PlayWay S.A. formally established a dedicated Audit Committee within its Supervisory Board on October 20, 2017. This corporate governance action was taken in direct compliance with the Polish Act on Statutory Auditors, Audit Firms, and Public Oversight. The appointment marks a transition in the company’s internal oversight structure, as the responsibilities of the Audit Committee were previously managed by the Supervisory Board in its entirety. By forming this specialized body, the company aligns its internal regulatory framework with statutory requirements for public entities listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.
The newly formed committee consists of three members, with Michał Markowski serving as Chairman, supported by Dominik Nowak and Grzegorz Czarnecki. The composition of the committee adheres to specific legal mandates regarding independence and professional qualifications. Specifically, the members meet the criteria defined in the relevant legislation concerning their autonomy from the company and their collective expertise in the industry and financial reporting. This ensures that the committee can effectively perform its duties in monitoring financial reporting processes, internal control systems, and the independence of external auditors.
This administrative change reflects the company's commitment to transparency and rigorous financial oversight during the 2017 fiscal period. While the scope of the announcement is limited to the internal governance of PlayWay S.A., it signifies a maturation of the company’s corporate structure within the Polish gaming sector. The legal basis for this disclosure is rooted in the Act on Public Offering, which requires listed companies to provide timely updates on significant changes to their governing bodies and compliance status.
