9、ear marked by new projects and significant achievements for Stellantis.Our mission to provide clean,safe,and affordable freedom of mobility to all has never been more important,and the resilience of our colleagues,under the leadership of Carlos Tavares,has made the difference.The story of Stellantis
10、 is one of boldness and progress,of always moving forward.We set the course,allocated resources,and strengthened our capabilities in the communities where we are present.This has allowed our 14 American,British,French,German,and Italian iconic brands to continue creating products that customers love
11、 and enjoy,while leading the industry in terms of margins and staying on our path toward achieving carbon neutrality by 2038.I would like to share the momentum across the entire organization in reaching our carbon neutrality ambition.This year,many teams worked internally and with external partners
12、to develop the most efficient and effective solutions to deliver on our commitments.We will continue to execute our decarbonization strategy to protect our Company,our employees,and generations to come.As part of wider society,Stellantis Foundation,through its philanthropic activities,partnered with
13、 CERN to inaugurate the Science Gateway in Geneva,a new emblematic center for science education and outreach.This initiative will allow students and families from around the world to understand the importance of scientific research and its applications,joining education programs that spark innovatio
14、n and excellence.Simultaneously,we continued to champion access and opportunity by supporting talent wherever it resides.In 2023,the Stellantis Student Awards concluded its second global program,celebrating more than 600 family members of Stellantis employees for their dedication to learning.Embraci
15、ng the diversity of backgrounds and perspectives we will continue to improve Stellantis,as we believe in the value of the dynamic engagement that happens when different ideas collide.The future is full of possibilities,and we are committed to offer the best mobility solutions within the industry.Im
16、sure that,thanks to the leadership team and to the support of our stakeholders,Stellantis is aiming for a sustainable tomorrow as a great company to work for.February 22,2024/s/John Elkann Chairman 4MESSAGE FROM THE CEOI often use the phrase“actions speak louder than words”and in 2023 we doubled dow
17、n on this mantra.We again demonstrated our ability to execute,to innovate and to transform into a sustainable mobility tech company ready to beat the odds and live its purpose:“Powered by our diversity,we lead the way the world moves.”Make no doubt,the enormous transformation happening now in our in
18、dustry is our opportunity-not a threat to shake up the status quo,redefine our destiny,and demonstrate we have the best teams to face fierce competition.We have the people and the mindset,even if we are not always perfect.Dare Forward 2030 is our bold executional roadmap,and on that track,despite th
19、e headwinds of all different kinds,we already have some incredible wins under our belt,creating value for our stakeholders.At the end of 2023,nearly one-third of our product portfolio was battery electric,and in 2024 we intend to have an additional 18 BEVs launched,bringing us to 48 electric models
20、total.This product offensive will support the big electrification push in North America and strengthen our European position.Notably,we launched great models like the Citron-C3,the most competitively priced B-segment EV produced in Europe,and the Jeep Avenger,which was awarded European Car of the Ye
21、ar 2023,among many other top honors.Plus,we remain neck-and-neck with the current leaders in electric vehicles in our Enlarged Europe region.This year also saw the launch of the first of four all-new,BEV-centric platforms.In July,we presented the STLA Medium benchmark platform debuting it on the Peu
22、geot E-3008,with best-in-class range of up to 700 kilometers(435 miles).The second platform,STLA Large,will be launched this year with 800 kilometers(500 miles)and fitted to exceed customer expectations.STLA Large is a highly flexible,BEV-native platform that will serve as the foundation for upcomin
23、g global vehicles in the D and E segments,and able to take multiple propulsion systems,including hybrid and internal combustion.To support our bold electrification ambition,we secured our raw materials needs through 2027 and are on the right pace in battery production.In December 2023,ACC started pr
24、eliminary production for Stellantis at its Billy-Berclau Douvrin Gigafactory(France)on schedule,paving the way for further industrial developments to meet demand,marked by the start of construction of the second block on the French site,before launching the construction of the first block in Germany
25、 and the double block in Italy.The joint venture gigafactories in N.A.are also progressing well with our partners Samsung SDI and LG Energy Solution.We also signed a deal with CATL for the supply of lithium iron phosphate battery cells and modules,further expanding our diverse battery chemistry port
26、folio.Flexibility,execution,resilience and agility remain core tenants of the Stellantis mentality and with our several tech and new model announcements the Company is poised to profitably navigate customer demand,market fluctuations and political shifts.In fact,we delivered continued growth outside
27、 Enlarged Europe and North America with our third engine delivering a 13 percent increase in Net revenues.This year,we also invested 1.4 billion in Zhejiang Leapmotor Technology Co.Ltd(“Leapmotor”),a pure play new energy vehicle original equipment manufacturer(“NEV OEM”),and we now hold approximatel
28、y 21 percent equity,giving us a leading role in supporting their promising growth in China as well as global expansion opportunities through the new Leapmotor International joint venture for which we will manage.We are actively addressing a white space in our business model and can now benefit from
29、Leapmotors competitiveness both in China and abroad.Building on our growth story,the Stellantis Pro One commercial vehicles team achieved market share leadership in EU30 and South America and is the undisputed leader in EU30 BEV sales with 38.8 percent BEV market share.The business is on track to ac
30、hieve its objectives with a completely updated and expanded line-up including internal combustion,battery electric,fuel cell hydrogen and range extended variants.Critical to our long-term sustainability,we opened our first Circular Economy Hub in Italy to bring together a powerhouse of skills and ac
31、tivities aimed at creating a high-performing center of excellence.Our goal is to industrialize the recovery and sustainable reuse of materials,while building innovative technologies and advanced capabilities,to safeguard our shared future.And just before the year concluded,we successfully launched o
32、ur employee share purchase plan Shares to Win-in Italy and France and look forward to it being extended to several other countries in 2024.5Importantly,our record full year 2023 financial results are leading the pack.Net revenues grew 6 percent y-o-y to 189.5 billion,Net profit rose 11 percent to 18
33、.6 billion,and industrial free cash flows increased 19 percent y-o-y to 12.9 billion.In the effort to support a permanent dialogue with external stakeholders,we hosted our first Freedom of Mobility Forum in 2023 on the topic:“In a decarbonized world,will freedom of mobility be affordable to a happy
34、few only?”.The lively debate reflected the rich diversity in opinions from our esteemed panelists.We are now gearing up for the second annual debate coming on April 3,2024.Last,but certainly not least,I warmly thank all Stellantis employees,our shareholders and the many stakeholders who are supporti
35、ng our continued success.Of course,there will be little chance to relax in 2024 with challenges coming quick and fast but we remain committed to preserving freedom of mobility.Because this is what Stellantis was made to do.Thank you.February 22,2024/s/Carlos TavaresChief Executive Officer6BOARD REPO

