RISKS, LITIGATION, AND CONTROLS

RISK FACTORS

Despite its best efforts, the Group may have to face proven or unproven allegations that it has failed to comply with national or international regulations, and this could have a negative impact on its reputation, growth outlook and financial performance. In addition, any major change in these laws and regulations could impact the Group’s businesses. Risk management To limit its exposure to such risks, the Group develops Compliance programs to cover issues common to its businesses. Under the impetus of the Management and through the actions of the Compliance Officer, the Group seeks to constantly improve its programs and employee awareness initiatives and to put in place procedures for preventing and

handling potential risks in this regard. Moreover, the Company audits its subsidiaries around the world on a regular basis and consults outside experts to validate the compliance with applicable regulations, of various aspects of its operations. Technicolor conducts a compliance approach across the Group, building on its Code of Ethics and culture of integrity. This compliance program sets down general rules and procedures that must be respected by all employees and entities, on the basis of which a series of business specific and as applicable, local procedures is then defined. These procedures are then translated and adapted in line with local regulations and culture. In 2018, the Group updated and improved its existing Code of Ethics.
