss and on the statement of cash flows presented in the consolidated
financial statements of the Group.
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. The European Commission has decided not to

Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 on the sale or contribution of assets between an Investor and its associate or joint
venture. The date of entry into force was postponed indefinitely by IASB.
The new standard IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without public accountability: disclosures and amendments to IFRS 19,
effective on or after 1 January 2027. IFRS 19 introduces requirements on limited disclosure of information in financial
statements prepared pursuant to IFRSs and is dedicated to related parties which do not have public accountability and whose
parent entity (intermediate or ultimate) publish consolidated financial statements pursuant to IFRSs (these are the so-called
qualifying subsidiaries). The purpose of limiting disclosures in relation to the full disclosures required by individual
International Financial Reporting Standards and their Interpretations is to simplify the reporting system and related
procedures, which in turn should ultimately translate into a reduction in the costs of preparing financial statements in
accordance with IFRS, as well as contribute to the disclosure of information more relevant to the scope of a given qualifying
related entity activities, while maintaining a sufficient level of usefulness of the reports for their users. At the same time,
entities applying IFRS 19 should continue to comply fully with the other requirements of individual IFRSs, in particular with
regard to recognition, classification, measurement and presentation. Under IFRS 19, entities with public accountability are
defined as entities whose debt or equity financial instruments have been admitted to public trading on domestic and
international stock exchanges, as well as on the OTC market and on local and regional markets. In 2025, amendments were
made to IFRS 19 to limit disclosure requirements in relation to standards and amendments issued between February 2021
and May 2024. The application of IFRS 19 by qualifying related entities will be voluntary and will not affect the Group's
consolidated financial statements because the Group does not meet the criterion of an entity without public accountability.

Impact of the international tax system reform: pillar 2 of the BEPS 2.0 project
The act of 6 November 2024 on top-up taxation of individual companies of international and Polish groups (hereafter: the Act)
implemented rules 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 Union to the Polish legal system. Adoption of the Act is the
realisation of guidelines of the so-called pillar 2 of the BEPS 2.0 project, which introduces a general framework for a global minimum
tax approved under the work of the OECD forum.
The Polish legal acts entered into force on 1 January 2025 with the possibility of their voluntary application from 1 January 2024 (in
the case of the global top-up tax and the Polish top-up tax), but KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. did not exercise the voluntary application
option as of 1 January 2024.
The current wording of the Act is based on OECD Model Rules of 2021 and the EU Directive of 2022 and incorporates provisions of
OECD Administrative Guidance on the application of regulations on the BEPS 2.0 reform, which were published in 2023. Pursuant
to the Act, the Company KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. meets the criteria of a so-called MNE (multinational enterprise) and therefore is
obliged to report a specific level of the tax rate of its subsidiaries at the level of individual jurisdictions.
The Group continuously monitors progress of the legislative work aimed at implementation of the rules of the reform of pillar 2 of
the BEPS 2.0 project in all jurisdictions in which subsidiaries of the Group operate, and analyses their potential impact on the Parent
Entity and the Group. As at the date of publication of these consolidated financial statements of the Group, regulations on the
global and domestic top-up tax were implemented in the following jurisdictions in which the Group operates: Canada, Luxembourg,
the United Kingdom, Germany and Poland.
While the rules of the Directive should have been in force from 2024, the OECD Framework (including OECD guidelines published
in January 2026) include a transitional period, which postpones the obligations in this regard by 4 subsequent years. Based on a
detailed technical analysis of the assumptions stipulated in transitional rules, it is assessed that the Group will be able to use them
in the majority of jurisdictions in which it operates. Moreover, according to the current estimates, the probability of paying the top-
up tax in any of the jurisdictions is judged by the Group to be low.
In accordance with the requirements of IAS 12 paragraph 88A, the Group does not recognise deferred tax assets and liabilities
related to income taxes of pillar 2 and does not disclose information about these assets and liabilities. Based on the results of the
conducted analyses, these consolidated financial statements do not contain any amounts arising from the reform of the
international tax system pillar 2.
For 2025, the Group did not incur any liability due to the top-up tax and therefore the Group is not obliged to pay it. However, the
Group will be required to pay the top-up tax for the years 2026 and 2027 if the conditions of maintaining the exemption under the
temporary safe harbours for this period are not met, and if at the level of any of the jurisdictions in which the subsidiaries of the
Group are currently present, their effective tax rate (calculated in accordance with the BEPS (Base erosion and profit shifting) rules)
is below 15%. In the years following 2027, the Group will be obliged to pay the top-up tax if, in any of the jurisdictions in which the
Group is present, the effective tax rate (calculated in accordance with the BEPS rules) is below 15%. Since the Group's entities are
generally located in high-tax jurisdictions, according to the Group's current knowledge and judgment, the probability of paying the
top-up tax in the future is judged as low.

Not applicable (it is a single operating and reporting segment)
Other segments
This item includes other Group

segment).
Aggregation was carried out as a result of not meeting the
criteria necessitating the identification of a separate additional
reporting segment.
*The sale of the assets of the Sudbury Basin and liabilities associated with them took place on 28 February 2025 (Note 9.9).
The following companies were not included in any of the aforementioned segments:
Future 1 Sp. z o.o., which acts as a holding company with respect to the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group,
Future 3 Sp. z o.o., Future 4 Sp. z o.o., Future 5 Sp. z o.o., which operate in the structure related to the establishment of a Tax
Group.
These companies do not conduct operating activities which could impact the results achieved by individual segments, and as a
result their inclusion could distort the data presented in this part of the consolidated financial statements due to significant
settlements with other Group companies.
Each of the segments KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. and Sierra Gorda S.C.M. have their own Management
Board, which reports the results of their business activities to the Management Board of the Parent Entity.
The segment KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. is composed only of the Parent Entity, and the segment Sierra Gorda S.C.M. is composed
only of the joint venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M. Other companies of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group are presented below by

Location of mining assets of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group
* the McCreedy West mine was disposed of on 28 February 2025 (transaction conclusion)
The Parent Entity and the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group (a subgroup) have a fundamental impact on the assets
and the generation of revenues in the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group. The activities of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
are concentrated on the mining and metallurgical industries in Poland, while those of the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group are
concentrated on the mining industry in the countries of North and South America. The profile of activities of the majority of the
remaining subsidiaries of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group differs from the main profile of the Parent Entity’s activities.
The Parent Entity’s Management Board monitors the operating results of individual segments in order to make decisions on
allocating the Group’s resources and to assess the financial results achieved.
Financial data prepared for management reporting purposes is based on the same accounting policies as those applied when
preparing the consolidated financial statements of the Group, while the financial data of individual reporting segments constitutes
the amounts presented in appropriate financial statements prior to consolidation adjustments at the level of the KGHM Polska
Miedź S.A. Group, i.e.:
The segment KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. comprises data from the separate financial statements of the Parent Entity prepared
in accordance with IFRSs. In the separate financial statements, investments in subsidiaries (including indirect interest in KGHM
INTERNATIONAL LTD.) are measured at cost, including impairment losses,
The segment KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. comprises consolidated data of the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group prepared
in accordance with IFRSs. The involvement in Sierra Gorda S.C.M. is accounted for using the equity method,
The segment Sierra Gorda S.C.M. comprises the 55% share of assets, liabilities, revenues and costs of this venture presented
in the financial statements of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. prepared in accordance with IFRSs,
Other segments comprises aggregated data of individual subsidiaries after excluding transactions and balances between
them.
The Management Board of the Parent Entity assesses a segment’s performance based on adjusted EBITDA and the profit or loss
for the period.
The Group defines adjusted EBITDA as profit/loss for the period pursuant to IFRS, excluding taxes (current and deferred income
tax as well as the mining tax), finance income and costs, other operating income and costs, profit or loss on involvement in joint
ventures, depreciation/amortisation recognised in expenses by nature, recognition/reversal of impairment losses on property,
plant and equipment and intangible assets included in the cost of sales, selling costs and administrative expenses.
Since adjusted EBITDA is not a measure defined by IFRS, it is not a standardised measure and therefore its method of calculation
may vary between entities, and consequently the presentation and calculation of adjusted EBITDA applied by the Group may not
be comparable to EBITDA measures applied by other market entities.
Revenues from transactions with external entities and inter-segment transactions are carried out at arm’s length. Eliminations of
mutual settlements, revenues and costs between segments were presented below in the item “Consolidation adjustments”.
Unallocated liabilities concern companies which have not been classified into any segment. Liabilities which have not been allocated
to the segments comprise trade liabilities and deferred tax liabilities.

* 55% of the Group’s share in Sierra Gorda S.C.M.’s financial and production data from the financial statements of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. reviewed for management purposes. The financial data of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. presented in Note 6.1 differ from the above data due to the
Group’s more conservative approach to the assumptions used for impairment testing of Sierra Gorda S.C.M.’s assets in previous years.
** Unit cash cost of payable copper production, reflecting ore mining and processing costs, transport costs, the minerals extraction tax, administrative expenses during the mining phase and smelter treatment and refining charges (TC/RC) less by-product value. C1 cost is in
regard to payable copper in own concentrate in the case of the segment KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and payable copper in end products of individual mines of the segment KGHM International Ltd. and the segment Sierra Gorda S.C.M. In the case of the segment KGHM Polska
Miedź S.A. the cost was converted from PLN to USD using the average exchange rate (arithmetical average of daily quotations per the NBP’s tables).
*** Adjusted EBITDA to revenues from contracts with customers. For the purposes of calculating the Group’s EBITDA margin (25%), the consolidated revenues from contracts with customers were increased by revenues from contracts with customers of the segment
Sierra Gorda S.C.M. [10 276 / (36 366 + 4 619) * 100]

Note 2.3 Revenues from contracts with customers of the Group breakdown by products
Accounting policies
Revenues arising from ordinary operating activities of the Group, 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 Group 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 mine construction services) and other products
(including electricity), merchandise (including steel, petroleum and its derivatives) and materials (including waste from
metallurgical furnaces generated as a result of production processes, e.g. scrap of Pb-Zn concentrate).
Performance obligations and the moment when the performance obligation is satisfied
The Group recognises revenue from contracts with customers when the Group 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.
Depending on the moment when the performance obligation is satisfied, the recognition of revenues by the Group may take
place at a specific moment (if the performance is carried out at a specific moment) or the revenue may be recognised over time
(if the performance is carried out over time).
The Group 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 Group determines, based on contractual terms, whether the
obligation will be satisfied 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 Group satisfies its performance obligation and at the same specific moment recognises revenues.
The performance obligation is satisfied by the Group in the same manner (at a specific moment) as in the case of other Group
products, such as: lead, salt, steel, petroleum, blasting materials, mining machinery, fuel additives and other products. The
method of determining the moment when the performance obligation is satisfied at a specific point in time is described below
in Important estimates, assumptions and judgments.
In trade contracts in which the performance obligation is satisfied at a specified time, the Group 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 silver. 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) by the Group or after the Group satisfies its performance obligation. If the Group receives payment from
the customer before it satisfies its performance obligation, it recognises it as contractual payables. However, in the case of
deferred payments terms, the Group 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.
Since in the majority of sales transactions, following the shipment of the promised product or good and transferring control over
it, the Group has an unconditional right to consideration from the customer, and the only condition of receiving it is time lapse,
the Group recognises the consideration from contracts with customers as receivables and therefore the Group does not
recognise contractual assets.
In the case of performance is carried out over time, the Group recognises revenues from sales over time if one of the following
criteria is met:
the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group’s performance to the extent that
it performs its obligations, or
the Group satisfies a performance obligation and creates or enhances an asset (for example, work in progress) that the
customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced, or
the Group satisfies a performance obligation and creates an asset without an alternative use to the Group and the Group
has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
In particular, the Group recognises revenues over time from services provided under agreements for the construction of mines
and other geological works, spa, sanatorium and treatment services, and from the sale of electricity, including electricity
distribution services.
If the Group recognises revenues on the basis of assessment pursuant to the adopted method of measurement the degree of
advancement, prior to the issue of the invoice, it recognises due consideration as a contractual asset and transfers it to
receivables at the moment the right to consideration becomes unconditional.
The method of determining the moment when the performance obligation is satisfied for a performance carried out over time
is described below in Important estimates, assumptions and judgments.
Determining of the transaction price
Revenues from contracts with customers are recognised in the amount of the transaction price, consisting of the amount of the
consideration which in accordance with the Group’s expectations it will receive in return for the transfer of promised goods
or services to the customer.
PART 2 Information on segments and revenues

KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group

37
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 the realised contracts of sales to customers, the Group identified a significant financing component in the contract with Franco
Nevada. The Group presents the results of financing (interest costs) separately from revenues from contracts with customers in
the statement of comprehensive income. In the Franco Nevada contract, there was also an element of variable consideration.
Due to the sale of assets and liabilities of the Sudbury Basin in Canada in February 2025, the contract with Franco Nevada is no
longer being executed by the Group.
In the case of copper and silver products sales transactions, 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. Changes to the booked 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.
The Group adjusts sales revenues by the result on the settlement of derivatives hedging future cash flows, in the part effectively
hedging at the moment when the hedged position affects the profit or loss.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
The Group 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 facility (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
Group is also obliged to organise the shipment. In these cases, the Group acts as a principal, as it has control over the service
before its completion and transfer to the customer. At the same time, the Group allocates a part of the transaction price to the
transport service and recognises these revenues over time.
The Group recognises revenues over time due to realised mine construction services and other geological work. The Group meets
liabilities in time, because the customer simultaneously receives and makes use of economic benefits arising from the performed
service as it is performed, or because components are made which do not have an alternative application for the Group and
simultaneously the Group has an enforceable right to payment. To measure the degree of advancement of performance
obligation, the Group applies a method based on expenses incurred while meeting the performance obligation on the basis of
incurred costs and for other contracts, a method based on results, where the unit cost set in advance is applied to measure the
unit of production (e.g. to measure meters of drilled tunnelling).
Determination of the transaction price allocated to other performance obligations
If the Group has other performance obligations at the end of the reporting period, it is required to disclose the transaction price
allocated to these performance obligations (IFRS 15.120-122). The Group applies a practical expedient and does not disclose
performance obligations which are a part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less. Moreover, the
Group has long-term contracts for supply of commodities, with prices based mainly on a variable consideration, that is on future
stock market prices of commodities. As the result, the Group does not include this variable consideration in the estimation of the
transaction price, which otherwise would be recognised as performance obligations, which were not satisfied at the end of the
reporting period and disclosed pursuant to the requirements of IFRS 15.120.
Moreover, the Group (via the company DMC) advances long-term contracts for mine construction, in which it uses a method
based on expenditures to recognise revenues, which meets the criteria for recognising revenues in the amount, that the Group
has a right to invoice. As at 31 December 2025, the total transaction price allocated to performance obligations, which remained
unsatisfied at the end of the reporting period, amounted to PLN 1 008 million, of which the amount of PLN 779 million will be
realised in 2026, the amount of PLN 210 million will be realised in 2027 and the amount of PLN 19 million will be realised in or
after 2028 (in the comparable period the total transaction price allocated to performance obligations, which remained unsatisfied
at the end of the reporting period, amounted to PLN 1 164 million, of which the amount of PLN 682 million was realised in 2025,
the amount of PLN 325 million will be realised in 2026 and the amount of PLN 156 million will be realised in or after 2027). These
contracts do not have an element of variable consideration.
Balances of trade payables due to contracts with customers as at 1 January 2025, 1 January 2024 as well as at 31 December 2025
were immaterial. Therefore, the recognised adjustment to revenues in 2025 and 2024 due to the final determination of the sale
price was insignificant.

