Fostering Sustainable Operations - The Company aims to serve the global market with the highest standards of ethics and integrity. A key part of IGT’s commitment is the continuous integration of sustainability into its decision-making processes to enhance ESG performance. 
In 2021, IGT pledged to set science-based targets to reduce GHG emissions according to scientific evidence by signing the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) commitment letter. In 2022, IGT completed its first Scope 3 emissions inventory and submitted near-term and long-term science-based targets for SBTi validation. 
Specifically, IGT commitments include: 
•reducing combined Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 50% by 2030 compared to 2019 (near-term target);
•reducing Scope 3 emissions by 30% by 2030 compared to 2019 (near-term target);
•reducing both Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions by 90% by 2050 compared to 2019 (long-term targets); 
•reaching Net-Zero emissions by 2050, offsetting the residual 10% of emissions. 
These ambitious targets have been validated by the SBTi in August 2023. IGT is actively pursuing its Decarbonization Pathway by implementing several workstreams across its value chain and operations in order to meet the targets and contribute to the fight against climate change by reducing its greenhouse gas emissions. 
IGT continued the distribution of the Environmental, Social and Governance Supplier Qualification Questionnaire in 2024, an annual exercise designed to measure the ESG performance of Suppliers and track their progress towards compliance of the Supplier Code of Conduct. Topics covered include Business Ethics, Social & Inclusive Supply Chain, Environmental Management, Human Rights, Health and Safety and Conflict Minerals aligned to the aforementioned Supplier Code of Conduct.
IGT’s sustainability efforts are also routinely evaluated by ESG rating agencies. In 2024, IGT received a Management level (B) score from the CDP – formerly known as the Carbon Disclosure Project – recognizing the Company for taking coordinated actions on climate issues. In the same year, the Company received a gold medal in sustainability rating from EcoVadis, positioning IGT among the top 5% of global companies for sustainable practices. EcoVadis assesses companies using 21 sustainability criteria within the categories of environment, labor
