In 2023, Semtech completed a corporate carbon footprint assessment and publicly disclosed its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions according to the GHG Protocol, covering Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy) and Scope 3 (indirect emissions across the value chain).
Semtech has also provided a category-level breakdown for 2 out of 15 Scope 3 emissions categories, offering greater transparency into its value chain emissions.
| Metric (tCO2e) | 2023 |
|---|---|
Total Scope 1 | 1,725a |
Total Scope 2 | |
Unspecified Calculation Method | 7,190a |
Total Scope 3 | 664a |
Total Scope 1 Revenue Intensity (tCO2e/$M) | 1.9856a |

In 2023, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Semtech amounted to 8,915 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
In 2023, the total Scope 1 emissions of Semtech were 1,725 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
In 2023, Semtech reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 7,190 tCO₂e without specifying the calculation method.a
In 2023, Semtech reported its Scope 2 emissions using an unspecified methodology.a
In 2023, Semtech reported 664 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 2023 disclosure of Semtech includes a breakdown across 2 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, up from 0 in , reflecting improved emissions accounting practices and greater transparency across the company's value chaina
In 2023, Semtech reported total Scope 3 emissions of 664 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
In 2023, Semtech reported emissions for 2 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 2023, the largest contributors to Semtech's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2023, Semtech reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 1,725 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 869 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 1.99 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2023, Semtech reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 1.99 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 3.76, this places the company below its industry benchmark, indicating it is more carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2023, Semtech ranked 10 out of 25 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Semtech is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2023, Semtech reported a total carbon footprint of 9,579 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions.a
The largest contributor to Semtech's total carbon footprint was Scope 2 emissions, accounting for 75.06% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 1 emissions at 18.01%.a
