Elmos Semiconductor SE has for the first time received a B score in the Climate Change category from CDP, the world's largest database for environmental information, moving from the Awareness Level to the Management Level. The company also reports in the Water Security category, where it achieved a B score and reached the Management Level. CDP awards the Management Level to companies that take coordinated action on environmental issues.
Dr. Arne Schneider, CEO of Elmos Semiconductor SE, stated that the company was able to make improvements in numerous ESG and sustainability ratings last year and expressed pleasure about this latest recognition of their sustainability efforts. CDP is a global non-profit organization that has established a worldwide system for the disclosure of environmental information primarily for companies and cities. By disclosing their sustainability activities to CDP, companies can measure and understand their environmental risks, opportunities, and impacts.
Elmos has been reporting to CDP since 2022 and has continuously improved its score since then. Further information on sustainability at Elmos can be found on their sustainability website at https://www.elmos.com/english/about-elmos/company/sustainability.

For business and technology leaders, this development signals that semiconductor companies serving critical industries like automotive are increasingly prioritizing environmental management as part of their core operations. As a fabless company and specialist for analog mixed-signal ICs that makes mobility safer, more comfortable and more efficient, Elmos's sustainability progress demonstrates how technology providers are responding to investor and customer demands for transparent environmental performance data.
The advancement to Management Level in both Climate Change and Water Security categories indicates Elmos has moved beyond basic awareness to implementing coordinated environmental strategies. This matters because semiconductor manufacturing involves significant resource consumption and environmental considerations, and companies achieving higher CDP ratings may gain competitive advantages in securing business from environmentally-conscious automotive manufacturers and other industrial customers.
As Elmos powers global megatrends such as autonomous driving, electromobility and software-defined vehicles, their improved sustainability performance suggests that the technologies enabling these transitions are being developed with greater environmental consideration. This alignment between technological innovation and environmental responsibility could influence how investors evaluate semiconductor companies and how automotive manufacturers select their technology partners in an increasingly sustainability-focused marketplace.
