ESRS 2 – General Disclosures
GOV-1The role of the administrative, management and supervisory bodiesReported
The current Board of Directors was elected by the Extraordinary General Meeting on 22 December 2020 for a five-year term ending 22 December 2025. It has eleven members, without employee representation, comprising one executive and ten non-executive directors, of whom five are independent. Women represent approximately 27.27% of the Board, men approximately 72.73%, and independent non-executive directors approximately 45.45%. Members bring expertise in real estate development, infrastructure, corporate governance and strategic management. The Board is the highest governing body and holds ultimate responsibility for strategic management and sustainability performance, approving the corporate purpose, mission, Sustainable Development Strategy, policies and targets. Its role is reinforced by the Sustainable Development Committee (a mix of mostly independent non-executive members and senior executives), the Audit Committee, the Compensation and Nomination Committee, and the Investment Committee. The CFO oversees the Financial Statement including the Sustainability Statement, while the CIO is responsible for the Sustainability Statement. The Sustainability Department operates under the Investment Division. A Training Policy for Board Members and Executives supports ongoing education.
GOV-2Information provided to and sustainability matters addressed by the undertaking's administrative, management and supervisory bodiesReported
The Sustainable Development Committee meets regularly and oversees bimonthly reports from the Sustainability Department covering performance, risks, opportunities and progress toward objectives, shared with the CIO. The Board of Directors is informed about sustainability matters at least twice a year by the Committee and receives an annual report on the Committee's proceedings. In 2024 the Board reviewed and approved the Committee Rules of Procedure and its update, the Annual Financial Report including the Non-Financial Report 2023 with EU Taxonomy Report and Carbon Measurement, the Double Materiality Assessment process and result for 2023, and the Annual Sustainable Development Report 2023. The Committee, meeting at least every two months, also approved the Group's Decarbonisation Strategy and inclusion of sustainability criteria in new investment proposals, and was informed on EU Taxonomy alignment, Green Bond use of proceeds and GRESB results. The Audit Committee is briefed via the Internal Audit Service. Risk reporting is annual to the Board and quarterly to the Audit Committee by the Risk Management Unit. The 2024 Double Materiality Assessment was validated by senior management and the Committee and presented to the Board.
GOV-2(was GOV-3)Integration of sustainability-related performance in incentive schemesReported
The remuneration of Board members is set out in the Remuneration Policy, approved by the General Meeting on 21 June 2023 and valid for four years unless revised earlier. It was prepared in accordance with the EU Shareholder Rights Directive as incorporated into Greek law by Law 4548/2018, and also considers Law 4706/2020, the Articles of Association, the Corporate Governance Code and the Internal Regulations. At present the Group does not assess Board performance against specific sustainability-related targets, but states this will be evaluated in coming years with progress reported in future. Executive Directors receive annual variable remuneration directly linked to individual and Group performance and to specific targets aligned with strategic and financial objectives. At the start of each financial year the Compensation and Nomination Committee approves the performance criteria and their weighting for the short-term incentive (Bonus Plan). These criteria include financial and non-financial measures, with sustainability issues incorporated alongside KPIs such as EBITDA, NAV, cash flows and key milestones of The Ellinikon Project, tailored to individual responsibilities and evaluated at year end.
GOV-3(was GOV-4)Statement on due diligenceReported
The statement on due diligence maps the five core elements to sections of the Sustainability Statement: embedding due diligence in governance, strategy and business model (GOV-2, GOV-3, SBM-3); engaging with affected stakeholders in all key steps (GOV-2, SBM-2, IRO-1, MDR-P); identifying and assessing adverse impacts (SBM-3, IRO-1); taking actions to address them (MDR-A); and tracking effectiveness and communicating (MDR-M, MDR-T). As part of its commitment to the UN Guiding Principles, the Group conducts continuous human rights due diligence within its own operations and value chain, to assess, address and report on actual and potential human rights risks, reviewing and communicating efforts annually. It is dedicated to eliminating all forms of forced, bonded and compulsory labour, modern slavery and human trafficking, and explicitly prohibits child labour, observing minimum recruitment age limits. The Group strives to provide effective and fair remediation where it has caused or contributed to adverse impacts, paying particular attention to vulnerable groups. To broaden responsible practices across its supply chain, it has begun initiatives such as a sustainability-related questionnaire for evaluating potential Contractors for The Ellinikon Program.
