Detailed information related to KPIs

The cooling purchased through local district cooling schemes, for DC and offices is zero (0) Gj [GRI 302-1_C3] and the total of steam purchased through district heating schemes to heat sites is not available. [GRI 302-1_C4] Worldline does not sell electricity, heating, cooling, or steam to third parties. [GRI 302-1_D1, GRI 302-1_D2, GRI 302-1_D3, GRI 302-1_D4] Detailed information related to [GRI 302-3] The Energy intensity ratio is calculated by dividing the absolute energy consumption during the reporting year (the numerator) by the revenue metric expressed in € (the denominator) produced by the organization, in the same reporting year. The Energy intensity ratio expresses the energy required per unit of activity. For consistency, the scope of reporting is aligned with the country scope included within our 2017 baseline. [GRI 302-3_A] For the Energy intensity ratio, the denominator for revenues is covered by Belgium, France, Germany, Argentina, Spain, India, Italy and UK, however, reporting is restricted to the baseline scope measured in 2012. Within that scope, the revenue corresponds to the turnover generated by these countries within the baseline during the year (reporting period: January 1-December 31) under analysis. [GRI 302-3_B] For the Energy intensity ratio, the denominator for employees is the total headcounts registered at the end of the financial year for all countries within the baseline as on December 31. [GRI 302-3_B] The types of energy included in the intensity ratio are: vehicle fuel, electricity, gas, district heating, backup generator fuel (diesel and fuel oil). [GRI 302-3_C] The ratio uses energy consumed only within the organization (energy required to operate). [GRI 302-1_D] Detailed information related to [GRI 302-4] The types of energy included in the energy reductions are: vehicle fuel, electricity, gas, district heating, backup generator fuel (diesel and fuel oil). [GRI 302-4_B] Worldline reports on initiatives implemented during the reporting period that have the potential to contribute significantly to reducing energy consumption. As these primarily arise through investment in infrastructure changes, the savings published are based upon full-year savings and will usually continue over several years (although each initiative is only published in its first year). [GRI 302-4_C]

Detailed information related to [GRI 302-1] . Data collection for the environmental KPIs involves a significant portion of Worldline’s countries at a constant scope with respect to 2016: Belgium, Germany, Spain, France and UK. In 2017, Worldline has also included India, Italy and Argentina in its reporting that has expand the scope (b). With few exceptions, those countries provided the information necessary to obtain a reliable estimate of the carbon footprint. To align the GRI collecting process with the Carbon Disclosure Abatement Project, Atos group used a collection methodology based on the GHG protocol and the GRI Guidelines. In this way the two processes can be integrated and the data for both reports can methods have been applied. The conversion factors have been adjusted according to country and type of energy consumed (fuel oil, diesel, gas, electricity). Conversion factors are based on Defra: Guidelines to Defra/DECC’s Greenhouse Gas Conversion Factors for Company Reporting, available at: http://www.ukconversionfactorscarbonsmart.co.uk/ . For the figures, Worldline used Electricity/Heat Conversion Factors from those last updated for 2015 by Atos group. [GRI 302-1_G] The methodology used is provided directly through the local power supplier or landlord: Concerning electricity, meters are installed at the site level to ● measure the energy consumed in kWh. The measurement recorded by the meters is used by suppliers or via landlords for issuing invoices; Concerning natural gas, meters are installed at site level to ● measure the energy consumed in M3 and converted in kWh according to local conversion ratios, in many cases directly by the supplier. The invoice is provided directly by the gas supplier or via the landlord. [GRI 302-1_F] Invoices state the total amount consumed in kWh and/or its monetary value (local currency). If only the monetary value is provided, the respective consumption in kWh is calculated by using a respective cost per unit rate. Worldline has included some assumptions and techniques for underlying estimations applied to the compilation of the Indicators and other information in the specific KPIs. For example, in the case of unavailability of actual consumption data, estimates based on previous period consumption have been used to calculate actual consumption. In the case of unavailability of consumption data, estimates based on footage and average consumption from other sites have been used to calculate actual consumption. The corresponding data is entered into the organization’s application for each site. [GRI 302-1_F] be gathered. For the CO 2 calculations, country regulations and calculation
