33.7. Effect of changes in foreign exchange rates

The functional currency of Orange Polska is the Polish złoty.

Transactions in foreign currencies

Transactions in foreign currencies are converted into Polish złoty at the spot exchange rate prevailing as at the transaction date. Monetary assets and liabilities which are denominated in foreign currencies are re-measured at the end of the reporting period using the period-end exchange rate quoted by National Bank of Poland and the resulting translation differences are recorded in the income statement:

  • in other operating income and expense for commercial transactions,
  • in financial income or finance costs for financial transactions and lease contracts.
