Water Risk Assessment Report for Coherent Corp

This document is a Water Risk Assessment Report prepared for Coherent Corp, detailing the results of a water risk screening analysis conducted by Siemens. The analysis utilized the World Resource Institute's Aqueduct Water Risk Atlas to evaluate 121 global facility locations for potential water risks. The report identifies various risk categories, including Physical Risk Quantity, Physical Risk Quality, and Regulatory & Reputation Risk, and highlights locations classified as 'extremely high risk' in these categories. Specifically, fifteen locations were flagged for extremely high risk in Physical Risk Quantity, while five locations were noted for Physical Risk Quality. The report outlines the indicators contributing to these classifications, such as water stress, water depletion, untreated connected wastewater, and coastal eutrophication potential. It also discusses the methodology employed in the risk assessment, including the use of industry-weighted scores and the significance of the findings for future investigations into high-risk locations.