GOV-4(was GOV-5)Risk management and internal controls over sustainability reportingReported
The Internal Control System comprises internal control mechanisms and procedures covering every activity, with the Board ensuring its adequate functioning under Law 4706/2020. The Risk Management System and Regulatory Compliance System are integral parts of it. The Audit Committee assists the Board on the effective operation of internal control including risk management, and supervises the Risk Management Unit. Internal Audit reports functionally to the Audit Committee and administratively to the CEO. Under the digital Enterprise Risk Management system and Risk Management Policy, risk severity is assessed from likelihood and effect to give an inherent risk score, ranked in four levels (Very High, High, Medium and Low), with likelihood ranging from 1% to 99% and effect considering financial, reputational, legal, health and safety, environmental and social factors. During 2024 the risk management and internal control processes for sustainability reporting were outlined in a dedicated Sustainability Statement Reporting Procedure, approved by the Sustainable Development Committee in March 2025, with identified risks integrated into the ERM program. Main reporting risks include insufficient or inaccurate data, unclear understanding of regulatory requirements, missed deadlines, disclosure of confidential information, inadequate collaboration with consultants, and insufficient coordination, each with mitigation strategies. Audits are performed by internal and external auditors.
SBM-1Strategy, business model and value chainReported
LAMDA Development S.A., listed on the main market of the Athens Stock Exchange, is a holding company specialising in the development, investment and management of real estate. The Group operates primarily in Greece and in Southeastern Europe, including Serbia, Romania and Montenegro. Its activities focus on The Ellinikon development at the former Elliniko airport, shopping centers (The Mall Athens, Golden Hall, Mediterranean Cosmos, Designer Outlet Athens, and the under-development Ellinikon Mall and Riviera Galleria), marinas (Flisvos, Agios Kosmas and the future Corfu Mega Yacht Marina), and other investments in real estate and energy. The value chain spans upstream partners, own operations and downstream stakeholders such as tenants and visitors. Since the start of its operation, sustainable development has been part of its strategy, aligned with the UN SDGs. In 2024 the Group developed a Decarbonisation Strategy following the Science Based Targets initiative and the Sectoral Decarbonization Approach, complying with the IPCC 1.5 degrees Celsius scenario. Its Ellinikon Program strategy, developed since 2021, rests on three pillars: Decarbonisation, Circularity, and People and Prosperity. The Group is active in NACE sectors F43, G47, H52, L68, K64 and R91. The final Strategy is expected in 2025.
SBM-2Interests and views of stakeholdersReported
The Group maintains constant communication with stakeholders in its internal and external environment, identifying key stakeholders as individuals or groups whose interests may be positively or negatively affected by its activities and business relationships across the value chain, with special consideration for regions where it operates and owns properties. The main stakeholder groups are employees; customers, buyers, consumers, visitors and end-users; suppliers, partners and contractors; shareholders, investors and capital and finance providers; wider society; local community and authorities; state and regulatory authorities; the business community; and the academic and scientific community. Engagement channels and frequency are documented for each group, ranging from daily to periodic. The Group's understanding of stakeholder interests is integrated into its strategy and business model through continuous engagement and monitoring. For The Ellinikon, the Stakeholder Engagement Plan, revised in 2024 and aligned with EBRD requirements including PR10, sets out identification, mapping, information disclosure, consultation, public participation and a grievance mechanism, monitored through performance indicators. Administrative, management and supervisory bodies receive timely insights from the Corporate Communication, Human Resources and Investor Relations departments, ensuring stakeholder feedback informs the management of sustainability-related impacts.
