The role of the administrative, management and supervisory bodies
BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The Board of Directors and the Chairman of the Board of Directors are appointed by the Shareholders' Meeting. In order to allow the presence of Directors designated by minority shareholders, the appointment of Directors takes place through the slate voting system. The current Board of Directors, appointed in May 2023 until the Shareholders' Meeting called to approve the 2025 financial statement, is composed of 9 members. Three Directors were appointed by shareholders other than the controlling one, thus guaranteeing minorities a higher number of representatives than required by law.
ENI'S GOVERNANCE MODEL
Eni's Corporate Governance is based on the traditional Italian model, which – without prejudice to the tasks of the Shareholders' Meeting – assigns responsibility for management to the Board of Directors, supervisory functions to the Board of Statutory Auditors (BoSA) and those of statutory audit to the Independent Auditors. The Board has entrusted the management of the Company to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), who was last appointed on May 11, 2023, reserving the most significant strategic, operational and organisational responsibilities, in particular in the areas of governance, sustainability, internal control and risk management.
The Board of Directors has set up four internal committees, with preparatory, consultative and advisory functions: the Control and Risk Committee, the Remuneration Committee, the Nomination Committee and the Sustainability and Scenarios Committee, which report, through their respective Chairmen, at each meeting of the Board on the main issues examined.
The Board also confirmed the attribution to the Chairman of the Board of Directors of a significant role in internal controls, in particular with reference to the Internal Audit function, of which it proposes to the Board of Directors, in agreement with the CEO, appointment, dismissal, remuneration and resources, directly managing the relationship on behalf of the Board; the Chairman of the Board of Directors is also involved in the appointment processes of the other main Eni persons in charge of internal controls and risk management, such as the Officer in Charge of preparing the Company's financial reports, the members of the Supervisory Body, the Head of Integrated Risk Management and the Head of Integrated Compliance.
Composition and Diversity
The composition of the Board is also diversified in gender terms, in accordance with the provisions of applicable law and the By-laws, which were amended in February 2020 in view of the renewal of the corporate bodies. In particular, for 6 consecutive terms, the administrative and supervisory bodies must be composed of at least 2/5 of the less represented gender. The number of independent Directors present on the Board (7 out of the 9 Directors in office, of which 8 are non-executive and including the Chairman of the Board of Directors) is confirmed to be higher than the provisions of the By-laws and the Governance Code.
| Composition Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Total Directors | 9 |
| Independent Directors | 7 (78%) |
| Female Directors | 4 (44%) |
| Male Directors | 5 (56%) |
| Directors from Minority Slate | 3 (33%) |
| Directors from Majority Slate | 6 (67%) |

Risk management and internal controls over sustainability reporting
Integrated Risk Management Model
Eni has developed and adopted an Integrated Risk Management Model (IRM Model) supporting Eni's management awareness in taking risk-informed decisions through risk assessment and analysis with an integrated, comprehensive and prospective vision.
The IRM Model is based on a system of methodologies and skills that leverages on criteria ensuring consistency of the evaluations to improve the effectiveness of the analyses, adequacy of support for the main decision-making processes (definition of the Strategic Plan) and to guarantee the disclosure to the administration and control bodies.
Three-Level Control System
The IRM Model is characterized by a structured approach, based on international best practices and considering the guidelines of the Internal Control and Risk Management System, that is structured on three control levels:
| Control Level | Responsibility | Function |
|---|---|---|
| 1st Level | Line Management/Risk Owner (Business & Support Process) | Identification and management of relevant risks of competence and related controls |
| 2nd Level | Specialist Functions (Integrated Risk Management, Integrated Compliance, Corporate Affairs and Governance, HSE, etc.) | Monitoring of main risk categories and adequacy of controls |
| 3rd Level | Internal Audit Function | Assurance and independent advisory on the 1st and 2nd levels and internal control system as a whole |
Risk Assessment Process
The IRM process ensures the detection, consolidation and analysis of all Eni's risks and supports the BoD to verify the compatibility of the risk profile with the strategic targets, also in a medium/long-term approach.
In 2024, two assessment sessions were performed: the Annual Risk Assessment performed in the first half of the year and in the second half of the year the 4Y Plan Risk Assessment, to support the elaboration process of the 4Y Strategic Plan. The assessment involved all business lines in Italy and abroad (over 40 Countries). The two assessment results were submitted to Eni's management and control bodies in July 2024 and December 2024.
Three monitoring processes were performed on Eni's top risks. The monitoring of such risks and the relevant treatment plans allows to analyze the risks evolution and the progress in the implementation of specific treatment measures planned by management. The top risks monitoring results were submitted to the management and control bodies in March, July and October 2024.
Top Risks Portfolio
Eni's top risks portfolio consists of 20 risks classified in: (i) external risks, (ii) strategic risks and, finally, (iii) operational risks.
Governance Structure
Governance attributes a central role to the Board of Directors (BoD) which defines, on the basis of the analyses proposed by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and with the support of the Control and Risk Committee (CCR), with reference to the four-year Strategic Plan, the nature and level of risk compatible with the company's strategic objectives.

