The Remuneration Policy defines the principles and guidelines which Fine Foods follows when determining the remuneration of the Board of Directors members, Key Management Personnel, and without prejudice to Art. 2402 of the Italian Civil Code, members of the control bodies. It also covers the policy procedures used for its adoption and implementation.
The Remuneration Policy is defined by a process involving the Board of Directors, Remuneration and Nomination Committee, the Shareholders' Meeting and Board of Statutory Auditors. The Board of Directors, Board of Statutory Auditors and Remuneration and Nomination Committee are responsible for the Remuneration Policy correct implementation and ensure that it is adequately implemented.
Below is a brief description of the tasks assigned to these bodies for the remuneration of Directors under applicable law and the Company's Articles of Association.
The Environment, Social and Governance Committee has been established. Its task is to assist the Board of Directors with investigations, providing proposals and consultancy in assessments and decisions on sustainability issues within the Board of Directors' responsibility. The Committee strengthens the link between remuneration policies and Fine Foods' sustainability strategy.
The Shareholders' Meeting:
The Board of Directors:
Auditors. This may be within the overall compensation set by the Shareholders' Meeting. Additionally, the Board assigns the Directors the fixed annual remuneration as office indemnity, decided by the Shareholders' Meeting;
The Board of Directors, supported by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee, monitors the Remuneration Policy correct implementation.
The Committee currently in office was appointed by the Board of Directors on 21 April 2021 (following the appointment by the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting, on the same date, of the new governing body), and comprises two Independent Directors with expertise in financial matters or remuneration policies.
| Name and surname | Position | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ada Imperadore | Chairperson - Independent Director | ||||
| Susanna Pedretti | Independent Director |
At their appointment, and at least once a year, the Board of Directors confirmed that the independent Directors Ada Imperadore and Susanna Pedretti met adequate knowledge and expertise in financial matters, and remuneration policies experience requirements.
The Remuneration and Nomination Committee carries out the following consultation tasks:
incentive plans, etc.), upon Chairperson of the Board of Directors instructions. To do so, it uses the information provided by CEOs, and formulates proposals to the Board of Directors on the matter;
d. examining in advance the annual report on the remuneration policy and compensation, available to the public under applicable legislation.
Establishing the Remuneration and Nomination Committee guarantees the broadest possible information and transparency on the remuneration due to Executive Directors and Key Management Personnel and its definition methods. Under Art. 2389, paragraph 3 of the Italian Civil Code, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee only makes suggestions, while the power to set Executive Directors' remuneration remains with the Board of Directors after hearing the opinion of the Board of Statutory Auditors.
The conduct of Remuneration and Nomination Committee meetings is governed by the following organisational rules (contained in the Committee Regulation approved by the Board of Directors on 21 April 2021):
In 2023, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee met twice (average meeting duration of 30 minutes) on remuneration matters. The attendance percentage of Committee members at meetings is shown in the table no. 3 at the end of Section 6 of the Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure, available on the Company's website www.finefoods.it, "Governance" section.
The Board of Statutory Auditors participated in the Committee works.
During 2023, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee's activities mainly concerned:
review and verification of the adequacy of the documentation filed at the Company's registered office to verify the Independent Directors' independence requirements (27 March 2023 meeting);
prior review of the Report on Remuneration Policy and compensation for 2023 (27 March 2023 meeting).
During the current financial year, on 26 March 2024 the Committee has held a meeting dedicated to analysing this Report for subsequent approval by the Board of Directors. At that meeting, the Committee approved the final report on (i) the short-term incentive plans for 2023 for executive Directors and the Key Manager; (ii) the mediumand long-term variable compensation resolved by the Board of Directors on 29 June 2022 in favour of the Chief Executive Officer, Giorgio Ferraris and the Key Manager.
The Board of Statutory Auditors expresses its opinion on the remuneration proposals for Executive Directors, under Art. 2389, paragraph 3 of the Italian Civil Code, verifying the consistency of the proposals with the Company Remuneration Policy.
Under Art. 123-ter, paragraph 8-bis of the TUF, the Fine Foods auditing company verifies that the Directors have prepared Section II of the Report.
Given the small number of functions involved by the Remuneration Policy, at the Report's date the Company decided not to include external consultants in the Policy definition.
Under Art. 123-ter, paragraph 3-bis of the TUF and Art. 84-quater of the Issuers' Regulations, Fine Foods reserves the right to derogate temporarily from its Remuneration Policy for exceptional circumstances. Exceptional circumstances are those situations in which derogating from the Remuneration Policy is necessary to pursue the Company long-term interests and sustainability or ensure its ability to stay in the market. For example (i) national or international extraordinary and unforeseeable events concerning the Group, sectors or markets in which it operates, which may significantly affect the Group's results; (ii) substantial changes in the organisation of the Group's business, which can be objective (such as extraordinary transactions, mergers, disposals, etc.) or subjective (such as changes in the top management).
