BUSINESS ETHICS, A CORNERSTONE OF RESPONSIBLE PERFORMANCE OPmobility puts ethics at the heart of its responsible growth model. Ethics guide every decision, every partnership, and every project. The fundamentals, including a Code of Conduct, sustainable purchasing, and transparency, ensure exemplary governance and proactive anti‑corruption controls and awareness initiatives. In 2025, the Compliance team, including Region Leaders in Mexico, Poland, and China as well as the members of its network, was reinforced and restructured; it now includes nearly 60 employees across all activities in more than 18 countries. To build on this momentum, all policies, procedures, training programs, and controls have been updated. An ethical culture is also developed through an original approach using videos, podcasts, and poster campaigns, rolled out simultaneously across all sites. This well-structured organization demonstrates the governing body’s commitment to conveying the importance of high ethical standards to our employees. In addition to this acceleration, the Group has taken other vital initiatives in a constantly changing environment, including strengthening third-party assessment and first-, second-, and third-level controls, and building on relationships with intermediaries, as discussed during OPmobility’s Compliance Day. PURCHASING, A KEY ROLE IN THE VALUE CHAIN The Group continually monitors the quality and reliability of its suppliers of goods and services to ensure that they adopt ethical practices in line with those described in its Supplier Charter, that they comply with applicable national and international laws, standards, and regulations, and that they are vigilant about the social and environmental impacts of their activities throughout the value chain. In addition, the business groups’ Purchasing and Quality teams conduct audits, particularly during supplier approval processes and when onboarding new suppliers to its approved vendor panel. As part of its search for partners which share its values, OPmobility developed a Sustainable Purchasing Guide in 2024. Having signed the United Nations Global Compact in 2003, the Group is also committed to promoting and supporting the fundamental principles of corporate social responsibility (CSR). Working with EcoVadis, and in line with its Supplier Charter, OPmobility emphasizes the obligations of regulatory compliance, integrity and business ethics, respect for human rights and working conditions, and the protection of health and safety. This approach to sustainable purchasing is described in the Group’s Vigilance Plan. ADDRESSING THE CHALLENGES OF CYBERSECURITY The mobility sector’s rapid digital transformation calls for stronger risk management measures and cybersecurity: protecting the data of the Group, its employees, partners, and suppliers. This also applies to user data, given the ultra-connectivity of vehicles and the evolution of standards and regulations, which vary from country to country. In light of these growing challenges, OPmobility, which established a Cybersecurity and Compliance department to protect its assets in 2018, is strengthening its ability to counter threats and cyberattacks. It uses cutting-edge technologies, such as post-quantum cryptography, and is raising employee awareness with the “Be Security Smart” program, launched in 2025. 100% of our 38,100 employees around the world are set to receive training in ethics and anti-corruption 98% of the Group’s employees took an online training module on the Code of Conduct KEY DATA 2025 was characterized by major advances in compliance, sustainable purchasing, and cybersecurity, to build long-term growth, underpinned by integrity and transparency. 2025 Integrated report | OPmobility | 53
