## Sustainability story

WE CARE WHAT YOU WEAR. That's why we're committed to leading the charge for ethical apparel and amplifying the message to buy less, buy better. WE KEEP GREAT COMPANY. We only partner with suppliers who share our commitment to supporting the wellbeing of the global community. WE'D BE NUDE WITHOUT OUR SHEEP. All of our wool comes from Australia and New Zealand. That means all farms are regularly checked to ensure their sheep are treated with respect, and best practices are adopted in the protection of the land. EVERYONE HAS A FOOTPRINT. We're striving to make ours as soft as our sheep. That means we'll be measuring our carbon footprint, partnering with our supply chain to reduce where we can and offsetting the rest. Now and Forever.

## Emissions (2025)

**Methodology:** Ibex's emissions inventory uses a mix of spending and activity-based data. Ibex attests to the accuracy of their data inputs and the Change Climate team reviews the submission for compliance with the Standard.

- Scope 1: 0 tCO2e
- Scope 2 (location-based): 0 tCO2e
- Scope 2 (market-based): 0 tCO2e
- Scope 3 (location-based): 855 tCO2e
- Scope 3 (market-based): 855 tCO2e
- **Total (location-based): 855 tCO2e**
- **Total (market-based): 855 tCO2e**

**Emissions intensity:** Per unit of product — unit of product

### Emissions history (tCO2e, intensity as disclosed)
| Year | Scope 1 | Scope 2 | Scope 3 | Intensity |
|-|-|-|-|-|
| 2024 | 0 | 0 | 855 | 10.36 |
