Cirrus Logic's reported carbon emissions

In 2025, Cirrus Logic, headquartered in the US, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 232,200,000 kg CO2e across all scopes. This includes 325,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which encompass direct emissions from owned or controlled sources, and 1,501,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions, related to purchased electricity and cooling. The majority of their emissions, about 232,200,000 kg CO2e, stem from Scope 3, which includes indirect emissions from the value chain, such as purchased goods and services. In 2024, the company recorded a total of approximately 224,253,000 kg CO2e in emissions, with Scope 1 emissions at 450,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 1,601,000 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a significant reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which accounted for the bulk of their carbon footprint. Cirrus Logic has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments. Their climate strategy appears to be in the early stages, focusing on transparency in emissions reporting without established reduction goals. Overall, Cirrus Logic's emissions data reflects a substantial environmental impact, particularly from indirect sources, highlighting the need for a comprehensive climate action plan to address their carbon footprint effectively.
