For the reporting year 2025, LY Corporation's total calculated emissions were approximately 3.07 billion kg CO2e. This figure is comprised of approximately 3.20 million kg CO2e for Scope 1 emissions, and a market-based Scope 2 total of approximately 10.71 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions were substantial, totalling approximately 3.06 billion kg CO2e, with purchased goods and services accounting for the largest portion at around 2.03 billion kg CO2e, followed by downstream transportation and distribution at approximately 170 million kg CO2e, and the use of sold products at approximately 258 million kg CO2e.

In the preceding year, 2024, total calculated emissions stood at approximately 4.01 billion kg CO2e. Scope 1 emissions were approximately 3.40 million kg CO2e, and Scope 2 (market-based) were approximately 25.01 million kg CO2e. Scope 3 emissions for 2024 were approximately 3.98 billion kg CO2e, driven significantly by purchased goods and services (approximately 2.08 billion kg CO2e) and downstream transportation and distribution (approximately 764 million kg CO2e).

LY Corporation's climate commitments show that Yahoo Japan Corporation, a related entity, previously had SBTi targets. However, their near-term target status was marked as "Removed" as of April 2021, and their long-term targets and net-zero commitments are not explicitly detailed as current. The provided information indicates that LY Corporation inherits its emissions data from itself, with no indication of cascading from a broader corporate family.
