SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 4 GENERAL DISCLOSURES

u failure to identify and anticipate duty of vigilance or protection risks for personal data could: u prevent or stop infringements of rights (environment, Human Rights, personal data/privacy, etc.), u prevent Groupe ADP and its partners from committing to a process of continuous improvement in the management of certain non-financial risks, u complicate by-default processes and incur costs that could have been avoided with a preventive or by-design approach, u generate civil and criminal proceedings (personal data protection, etc.). The positive impacts of a proactive approach to ethics and compliance are varied. An ethics and compliance culture contributes positively not only to the company's reputation, particularly with investors, but also to the commitment and loyalty of employees and the attractiveness of Groupe ADP as an employer and partner. By committing to this approach, Groupe ADP can prevent potential crises and contribute to its ecosystem so that ethics and compliance also benefit employees, partners and society as a whole. [2-SBM-3-48-(a)] → Description of material impacts, risks and opportunities resulting from the materiality assessment For the Environmental ESRS, a total of six matters were identified as material. They are split into three levels: u three matters linked to E1 (climate change); u two matters for E2 (pollution); u one matter linked to E4 (biodiversity). Risks and opportunities associated with ESRS E1 Description of the risks and opportunities associated with the "Climate change mitigation and adaptation and development of new energy sources" topic In the most extreme cases, the risks associated with these issues (particularly those linked to greenhouse gas emissions) can lead to regulatory restrictions on the Group's activities. Reduced demand for transport due to negative public perception is also a risk. u Transition risks. In the same vein, if the infrastructure and operating methods are not adapted to climate change, the risk is that assets and operating conditions will deteriorate, or that operations may even be halted for at least one day due to physical climate change (extreme heat, flooding). The associated risks also include financial risks (due to the need for significant investment to control risks and deploy measures to limit their impact). In general, the deterioration of facilities and/or operational stoppages are considered to be a major risk, as the cost of restoring or adapting these infrastructures may be considerable for Groupe ADP. u Reputational risks. u Regulatory risks.

In the medium term, climate change could also have a major impact on the Group's assets (particularly those of TAV and AIG – i.e., extreme heat waves in Turkey and Jordan). The transformation of Groupe ADP into a true energy hub requires significant CapEx and represents a financial risk for the Group. The development of new energy sources represents a significant cost in the short and medium term. However, the expected gain from these investments over the long term must be greater than the costs initially incurred. Risks and opportunities associated with ESRS E2 Description of the risks and opportunities associated with the "Limiting our impact on air quality" topic The associated risks for Groupe ADP include financial risks requiring major investments, as well as costs related to the operating costs implemented to limit the impact of activities on air quality (particularly in extreme cases where flight restrictions may be imposed). Description of the risks and opportunities associated with the "Controlling water pollution" topic The associated risks include financial risks for Groupe ADP, since major investments are made to guarantee water quality, avoid despoiling the living conditions of local residents and reduce any negative perception they may have of airport activity. Risks and opportunities associated with ESRS E4 Description of the risks and opportunities associated with the "Biodiversity" topic The risks associated with biodiversity loss may also affect Groupe ADP's reputation. Stakeholders, including investors, customers and regulators, expect companies to take steps to mitigate their impact on the environment. If Groupe ADP fails to manage its impacts on biodiversity, this could lead to a loss of confidence on the part of these stakeholders. Conversely, these changes can also have an impact on airport activities, particularly in the event of bird collisions or if certain species damage the infrastructure. The impact of biodiversity loss can be significant, both environmentally and economically. In the most extreme cases, the degradation of ecosystems can potentially lead to a reduction in air and water quality, an increase in soil erosion and a reduction in resilience to climate change. The anticipated effects for Groupe ADP may have negative consequences on its activities, such as an increase in processing costs to offset these risks and a deterioration in operational activity. However, there are also opportunities associated with it. By taking action to protect and restore ecosystems, Groupe ADP can increase its resilience to climate change (by relying on nature-based solutions), reduce its operating costs and improve its reputation. In addition, by demonstrating its commitment to sustainability, Groupe ADP can hope to attract new customers and investors who share its environmental values.
