1. ISSUER PROFILE

1.1. Corporate governance system

The corporate governance structure of Neodecortech follows the traditional management and control model set out in Articles 2380-bis et seq. of the Italian Civil Code, in which, without prejudice to the mandatory powers of the Shareholders' Meeting:

the Board of Directors has sole responsibility for the administrative and strategic governance of the Company in order to achieve the corporate object;¹
the Board of Statutory Auditors is responsible for overseeing compliance with the law and the Bylaws, compliance with the principles of proper governance and, specifically, the adequacy of the Company's organizational, administrative and accounting structure²;
the statutory audit of the Issuer's accounts is carried out by an independent audit firm listed in the relevant register³.

The Board of Directors carries out its activity both directly and collectively, by delegating part of its functions, within the limits allowed by law and by the Bylaws, to the Chief Executive Officer, as well as to one or more directors with specific management powers⁴.

Also set up within the Board of Directors are:

the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, which acts as Remuneration Committee, pursuant to Recommendations no. 25 and 26 of the Corporate Governance Code, and as Appointments Committee, pursuant to Recommendations no. 19 and 20 of the Corporate Governance Code⁵;
the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee, with internal control and risk management functions, pursuant to Recommendations no. 32, 33 and 35 of the Corporate Governance Code; this Committee, inter alia, also submits proposals and provides advice to the Board of Directors on the periodic update on the changes in corporate governance rules, and on activities aimed at overseeing the Issuer's commitment to sustainable development along the value chain⁶;
the Related Party Committee, governed on the basis of the Related Party Procedure, which is entrusted with the functions and tasks provided for by the same Related Party Procedure and by the RPT Regulation⁷;

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

The Issuer qualifies as SME under Article 1, paragraph 1, letter w-quater.1) of the TUF and Article 2-ter of the Issuer Regulation, as the capitalization recorded on 31 December 2025 is € 54,312,840, and it did not exceed the thresholds set by the mentioned provisions on 31 December 2024 and 31 December 2025.

The Issuer does not fall under the definition of a "large company" as per the Corporate Governance Code, as the company's capitalization on the last trading day of each of the three calendar years prior to the year under review was under € 1 billion.

The Issuer falls within the definition of "concentrated ownership company", pursuant to the definition provided by the Corporate Governance Code, given the presence of a shareholder who holds the majority of votes that can be exercised at the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting of the Company.

1.2. The Neodecortech Group and its mission

At the date of the Report, the Issuer is controlled pursuant to Article 93 of the TUF by Finanziaria Valentini, which holds 58.6% of Neodecortech's share capital.

Neodecortech is at the head of a Group that supplies a wide and coordinated range of products in the field of decor surfaces, i.e. decorative surfaces for the furniture and laminate flooring segments, as well as plastic film (PVC and PET), both nationally and internationally. Specifically, the Issuer, under the Confalonieri and Texte brands as well as through its subsidiary Lamitex, is one of the top European players in the niche of design and production of decorative surfaces on paper-based media used in the interior design and flooring industry. Under the Plana brand, it also launched similar surfaces on a plastic substrate.

The Group's main business is, therefore, in the production of complete and technologically advanced solutions for the realization of interior design projects, covering all stages of the production process for the creation of decorative paper, from raw material management, through surface finishing and impregnation, up to the finished product and the management of end-of-line logistics. As for the use of plastic film, on the other hand, the phases of the production process result in the printing of the film and/or subsequent embossing, lacquering and lamination.

1.3. Social responsibility

The Group believes in the value of sustainability and responsible business management and, in addition to complying with legal requirements, promotes a corporate culture oriented towards the creation of lasting value for its stakeholders. Neodecortech operates responsibly, adopting a business model in which sustainability is one of the main drivers of a strategy oriented to the medium and long term and focused on excellence, efficiency in resource management and ongoing improvement of all forms of performance, both process and product. In compliance with Principle I of the Corporate Governance Code, the integration of business sustainability into the corporate strategy, remuneration policies and the internal control and risk management system, as well as the management of environmental, social and governance (ESG) aspects, are the direct responsibility of the Issuer's Board of Directors, which defines the sustainability strategy assisted by the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee (which has the task, among others, of proposing a guideline that integrates sustainability into business processes in order to ensure the creation of sustainable value over time) and which operates assisted by the Group's HSE (Health, Safety and Environment) department.

The guiding element of the Company's business model, marked by a holistic, tangible approach that is mindful of the legitimate expectations of stakeholders, rests on the Code of Ethics, source of the corporate culture that embodies the commitments and ethical responsibilities of the Neodecortech Group in the conduct of

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

business and corporate activities and defines the set of values and principles, as well as the lines of conduct, which must be adopted by the Company's directors, by all persons bound by working relationships with the Company and, in general, by all those who work for the Company, regardless of the relationship that binds them to it.

The Code of Ethics is therefore periodically reviewed in order to verify that it is up-to-date with the issues relevant to the Neodecortech Group.

Additionally, the Neodecortech Group, in defining its approach to sustainability, is inspired by the most authoritative international initiatives, such as the Global Compact and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations.

Neodecortech believes that the utmost respect for human dignity in all its forms and the protection of the physical and moral health of workers, the protection of the environment in which it operates and the promotion of ethics and transparency in all relationships are fundamental features. The policies, management models and internal codes the Group has adopted are a tangible sign of this approach.

Consistent with the above, the Group strives to:

conduct business with fairness and transparency towards all its stakeholders, through rules of conduct, audit tools and internal procedures capable of ensuring compliance with national and international laws and regulations applicable thereto, adopting, in particular, Model 231. Legality and fairness in business dealings, in fact, have always been considered by Neodecortech the cornerstones to develop and maintain long-lasting relationships with its stakeholders, based on respect and mutual trust;
ensure the wellbeing and enhance the skills of its human resources through training programs and professional growth paths, encouraging their active involvement in the process of ongoing improvement within the Group. Neodecortech believes that quality training is a prerequisite to enable people to develop cross skills, update their professional competencies and operate safely, effectively and efficiently, in compliance with the relevant regulations. This approach has been extended to the children of employees graduating from high school or university. An annual scholarship program has been established for the most worthy;
guarantee equal opportunities, rejecting any form of discrimination. Neodecortech considers diversity an element of corporate wealth and is committed to ensuring that it never represents a discriminatory element in personnel selection or in the professional growth of its employees;
protect the safety and health of human resources and local stakeholders, in full compliance with current regulations. Neodecortech promotes responsible and informed behaviour among its employees so that they pay the utmost attention to their own health and safety. Additionally, thanks to effective implementation of its ISO 45001:2018 certified Management Systems, it identifies and monitors possible risks related to normal and extraordinary activities in the workplace, with the aim of preventing accidents and injuries. The Group's performance involving occupational health and safety indicators has shown a positive trend over time, proof of Neodecortech's commitment to health and safety prevention and protection;
protect the environment, promoting virtuous behaviour and the informed and responsible use of the natural resources available, in order to gradually improve environmental performance. The

Group is committed to minimizing its direct and indirect environmental impacts, encouraging the use of alternative energy sources with reduced environmental impact and through the adoption and maintenance of ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management Systems and ISO 50001:2018 Energy Management Systems;

implement sustainable procurement policies, envisaging in its activity an increasingly far-reaching adoption of circular economy initiatives. Neodecortech is well aware of the importance of biodiversity and has set itself the goal of limiting the impacts generated by its supply chain as much as possible. In this regard, the Group confirms its commitment to using exclusively $FSC^{\text{®}}$ Chain Of Custody certified pulp and paper from responsibly managed forests, as well as using approximately 25% recycled and waste paper, a proportion that has increased in recent years. As far as the use PVC and plastic materials is concerned, Neodecortech promotes a careful and conscious use of these materials, as well as delivering all the waste produced during production to recycling centres. In the specific case of PET used, 70% is obtained from recycled material. As far as packaging is concerned, the Group has put in place for some time now a policy aimed at using packaging made from recycled material or that can be recycled and/or reused. In 2025, the percentage of certified recycled packaging used was 94% (93% in 2024). Lastly, with regard to the production of electricity and steam, which are primary elements in the production of paper in the subsidiary CDG, there is almost total supply of electricity through BEG, which uses as fuels bioliquids obtained from the processing of animal by-products, which would otherwise have to be treated as waste and vegetable oils, all of which have sustainability certification. All the steam obtainable from BEG's thermal waste is used in CDG, except for the steam, which is negligible, needed for power plant uses; the steam transferred by BEG covers approximately 30% of CDG's steam requirements. The use of fuel at BEG results in lower emissions in terms of tonnes of CO2 released into the atmosphere. With the aim of decreasing the use of energy from fossil sources, NDTe was established in October 2022. Its mission is to use the waste and scrap from the production of laminate at the Neodecortech plant in Casoli di Atri (TE) through a cogeneration plant to ensure its almost total thermal independence. At the Casoli plant, the installation of a photovoltaic system of approximately 500 Kwh was completed in the latter part of 2022, which subsequently went into operation in January 2023. As the same system installed at the Filago (BG) plant in 2012, it helps achieve approximately 20% of electrical independence.
maintain an open, transparent and trust-based dialogue with the local communities in which it operates and with all its stakeholders. Neodecortech considers itself a resource and source of opportunity for the territory, and collaborates to achieve shared objectives with local authorities and institutions, offering the utmost willingness to engage in dialogue and discussion with the communities and territories where the Group companies are located.

Beginning in 2022 (with regard to the year ending 31 December 2021), Neodecortech reports annually on its management process through a comprehensive and transparent presentation of its commitments, associated corporate objectives, and performance. This is done by voluntarily preparing the non-financial statement (NFS), following the guidelines issued by the Global Reporting Initiative and in line with the GRI Standards. The documents are available on the Company website at www.neodecortech.it/investors/investor-relations/bilanci-e-relazioni/.

(v) the Issuer operates in full negotiating autonomy in its dealings with customers and suppliers, without any external interference from Finanziaria Valentini.

At the date of this Report, it should also be noted that: (i) there are no acts, resolutions or notices of Finanziaria Valentini that could reasonably lead to believe that the Issuer's decisions are the result of an imposing and binding will of the parent company; (ii) the Issuer does not receive from Finanziaria Valentini cash pooling services or other financial assistance or coordination functions; (iii) the Issuer is not subject to regulations or policies imposed by Finanziaria Valentini.

Moreover, the lists that contain 3 (three) or more candidates shall include candidates of different gender, as provided for in the notice of call of the Meeting, so as to allow the Board of Directors to be composed in accordance with the provisions on gender balance set out in the legal and regulatory provisions in force from time to time and in the Corporate Governance Code.

