About This Report

Content

The SAP Integrated Report 2020 presents our full-year financial, social, and environmental performance in one integrated report ("SAP Integrated Report") available atwww.sapintegratedreport.com. Since 2012, we have taken into consideration the recommendations of the International Integrated Reporting Framework.

The SAP Integrated Report also serves as our United Nations (UN) Global Compact progress report. Since 2018, we have also reported on our contribution to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and embedded the recommended disclosures of the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).

Basis of Presentation

Our combined management report is prepared in accordance with the German Commercial Code and the relevant German Accounting Standards. The combined management report is also a management commentary complying with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) Practice Statement Management Commentary.

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS. Our executive management has confirmed the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.

Our non-financial report is prepared in accordance with sections 289b and 315b of the German Commercial Code, which require us to report, for both, SAP SE and SAP Group, on social, environmental, and other non-financial matters. All non-financial information stipulated in the German Commercial Code, sections 315c and 289c that is relevant to understand SAP's development, performance of the business, and the position of the Group and SAP SE is included in our combined management report. Rather than repeating this information, our Non-Financial Report (which is part of this integrated report athttp://www.sap.com/investors/sap-2020-combined-non-financial-report) provides references to the sections of our combined management report in which the required disclosures are made.

The social and environmental data and information included in the SAP Integrated Report is prepared in accordance with the GRI Standards: Core option. This GRI option indicates that a report contains the minimum information needed to understand the nature of the organization, its material topics and related impacts, and how these are managed. We apply the GRI principles (sustainability context, stakeholder inclusiveness, materiality, and completeness) for defining report content. We also report on SDGs identified as material to our strategy.

Greenhouse gas data is prepared based on the Greenhouse Gas Protocol.
