Cellnex’s Whistleblowing Channel allows both internal and external stakeholders, including any third party, wishing to report concerns about unlawful behaviour or infringements that disobey the current legislation and/or other internal regulations within the company. The reporting mechanisms are accessible via multiple channels, including the Cellnex Intranet, email, mailing address and telephone, ensuring that individuals can easily raise concerns from anywhere in the world. The Whistleblowing Channel is managed by an independent expert third party, PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), acting as Channel Manager and ensuring confidentiality and impartiality of the process. The Channel Manager receives the initial communication and guarantees that it is transferred to the Committee of Ethics and Compliance (CEC) in due time. The CEC as the decision-making body, will investigate and adopt a final resolution that closes the procedure. The Channel Manager will then be responsible for communicating the resolution to the whistleblower in due time and form. To promote the use of the Channel, Cellnex has implemented extensive training, communication and awareness initiatives. These efforts ensure that all employees are fully informed about the existence, purpose, and proper use of the Whistleblowing Channel. In addition, employees receive training on the process of submitting communications and on the importance of raising ethical issues promptly. The commitment to training extends to the staff receiving the reports, who are prepared to handle concerns professionally, following legal guidelines and internal protocols.

Cellnex continuously adapts its internal payment processes, implementing measures to mitigate late payments in commercial transactions. These processes are implemented locally in compliance with legal and tax requirements. As a result, supplier contracts in 2024 include payment terms that are equal to, shorter than, or closely aligned with the standard payment terms in each country. However, different terms may be agreed upon by the parties. The average payment period to suppliers is defined as the time elapsed from the invoice date to the actual payment of the transaction. It should be noted that if a specific agreement with a supplier establishes payment terms that exceed the local standard payment term, payments to that supplier will be classified as late payment, even if they comply with the agreed terms between Cellnex and the supplier. Additionally, late payments resulting from administrative issues on the part of either Cellnex or the supplier are also reflected as late payments.