Each list shall be filed together with (i) information on the identity of the shareholders who have submitted the list and the overall percentage of share capital held; (ii) the professional curricula of each candidate, containing detailed information on personal (including gender) and professional details, as well as an indication of the management and supervisory positions held; (iii) the statements that each candidate accepts the nomination and states, under his/her own responsibility, that there are no reasons for his/her incompatibility or ineligibility, and that he/she complies with the requirements set out by law in force for

holding the office of director; (iv) the independence statements issued in compliance with the applicable legal and regulatory provisions.

Pursuant to and for the purposes of Article 2383 of the Italian Civil Code, the appointment is, in any case, preceded by the submission of a statement by each person concerned, that there are no grounds for ineligibility as envisaged by Article 2382 of the Italian Civil Code, and that no disqualification from holding the office of director has been imposed against him/her in an EU Member State.

In order to prove the entitlement to submit lists, reference shall be made to the number of Shares registered in favour of the shareholder on the day when the lists are filed with the Company. In order to prove the ownership of the number of shares required to submit the lists, the shareholders who participate in the submission of the lists shall submit or have delivered to the registered office a copy of the relevant certification issued by the intermediary authorized by law, which proves the ownership of the number of shares required to submit the list at the time of filing with the Company. The notice certifying ownership of said stake - issued by an authorized intermediary - may be received by the Company also after the filing of the lists, provided that it is received at least 21 (twenty-one) days before the date of the Shareholders' Meeting.

Lists which are submitted in breach of the above provisions are deemed not to have been submitted. Each shareholder may vote for one list only.

The Bylaws do not envisage for the outgoing Board of Directors to submit a list. Members of the Board of Directors are elected as follows:

(i) all the directors to be elected except one shall be taken from the most-voted list ("Majority List"), in the sequential order appearing in the list;

(ii) the remaining director shall be taken from the most-voted minority list that was submitted by shareholders who are not connected in any way, not even indirectly, with the shareholders who submitted or voted the most-voted list.

For the purpose of the allocation of the directors to be elected, no account shall be taken of the lists that have not obtained a percentage of votes equal to at least half of the percentage required by the Bylaws for the majority of the lists. If no list other than the Majority List obtains this percentage of votes, the Director referred to in point (ii) shall be drawn from the Majority List. In the event of a tie between lists, the list submitted by shareholders holding the largest stake, or secondarily, by the highest number of shareholders, shall prevail. If only one list is submitted, the Board of Directors shall be composed of all the candidates on the single list.

If the candidates elected according to the abovementioned procedures do not ensure the appointment of the required number of Directors belonging to the less represented gender or the minimum number of Independent Directors required by law, depending on the number of members of the Board of Directors in compliance with the law in force at the time, the candidate elected as last in sequential order in the most-voted list shall be replaced with the first candidate - depending on the case - of the less represented gender and/or independent according to the sequential order in which they were listed, or, failing that, with the candidate - depending on the case - of the less represented gender and/or independent not elected from the other lists according to the sequential order in which they were listed, based on the number of votes obtained by each of them.

This procedure shall be applied until the composition of the Board of Directors complies with the regulations in force at the time. Lastly, if this procedure does not ensure the specified outcome, the replacement shall be implemented by means of a resolution of the Shareholders' Meeting, approved with a relative majority and following the submission of candidates who comply with the necessary requirements.

If no list is submitted or admitted, the Shareholders' Meeting shall resolve with the majorities required by law, without complying with the abovementioned procedure, so as to ensure the presence of the required number of directors who meet the independence requirements set out by law and compliance with applicable legislation in force at the time on gender balance. The list voting procedure applies only in case of appointment of the entire Board of Directors. The Issuer is not subject to further regulations regarding the composition of the Board of Directors, specifically with regard to the representation of minorities and/or the number and characteristics of directors.

If, during the Year, one or more directors cease to hold office for any reason whatsoever, provided that the majority is still made up of directors appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting, the Board of Directors shall replace them by co-opting candidates with the same qualifications, appointing, according to the sequential order, candidates belonging to the list from which the directors ceased to hold office were drawn, provided that such candidates are still eligible and willing to accept the office.

In any case, the Board of Directors shall replace the Directors who have ceased to hold office so as to ensure (i) the presence of the required number of Directors who meet the independence requirements set out by law and (ii) compliance with the applicable legislation in force at the time on gender balance.

If, for any reason, the majority of Directors appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting falls vacant, the entire Board shall be deemed to have resigned and the Shareholders' Meeting shall be convened without delay by the Directors still in office in order to reconstitute the Board.

4.3.1. Diversity criteria and policies in the Board composition and corporate organization

Under Article 20 of the Bylaws, the composition of the Board of Directors is required to ensure a balance between the male and female genders and that the lesser represented gender obtain at least one elected director.

With regard to the current composition of the Board of Directors, it should be noted that the Directors have a background covering economic, legal, financial and management subjects, as well as those more specifically related to the business of the Company and the Group.

The Company's objective is therefore to ensure the adequacy of the composition of its Board of Directors in terms of gender representation, as well as the skills and professional qualities of its members. With particular regard to gender diversity, it should be noted that at the date of this Report, 3 out of 7 Directors belong to the least represented gender, in compliance with the law.

While the Company has not adopted diversity policies in relation to the composition of its management and administrative bodies, the current composition of the Board of Directors is adequately diversified in terms of age, gender and educational and professional background, as shown by the Directors' curricula. Therefore, this aspect is adequately covered.

With regard to diversity, the current composition of the Company's corporate bodies is as follows: (i) the Board of Directors includes 3 female directors out of 7 (representing 42.86% of the total, while 57.14% of the directors are male); (ii) the Board of Statutory Auditors is composed of 2 women (including the Chair) and 1 man (66.66% of the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors are female and 33.34% are male); (iii) with regard to age, the directors are between 46 and 66 years old; specifically, no. 5 directors (i.e. 71.43% of the total) are between 60 and 67 years of age, while no. 2 directors (i.e. 28.57% of the total) are between 46 and 55 years of age; (iv) the directors are of Italian nationality but also have international experience; (v) in terms of professional background, the members include individuals from the fields of finance, retail - including international retail - senior management, university professors in economic disciplines and lawyers.

Diversification makes the decision-making process more effective and exhaustive, and allows for deeper interaction within the corporate bodies, leveraging on the different skills and experiences gained by the Directors. In order to promote, develop and preserve diversity, fairness and inclusion, as well as to enhance human capital, and in order to implement the principles set out in the Code of Ethics - available on the Company website, Download/Policy section - the Issuer adopted a "Diversity and inclusion policy", which applies to employees, associates and, in general, to all those who work with the Company. This policy is intended to guarantee equal opportunities and illustrates the initiatives that the Issuer implements to protect diversity in the various aspects related to personnel management policies. The document is communicated and disseminated within the company organization and made available on the website, "Downloads/Policy" section.

4.3.2. Maximum number of positions held in other companies

On 30 March 2023, in accordance with the requirements of the Corporate Governance Code, the Directors shared their views on the maximum number of directorships and supervisory positions in other listed or significant companies that are compatible with the effective performance of the role of director of Neodecortech.

According to these views:

in addition to the office held in the Company, an executive director should not hold (i) the office of executive director in another company listed on a regulated market or on a multilateral trading system, in Italy or abroad, or in a financial, banking or insurance company, (ii) the office of non-executive director or statutory auditor in more than three of the abovementioned companies;
in addition to the office held in the Company, a non-executive director should not hold (i) the office of executive director in more than one other company listed on a regulated market or on a multilateral trading facility, or in more than two financial, banking or insurance companies or companies with equity exceeding € 5 billion, (ii) the office of non-executive director or of statutory auditor in more than five of the abovementioned companies.

Offices held in Group companies shall be excluded from the limit of maximum number of positions held.

The composition of the Board of Directors at the date of this Report complies with the above general criteria.

4.3.3. Quantitative and qualitative criteria for assessing the significance of business, financial, or professional relationships that may compromise a director's independence

In accordance with Recommendation no. 7 of the Corporate Governance Code, Neodecortech's Board of Directors, at its meeting held on 29 April 2025, established quantitative and qualitative criteria for assessing the significance of relationships, including business relationships, that may compromise the independence of Directors (the "Significance Criteria" or the "Criteria").

In establishing the Significance Criteria, the Board of Directors has, among other things, taken account of the recommendations set forth in the Code and the clarifications provided in the compilation "Q&A functional to the application of the Corporate Governance Code - 2020 edition" published on the website of the Corporate Governance Committee.

With regard to quantitative aspects, a director who has or has had during the year prior to the assessment, directly or indirectly (for instance through subsidiaries or companies of which he/she is a significant

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

representative, or as partner of a professional firm or consulting company) financial, commercial or professional relations with: (i) the Company, its subsidiaries, the entity that controls the Company, and companies subject to common control; (ii) the relevant Executive Directors or top management; (together, the "Relevant Persons") if such relationships have entailed, individually or cumulatively considered, an annual economic recognition of more than 50,000 euros and therefore are to be considered capable of compromising the Director's independence.

Mention should also be made that, where relations with Relevant Persons are held by the Director indirectly, existing relations or relations held during the previous three years which, individually or cumulatively, have entailed a monetary compensation of more than € 70,000 per annum, shall normally be considered significant.

In the event that the Director is also a partner in a professional firm or a consulting company, the professional relationships of the firm and/or the consulting company with the Relevant Subjects that (i) may have an effect with regard to the Director's position or role within the professional firm or consulting firm; or (ii) are otherwise part of major transactions involving the Company and the group it heads also qualify as significant - regardless of the above quantitative criteria and in view of the overall activities carried out by the Director and the tasks normally assigned.

For the purposes of the above, it should be noted that relationships with Relevant Persons held by a close family member of the Director are also significant, meaning: (i) parents, (ii) children, (iii) spouses who are not legally separated and (iv) life partners (the "Close Family Members").

"Significant" shall be deemed to be the additional remuneration received by the director or statutory auditor of Neodecortech (or their respective Immediate Family Members), as applicable, for additional positions in corporate boards, committees or bodies of Neodecortech, its subsidiaries, the entity controlling the Company and companies subject to common control, which, taken together, result in a gross annual amount exceeding the fixed compensation for the office received by the director or statutory auditor whose independence is at issue in Neodecortech (including, if any, the compensation provided for participation in Board committees, as well as any compensation envisaged as Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors, or as Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors).

