Greenhouse Gas Inventory (GHG Scope 1 and Scope 2)
In accordance with the ISO 14064-1:2018 standard for greenhouse gas emissions inventory, LITEON’s direct GHG emissions (Scope 1) and indirect GHG emissions (Scope 2) amounted to 109,032.7946 tons of CO2e (market-based) in 2024. This represents a decrease of 39,554.7903 tons of CO2e compared to 2023, marking a reduction of 26.62%. Furthermore, emissions were 185,425.2054 tons of CO2e lower than the baseline year of 2014, resulting in a decrease of 62.97%. The carbon intensity was 0.87 tons of CO2e per million NTD in revenue, which is 19.77% lower than in 2023 and 57.39% lower than the baseline year of 2014. These results meet the original SBT reduction pathway target of 32.24% for 2024, as well as the 38.51% reduction target set under the 555 carbon reduction goal. Under the SBT 1.5°C short-term pathway, the absolute emissions reduction target for 2024 was 5.88%, which has already been achieved.

Note: disclosure of greenhouse gas emissions from certain subsidiaries is made in compliance with legal requirements including Brazil, the U.S. and office sites. Verification has not been performed for offices and manufacturing sites with annual revenue contributions below 1%
Greenhouse Gas Value Chain Inventory (GHG Scope 3)
To enhance the value of the LITEON value chain and address key factors for mitigating climate change, LITEON not only conducts emissions inventories for its own operations but also adheres to the ISO 14064:2018 and GHG Protocol standards. This approach allows LITEON to identify emission hotspots across the value chain and extend its carbon management efforts to its business partners through emission verification and disclosure.
In 2023, LITEON utilized materiality identification standards alongside assessment factors—including emissions, improvement potential, and quantification methods—to analyze emissions related to upstream raw materials, business travel, employee commuting, water treatment, and upstream fuel and energy activities for its Scope 3 inventory. This assessment revealed a total of 12 categories within Scope 3, specifically Categories 4 to 6. LITEON is committed to collaborating with its value chain partners to develop low-carbon products by implementing strategies such as green product design to combat climate change and global warming.