110、 the accounting acquirer(reverse acquisition accounting).The acquisition method of accounting under IFRS 3 applies the fair value concepts defined in IFRS 13 and requires,among other things,that the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in a business combination be recognized by the acquirer a
111、t their fair values as of the merger date,which for accounting purposes was January 17,2021.As a result,the acquisition method of accounting has been applied and the assets and liabilities of FCA have been recognized at the merger acquisition date at their respective fair values,with limited excepti
112、ons as permitted by IFRS 3.The excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of FCAs assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill.Refer to Note 3,Scope of consolidation,within the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere within this report for addit

118、 of reacquired rights has been valued based on the discounted cash flows expected from the related agreement.Amortization of intangible assets has been calculated on the fair value taking into account the estimated remaining useful life of the acquired assets.The related change in amortization as a
119、result of the fair value adjustment to intangible assets was a net decrease in amortization expense of 40 million for the period January 1 to January 16,2021,of which 40 million has been recorded within Research and development costs in relation to capitalized research and development costs and othe

150、lt of the merger of FCA and PSA,each of which were leading independent global automotive groups prior to the merger.Fiat S.p.A.,the predecessor to FCA,was founded as Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino in July 1899 in Turin,Italy as an automobile manufacturer.Fiat grew in Italy and internationally i
151、n the following decades both organically and through the acquisition of several prominent brands and manufacturers including Lancia,Alfa Romeo,Maserati and Ferrari.In 2009,FCA US LLC,then known as Chrysler Group LLC(“FCA US”),acquired the principal operating assets of the former Chrysler LLC as part