For the purposes of the above: (a) "fixed remuneration for the office" shall mean: (i) the annual remuneration determined by the Shareholders' Meeting for all the Directors and Statutory Auditors or established by the governing body for all the non-executive directors within the total amount resolved by the Shareholders' Meeting for the whole governing body; (ii) the annual remuneration, if any, attributed by reason of the particular office held by the individual non-executive director within the governing body (Chairman or Deputy Chairman) defined according to the best practices envisaged in the Corporate Governance Code (i.e. taking into account the common remuneration practices in the relevant industries and for companies of similar size, also considering foreign comparables); (b) "compensation envisaged for participation in Board committees" shall mean any annual compensation that the individual director may receive by reason of participation in Board committees envisaged in the Corporate Governance Code or committees/bodies provided for by applicable law (including for any attendance of directors or statutory auditors in the supervisory board), excluding in any event any compensation resulting from attendance in any executive committees.

The Company believes that the characteristics of Board disclosure - together with the induction programme held during the term of office of the Board of Directors currently in office - allows the Directors to gain adequate knowledge of the Issuer's segment of operation, and of corporate dynamics, their evolution, in

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

addition to the dynamics underlying and inherent to the listing of the Company and the disclosure obligations, in compliance with the relevant regulatory framework.

4.4. Operation of the Board of Directors (pursuant to Article 123-bis, paragraph 2, letter d), TUF)

On 11 December 2019, the Issuer's Board of Directors adopted the operating procedure "Operation of the Board of Directors" to adapt the corporate governance rules to the principles set forth in the Corporate Governance Code, as well as to ensure an effective and timely management of Board disclosure and an efficient conduct of the meetings and related minutes.

On 30 March 2023, the Issuer's Board of Directors adopted, in lieu of the above procedure, the BoD Regulation, designed to ensure that its functions are performed effectively and efficiently. This regulation governs, inter alia: (i) the procedures for convening board meetings and managing pre-Board disclosure, ensuring that the documentation supporting the meetings is made available to directors and statutory auditors by the administration, in a way that ensures maximum confidentiality, at least 5 (five) days before the scheduled meeting or, in the case of an urgent meeting, at least twenty four hours prior to the time set for the meeting; (ii) the procedures for conducting meetings and passing resolutions; (iii) the terms and methods for recording meeting minutes; (iv) the confidentiality obligations concerning the documents and information obtained during meetings, in accordance with the procedure adopted by the Issuer for managing inside information. The BoD Regulation is available on the Company website in the "Investors-Corporate Governance-Documenti e Procedure-Regolamenti" section.

The Board of Directors generally meets at least once every three months, following call by the Chairman, by means of a notice that shall indicate the items on the agenda to discuss and resolve upon, based on a calendar that is adopted by the end of each year, as well as:

whenever the Chairman deems it necessary;
when requested by at least two of its members;
when requested by a member of the Board of Statutory Auditors, in all cases provided for by law.

Individual Directors may also request the Chairman to include new items for discussion on the agenda, and if the request is not granted, the Chairman shall inform the Director in a timely manner.

Pursuant to the Bylaws, the Board of Directors is convened by means of a written notice containing the agenda, sent also by fax or e-mail only, to be sent at least 5 (five) days in advance to each member of the Board of Directors and each Standing Auditor or, in case of urgency, at least 24 hours before the time set for the meeting.

Meetings of the Board of Directors are considered legitimately convened, even in the absence of a formal call, when all the Directors and all the Standing Auditors are in attendance.

Minutes of each meeting of the Board of Directors shall be taken, signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the secretary appointed by the Board of Directors (the "Secretary"), as set forth below.

The text of the final minutes shall be subject to formal approval by the Board of Directors at the first available meeting and transcribed in the minutes book by the Secretary. The minutes are available (together with the related annexes and the documents filed with the minutes) for consultation upon request by each Director and member of the Board of Statutory Auditors.

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

For the purposes of the discussion of the items on the agenda, the Chairman ensures - assisted also by the Secretary of the Board of Directors - the timeliness and completeness of pre-Board disclosure, by adopting the procedures required to preserve the confidentiality of the data and information provided and by ensuring that the documentation related to the items on the agenda is brought to the attention of the Directors and Statutory Auditors well in advance of each meeting, within 5 (five) days prior to the meeting, except in cases where the documentation is made available at least twenty-four hours before the time set for the meeting. In any case, the Directors and Statutory Auditors may access the information documents at the registered office in the days prior to the meeting. The Chairman shall see that such information is made available to the Directors and Statutory Auditors.

Documents are made available by sharing on a computer platform with confidential access that ensures adequate protection of the confidentiality of data and information. During the Year, all supporting documents were sent to the Directors and members of the Board of Statutory Auditors, in relation to the items on the agenda and subject to a planned resolution, usually within 5 (five) working days before the Board meeting, except for particular cases, for which adequate and timely in-depth analyses were carried out during the Board meeting.

In the event that the topic under discussion is likely to become inside information as a result of its approval by the Board of Directors, the disclosure may be provided within a shorter period of time or during the meeting, as well as in ways other than those above (e.g., by making the information available in hard copy during the meeting). In such a case, the President shall give prior notice to the directors and the standing auditors.

Directors and standing auditors may in any case have access to the information documents at the registered office of the company in the days prior to the meeting. The Directors and Statutory Auditors are required to keep confidential the content of the documents and information acquired during the performance of their duties, as well as to comply with the rules adopted by the Company for their disclosure, in compliance with the procedure adopted by the Company for the internal management and disclosure to third parties of inside information and capital transactions.

During the Year, the Board of Directors met 11 times and 4 meetings are scheduled for the current year, as per the published Financial Calendar. After Year end, 4 meetings have already been held, on 4 March 2026, on 13 March 2026, on 23 March 2026 and 26 March 2026. At the latter meeting, the Board of Directors approved this Report.

The average length of each Board meeting was approximately three hours.

The Board of Directors shall be legitimately convened with the presence of a majority of its members.

The Board of Directors resolves validly with the favourable vote of an absolute majority of the attendees, unless otherwise provided by law. In the event of a tie, the vote of the Chairman of the Board of Directors shall prevail.

With regard to the participation percentage of each Director at the meetings held during the Year, reference should be made to Table 2 ("Structure of the Board of Directors at the end of the financial year").

During the Year, the meetings of the Board of Directors were often attended - as invited guests and in relation to the specific items treated - by the managers and/or other employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries in order to enhance the Board meetings as a typical moment where non-executive directors acquire detailed

4.5. Role of the Chairman of the Board of Directors

Pursuant to Article 23 of the Bylaws, the meetings of the Board of Directors are presided by the Chairman or, in his absence, by the Vice Chairman.

The Chairman works to guarantee an efficient operation of Board meetings and, more generally, to ensure compliance with the corporate governance system adopted by the Issuer, by guaranteeing the balance of powers granted to the Chief Executive Officer and the other executive directors with regard to the information and management needs of the other Board members and acting as a liaison between the directors and all corporate bodies.

Specifically, the Chairman ensures that the items on the agenda are given the necessary time to allow for an effective debate and, in the course of the meetings, encourages Directors to give their own contribution. Additionally, the Chairman ensures, assisted also by the Secretary, the timeliness and completeness of pre-Board disclosure, adopting the procedures required to preserve the confidentiality of the data and information provided. In particular cases where the disclosure required cannot be provided well in advance, the Chairman ensures that adequate and timely in-depth discussions are held during Board sessions.

More specifically, during the Year, the Chairman of the Board of Directors oversaw:

the appropriateness of pre-Board disclosure, as well as the additional information provided at board meetings, assessing and ensuring that all directors act in an informed manner;

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

The Board of Directors of the Company is currently composed of 3 (three) Independent Directors, who satisfy the independence requirements set out pursuant to the combined provisions of Articles 147-ter and 148, paragraph three of the TUF, as well as the independence requirements set out in the Corporate Governance Code.

The Company's Independent Directors are:

(i) Francesco Megali: Independent Director;
(ii) Monica Girardi: Independent Director;
(iii) Cinzia Morelli: Independent Director.

The Board of Directors:

defined the quantitative and qualitative criteria for assessing the significance of the relevant circumstances pursuant to the Code for the purposes of assessing the independence of directors. For further details, reference should be made to paragraph 4.3 above, in the section on Quantitative and qualitative criteria for assessing the significance of business, financial, or professional relationships that may compromise a director's independence;
in compliance with Recommendation no. 7 of the Corporate Governance Code, it assesses - at least once a year and on the basis of the information provided by the person involved or available to the Issuer - whether the Directors still satisfy the independence requirements; in this regard, following its appointment, on 29 March 2025 the Board of Directors - based on the information provided by each Director and contained in their CVs (together with all directorships and supervisory positions held in other companies) - assessed the independence requirements pursuant to Article 147-ter, paragraph 4, and 148, paragraph 3 of the TUF, as well as pursuant to the Corporate Governance Code, for Directors Francesco Megali, Monica Girardi and Cinzia Morelli. The Board of Directors discloses the outcome of its assessments through this Report;
in carrying out the above assessments, it considered all the information available (specifically, the information provided by the Directors under assessment), assessing all the circumstances that appear to compromise independence as identified by the TUF and the Code, and applied, among others, all the criteria set out in the Code with regard to the independence of Directors.

The Independent Directors of the Company are sufficient in number and authority to ensure that their judgment may have a significant influence in the decision-making process of the Board. Moreover, their expertise is appropriate to the needs of the company and the operation of the Board as well as the establishment of the relevant committees. For a brief overview of the skills and personal and professional characteristics of the Independent Directors, see paragraph 4.3 above.

With specific regard to the satisfaction of the independence requirements, the Independent Directors were asked to provide all the documentation and information required to allow the Board to assess the satisfaction of the independence requirements. More specifically, the abovementioned Independent Directors declared - by signing a self-certification (prepared pursuant to Articles 46 and 47 of Presidential Decree no. 445 of 28 December 2000) - to possess all the independence requirements set out in the combined provisions of Articles 147-ter and 148, paragraph three of the TUF and the provisions of the Corporate Governance Code.

Lastly, the independence of the abovementioned Directors is also ensured by the absence of professional, family or other relationships between them and the Company. Specifically, the above absence of substantial professional relationships was assessed in application of the Significance Criteria, adopted by the Board of Directors in accordance with Recommendation no. 7 of the Corporate Governance Code.

As provided for by the Code, at the meeting held on 23 March 2026, the Board of Statutory Auditors assessed the correct application of the assessment criteria and procedures adopted by the Board of Directors in order to ascertain the independence of its members, and found that the current composition of the governing body complies with the criteria set out in the Code.

By filling in and signing the self-certification form, the abovementioned Independent Directors confirmed their eligibility to qualify as independent and, to this end, undertook to promptly notify the Board of Directors of the Company of any subsequent change in the information provided therein.

4.7.2. Lead Independent Director

Recommendation no. 13 of the Corporate Governance Code suggests the appointment of a Lead Independent Director, inter alia, if the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors is held by the person who also jointly controls the Company.

