In 2024, Viatris 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).
However, Viatris has not published a category-level breakdown of its Scope 3 emissions, limiting visibility into specific value chain sources.

In 2024, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Viatris amounted to 355,445 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 2023, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Viatris increased by 0.13%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing its emissions from its core operations.a
In 2024, the total Scope 1 emissions of Viatris were 95,438 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2019, Viatris's Scope 1 emissions have decreased by 69.99%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 1 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2023), Viatris's Scope 1 emissions remained relatively stable, indicating that Viatris's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its operational footprint.a
In 2024, Viatris reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 260,007 tCO₂e using the market-based method.a
Since 2019, Viatris's Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (Market-Based) have decreased by 25.5%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 2 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2023), Viatris's Scope 2 emissions (Market-Based) have remained relatively stable, indicating that Viatris's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its energy consumption footprint.a
In 2024, Viatris reported its Scope 2 emissions using the market-based method.a
In 2024, Viatris reported 2,154,268 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 2024 disclosure of Viatris includes a breakdown across 0 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, Viatris reported total Scope 3 emissions of 2,154,268 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Compared to the previous year (2023), Viatris's Scope 3 emissions remained relatively stable, indicating that Viatris's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its value chain footprint.a
In 2024, Viatris reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 95,438 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 14,739 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 6.48 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2024, Viatris reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 6.48 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 12.05, this places the company below its industry benchmark, indicating it is more carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2024, Viatris ranked 9 out of 21 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
Viatris is therefore positioned in the mid-range of its industry, neither a clear leader nor a laggard in carbon efficiency.a
In 2024, Viatris reported a total carbon footprint of 2,509,713 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 0.03% increase compared to 2023, suggesting a rise in emissions across its operations or value chain.a
The largest contributor to Viatris's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 85.84% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 2 emissions at 10.36%.a