If the conditions are met, the Board of Directors, upon the Remuneration and Nomination Committee's advice, without prejudice to the Company Related Party Regulation and Procedure, where applicable, may derogate temporarily from the Remuneration Policy in the circumstances identified above. Such exceptions may concern the modification or replacement of performance objectives and quantitative parameters related to remuneration, and the following elements:
The Remuneration Policy ensures an overall remuneration structure that recognises the managerial value of those involved and their skill-based contribution to Company growth. The annual Remuneration Policy establishes remuneration that meets the following requirements:
The Remuneration Policy, in line with the general purposes explained above, is based on the following principles and criteria:
Under the principles outlined above, the Company will recommend that the Shareholders' Meeting of 29 May 2024 approves this document.
The Remuneration Policy requires the fixed and variable components (the latter must be divided into short- and medium-long-term variable components) are expressed according to different principles and methods related to the different types of recipients.
On 21 April 2021, the Company's Board of Directors identified the Key Management Personnel considering their positions and roles within the Group.
However, the Company decided to distinguish the remuneration structure based on the executive/managerial skills and responsibilities of those concerned, and define the criteria to identify the remuneration independently for the following:
All Directors are entitled to a fixed compensation adequate for the Directors activity and commitment, based on Company size and the sector.
The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting establishes the overall gross remuneration payable to Directors, which is divided among Board members as decided by the Board.
Article 2389 of the Civil Code, third paragraph, first sentence, applies when defining the remuneration of Directors vested with specific powers, including those holding special offices, or the office of Chairperson and CEO. Their remuneration is defined by the Board of Directors, after consulting with the Board of Statutory Auditors, in compliance with any limits set by the Shareholders' Meeting. The Shareholders' Meeting can directly define the Chairperson and CEO remuneration, including Board Committee members.
Non-executive Directors (whether they are independent Directors or not) are granted a fixed remuneration defined by the Shareholders' Meeting, allocated on an individual basis by the Board of Directors, under Art. 2389 of the Italian Civil Code.
The remuneration of these Directors is unlinked to Company financial results or specific objectives. It is proportionate to the commitment required, based on participation in board committees, for which specific remuneration is provided.
The remuneration of executive directors is adequately balanced to ensure consistency between short-term development objectives and the sustainability of value creation for shareholders in the medium-long term.
The Executive Directors' remuneration structure consists of a fixed and a variable component, the latter of shortand long-term duration, identified as follows:
pursue sustainable success, established by the Board of Directors upon the Remuneration and Nomination Committee proposal or opinion. The short-term variable component promotes the achievement of annual business objectives and rewards individual performance for specific goals and areas or annual business performance objectives typically related to the accomplishment of economic-financial parameters, adjusted or calculated on a like-for-like basis, referring to EBITDA, EBIT, NFP, pre-tax profit, net profit, cash flow, gross margin, turnover, and key performance indicators, M&A, other business plan objectives, pursuit of sustainable success or stock market value per share, as identified by the Board of Directors, calculated considering the Company individually or including its subsidiaries, at the Board of Directors' discretion.
The variable component is expected to represent a significant part of total remuneration.
For a description of the short-term remuneration variable and long-term components for executive Directors, see Paragraph 3.3.
Members of the Board of Statutory Auditors will receive an adequate fixed remuneration for the Auditors activity and commitment, in line with the practices of listed companies in the Euronext Milan segment with capitalisation levels comparable to Fine Foods.
When defining the Remuneration Policy for Key Management Personnel, it is necessary to consider that they are the recipients of a Policy where part of the remuneration is linked to achieving performance objectives, some of which are non-financial. These are predetermined, measurable and linked to a long-term period. They are consistent with the Company's strategic objectives and promote its sustainable success (Art. 5, recommendation 27 of the Corporate Governance Code).
The remuneration of Key Management Personnel consists of a gross annual fixed remuneration and a short-term and a long-term variable remuneration, identified as follows:
objectives and rewards individual performance for specific goals and areas or annual business performance objectives typically related to the accomplishment of economic-financial parameters, adjusted or calculated on a like-for-like basis, referring to EBITDA, EBIT, NFP, pre-tax profit, net profit, cash flow, gross margin, turnover, and key performance indicators, M&A, other business plan objectives, pursuit of sustainable success or stock market value per share, as identified by the Board of Directors, calculated considering the Company individually or including its subsidiaries, at the Board of Directors' discretion.
At the Report's approval date, Pietro Bassani was the only Key Manager identified.
For a description of the short-term variable component and long-term variable component for Key Management Personnel, please refer to Paragraph 3.3.
The Fine Foods variable remuneration system provides for a short-term variable component (MBO) and a mediumlong term variable component (LTIP).
The annual incentive system provides for the payment of a monetary bonus based on predefined annual objectives. This system is reviewed annually by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee, which proposes to the Board of Directors the objectives for Executive Directors and Key Management Personnel and identifies the metrics.
The system recipients are the Executive Directors and Key Management Personnel.
Each recipient is assigned a target variable bonus expressed as a percentage of the fixed remuneration if the preset target objectives are achieved. A maximum value is provided when exceeding the targets.
The right to receive the variable bonus is conditional on achieving a minimum results threshold compared to the pre-set company objectives. This minimum threshold will be defined annually by the Board of Directors.