Given that, at the end of the Year and at the date of this Report, the Chairman of the Board of Directors is the person who, indirectly through Finanziaria Valentini, controls the Company, the Board of Directors, at the meeting held on 29 April 2025, noted the advisability of also appointing a Lead Independent Director (LID) pursuant to the Corporate Governance Code, in order to coordinate the views and contributions of the non-executive directors and, in particular, the independent directors, proposing for the position the independent director Francesco Megali.

The Lead Independent Director plays a key role in strengthening corporate governance by promoting the independence, effectiveness and transparency of the Board of Directors. During the Year, the Lead Independent Director helped ensure balance among the different components of the body. Additionally, during the same period, no reports were received from either Independent Directors or other shareholders regarding any dysfunctions or issues in corporate governance.

During the Year, taking into account the regularity and completeness of the information flows provided by the executive directors to the Board of Directors and the constructive and open discussion developed during Board meetings, the Lead Independent Director did not consider it necessary to convene meetings of the Independent Directors.

6. INTERNAL COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 123-BIS, PARAGRAPH 2, LETTER D), TUF)

On 29 April 2025, the Company's Board of Directors resolved to establish (i) a Remuneration and Appointments Committee, (ii) a Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee, and (iii) a Related Party Committee (hereinafter the "Committees").

In setting up the Committees and determining their composition, pursuant to Recommendation no. 17 of the Code, the Board of Directors gave priority to the experience and expertise of their members, avoiding an excessive concentration of positions.

The BoD Regulation governs the operation of the Committees, providing, among other things, that their meetings are coordinated by their respective chairmen, who inform the Board of Directors about their activities at the first available meeting. The BoD Regulation also sees that the Committees have access to the information and company departments needed to perform their duties and, within the limits set by the Board of Directors, have access to the financial resources and may make use of external consultants; additionally, the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors, who are invited to the meetings by right, may attend the Committee meetings.

Lastly, the BoD Regulation requires the Committees to adopt their own regulation, approved in advance by the Board of Directors, which governs their operating procedures.

On 30 March 2023, the Board of Directors resolved, with the favorable opinion of the respective committee concerned, to adopt new committee regulations to replace those hitherto in force.

For a description of the composition, functions, duties, resources and activities of the abovementioned Committees, reference should be made to the following sections of this Report.

7. SELF-ASSESSMENT AND SUCCESSION OF DIRECTORS - REMUNERATION AND APPOINTMENTS COMMITTEE

The Remuneration and Appointments Committee jointly performs the functions that the Code assigns to the Appointments Committee and the Remuneration Committee, respectively. The Board of Directors decided to merge the functions of two committees, as required by the Code, primarily for: (i) reasons of flexibility and contiguity between some of the issues that the Code assigns to the remit of the Remuneration Committee and the Appointments Committee respectively, and (ii) to eliminate the risk of a potential lack of coordination. It should be noted that the Remuneration and Appointments Committee complies with the requirements of the Code for both the Appointments Committee and the Remuneration Committee.

7.1. Self-Assessment

In line with international best practices and the provisions of the Corporate Governance Code, the BoD Regulation envisages that the Issuer's governing body - since it is not a large company, instead with a concentrated ownership - carries out, at least every three years, an assessment on its operation and that of its committees, as well as on their size and composition, also taking account of elements such as professional characteristics, experience, including managerial experience, and gender features of its members, as well as their seniority in office. In light of the outcome of the abovementioned assessment, the Board of Directors may express its opinion to the shareholders - before appointing the new governing body - on the managerial and professional figures whose presence is deemed appropriate.

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

The Board of Directors, with the support of the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, in view of the renewal of the Board of Directors that took place during the Year, carried out a formalized self-assessment process of the Board of Directors (the "Self-Assessment") referring to the three-year period 2022-2025, through the individual and anonymous completion by the Directors of specific questionnaires prepared by the Secretary of the Board of Directors. The Self-Assessment aimed to assess, in particular, the following aspects: (i) the size, composition, and operation of the Board of Directors; (ii) the size, composition, and operation of the Board's internal committees; (iii) communication between the Board of Directors and senior management, including the induction program; and (iv) corporate governance and risk management.

Questions were also included in the questionnaires with a view to the preparation, by the Directors, of suggestions in view of the next renewal of the Board of Directors.

The answers to the Self-Assessment questionnaires were collected anonymously and brought together, to ensure a coherent comparison of answer on individual issues, in a summary document reviewed by the Remuneration and Appointments Committee at its meeting on 28 February 2025, and by the Board of Directors at its meeting on 19 March 2025.

For the purpose of the self-assessment, the Board did not resort to external consultants.

The Self-Assessment process showed that, according to 4 out of 9 members of the Board, taking into account the size and complexity of the business, in order to improve the efficiency of the Board and rationalize the related operating costs, it would be appropriate to reduce the number of Board members from 9 to 5 or, at most, 7 members (where necessary to ensure that the composition of the new Board complies with the applicable laws and regulations). In addition, this process also shows that:

if the total number of directors is reduced, the number of Independent Directors should also be reduced;
to enrich the Board's strategic perspective, it would be appropriate to appoint a director with expertise and experience in the business sectors in which the Group operates or in related sectors;
to support strategic decisions and monitor the economic sustainability of the Group's business, it would be appropriate to appoint - in continuity with the past - a director with specific expertise in finance.

In light of the fact that Neodecortech is a company with concentrated ownership, taking into account the outcome of the Self-Assessment, the Board of Directors - after consultation with the Remuneration and Appointments Committee - decided not to prepare guidelines on the quantitative and qualitative composition deemed optimal.

(ii) ceilings on the payment of variable components, which may not exceed 60% of the entire

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

remuneration (and no more than 100% of the fixed remuneration);

8.3. Remuneration of non-executive directors

The Company recognizes the importance of sustainability as a strategic element for long-term value creation and the achievement of corporate goals. In line with the best governance practices, the incentive systems adopted by the Company incorporate specific objectives tied to sustainability, confirming its commitment to responsible growth. Assessment of the achievement of the annual and long-term performance objectives for the purpose of vesting and payment of the variable components of remuneration of executive Directors and Top Management is assessed annually, in light of the results achieved, by the Remuneration and Appointments Committee, which assesses their consistency with the principles set out in the policy, also assisted by the Company's administrative unit. Payment of the amounts vested, including determination of allocation times, is decided by the Board of Directors upon approval of the Annual Report, in compliance with the provisions of the Remuneration Policy. The performance of Management and key corporate figures is assessed not only on the basis of income and financial results, but also through indicators related to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) objectives. These objectives are selected to ensure a positive and measurable impact, consistent with the corporate strategy and principles set forth in the Sustainability Plan. They are monitored through an annual assessment system that ensures alignment between the individual performance, corporate strategy, and the sustainable impacts generated in the short, medium, and long term. The integration of sustainability into the remuneration systems is aimed at promoting virtuous and achievement-oriented behaviour, contributing to strengthening the Company's positioning as a responsible and innovative leader in its industry.

9. INTERNAL CONTROL AND RISK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - CONTROL, RISK AND SUSTAINABILITY COMMITTEE

The Board of Directors - which has the remit of the internal control and risk management system (the "Internal Control and Risk Management System" or "ICRMS") as a whole - defines, assisted by the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee, the guidelines of the Internal Control and Risk Management System, so that the main risks concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries are correctly identified and appropriately measured, managed and monitored, determining the level of compatibility of such risks with the management of the Company that is consistent with the strategic objectives.

The Internal Control and Risk Management System is an integrated system implemented by multiple corporate bodies and organizational units, where the components are coordinated and interdependent, and characterized by their complementary nature in the pursuit of objectives, system characteristics, and operational regulations.

Presented below is an overview of the key figures within the ICRMS, outlining their key remits:

the Board of Directors: sets the guidelines, assesses the adequacy of the ICRMS, outlines its main features in this Report, and ascertains the degree to which risks align with managing the enterprise in accordance with the identified objectives;
the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee: with the responsibilities outlined in the above Section 9, is tasked with providing the preliminary and propositional support to aid the Board of Directors in their evaluations and decisions regarding the ICRMS, as well as their approval of periodic financial and non-financial reports. As such, it is called upon to provide an in-depth analysis, with an integrated approach and through Internal Auditing, of the consistency between internal controls and the different business and governance objectives, assessing the actual coverage of the risks identified through the different response strategies;
the Director in charge of the internal control and risk management system: this is the Chief Executive Officer with the duties outlined in detail in Section 10.2 below, of mapping the main corporate risks and implementing the guidelines defined by the Board of Directors. The duties of the Director in charge of the ICRMS, as part of the risk management process, include periodically analyzing, together with the Chief Financial Officer, the high-risk recommendations that have emerged from audits. Bearing this in mind, the Director in charge of the ICRMS meets periodically with the Head of Internal Auditing to review outstanding reports and audit recommendations and gather opinions on risks and controls;
the Head of Internal Auditing: responsible for assessing that the internal control and risk management system is in operation and adequate, according to the tasks detailed in Section 10.3 below. Specifically, it is responsible for third-level controlling and is therefore responsible for providing independent assurance on the ICRMS aimed at improving the effectiveness and efficiency of the organization. Internal Auditing is responsible for seeing that the ICRMS is in operation and adequate in relation to the Company's size and operations, ensuring that Management has

identified the main risks, that they have been assessed consistently, and that appropriate mitigation actions have been defined and implemented. It also assesses that risks are managed consistently with the resolutions of the Board of Directors, external regulations, and the Company's internal rules. The Head of Internal Auditing coordinates the periodic process of recognition and measurement of business risks, the outcomes of which are used for the purpose of preparing the annual Audit Plan;

the Board of Statutory Auditors, also acting as the Internal Control and Audit Committee pursuant to Article 19 of Legislative Decree no. 39/2010: represents the top supervisory body that oversees the effectiveness of the internal control and risk management system;
the Supervisory Board: established in implementation of Legislative Decree no. 231/2001, has broad tasks for the purpose of overseeing the validity and effectiveness of the Organizational, Management and Control Model pursuant to Legislative Decree no. 231/2001;
Second-level control functions: these are figures with specific tasks and control responsibilities on different risk areas/types. These functions oversee business risks, suggest guidelines for associated control systems, and assess their adequacy to guarantee operational efficiency and effectiveness, proper risk control during business operations, dependable information, and compliance with laws, regulations, and internal procedures;
company Management: at all levels of the organization, is responsible primarily for internal control and risk management activities (first level of control). In the course of daily operations, it is called upon to identify, measure or assess, monitor, mitigate and report risks arising from ordinary business operations, in accordance with the risk management process and applicable internal procedures. Additionally, Management provides timely information to corporate bodies, according to established internal procedures, on any event that has significant financial implications or may harm the reputation of the organization.