Onerous contracts
Taking into account the greater volatility of the macroeconomic environment, which has a significant impact on the Parent Entity’s
financial results and requirements of IAS 37 as regards identification of onerous contracts, the Parent Entity 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 Parent Entity 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.
Some of the Parent Entity’s products are by-products of the copper production process (among others: sulphuric acid, copper
sulphate, nickel sulphate and lead), which, after further processing, may be sold to external clients. When making a decision to
process and sell them, the Parent Entity is not only guided by the potential future economic benefits of such contracts, but also
pays attention to other costs avoided in this way, which would have to be incurred in order to dispose of them. Despite the fact
that the currently observed and expected sales prices of some of these products (lead, sulphate) do not allow for achieving positive
margins on these products, the result on this activity is more favourable compared to the available alternative solutions (e.g. their
disposal). Therefore, the Parent Entity 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 its integral part.
On the basis of conducted analyses, the Parent Entity did not identify the occurrence of onerous contracts under IAS 37 as at
31 December 2025.

The Group derives its main revenue streams from the sale of metals such as copper, silver and gold. In the case of basic metals and other products such as: lead, salt, steel, petroleum, blasting
materials, mining machinery, fuel additives and others, the Group satisfies its performance obligations at a specific moment, which is identical to the moment of transferring control over the promised
goods to the customer.
In turn, over time, the Group recognises revenues from the sale of energy (which is both a product of the Group and a commodity) and its distribution, mine construction services, geological works,
spa, sanatorium and treatment services.
Details regarding the determination of the moment when the performance obligation is satisfied from the contracts concluded by the Group are presented in note 2.3 in the description of the
Accounting Policies and Important estimates, assumptions and judgments.

PART 3 Impairment of assets
Note 3.1 Impairment losses on assets as at 31 December 2025
Assessment of the risk of impairment of production assets of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. in the context of the market
capitalisation of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
The Management Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. assessed the existence of indications of the possibility of impairment of
assets, pursuant to the requirements of International Accounting Standard 36 Impairment of assets. The analysis was carried
out taking into account both external factors resulting from the economic and market environments, as well as internal factors
relating to the unique nature of the entity's operations, the efficiency of the use of assets and changes in their expected utility.
In 2025, the share price of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. was characterised by high dynamics, supported, among others, by rising
prices of metals, especially copper and silver. The average price of the Company's shares in 2025 increased by 29.2% compared
to the share price at the end of 2024 and as at 31 December 2025 amounted to PLN 280.80 (the average share price in 2025 was
PLN 148.57). In the same period, the average WIG20 index increased by 26.8%, and the average WIG index increased by 28.2%.
As a result, the Company's market capitalisation increased from PLN 23 000 million to PLN 56 160 million, which means that as
at 31 December 2025 it remained at the level of 181% of the value of the Company's net assets. However, it should be noted
that the average ratio of market capitalisation to book value of net assets throughout 2025 was 93%.
From the point of view of the Company's operations, the key factor influencing the level of market capitalisation is the price of
copper. In 2025, the copper price maintained its upward trend, peaking in December 2025 due to the weakening of the US dollar,
global trade tensions and supply shortages in the copper market. The average copper price in 2025 was 9 945 USD/t, which is
higher than the prices recorded in 2024 (average of 9 147 USD/t).
In the case of the Polish assets, the price of metals in PLN is of significant importance, which is also affected by the USD/PLN
exchange rate. Fluctuations in copper prices are usually largely compensated by changes in the USD/PLN exchange rate. The
average exchange rate of the US dollar against the PLN in 2025 was PLN 3.76, which is lower than the exchange rate observed
in 2024 (average of PLN 3.98).
Finally, the average copper price in PLN in 2025 was 37 303 PLN/t, which was higher by 2.5% compared to the prices recorded
in 2024 (average of 36 401 PLN/t).
More significant fluctuations could be observed on the precious metals market. The price of gold, supported by stable central
bank purchases, a weak US dollar, and a climate of macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, rose almost continuously
throughout the year, reaching USD 4 308 per ounce at the end of December 2025 (compared to USD 2 611 per ounce at the end
of 2024). Along with gold, the price of silver also rose from USD 29 per ounce at the end of 2024 to USD 72 per ounce at the end
of December 2025.
After the balance sheet date, prices of metals continued their dynamic upward trend, reaching maximums on 29 January 2026
at 13 844 USD/t for copper, USD 5 502 per ounce of gold and USD 118 per ounce of silver alongside further weakening of the
US dollar. This trend was broken in the following days when there were sharp declines in metals prices , which shows significant
uncertainty about the development of prices in the future.
Favourable macroeconomic data in 2025 contributed to a decrease in market interest rates, to around 4.04 for WIBOR 1M, 3.99
for WIBOR 3M and 3.87 for WIBOR 6M at the end of December 2025, which has a positive impact on the profitability of the
business. The yield on 10-year bonds was 1.15 percentage points higher than the NBP reference rate.
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. maintains full operational capacity and consistently advances planned production, sales and investment
budget targets. The financial results achieved by the Company exceed the budget targets, which is also a result of conducted
optimisation initiatives and cost discipline applied in response to macroeconomic conditions.
The Company continued actions aimed at making the subsequent parts of the copper deposit available and at construction of
the mining infrastructure. Current, long-term production plans are up to 2055 and in the current period no indications were
identified that could negatively impact the future availability of deposits. KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. continues exploration work
on the basis of its concessions and concession proceedings aimed at ensuring the resource base appropriate for operating
activities and prolonging mine life.
In the context of risks and hazards associated with climate, in the current period, no material impact on the activities of KGHM
Polska Miedź S.A. was identified. Detailed information is presented in Note 1.3.3 Monitored areas risks and hazards associated
with the climate.
On 1 January 2026, the Act of 21 November 2025 amending the act on the minerals extraction tax and certain other acts,
introducing a temporary reduction of the coefficient in the tax calculation formula for copper and silver (2026-2028) and a
mechanism for deducting part of capital expenditures from tax (from 2029), entered into force.
In accordance with the aforementioned Act, the burden of reducing the amount of the copper tax will rest, to a large extent, on
the investment relief mechanism. For this reason, it will de facto serve as a source of financing capital expenditures and will not
have to directly translate into a significant change in free cash flows.
PART 3 Impairment of assets
PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group
Consolidated financial statements for 2025 Translation from the original Polish version
45
The Company will be able to deduct a maximum of 40% of the value of eligible expenditures (no more than 30% of the input
tax), which will require the involvement of significant capital in order to fully use the reduction on the minerals extraction tax.
Moreover, in the case of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., a significant group of investments eligible for tax deduction are development
investments, which by definition are not included in the impairment test in the model of value in use. As a result, the
amendments to the act on the minerals extraction tax do not constitute an indication to change the recoverable amount of the
Company's assets.
The Management Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. assessed the assumptions adopted as at 31 December 2023 for impairment
testing of the Polish production assets (mining and metallurgical assets), including mainly macroeconomic assumptions,
medium- and long-term production plans and the level of operating costs as well as planned capital expenditures. No indications
were identified suggesting the necessity of revision of previously-adopted key assumptions.
Taking into account the significant uncertainty and dynamic changes in the environment, which make it difficult to draw
conclusions about long-term trends, in the opinion of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. , there were no indications of the risk of
impairment of the Polish production assets, nor of indications of the possibility of reversing the impairment losses already made.
As a result, no impairment tests were carried out for these assets as at 31 December 2025.
Due to the continuing uncertainty and significant volatility of key macroeconomic parameters, in particular metal prices and
exchange rates, KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. will continue to monitor global economic conditions on an ongoing basis in terms of
stabilisation or non-stabilisation of the indicated trends. If the persistence of the observed changes is confirmed, the Company
will assess their impact on the recoverable amount of the assets, pursuant to the principles described in IAS 36.
Impairment testing of the investment in Sierra Gorda S.C.M. the Sierra Gorda S.C.M. segment
As at 31 December 2025, due to the occurrence of indications of the possibility of a change in the recoverable amount of the
investment in Sierra Gorda S.C.M., which is part of the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group, an impairment test of shares in the
joint venture was performed. For the purposes of estimating the recoverable amount, the Sierra Gorda S.C.M. joint venture has
been identified as a cash-generating unit (CGU).
The key indication for conducting the test on shares in Sierra Gorda S.C.M. was to perform an impairment testing of assets at
the level of Sierra Gorda S.C.M.
The carrying amount of the shares in the joint venture determined using the equity method as at 31 December 2025 was
USD 434 million (PLN 1 562 million at the average exchange rate as at 31 December 2025 announced by the National Bank of
Poland). For the purposes of determining the recoverable amount of the investment in Sierra Gorda S.C.M., the test performed
measured its net assets at fair value (less estimated cost of sales) using the income approach, i.e. the discounted cash flow
method.
The fair value has been classified to level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Basic macroeconomic assumptions adopted in the impairment test as at 31 December 2025 commodity prices
The Company adopted price paths on the basis of internal macroeconomic assumptions developed based on available long-term
forecasts from financial and analytical institutions. A detailed forecast was prepared for the period 2026-2030, while for the
period 2031-2035 a technical adjustment of prices was applied between the last year of the detailed forecast and 2036, for which
a long-term metal price forecast was assumed at the following level:
for copper 9 250 USD/t (4.20 USD/lb),
for gold 2 500 USD/oz.
In the detailed forecast period for the period 2026-2030 the following levels of metal prices were assumed:
for copper from 10 000 USD/t to 10 472 USD/t,
for gold from 2 800 USD/oz to 3 800 USD/oz.

As a result of the test, the recoverable amount of the Group's share in the joint venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M. was determined to be
USD 504 million (PLN 1 814 million at the average exchange rate as at 31 December 2025 announced by the National Bank of
Poland), which was higher than its carrying amount as at 31 December 2025 determined using the equity method, which provided
the basis for reversing the impairment loss on shares in the joint venture in the amount of USD 70 million, recognised in previous
years (PLN 252 million at the average exchange rate as at 31 December 2025 announced by the National Bank of Poland).

full reversal of the impairment loss on the shares in the joint venture recognised in previous years up to a maximum of
USD 116 million.
Impairment testing of property, plant and equipment of the company PMT Linie Kolejowe Sp. z o.o. Segment Other
segments
As at 31 December 2025, due to the occurrence of indications of a possible change in the recoverable amount of property, plant
and equipment of the company PMT Linie Kolejowe Sp. z o.o, impairment testing of these assets was performed. The key
indication to perform the impairment test was the significant decrease in forecasted future economic results.
The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment of PMT Linie Kolejowe Sp. z o.o. as at 31 December 2025 amounted to
PLN 240 million. In order to estimate the recoverable amount, in the conducted test the value in use of property, plant and
equipment was measured using the income-based approach, i.e. the method of discounted cash flows.

Impairment testing of property, plant and equipment of the company CENTROZŁOM WROCŁAW S.A. – Segment Other
segments
As at 31 December 2025, as a result of the occurrence of indications of changes in the recoverable amount of property, plant
and equipment of the company Centrozłom Wrocław S.A., impairment testing of these assets was performed. The key indication
to perform testing was the company's continued negative financial results (net loss for 2024 at the level of PLN 25 million, for
2025 at the level of PLN 26 million, respectively).
To determine the recoverable amount of the company’s property, plant and equipment, the fair value measurement less costs
to sell was adopted.
The recoverable amount was determined at the level of fair value less costs to sell, on the basis of available valuation reports
and an expert’s opinion, taking into account the following assumptions:
1. buildings and land - the fair value was determined using valuation techniques consistent with the market approach
(comparative), based on transactions on the local market for similar properties, the costs to sell were assumed at the
level of 3%, and through an expert opinion by the technical services of the company on the basis of determined market
value of similar objects in individual locations,
2. machinery and equipment - the fair value was determined through an expert opinion by the technical services of the
company and on the basis of auction websites and the level of achieved prices. Verification was made on the basis of
active market.
The fair value was classified to the level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

IMPAIRMENT TESTING OF NON-CURRENT ASSETS OF UZDROWISKA KŁODZKIE S.A. – GRUPA PGU Segment Other
segments
Due to the occurrence of indications of the possibility of a change in the recoverable amount of property, plant and equipment
and intangible assets of Uzdrowiska Kłodzkie S.A. Grupa PGU, impairment testing of these assets was carried out. The key
indication for conducting the impairment test was the recognition of a loss for 2025 and a negative change in the forecasted
operating cash flows for one of the cash-generating unit The mineral water production plant (CGU). The amount of property,
plant and equipment and intangible assets of CGU as at 31 December 2025 was PLN 24 million. For the purposes of estimating
the recoverable amount in the test performed, the value in use of the CGU was measured using the income approach, i.e. the
discounted cash flow method.

the amount of PLN 24 million, of which PLN 21 million was recognised in the item "Cost of sale" and PLN 3 million under the item
"Other operating costs".
The recoverable amount of the CGU shows a sensitivity to changes in the operating margin.

