PRESS RELEASE

GAÏA RESEARCH CONFIRMS WIIT AMONG IT GROUPS WITH BEST ESG PERFORMANCE

Milan, 13th April 2023 – WIIT S.p.A. ("WIIT" or the "Company"; ISIN: IT0005440893; WIIT.MI), one of the leading European players in the market of Cloud Computing services for enterprises focused on the provision of continuous Hybrid Cloud and Hosted Private Cloud services for critical applications, a company listed on the Euronext STAR Milan segment of the Euronext Milan market, organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A., announces the excellent result obtained in the sustainability assessment conducted by Gaïa Research, a French company of the EthiFinance Group specialised in assessing the ESG profile of European small and medium-sized enterprises.

The ESG rating is a synthetic assessment that certifies the environmental, social and governance performance of an organisation, complementing traditional ratings defined solely on the basis of economic-financial indicators. In order to consolidate its ESG commitment and make the most of sustainable finance opportunities, WIIT took part in the sustainability assessment process offered by Gaïa Research in 2022. This rating helps validate WIIT's ESG Plan to 2030, which was drawn up with the aim of measuring its performance and setting tangible targets in the short and medium term.

The assessment process conducted by the French company, for the third year in a row, highlighted the improvement of WIIT's ESG performance, particularly on indicators such as governance, social sphere and relations with external stakeholders, recording an overall score of 71/100 in 2022, a positive increase of 14 points compared to 2019. Thanks to this result, WIIT is 23 points above the IT industry average out of a sample of 157 rated companies.

"Gaïa Research's assessment confirms WIIT's commitment to a sustainable transition of the IT sector, a path that combines innovation and investment with a strong focus on solid corporate governance, data security, the environment and people, with the aim of creating shared value," says Alessandro Cozzi, CEO of WIIT. "The appreciation that WIIT continues to receive from the financial community encourages us to set business growth targets that are increasingly integrated with sustainability with a medium- to long-term vision."
