This initiative stems from ongoing efforts toward restructuring and transforming the Group into a cohesive, cost-effective entity with a strong position in the European fertilizers, plastics, and OXO product markets. AZOTY BUSINESS aims to establish an integrated, cost-efficient Capital Group with a strong European market position across its Fertilizers, Plastics, and OXO segments. The launch of this Program marks the completion of the initial phase of corrective actions, yielding approximately PLN 350 million in cost savings across the Capital Group from late March to the end of October, through optimized supervisory structures, organizational frameworks, compensation, sponsorships, public relations, and management costs.

On October 31, 2024, following discussions and agreements with banks, Grupa Azoty Polyolefins signed an Amendment Agreement to the Stabilization Agreement dated December 15, 2023, regarding the financing of the Polimery Police project. The parties have agreed to the terms under which financial institutions will continue providing financing for the project during the extended term of the Stabilization Agreement, which now runs until November 29, 2024. The Amendment Agreement was signed with 15 financial institutions.

As of October 23, 2024, Grupa Azoty Polyolefins has produced a total of 200,000 tons of polypropylene. This production milestone was achieved during the testing phase to validate guaranteed parameters at the Polimery Police facility. Polypropylene produced at the newly constructed installations of the Polimery Police Project is available for both direct sales and distribution. Following the conditional interim acceptance of the PP installation and the Terminal Unloading and Storage subproject in July, the Company has full control over its production portfolio, which is being continuously adapted to market conditions.

The Supervisory Board of Grupa Azoty Polyolefins has passed a resolution to remove Wojciech Blew, Acting President of the Company, from the Management Board, effective October 20. The Supervisory Board also resolved to delegate Krzysztof Kołodziejczyk, a Member of the Supervisory Board of Grupa Azoty Polyolefins and Vice President of the Management Board of Grupa Azoty S.A., to temporarily perform the duties of President of the Management Board of Grupa Azoty Polyolefins. This delegation will last until a candidate is selected through the qualification process, but no longer than three months from the resolution's effective date, October 21.

Following discussions and negotiations with banks, Grupa Azoty Polyolefins has signed an Amendment to the Stabilization Agreement dated December 15, 2023, related to the financing of the Polimery Police project. This agreement, which extends financing terms until October 31, was signed with 15 financial institutions.

Grupa Azoty has expanded its portfolio with a new version of RSM®, a popular urea-ammonium nitrate solution, now enhanced with copper, boron, and molybdenum. Importantly, the light blue color of the new RSM® OPTIMA will help farmers easily identify the product’s country of origin, as Grupa Azoty will be the only producer offering RSM® in this color. This measure addresses the challenge of fertilizer imports, which are often of questionable quality; for example, the practice of diluting fertilizer with water results in products that fail to maintain the specified concentration.
