REPORTING SCOPE AND BOUNDARY

OUR APPROACH TO MATERIALITY
This report provides information that we believe is of material interest to current and prospective investors, and to any other stakeholder who wishes to make an informed assessment of Italtile's ability to generate value over the short, medium and long term. We have sought to ensure that all the information in this report relates to matters that have a material bearing on value creation at Italtile. Understanding our business and our business model (Creating value through our business model) forms the basis for appreciating how Italtile creates value, and identifying those issues impacting value. Our ability to create value is determined by the quality of our response to our operating context (The environment we operate in), the priority risks and opportunities facing our business (Strategic management of material risks), and the material interests of our key stakeholders (Our stakeholders). Making an informed assessment of the quality of our response requires an appreciation of our strategy (Strategic focus areas), our performance (Performance review), the Italtile Limited Board of directors ("Board") (Our Board of directors), and our governance practices (Corporate governance).
