In 2025, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Criteo amounted to 16,905 metric tons of CO2 equivalent. This figure includes both direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from purchased energy (Scope 2).a
Compared to 2024, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Criteo decreased by 9.66%, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its operations.a
In 2025, the total Scope 1 emissions of Criteo were 1,811 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Compared to the previous year (2024), Criteo's Scope 1 emissions increased by 76.86%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions from its directly owned or controlled operations.a
In 2025, Criteo reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 0 tCO₂e using the market-based method and 15,094 tCO₂e using the location-based method.a
Compared to the previous year (2024), Criteo's Scope 2 emissions (Location-Based) fell by 14.67% in 2025, showing that the company has made progress in taking action to reduce the climate impact of its energy consumption.a
In 2025, Criteo reported its Scope 2 emissions using the market-based method and using the location-based method.a
In 2025, Criteo reported 53,648 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.a
The 2025 disclosure of Criteo includes a breakdown across 3 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, matching the level of disclosure in 2024, demonstrating consistent Scope 3 emissions reporting coverage year over year.a
In 2025, Criteo reported total Scope 3 emissions of 53,648 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Approximately 100% of these emissions originated from upstream activities such as purchased goods and capital goods, while 0% came from downstream activities like product use, distribution, and end-of-life treatment.a
Since 2019, Criteo's Scope 3 emissions have increased by 593.04%, reflecting a rising long-term trend in Scope 3 emissions over time.ac
Compared to the previous year (2024), Criteo's Scope 3 emissions remained relatively stable, indicating that Criteo's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its value chain footprint.a
In 2025, Criteo reported emissions for 3 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.a
The limited disclosure restricts visibility into specific emission sources across the company's value chain.
In 2025, the largest contributors to Criteo's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2025, Criteo reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 1,811 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 1,945 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 0.93 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2025, Criteo reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 0.93 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 0.42, this places the company above its industry benchmark, indicating it is less carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2025, Criteo ranked 15 out of 24 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Criteo is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2025, Criteo reported a total carbon footprint of 70,553 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 9.86% decrease compared to 2024, indicating progress in reducing its overall greenhouse gas output.a
The largest contributor to Criteo's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 76.04% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 2 emissions at 21.39%.a
