Specifically, the entity shall: (a) describe sustainability-related risks and opportunities that could reasonably be expected to affect the entity’s prospects; Our Approach to Sustainability (5-14) ; Value Created for the Environment (15-39) At present, our assessment of sustainability-related risks and opportunities does not incorporate time horizon considerations, except for climate-related factors. We will continue to explore methodologies in assessing our sustainability-related risks and opportunities under different time horizons. (b) specify the time horizons—short, medium or long term—over which the effects of each of those sustainability- related risks and opportunities could reasonably be expected to occur; and (c) explain how the entity defines ‘short term’, ‘medium term’ and ‘long term’ and how these definitions are linked to the planning horizons used by the entity for strategic decision-making. Business Model and Value Chain 32 An entity shall disclose information that enables users of general purpose financial reports to understand the current and anticipated effects of sustainability-related risks and opportunities on the entity’s business model and value chain. Specifically, the entity shall disclose: (a) a description of the current and anticipated effects of sustainability-related risks and opportunities on the entity’s business model and value chain; and Our Approach to Sustainability (5-14) (b) a description of where in the entity’s business model and value chain sustainability-related risks and opportunities are concentrate.

Paragraph Description Reference (Page number) and Remarks 35 Specifically, an entity shall disclose quantitative and qualitative information about: (a) how sustainability-related risks and opportunities have affected its financial position, financial performance and cash flows for the reporting period; We have preliminarily identified sustainability-related risks and opportunities and disclosed their potential financial impact in the Managing ESG Risks and Opportunities in Our Operations section under Our Approach to Sustainability. In addition, we have disclosed the anticipated financial effects for the climate-related risks and opportunities. Please refer to the Value Created for the Environment section for more information. We are currently examining frameworks and analytical approaches to strengthen our identification and measurement of potential financial impacts arising from sustainability-related risks and opportunities.

Resilience 41 An entity shall disclose information that enables users of general purpose financial reports to understand its capacity to adjust to the uncertainties arising from sustainability-related risks. An entity shall disclose a qualitative and, if applicable, quantitative assessment of the resilience of its strategy and business model in relation to its sustainability-related risks, including information about how the assessment was carried out and its time horizon. When providing quantitative information, an entity may disclose a single amount or a range. Our Approach to Sustainability (5-14); Value Created for the Environment (15-39) Risk Management 43 The objective of sustainability-related financial disclosures on risk management is to enable users of general purpose financial reports: (a) to understand an entity’s processes to identify, assess, prioritize and monitor sustainability-related risks and opportunities, including whether and how those processes are integrated into and inform the entity’s overall risk management process; and (b) to assess the entity’s overall risk profile and its overall risk management process. 44 To achieve this objective, an entity shall disclose information about: (a) the processes and related policies the entity uses to identify, assess, prioritize and monitor sustainability-related risks, including information about: (i) the inputs and parameters the entity uses; (ii) whether and how the entity uses scenario analysis to inform its identification of sustainability-related risks; (iii) how the entity assesses the nature, likelihood and magnitude of the effects of those risks; (iv) whether and how the entity prioritizes sustainability-related risks relative to other types of risk; (v) how the entity monitors sustainability-related risks; and (vi) whether and how the entity has changed the processes it uses compared with the previous reporting period; Our Approach to Sustainability (5-14); Value Created for the Environment (15-39) At present, scenario analysis is only used to support the analysis of climate-related risks and opportunities. Going forward, we will explore the use of scenario analysis to analyze other sustainability-related risks and opportunities. (b) the processes the entity uses to identify, assess, prioritize and monitor sustainability-related opportunities; and (c) the extent to which, and how, the processes for identifying, assessing, prioritizing and monitoring sustainability- related risks and opportunities are integrated into and inform the entity’s overall risk management process. Metrics and Targets 45 The objective of sustainability-related financial disclosures on metrics and targets is to enable users of general purpose financial reports to understand an entity’s performance in relation to its sustainability-related risks and opportunities, including progress towards any targets the entity has set, and any targets it is required to meet by law or regulation. 46 An entity shall disclose, for each sustainability-related risk and opportunity that could reasonably be expected to affect the entity’s prospects: (a) metrics required by an applicable IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standard; and Appendix VIII – SASB Content Index (105) (b) metrics the entity uses to measure and monitor: (i) that sustainability-related risk or opportunity; and (ii) its performance in relation to that sustainability-related risk or opportunity, including progress towards any targets the entity has set, and any targets it is required to meet by law or regulation.
