To assess climate risks and opportunities, RD Saúde uses metrics structured around two dimensions: impact and probability. The impact is assessed based on four criteria—financial (percentage impact on adjusted EBITDA or net income), image and reputation (negative repercussions and reputational impact), operational (unavailability of distribution centers and systems, and disruption to e-commerce), and regulatory (penalties, notifications, and civil lawsuits, among others). The probability of occurrence is estimated based on historical data and projections from the climate scenarios used. The combination of these two factors determines the severity classification of each risk into four levels: low, moderate, high, and very high.
The data are available on pages 58 and 68 of the 2025 Annual and Sustainability Report.
RD Saúde manages the risks and opportunities associated with climate change through the goals that make up its 2030 sustainability strategy:
Progress on these commitments is reported quarterly to the Sustainability Committee and made publicly available at painelesg.rdsaude.com.br. Detailed performance data is also available on page 58 of this report. In addition to its long-term commitments, RD Saúde sets annual targets that guide consistent progress toward its 2030 goals. Performance in relation to these targets is monitored periodically and is linked to the variable compensation of all leadership.
