Biodiversity Risk Assessment Report for Coherent Corp

This document is a Biodiversity Risk Assessment Report prepared for Coherent Corp, detailing the results of a biodiversity risk screening analysis conducted by Siemens. The analysis utilized the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Biodiversity Risk Filter to evaluate 130 global locations of Coherent Corp. The report outlines the identified biodiversity risks, categorizing them into various factors such as Provisioning Services, Environmental Factors, and Socioeconomic Factors. It highlights that two locations were classified as 'high risk' due to their proximity to protected areas, while the majority of sites fell within 'medium' to 'high risk' categories primarily due to natural disaster risks. The report also discusses the methodology of the WWF Biodiversity Risk Filter and the importance of assessing these risks in corporate sustainability strategies. Additionally, it confirms that operations at the high-risk locations have minimal impact on local biodiversity, despite their proximity to sensitive areas.