On 12 March 2024, the Board of Directors, subject to the favourable opinion of the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee and the Board of Statutory Auditors, appointed Fabio Quadriglia as Head of Internal Audit, effective as of the date of approval by the 2024 Shareholders' Meeting of the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023 and for the next three years (i.e., until the approval by the Shareholders' Meeting of the financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2026).

Additionally, the company's organizational chart includes an internal figure in charge of Compliance, Organization and Risk Management activities, with specific responsibilities in the areas of regulatory compliance and control systems and of corporate risk management. This figure provides support in the process of fine-tuning the Internal Control and Risk Management System and in updating Model 231. This position was held by Laura Bellezza from 1 December 2022 to 30 November 2025. Effective 19 January 2026, she assumed the role of Compliance, Organization and Risk Management Specialist, taking over from the previous resigning officer, Michela Agliati.

Within this scope, the Head of Compliance, Organization and Risk Management carries out the following activities in particular:

(i) support to Internal Audit in planning activities and periodic monitoring;
(ii) planning, amendment and implementation of Neodecortech Group business procedures;

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

(iii) analysis of business processes with a view to increasing efficiency;
(iv) assessment of the efficiency of the controls put in place by Neodecortech Group companies in order to improve their effectiveness;

(ix) monitoring and analysis of the regulatory framework on 231;
(x) collaboration with the various corporate bodies (Board of Directors, Board of Statutory Auditors, Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee).

Given the complexity of its operations and the fact that risk-taking is a central and crucial component of the Company's activities, the Board of Directors assessed the importance of identifying and mapping the main risks in advance and adopting suitable instruments to govern and reduce their impact.

In order to align the Neodecortech Group's risk governance with best corporate governance practices and taking account of the risk management and internal control powers identified by the Code, the Issuer has a process in place for identifying, measuring, managing and monitoring corporate risks called "Enterprise Risk Management" (the "ERM Process").

The identified risks may originate internally or externally to the company, and may be associated with the industry and/or market environment, where the likelihood of occurrence falls outside of the company's sphere of influence. In the case of external risks, the goal of the ERM Process is to monitor the risk itself and mitigate the impact if it occurs. In the case of internal risks, the goal of the ERM Process is to manage the risk through specific prevention and control systems integrated into the company's processes, aimed at reducing the likelihood and/or containing the impact if it occurs.

The ERM process implemented at Group level and with particular specializations within the Subsidiaries, provides for the following activities every quarter and in any case of significant event or change:

identification and assessment of the Group's main risks;
identification and updating of response actions to manage the main risks;
identification and monitoring of the implementation time of any improvement actions.

As part of the process of defining the strategic business and financial plan for 2024-2026, the Board of Directors assessed and defined the nature and level of risk consistent with the Company's strategic objectives, including in its assessments all risks that may be significant for the Company from a sustainability point of view in the medium to long term.

The Internal Control and Risk Management System of the Issuer is made up of a set of values, principles, rules of conduct and operating and management procedures that shall be complied with by the Company's management and control bodies, employees and associates. The purpose of the Internal Control and Risk Management System is to enable the pursuit of the Company's objectives, in compliance with the regulations in force, preserving the Company's assets, guaranteeing reliable information (not only financial) provided to the corporate bodies and to the market, through the management and monitoring of the main business risks.

The Internal Control and Risk Management System of the Company, defined on the basis of relevant best practices, is based on the following three tiers of control:

Tier 1: operational functions identify and assess risks and define specific actions to manage them;
Tier 2: the functions responsible for risk control define methodologies and tools for risk management and carry out risk monitoring activities;
Tier 3: Internal Audit provides independent assessments on the Internal Control and Risk Management System as a whole.

The guidelines of the Internal Control and Risk Management System were defined by the Board of Directors so that the main risks affecting the Issuer and its Subsidiaries are correctly identified, and adequately measured, managed and monitored, also by determining the criteria for the compatibility of such risks with a sound and fair management of business. These guidelines also took account of the socio-environmental risks that may be relevant for the medium/long-term sustainability of the Company's activities. With regard to the outcome of the activities conducted, the Director in charge of the internal control system and the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee, within their remits, have stressed that the current internal control and risk management system is consistent and adequate to the size and organizational and operational structure of the Group.

The Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee, in particular, based on the evidence obtained in the performance of its activity, assessed on 10 March 2026 that the current internal control and risk management system is consistent and adequate to the size and organizational and operational structure of the Group.

In light of the above, on 13 March 2026, the Board of Directors of the Company, having considered the opinions expressed by the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee and the Chief Executive Officer, assessed the internal control system to be largely suitable for the company's characteristics and the assumed risk, emphasizing its ability to mitigate each of the above-described risks.

On 13 March 2026, the Board of Directors, having heard the Board of Statutory Auditors and the Director in Charge, and with the prior opinion of the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee, approved the report on Internal Audit activities at 31 December 2025.

Neodecortech attaches great importance to its Internal Control and Risk Management System, recognizing its fundamental role in ensuring the reliability, accuracy and timeliness of financial reporting.

Control environment: Neodecortech S.p.A.'s corporate culture is marked by high standards of ethics and integrity. The Board of Directors plays a pivotal role in setting corporate strategies and policies, supported by internal committees such as the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee. Internal Audit is independently organized and reports directly to the Board of Directors, ensuring effective monitoring of business processes.

Risk assessment: Neodecortech S.p.A. adopts a structured process for identifying and analyzing risks related to financial reporting, assessing their impact and likelihood of occurrence. This assessment affects the design and implementation of internal controls, ensuring appropriate mitigation of identified risks.

Control activities: The company has implemented policies and procedures to ensure the implementation of Management directives. These include process-level controls and general IT controls, ensuring the accuracy and completeness of financial data.

Information and communication: Neodecortech S.p.A. uses effective channels and processes to ensure that relevant information is identified, collected, and communicated in a timely manner within the organization. This supports the effectiveness of the internal control system and ensures the quality of financial reporting.

Monitoring activities: The company continuously monitors the effectiveness of the internal control system through periodic audits, independent assessments, and follow-up of any identified deficiencies. This process ensures continuous improvement and adaptation of the system to regulatory and operational changes.

As part of the Risk Management and Internal Control System, the closing process known as the Financial Statement Closing Process (hereinafter, the "FSCP") provides guidance within the Company to ensure the timely, effective, organized and accurate production of financial disclosure to monitor final business performance and related recurring external financial communication.

The periodic financial statements are prepared in compliance with the international accounting standards (IFRS). This activity is entrusted to the Chief Financial Officer (CFO), supported operationally by the organizational units involved. The closing process also enables the Group to comply with the indications set out by the Stock Exchange Regulation for the preparation of mandatory interim documents.

The FSCP consists of macro-activities, ranging from preparing instructions for closing activities and calendar dissemination to preparing all financial statement schedules as required by regulations.

More specifically, the FSCP is a wide-ranging and articulated process involving all the companies of the Group aimed at obtaining the Financial Statements and the interim financial reports, as well the related disclosure. The financial reporting process, both for annual and interim closures, consists of a series of operational steps that involve the different business functions responsible for managing the asset and liability cycle, treasury, personnel management and general and tax accounting.

NEO DECOR TECH

The Company has set up a reporting system, as a system of information flows that allows performance to be monitored, both from an operational and financial point of view, enabling the Management of the Neodecortech Group to assess the achievement of the objectives set by the strategic planning and budgeting activities, and put in place the appropriate remedies if required. This system provides useful information that enables comprehensive monitoring of company performance.

As part of the monitoring processes, a I tier Operational Control is implemented, carried out mainly by corporate functions and based on a time span that is not only quarterly and monthly, but also weekly and daily, aimed at assessing more detailed performance directly traceable to the areas overseen by these organizational units. Additionally, there is a II tier Management Control, which operates mainly on a monthly basis and provides data to support managerial action and decision-making. This process, which is aimed at producing analyses comparing objectives and actual figures, uses as its output a detailed report on sales together with a financial-operational report in order to provide Top Management with a monthly update on the main evidence of the Group's general performance emerging from the control process.

In accordance with the provisions of Legislative Decree 231/2001, the Company has also set up the Supervisory Board, which is tasked with supervising the adequacy and effective implementation of Model 231, and the Code of Ethics, seeing to any necessary updates.

In accordance with the provisions of Legislative Decree 231/2001, the Supervisory Board carries out its functions in full autonomy, operating without any constraints of dependence on other company functions, on Top Management and on the Board of Directors.

The Supervisory Board maintains constant relations with the Board of Directors and the Board of Statutory Auditors, periodically informing them of the implementation of the Model, the need to modify or update it, as well as the results of the assessment activities carried out and, promptly, of any violations ascertained.

The Supervisory Board acts on the basis of the purposes assigned to it by law and steers its operations towards the pursuit of such purposes. At the date of the Report, the Supervisory Board, appointed, pursuant to Neodecortech's Model 231, on 5 March 2023 and in office until approval of the Company's draft financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2025, is composed as follows:

(i) Ettore Raspadori (Chairman, external member);
(ii) Federica Menichetti (External Member)
(iii) Laura Bellezza (internal member)(*).

(*) It should be noted that, following the resignation of Laura Bellezza on 4 December 2025, the Board of Directors resolved to keep the composition of the Supervisory Board unchanged, stipulating that it would continue to operate with only two members: the Chairman, Ettore Raspadori, and Federica Menichetti. Both will remain in office until the natural expiry of their term, i.e., until approval of the financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2025.

Mention should be made that Ms. Menichetti is also a Standing Auditor of the Issuer and her appointment as member of the Supervisory Board was deemed appropriate by the Issuer in order to ensure coordination among the various parties involved in the internal audit and risk management system, in compliance with the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code.

Pursuant to Article 30 of the Bylaws, the Board of Statutory Auditors consists of 3 (three) standing auditors and 2 (two) alternate auditors appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting.

The Statutory Auditors shall meet the requirements of law, the Bylaws and other applicable provisions.

The Board of Statutory Auditors remains in office for three years and its term of office expires on the date of the Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the financial statements for the third year of office. The Statutory Auditors are appointed - in compliance with the applicable legislation in force at the time on gender balance - based on the lists submitted by the shareholders, in which the candidates are listed in sequential order.

The lists submitted by the shareholders consist of two sections, one for the candidates running as Standing Auditor, the other for the candidates running as Alternate Auditor. The list shall contain at least one candidate for the office of Standing Auditor and one candidate for the office of Alternate Auditor, and may contain up to a maximum of three candidates for the office of Standing Auditor and two candidates for the office of Alternate Auditor.