EVALUATION OF IMPAIRMENT OF WATER RIGHTS
In the Group, water rights in Chile are annually subjected to impairment testing by comparing their carrying amount
to the recoverable amount, which is set at fair value decreased by costs to sell.
As at 31 December 2025, the Group assessed the factors impacting the recoverable amount of the rights and assessed that there
were no basis for recognising an impairment loss or reverse an impairment loss, as both the price of water and the estimated
amount of extractable water did not change as compared to the levels of these assumptions adopted for testing as at 31
December 2024. The carrying amount of water rights as at 31 December 2025 and as at 31 December 2024 was USD 22 million
(as at 31 December 2025: PLN 81 million, as at 31 December 2024: PLN 92 million).
The fair value of water rights is classified to the level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, in which fair value measurements are based on
significant observable input data, other than market prices.

Note 3.2 Impairment losses on assets as at 31 December 2024
Assessment of the risk of impairment of production assets of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. in the context of the market
capitalisation of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A.
In 2024, the share price of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. remained under pressure of continued uncertainty as to the development
of the global macroeconomic situation. As a consequence, the Company's share price in 2024 fell by 6.3% compared to the share
price at the end of 2023 and as at 30 December 2024 amounted to PLN 115 (the average share price in 2024 was PLN 133.58).
At the same time, the WIG 20 index fell by 6.4%, while the WIG index increased by 1.4%. As a result, the market capitalisation of
the Company fell from PLN 24 540 million to PLN 23 000 million, which means that as at 31 December 2024 it remained 23.3%
below the level of the Company’s net assets. However, it should be noted that the average ratio between the market
capitalisation and net assets throughout 2024 amounted to 91%.
As at 20 March 2025, the Company’s share price amounted to PLN 138.20, which is an increase by 20.2% as compared to the
price as at 30 December 2024 (the average share price in the period from the end of the financial year to 20 March 2025 amounts
to PLN 129.48).
The analysis of Polish assets showed that not all factors that influence the level of market capitalisation of KGHM Polska Miedź
S.A. are factors related to the conducted business activities.
From the point of view of the Company’s operations, the key factor influencing the level of market capitalisation is the copper
price. It continued to be in a sideways trend from the beginning of 2024 to the turn of the first and second quarter and did not
deviate significantly from the level of 8 500 USD/t. In April, the weakening of USD and accumulation of information on limitation
of expected supply and increase of metal deficit on the copper market sparked a new hope among investors as to the increase
in copper price, and in May its price rose to the average level of 10 129 USD/t. In the following months of 2024, the investors’
optimism did not last when confronted with arguments coming from the fundamentals of the copper market. Finally, the average
price of copper in 2024 amounted to 9 147 USD/t, which is a level higher than prices noted in 2023 (average of 8 478 USD/t).
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 are usually to a large extent offset by changes in the
USD/PLN exchange rate. The average USD/PLN exchange rate in 2024 amounted to PLN 3.98, which is at a lower level than the
exchange rate noted in 2023 (average of PLN 4.20).
Finally, the average price of copper in 2024 amounted to 36 403 PLN/t, and was 2% higher than the price noted in 2023 (average
of 35 632 PLN/t).
In the current period, there were no significant changes in the level of market interest rates. From the beginning of 2024 we may
observe a stabilisation in WIBOR 1M, WIBOR 3M and WIBOR 6M at around 5.85%. The yield of 10-year bonds stabilised around
the level of the NBP’s reference rate.
The Management Board of KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. assessed the adequacy of assumptions adopted as at 31 December 2023
for impairment testing of Polish production assets (mining and metallurgical assets), including mainly macroeconomic
assumptions, medium- and long-term production plans and the level of operating costs as well as planned capital expenditures.
No indications were identified suggesting the necessity of revision of previously adopted key assumptions.
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. maintains full operational capacity and consistently advances planned production, sales and investment
budget targets. The financial results achieved by the Company exceed the budget targets, which is also a result of conducted
optimisation initiatives and cost discipline applied in response to macroeconomic conditions.
The Company continued actions aimed at making the subsequent parts of the copper deposit available and at construction of
the mining infrastructure. Current, long-term production plans are up to 2055 and in the current period no indications were
identified that could negatively impact the future availability of deposits. KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. continues exploration work
on the basis of its concessions and concession proceedings aimed at ensuring the resource base appropriate for operating
activities and prolonging mine life.
In the context of risks and hazards associated with climate, in the current period, no material impact on the activities of KGHM
Polska Miedź S.A. was identified. Detailed information is presented in Note 1.3.3 Monitored areas risks and hazards associated
with the climate.
The Company is discussing changes, with the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of State Assets, to the formula for the so-
called copper tax. At the present stage of advancement of discussions, the potential scope and term of legislative changes are
not possible to set, likewise the assessment of the impact of legislative changes on the Company’s cash flows.
As a result of the assessment made, no connection was identified between the decrease in the share price of KGHM Polska
Miedź S.A. and the Company’s activities in Poland. Consequently, there were no indications identified suggesting the risk of
impairment of the Polish production assets nor of indications suggesting the possibility of reversing the impairment losses which
were already made, and therefore there was no impairment testing of these assets as at 31 December 2024.

Test for the impairment of assets of the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group - the Segment KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD.
As at 31 December 2024, as a result of the identification of indications of a possible change in the recoverable amount
of the pre-operational phase of the Victoria project within the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group, an impairment test of this
asset was performed. In order to estimate the recoverable amount, the Victoria project was identified as a Cash Generating Unit
(CGU).
The key indication that the recoverable amount may be lower than the carrying amount is the planned decrease in cash flows
caused by:
o changes to the technical assumptions in the model,
o update of the mine construction schedule,
o update of capital expenditures,
alongside an increase in the carrying amount of the project.
In order to estimate the recoverable amount of the Victoria project, in the conducted test the fair value (decreased by estimated
costs to sell) was calculated using an income-based approach, i.e. the method of discounted cash flows.
Basic macroeconomic assumptions adopted for impairment testing as at 31 December 2024 metal prices
Price paths were adopted on the basis of available long-term forecasts from financial and analytical institutions. A detailed
forecast is being prepared for the period 2025-2029, while for the period 2030-2034 a technical adjustment of prices was applied
between the last year of the detailed forecast and 2035, from which a long-term metal price forecast is used at the following
levels:
- for copper 8 800 USD/t (3.99 USD/lb);
- for nickel 8.5 USD/lb (18 739 USD/t).
In the detailed forecast period for the period 2025-2029 the following levels of metal prices were assumed:
for copper from 9 500 USD/t to 10 000 USD/t;
for nickel from 17 086 USD/t (7.75 USD/lb) to 18 739 USD/t (8.50 USD/lb).

As at 31 December 2024, due to the occurrence of indications of changes in the recoverable amount of property, plant and
equipment of the following companies: INVEST PV 7 Sp. z o.o., INVEST PV 40 Sp. z o.o., INVEST PV 58 Sp. z o.o. and INVEST PV 59
sp. z o.o. which are involved in the generation and sale of electricity from photovoltaic installations, impairment testing of these
assets was performed. In order to estimate the recoverable amount, assets of individual companies were identified as separate
cash generating units (CGUs).
The key indications that the recoverable amounts of individual CGUs may be lower than their carrying amounts were:
the continued unfavourable prices on the electricity market,
the decisions regarding non-market redistribution, i.e. orders issued by power system operators to limit electricity
generation to ensure the stability of the national power system.
In order to estimate the recoverable amount of individual CGUs, in the conducted test the value in use of their non-current
assets was calculated using an income-based approach, i.e. the method of discounted cash flows.

segments
As at 31 December 2024, as a result of the occurrence of indications of changes in the recoverable amount of property, plant
and equipment of the company Centrozłom Wrocław S.A., impairment testing of these assets was performed. The key indication
to perform impairment testing was an incurred loss for 2024 by the company in the amount of PLN 25 million.
To determine the recoverable amount of the company’s property, plant and equipment, in accordance with IAS 36, the fair value
measurement was adopted as a higher one of the two values (the fair value and the value in use).
The test was conducted using the fair value less costs to sell method, on the basis of available valuation reports and an expert’s
opinion, in order to determine the recoverable amount of non-current assets, taking into account the following assumptions:
1. buildings and land - the fair value was determined using valuation techniques consistent with the market approach
(comparative), based on transactions on the local market for similar properties, the selling costs were assumed at the
level of 3%, and through an expert opinion by the technical services of the company on the basis of determined market
value of similar objects in individual locations,
2. machinery and equipment - the fair value was determined through an expert opinion by the technical services of the
company and on the basis of auction websites and the level of achieved prices.
The fair value was classified to the level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Impairment testing of non-current assets of the company ZAGŁĘBIE LUBIN S.A. – Segment Other segments
As at 31 December 2024, due to the occurrence of indications of changes in the recoverable amount of non-current assets of
the company Zagłębie Lubin S.A., an impairment testing of these assets was performed.
The key indications of a change in the recoverable amount of the assets 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 assets 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).
Basic assumptions adopted for impairment testing
The key assumptions adopted for the measurement:
revenues generated by the company from sponsoring and revenues from the sale of tickets and passes,
in 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 the 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 5.63%.
As a result of the conducted testing, the recoverable amount of non-current assets was determined to be at the level of PLN 104
million, which is significantly higher than the carrying amount of these assets (PLN 53 million). Therefore, no impairment loss was
recognised.
The conducted sensitivity analysis indicates that the recoverable amount is moderately vulnerable to changes in key parameters
influencing the result of the measurement:

Impairment testing of property, plant and equipment of the company PeBeKa S.A. Segment Other
segments
As at 31 December 2024, an analysis was performed in terms of the existence of indications of the possibility of impairment of
PeBeKa S.A. assets. The following CGUs comprising the company's business activity were subjected to analysis:
1. Product 1 Horizontal works (mining, construction, underground drilling),
2. Product 2 Vertical works (shaft and assembly),
3. Product 3 Construction, engineering and tunnelling works,
4. Product 4 Surface drilling works,
5. Product 5 Other business activities (property maintenance, sale of materials).
As a result of the analysis, a decrease in profitability and a loss on the sale of Product 1 were identified as indications of possible
impairment of assets.
Taking the above into account, an impairment test was performed of buildings and perpetual usufruct rights to land excluding
investment properties the fair value was determined using valuation methods consistent with the market approach
(comparative), based on transactions on the local market of similar properties, the selling costs were assumed at the level of
2.5% of estimated market value of assets,
The fair value was classified to level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
As a result of the conducted tests, it was determined that the recoverable amount of non-current assets subject to measurement
is significantly higher than the carrying amount, and therefore no impairment loss was recognised.
EVALUATION OF IMPAIRMENT OF WATER RIGHTS
In the Group, water rights in Chile are annually subjected to impairment testing by comparing their carrying amount
to the recoverable amount, which is set at fair value decreased by costs to sell. The fair value of water rights is classified under
level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, in which fair value measurements are based on significant observable input data, other than
market prices.
For the year ended on 31 December 2024, the Group assessed the factors impacting the recoverable amount of the asset and
determined that there is no basis to recognise an impairment loss or reverse an impairment loss, since both the price as well as
the estimated amount of water available for extraction did not change as compared to the levels of these factors adopted for
testing as at 31 December 2023. The carrying amount of water rights amounted to PLN 92 million as at 31 December 2024 (as at
31 December 2023: PLN 88 million).

PART 5 Taxation
Note 5.1 Income tax in the consolidated statement of profit or loss
Accounting policies
Income tax recognised in profit or loss comprises current income tax and deferred income tax.
Current income tax is calculated in accordance with current tax laws.
Taking into account the tax optimisation within the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, the “PGK KGHM ITax Group was founded,
which functioned for the first time in the years 2016 - 2018.
On 17 October 2024, an agreement was signed to indefinitely extend the operations of PGK KGHM II founded in 2019, which is in
force from 1 January 2025.

In 2025, Group entities paid income tax in the amount of PLN 917 million (in 2024: PLN 1 027 million) to the appropriate tax offices.
These consolidated financial statements do not include any amounts of current income tax resulting from the reform of the
international tax system - pillar 2 of the BEPS project, since no obligation arose to pay this tax by the Group.

In Poland, tax bodies are empowered to audit tax declarations for a period of five years, although during this period companies
may offset tax assets with tax liabilities being the income of the State Treasury (including due to current income tax). In Canada, tax
declarations may be audited for a period of four years without the right to offset assets with liabilities due to current income tax.

Note 5.1.1 Deferred income tax
Accounting policies
Deferred income 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 assets are recognised if it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible 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 a given
entity by the same tax authority.
In accordance with the requirements of IAS 12 paragraph 88A, the Group has applied the exception as regards the nonrecognition
of deferred tax to the extent resulting from pillar 2 of the BEPS project and therefore, it does not recognise deferred tax assets
and liabilities related to BEPS income taxes and it does not disclose information on these assets and liabilities.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
The assessment of probability of realising deferred tax assets with future tax income is based on the budgets of the companies
of the Group. Companies of the Group recognised deferred tax assets in their accounting books to the extent that it is probable
that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilised.

