RISKS, LITIGATION, AND CONTROLS RISK FACTORS

SPECIFIC RISKS RELATED TO THE RUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN CONFLICT This information is not included in the management report approved by the Board of Directors on February 24, 2022. Even more recently and after the close of the fiscal year, Russia's invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, and the subsequent international sanctions against Russia were identified as events whose geopolitical impact and consequences on the global economy may be very significant. Consequently, disruption of global access to Ukrainian minerals and natural resources utilized in global manufacturing as well as the need to modify transportation routes by avoiding Russian, Belarusian and Ukrainian territory, places additional strain on logistical and supply chain operations.

With regard to the Russo-Ukrainian conflict and in the specific case of Technicolor, no significant potential impact has been identified at this stage, as the Group has no - or almost no – business relationship with either of these two countries and does not hold there any assets. In addition, any new business relationships that may be established, as well as, financial and material flows to and from these countries and Belarus, are closely monitored in all operating divisions and are complying with all the international sanctions imposed against Russia. With particular regard to Connected Home and its operations, transport of products to Europe from Asia which entailed transit across Russia is temporarily suspended and is under review while regular communications with the key suppliers is ongoing in order to assess the impact on the supply chain.