SBM-3Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business modelReported
The material impacts, risks and opportunities identified in the Double Materiality Assessment are presented in tables with a description, value chain position, time horizon, and, for impacts, whether actual or potential. Material topics span E1 Climate Change (including climate change adaptation, mitigation and energy), E2 Pollution of air and water, E3 Water and marine resources, E4 Biodiversity and Ecosystems, E5 Circular economy (resource inflows and waste), G1 Business conduct (corporate culture, corruption and bribery, and management of supplier relationships), S1 Own workforce, S3 Affected communities, and S4 Consumers and end-users. The present financial effect of the material risks and opportunities is not significant. As this is the first year of ESRS reporting, the Group has not made quantitative estimations of financial outcomes and has recognized time horizons only for potential impacts. Compared with the 2023 assessment, Pollution of water and Social inclusion of consumers and end-users were newly identified as material, while workers in the value chain, protection of whistleblowers, working time, social dialogue and freedom of association were not identified as material. Most IROs relate closely to the business model and are managed throughout the value chain. One risk, arising from a dependency on manpower shortage, does not stem from an identified impact.
IRO-1Description of the processes to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunitiesReported
The Group follows a comprehensive Double Materiality Analysis to identify, prioritize and monitor impacts on people and the environment as well as risks and opportunities, in accordance with the CSRD. It is a dynamic, annual process combining financial and impact materiality and integrating data from the internal Risk Registry. The methodology covers the entire value chain, upstream and downstream, plus own operations, and proceeds through understanding the business model and current state, peer benchmarking and sector analysis, stakeholder and value chain mapping, identification of actual and potential IROs, and assessment and scoring aligned with the CSRD and ESRS 1 and ESRS 2. Impact materiality scoring evaluates Scale, Scope, Irreversibility (only for negative impacts) and Likelihood (only for potential impacts). Financial materiality scoring considers Magnitude, Likelihood, and operational, regulatory or legal and reputational effects, across short-term (within one year), mid-term (one to five years) and long-term (five to ten years) horizons. The process is aligned with the ERM framework and Risk Management Registry. External stakeholders were engaged through an online survey, thresholds were applied to determine material topics, and results were validated by top management and the CEO, approved by the Sustainable Development Committee, and reported to the Board.
IRO-2Disclosure requirements in ESRS covered by the undertaking's sustainability statementReported
The Sustainability Statement is prepared on a consolidated basis in accordance with Law 5164/2024, which transposed the CSRD, with sustainability matters determined through the Double Materiality Assessment. Alongside the ESRS 2 General Disclosures (covering general basis of preparation, governance, strategy, double materiality and the IRO process), the statement reports the topical standards found material through the assessment: E1 Climate Change, E2 Pollution, E3 Water and marine resources, E4 Biodiversity and Ecosystems, E5 Circular economy, S1 Own workforce, S3 Affected communities, S4 Consumers and end-users, and G1 Business conduct. Once material matters were identified, the Group assessed the information to be reported for each based on the materiality of information under ESRS 1, applied at the Disclosure Requirement and datapoint level. For the first year of ESRS reporting, a phasing-in approach was applied to certain datapoint disclosures, such as the anticipated financial effects disclosure. Certain disclosure requirements, including GOV-1, GOV-2, GOV-3, GOV-5 and SBM-1, are covered through incorporation by reference to sections of the Corporate Governance Declaration and the Group Financial Position within the Board of Directors Management Report.
