Dear Shareholders,
On 10 March 2022, the Company's Board of Directors approved the draft financial statements for the year ended of 31 December 2021, which show a profit of Euro 1,169,471,170.
At the same meeting, the Board of Directors approved the consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2021.
With the aim of improving the disclosure of financial and non-financial information made available to stakeholders, and in continuity with what was done in 2020, Atlantia presents for the second year the Group's Annual Integrated Report.
The purpose of the Annual Integrated Report is to provide a comprehensive and transparent representation of the financial and non-financial performance of: Atlantia and the Group as a whole; the context in which they operate; the strategies adopted; the main risks to which they are exposed; and a summary of the corporate governance structure and remuneration policies adopted by the Parent Company.
Furthermore, Atlantia's Annual Integrated Report meets the requirements of Legislative Decree no. 254/2016, which transposes Directive 2014/95/EU in matters of non-financial disclosure, and it features a specific section labelled consolidated Nonfinancial Disclosure (NFD), with a bridging framework facilitating the identification of non-financial disclosures in the document.
It should be stressed that the NFD, which contains information on environmental and social issues concerning personnel, respect for human rights, and the fight against active and passive corruption, is submitted to the General Meeting for information purposes only, given that it is not subject to its approval insofar as it falls under the responsibility of the Board of Directors.
The NFD has been subject to a limited assurance by the auditing company KPMG S.p.A. in accordance with Legislative Decree 254/2016 (Art. 3, paragraph 10).
The Annual Integrated Report for 2021, which includes the draft financial statements for the year ended as of 31 December 2021, the consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2021 with the relevant certifications indicated in Art. 154-bis, paragraph 5, of the Finance Act, and the reports of the Board of Directors on operations, the report of the Board of Statutory Auditors and that of the Auditor of the Accounts, will be made available to the public at the registered office in Piazza di San Silvestro, 8, Rome, on the Company's website (https://www.atlantia.com/en/governance/general-meeting) and on the storage platform (), in accordance with the law.
The Annual Integrated Report has been drawn up, in accordance with the Transparency Directive, in the European Single Electronic Format (ESEF) in line with the principles set out in EU Delegated Regulation 2019/815. However, the report will also be published in PDF format for ease of reading, it being understood that only the ESEF-format version will have legal value.
In view of the foregoing, the Board of Directors asks the General Meeting to adopt the following proposed resolution:
"The Ordinary General Meeting of Atlantia S.p.A.
