This amount will be used, in particular, to develop the company by: improving the commercial offer, developing sales and optimizing processes and costs," INTERSPORT Polska said in a quarterly report on the Warsaw Stock Exchange (WSE).

The company said that the existence of this agreement conditions the assumption of going concern, despite the negative capital at the middle of this year in the amount of PLN 20.777 million, or EUR 4.669 million.

Nevertheless, a meeting of shareholders is scheduled for September 26, the agenda of which includes a decision to continue the existence of the company in connection with a loss exceeding the amount of additional and reserve capital and one third of the charter capital.
