Data as of July 8, 2026
Environment story
GEO Group's FY2025 10-K does not disclose Scope 1, Scope 2, or Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions, renewable electricity sourcing, or a net-zero target year. No physical decarbonization capital projects are described in the reviewed filing. Insurance risk-factor language references generic 'environmental claims' as a covered liability category without further quantification, indicating unquantified environmental risk exposure across the company's 95-facility real estate portfolio. The score reflects disclosure gaps rather than confirmed high-emission operations.

Social story
GEO Group operates secure detention, reentry, and electronic monitoring facilities exposed to recurring litigation involving conditions of confinement, alleged mistreatment, and sexual misconduct claims. The most material documented issue is Nwauzor v.

No CEO-to-median-worker pay ratio, workforce/leadership diversity percentages, turnover data, or union-relations specifics are disclosed in the reviewed filing.