As at 31 December 2025, the amount of deductible temporary differences from which the Group did not recognise deferred tax
assets amounted to PLN 2 168 million (USD 602 million), as at 31 December 2024 PLN 1 842 million (USD 450 million), because
there is low possibility that they will be reversed in the foreseeable future and that taxable income will be achieved against which
the deductible temporary differences can be utilised. The deductible temporary differences from which the deferred tax assets
were not recognised mainly relate to the provisions for decommissioning costs of mines and other technological facilities in the
Robinson and Carlota mines in the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group, as well as the difference in interest on loans granted by the
Parent Entity and the subsidiary Future 1 to companies of the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group for accounting and tax purposes.
As at 31 December 2025, at the level of the consolidated financial statements, there was no recognition of deferred tax liabilities
on taxable temporary differences in the amount of PLN 3 088 million (as at 31 December 2024: PLN 1 990 million) related to
investments in subsidiaries and shares in joint ventures, as the conditions stipulated in IAS 12.39 were met, i.e. the Parent Entity is
able to control the dates of reversal of these differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
The following tables present deferred income tax assets and liabilities before their compensation at the level of individual
companies of the Group.

Pursuant to the wording of the Act of 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 and silver 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.
On 1 January 2026, the Act of 21 November 2025 amending the act on the minerals extraction tax and certain other acts entered
into force, introducing a reduction in the coefficients in the tax rate calculation formulas for 2026-2028 and a mechanism for
deducting part of capital expenditures from the tax (from 2029). For details, see Note 3.1 of these consolidated financial statements.

Tax assets comprise current income tax assets and the settlement related to VAT.
Assets not representing financial assets are initially recognised at nominal value and are measured at the end
of the reporting period at the amount due.
Tax liabilities comprise the Group’s liabilities towards the tax office arising from the corporate income tax, including due to the
withholding tax, personal income tax and liabilities due to the minerals extraction tax and the excise tax.
Liabilities not representing financial liabilities are measured at the amount due.

PART 6 Involvement in joint ventures
Accounting policies
The item involvement in joint ventures comprises investments in joint ventures accounted for using the equity method and
loans granted to joint ventures.
The Group classifies as investments accounted for using the equity method interests in joint ventures which are joint contractual
arrangements, in which the parties sharing control have the right to the net assets of a given entity. Joint control occurs when
decisions on the relevant activities of joint ventures require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
Investments are initially recognised at cost. The Group’s share in the profit or loss of entities accounted for using the equity
method (assessed while taking into account the impact of fair value measurements at the investment’s acquisition date) from
the acquisition date is recognised in profit or loss, while its share in changes of accumulated other comprehensive income from
the acquisition date is recognised in the relevant item of accumulated comprehensive income.
Unrealised gains and losses on transactions between the investor and the joint venture are eliminated in an amount
proportional to the investor’s share in these profits/(losses), and correspond with the carrying amount of the Group’s share in
this unit. If, at the end of the reporting period, the Group’s share in the unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and
the joint venture exceeds the carrying amount of the investment in this unit, the Group’s share in these gains is eliminated to
the level of the carrying amount of the Group’s interest in this unit. Elimination of unrealised gains, proportionally to the Group’s
share, unsettled in the period in which the transaction occurred, is performed in subsequent reporting period at the moment
the carrying amount of the Group’s interest in this unit exceeds zero.
If there are any indications of a possibility of impairment, an investment is tested for impairment by calculating the recoverable
amount.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
Joint control
The Group classifies Sierra Gorda S.C.M. with its head office in Chile as a joint venture under IFRS 11, in which KGHM
INTERNATIONAL LTD.’s share equals 55%. Classification of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. as a joint venture, despite the 55% share of the
Group, was made based on analysis of the terms of the agreements between the parties and contractual stipulations which
indicated joint control. Pursuant to the terms of the agreements, all relevant activities of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. require the
unanimous consent of both owners. The Group and other owners have three members each in the appointed Owners Council.
The Owners Council makes strategic decisions and is responsible for overseeing their execution. Moreover, it approves the
appointment of senior management. In the reporting period, there were no changes to provisions that were the basis of
classifying the investment as a joint venture.
Adjustments made at the moment of initial recognition as part of the settlement of the cost
At the moment of initial recognition, the Group recognised the investment in the joint venture at cost representing the fair value
of the investment, i.e. USD 1 251 million, of which the Group’s share in the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities
of the joint venture amounted to USD 1 135 million. The difference between the cost of the investment and the share in the fair
value of the net assets amounted to USD 116 million and represented the companys goodwill recognised in the carrying amount
of the investment.
In determining the share in the fair value of net assets, the Group identified mineral resources that were not previously
recognised in the Sierra Gorda S.C.M.’s financial statements and determined its share in their fair value in the amount of
USD 619 million, taking into account the deferred tax liability in respect of the temporary exchange gains arising from the
identified mineral resources.
As at 31 December 2015, the recognised surplus resulting from the settlement of the cost was fully covered by an impairment
loss.
The Group’s share in unsettled losses of Sierra Gorda
The Group ceased to recognise its share of Sierra Gorda S.C.M.'s losses at the moment when the value of this share exceeded
the carrying amount of the share in the investment in Sierra Gorda S.C.M. and therefore the carrying amount of the shares in
Sierra Gorda S.C.M. amounted to PLN 0.
After reducing the share to zero, the Group carried out an analysis of the existence of a legal or customarily expected obligation
to make payments on behalf of Sierra Gorda S.C.M., which would give rise to an obligation for the Group to recognise the
liability in this regard. Based on the analyses carried out, the Group did not identify the existence of a legal or expected
obligation to make payments on behalf of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. referred to in IAS 28.39.
Starting from 2021, Sierra Gorda S.C.M. began to achieve positive financial results which made it possible to gradually settle
the Group's share in unsettled losses from previous years. In 2025, the Group's share in Sierra Gorda S.C.M.'s profits exceeded
the value of accumulated unsettled losses and following the recognition of an adjustment due to unrealised gains, the Group
recognised a positive carrying amount of shares in the joint venture in the amount of USD 434 million (PLN 1 562 million) as at
31 December 2025.
The Group also analysed the terms and conditions of the guarantee granted to Sierra Gorda S.C.M. as collateral for the repayment
of the loan instalment, which meets the definition of a financial guarantee in accordance with IFRS 9. Details of the guarantees
granted to Sierra Gorda S.C.M. are described in Note 8.6.

Conducting an impairment test
As at 31 December 2025, Sierra Gorda S.C.M., due to the identification of indications of an increase in the recoverable amount
of assets, i.e. an improvement in the forecasted cash flows, as a result of the testing estimated that the recoverable amount of
assets is higher than their carrying amount, which provided the basis for reversing a part of the impairment losses made in
previous years.
The result of the tests was adjusted by the assumptions adopted by the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group for the measurement
of the recoverable amount of Sierra Gorda S.C.M.'s non-current assets and recognised in the valuation using the equity method
under the item "Group's share in the joint venture's profit for the period".
The impairment test at the level of assets of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. was an indication for the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group to
conduct an impairment test of its shares in Sierra Gorda S.C.M. as at 31 December 2025.
As a part of impairment testing of shares in the joint venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M., the Group determined the recoverable
amount of shares as the fair value less costs to sell. The fair value was determined based on discounted cash flows
(DCF method) generated by the joint venture, adjusted by the value of other assets and liabilities recognised in Sierra Gorda
S.C.M.'s balance sheet. The adjustment included adjusting balance sheet items to fair value when there were differences
between the fair value and the carrying amount. As a result of the test, the recoverable amount of the shares in Sierra Gorda
S.C.M. was determined at a level higher than their carrying amount determined using the equity method, which gave a basis
to reverse a part of the impairment loss on the shares made in previous years in the amount of USD 70 million (PLN 252 million).
Detailed information on the test performed as at 31 December 2025 is presented in Part 3.

Accounting policies
Loans granted to Sierra Gorda S.C.M. were classified as credit-impaired financial assets due to the high credit risk at the moment
of initial recognition (POCI). POCI loans are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate, adjusted by the credit
risk using the scenario analysis and available free cash of Sierra Gorda S.C.M.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
The terms of repayment of loans granted to finance operations abroad, including planned repayment dates, were set in individual
agreements. Thanks to the signed agreement with South32 and the annexation of loan agreements granted to Sierra Gorda
S.C.M. by the Owners, in accordance with the current terms of the agreement, the principal and interest are paid on demand in
the contractual order, i.e. interest first, then principal, unless the Lenders agree otherwise, but no later than up to 31 December
2032. Due to the lack of expected repayment of the loan within 12 months from the end of the reporting period, and due to the
fact that each repayment requires the consent of both partners of the joint venture, and such consents did not exist as at the
reporting date and as at the date of signing of the consolidated financial statements, the Group presents the balance of loans as
a non-current receivable.
Due to the implementation of IFRS 9, as at 1 January 2018, the expected, undiscounted credit loss at the moment of initial
recognition was estimated at the amount of PLN 6 105 million (USD 1 754 million per the 3.4813 USD/PLN exchange rate of NBP
dated 29 December 2017). For each balance sheet date, the Group estimates the expected cash flows due to the repayment of
the loan granted. As at 31 December 2025 and 31 December 2024, the expected credit losses estimated at the moment of initial
recognition have decreased and gains on reversal of these expected credit losses increased the loan’s balance.
The repayments of loans by Sierra Gorda S.C.M. depend on that company’s financial standing. In 2024, there were repayments
in the total amount of USD 116 million (PLN 464 million). Further payments were made in 2025 in the total amount of USD 330
million (PLN 1 206 million). Due to the fact that settling the loan is planned and probable in the foreseeable future, the loan is
not a net investment under IAS 21.15.
Pursuant to the requirements of IFRS 9.5.5.17, the Group performed impairment testing of the loan. To estimate the expected
credit losses, scenario analysis (IFRS 9.5.5.18) was used, comprising the Group’s assumptions on the repayment of the loan
granted. The scenario analysis was based on cash flows of Sierra Gorda S.C.M., estimated on the basis of current market paths
of commodities price forecasts, which were subsequently 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 6.42%.
Other important assumptions used in the measurement of the loan concern: the probability of realisation of individual
measurement scenarios, the level of production, the level of costs, the level of capital expenditures, the external financing of
Sierra Gorda S.C.M., the form and level of financing of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. by the owners, taxation at the level of Sierra Gorda
S.C.M., the distribution of cash.
Future realisation of assumptions will depend on many macroeconomic, operational and financial factors, as well as on the
agreements made between the JV partners (sensitivity analysis of the carrying amount of the loan is presented in Note 7.5.2.4).

The loan granted to Sierra Gorda S.C.M. has a fixed interest rate of 8%.
As at 31 December 2025, the Group estimated the expected cash flows on repayment of receivables due to a loan granted to Sierra
Gorda S.C.M., as a result of which, pursuant to IFRS 9.5.5.14, a gain on reversal of an allowance for impairment was recognised in
the amount of PLN 484 million (USD 134 million), in particular due to the inclusion of better forecasted operating results of the
joint venture. In the comparable period, a gain due to the reversal of an allowance for impairment was recognised in the amount
of PLN 226 million (USD 55 million).
To estimate cash flows of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. as at 31 December 2025, the Group adopted price paths on the basis of internal
macroeconomic assumptions prepared based on available, long-term forecasts from financial and analytical institutions. A detailed
forecast was prepared for the period 2026-2030, while for the period 2031-2035 a technical adjustment of prices was applied
between the last year of the detailed forecast and 2036, for which a long-term metals price forecast was used at the following level:
for copper 9 250 USD/t;
for gold 2 500 USD/oz.
In the detailed forecast for the period 2026-2030 the following levels of metal prices were assumed:
for copper from 10 000 USD/t to 10 472 USD/t;
for gold from 2 800 USD/oz to 3 800 USD/oz.
As for the estimation of cash flows of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. as at 31 December 2024, the Group adopted price paths on the basis of
internal macroeconomic assumptions prepared based on available long-term forecasts from financial and analytical institutions. A
detailed forecast was prepared for the period 2025-2029, while for the period 2030-2034 a technical adjustment of prices was
applied between the last year of the detailed forecast and 2035, for which a long-term metals price forecast was used at the
following level:
for copper 8 800 USD/t;
for gold 1 900 USD/oz.
In the detailed forecast for the period 2025-2029 the following levels of metal prices were assumed:
for copper from 9 500 USD/t to 10 000 USD/t;
for gold from 1 800 USD/oz to 2 600 USD/oz.

PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group
Consolidated financial statements for 2025 Translation from the original Polish version
79
Methods and measurement techniques used by the Group 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
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.
Loans granted
This item comprises loans measured at fair value, the fair value of which 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.
Other financial assets/liabilities
Receivables/payables due to the settlement of derivatives, whose date of payment falls two working days after the end
of the reporting period, were recognised in this item. These instruments were measured at fair value set per the reference price
applied in the settlement of these transactions.
Currency and currency-interest derivatives
In the case of derivatives on the currency market and currency-interest transactions (CIRS), the forward prices from the maturity
dates of individual transactions were used to determine their fair value. 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 are taken from the Reuters system. The standard Garman-Kohlhagen model is used to measure European options on
currency markets.
Metals derivatives
In the case of derivatives on the commodity market, forward prices from the maturity dates of individual transactions were used
to determine their fair value. In the case of copper, official closing prices from the London Metal Exchange were used, and with
respect to silver and gold - the settlement prices of futures contracts from the COMEX exchange. Volatility ratios and forward prices
for measurement of derivatives at the end of the reporting period were obtained from the Reuters system. Levy’s approximation
to the Black-Scholes model was used for Asian options pricing on metals markets.
Long-term bank and other loans received
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, taking into account the credit risk of Group companies.
Level 3
Loans granted
Loans granted measured at amortised cost in the statement of financial position are included in this category, because of the use
of unobservable assumptions in the fair value measurement. With respect to estimating the fair value of these loans, a significant
element of the estimation are the forecasted cash flows of Sierra Gorda S.C.M., which are unobservable input data, and pursuant
to IFRS 13 the fair value of these assets is classified to level 3 of the hierarchy.
Detailed disclosures on the assumptions adopted for the measurement of loans were presented in Note 6.2, while the information
on the sensitivity of the fair value classified to level 3 for loans granted can be found in Note 7.5.2.4. As at 31 December 2025,
assumptions adopted for forecasted cash flows which were applied to measurement of fair value are consistent with assumptions
adopted for the calculation of the carrying amount, while the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value arises
from the adoption of different discount rates.

