2024 Sustainability Report

The management of the company is carried out by the three administrators. The right to represent the company and to make decisions belongs to each director, except for the signing of commercial contracts, with legal entities, for which the company will be represented by at least two directors or, in case of unavailability of one of them, by the representative of each. The directors have the right to represent the company with full powers before the banking institutions in order to contract loans. As regards the relations with the company's employees, all three directors have full powers, and any of them, alone or together, can sign any document regarding the relations with the employees (conclusion, execution, modification, termination of individual employment contracts, etc.). The administrators may not receive, without the authorization of the sole shareholder, the mandate of administrator in other competing companies or companies having the same object of activity, nor to carry out the same kind of trade or another competitor on their own account or on the account of another natural or legal person, under penalty of revocation and liability for damages. Directors and other members of the Management Board do not undergo additional sustainability training. All trainings, which are mandatory for all employees, are completed annually by the executive directors. The CEO regularly participates in group-level trainings. In 2024, a one-day internal workshop was held, which was attended by the entire executive, directorial and management board of PENNY Romania. During this event, key topics such as the new sustainability governance and recent legislative changes were addressed.
