Non-Financial Statement 2022
Letter to stakeholders
Dear Stakeholders,
We are proud to once again share our non-financial statement with you.
2022 was the third year running that we will remember for extraordinary international events that caused major uncertainty in various areas for people and businesses alike.
Fears over price trends and the procurement of energy have driven a great many companies to choose to defer the start-up of new projects, wherever possible. Yet despite this tendency, Alkemy in any case recorded annual growth in excess of 10%. This result would simply not have been possible had it not been for the commitment of all our Group people.
As further evidence of the central role played by each and every one of our resources in the business, during the ten years that have run since the company was founded, Alkemy has always stayed true to its essence and aspiration of creating a workplace where everyone can feel "at home" and free to express their talent and full potential.
Alkemy's strength in fact has always lain in its diversity: the variety of professional profiles and cultural backgrounds that characterise our people is one of our key competitive advantages, which allows us to create unique products, appreciated by our customers.
The importance of having Alkemy perceived, internally first and foremost, as a context that belongs to "all its people" drove the Group in 2022 to launch the "My Share" initiative, a stock option plan that allows employees who have been with us for more than 12 months to allocate part of their annual compensation to purchasing Alkemy shares. We started the initiative for Alkemy S.p.A. employees enjoying significant success and we are rapidly extending eligibility to also include employees of the other Group companies.
Thanks to its nature and the initiatives it launches every year, Alkemy aims to take on a leading role in its reference market, showing, through its growth and profits, just how an ethical way of doing business can truly be sustainable in the medium- and long-term.
Following this route, we started 2023 by making our commitment to topics that are particularly close to Alkemy's values official with the approval by the Board of Directors of Policies governing Diversity and Inclusion, Human Rights, Anticorruption and Green Office
- Mobility. This is a concrete step that launches a structural route that will accompany the business over the next few years and will see us, in 2023, obtain a rating and define a strategic Sustainability Plan with measurable parameters.
Alkemy's commitment thus matures further, confirming the growing importance assigned in the Group to topics linked to the environment, society and governance.
Duccio Vitali,
Chief Executive Officer of Alkemy S.p.A.
