The Audit Committee is an expert committee formally appointed by the Board of Directors. Its primary task is to support the Board of Directors in fulfilling its supervisory duties, insofar as these concern the integrity of the financial statements, compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the qualification of external auditors, the reliability of the internal control system and risk management, and the performance of external and internal auditors.
The Audit Committee consists of three independent members of the Board of Directors. At least one member of the committee must, as determined by the Board of Directors, have current and relevant financial expertise (financial expert). In January 2026, for efficiency reasons, the Board of Directors decided to integrate the duties of the ESG Committee into the Audit Committee to consolidate responsibilities and strengthen leadership.