The short-term incentive system includes a claw-back clause, as required by Recommendation 27 of the Corporate Governance Code. This allows the Company to request the complete or partial return of variable remuneration (or retain components subject to deferral) which allocation was based on data or information that subsequently prove to be incorrect or due to the recipient's fraudulent conduct or gross negligence.
If extraordinary events cause performance-exceeding scenarios, the Company Board of Directors, on the Remuneration and Nomination Committee proposal, may make the necessary adjustments to these objectives to maintain the plan's actual and financial content. "Extraordinary events" means: (i) events which are extraordinary or non-recurring or not attributable to the typical Fine Foods Group business (including, but not limited to, significant acquisitions or sales of shareholdings or business units) which are significant and/or currently unforeseen as part of corporate planning that entail a significant change in the Company or the Fine Foods Group perimeters; (ii) significant changes in the macroeconomic or competitive scenario or other extraordinary events which have a significant impact outside of management's control; or (iii) significant adverse effects that are not only economic or financial, such the Covid-19 health emergency. Any changes made to the performance objectives shall safeguard the principles and guidelines used to formulate the plan without introducing undue advantages or penalties either for the plan recipients or the Company.
For Executive Directors, the variable bonus is established annually up to 100% of the fixed component (as a Director) for the Chief Executive Officer and other Executive Directors, determined during the budget preparation, subject to pre-established target objectives. If several variable bonuses are provided annually, the above percentages will be applied to the total variable remuneration due.
One or more of the following indicators shall be used as Company performance indicators, adjusted or calculated on a like-for-like basis where appropriate: (i) EBITDA, EBIT, NFP, pre-tax profit, net profit, cash flow, gross margin, turnover; (ii) key performance indicators (iii) M&A; (iv) other business plan targets; (v) pursuit of sustainable success; or stock market value per share, as identified by the Board of Directors, calculated considering the Company individually or including its subsidiaries, at the Board of Directors' discretion. For the above parameters, the Company's targets also concern the Company's budget. An increasing or decreasing multiplier may be applied to calculate the final bonus depending on the target objectives.
For Key Management Personnel, the short-term variable component is calculated according to different principles for any other figures that may qualify as Executives based on responsibilities and target objective achievement and is expressed as a fixed component maximum percentage which increases according to the role held and responsibility range.
For Key Management Personnel, the variable bonus is established annually up to 100% of the fixed component (fixed remuneration as Key Management Personnel) on the condition that the pre-set target objectives are achieved.
One or more of the following indicators shall be used as Company performance indicators, adjusted or calculated on a like-for-like basis where appropriate: (i) EBITDA, EBIT, NFP, pre-tax profit, net profit, cash flow, gross margin, turnover; (ii) key performance indicators (iii) M&A; (iv) other business plan targets; (v) pursuit of sustainable success; or (vi) stock market value per share, as identified by the Board of Directors, calculated considering the Company individually or including its subsidiaries, at the Board of Directors' discretion. For the above parameters, the Company's targets also concern the Company's budget. An increasing or decreasing multiplier may be applied to calculate the final bonus depending on the target objectives.
The Chief Executive Officer and Key Manager will receive a three-year medium-long term bonus for the 2024-2026 financial years which includes the payment of a monetary bonus at the end of this performance period, based on the achievement of set objectives. This incentive plan is linked to two cumulative economic and financial performance indicators: consolidated EBITDA and Fine Foods shares stock market value.
There are different performance levels for each of the selected indicators. When achieved, a specific percentage of the relevant bonus is granted, ranging from a minimum of 50% to a maximum of 100%.
The maximum cumulative value of the bonuses is equal to:
The best market practice key clauses shall apply, such as claw-back, and those governing employment early termination or extraordinary and unforeseen events.
Executive Directors are granted standard non-monetary benefits (e.g., mobile phone, car, guesthouse, computer).
Governing and control bodies members benefit from D&O insurance to cover liability arising from the exercise of their office.
Key Management Personnel are granted non-monetary benefits in line with practice, position, and role (e.g., use of mobile phone, car, guesthouse, computer, insurance coverage such as D&O).
There are no agreements with Directors, CEOs, and Key Management Personnel for office or employment termination payments This is without prejudice to legal or national collective agreement obligations.
Agreements may be stipulated with Directors or Key Management Personnel to regulate ex-ante the financial aspects in case of office termination or employment early termination at the Company or person concerned initiative.
Non-competition agreements under applicable law may be stipulated with Executive Directors, Key Management Personnel, and professional figures with strategic knowledge, for whom such a restriction is necessary.
The Chief Executive Officer shall assume a non-competition commitment as of the expiration of his term of office under applicable legal provisions and limits.
This Section is divided into two:
This Section is subject to a non-binding vote by the Shareholders' Meeting under Art. 123-ter of the TUF (updated under Legislative Decree no. 49 of 10 May 2019) which, in paragraph 6, states: "Without prejudice to the provisions [...] the Shareholders' Meeting convened [...] shall resolve in favour or against the second Section of the report provided for in paragraph 4.
