How remuneration policy is defined in Acea
The retribution system is the result of a clear, transparent process, involving remuneration policy proposals put forward by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee and approval of the same by the Board of Directors. The interaction between these two bodies guarantees the observance of rules, avoiding the occurrence of conflict of interest situations and ensuring transparency thanks to the availability of adequate information.
Pursuant to Article 2389 of the Italian Civil Code, the Annual General Meeting may decide not to intervene in determining the remuneration of executive Directors and Committee members, or may establish a maximum amount, leaving the Board to decide on its allocation.
The AGM also decides:
The Acea Group does not offer employees stock options as part of its reward policy. The Appointments and Remuneration Committee has worked on defining the architecture of the new long term incentive plan, the 2024-2026 Long Term Incentive Plan, in line with market best practices. The 2024-2026 LTIP is a rolling plan based on three cycles of three years providing for the payment of a bonus, at the end of the reference three-year period, on the achievement of predetermined goals. For the first cycle, the indicators used are the cumulative EPS (Earnings per Share), the NFP/EBITDA ratio, cumulative regulated Capex and a composite sustainability objective with a weight corresponding to 20%.
