Dear All,

Welcome to Orange Polska’s integrated annual report, in which we present both the financial and non-financial results of our business activities in 2019. Combining all these aspects into one document allows us to show you our performance in a wider context, and discuss how we create value for our various stakeholders at the same time as building a more sustainable business for the long term.

2019 was a very successful year for Orange Polska. We delivered on our financial commitments, and strengthened our confidence that despite numerous challenges we are well on our way to a return to sustainable growth. But an enterprise like ours cannot pursue growth in isolation: our success must also be judged by our relations with employees, our impact on local communities, our contribution to economic development, and of course our impact on the environment.

The Polish economy has grown continuously for the last twelve quarters, and at a much faster pace than the EU average. Strengthened by this growth, Polish enterprises must now reflect on how we operate. It’s time to recognise that being a responsible business means striving to achieve a common goal: development that benefits society as a whole. There can be no economic development without its social and environmental sides, and that should be written into our Company’s DNA.

As we compile this report at the end of the first quarter of 2020, we are in uncharted territory: due to the global pandemic, the world around us suddenly looks very different. We know that the near future will present us with unprecedented challenges. There will be a lot of risks, but hopefully opportunities as well. I would like to assure you that Orange Polska has very strong fundamentals and is already working hard to adapt to this new environment.

Over the past few years, Orange Polska has made great strides towards an integrated way of thinking about our performance and our responsibilities. But we will not rest on our laurels. As we move forward on the path back to growth, during this period of prolonged stress for both our society and our economy, we must set goals in a spirit of sustainable development, and transform our business models into more innovative and sustainable ones.

Jean-François Fallacher

President and CEO of Orange Polska
