les actes accomplis pour son compte

English translation: the acts carried out / performed on its behalf

French to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Accounting
French term or phrase: les actes accomplis pour son compte
Exceptionnellement, le premier exercice social comprend le temps écoulé depuis l'immatriculation de la Société au Registre du Commerce et des Sociétés jusqu'au 31 décembre 2005.
En outre, les actes accomplis pour son compte pendant la période de constitution et repris par la Société seront rattachés à cet exercice.

The above is from the company statutes for a general import/export business. I don't understand the precise meaning of "les actes accomplis pour son compte". Any help greatly appreciated.
