The Annual Report will be available to the public under the terms of the law at the Company’s registered office, on the Company’s website, www.saipem.com, from the authorised storage facility “eMarket STORAGE” (www.emarketstorage.com), and on Borsa Italiana SpA’s website.

The Sustainability Report, based on the strategic areas of the four-year sustainability plan, describes the commitments and goals for business sustainability within the energy transition and for sustainable mobility through the pursuit, in particular, of the achievement of Net Zero objectives, safeguarding human rights, diversity and inclusion, local development and business ethics, all factors that contribute to the creation of shared value by the Company in the short and long term. These documents will be published together with the Annual Report.

 

Appointment of a new Board Director

Today’s Board of Directors, received the opinion of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee and with the approval of the Board of Statutory Auditors, appointed by cooption, pursuant to art. 2386, paragraph one, of the Italian Civil Code, Ms. Monica Girardi as non-executive and independent Board Director, who will hold office until the next Shareholders’ Meeting, at which the Shareholders will be called upon to resolve, among other things, on the proposal to confirm Monica Girardi as a Saipem Board Director.

The invitation to consider the candidacy of Monica Girardi for the independent assessment by the Board of Directors of Saipem SpA, was received from the “Comitato dei Gestori” by letter transmitted on 20 February 2026.

The Board of Directors therefore assessed, on the basis of the information available and the statements made and confirmed that Ms. Monica Girardi meets the independence requirements. To the best of the Company's knowledge, Ms. Monica Girardi does not hold any shares in the Company. Her curriculum vitae is published on the Company's website at www.saipem.com, under the "Governance" section.

At the same meeting, the Board of Directors also approved an update to the composition of the Committees, which became necessary following the resignation of the Board Director Roberto Diacetti, formerly Chairman of the Related Parties Committee and member of the Sustainability, Scenarios and Governance Committee.

The Board of Directors resolved to appoint Patrizia Giangualano as Chairman of the Related Parties Committee and Monica Girardi as a member of the same Related Parties Committee and Mariano Mossa as a member of the Sustainability, Scenarios and Governance Committee.

Renewal of the Board of Statutory Auditors

It should also be noted that, with the approval by the General Shareholders’ Meeting of the Financial Statements as of 31 December 2025, the current mandate of the Board of Statutory Auditors, appointed by the Shareholders’ Meeting of 3 May 2023, will expire. Therefore, the General Shareholders’ Meeting will be called to appoint a new Board of Statutory Auditors and its Chairman for the years 2026-2028, establishing the related remuneration for the duration of their mandate.

2026-2029 Deferred Phantom Share Plan

The Board of Directors has also resolved, following a proposal of the Remuneration and Nomination Committee and consulted the Board of Statutory Auditors pursuant to Article 2389 of the Civil Code, to submit the proposal of adoption of the 2026-2029 Deferred Phantom Share Plan to the next General Shareholders' Meeting. The Plan has been designed with the aim of maintaining a proper medium-long term perspective of the managerial incentive system, which is necessary to ensure the retention of the resources most directly responsible for the Company’s results, ensuring also appropriate alignment with the corporate priorities and a systemic mechanism mirroring the shareholder’s risk profile.

The Plan provides for the vesting of a cash incentive in 2029 in favour of the resources who are beneficiaries of the short-term incentive linked to the annual performance targets assigned for the year 2026. The actual vesting of the award arising from the valuation of the Phantom Shares is therefore functionally linked (i) to the 2026 Short-Term Variable Incentive Plan, which serves as an access condition for the allocation of the Phantom Shares, and (ii) to the performance of the Saipem share price.

The Plan applies to the management of Saipem SpA and its subsidiaries and is to be considered of “particular relevance” pursuant to Article 84-bis, paragraph 2, of the Issuers’ Regulation, as it is also intended for the individuals referred to in Article 114-bis of the Consolidated Financial Act, and in particular for the Chief Executive Officer–General Manager and the Senior Managers with Strategic Responsibilities of Saipem.

The Plan is structured over an overall time horizon of three-year, in line with international best practice in the industrial sector, corresponding to the Vesting Period.

The specific terms and conditions of the Plan are described in the Information Document, prepared pursuant to Article 114-bis of the Consolidated Financial Act and Article 84-bis, paragraph 2, of Consob’s Issuers’ Regulation, which will be made available to the public within the time limits and in accordance with the procedures provided for by the applicable legislation.

These include, but are not limited to: exchange and interest rate fluctuations, commodity price volatility, credit and liquidity risks, HSE risks, the levels of capital expenditure in the oil industry and other sectors, political instability in areas where the Group operates, actions by competitors, success of commercial transactions, risks associated with the execution of projects (including pandemic risks, geopolitical risks, supply chain risks and those risks related to ongoing investment projects), in addition to changes in stakeholders’ expectations and other changes affecting business conditions. Actual results could therefore differ materially from the forward-looking statements. The financial reports contain in-depth analyses of some of the aforementioned risks. Forward-looking statements and data are to be considered in the context of the date of their release.