Shareholders who, alone or together with other shareholders, hold, at the time of submission of the list, the percentage stake required to submit lists for the election of members of the Board of Directors of the Company, are entitled to submit a list. Each shareholder, as well as the shareholders belonging to the same group, the shareholders who are members of the same shareholders' agreement pursuant to Article 122 of the TUF, the controlling entity, the subsidiaries and those subject to joint control pursuant to Article 93 of the TUF, may not submit or take part in the submission of more than one list, neither through a third party nor a trust company, nor vote for different lists. Each candidate may stand for election only on one list, under penalty of ineligibility.

Candidates may not be included in the lists if they are ineligible or incompatible, or if they do not meet the requirements of independence, integrity and professionalism set out by applicable law, or exceed the limits for the maximum number of offices set out by law and regulation. Outgoing Statutory Auditors are eligible for re-election.

For the purposes of the provisions of Article 1, paragraph 2, letters b) and c) and paragraph 3 of Ministerial Decree no. 162 of 30 March 2000, matters strictly pertaining to the activities carried out by the Company are intended as commercial law, company law, business administration, accounting, finance, statistics, as well as matters with a similar or comparable purpose, while business segments strictly pertaining to those in which the Company operates are intended as decorative paper, laminates and panels.

The lists submitted by the shareholders are filed, according to the indications in the notice of call of the Shareholders' Meeting, at the registered office and are available to any person upon request. Filing shall be made at least twenty-five days before the date set by the Shareholders' Meeting convened on first or in single call to resolve on the appointment of the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors, unless otherwise provided for by law and regulations.

Moreover, the lists that contain a total of three or more candidates shall include candidates of different gender, as provided for in the notice of call of the Meeting, so as to allow the Board of Statutory Auditors to

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

be composed in accordance with the provisions on gender balance set out in the legal and regulatory provisions in force from time to time and in the Corporate Governance Code issued by Borsa Italiana S.p.A..

Each list shall be filed together with (i) information on the identity of the shareholders who have submitted the lists; (ii) the professional curricula vitae of each candidate, which contain detailed information on his/her personal (including gender) and professional details; (iii) the statements that each candidate accepts the nomination and states, under his/her responsibility, that there are no reasons for incompatibility or ineligibility, and that he/she complies with the requirements set out by current law and regulations in force to hold office, including compliance with the limits to the maximum number of offices set out by current legal and regulatory provisions; and (iv) additional information required by legal and regulatory provisions, included in the notice of call of the Meeting. Within the deadline set out by the applicable regulations for publication of the lists by the Company, the specific certification issued by the intermediary authorized by law shall be filed, proving ownership of the number of shares required to submit the list at the time of filing with the Company.

Any list that fails to comply with the foregoing requirements is considered as not having been submitted.

If, by the deadline for submitting lists, only one list has been filed, or only lists submitted by shareholders who are connected pursuant to Article 144-quinquies of CONSOB Regulation 11971/1999, lists may be submitted until the third day after such date, without prejudice to the provisions of Article 147-ter, paragraph 1-bis, last sentence, of the TUF. In such case, the threshold for submitting lists is reduced by half.

Statutory Auditors are elected as follows:

(i) from the most-voted list at the Shareholders' Meeting, two Standing Auditors and two Alternate Auditors shall be drawn on the basis of the sequential order in which names appear in the sections of the list;

(ii) from the second most-voted list at the Shareholders' Meeting, submitted by shareholders who are not connected, directly or indirectly, with the shareholders who submitted or voted the most-voted list, the remaining Standing Auditor and the other Alternate Auditor are drawn according to the sequential order in which they appear in the sections of the list.

The election of Statutory Auditors shall, however, be subject to the provisions of the law and regulations in force from time to time. In the event of a tie between the submitted lists, the candidates elected are those of the list submitted by the shareholders holding the largest stake or, secondarily, by the highest number of shareholders.

If, according to the abovementioned procedures, the composition of the Board of Statutory Auditors is not ensured - with regard to its standing members - in compliance with the applicable legislation in force at the time on gender balance, the necessary replacements shall be made among the candidates for the office of Standing Auditor of the most-voted list, according to the sequential order in which candidates are listed. The Standing Auditor drawn from the minority list is appointed to the office of Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors.

If the requirements set out in the law and in the Bylaws no longer apply, including the integrity requirements pursuant to Article 148, paragraph 4 of the TUF, the Statutory Auditor shall fall from office.

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

In the event of replacement of a Standing Auditor, the Alternate Auditor belonging to the same list as the replaced Auditor shall take over until the following Meeting. If, in addition to the Standing Auditor elected from the minority list, the Alternate Auditor from that list ceases to hold office, he/she shall be replaced by the next candidate on the same list or, failing so, by the first candidate on the minority list that was the second most-voted list.

It goes without saying that the replacement procedures referred to in the paragraph above shall, in any case, ensure that the composition of the Board of Statutory Auditors complies with the applicable legislation in force at the time on gender balance.

The previous provisions on the election of Statutory Auditors shall not apply to the Shareholders' Meetings where only one list is submitted, or where no lists are submitted, or to the Shareholders' Meetings which are required by law to appoint the Standing Auditors and/or Alternate Auditors, required to complete the Board of Statutory Auditors following replacement, forfeiture or waiver. With regard to the appointment of Statutory Auditors who, for any reason, were not appointed according to the list voting procedure, the Shareholders' Meeting shall resolve with the majorities required by law, subject to compliance with the principle of necessary representation of minorities and the applicable legislation in force at the time on gender balance.

The Shareholders' Meeting determines the fees to the Statutory Auditors, as well as the refund of expenses incurred to carry out their duties.

Since 22 November 2022, he has been President of the Commission on "Updating and Revising the Principles of Conduct of the Board of Statutory Auditors of Listed Companies" established at the Italian Association of Public Accountants and Accounting Professionals.

There have been no changes in the structure of the Board of Statutory Auditors after Year end.

The Board of Statutory Auditors, in the performance of its duties, coordinated and regularly coordinates with the Control, Risk and Sustainability Committee, also through the timely exchange of information and constant participation in the Committee's meetings by the Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors or other Statutory Auditor.

As part of their activities, the Statutory Auditors did not deem it necessary to request the Head of Internal Audit to carry out audits on specific operational areas or corporate transactions. The composition of the Board of Statutory Auditors is well balanced, since it includes corporate and financial skills, with particular regard to the Chair of the Board of Statutory Auditors Edda Delon, as well as adequate compliance and legal skills, held respectively by the two full members, Stefano Santucci and Federica Menichetti, who is also a member of the Supervisory Board.

The professional expertise of the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors, as mentioned above in the presentation sheet, is such as to guarantee the necessary level of professional qualities in the performance of statutory auditing by the Board of Statutory Auditors. Specifically, the supervisory body will be called upon to oversee the reporting process and compliance with sustainability information requirements, verifying that applicable regulations and standards, such as those defined by the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), are met. It will, therefore, play a supervisory and control role in the integration of sustainability into corporate governance, monitoring the management of risks related to ESG (environmental, social, and governance) factors and assessing the effectiveness of the internal control system applied to these issues when the Company becomes subject to the CSRD.

At the meeting of 28 February 2025, the Board carried out, in keeping with the prior year, and in compliance with the rules of conduct for listed companies issued by the Italian Association of Public Accountants and Accounting Professionals ("Rules of Conduct"), the assessment process on its operation. The positive outcome of the Board of Statutory Auditors' self-assessment process was reported to the Board of Directors on 24 March 2025.

11.3. Diversity criteria and policies

Under Article 30 of the Bylaws, the composition of the Board of Statutory Auditors is required to ensure gender balance and that the lesser represented gender obtains at least one elected Statutory Auditor.

With regard to the current composition of the Board of Statutory Auditors, it should be noted that the Statutory Auditors possess adequate knowledge of the Issuer's industry of operation, of corporate dynamics and their evolution, of the principles of proper risk management, as well as of the relevant regulatory and self-regulatory framework. With particular regard to gender diversity, it should be noted that, at the date of this Report, the Board of Statutory Auditors is made up of Statutory Auditors belonging to both genders. The Company's objective is to ensure the adequacy of the composition of its Board of Statutory Auditors in terms of gender representation, as well as the skills and professional qualities of its members.

While the Company has made use of the exemption set out in Article 123-bis, paragraph 5-bis, of the TUF and has not adopted diversity policies in relation to the composition of its supervisory body, the current composition of the Board of Statutory Auditors is adequately diversified in terms of age, gender and educational and professional background, as shown by the Statutory Auditors' curricula. Therefore, this aspect is adequately covered. This diversification makes the performance of the functions of the Board of Statutory Auditors more effective and exhaustive, and allows for deeper interaction within the corporate bodies, leveraging on the different skills and experiences gained by the Statutory Auditors.

11.4. Independence

As part of the assessment of independence requirements, the Board of Statutory Auditors:

(i) at the beginning of its term of office, and, subsequently confirmed at the meeting on 28 February 2025, pre-established the quantitative and qualitative criteria to assess the significance of the related circumstances pursuant to the Code for the purpose of assessing the independence of the Statutory Auditors; in this regard, the members of the Board of Statutory Auditors assessed that they did not have any relationship of a financial or professional nature, directly or indirectly, through third-party companies or professional firms with the Issuer, the Group of which it is part or natural or legal persons controlling it or subject to common control, during the financial years ended 31 December 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018 and 2017 and up to the date of this Report;

(ii) on 24 May 2023, following the appointment that took place on 27 April 2023 and subsequently confirmed at the meeting of 28 February 2025, the Board of Statutory Auditors assessed that its members met the independence requirements set out in Article 148, paragraph 3 of the TUF and in the Corporate Governance Code. The outcome of these assessments was sent to the Board of Directors on 15 June 2023, 18 March 2024, and 24 March 2025, and the self-statements of the Statutory Auditors were acknowledged, certifying the satisfaction of the requirements of independence, integrity and professionalism required by law. It should be noted that, in continuity with what occurred in 2023, the Board of Statutory Auditors will assess, for its members, the satisfaction of the independence requirements set out in Article 148, paragraph 3, of the TUF and the Corporate Governance Code following the appointment of the new Board by the Shareholders' Meeting, and therefore after 28 April 2026;

(iii) likewise, on 24 May 2023, and subsequently on 8 March 2024 and 28 February 2025, the Board of Statutory Auditors assessed that its members met the independence requirements set out in Article 148, paragraph 3 of the TUF and in the Corporate Governance Code;

11.5. Remuneration

In compliance with Recommendation no. 30 of the Corporate Governance Code, the remuneration of Statutory Auditors is commensurate with the commitment required, the importance of the role held and the size and sector characteristics of the Company.

