THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE INVOLVED AT THE HEART OF OUR CSR STRATEGY

Meeting of our Executive Committee on 15 march 2024




A recognised CSR performance

In 2023, several of our subsidiaries requested an EcoVadis assessment of their CSR performance.

Thermador Groupe responded to five extra-financial rating questionnaires, some of which came directly from investors.

With the aim of transparency and openness, particularly towards investors and shareholders, Thermador Groupe also participates in conferences dedicated to ESG issues.

Gaïa rating

The extra-financial achievements of Thermador Groupe are recognised by the 'Gaïa-rating' index. Since its launch, we have been among the leaders of this index, which is produced independently by EthiFinance.

In 2023, for the year 2022, we were awarded the gold medal, ranked 7th in our sector (out of 322 companies) and 20th of companies with a turnover above €500m (out of 775 companies).





HUMPACT EMPLOYMENT SCORE

Humpact’s mission is to show that it is possible to combine economic success and just transition in France and Europe. Humpact provides investors with the necessary tools to understand the societal impact of their investments. In 2023, Humpact awarded Thermador Groupe a score of 5 stars out of 5 in recognition of its excellent employment performance.

This is 0.5 more than in 2021 and 2022 thanks to actions carried out in terms of training, youth employment, supply chain and social benefits.

ECOVADIS

In 2023, the corporate social responsibility performance of our subsidiaries was assessed by EcoVadis to promote transparency and trust among our customers and business partners. Ten of our subsidiaries were assessed in 2022 and 2023, reflecting their willingness to engage in an assessment process. Coordination within the Group ensures these performance assessments serve as levers for improvement. (covering 68% of our sales).




Our subsidiaries Odrea and Mecafer Domac respond to the Sedex CSR questionnaire, which is a self-assessment for European companies (non-EU companies are audited) based on documents verifying CSR commitments throughout the supply chain. Sedex helps to map and reduce risks in supply chains. The Sedex questionnaire does not give a score, but proposes an action plan if areas for improvement are identified. The latter is qualified after a new submission.



CDP is an international non-profit organisation that manages the world’s largest environmental database. It is a reporting tool that responds to the growing demand for transparency, and beyond that, provides elements to build a roadmap. This is why we have decided to invest in this rating, for the first time in 2022. Companies are evaluated on the basis of 4 levels (A, B, C, D). We are proud to have achieved a B grade for this first year.



Moody’s ESG Solutions is a unit of Moody’s Corporation that addresses the growing global demand for ESG and climate information. Moody’s ESG Solutions helps assess climate and environmental risk exposure, strengthen sustainability action plans and communicate with key stakeholders. On the basis of the information gleaned in 2020, our first assessment score was 28/100. We have since been working to better comply with their methodology, leading to what we consider a meaningful first step (a score of 44/100) in December 2023 based on 2022 elements. Moody's has not identified any controversies.
