Exclusive Networks // Sustainability Report 2022

Environmental footprint Green Taxonomy

The Exclusive Networks Group’s business model is based primarily on human resources. Consequently, operating expenses are mainly composed of staff expenses, depreciation of assets, and other operating expenses such as rentals, travel expenses, marketing and advertising expenses, which do not fall within the scope defined in the Taxonomy. Moreover, the Group does not have any Research and Development expenses. Within the meaning of the Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139 of 4 June 2021, the activities of the

Exclusive Networks Group are not considered to contribute substantially to the first two environmental objectives and are therefore not eligible. Therefore, only operating expenditure relating to individual measures can be taken into account. Since the Exclusive Networks Group did not incur any operating expenditure under these individual measures in 2022, the share of the Group’s OPEX relating to taxonomy-eligible economic activities and consequently taxonomy-aligned activities is not significant.