11.7. Role

To ensure transparency, legality, and efficiency in corporate management, the Board of Statutory Auditors engages with the directors, shareholders, and supervisory bodies, contributing to the company's stability and reputation. During the Year, it played a role in overseeing and controlling the company's procedures aimed at managing material risks, impacts, and opportunities. Specifically, its responsibilities include:

12. RELATIONS WITH SHAREHOLDERS AND OTHER RELEVANT STAKEHOLDERS

12.1. Access to information

The Company considered it in its own interest - as well as a duty towards the market - to establish an ongoing dialogue with all its Shareholders.

Therefore, also in line with the recommendations contained in the Corporate Governance Code, in order to encourage the broadest possible participation of the shareholders in Meetings and facilitate the exercise of shareholder rights - the Company created the specific section Investor Relations, which can be easily identified and accessed on the Company website.

This section provides all relevant information to Shareholders, in a timely manner and following publication of specific press releases, both of an operating and financial nature (financial statements, half-year reports and interim management statements, presentations to the financial community and the stock market performance concerning the financial instruments issued by the Company), as well as the documents of interest to all the shareholders (press releases and documents related to the Shareholders' Meetings).

On 2 March 2021, the Board of Directors of the Issuer - also taking account of the listing of the Company in the STAR segment of the MTA (now Euronext Milan) - resolved to appoint the Chief Executive Officer Luigi Cologni as Investor Relator in place of KT&Partners S.r.l.; this resolution was taken in order to ensure compliance with the provisions contained in the Regulation of the Markets organized and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A., which sets out, inter alia, the obligation for companies to identify within their organization an investor relator whose specific task is to manage relationships with investors.

The Investor Relator is responsible primarily for managing relationships with investors, financial analysts and intermediaries. Specifically, it provides support in analyzing research on the Company, establishing consensus estimates, and preparing presentations for the market and for meetings with investors.

On 24 June 2025, following a press release, Neodecortech appointed My Twin Communication as its strategic partner for advisory activities dedicated to Investor and Media Relations.

12.2. Dialogue with Shareholders and other relevant stakeholders

At the date of this Report, the Board of Directors has not formally adopted a policy for managing a dialogue with shareholders in general, in accordance with the principle of proportionality also outlined in the

Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure Neodecortech S.p.A.

NEO DECOR TECH

Corporate Governance Code and in view of its own size and characteristics (not large or with a concentrated ownership) and composition of its shareholder base.

Nonetheless, in the interest of the Company itself as well as of the integrity of the market, the Company intends to implement an overall management of the dialogue with shareholders and investors (current and potential), by operating both during and outside the Shareholders' Meetings and in compliance with the confidentiality of information, in compliance with the regulatory framework and the policies for the management of corporate information, in particular significant and inside information, as well as the guidelines on selective information.

In this regard, the role of investor relator of the Company is held by the Chief Executive Officer. By reason of his powers and responsibilities, the Chief Executive Officer is the only person designated to receive requests for dialogue. These requests, both those from shareholders or investors and those taken at the Company's initiative, are handled by the Chief Executive Officer in an overall manner and in constant coordination with the Chairman of the Board of Directors. Where deemed appropriate, the Chief Financial Officer is involved in matters within his specific area of responsibility.

Opportunities for dialogue, which are also held in English, mainly concern financial and non-financial results, the risk management system, the share capital structure, ESG (Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance) issues, as well as the Issuer's strategy, to the extent deemed shareable.

The Chief Executive Officer, in coordination with the Chairman of the Board of Directors, reports to the Board of Directors on the investor relations activities carried out at least twice a year, and in any case whenever an event requiring his immediate involvement occurs. In any case, the Board of Directors retains the function of directing and constantly monitoring the dialogue. There are no forms of individual dialogue by other individual members of the governing body.

Therefore, it is believed that the Issuer has so far managed and developed a model of correct, transparent and fruitful dialogue with shareholders and investors, by consolidating the practice previously adopted, according to flexibility and proportionality criteria.

Lastly, with regard to other stakeholders, both internal (e.g., Group employees) and external (e.g., customers, suppliers, government agencies, banking and other financing institutions, trade unions, insurance companies), the Company has long established an active, transparent and constructive dialogue with them through multiple communication channels, including one-to-one meetings, and participation in events.

Neodecortech maintains an ongoing and transparent dialogue with its stakeholders - individuals, groups or organizations with different interests in the Company - in order to understand their needs and develop effective strategies. This engagement enables the identification of risks and opportunities, fostering trust and creating value in a sustainable manner. Over time, the Group has mapped its stakeholders and developed communication channels appropriate to the level of mutual interdependence and influence. To ensure effective coordination between this Report and the Sustainability Report, with regard to the information required by ESRS 2 - Par. 43; ESRS 2 Par. 45, reference should be made to the Sustainability Report (Materiality Analysis - Stakeholder Engagement section page 30), where the relevant details are provided.

The Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting resolves on matters reserved to it by law. In any case, the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting has the remit for resolutions concerning the acquisition of investments involving unlimited liability of the investee's obligations.

The Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting resolves on amendments to the Bylaws, on the appointment, replacement and powers of liquidators and on any other matter expressly assigned to it by law. In conjunction with the remit of the Shareholders' Meeting, resolutions on the items indicated in articles 2365, second paragraph, and 2446, last paragraph, of the Italian Civil Code fall under the remit of the Board of Directors.

The Shareholders' Meeting, whether ordinary or extraordinary, is constituted and resolves validly in accordance with the law.

The resolutions of the Meeting, taken in compliance with the law and the Bylaws, are binding on all Shareholders, including those absent or dissenting, and shall be recorded in the minutes, drawn up in compliance with the legislation in force at the time and signed by the Chairman and the Secretary or the notary public chosen by the Chairman. Pursuant to Article 8 of the Bylaws, the Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders' Meetings are usually held at the registered office or in other place indicated in the notice of call, as chosen by the governing body, provided that it is in Italy.

Pursuant to the Bylaws, the Shareholders' Meeting is presided over by the Chairman of the Board of Directors or, if absent, by the Vice Chairman. In the event of the absence of the Chairman or Vice Chairman, the Meeting shall be chaired by the eldest of the Directors attending.

In order to reduce constraints and obligations that make it difficult or costly to attend the Shareholders' Meeting and exercise the voting right, the Meeting Regulation governing the procedure for the Issuer's Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders' Meetings provides that those who wish to take the floor shall ask the Chairman, after the item on the agenda to which the request to take the floor refers has been read out and discussion has been opened, and before the Chairman declares the discussion on the item under discussion closed. Those entitled to take the floor are entitled to do so only once on each item on the agenda, except for a reply and an explanation of vote, each lasting no longer than 10 minutes.

The Chairman, taking account of the subject and importance of the single items on the agenda, indicates the time available to each person entitled to take the floor, usually for not less than 5 minutes and not more than 10 minutes. Once the set time has elapsed, the Chairman may invite the person entitled to take the floor to end within the following 5 minutes. Then, if the statement is taking too long, the Chairman may take the floor from the speaker.

Voting by correspondence or by electronic means is exercised according to the procedures indicated in the notice of call, in compliance with the applicable statutory and regulatory provisions.

The conduct of Shareholders' Meetings is governed by the Meeting Regulation, approved by resolution of the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting on 30 April 2018.

The Meeting Regulation - available on the Company website and at its registered office - was adopted in order to govern the orderly and proper operation of meetings and to facilitate the exercise of shareholders' rights.

On 29 April 2025, the Shareholders' Meeting of the Issuer was held, which was called to resolve, inter alia, on the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024. At the meeting, attended by 4 of the 9 Directors in office (Mr. Valentini, Mr. Cologni, Ms. Vittoria Giustiniani and Ms. Cinzia Morelli) the Board of Directors reported to the Shareholders' Meeting on the activities carried out and planned and made every effort to ensure that the Shareholders were adequately informed about the elements required for them to make informed decisions.

It should also be noted that, with regard to the Year:

at the Shareholders' Meeting held on 29 April 2025, the Board of Directors ensured adequate disclosure to the shareholders, also by preparing and making available the reports on the items on the agenda, pursuant to Article 125-ter, paragraph 3, of the TUF;
the Board of Directors did not find any significant changes in the capitalization or shareholder base such as to require the proposal of amendments to the Bylaws;

16. CONSIDERATIONS ON THE LETTER OF 18 DECEMBER 2025 FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE

In accordance with the notice by Borsa Italiana of 18 December 2025, the Issuer sent to the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company, as well as, for information, to the Chief Executive Officer and the Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors, the 2025 Report of the Corporate Governance Committee "on the evolution of corporate governance of listed companies" containing, inter alia, the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Committee for 2026.

At the meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company held on 23 March 2026, the Board conducted an in-depth review of the recommendations, and the Chairman, after clarifying that the Company's governance appears to be already aligned with most of the recommendations made by the Committee, noted the actions already taken and planned by the Company in order to achieve full compliance with the provisions of the Code.

Accordingly, the Board of Directors of the Company provided feedback on the recommendations made by the Corporate Governance Committee as follows:

Topic	Recommendation	NDT Corporate Governance
REMUNERATION POLICY	The Committee invites companies to ascertain the existence, in their remuneration policies, of provisions regarding possible extraordinary payments and/or severance pay for executive directors, to assess the measurability of such payments, and to supplement these provisions - where necessary - with maximum limits and clear benchmarks.	The Board of Directors adopts all recommendations prescribed by the Corporate Governance Code with regard to compensation related to exceptional circumstances pursuant to Article 123-ter of the TUF.
The Remuneration Policy does not provide for severance payments for executive directors in addition to those provided for in the applicable national collective bargaining agreements.
DIALOGUE WITH OTHER RELEVANT STAKEHOLDERS	The Committee invites large companies to adopt a policy of dialogue with non-financial stakeholders and to structure such dialogue clearly, adopting a dedicated policy that defines the criteria, methods of involvement and responsibilities, and ensuring adequate reporting to the Board on the outcomes of the dialogue. The Committee also invites the Board of Directors to provide, in the 2025 report, information on the steps taken in this regard and, only in the 2026 corporate governance report, to provide adequate information on the policy adopted.	The Company is not a “large” company; therefore, it is not included among the recipients of this recommendation; however, NDT has long established an active and continuous dialogue with its stakeholders, both internal (e.g., the Group’s employees) and external (e.g., customers, suppliers, local communities, etc.), through multiple communication channels.