E1 – Climate Change
E1-1Transition plan for climate change mitigationReported
LAMDA has measured its total carbon footprint annually since 2022 under the GHG Protocol, externally verified to ISO 14064-1:2018, and built a Decarbonisation Strategy. In 2024 it adopted the SBTi Sectoral Decarbonization Approach (SDA) for buildings, setting near-term science-based targets aligned with a 1.5 degrees C pathway and the Paris Agreement, using a 2022 baseline and 2030 target year. Targets cover in-use operational building emissions intensity (69% cut), non-building operational absolute emissions (42% cut) and value chain intensity (52% cut). LAMDA commits to no new fossil fuel equipment from 2030, 80% renewable electricity by 2029 and 100% from 2030, and plans to submit targets to SBTi for validation in H1 2025. Estimated CAPEX of more than 10 million euros by 2030 supports decarbonization levers across energy efficiency, on-site PV, renewable procurement and value chain measures. LAMDA is not excluded from Paris-aligned benchmarks and invested no CapEx in coal, oil or gas in 2024.
E1-4(was E1-2)Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptationReported
The Group's Sustainable Development Policy, adopted by the Board of Directors, is the basis for managing climate change mitigation and adaptation impacts, risks and opportunities. It integrates the Group's vision and UN SDG commitments and ensures material environmental aspects including climate change are identified, assessed and managed per ESRS requirements. The policy highlights climate change in business activities and materiality analysis but does not specify actions on renewable energy deployment or energy efficiency; it also covers air quality, biodiversity, waste and resource efficiency. The Ellinikon project has its own Sustainable Development Policy addressing net zero, climate resilience, energy efficiency and renewable energy under an Energy and Carbon section. The Ellinikon Strategy, completed in 2021 and approved by the BoD in 2022, has three pillars: Decarbonization, Circularity, and People and Prosperity. Each shopping center also has an Environmental Policy supported by an ISO-certified Energy Management System.
E1-5(was E1-3)Actions and resources in relation to climate change policiesReported
LAMDA implemented energy efficiency measures (upgrading HVAC, central ventilation and lighting), fleet electrification to hybrid and electric vehicles, and increased renewable procurement. Under-development buildings target EPC A+ or at least 10% below NZEB energy consumption, with LEED certification pursued; the Building Complex for People with Disabilities achieved LEED Platinum in 2024. Net-metering rooftop PV was approved for The Mall Athens (0.39 MW), Golden Hall (1.6 MW), Mediterranean Cosmos (0.8 MW) and Designer Outlet Athens (0.346 MW), expected complete by February 2025, with 0.56 MW planned at Flisvos Marina in 2025; a 243 MW wind farm has been under development since 2023. ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certifications were completed in 2024. Initiatives are funded through own resources, a 2022 Green Bond and the RRF. Under the EU Taxonomy for 2024, Taxonomy-aligned proportions were: turnover 19.88% (132.21m euros), CapEx 50.05% (46.60m euros) and OpEx 32.63% (3.21m euros); eligible proportions were turnover 39.92%, CapEx 78.08% and OpEx 87.95%.
E1-6(was E1-4)Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptationReported
All GHG reduction targets use the SBTi methodology aligned with a sectoral decarbonization pathway and 1.5 degrees C, are gross (excluding removals, carbon credits and avoided emissions), and use a 2022 base year to be updated every five years from 2030. Three near-term 2030 targets cover 100% of GHG emissions: (1) reduce in-use operational building emissions intensity by 69%, from a 62.93 kgCO2e/m2 baseline to a targeted 19.55 kgCO2e/m2, covering Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 category 13; (2) reduce non-building operational absolute emissions by 42%, from a 999.2 tCO2e baseline to 579.9 tCO2e, covering remaining Scope 1 mobile combustion and Scope 2; (3) reduce all other corporate Scope 3 emissions intensity (excluding category 13) by 52%, from 46.80 kgCO2e/m2 to 22.65 kgCO2e/m2. Future upfront embodied carbon and lifetime in-use operational targets are being monitored, with embodied target-setting not expected until 2026. Targets are to be submitted to SBTi for third-party validation within 2025; 2025 is the first implementation year so no progress is yet tracked.
