A1 Telekom Austria Group: Top Result for the "Combined Annual Report 2019" by Independent International Analysis “Comprend”

Overall best ranked telecommunications company and best Austrian company

  • Overall best ranked telecommunications company and best Austrian company
The A1 Telekom Austria Group published its report for the business year 2019 as a combined annual report and sustainability report – as already since 2017. Sustainability aspects are incorporated directly into the individual chapters or topics instead of covering them separately. Thus, the report allows an integrated and yet compact view on economic, ecological and social aspects of sustainable management. In the 24th edition of the independent best-practice study "Annual Report on Annual Reports" by "Comprend", this report now achieved extremely gratifying placements in both rating and ranking.

An external, international panel consisting of financial and communications experts analyzed and evaluated the categories "Communication & Style, Operations & Sustainability, Strategy & Leadership, Figures & Financials and Investors & Governance". After screening 1,000 annual reports, the panel gave the A1 Telekom Austria Group's "Combined Annual Report 2019" an excellent rating (A-) and ranked it 55th, which also means best placed telecommunications company and best Austrian company.

The "Annual Report on Annual Reports" is considered one of the most recognized international evaluations of annual reports and a top 100 ranking is a respectable proof of quality. Further information on the Comprend analysis:
