Declaration of Compliance
In December 2025, the Executive and Supervisory Boards issued the Declaration of Compliance with the recommendations of the German Corporate Governance Code in the applicable version dated April 28, 2022 (“Code”) in accordance with § 161 AktG. Beiersdorf AG fulfills all the recommendations made in the Code with a small number of exceptions, as well as all the suggestions. There are no Code recommendations that do not apply to Beiersdorf due to overriding legal stipulations. The auditor must promptly inform the Supervisory Board of any facts identified during the audit that reveal an inaccuracy in the Declaration of Compliance submitted by the Executive Board and Supervisory Board and must note these in the audit report. The 2025 Declaration of Compliance was also made permanently accessible to the public on the company’s website at www.beiersdorf.com/declaration_of_compliance.