E1-7(was E1-5)Energy consumption and mixReported
Total energy consumption in 2024 was 55,107.49 MWh. Total fossil energy consumption was 51,389.49 MWh (93.25% of total), comprising 1,592.46 MWh from crude oil and petroleum products, 5,541.57 MWh from natural gas, zero from coal and other fossil sources, and 44,255.46 MWh of purchased electricity, heat, steam and cooling from fossil sources. Consumption from nuclear sources was zero. Total renewable energy consumption was 3,718.00 MWh (6.75% of total), all from purchased renewable electricity, heat, steam and cooling; fuel from renewable sources and self-generated non-fuel renewable energy were both zero. Non-renewable and renewable energy produced were reported as N/A. All 55,107.49 MWh came from activities in high climate impact sectors, against net revenue from those sectors of 621,892,348.60 euros, giving an energy intensity of 0.88 MWh per million euros. Total net revenue per the financial statements was 665,020,633.17 euros.
E1-8(was E1-6)Gross Scopes 1, 2, 3 and Total GHG emissionsReported
LAMDA has measured and verified its carbon footprint under ISO 14064-1:2018 since 2022 following the GHG Protocol, using IPCC AR5 100-year GWP values. For 2024, gross Scope 1 emissions were 1,782.02 tCO2e (0% from regulated emission trading schemes). Scope 2 emissions were 11,820.79 tCO2e location-based and 8,446.81 tCO2e market-based. Total gross Scope 3 emissions were 76,561.36 tCO2e, dominated by capital goods (35,694.24 tCO2e) and downstream leased assets (23,630.35 tCO2e), with purchased goods and services 7,097.06, fuel and energy-related activities 7,015.72, waste 2,611.78, employee commuting 299.19, business travel 115.57 and investments 97.45 tCO2e. Total GHG emissions were 90,164.15 tCO2e location-based and 86,790.17 tCO2e market-based. GHG intensity was 0.13 tCO2e per million euros of net revenue (both bases), on total net revenue of 665,020,633.17 euros. There were no biogenic CO2 emissions across the value chain.
E2 – Pollution
E2-1Policies related to pollutionReported
The Group manages pollution impacts, risks and opportunities through its Sustainable Development Policies and Environmental Policies rather than a separate standalone pollution policy. The Sustainable Development Policy for The Ellinikon focuses on minimizing air and noise pollution during construction and operation, and its Environmental Policy emphasizes preventing pollution across the value chain. Environmental Policies at the Shopping Centers center on pollution prevention and regulatory compliance, and the policy at Flisvos Marina focuses on pollution prevention with full compliance to local and international legislation. The Ellinikon strategy commits to avoiding and minimizing air, dust and noise pollution, establishing baseline conditions, keeping air pollution below European Environment Agency guideline limits, and keeping noise below approved Environmental Terms. As part of the ISO 14001:2015 certified EMS, an Environmental Monitoring Procedure covers monitoring, evaluation and mitigation of air and water pollution across the development and third parties.
E2-2Actions and resources related to pollutionReported
The Group prevents and manages pollution through ISO 14001 certified Environmental Management Systems in place across all entities. At The Ellinikon, actions run during the construction phase, with an Environmental Compliance Team and the Sustainability Department overseeing prevention and working with third-party contractors. Environmental protection clauses are built into subcontractor contracts, mandating compliance, prevention practices and monitoring. An Environmental Management Plan for the Construction Phase applies to all projects and monitors specific air and water pollution indicators. Sites use dust suppression, CE-certified machinery and controlled water discharge management to protect coastal water quality. For soil pollution prevention, the Group allocated 6 million euros for site remediation of contamination from past airport operations, appointing specialized contractors, plus spill prevention equipment and pollution control kits. Air actions include the Air Pollution Reduction Program and Dust Suppression Procedure. Flisvos Marina installed two Seabins, contracted a 24/7 marine pollution emergency response, and holds Clean Marina and Blue Flag distinctions.
