23 - 2020 INTEGRATED REPORT VISION AND STRATEGY SHARED VALUE CREATION WITH OUR STAKEHOLDERS Thales profitable growth model is based on shared values. The Group’s economic success generates profits for the Company as a whole, which is essential to pursuing a resilient strategy. Value sharing is embodied not only financially but more widely, in the Group’s contribution to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. A CREDIT FACILITY LINKED TO ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE In December 2020, for the first time, Thales included climate targets in the terms and conditions of the new revolving credit facility of €1.5 billion signed with 17 international banks. Its rate will be linked to the objective of reducing Thales’s direct and indirect carbon footprint (Scopes 1, 2 and 3), in line with the lowcarbon policy implemented by the Group and its commitments over the next ten years. Depending on whether or not these objectives are achieved, the cost of the syndicated loan will be adjusted downwards or upwards, thanks to a bonus/penalty system. USING TECHNOLOGY TO BETTER COMBAT COVID-19 All over the world, Thales employees have contributed to the fight against Covid-19 and its effects, either through the Group’s actions or through individual initiatives. Thanks to their technical skills, many employees have joined local or national citizen initiatives to produce masks and visors. In the United Kingdom, Thales, in partnership with around twenty other companies, has produced ventilators for hospitals. Thales’s Artificial Intelligence capabilities were also called upon to develop, in record time, an AI-based solution applied to chest CT-scans. It makes it possible to immediately provide an initial recommendation for diagnosis and criticality of the pulmonary disorders following the acquisition of the image and thus to adapt the care of the patient according to the medical emergency. PROTECT AND GUARANTEE THE IDENTITY OF CITIZENS At a time of increasing digital exchanges, the issue of identity has never been more vital for citizens, States or third parties (merchant sites, transport companies, banking systems, telephony operators, etc.). The digital identity solutions developed by Thales and adopted by many countries (Belgium, Thailand, Australia, Texas, etc.) guarantee the identity of a person while protecting their personal data. This certification of identity is the foundation of the relationship of trust and the basis of the proper functioning of a State. HELPING INNOVATIVE STARTUPS GROW The European Innovation Council (EIC), Thales and Thales Alenia Space organised the first virtual EIC Corporate Day, which brought together 14 of the most innovative startups in Europe. These days were an opportunity to connect companies, innovative entrepreneurs and managers and decision- makers from all sectors. At the global level, Thales has also launched the international AI@Centech acceleration programme for startups that provide solutions using Artificial Intelligence (AI). By providing them with advice, expertise and access to Thales’s technological platforms, this programme helps them develop cutting- edge solutions for the Group’s markets while supporting their development.
