About this report

This Annual Report integrates all the main economic and social data from the DELA Natura in 2024 and covers the book year from 1 January to 31 December.

In view of Title 9, Book 2 DCC and RJ400.104: The chapters ‘In brief’, ‘Management Board report’ and ‘Annexes’ jointly make up the ‘Management Board Report’.

The selection of the reported indicators in the Executive Board Report is based on our business model, internal and external developments, and meetings with various stakeholders.

The metrics reported originate from our information systems, supported by internal control and monitoring systems, as well as supplier data and other sources. Some metrics are also reported in the existing internal reporting cycle on a monthly and quarterly basis. Other metrics are reported annually. These data points have been collected, reviewed and consolidated by our Reporting & Control department, with final validation by the responsible line managers. Any changes to the definitions, measuring methods or inherent limitations in the data are indicated, as is the use of extrapolation and estimates.

The Management Board report was reviewed by various stakeholders during its writing and delivery, including several members of the Management Board, the Supervisory Board and DELA’s confidential committee. The financial statements was reviewed by the external accountant in accordance with legal requirements.