Other financial assets
This item includes receivables due to conditional payments associated with the agreement on the sale of subsidiaries S.C.M. Franke
and Project Nikolas Company INC., which were estimated based on a probabilistic model stipulated in the binding offer and
including the discount of payments for subsequent years.
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.
In the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, the Parent Entity applies hedge accounting for cash flows according to the requirements
of IFRS 9. Hedge accounting aims at reducing volatility in the Parent Entity’s net result, arising from periodic changes in the
measurement of transactions hedging individual types of market risk to which the Parent Entity is exposed. Hedging instruments
may be derivatives as well as bank and other loans in foreign currencies.
The designated hedges 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 Parent Entity 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 Parent Entity 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
Parent Entity 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. The Group 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 and reclassifies this
hedging cost to profit or loss at the moment the hedged item affects profit or loss. The Parent Entity recognises changes in the
time value until the hedged item is realised in other comprehensive income and reclassifies it to profit or loss on a one-off basis
at the time the hedged item is realised.
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.
Derivatives are no longer accounted for 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 Parent Entity 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 an underlying
instrument and is measured pursuant to the 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 Parent Entity 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.

Derivatives open items as at the end of the reporting period
In the process of market risk management, the Parent Entity implements, among others, seagull strategies. Within these structures, it applies cash flow hedge accounting in accordance with IFRS 9
and it designates for hedge accounting (CFH Cash Flow Hedge) only purchased put options and sold call options (collar structures). However, the Company treats the sold put options financing
these strategies as trade instruments. Therefore, the impact of the valuation of open hedging derivatives, as shown in the table below for seagull option structures, applies to the collar structures
designated as hedging.

Note 7.3 Other financial instruments measured at fair value
Accounting policies
The item of the statement of financial position “Other financial instruments measured at fair value” mainly 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 financial result, and
- loans granted measured at fair value through profit or loss, as they did not pass the contractual cash flow test (SPPI),
because in the financing structure at the last stage of the target recipient of funds, debt is changed into a share. Therefore,
a classification into this measurement category was mandatory.
Shares 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 translation of items 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 due to the specific nature of the assets of
companies whose shares are subject to measurement. 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 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 fair value of listed shares is calculated based on the closing price as at the end of the reporting period.
The loans’ fair value is set at the present value of future cash flows, including any change in market risk and credit risk factors
during the loans’ life.

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 and loans granted is
classified to level 2 of the hierarchy (i.e. measurement based on observable data, which however is not from an active market).
In 2025 as well as in 2024, there were no dividends from companies in which the Group had shares classified as other financial
instruments measured at fair value.
Similarly in these years, there were no transfers of accumulated gain or loss within equity in respect of companies in which the
Group holds shares classified as other financial instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.

Sensitivity analysis for significant types of market risk to which the Group is exposed presents the estimated impact
of potential changes in individual risk factors (at the end of reporting period) on 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 and mWIG40 indices respectively for a period of 3 calendar years ended at the end of the annual reporting period.
Note 7.4 Other financial instruments measured at amortised cost
Accounting policies
The item other financial instruments measured at amortised cost includes financial assets (mainly cash and cash equivalents
which were included in non-current assets because of the restrictions on their use for at least 12 months from the end of the
reporting period), 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.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgements

The Parent Entity manages identified financial risk factors in a conscious and responsible manner, using the adopted Market Risk
Management Policy, the Financial Liquidity Management Policy and the Credit Risk Management Policy. The process of financial
risk management in the Parent Entity is supported by the work of the Market Risk Committee, the Energy Committee, the Financial
Liquidity Committee and the Credit Risk Committee.
Note 7.5.1 Market risk
The market risk to which the Group is exposed to is understood as the possible occurrence of negative impact on the Group's
results arising from changes in the market prices of commodities, exchange rates, interest rates, and debt securities, as well as the
share prices of listed companies.
Note 7.5.1.1 Principles and techniques of market risk management
In market risk management (especially commodity and currency risk) the scale and profile of activities of the Parent Entity and of
production companies of KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. is of the greatest significance and impact the results of the KGHM Polska
Miedź S.A. Group.
The Parent Entity actively manages market risk by taking actions and making decisions in this regard within the context
of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group’s global exposure as a whole.
In accordance with the adopted policy, the goals of the market risk management process in the Group are as follows:
decrease the probability of losing financial liquidity;
increase the probability of meeting budget targets;
maintain the good financial condition of the Group;
limit the negative impact of volatility in prices of market factors on cash flows and financial results of the Group;
support the process of strategic decision making related to Group’s investment activities, including financing sources of
investments.
All objectives of market risk management should be considered as a whole, and the manner of their realisation is determined
mainly by the appetite for risk, the Group’s internal situation and market conditions.
The goals of market risk management at the Group level are achieved through their realisation in individual production companies
of the Group, with the coordination of these activities at the Parent Entity’s level, in which key tasks related to the process of market
risk management in the Group were centralised (such as coordination of the identification of sources of exposure to market risk,
proposing hedging strategies, contacting financial institutions in order to sign, confirm and settle derivative transactions, and
calculating fair value measurements).
One of the market risk management techniques in the Parent Entity are hedging strategies using derivatives. The natural hedging
is also used. The Parent Entity uses hedging transactions under the hedge accounting.
Taking into account the potential scope of their impact on the Group’s results, market risk factors were divided into the following
groups:
Group

Approach to risk management
Note 7.2
Group I

Copper price
A strategic approach is applied to this group, aimed at systematically
building up a portfolio of instruments mitigating the market risk
identified in the area of costs and revenues from sales while taking
into account the long-term cyclical nature of various markets. A
portfolio of open instruments may be restructured before it expires.

From the Group’s point of view, this group is comprised of less
significant risks, although sometimes these risks are significant from
an individual entity’s point of view. Therefore, it is tactically managed
- on an ad-hoc basis, depending on the market conditions.
Note 7.2
Other exchange rates
Note 7.2
Interest rates
In market risk management various approaches are applied for particular, identified exposure groups. The Parent Entity considers
the following factors when selecting hedging strategies or restructuring hedging positions: current and forecasted market
conditions, the internal situation of the Parent Entity, the effective level and cost of hedging, and the impact of the minerals
extraction tax.

The Parent Entity 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 Parent Entity only executes those derivatives which it has the ability to evaluate 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 the market valuation of a given instrument, the Parent Entity
uses information obtained from leading information services, banks, and brokers.
The Market Risk Management Policy in the Group 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). The primary instruments 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 Parent Entity 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 Parent Entity aims to ensure a
maximal match between these parameters to minimise the sources of ineffectiveness.
The Parent Entity quantifies its market risk exposure using a consistent and comprehensive measure. Market risk management in
the Group 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 to market risk.
One of the measures used as an auxiliary tool in making decisions in the market risk management process in the Parent Entity 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 90% 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. EBITDA-at-Risk ratio is calculated for both the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group and the JV Sierra Gorda S.C.M.
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, limits with respect to commitment in derivatives have
been set.
For the Parent Entity limits on metals and currency markets were set at:
with respect to instruments representing the rights of the Company - up to 85% of planned, monthly sales volumes of
copper, silver and gold from own concentrates, and up to 85% of planned, monthly revenues from the sale of products
from own concentrates in USD or of the monthly, contracted net foreign currency cash flows in case of other currencies,
with respect to instruments representing the obligations of the Company (transactions financing the hedging strategies)
- up to 50% of planned, monthly sales volumes of copper and silver from own concentrates, and up to 50% of planned,
monthly revenues from the sale of products from own concentrates in USD.
Whereby expenses for servicing the debt denominated in USD decrease the nominal amount of exposure to hedge the planned
revenues from sales of metals.

PLN millions, unless otherwise stated
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group
Consolidated financial statements for 2025 Translation from the original Polish version
89
With respect to the risk of changes in interest rates, the Parent Entity 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.
For selected production companies in the Group, limits were set for commitment in derivatives on the currency markets at the
same levels as those functioning in the Parent Entity or lower (75%), while with respect to transactions on the copper market the
limit of 75% was set for instruments representing the rights of a company and 40% for instruments representing obligations of a
company. The limit with respect to commitment in derivatives on nickel, silver and gold markets amounts up to 60% of planned,
monthly sales volume from own concentrates of selected production companies.
The maximum time horizon within which the Group 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 Group.
Note 7.5.1.2 Commodity risk
The Parent Entity is exposed to the risk of changes in the prices of the metals it sells: copper, silver, gold and lead. Furthermore,
the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group is exposed to the risk of changes in the prices of copper, gold, nickel, molybdenum, platinum
and palladium.
In the Parent Entity and the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group, the price formulas used in physical delivery contracts are mainly
based on average monthly quotations from the London Metal Exchange for copper and other common metals and from the London
Bullion Market for precious metals. Within the commercial policy, the Parent Entity and the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group 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 Group’s benchmark profile, in particular in terms of the reference prices and the quotation periods.
On the metals market, the Group has a so-called long position, which means it has higher sales than purchases. The analysis of the
Group’s strategic exposure to market risk should be performed by deducting from the volume of metals sold the amount of metal
in purchased materials.
The Group’s strategic exposure to the risk of changes in the price of copper and silver in the years 2024-2025 is presented
in the table below.

The notional amount of copper price hedging strategies settled in 2025 represented approx. 9% (2% in 2024) of the total sales of
this metal realised by the Parent Entity (it represented approx. 14% of net sales
1
in 2025 and 2% in 2024).
The notional amount of silver price hedging strategies settled in 2025 represented approx. 12% of the total sales of this metal
realised by the Company (2% in 2024).
As part of the realisation of the strategic hedging plan of the Parent Entity against market risk, in 2025, transactions hedging the
planned revenues from metals sales were implemented. On the copper market, seagull option structures (Asian options) for the
period from March 2025 to December 2027 for the total tonnage of 138.33 thousand tonnes were entered into. On the silver
market, collar option structures (Asian options) for the period from July 2025 to December 2027 for the total tonnage of 16.11
million troy ounces and seagull option structures (Asian options) for the period from July 2026 to December 2028 for the total
tonnage of 11.25 million troy ounces were implemented. In accordance with hedge accounting principles, collar structures, which
are a part of the seagull strategy, were designated as hedging sales revenues.
In 2025 QP adjustment swap transactions were entered into on the copper and gold markets with maturities of up to June 2026, as
part of the management of a net trading position
2
.
As a result, as at 31 December 2025, the Parent Entity held an open derivatives position for:
136.8 thousand tonnes of copper (of which 132 thousand tonnes arose from the strategic management of market risk,
while 4.8 thousand tonnes came from the management of a net trading position),
27.42 million troy ounces of silver, and
36.8 thousand troy ounces of gold (net).

Applied in order to react to changes in contractual arrangements with customers, non-standard pricing terms as regards metals sales and the purchase of

As a result, as at 31 December 2024, the Parent Entity held an open derivatives position for:
53.1 thousand tonnes of copper (of which 46.5 thousand tonnes arose from the strategic management of market risk,
while 6.6 thousand tonnes came from the management of a net trading position),
5.25 million troy ounces of silver, and
16.5 thousand troy ounces of gold (net).
In 2025 and in 2024, neither the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group nor any of the production companies implemented any
forward transactions on the commodity market.
As at 31 December 2025 and 2024, the risk of changes in metals prices was also related to derivatives embedded in the purchase
contracts for metal-bearing materials entered into by the Parent Entity.
Condensed tables of open transactions in derivatives held by the Company on the copper and silver markets as at 31 December
2025 and as at 31 December 2024, entered into as part of the strategic management of market risk, are presented below (the
hedged notional amounts of transactions in the presented periods are allocated evenly on a monthly basis).
The purchased put options represent the hedging against the risk of changes in metals prices, the sold call options limit the
participation in prices increases, while the sold put options limit the hedge in the case of a price decrease.

Note 7.5.1.3 Risk of changes in foreign exchange rates
Regarding the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates within the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group, the following types
of exposures were identified:
transaction exposure related to the volatility of cash flows in the base (functional) currency,
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, whose values expressed in the base
(functional) currency depend on future levels of exchange rates of the foreign currencies with respect to the base (functional)
currency. 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 exposure to currency risk in the Parent Entity’s business operations are the proceeds from sales
of products (with respect to metals prices, processing and producer margins).
The exposure to currency risk also derives from items in the consolidated statement of financial position denominated
in foreign currencies, which under the existing accounting regulations must be translated, upon settlement or periodic valuation,
including the translation of foreign operations statements, 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 consolidated 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.
9% (in 2024: 19%) of the total revenues from sales of copper and silver realised by the Parent Entity in 2025.
In 2025, the Parent Entity did not implement any hedging transactions on the currency market. Nevertheless, on the interest rates
markets the hedging position has been restructured. Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap (CIRS) transactions in the notional amount
of PLN 1.6 billion with a maturity date of 27 June 2029 hedging both the sales revenues in the currency, as well as the variable
interest rate of issued bonds have been closed. As a result of the carried out closure of CIRS transactions, the Parent Entity
generated the positive cash flow from a positive valuation of the instrument and effectively moved to the prior, variable interest
rate of bonds in PLN.
As a result, as at 31 December 2025 the Parent Entity held an open position on the currency market for the notional amount
of USD 240 million (USD 960 million as at 31 December 2024).
The condensed tables of open transactions in derivatives of the Parent Entity on the currency market as at 31 December 2025 and
31 December 2024 are presented below (the hedged notional in the presented periods is allocated evenly on a monthly basis).
Management of the risk of changes in the USD/PLN exchange rate open derivatives as at 31 December 2025
Management of the risk of changes in the USD/PLN exchange rate open derivatives as at 31 December 2024
As for managing currency risk, the Parent Entity applies natural hedging by borrowing in the currency in which it has revenues. As
at 31 December 2025, following their translation to PLN, the bank loans and the investment loans which were drawn in USD
amounted to PLN 2 173 million (as at 31 December 2024: PLN 2 420 million).
The currency structure of financial instruments exposed to currency risk (change in the USD/PLN, EUR/PLN and CAD/PLN
exchange rates) of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group and sensitivity analysis to the risk of changes in the exchange rates are
presented in the tables below. In order to determine the potential changes in the USD/PLN, EUR/PLN and CAD/PLN exchange rates
for sensitivity analysis purposes, the Black-Scholes model (the geometrical Brownian motion) was used.

