Along with the annual reanalysis of the list of material aspects, for the activities related to the year 2021, two new material aspects were identified in addition to those related to the previous year. Cyber Security and Green Buildings were identified in-house as two material topics relevant to the company, which are included in the Corporate Governance and Business groups, respectively Energy, Climate, and Resources. Within this sustainability report, we re-evaluated the methodology of materiality analysis and applied the concept of double materiality, through which we aimed at the quantitative evaluation of PENNY material aspects taking into account: z relevance to the business: outside-in perspective z the social and environmental impact of the organization in the community: inside-out perspective Each material aspect (out of the 18) presents an economic impact on the company (the dimension relevant to the business) and an impact on the environment and society (the dimension relevant to the community). The explanation of the different types of impact on economic, social and environmental factors can be found in this report for each material aspect in separate chapters. The concept of double materiality was integrated into the stakeholder consultation process using three methods of stakeholder participation: STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION METHOD RESULT / GOAL The online questionnaire addressed all categories of stakeholders conducted in 2021 Quantifying the impact on the community for each identified material aspect (inside-out perspective) 746 responses Internal questionnaire addressed exclusively to employees, launched between April and May 2022 A one-to-one interviewwith employees holding management positions Quantifying the business relevance of each material aspect (outside-in perspective) 8 interviews Internal 37.13% External 62.87% Stakeholders’ answers distribution All the raw data obtained from stakeholder consultation were analysed using a specific IT tool that allows the quantification of each material aspect.