E2-3Targets related to pollutionReported
The Group has not established measurable, outcome-oriented and time-bound targets to manage its material impacts, risks and opportunities regarding air pollution. However, it has identified specific targets and metrics to systematically monitor the effectiveness of its policies and actions. The primary objective for air and water pollution at construction sites is to comply with national limits and the approved Environmental Terms of The Ellinikon, backed by a strict annual monitoring process. On an annual basis the Group has set objectives to conduct 24-hour air pollution measurements at 100% of active construction sites, achieve 0% quantities of uncontrolled wastewater discharge, and record 0% exceedances of the legislation threshold values for dust emissions (PM2.5 and PM10). For the marine environment, the main objective is to avoid pollution and minimize impacts of construction works on seawater and phytobenthic communities, comparing measurement results against baseline conditions established before works began on the coastal front.
E2-4Pollution of air, water and soilReported
The Group tracks changes in pollution through regular air and water monitoring. For the reporting year it did not record any exceedances of the pollutant limits in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No. 166/2006, so it does not disclose pollutant volumes in mass units. Air monitoring at The Ellinikon runs monthly with calibrated certified equipment, covering daily 24-hour PM10, PM2.5 and PM1 and daily CO, NO2, O3, VOC and benzene measurements. Contractors' 2024 dust measurements covered 100% of sites across 1,313 measurements with 40 exceedances (3%); the Company's own measurements from June to December 2024 at nine points recorded 15 exceedances of 317 (5%), mainly from weather such as strong winds and African dust. Contractors' other air pollutant measurements totaled 842 with 27 exceedances (0.03%), linked to traffic not construction. Water pollution is assessed through dewatering effluent and seawater monitoring, with monthly assessment of about 40 pollutants; across 7 sites and 100% of sites requiring dewatering there were 0 uncontrolled discharges. Marine monitoring by the Hellenic Center for Marine Research found no impacts from construction.
E3 – Water and Marine Resources
E3-1Policies related to water and marine resourcesReported
The Group aligns its water management objectives with the development of The Ellinikon, following the Sustainable Development Policy, the Sustainable Development Strategy and the Environmental Management System. For The Ellinikon, the Sustainable Development Policy Statement identifies water and wastewater as one of the 11 objective areas under its sustainability strategy, aiming to maximize water efficiency and minimize wastewater production, positioned as a key objective within the Circularity pillar. The strategy recognizes smart water management as one of the key pillars of the Ellinikon Smart City principles, designed to ensure sustainable resource supply and regenerative systems for the broader region. The Environmental Policy of each operating asset (Golden Hall, The Mall Athens, Mediterranean Cosmos, Designer Outlet Athens) highlights rational use of water and raising public awareness of water conservation. A formal water policy has not yet been adopted, as there has been no need for extensive water-dedicated provisions, but the Group plans to update the Sustainable Development Policy within 2025 to comprehensively manage its water-related impacts, risks and opportunities.
E3-2Actions and resources related to water and marine resourcesReported
The Group manages water efficiently across Shopping Centers, marinas and new developments, focusing on monitoring, optimizing and reducing potable water use through water-saving mechanisms, alternative sources and wastewater management. During 2024 it recognized no negative impacts related to water consumption. At The Ellinikon, water is supplied by the EYDAP network and a Water Management Plan within the Environmental Management Plan for the Construction Phase includes a Water Saving Programme and Water Quality Assurance Programme, with measures such as reusing treated water for truck tire washing, self-closing faucets and recycling concrete-batching water; usage is monitored monthly. Projects seeking LEED, SITES or EU Taxonomy alignment set design-phase targets using water-efficient fixtures, smart irrigation, drought-resistant plants and rainwater reuse. A Wastewater Treatment Plant is planned to produce recycled irrigation water for the Metropolitan Park. In operations, Shopping Centers use EMS, flow regulation and leak inspections; Designer Outlet Athens treats wastewater on-site for irrigation, and Flisvos Marina applies automatic irrigation, remote water management and intermediate meters. Operations are in Greece, a water-stressed area.