Note 7.5.1.4 Interest rate risk
In 2025 the Group was exposed to the risk of changes in interest rates due to loans granted to a joint venture, investing cash, the
reverse factoring program and using borrowings.
Positions with variable interest rates expose the Group 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 profit or loss). Positions
with fixed interest rates expose the Group to the risk of fair value changes of a given position, excluding positions measured at
amortised cost, for which the change in fair value does not affect their measurement and profit or loss.
In 2025 the Parent Entity restructured the hedging position. Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap (CIRS) transactions in the notional
amount of PLN 1.6 billion with a maturity date of 27 June 2029, hedging both the sales revenues in the currency as well as the
variable interest rate of issued bonds, have been closed. As a result of the carried out closure of CIRS transactions, the Company
generated positive cash flow from a positive valuation of the instrument and effectively transitioned to the prior, variable interest
rate of bonds in PLN.

Impact of the reference rates reform
In 2025 the Group used the financial instruments based on SOFR, CME TERM SOFR and EURIBOR (instruments in foreign currencies)
and WIBOR (instruments in PLN).
In December 2024, 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, chose the reference rate which will replace WIBOR. An index from the
WIRF family was chosen, based on unsecured deposits of credit and financial institutions, and on 24 January 2025, an
announcement was made on the selection of the target name POLSTR (Polish Short Term Rate) for the proposed index. The planned
changes will come into force in 2027.
One of the key events in 2025 was the formal adoption of documentation required by the Benchmark Regulation with respect to
the proposed POLSTR index and the start of its publication. The Steering Committee of the National Working Group announced
that on 2 June 2025 the official designation of the POLSTR index commenced, and the first application of the POLSTR index took
place on 1 September 2025. Therefore, the POLSTR index gained the status of reference rate pursuant to the requirements of the
PART 7 Financial instruments and financial risk management

Consolidated financial statements for 2025 Translation from the original Polish version
97
Benchmark Regulation. In 2026, indicators as to the occurrence of a regulatory event defined under article 23c sec. 1 of the
Benchmark Regulation are to be verified. The occurrence of a regulatory event may be a reason for the initiation of a regulatory
procedure leading to the issuance of a decree of the Minister of Finance, which will indicate a replacement for the key reference
rate WIBOR. This decree will also define the adjusting spread and the date from which the replacement will be applied.
As at 31 December 2025, the Group estimated that the impact of IBOR reform on the financial statements will be immaterial.
As at 31 December 2025 and 31 December 2024, the Group held financial instruments based on variable interest rates, which were
not yet replaced by alternative rates. The amount of financial instruments that are based on a rate subject to planned reform are
presented in the following table.

Note 7.5.1.5 Risk of changes in prices of energy and energy carriers
In market risk management resulting from changes in prices of energy and energy carriers, the scale and profile of activities of the
Parent Entity is of the greatest significance and impact on the results of the KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group. The risk of changes in
prices of electricity and energy commodities is a commodity risk for the Parent Entity, the measurement of which is based on its
impact on cash flow.
The Parent Entity’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 Parent Entity’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 Parent Entity being higher than the level of greenhouse gas emissions for which the Parent Entity 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 Parent Entity 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 the risk 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 Parent Entity purchases electricity in forward products (RTEE) as well as on the
intra-day and next-day market. Moreover, the Parent Entity entered into a contract for the supply of electricity from 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). As part of the management of risk of changes in the prices of energy resources, the
Parent Entity entered into option transactions on the TTF (Title Transfer Facility) gas market. Seagull option structures on the contract
Endex ICE TTF Natural Gas Month Ahead were entered into.

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 Parent Entity from planned amounts. In terms of changes in the prices of CO
2
emission
allowances, the Parent Entity 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 terms of the risk of changes in property rights, the Parent Entity 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).
KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. sells electricity mostly to customers which provide services to the Parent Entity on properties belonging

Note 7.5.1.6 Impact of hedge accounting on the financial statements
The following table contains information on changes in the fair value of hedging instruments, as well as corresponding changes in the fair value of hedged positions during the reporting period,
being
the basis for recognising the effective and ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of hedging instruments in the years 2024-2025 (excluding the tax effect).
In hedging relations, only the intrinsic value of the option is designated as a hedging instrument. The time value approximates zero in the horizon of a hedging relation. The hedge’s inefficiency
recognised in the statements of profit or loss in the reporting periods 2024-2025 was immaterial.

Note 7.5.2 Credit risk
Credit risk is defined as the risk that the Group’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 sources of exposure to credit risk are:
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 Group 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 Group 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 Group 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.
Under the simplified model the Group 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 Group allocates periodically 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 2025, the total amount of free and restricted cash and cash equivalents of PLN 438 million was held in bank
accounts and in short-term deposits (in total as at 31 December 2024: PLN 711 million).
All entities with which deposit transactions are entered into by the Group operate in the financial sector. Analysis of exposure to
this type of risk indicated that these are solely banks with the highest, medium-high and medium ratings, and which have an
appropriate level of equity and a strong, stable market position. The credit risk in this regard is monitored through the on-going
review of the financial standing and by maintaining an appropriately low concentration levels in individual financial institutions.
The following table presents the level of concentration of cash and deposits allocated to financial institutions,, including the
assessment of their creditworthiness.

The risk level of a financial institution arising from depositing cash on bank accounts or deposits in the said institution, and taking
into consideration the risk of these instruments, is almost the same, and therefore they are presented jointly.
As at 31 December 2025 the maximum single entity share of the amount exposed to credit risk arising from cash and bank deposits
amounted to 27%, or PLN 117 million (as at 31 December 2024: 29%, or PLN 207 million).

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 Group 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 impairment loss is insignificant. These
assets are classified to Degree 1 of the impairment model.
Note 7.5.2.2 Credit risk related to derivative transactions

Taking into consideration the receivables due to open derivatives transactions entered into by the Parent Entity (excluding
embedded derivatives) as at 31 December 2025 and net receivables due to settled derivatives, the maximum single entity share of
the amount exposed to credit risk arising from these transactions amounted to 15%, or PLN 47 million (as at 31 December 2024:
29%, or PLN 151 million).
In order to reduce cash flows and at the same time to limit credit risk, the Parent Entity 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 formula 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.

The Parent Entity 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
2025, the amount of receivables transferred to factoring, for which payment from factors was not received, amounted to
PLN 3 million (as at 31 December 2024: PLN 13 million). Information on the amount of revenues from sales subjected to factoring
in the financial period is presented in Note 2.4.
An inseparable element of the credit risk management process performed by the Parent Entity 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 Parent Entity 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 above forms of collateral and the credit limits received from the insurance company, as at
31 December 2025 the Parent Entity had secured 87% of its trade receivables (as at 31 December 2024, 80%).
Although KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. does not use collateral, credit risk connected with trade receivables is subject
to monitoring, and the majority of sales are to proven, long-term customers conducting international activities.
Assessment of concentration of credit risk in the Group:
Sector
concentration
While KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. and KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. operate in the same sector, these two
companies are different both in terms of their portfolios of products as well as in terms of the geographic
location and nature of their customers, and consequently this sector concentration of credit risk is considered
to be acceptable.
Other companies of the Group operate in various economic sectors, such as transport, construction,
commerce, industrial production and energy. As a consequence, in the case of most Group companies, in
terms of sectors, there is no concentration of credit risk.
Customers
concentration
As at 31 December 2025 the balance of receivables from the 7 largest customers represented 68%
of trade receivables (as at 31 December 2024: 51%). Despite the concentration of this type of risk, it is believed
that due to the availability of historical data and the many years of experience cooperating with its customers,
as well as to the securing used, the level of credit risk is low.
Geographical
concentration
Companies of the Group have been cooperating for many years with a large number of customers, which
affects the geographical diversification of trade receivables. Geographical concentration of credit risk for trade
receivables is presented in the table below.

Accounting policies
The Group 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
after the moment of 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 Group’s entities apply
provision matrices, made on the basis of historical levels of payment of trade receivables, which are periodically recalibrated in
order to update them.
The Group 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 in payment, according to ranges
presented below as “Important estimates and assumptions”.
Default is defined 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, collateral is also taken into account by allocating expected
recovery rates to the particular types of collateral.
Moreover, forward-looking information is taken into account 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 Group
recognises any deterioration in them in comparison to the previous period, in the ECL calculation the forward looking factor,
which corrects risk connected with any decrease in receivables recovery, is taken into account. As at the end of the reporting
period, on 31 December 2025, no deterioration of macroeconomic factors was noted.

Note 7.5.2.4 Credit risk related to loans granted to the joint venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M. (POCI)
Credit risk related to loans granted depends on risk related to the realisation of the joint mining venture in Chile (Sierra Gorda
S.C.M.). These loans, as a result of the impairment recognised at the moment of initial recognition due to credit risk, were classified
as POCI, and are measured at the end of the subsequent reporting periods at amortised cost using the effective interest rate
method and the effective discount rate adjusted by credit risk.
The basis for accruing interest on POCI loans is their gross value less any allowance for impairment at the moment of initial
recognition.
The loan granted does not have collateral limiting the exposure to credit risk, therefore the maximum amount exposed to potential
loss due to credit risk is the gross amount of the loan, less expected credit losses recognised pursuant to IFRS 9.
Changes in the value of POCI loans in the reporting and comparable periods are presented in Note 6.2.
Neither in the reporting period nor in the comparable period was there any expected impairment of POCI loans.
Sensitivity analysis of the fair value of loans due to the change in forecasted cash flows of Sierra Gorda S.C.M.
As at 31 December 2025, the Group classified the fair value measurement of loans granted to level 3 of the fair value hierarchy
because of the utilisation in the measurement of a significant unobservable parameter, being the forecasted cash flows of Sierra
Gorda S.C.M. These cash flows are the most sensitive to changes in copper prices, which implies other assumptions such as
forecasted production and operating margin. Therefore, pursuant to IFRS 13 p.93.f, the Group performed a sensitivity analysis of
the fair value (level 3) of loans to changes in copper prices.
Price paths adopted to estimate the cash flows of Sierra Gorda S.C.M. are presented in Note 6.2.

Note 7.5.2.5 Credit risk related to other financial assets
As at 31 December 2025, the most significant item in other financial assets was cash accumulated on the separate, special purpose
bank accounts of the Mine Closure Fund in the amount of PLN 532 million (as at 31 December 2024: PLN 491 million).
All special purpose bank accounts of the Group, which are dedicated to collection of cash for future decommissioning costs of
mines, are carried out by banks with the highest or medium-high ratings confirming the security of the deposited cash.
The following tables present the level of cash concentration within funds dedicated to the collection of cash by the Group for future
decommissioning costs of mines, according to the credit ratings of financial institutions in which cash is held on special purpose
accounts.

Impairment losses on cash accumulated on the bank accounts of special purpose funds: the Mine Closure Fund, 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 end of the annual reporting period. The Group 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 impairment loss is insignificant. These assets are classified to Degree 1 of the impairment
model.

PART 8 Borrowings and the management of liquidity and capital
Note 8.1 Capital management policy
Capital management in the Group is aimed at securing funds for business development and maintaining the appropriate level of
liquidity.
In accordance with market practice, the Group monitors the level of financial security, among others on the basis of the Net
Debt/Adjusted EBITDA ratio presented in the table below:

*Adjusted EBITDA for the period of 12 months ending on the last day of the reporting period, total of adjusted EBITDA of reporting segments excluding adjusted
EBITDA of the reporting segment joint venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M.
The level of the Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA ratio achieved in 2025 is consistent with the assumptions adopted by the Group in the
reporting period and confirms its stable financial condition.
The Group forecasts the coverage ratio of financial needs by available sources of financing, in order to identify, at a sufficiently
early stage, the risk of 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 Group 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 Group’s creditworthiness, understood as the possibility of obtaining and
servicing debt. To limit the unfavourable impact of increases in market interest rates, some of the Group’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.
The second indicator monitored by the Group in the liquidity and capital management process, in particular in order to meet the
obligations arising from the borrowing agreements concluded by the Parent Entity, is the value of adjusted operating profit, which
is the basis for calculating EBITDA, which is a part of the financial covenant. The value of this ratio is presented in the table below:

Financial covenant Net debt/EBITDA is calculated based on consolidated data, pursuant to unified definitions stipulated in
borrowing agreements. Information on liabilities for which covenants apply is presented in Note 8.4.
As at 31 December 2025 the carrying amount of liabilities drawn under the agreements containing the financial covenant amounted
to PLN 1 447 million.
As at the end of the reporting period, in the financial year and after the end of the reporting period, up to the date of publication
of these consolidated financial statements, the value of the financial covenant subject to the obligation to report as at 30 June 2025
and 31 December 2025, met the conditions stipulated in the credit agreements. There are no indications that the Group will have
difficulties with fulfilling the liabilities due to meeting the covenants when they are checked again as at 30 June 2026.
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 at fair value through other comprehensive income
(Note 7.3, Accounting policies) less any deferred tax effect.
Accumulated other comprehensive income consists of exchange differences from the translation of statements of operations
with a functional currency other than PLN (Note 1.5, Accounting policies) and actuarial gains/losses on post-employment benefits
programs less any deferred tax effect (Part 11, Accounting policies).
Note 8.2.1 Share capital

