SUSTAINABILITY

ESG ROADMAP

Pharmanutra Group has defined a clear roadmap to drive Sustainability with objectives of creating long term value for its stakeholders

ESG STATE OF THE ART

▪ The ESG score attributed to the Group from Synesgy, based on 2022 Sustainability report, is C (satisfactory).

The evaluation is affected by the business model adopted by the Group (production completely outsourced to external suppliers) that makes very difficult obtaining information related to the impacts on environment.

Furthermore the Group has moved into the new headquartes in October 2023 and therefore there were not significant data related to consumption to be provided.

  • In 2023 all the targets included in the ESG roadmap has been accomplished and the activities related to 2024 are in progress.
  • We actively working in order to improve our ESG rating and we are confident that once the internal production will be fully operating and data related to consumptions are available the rating will further improve.

OUTLOOK 2024

OUTLOOK 2024

  • 2024 will be a challenging year both for maintaining the organic growth of the recurring business and for the development of the new projects launched in 2023 (Cetilar® Nutrition, Pharmanutra Usa and Pharmanutra España). The first quarter 2024 is expected to be in line with that of the previous year due to the dynamics linked to the changed inventory management policies of the Italian distribution channel and the dynamics of acquiring orders from abroad.
  • It is expected that the investments planned to support the projects above will lead to a limited reduction in margins for the next two years.
  • The BoD of 26th February 2024 approved the merger by incorporation of the subsidiaries Junia Pharma and Alesco into Pharmanutra. The merger is part of an organizational project of the Group and responds to the need to pursue greater management efficiency, allowing the development of significant synergies to optimize company processes and allow for efficiencies on the overall costs of the company structure. The reorganization will allow us to unify and integrate operational processes and obtain greater flexibility and efficiency in the use of our resources.

OUTLOOK 2024

  • As part of the process of joining the cooperative compliance institution, the project aimed to providing the Company with the Tax Control Framework was started. It will be an internal control system dedicated to the identification and management of tax risk, which is part of the corporate governance system, integrating and completing the internal control systems with which Pharmanutra is already equipped.
  • In 2024 Pharmanutra will set up a joint venture together with professionals with over twenty years of experience in the field of treatment of sports/orthopedic pathologies and in sport-specific athletic training. The project is based on the creation of a center oriented towards optimizing the performance of professional and non-professional athletes, the treatment and resolution of medical and physical problems, and will represent a reference for observational and clinical studies over the products developed by the Group's R&D.