Description of the processes to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities
Integrated Risk Management Process
Eni has developed and adopted an Integrated Risk Management Model (IRM Model) supporting Eni's management awareness in taking risk-informed decisions through risk assessment and analysis with an integrated, comprehensive and prospective vision.
The IRM Model is based on a system of methodologies and skills that leverages on criteria ensuring consistency of the evaluations to improve the effectiveness of the analyses, adequacy of support for the main decision-making processes (definition of the Strategic Plan) and to guarantee the disclosure to the administration and control bodies.
IRM Sub-processes
The process, regulated by the Global Procedure "Integrated Risk Management" is continuous, dynamic and includes the following sub-processes:
i) Risk strategy; ii) Integrated Risk Assessment; iii) Integrated Country Risk; iv) Integrated Project & M&A Risk Management.
Assessment Methodology
The risks are assessed with quantitative and qualitative tools considering both the likelihood of occurrence and the impacts that may results from the occurrence of the risk in a defined time horizon.
The assessment usually is expressed as both an inherent and a residual level (taking into account the effectiveness of the mitigation actions) and allows to measure the impact with respect to the achievement of the objectives of the Strategic Plan and for the whole life as regards the business.
The risks are represented on the basis of the likelihood of occurrence and the impact on matrices that allow their comparison and classification by relevance. Risks with economic/financial impact can be also analyzed in an integrated perspective on the basis of quantitative models that allow to define on a statistical basis the distribution of cash flows at risk or to simulate the aggregate impact of risks in the face of hypothetical future scenarios (what if analysis or stress test).
2024 Assessment Activities
In 2024, two assessment sessions were performed:
- Annual Risk Assessment performed in the first half of the year
- 4Y Plan Risk Assessment in the second half of the year, to support the elaboration process of the 4Y Strategic Plan
The assessment involved all business lines in Italy and abroad (over 40 Countries). The two assessment results were submitted to Eni's management and control bodies in July 2024 and December 2024.
Monitoring Process
Three monitoring processes were performed on Eni's top risks. The monitoring of such risks and the relevant treatment plans allows to analyze the risks evolution (through the update of appropriate indicators) and the progress in the implementation of specific treatment measures planned by management. The top risks monitoring results were submitted to the management and control bodies in March, July and October 2024.
Materiality Analysis Integration
The operation of the business model is based on the best possible use of all resources available to the organization through the implementation of the strategy. This includes:
- Materiality analysis that explores the most significant impacts generated by Eni on the economy, environment and people, including those on human rights
- Integrated Risk Management process, which is functional to ensure, through the assessment and analysis of the risks and opportunities of the reference context, informed and strategic decisions
Country and Project Risk Assessment
Integrated Country Risk (ICR): Activities regarding the integrated analysis of existing risks in the main Countries of presence or potential interest
Integrated Project & M&A Risk Management: Activities to support the decision-making process for the authorization of investment projects and main transactions
Governance Integration
Governance attributes a central role to the Board of Directors (BoD) which defines, on the basis of the analyses proposed by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and with the support of the Control and Risk Committee (CCR), with reference to the four-year Strategic Plan, the nature and level of risk compatible with the company's strategic objectives, including in its assessments all the elements that may be relevant with a view to the sustainable success of the company.

Waste Management Overview
Eni Rewind manages waste treatment for the purpose of remediation activities at Eni sites and owned by Eni Rewind. The company managed a total of about 1.9 million tons of waste in 2024, an increase compared to 2023, sending it for recovery or disposal at external plants. This increase is due to the increase in liquid waste, managed for disposal at external plants, produced in the Refining Evolution and Transformation (REVT) area for the emergency safety measures (MISE) activities of the Sannazzaro site and the land produced in the REVT area in Livorno, for the preparatory activities for the construction of the Biorefinery.
Waste Recovery Performance
The recovery index (ratio of recovered/recoverable waste) was 76.3%, up from 2023 (75%), due to the analytical and granulometric characteristics found in the waste managed during characterization, which made it possible to maximize the start of waste recovery.
Hazardous waste amounts to 27% of the total.
Compared to the total volumes managed by Eni Rewind in 2024, the part relating to Eni customers currently makes up about 80% of the total.
