Our ESG key figures

The main principles and rules governing our actions as well as the standards we set for ourselves in dealings with the ROTO Ecosystem are listed in the voluntary ROTO Code of Conduct.

Because we want to make our performance measurable beyond market value and financial performance, we defined our eight core themes, incorporating the 17 UN SDGs, and translated them into KPIs that are embedded in our integrated dashboard. This is how we measure our performance in the following three categories: environmental, social and governance (ESG).

Governance

Guidelines for reporting on financial items have been determined and explained in the ROTO accounting manual. Each Business Unit is responsible for its own reporting, both on KPIs and financially, for substantiating its achieved results and for its expectations for the year-end results. The results for each Business Unit are discussed during the quarterly business reviews with the holding management, and they are shared in the quarterly reporting to the Supervisory Board and shareholders.

The Business Unit’s reporting of financial and non-financial results is supplemented by the full consolidated financial figures such as balance sheet, profit and loss accounts and cash flow statement as well as the financial position of the company in terms of cash position, loan and covenant positions, investments in the reporting period and the expected investments for the coming periods. The Supervisory Board and the shareholders meet quarterly to discuss strategic plans, reported results and expectations for the coming periods.
