Consolidation packages, reporting, and support for public companies and capital groups

We provide financial consolidation services for public companies and capital groups – both Polish and international. Consolidation and group-level reporting are among the most complex areas of accounting. That’s why we support our clients in preparing consolidation packages, consolidated financial statements, and management reports.

Our financial consolidation services are tailored to meet the expectations of auditors, owners, and stock exchanges. We ensure that all reports are accurate, consistent, and audit-ready.

Consolidation packages (for capital groups)

Consolidation packages and intercompany reconciliation

As part of our financial consolidation services, we support capital groups in preparing standardized reporting packages. These packages are prepared by subsidiaries to allow accurate and efficient consolidation at the parent company level. We help design, implement, and verify them — ensuring consistency across entities and full compliance with group policies.

  • Reporting packages for subsidiaries – in multiple currencies, languages, and standards (e.g. local GAAP, IFRS).
  • Intercompany balances reconciliation – matching receivables and payables between group entities.
  • Consolidation instructions and reporting tools – we create manuals and templates to unify data collection.
  • Elimination adjustments – intercompany revenues, expenses, loans, dividends, and equity.
  • Handling FX differences – based on selected translation methods.
  • Retrospective eliminations and adjustments – e.g. unresolved transactions at reporting date.
  • Full package documentation – aligned with group requirements and audit expectations.

Financial statements consolidation

We deliver end-to-end financial consolidation services — including the preparation of consolidated financial statements. Our work is based on either the Polish Accounting Act or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), depending on group requirements. We adjust the methods and tools to match your organizational structure, data volume, and technical maturity.

  • Consolidation under Accounting Act or IFRS – selecting appropriate methods and ensuring legal compliance.
  • Consolidated financial statements – balance sheet, P&L, cash flow, and equity changes.
  • Different consolidation methods – full, proportional, or equity method, depending on group structure.
  • Manual, semi-automated, or system-based consolidation – from Excel to LucaNet, Hyperion, SAP FC.
  • Automation of processes – especially for groups with many entities and complex data.
  • Input data audit – verifying source data and adjustment accuracy.

Management and investor reporting

As part of our financial consolidation services, we help clients build reporting systems that deliver clarity and consistency. Our reports are tailored for managers, investors, and owners — always based on standardized and consolidated data. The goal is simple: clear insight for better decisions.

  • Standardized reporting sets – for management boards, owners, investors, and private equity funds.
  • Segment analysis – by product line, market, or business unit.
  • IFRS 8 reporting – support in identifying and reporting operating segments.
  • Reclassifications and account mapping – transforming local accounting data into consolidated results.
  • Reports for transactions – due diligence, business valuations, equity or bond issuance.

Support for public companies (WSE, NewConnect)

We provide financial consolidation services tailored to the needs of public companies listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange (WSE) and NewConnect. We support both debuting and experienced issuers in fulfilling their reporting and disclosure obligations — clearly, accurately, and on time.

  • Quarterly, semi-annual, and annual reports – preparation, review, and support during the approval process.
  • Communication with WSE, KNF, auditors, and brokers – content support and coordination of reporting activities.
  • ESEF reporting – technical support with xHTML + iXBRL format and tagging.
  • ESPI/EBI reporting – content creation and end-to-end process management.
  • Non-financial (ESG) reporting – support in preparing initial disclosures aligned with EU guidelines.

Coordination of communication within the group

Effective financial consolidation services require more than just technical expertise. They also involve strong coordination — especially in capital groups with multiple local and international entities. That’s why we take care of the communication, data flow, and standardization needed for smooth consolidation.

  • Collecting data from local and foreign entities – monitoring deadlines, quality, and completeness.
  • Coordination with local accounting firms and CFOs – ensuring clear communication across borders.
  • Data standardization – preparing mappings, translation tables, and conversion procedures (e.g., local GAAP to IFRS).
