About this GRI supplement
Metso publishes its sustainability data annually. The quantitative data for the 2023 calendar year in this supplement has been prepared in accordance with the GRI Standards.
Our reporting meets the Finnish Accounting Act's requirements on the disclosure of non-financial information. The required non-financial information is disclosed in the Board of Directors' report in Metso's Financial statements 2023. In our Statement of non-financial information, we also disclose to what extent our activities are eligible for and aligned with the EU Taxonomy as required by the EU Taxonomy Regulation and the Finnish Accounting Act. This GRI supplement and the sustainability information disclosed in the Business overview section of the Annual report have been prepared to meet the expectations of a wider audience and the requirements of several sustainability indices.
The boundary of our reporting is Metso Corporation, unless otherwise stated. This scope of reporting excludes associated companies and joint ventures. Supplier-related information includes spend on local suppliers, supplier sustainability audits, the lost-time incident frequency rate (LTIFR) of contractors and other supervised workers, and CO2 emissions of purchased goods and services as well as transportation. Sustainability data is presented at the Group level, unless otherwise stated.
Metso's Annual report 2023 consists of the Business overview, Financial review, Corporate governance statement, Remuneration report, and the GRI supplement. Sustainability data is presented in various sections of the Annual report. Key figures are summarized in the 'Key Performance Indicators' section of this GRI supplement, with references to additional information set out in the 'GRI Content Index' section.
The GRI reporting principles for defining report content and quality and the GRI 1: Foundation Standard have been taken into consideration in producing sustainability-related content. In addition, our reporting includes the industry-specific indicators (SASB Index) identified in the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board's (SASB) Industrial Machinery & Goods Standard.
This report describes Metso's performance with reference to the ten principles of the UN Global Compact initiative, specifically regarding human rights, labor rights, environment, and anti-corruption principles. The GRI Content Index also shows the indicators used by Metso to evaluate progress in these areas.
Metso's sustainability agenda and related action plans, targets and long-term goals are aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Five SDGs have been identified as the most relevant areas where we want to demonstrate our impact during the strategy period 2024-2026. This report also describes Metso's progress against these goals.
In line with the goals set by the UN General Assembly, our products help our customers make their operations more sustainable, with increased resource efficiency and greater adoption of clean and environmentally efficient technologies (SDG 9). This includes actions to combat climate change (SDG 13) through the use of our technologies. We also increase the efficiency of our water use by reducing the amount of freshwater needed in our processes and by increasing recycling and safely re-using water, thereby decreasing the amount of wastewater produced (SDG 6).
We offer work opportunities for all genders as well as for young people and people with disabilities. Furthermore, we aim to achieve equal pay for work of equal value, as well as to protect labor rights and promote a safe and secure working environment for all employees (SDG 8).
The majority of Metso's manufacturing is outsourced, and responsible procurement is important to us. By requiring sustainable practices across our supply chain, we also promote the wider adoption of responsible management practices and the reduction of waste generation (SDG 12).
EY has provided limited assurance on the sustainability information disclosed in Metso's Annual report 2023, as an independent third party. The scope of the assured information is indicated in the independent assurance report on page 27 of this report.

Reporting principles
Economic data
The economic data in this report is based on data collected through our enterprise resource planning and management reporting systems. Figures used in Metso's 2023 consolidated Financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. Metso has classified two of its businesses as discontinued operations starting from September 30, 2023. Consequently, the figures for 2023 related to the consolidated statement of income are presented separately from the continuing operations and comparative figures for 2022 have been restated accordingly. More information is disclosed under Note 10. Discontinued operations. Discontinued operations are not included in the Planet Positive sales 2023 and comparative figures for 2022 have been restated accordingly. Other figures in this report include divested operations.
Environmental data
Environmental data has been collected through our HSE24 reporting system. The principle applied in defining the scope for which environmental data is collected is financial control, and leased assets are included in the reported figures.
This data is available for Metso's largest business units and has been collected from all our manufacturing units, research centers, service centers, assembly shops and warehouses with more than 50 employees. It includes energy use, water use, waste, and VOC emissions. In addition, energy data is collected from offices with more than 100 employees.