E3-3Targets related to water and marine resourcesReported
At present the Group has not established measurable, overall outcome-oriented and time-bound targets to manage its material impacts, risks and opportunities concerning water consumption. However, it recognizes the need for monitoring with specific indicators to systematically assess policy and action effectiveness. In 2024 the Group made significant progress in developing its Sustainable Development Strategy across all operations and plans to establish key performance indicators. The under-development Strategy, set for completion in 2025, focuses on water consumption management and reduction across business activities. Currently the Sustainable Development Strategy of The Ellinikon outlines voluntary primary objectives for water consumption: designing buildings to reduce indoor water usage by installing 100% low-water-demand equipment in all under-development multitenant and commercial buildings; maximizing reuse of non-potable water sources; and meeting 100% of the irrigation needs for The Ellinikon Metropolitan Park with treated wastewater. Two additional voluntary objectives were established for water consumption per surface area and per number of visitors at the Shopping Centers under ISO certification of their EMS.
E3-4Water consumptionReported
For 2024 the Group reported total water consumption of 291,823.10 m3 and water recycled and reused of 16,860.00 m3. Against net revenue of 665,020,633.17 euro, the water intensity ratio was 0.43 m3 per million euro. Data is derived from water bills and meters covering all of the Group's activities and has not been audited by an external body apart from statutory auditors. The Group does not store water. Because its operations are located in Greece, considered a water-stressed area, the volumes of total water consumption and total water consumption in water risk areas, including areas with high water stress, are identical.
E4 – Biodiversity and Ecosystems
E4-1Transition plan on biodiversity and ecosystemsReported
The Group has not yet conducted a specific analysis of the resilience of its strategy and business model to biodiversity risks, consistent with the non-identification of any material negative biodiversity impact. LAMDA nonetheless recognises the importance of biodiversity and ecosystem resilience in its long-term sustainability strategy. Going forward, its approach will focus on gathering insights and measuring the impact of its activities on biodiversity, particularly in The Ellinikon area. This will include assessing potential biodiversity risks and identifying opportunities to mitigate adverse impacts, so that the business model evolves to be more resilient and aligned with biodiversity conservation goals over the coming years. The Group identified one material impact, one risk and one opportunity related to biodiversity, notably the positive impact of enhancing biodiversity through the redevelopment and greenery of the degraded Ellinikon site, and the risk of potential marine disruptions and pollution incidents.
E4-2Policies related to biodiversity and ecosystemsReported
LAMDA Development does not currently have a specific biodiversity and ecosystem protection policy, nor policies dedicated to sustainable land and ocean practices or deforestation, since no negative impacts have been identified. Its efforts are guided by the Sustainable Development Policy, which commits to minimising impacts on biodiversity, ecosystems, and the well-being of animals, plants and soil. For The Ellinikon, ecosystem preservation is addressed through the Sustainable Development Policy, the Environmental Policy, and the Sustainable Development Strategy, which prioritise restoration and regeneration of natural ecosystems and rehabilitation of green zones. Efforts are supported by an Environmental Management System, audited internally and externally during construction, and Environmental Monitoring Plans covering noise, vibration and air pollution. Contractors and major suppliers are assessed on environmental certifications such as ISO 14001. Material traceability is prioritised through EPDs and LCAs. Stakeholder mapping follows the EBRD environmental and social policy (EBRD PR10).
E4-3Actions and resources related to biodiversity and ecosystemsReported
The Group is committed to preserving and restoring soils and regenerating ecosystem functions, focused on The Ellinikon Metropolitan Pole and its Marinas. A key feature is a Metropolitan Park spanning 2 million square metres. Design of the current phase of The Ellinikon Park began in 2024, engaging local and international experts and using nature-based solutions. Strategies include a vegetation and soil management plan, soil enhancement studies, biomass reinforcement, prioritisation of native plants, and reduction of light pollution. The 75-acre Ellinikon Experience Park showcases over 900 new trees and 80,000 low-vegetation plants, plus 80 transplanted olive trees, and became the first new construction development in Europe to achieve SITES certification at Gold level in 2024. Planting plans include over 44,600 new trees across 59 species (more than 14,000 in the current phase) and temporary hosting of up to 3,000 existing trees. Soil and groundwater remediation at Elliniko is ongoing, with groundwater works estimated to complete in 2025. Flisvos Marina participates in the LifeGate PlasticLess program using Seabins.
