Haemonetics Corporation (HAE)
Data as of July 16, 2026
Environment story
Haemonetics demonstrates moderate environmental performance with acknowledged climate risks but limited disclosed emissions data. The company recognizes climate change impacts on supply chains and regulatory compliance costs, particularly regarding ethylene oxide sterilization regulation. However, no verified Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions baselines, reduction targets, or net-zero commitments are disclosed in the 10-K. The company acknowledges increasing regulatory burdens from climate legislation but provides no quantified decarbonization initiatives or renewable energy investments. Supply chain vulnerability to climate-related disruptions (extreme weather, resource availability) is acknowledged but not comprehensively addressed. Absence of third-party sustainability reporting or validated emissions data prevents higher scoring.