Our smallest offices, typically with fewer than 100 employees, and the smallest service centers, assembly shops and warehouses with fewer than 50 employees, are not included in the environmental reporting. This is because they are often located in large office facilities together with other companies. They typically pay a monthly lump sum to the office space providers, and therefore it is not possible to determine their specific electricity, heat or water consumption. We have estimated that the impact of these locations is not material for Metso's total figures.
Waste generated in Metso's own activities comes mainly from the production process at operating sites such as foundries, manufacturing sites, and assembly and service workshops. The largest volume of waste is generated at foundries (sand and slag) and manufacturing sites (rubber and metallic scraps).
Metso has implemented initiatives that aim to reduce waste generation at its operational sites by improving production processes as well as by developing new alternatives for recycling.
Waste is mainly recycled or recovered by external companies. These companies are selected and managed by each location in accordance with Metso's and local legal requirements. Waste figures are reported in the HSE24 system twice a year for each operational location.
Environmental data from Metso's project sites are excluded from the data collection process. All local subsidiaries from which the data was collected are fully owned by Metso; for this reason, no allocations to subsidiaries regarding environmental indicators have been made.
KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS | GRI CONTENT | INDEPENDENT ASSURANCE REPORT |
The methodology of calculating the scope 3 emissions of purchased goods and services is based on the weight of purchased goods using Ecoinvent's material-specific emission factor or, when weight information is not available, based on Metso's spending by supplier type and country using data supplied by the environmentally extended input-output matrices from Exiobase.
Our positive climate impact, our handprint, is based on an estimate of the emissions avoided by using twenty of Metso's technologies. We have calculated the CO2 emissions from the use of Metso technologies against an industry baseline or an alternative technology.
Social data
Employee data was collected through a global HR master data system based on SAP SuccessFactors.
Health and safety
Metso's global HSE24 reporting system is used to collect health and safety data and to monitor progress towards common health and safety targets across all Metso operations.
We have implemented a health and safety management system fulfilling local statutory requirements. The system also supports standards such as ISO 45001. The occupational health and safety management system and reported indicators cover employees as well as workers who are not employees but whose work or workplace is controlled by the organization.
All work-related injuries are reported, without exception, in our HSE24 reporting system. Injuries are investigated and the results are reported in the system. Injuries are reviewed with management, and the necessary corrective actions are identified during the investigation. All lost-time injuries are reviewed at least annually to identify high-consequencework-related injuries. All injuries that are reported with a consequence defined as a "lost-time injury," "restricted work," or "medical treatment" are included in recordable injuries. The type of injury is reported based on the Injury classification on the injury report for each incident. Fatalities are categorized separately.
The number of hours worked per month is estimated as headcount at the end of the month multiplied by 160 hours. Hours worked are not made public but are used only to calculate frequency rates. Where either the number or rate can be reported, only the rate is reported so that reporting is concise. Hours for non-employees are not reported because they are business-sensitive information and would add little value to information about injury frequency rates.
Our Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (HIRA) process is used to identify work-related hazards and to assess related risks. The quality of the HIRA process is ensured by involving local HSE staff in the process as defined in our HSE roles and responsibilities framework. Actions resulting from the HIRA process continually improve our occupational health and safety management system. All workers are expected to report work-related hazards in our HSE24 reporting system. There is also a channel for anonymous reports of any illegal or unethical conduct.

GRI 304: BIODIVERSITY
Significant impacts of activities, products, and services on biodiversity (304-2)
Our activities have the potential to affect biodiversity, both at our manufacturing sites and indirectly through the way our equipment is used by customers.
Our equipment manufacturing sites, assembly and service workshops are mostly in industrial parks (zoned for industrial use) with limited biodiversity sensitivity, and in which the environmental permits take into account potential biodiversity and endangered species impacts.
When Metso opens new sites, we require that they are built with tight controls over their environmental impacts, and we check whether construction requires an environmental permit. In case the construction could have an impact on biodiversity, an environmental impact assessment is carried out (impacts on flora, fauna, endangered species, water management, pollution or habitat conversion).