Based on the Act of 15 September 2000, i.e. the Commercial Partnerships and Companies Code, the Parent Entity is required to
create reserve capital for any potential (future) or existing losses, to which no less than 8% of a given financial 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 2025 the statutory reserve capital in the Group’s entities amounted to PLN 762 million, of which PLN 667 million relates
to the Parent Entity, and is recognised in retained earnings.
Note 8.3 Liquidity management policy
Liquidity management in the Group is the process based on assuring an adequate level of cash and access to a broad portfolio of
flexible sources of financing in order to ensure the capacity to meet the current as well as future financial obligations, taking into
account the costs of obtaining liquidity.
The Group continuously forecasts and monitors the liquidity based on expected cash flows. In order to minimise the risk of a
liquidity gap, the Group takes actions which guarantee safety and financial stability through diversification of sources of financing
and assuring their long-term maturity period.
The Management Board of the Parent Entity, supported by the Financial Liquidity Committee, is responsible for financial liquidity
management in the Group and it is performed based on the approved, appropriate Policy.
The basic principles arising from the Financial Liquidity Management Policy in the Group are:
assuring the stable and effective financing of the Group’s activities,
continuous monitoring of the Group’s debt level,
effective management of working capital, and
coordination, by the Parent Entity, of processes of financial liquidity management in the Group companies.
As a part of the process of liquidity management, the Group makes use of the reverse factoring program which supports the
process of working capital management and diversifies the sources of working capital financing.
The level of utilisation of factoring limits of individual factors is monitored on an ongoing basis. Since the Group identifies the
possibility of liquidity risk concentration due to the application of reverse factoring, in order to reduce it, reverse factoring
agreements are concluded with various factors for an indefinite period of time.
All entities which concluded reverse factoring agreements with the Group are renowned financial institutions.
Under the liquidity management process, the Group also utilises other instruments which enhance its effectiveness such as cash
pooling locally in PLN, USD and EUR, and internationally - in USD. 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.
Moreover, in the reporting period actions were continued aimed at conducting safe and responsible financial policy by basing the
financing on diversified and long-term financial instruments.
As part of the implementation of the above assumption, on 2 December 2025 the Parent Entity entered into an unsecured revolving
credit facility agreement in the amount of USD 1 500 million with an international consortium of banks for a period of 5 years with
an option to extend for another 2 years (5+1+1). The agreement also includes a non-binding option to increase the loan amount
by a total amount not exceeding USD 500 million on terms identical to the terms of the base amount. The credit facility replaced
the revolving syndicated credit facility in the amount of USD 1 500 million dated 20 December 2019.
On 17 December 2025, under the Bond Issuance Program agreement entered into in 2024, the Parent Entity issued 7-year bonds,
D series, with a nominal value of PLN 1 600 million and a redemption date of 17 December 2032. The funds raised from the issuance
were used for an earlier redemption of 10-year B series bonds issued in June 2019. The Parent Entity’s exercise of the right to early
redemption of series B bonds was associated with the need to pay a premium to bondholders.

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,

As at 31 December 2025, the Group’s liabilities due to borrowing, debt securities issued and leases, translated into PLN, amounted
to PLN 5 849 million, or broken down by currencies: USD 614 million, PLN 3 536 million, EUR 15 million, CAD 13 million and in other
currencies in the amount of PLN 5 million (as at 31 December 2024 liabilities, translated into PLN, amounted to PLN 6 171 million,
or broken down by currencies: USD 604 million, PLN 3 603 million, EUR 7 million, CAD 17 million and in other currencies in the
amount of PLN 12 million).
As at 31 December 2025, the balance of trade payables transferred to reverse factoring by the Group amounted to
PLN 1 297 million (as at 31 December 2024: PLN 2 000 million).
Trade payables within the reverse factoring mechanism are presented in the statement of financial position as “Trade and other
payables” and are in the category of “other”, as due to the significant judgment of the Group presented in Note 10.3, such a
presentation most accurately presents the nature of these transactions.
The structure of debt confirms the effective advancing of the strategy of the Group, aimed at ensuring long term financial stability
by basing the financial structure on diversified and long term financing sources.

date of their placement (the same applies to the statement of cash flows). Cash is measured at its nominal amount plus interest,
including a loss allowance for expected credit losses (Note 7.5.2.1).

As at 31 December 2025, the Group had cash in bank deposits in the amount of PLN 63 million (as at 31 December 2024
PLN 61 million), which are funds in separate VAT accounts, designated for servicing split payments. These funds are gradually used
to pay the VAT payables to suppliers and other payments mandated by law.
Note 8.6 Liabilities due to guarantees granted
Guarantees are an essential financial liquidity management tool of the Group, thanks to which the Group’s companies and the joint
venture Sierra Gorda S.C.M. do not have to use their cash in order to secure their liabilities towards other entities.
Accounting policies
The Group 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.
At the moment of initial recognition, the Group recognises in the statement of financial position a financial guarantee at its fair
value, in the item:
financial assets measured at amortised cost (other financial assets),
other liabilities (deferred income)
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, assumptions and judgements
For the calculation of expected credit losses ECL - the Group adopts estimates for the rating, PD (probability of default)
and LGD (loss given default) parameters. 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 2025, the contingent liabilities of the Group due to guarantees and letters of credit granted amounted to a total
of PLN 2 740 million (as at 31 December 2024, PLN 1 150 million) and due to promissory note payables amounted to
PLN 211 million (as at 31 December 2024, PLN 223 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 Group 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, in underground mines: shafts, wells, galleries, drifts, primary chambers), backfilling, drainage and firefighting
pipelines, piezometric holes and electricity, signal and optical fiber cables. Pre-stripping costs in open pit mines and 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 Group includes discounted decommissioning costs of fixed assets
related to underground and surface 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 and exchange differences in the part 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
restoration 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 the perpetual usufruct right to land 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 Group,
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 ore extracted from the deposit or quantity of units produced, and this extraction or production is not
spread evenly through the period of their usage. In particular it relates to buildings and structures of the mines machines
and mining equipment, except for the items of property, plant and equipment used in metallurgical plants, where their
usage results from the useful economic life of the given item of property, plant and equipment.
Important estimates and assumptions
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 dates either to the useful life end
date or to the lease end date, unless the ownership of an asset is transferred to the Group before the end of the lease, in which
case depreciation rates are adjusted to the estimated useful life of the asset.

PART 9 Non-current assets and related liabilities

KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. Group
Consolidated financial statements for 2025 Translation from the original Polish version
122
The Group performs regular reviews of its property, plant and equipment in terms of the adequacy of adopted economic useful
lives to current operating conditions, including the impact of climate changes.
Limiting the environmental impact by reducing greenhouse gas emissions may apply, in particular, to vehicles with combustion
engines used in the Group’s mines if the European Union or Polish regulators introduce changes to regulations on exhaust
emission standards. As at the end of the annual reporting period, the Group has not identified any significant regulatory risk
in this area in the foreseeable future.
Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate a risk 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, and water rights
in Chile.
Exploration and evaluation assets
The following expenditures are classified as exploration and evaluation assets:
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 Group 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.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
Important estimates and assumptions relating to impairment of mining and metallurgical property, plant and equipment and
intangible assets are presented in Note 3.
The net value of mining and metallurgical property, plant and equipment which are subject to depreciation using the natural
method as at 31 December 2025 amounted to PLN 1 287 million (as at 31 December 2024: PLN 1 454 million).

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.
Depreciation is done using the straight-line method.
For individual groups of fixed assets, the following useful lives have been adopted:
The 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 in this regard may be found in
Note 9.8). 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:
The Group
Total useful lives
Acquired property rights not related to mining activities
5-50 years
Software
2-5 years
Other intangible assets

Note 9.4 Provision for decommissioning costs of mines and other technological facilities
Accounting policies
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, which are made on the basis of ore extraction forecasts (for mining facilities), and technical-economic studies
prepared either by specialist firms or by the Parent Entity.
In the case of surface mines, certain actions and costs may influence the scope of restoration work, such as costs of hauling
barren rock, incurred during mine life and due to its operations, are recognised as operating costs being an integral part of the
production process and are therefore excluded from costs that are a basis of calculating the provision for mine decommissioning.
The amount of provision represents the estimated future decommissioning costs of mines and other technological facilities
discounted to present value. Revaluation of this provision is made in two stages:
1) calculating of the estimated decommissioning costs 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 effective 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 in the Parent Entity is based on the yield on treasury bonds at the end of the reporting period,
with maturities nearest to the planned financial outflow 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 Parent Entity’s
Management on the basis of the consistency of the adopted assumptions. In the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group it is
the rate of return on investments in ten- and twenty-year treasury bills of the US Federal Reserve and the rate of return
on investments in fiveyear treasury bonds issued by the governments of Canada and Chile.
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 balances of the Mine Closure Fund
and Tailings Storage Facility Restoration Fund, which the Parent Entity creates under separate regulations, i.e. the act of 9 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 execution by the Parent Entity 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 Parent Entity 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.
Income from cash transferred to a separate bank account increases their value and are recognised in profit or loss as other
operating income. 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 accordance with the regulations, one of the forms of securing the funds of the Tailings Storage Facility Restoration Fund are
financial guarantees issued by the bank on demand of the Parent Entity, of which the Parent Entity is a beneficiary. As at 31
December 2025 the guarantees amounted to PLN 141 million and their amount is updated on an annual basis. The Parent Entity
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.

Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
For the measurement of provision, the Company adopted an inflation rate at the level of 2.9% for 2026 and for subsequent
periods at the level of 2.5%, in line with the long-term inflation target (in the comparable period - 5.6% for 2025 and 2.7% for
2026 and for subsequent periods 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 up to 2035), the Company adopted a risk-free rate of
5.15% (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 up to 2034, a risk-free
rate of 5.87% 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 rate of 0.98% (in the comparable period, the same assumptions were adopted).
Estimation of this provision is based on specially-prepared studies using ore extraction forecasts (for mining facilities), and
technical-economic expertise. The latest update of the study was prepared as at the end of 2025. Decommissioning costs are
calculated based on current prices of the sector for construction and assembly services, which incorporate climate risk by
reflecting the current level of costs incurred by the industry to adapt to climate change and to mitigate the effects of climate
risks. In the future, as the industry's climate protection costs increase, this indicator will increasingly include climate risk
mitigation expenditures. An example of the construction and assembly industry adapting to climate risk is the gradual
replacement of combustion-powered machinery with low-emission ones (e.g. battery-powered), used to decommission facilities
covered by the provision for decommissioning costs of mines and other technological facilities.
In the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group, in the current period for the purpose of the measurement of the provision for
decommissioning costs of mines and other technological facilities located in the United States of America and Canada, a real
discount rate at the level of 1.87% to 2.62% was adopted depending on the mine (in the comparable period at the level of 1.07%
to 2.48%).
With regard to the costs of some activities carried out during the exploratory work of surface mines, which at the same time
serve to restore (recultivate) such pits, the Group made a judgment and recognised that these costs are mostly current
production costs, because these activities primarily determine the current mine production and revenue generation, and their
restoration is a secondary effect. Therefore, the costs of such activities are not included in the measurement of the restoration
provision.

Note 9.7 Lease disclosures the Group as a lessee
Accounting policies
As a lessee, the Group identifies leases in usufruct agreements, inter alia, land, perpetual usufruct right to land, and transmission
easements, as well as technical equipment, machines, and transport vehicles.
The Group 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 Group 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 Group 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 Group 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 Group 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 given lease period was
set with the assumption that the lessee will terminate the agreement. In fixed lease payments, the Group 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 Group 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 8.4.
Lease rate - lease payments are discounted by the Group using the incremental borrowing rate of the lessee, except when the
interest rate of a lease agreement can be easily determined.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
Identification of non-lease components
In the agreements for the lease of mining machinery, apart from the lease component, the Group identified non-lease
components related to the provision of services other than the lease of assets. To separate the lease and non-lease components,
the Group made a judgment, respectively allocating the remuneration for a given agreement to both components, based on the
relative unit price of the lease component and the total unit price of the non-lease components.
Estimation of the incremental borrowing rate of the lease
For the purpose of calculating the discount rates under IFRS 16, the Group assumes that the discount rate should reflect the cost
of financing that would be incurred to purchase the leased item. The Group calculates the incremental borrowing rates, for
individual time ranges of lease agreements, on a quarterly basis and this rate is used to measure lease liabilities arising from
lease agreements concluded or modified during a given quarter.
The materiality threshold for leases of low-value of underlying assets is set at PLN 20 000.

In 2025 and in comparable period, the Group did not enter into sales and leaseback transactions.
As at 31 December 2025, the Group has lease agreements that contain extension options and termination options, and the
estimated value of future cash outflows, to which the Group is potentially exposed and are not included in the measurement of
lease liabilities amount to PLN 16 million and PLN 29 million respectively (as at 31 December 2024: PLN 26 million and PLN 42
million). The Group has lease agreements with guaranteed residual values, but they were included in the measurement of lease
liabilities. Moreover, in the comparable period, the Group had lease agreements that had not commenced yet, to which it is obliged
as a lessee, and the value of future cash outflows in this respect amounted to PLN 13 million.
Note 9.8 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 Group. 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 Group 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 is recognised in 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.