E4-4Targets related to biodiversity and ecosystemsReported
Biodiversity and soil conservation are key objectives of The Ellinikon's Sustainable Development Strategy. The central strategic target is to achieve Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG), defined as ensuring biodiversity in the development area is improved compared with baseline conditions before development. The baseline is the pre-development state of land and sea recorded in 2020. Initial biodiversity studies, expected in 2025, will establish a scientific baseline, and BNG achievement will be assessed at key milestones, starting with completion of ongoing development projects in 2027. Supporting objectives include restoring and regenerating natural ecosystems, preserving ecological function, maintaining aquatic life diversity and population, preserving or transplanting existing healthy trees, maintaining and restoring soil characteristics, and remediating soil contamination to international standards. The Group uses qualitative and quantitative indicators such as species richness, habitat quality, soil quality index, and native species coverage. It has not relied on biodiversity offsets, focusing instead on restoration, regeneration, and enhancement of natural habitats.
E4-5Impact metrics related to biodiversity and ecosystems changeReported
The Group does not own, lease, or manage any sites located in or near biodiversity-sensitive areas, so there are no sites to disclose in relation to protected areas or key biodiversity areas. It has not identified any negative impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems, nor social consequences from biodiversity-related impacts, so no corrective measures were required. The Group discloses entity-specific metrics on the size of habitats restored. For The Ellinikon Building Complex for People with Disabilities: 8,000 plants and 150 trees (all 150 new), a total vegetated site area of 3,800 square metres (42% of total site area), and 1,580 square metres of green roofs. For The Ellinikon Experience Park: 80,000 plants and 900 trees (820 new trees, 80 transplanted olive trees), and a total vegetated site area of 30,000 square metres (40% of total site area). Data is derived from landscaping studies and has not been audited by an external body, except for the assurance provider.
E5 – Resource Use and Circular Economy
E5-1Policies related to resource use and circular economyReported
The Group's Sustainable Development Policy underscores managing the environmental impacts of its operations, focusing on resource efficiency (including raw materials and supplies) and effective waste management while ensuring regulatory compliance. For The Ellinikon, objectives for resource efficiency and circularity align with the Sustainable Development Policy, Environmental Policy, Sustainable Development Strategy and Environmental Management System. Circularity is a core pillar, with objectives to minimise resource consumption and responsibly source materials, and to design out waste and minimise waste to landfill. The Environmental Policy of The Ellinikon emphasises pollution prevention through eco-friendly technologies and promotes recycling, reuse and waste reduction, and is supported by a Waste Management Procedure covering segregation, storage, collection, transportation and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste during construction. Operating assets (Golden Hall, The Mall Athens, Mediterranean Cosmos, Designer Outlet Athens) and Flisvos Marina have Environmental Policies committing to reduced waste generation, sound disposal, and conservation of natural resources through reuse and recycling.
E5-2Actions and resources related to resource use and circular economyReported
Each operating asset and under-development project manages ongoing resource use and circular economy actions in coordination with the Group's Sustainability Department. All new Ellinikon developments provide monthly reports on waste consumption, management practices, and material usage. The Group has introduced recycling methods ensuring waste is sorted at source and disposed of responsibly. As of 2024, 98% of total waste produced is diverted from disposal. Waste sorting at source promotes recycling of packaging, glass, plastic, paper and inorganic waste, tracked through the Environmental Management System. At Flisvos Marina, 16 recycling streams are managed and green waste and coffee residues are composted.
