The 2024 disclosure of Computershare includes a breakdown across 9 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, matching the level of disclosure in 2023, demonstrating consistent Scope 3 emissions reporting coverage year over year.a
In 2024, Computershare reported total Scope 3 emissions of 70,041.59 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Approximately 97.97% of these emissions originated from upstream activities such as purchased goods and capital goods, while 2.03% came from downstream activities like product use, distribution, and end-of-life treatment.a
Since 2020, Computershare's Scope 3 emissions have decreased by 23.53%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 3 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2023), Computershare's Scope 3 emissions remained relatively stable, indicating that Computershare's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its value chain footprint.a
In 2024, Computershare reported emissions for 9 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.a
This partial disclosure allows for some insight into the company's indirect impacts.
In 2024, the largest contributors to Computershare's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2024, Computershare reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 3,344.2 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 4,544 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 0.74 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2024, Computershare reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 0.74 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 0.27, this places the company above its industry benchmark, indicating it is less carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2024, Computershare ranked 20 out of 22 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
This places Computershare among the least efficient performers, with one of the highest emissions intensities in its sector.a
In 2024, Computershare reported a total carbon footprint of 86,594.44 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 23.74% increase compared to 2023, suggesting a rise in emissions across its operations or value chain.ab
The largest contributor to Computershare's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 80.88% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 2 emissions at 15.25%.a
