Piotr Nielubowicz
CFO, CD Projekt

Good morning. To sum up last year, of course, we had the one major event, and this was the premiere of the extension, Phantom Liberty, that took place at the end of September. This made it possible for us to also publish slightly later in December, the Ultimate Edition, so a version of Cyberpunk with the basic elements of the game and the extension. The extension itself was well-received by the players and by the media.

We have also reached record results in terms of satisfaction of the players from the basic game. According to Steam, the extension premiere allows us to increase revenue from Cyberpunk, Cyberpunk products, so the basic game and the extension. And since 2020, the premiere of the game, this allowed us to have PLN 3 billion in revenue. In total, the revenues of the company for 2023 were PLN 1.23 billion. At the same time, we have managed to get PLN 481 million in profit, and the general income from operational activity was PLN 611 million, which allowed us to accumulate in total financial reserves amounting in form of cash deposits and shares of a value of PLN 1.3 billion.

Which means that we were able to propose to divide some of this profit and to grant a dividend. These are the results from last year, and those results are significantly better than the results in 2022. Of course, this makes us very happy. Thank you very much, and let's go back to the agenda.
