In the normal course of business, the Group conducts transactions with different entities or parties related to it.
Remunerations of the Board of Directors
The Business Companies Act of Argentina (Law N° 19,550), provides that the remuneration to the Board of Directors, where it is not set forth in the Company’s by-laws, shall be fixed by the Shareholders' Meetings. The maximum amount of remuneration that the members of the Board are allowed to receive, including salary and other performance-based remuneration of permanent technical-administrative functions, may not exceed 25% of the profits.
Such maximum amount is limited to 5% where no dividends are distributed to the Shareholders, and will be increased proportionately to the distribution, until reaching such cap where total profits are distributed, except that such remunerations were expressly agreed by the Shareholders' Meeting, for which purpose the matter must be included as one of the items on the agenda. Some of the Group's Directors are hired under the Employment Contract Law N° 20,744. This Act rules on certain conditions of the work relationship, including remuneration, salary protection, working hours, vacations, paid leaves, minimum age requirements, workmen protection and forms of suspension and contract termination. The remuneration of directors for each fiscal year is based on the provisions established by the Business Companies Act, taking into consideration whether such directors perform technical-administrative functions and depending on the results recorded during the fiscal year. Once such amounts are determined, they should be approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting.
Senior Management remuneration
The members of the Group’s senior management are appointed and removed by the Board of Directors and perform functions in accordance with the instructions delivered by the Board itself.
The Company’s Senior Management is composed of as follows:
The total remuneration paid to members of senior management for their functions consists of a fixed salary that takes account of the manager's background capacity and experience, plus an annual bonus based on their individual performance and the Group's results. Members of senior management participate in defined contributions and share-based incentive plans that are described in Note 29.
The aggregate compensation to the Senior Management for the year ended June 30, 2025 amounts to ARS 943.
Corporate Service Agreement with Cresud
Considering that IRSA and Cresud have operating overlapping areas, the Board of Directors considered it convenient to implement alternatives that allow reducing certain fixed costs of its activity, in order to reduce its impact on operating results, taking advantage of and optimizing the individual efficiencies of each of the companies in the different areas that make up the operational administration.
For this purpose, on June 30, 2004, a Framework Agreement for the Exchange of Corporate Services (“Framework Agreement”) was signed, between IRSA, Cresud and IRSA CP. On December 22, 2021, were held the shareholders' meeting approving the merger by absorption of IRSA and IRSA CP, for which IRSA, in its capacity as absorbing company, is the successor of all the rights and obligations assumed by IRSA CP by the Framework Agreement. The last modification to the Framework Agreement was made on July 12, 2022.
Under this Framework Agreement, corporate services are currently provided for different areas including: Corporate Human Resources, Administration and Finance, Planning, Institutional Relations, Compliance and others.
Under this agreement, the companies entrusted an external consultant with the semi-annual review and evaluation of the criteria used in the process of apportionment of costs to be settled for corporate services, as well as the distribution bases and supporting documentation used in the aforementioned process, through the preparation of a semi-annual report.
It should be noted that the operation under comment allows Cresud and IRSA to maintain absolute independence and confidentiality in their strategic and commercial decisions, being the allocation of costs and benefits made on the basis of operational efficiency and equity, without pursuing individual economic benefits for each of the companies.