Macro-theme	Corporate Governance Code	Date of letter	Text of the recommendation in the Letter
Principle of proportionality	Definitions	December 2021	It is recommended to assess the company's classification with regard to the categories of the code and the streamlining options available for "non-large" and/or "concentrated" companies, and adequately indicate the choices made.
Dialogue with other stakeholders	Principle IV	December 2021	It is recommended that companies ensure the Corporate Governance Report provides adequate and concise information [...] on the approach taken to promote dialogue with relevant stakeholders.
		January 2023	The Committee invites companies to provide adequate information in their Corporate Governance Report on the criteria and manners in which the governing body has promoted dialogue with other relevant stakeholders.
		December 2025	The Committee invites large companies to adopt, in 2026, a policy governing dialogue with other stakeholders relevant to the company (either combined with or separate from the policy addressed to all shareholders). The policy: - identifies the criteria for identifying the categories of other stakeholders relevant to the company, defining appropriate ways of communicating with the dialogue recipients; - identifies the individuals and corporate departments to which the management of the dialogue is delegated; - identifies specific topic areas of interest for dialogue with other stakeholders relevant to the company; - assigns to the Chairman of the Board of Directors the task of ensuring that the Board of Directors is adequately informed about the development and significant content of the dialogue carried out with other stakeholders relevant to the company. The Committee invites the governing bodies to provide, in the next corporate governance report to be published in 2027, adequate information on the policy and on the actual dialogue activities carried out with other stakeholders relevant to the company, reporting on the topics covered by the dialogue and any initiatives undertaken by the company as a result of the dialogue.

	Recommendation 1	December 2023	The Committee invites companies to offer adequate disclosure regarding the Board’s engagement in reviewing and approving the business plan, as well as analyzing matters relevant for the generation of long-term value.
Increased voting rights	Recommendation 2	December 2023	The Committee invites companies to make adequate disclosure in the governing body’s proposals on the introduction of the increased voting rights system, of the purpose of the decision and the expected effects on ownership and control structures and future strategies, and to provide adequate reasons for any failure to disclose such elements.

Dialogue policy with shareholders	Recommendation 3	December 2021	[...] It is recommended to provide concise information on the content of the policy for dialogue with shareholders in general, without prejudice to the advisability of publishing the policy in full, or at least its main elements, on the Company website.

Macro-theme	Corporate Governance Code	Date of letter	Text of the recommendation in the Letter
Chairman with relevant delegated powers		December 2024	Companies are invited [...] to provide all relevant information on how Recommendation 4 has been applied, bearing in mind that the lack of an adequately reasoned explanation of the choice to give the Chairman significant management authority (whether the CEO or not) may constitute a disapplication of Recommendation 4 of the Code. In the event of actual disapplication, companies are therefore invited to clearly state this in the report on corporate governance, explaining: the reasons, how the decision to disapply was made within the company, and how it is intended to ensure compliance with Principles V and X of the Code.
Independence of directors	Recommendation 7	December 2020	On the issue of the application of independence criteria, the Committee invites boards of directors to:
- always justify on an individual basis any non-application of one or more independence criteria;
- define ex-ante the quantitative and/or qualitative criteria to be used to assess the significance of the relationships under review.
		December 2021	It is recommended to provide in the Corporate Governance Report the criteria used to assess the significance of professional, commercial or financial relationships and additional compensation, including with regard to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, if the latter has been assessed as independent under the Code.
		January 2023	The Committee reiterates the importance of defining ex-ante and disclosing in the Corporate Governance Report the quantitative measures and qualitative standards for evaluating the significance of any business, financial, or professional connections, as well as any supplemental compensation that may impact a director's independence. The Committee invites companies to consider whether it is appropriate to provide quantitative measures, including those defined in monetary terms or as a percentage of the remuneration awarded for office and committee membership recommended by the Code.
Equal treatment and opportunity	Recommendation 8	December 2021	The Committee, while noting the growing focus on [promoting equal treatment and gender opportunity within the entire corporate organization and monitoring their effective concrete implementation], invites companies to ensure adequate information in the Corporate Governance Report regarding the identification and implementation of these measures.
		December 2020	On the issue of pre-Board disclosure, the committee invites boards of directors to:
- expressly determine the timeframe deemed appropriate for submitting documentation;
- provide in the Corporate Governance Report a clear indication of the deadlines identified and their actual compliance;
- not to provide that such deadlines may be waived merely for the sake of confidentiality.
		December 2021	The Committee invites boards of directors to ensure the preparation of Board and committee regulations, paying special attention to the express determination of the time limits deemed appropriate for the submission of documentation and

When preparing the Corporate Governance Report, companies should also adequately explain whether they have actually complied with the notice period previously defined and, in exceptional cases where they were unable to comply with such period, explain the reasons and illustrate how adequate clarifications were provided at Board meetings.
		January 2023	The Committee invites governing bodies to provide procedures for handling pre-Board disclosure that do not include generic exemptions to the timeliness of disclosure for reasons of confidentiality of data and information, and provide detailed information in the Corporate Governance Report on any failure to comply with the notice period specified in the procedures for sending board documents, giving reasons and explaining how adequate insights were ensured at the board meeting.
		December 2023	The Committee, while recognizing the improvements that have been made, invites companies to provide adequate justification in the Corporate Governance Report for any deviation from the promptness of pre-Board disclosure due to confidentiality reasons, which may be provided for in board regulations and/or adopted in practice.
		December 2024	Companies are invited [---] to provide all relevant information on how to apply Recommendation 11, bearing in mind that failure to set deadlines for the prior submission of information to the Board and committees and/or failure to provide information on effective compliance with the deadlines and/or provision in the Board rules or practices for the possibility of waiving the timeliness of information for reasons of confidentiality may constitute the disapplication of Recommendation 11. In the event of actual disapplication, companies are therefore invited to clearly state this in the report on corporate governance, explaining: the reasons for disapplication, how the decision to disapply was made within the company, and how it is intended to ensure compliance with Principle IX of the Code.
Participation of Management	Recommendation 12	January 2023	The Committee invites companies to define, in the regulations adopted for the operation of the governing body and its committees, the ways in which these bodies can access the relevant corporate functions according to the subject matter, under the coordination of the chairman of the board of directors or committee, respectively in agreement with or informing the CEO.

	Recommendation 16	December 2020	On the issue of the appointment and succession of directors, the Committee invites boards of directors to: [...] report promptly on the activities carried out by the Appointments Committee in the event that it is merged with the Remuneration Committee or its functions are assigned to the full Board.

Self-Assessment	Recommendation 21	December 2020	On the issue of Board self-assessment, the Committee invites boards to:
- evaluate the Board's contribution to the development of strategic plans;
- oversee the board review process.
Succession plan	Recommendation 24	December 2020	On the issue of director appointment and succession, the Committee invites boards of directors to [...] provide, at least in large companies, a succession plan for executive directors that at least identifies the procedures to be followed in the event of early termination of office.
Guidelines on the composition of the governing body	Recommendation 23	December 2020	On the issue of the appointment and succession of directors, the Committee invites boards of directors to [...] ensure the completeness and timeliness of the proposed resolutions functional to the process of appointing corporate bodies and express, at least in companies with non-concentrated ownership, a guideline on its optimal composition.
		December 2021	Non-concentrated ownership companies are invited to properly review the recommendations made to them with regard to the renewal of the Board of Directors.

[...] Specifically, the boards of directors of "non-concentrated" companies are invited to ask those who submit a list containing more than half of the members to be elected to provide adequate information (in the documentation submitted for the filing of the list) on compliance of the list with the opinion expressed by the outgoing Board and to indicate their candidate for the office of Chairman. |
| | | January 2023 | The Committee reiterates the importance of the governing body, at least in companies other than those with concentrated ownership, expressing guidance on the optimal composition of the board ahead of its renewal, and calls on companies to publish this guidance well in advance so that those submitting lists of candidates can take it into account for the purposes of list composition. |
| | | December 2023 | The Committee, while recognizing the improvements made, invites companies to clearly state and provide adequate reasons in the Corporate Governance Report for the failure to express, at the time of the renewal of the board of directors, guidance on its quantitative or qualitative composition and/or the failure to ask those who submit a "long" list to provide adequate information about the correspondence of the list to the guidelines expressed.

			invites companies to indicate how the timing of the publication of the guidance was deemed appropriate to allow adequate consideration by those submitting candidate lists.
Remuneration	Recommendation 27	December 2020	On the issue of remuneration policies, the Committee invites boards of directors to:
- provide clear indications on the identification of the weight of the variable component, distinguishing between components linked to annual and long-term time horizons;
- strengthen the link between variable remuneration and long-term performance objectives, including, where relevant, non-financial parameters;
- limit to exceptional cases, subject to adequate explanation, the possibility of paying out sums not linked to pre-set parameters (i.e. ad hoc bonuses);
- define criteria and procedures for the allocation of severance indemnities;
- assess that the remuneration paid to non-executive directors and members of the supervisory body is appropriate to the expertise, professional qualities and commitment required by their office.
		December 2021	Regarding remuneration policies, the Committee, while reiterating the importance of improving policies by defining clear and measurable criteria for payment of the variable component and any severance indemnities, recommends giving adequate consideration to the consistency of the parameters identified for variable remuneration with the strategic objectives of the business activity and the pursuit of sustainable success, assessing, where appropriate, the option of non-financial parameters. With particular regard to the remuneration parameters linked to the achievement of environmental and social objectives, the Committee recommends companies to ensure that such parameters are pre-established and measurable.
		January 2023	The Committee invites companies to include in the remuneration policy of the CEO and other executive directors an executive summary, in table form, showing the composition of the remuneration package, indicating the characteristics and weighting of fixed, short-term variable, and long-term variable components versus total remuneration, at least with regard to the achievement of the target of the variable components. The Committee invites companies to include in their remuneration policies a variable component with a multi-year horizon, consistent with the company's strategic targets and the pursuit of sustainable success. The Committee invites companies with incentive mechanisms for the CEO and other executive directors tied to sustainability targets to clearly specify the precise performance objectives that must be met.
		December 2024	Companies are invited [...] to provide all relevant information on how to apply Recommendation 27, taking into account that the provision in the remuneration policy of variable components tied to general sustainability objectives for which the specific evaluation parameters are not provided and/or extraordinary one-off disbursements of which the nature and objectives are not identified and adequate resolution procedures are not defined may constitute the disapplication

		of Recommendation 27 of the Code. In the event of actual disapplication, companies are therefore invited to expressly state this in the Corporate Governance Report, explaining: the reasons, how the decision to disapply was made within the company, and how it is intended to ensure compliance with Principles XV of the Code.
	December 2025	The Committee invites listed companies to review their remuneration policies that will be submitted to shareholders for a vote at shareholders’ meetings starting in 2026 in order to:
- ascertain the existence of provisions regarding possible extraordinary payments and/or possible severance pay for executive directors;
- assess the adequacy of these provisions with respect to the principle of measurability recommended by the Code and, in the event of a negative assessment, supplement these provisions with maximum limits and clear benchmarks;
- in conducting this analysis, take into account any explicit requests made on these issues by relevant investors during the shareholders’ meeting vote on policies and/or during extra-meeting dialogue opportunities.

The Committee invites the governing bodies to report on this ascertainment and on any measures adopted to amend the remuneration policy in the next corporate governance report. |