Note 9.9 Assets held for sale (disposal group) and liabilities associated with them
Accounting policies
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified by the Group as held for sale, if their carrying amount will be recovered by
a sale transaction rather than by continued usage, contingent on their availability for immediate sale in their current condition
and maintaining conditions that are customarily applied in the sale of these assets (or disposal groups) and their sale is highly
probable. A sale is understood as highly probable if the Group is determined to fulfil the plan to sell an asset or a disposal group,
actions were undertaken to actively search for a buyer, an asset is offered at cost, which is rational as compared to its current
fair value, and the Group intends to sell an asset within a year from the classification day. Extension of the period required to
conclude the sale by more than one year is possible only if the delay was caused by events or circumstances outside of the
Group’s control, and the Group itself may prove that it is determined to fulfil the plan to sell an asset.
At the moment of reclassification, these assets are measured at the lower of the following values: the carrying amount or the
fair value decreased by costs to sell. The difference between the measurement at fair value is recognised in other operating
costs. At the moment of later measurement, the potential reversal of fair value is recognised in other operating income.
In the current period, part of the assets of the Sudbury Basin and liabilities associated with them, which in the comparable period
were reclassified to held for sale (disposal groups), were disposed. Details are presented in the information below.
Assets and liabilities of the Sudbury Basin in the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group
In connection to a Share Purchase Agreement which was entered into on 11 September 2024 for the sale of shares of the special
purpose company Project Nikolas Company Inc. by FNX Mining Company Inc. to Magna Mining Inc., the sale transaction of a part
of the assets of the Sudbury Basin, i.e the mines McCreedy West, Levack/Morrison and Podolsky, as well as exploration concessions:
Kirkwood, Falconbridge, NW Foy, Rand and North Range, and liabilities associated with them, was concluded on 28 February 2025.
The agreed purchase price comprised the cash contribution in the amount of CAD 5.3 million at the moment of closure of the
transaction, CAD 2 million deferred to 31 December 2026 as an unconditional cash payment, the acquisition by FNX Mining
Company Inc. of 1 180 705 shares in the company Magna Mining Inc. in the amount of CAD 2 million and conditional payments in
the total maximum amount of up to CAD 24 million.
The profit on the sale in the amount of PLN 70 million was recognised in the item “Other operating income”.

Note 10.1 Inventories
Accounting policies
The Group 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 Group 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 Parent Entity, 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 as a current
maintenance cost of assets are recognized in profit or loss as they are consumed.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
In the consolidated financial statements the volume of those inventories of the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group which arise
from the leaching process, is determined based on the estimated recovery of metal from ore. The nature of the process of
leaching copper from ore limits the precision of monitoring the level of inventories arising during this process. In subsequent
reporting periods, adjustments are made to the estimated recovery of copper from the leaching of ore in a given reporting period
to the level of production achieved in the subsequent period.
As at 31 December 2025 the provisionally-set value of inventories amounted to PLN 9 million (as at 31 December 2024, PLN 21
million).
The Group measures inventories at cost, not higher than the net sales price. The Group determines the net sales price of copper
at the end of the reporting period on the basis of the forward LME (London Metal Exchange) curve for the metal, set for months
in which the sale of copper inventories will be made.

As at 31 December 2025 and in the comparable period, the value of inventories with a maturity of over 12 months was mainly
comprised of stand-by inventories of materials and spare parts to ensure production continuity and packages of spare parts
deposited as part of contractual obligations. Moreover, the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group has an inventory of ore which will
be used in the period of over 12 months.
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).
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.
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.
As at the end of reporting period, these assets are measured at cost less any impairment losses, though no higher than the net
sale price.
Freely acquired, granted by the President of the Energy Regulatory Office, certificates of origin for energy from renewable sources
and 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 based on the current market price.
The subsidy resulting from the receipt of freely acquired property rights to coloured energy is recognised in the statement of profit
or loss as reduction of cost of generating the energy from renewable energy resources at the moment of initial recognition.
The subsidy resulting from the receipt of freely acquired certificates attesting to energy efficiency are recognised as a subsidy to
assets, in deferred income, and is systematically settled 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 Group received the
certificates.
At the end of the reporting period, freely acquired property rights to energy and certificates attesting to energy efficiency are
measured at initial cost less any impairment losses, though no higher than the net sale price.
Measurement of the disposal of property rights and of certificates attesting to energy efficiency are made using the FIFO method.
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.
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 entities of the Group
create a provision in accruals.
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 in which case the receivables are initially recognised at fair value). After initial recognition, trade
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 (ECL). 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 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 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 receivables do
not pass the SPPI contractual cash flow test (solely payments of principal and interest) because of the element of variable
price after the date of initial recognition of the receivables.
Receivables may be measured at fair value both based on the applied M+ pricing formula as well as due to transferral 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 Group 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. Information on currency risk is presented in Note 7.5.1.3.

Note 10.3 Trade and other payables
Accounting policies
Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value less transaction cost and are measured at amortised cost at the
end of the reporting period.
Interest due to repayment of payables at a later date, in particular trade payables within the reverse factoring mechanism, is
recognised in profit or loss, in the item “finance costs”.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
Trade and other payables presented in the statement of financial position also contain trade payables within the reverse factoring
mechanism, which are in the category of “other”.
Moreover, this item also includes intra-group trade payables transferred by the debtor to the factor, for which the debtor received
payment from the factor. At the moment of transfer of the liabilities to reverse factoring, the Parent Entity 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 these transactions, it was necessary
for the Parent Entity to make an important judgment on the presentation of balances of payables transferred to factoring in the
statement of financial position and the presentation of transactions in the statement of cash flows.
In the Parent Entity’s opinion, in presenting the balance of trade payables transferred to reverse factoring as „Trade
and other payables” 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 trade payables 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 Parent Entity’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 Parent Entity and its suppliers. The Parent Entity 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 Parent Entity, 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 Parent Entity 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 Parent Entity 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 Parent Entity and
not directly by the suppliers,
the actual deadline for the payment of trade payables subject to reverse factoring amounts up to 180 days and is longer
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 trade payables within the reverse factoring mechanism are incurred by the Parent Entity, 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 within the reverse factoring mechanism,
the Parent Entity also analysed the statement published in December 2020 by the International Financial Reporting
Interpretations Committee (Committee) on the presentation of transactions within the reverse factoring mechanism in the
statement of financial position and the statement of cash flows. In the Parent Entity’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 Parent Entity. The Committee, recommending the appropriate presentation of
liabilities subject to reverse factoring, indicated the same issues that were analysed and disclosed by the Parent Entity as part of
important judgments above. In particular, in the context of the areas of analysis indicated by the Committee, the Parent Entity
confirms that:
covering the trade payables by the reverse factoring mechanism 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 trade payables within the reverse factoring mechanism 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 mechanism,
the trade payables within the reverse factoring mechanism are part of the working capital used by the unit in the unit’s
regular operating cycle.
The Parent Entity 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 Parent Entity to be insufficient to conclude that when the trade payables was covered by reverse factoring
mechanism, 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 Parent Entity'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 Group in the statement of financial position
under "Trade and other payables ", including those under the "other" category.
Commencing with the annual financial statements published for the year beginning on 1 January 2024, the Group is bound by
amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 on the disclosure of information regarding supplier financing mechanisms. The amendments
to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 do not affect the method of making judgments, including the criteria analysed above regarding the
presentation of trade payables covered by supplier financing programs, because they concern only the disclosure of information
on such programs. However, in order to adapt to the most commonly used names of supplier financing programs in the amended
IAS 7, paragraph 44G, the Group decided to use the name "reverse factoring" as consistent with the nomenclature used in the
IFRS accounting standards and at the same time adequate to the principles of the implemented program. This change is intended
to increase the information value of the financial statements for their users.
*The Company has agreements for the provision of reverse factoring services with financial institutions that are factoring companies or banks.

In 2025, the factors’ total participation limit in the Parent Entity amounted to PLN 5 150 million (as at 31 December 2024 it amounted
to PLN 4 500 million). Group companies do not have agreements for the provision of reverse factoring services. Currently, the
Parent Entity has concluded open-ended agreements for the provision of reverse factoring services with several factors. The cost
of reverse factoring, depending on the terms of the concluded agreements, is at the level of: for PLN - WIBOR 1M + margin, for EUR
- EURIBOR 1M + margin, for USD - Term SOFR 1M/SOFR ON + margin. The reverse factoring program was implemented in 2019 in
order to make it possible for the Parent Entity’s suppliers to receive repayment of receivables faster, as part of the standard
procurement process executed by the Parent Entity, alongside an extension of payment dates of payables by the Parent Entity. In
2025, the Parent Entity transferred to the factors payables in the amount of PLN 5 975 million, and as at 31 December 2025 the

payables within the reverse factoring mechanism (i.e. trade payables paid by the factor) amounted to PLN 2 000 million).
In the current year, payments made towards the factors by the Parent Entity amounted to PLN 6 670 million (in the year ended
31 December 2024, PLN 8 131 million). Interest costs paid by the Group towards the factors in 2025 amounted to PLN 101 million
(in the year ended 31 December 2024, interest costs paid amounted to PLN 164 million).

Note 10.4 Change 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, and partially also from investment activities. Moreover, the Parent Entity, as regards changes in working
capital in the statement of cash flows, presented a separate line “Change in trade payables transferred to reverse factoring” for
the purposes of clear and transparent presentation.
Important estimates, assumptions and judgments
The Parent Entity implemented reverse factoring in the period ended on 31 December 2019 (detailed information may be found in
Note 10.3).
Since market practice with respect to the presentation of reverse factoring transactions in the statement of cash flows
is not uniform, the Management Board had to apply its own judgment in this regard. In the case of these transactions, the Parent
Entity 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 Parent Entity’s view:
presentation of the repayment of the principal amounts of receivables in the trade payables within the reverse factoring
mechanism 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 legal subrogation of
receivables is made by the factor, from a legal standpoint they assume 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 Parent Entity 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 trade payable within the reverse factoring mechanism
is a “Trade and other 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 within the reverse factoring mechanism and
presents them in the statement of financial position as "trade and other 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 Group 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 the date of
settlement for liabilities.
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
(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 Group’s entities 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.
The actuarial assumptions adopted for measurement of employee benefits in the Group reflect the economic relationships
between factors such as inflation, the salary growth rate, the discount rate and the coal price growth rate.
The assumptions used for measurement as at 31 December 2025 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 these financial statements, that is the Projected Unit Credit Method. In order to analyse the 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 result of 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 -17.6% to 23.5% (in the comparable period: from -17.7% to 22.9%).
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 -6.3% to 8.8% (in the comparable period: from -6.2% to 8.6%).

Note 12.3 Other assets
Accounting policies
Receivables not constituting financial assets are initially recognised at nominal value, and at the end of the reporting period they
are measured in the amount receivable.
Investment properties (other than those used under a lease agreement) are measured at initial recognition at cost or cost of sold
product. Initial measurement takes into account transaction costs. Investment properties held by the lessee as a right-to-use
asset are measured at cost in accordance with IFRS 16 Leases. At the end of the reporting period, investment properties, both
owned and held as right-to-use assets, are measured at fair value. A gain or loss resulting from a change in the fair value of
investment properties affects the financial result in the period in which the change occurs and is recognised in other income or
other operating costs, respectively. In the case of reclassification of an item of property, plant and equipment to investment
properties, the surplus of the fair value over the carrying amount of the reclassified item of property, plant and equipment,
determined on the reclassification date, is recognised in other comprehensive income within the revaluation reserve. This surplus
is not subject to reclassification to the financial result in subsequent periods. At the time of disposal of the investment property,
this amount will be transferred to retained earnings, omitting the financial result, in accordance with IAS 40.62.

* The Parent Entity's obligation to provide financial support (cash donations) resulting from agreements concluded with the municipalities of
Polkowice, Rudna and Grębocice, where the "Żelazny Most" Tailings Storage Facility is located. These donations are intended to reduce the
inconvenience resulting from the Company's current operations in the areas of these municipalities as well as to support them in meeting their
needs in the scope of technical, economic and social infrastructure development and relate to events that will or may occur in the coming years. The
agreements specify the maximum amount of support available in each year and the maximum total amount of payments in the years 2025-2036.
Payments are subject to the municipalities preparing applications in accordance with the terms specified in the agreements. The issue of submitting
applications by the municipalities is beyond the Company's control. The municipalities are also required to prepare a report on the expenditure of
the funds received, which is verified by the Parent Entity.
** In 2023, Chilean tax authorities (SII") under the Audit Program “Financial operations with related international companies” commenced the
control procedure against Quadra FNX Holding Chile Limitada, a company within the KGHM INTERNATIONAL LTD. Group (hereafter: Quadra Chile”
or “the Company”) for the financial year 2020. On 30 August 2024, SII issued a decision on imposing a sanction in the amount of PLN 17 million
(USD 4.6 million), as it determined that the amount of costs recognised in profit or loss for 2020 was, in their opinion, not correct. Pursuant to the
Chilean law, the fine is not to be paid until all remedies have been exhausted.
Since Quadra Chile did not agree with SII’s decision, on 15 October 2024 an administrative appeal was filed. The formal response from SII on
rejecting the appeal was received on 24 February 2025. On 3 March 2025 Quadra Chile filed a so-called hierarchical appeal, which was rejected by
the Director of the SII Legal Department in May 2025. Having exhausted its administrative options, on 2 July 2025, the company filed a complaint
with the court, and the legal proceedings remain pending.
On 17 December 2025 the Chilean tax authorities began an audit of the financial year 2022. It is estimated that the fine, together with interest
associated with the audited years 2020 and 2022 will amount to PLN 31.6 million (USD 8.8 million) for which in the current reporting period a PLN
15.8 million (USD 4.4 million) provision has been recognised. The liability has been reclassified from a contingent liability to a provision due to the
increasing advancement of the administrative and legal proceedings and the increasing likelihood of a sanction being imposed.
The financial year 2021 is no longer subject to audit due to the expiry of the statute of limitations. The Company expects that SII may also begin a
control in other unexpired periods (that is: 2023 and 2024) and impose fines of a similar nature, since the method of calculating costs was the same
in this period. The total estimated potential impact of fines, together with interest, for the following years: 2023 (USD 3.8 million), 2024 (USD 3.1
million) amounts in total to PLN 25 million (USD 6.9 million). Liabilities in the above years were recognised as contingent liabilities due to the lack
of initiation of proceedings for the years 2023-2024.
Note 12.7 Litigation and claims
A proceeding pending since 26 September 2007 regarding the payment of royalties for the use of invention project no. 1/97/KGHM
