About <strong>Aboitiz</strong><br />
Sustainability Report<br />
Sustainability is a core pursuit for the <strong>Aboitiz</strong> Group. In 2010, we<br />
released our first <strong>sustainability</strong> report. It documented the various<br />
<strong>sustainability</strong> initiatives of our business operations --- raising<br />
awareness about addressing environmental and social concerns,<br />
and communicating to our stakeholders our programs and activities<br />
towards business <strong>sustainability</strong>.<br />
This second <strong>sustainability</strong> report encapsulates the various <strong>sustainability</strong><br />
programs and initiatives undertaken from January 1 to December 31,<br />
2010. Developed to conform to Global Reporting Initiatives (GRI) G3<br />
guidelines, this report is a self-declared C-level document and contains<br />
indicators on economic, social and environmental performance. Last<br />
year, too, we formalized our five <strong>sustainability</strong> pillars as guidelines for<br />
the business units’ own <strong>sustainability</strong> programs.<br />
This report features the projects and programs in support of each pillar.<br />
It does not tackle details of every subsidiary. This report also covers<br />
initiatives and performance of the different companies under the<br />
<strong>Aboitiz</strong> group. <strong>Aboitiz</strong> Equity Ventures, Inc. (AEV) in 2010 including<br />
<strong>Aboitiz</strong> <strong>Power</strong> Corporation<br />
a publicly owned holding company listed with the Philippine<br />
Stock Exchange that includes energy generation (hydroelectric,<br />
geothermal and thermal power) and distribution utilities.<br />
Food<br />
includes Pilmico Foods Corporation and Pilmico Animal<br />
Nutrition Corporation.<br />
Banking<br />
UnionBank of the Philippines and City Savings Bank.<br />
<strong>Aboitiz</strong> Transport System<br />
<strong>Aboitiz</strong> Transport System was sold at the end of 2010. However,<br />
it is mentioned in this report since it was still part of the group<br />
in 2010.<br />
Our financial and economic performances are discussed<br />
in detail in the 2010 Annual Report while our different<br />
corporate social responsibility activities are listed in the<br />
annual report of <strong>Aboitiz</strong> Foundation. Both reports may be<br />
accessed at www.aboitiz.com.<br />
Through this report we thank our markets, public and<br />
stakeholders, and reiterate our commitment to and sincerity in<br />
protecting the planet and its resources, our communities and<br />
stakeholders. We will also monitor and track our impact on the<br />
triple bottom line objectives of <strong>sustainability</strong>. We would also<br />
value your feedback on how to improve future reports. We are<br />
reachable at <strong>sustainability</strong>@aboitiz.com.<br />
A thorough discussion of AEV and all its business partners,<br />
subsidiaries and affiliates can be found in the annual report and<br />
the company website, www.aboitiz.com.<br />
