To achieve this, we pioneer standards and practices that reflect an understanding and respect for the importance of sustainability. Following the success of the Makati Central Business District (Makati CBD), Ayala Alabang, Cebu Park District, Bonifacio Global City (BGC), and Nuvali, we continue to increase our footprint in building estates that benefit more people nationwide. With over 8,000 hectares of land bank, we are now present in 45 growth centers across the country, offering a balanced and complementary mix of residential spaces, shopping centers, offices, hotels and resorts, convenience stores, and healthcare facilities. Our Vision and Mission Our vision is to enhance our standing and reputation as the Philippines’ leading real estate developer, and to be a strong partner in nation-building.

This report complements our 2014 Annual Report where our financial results and corporate governance practices are discussed. This year, we adapt a new approach where we report our sustainability performance in terms of our Four Focus Areas: Site Resilience, Pedestrian-Transit Connectivity, Eco-efficiency, and Local Economic Development. This approach enables us to provide a comprehensive discussion on how we embed sustainability in the way we conduct the business. We also recognize that an empowered organization is critical to the growth and sustainability of the Company. We include a section on our efforts in enabling our people to integrate sustainable practices in their line of work. This report covers the economic, environmental, and social performance and impact of Ayala Land and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The specific boundary and business units for which certain performance indicators are most material and applicable is specified in the GRI Content Index. This covers performance data from our operations in the Philippines from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014. For comparison, data from previous years are included where available. (G4-18) Contents This report was prepared in accordance with the Core GRI G4 guidelines, and was externally assured by DNV-GL using the DNV-GL Report Verification Protocol (VeriSustain) 6 President’s Message covering economic, environmental, governance, and social indicators.

As the country’s pioneer developer of business districts and catalysts for enduring economic growth, we have long recognized that continued financial success is supported by our healthy adherence to the precautionary principle (principles of responsible corporate citizenship, prudence, and due diligence). Our dedication to improvements for society and the enhancement of built and natural environments finds expression in the sustainable communities we develop. For these reasons, sustainability has and always will be a significant part of Ayala Land’s identity, values, and operating principles. In 2014, I enjoined our units to focus on four areas that would make the most difference for the Philippine economy, society, and environment, as well as represent our brand’s continued commitment to nation-building. It is our fundamental belief that these four areas—site resilience, pedestrian and transit connectivity, eco-efficiency, and local economic development—embody the characteristics of sustainable communities. To determine these four focus areas, we reviewed our risks and opportunities, as well as our impacts on real estate development. We gathered stakeholder insights and undertook iterative discussions with our sustainability committee and company veterans in our project development process. By embedding these sustainability features into communities that we develop, we create long-term value, and provide Filipinos all over the country with distinctive spaces that minimize their impact on the environment, address vulnerabilities to climate change, promote healthy lifestyles, and promote economic growth in their host localities. 6 Let’s build sustainable communities Through our masterplanning exercises, we are able to I am truly grateful for the continuing recognition of give due respect to the balance between natural and built Ayala Land’s efforts in sustainability, and for the environment.
