Our Approach to Impact Reporting
We apply similar focus, discipline, and accountability to our environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) reporting metrics as we do our financial metrics, and we believe that together they make us stronger and more resilient. We expect to continue to use our required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), as well as our Investor Relations website and Etsy News blog, as our primary communications channels for information relating to our Impact strategy and progress. We have various approaches for determining what information we disclose in our ESG reporting, including feedback we receive from the financial community and other stakeholders. In addition, we continue to report our ESG metrics using the relevant Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (“SASB”) sector standards for our industry and Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (“TCFD”) frameworks.
Etsy uses ‘fully integrated’ reporting in our Annual Report on Form 10K to report on our ESG metrics. We do not publish a separate Corporate Social Responsibility Report.
Our “House of Brands” and ESG Reporting Boundary
We also strive to stay abreast of new disclosure regulations that we may be required to comply with so we can develop an action plan and prepare to comply. We expect to continue to evolve our Impact strategy and ESG reporting in the future as our Impact work at Etsy and the broader industry matures. Our discussion of Impact strategy, highlights, and ESG data includes the operations of our Etsy, Reverb, and Depop marketplaces except where noted.