The operations of our customers in the aggregates and mining industries typically have significant land footprints, often in environmentally sensitive areas, and land disturbance and pollution can impact habitats and species. If not properly manufactured, used and maintained, Metso's products have the potential to harm the biodiversity surrounding our customers' plants and sites.
To mitigate this risk, in cooperation with customers, we design products and processes to minimize the release of effluents and atmospheric emissions. Metso's technological focus in this regard is mainly on closed water loops, raw material efficiency, tailings management and emissions management systems. These have a positive impact on conserving natural habitats, reducing land-use impacts, preventing pollution and reducing groundwater consumption. It is also beneficial to customers because contributes to minimizing the amount of raw materials needed as inputs in their operations.

Metso has conducted an analysis of all Scope 3 emission categories. Based on that analysis, six emission categories were identified: purchased goods and services, fuel- and energy-related emissions, upstream transportation, business travel, downstream transportation, and use of sold products.
Metso has assessed its Scope 3 emissions based on the GHG Protocol's Corporate Value Chain Accounting and Reporting Standard. GHG emissions reporting covers only CO2. Metso does not have any biogenic CO2 emissions in its operations.
Purchased goods and services Scope 3 emissions cover direct and indirect spend and are calculated using a weight-based approach, or a spend-based approach when weight information is not applicable. The weight-based analysis is based on the weight and material of purchased goods using emissions factors from the Ecoinvent 3.7 database. The spend-based analysis is based on the monetary
value of purchased goods and services by supplier type and country, and is carried out using the environmentally extended input-output matrices from Exiobase. In 2023, our calculation methodology was revised and the 2021-2022 numbers were updated.
Fuel- and energy-related Scope 3 emissions include emissions that are not included in Scope 1 or Scope 2 (production of fuels and energy purchased: diesel, LPG, natural gas, electricity, steam, district heating). Coverage is 100% and the emission factor source is: www.gov.uk/government/publications/ greenhouse-gas-reporting-conversion-factors-2016
Upstream transportation emissions are based on CO2 data provided by logistics service providers (LSPs), the distance provided by the LSPs and gross weight. Coverage of data received from service providers is 61% and extrapolation using spend is made for the remaining share. Upstream transportation
CO2 emissions take into account transportation between Tier-1 suppliers and own operations, and transportation between Metso units. Emissions for 2022 are restated due to data received in 2023.
Metso currently monitors and reports Scope 3 emissions stemming from business travel which accounts for 99% of workforce.
Downstream transportation emissions are based on CO2 data provided by logistics service providers (LSPs), the distance provided by the LSPs and gross weight. Coverage of data received from service providers is 61% and extrapolation using spend is made for the remaining share. Downstream transportation CO2 emissions take into account transportation of products from Metso units to customers and transportation from suppliers to customers. See above for upstream emissions and revision of methodology.
Use of sold products: Equipment emissions are based on annual hours of operation and baseline operating conditions. Adjustments are made for energy sources (by country for electricity) and materials (steel, rubber, ceramic). Emissions from the use of sold products for 2023, 2022 and 2021 include
the following products: crushing equipment (Pebble Crushing, Ore Sorters, Conveyor solutions and Lokotrack®), grinding equipment (HRCe, Vertimill®, SMD, HIGmill®, AG mills, Pebble mills), separation equipment (FloatForce™ mechanism, SkimAir®, Dry LIMS) and Ceramic filters. Emissions from the use of sold products for 2020 did not include Lokotrak, and for 2019 they included the following products: HRC, VTM, SMD and HIGmill. The country-specific and other emission factors used were retrieved from Ecoinvent 3.8 database in 2023 and 2022 (national electricity values were updated to Ecoinvent 3.9 ), Ecoinvent 3.7 database in 2021 and 2020, and GaBi database in 2019.

In calculations for market-based emissions, we used supplier-specific emission factors and 'Residual mix CO2e emission' factors (AIB, European Residual Mixes Results of the calculation of Residual Mixes for the calendar year 2019) when needed.
Savings from renewable energy certificates and guarantees of origin are included.
