Sustainable Development – Implementation of Climate-Related Information
I. Governance
The Company's management evaluates climate-related risks and greenhouse gas (GHG) issues on an annual basis, establishes relevant targets, and assists in allocating the necessary resources to address these matters.
The Company also conducts regular annual reviews of the progress toward its climate-related targets and proposes adjustments where necessary. The results of these processes are ultimately submitted to and reported to the Chairperson of the Board of Directors, with the aim of integrating climate-related response measures more deeply into the Group's overall risk management framework.
II. Strategy
(1) Physical Risks
Risk Level | Immediate | Long-Term | |
|---|---|---|---|
Risk Description | Company-wide power outages caused by natural disasters, resulting in production stoppages | Water shortages causing difficulties for employees in commuting to or working at the Company | Extreme weather events causing increases in raw material prices |
Financial Impact | Production stoppages may affect delivery schedules and potentially result in contractual breaches. | Water shortages may delay production and consequently affect delivery schedules | Increased operating costs |
Impact Level | Medium | Low | Medium |
Opportunity | Develop business continuity mechanisms | Reassess workplace conditions and facilities required for employees | Seek stable sources of supply or evaluate the feasibility of in-house production |
Response Measures | Install emergency generators and UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) systems, maintain adequate safety stock, and/or include natural disaster provisions in contracts. | Ensure sufficient water storage capacity to meet employees' water-use needs during water shortages. | Enter into long-term contracts with suppliers or evaluate whether in-house production would be more economically beneficial than external procurement over the long term. |
(2) Transition Risks
Risk Level | Long-Term | |
|---|---|---|
Risk Description | Increased operating costs due to carbon pricing | Government policies and regulations requiring an increase in the proportion of renewable energy usage |
Financial Impact | Increased operating costs | Increased capital expenditures |
Impact Level | Low | Medium |
Opportunity | Consider purchasing carbon credits during business operations | Plan for a stable power supply to meet operational needs |
Response Measures | The Company is currently not subject to the initial phase of carbon fee collection under the Climate Change Response Act. Nevertheless, the Company has proactively established greenhouse gas emission reduction targets in response to future regulatory requirements. | The Company plans to invest in renewable energy facilities over the long term and set aside the necessary capital resources. |
III. Risk Management
The Board of Directors approved the Risk Management Best Practice Principles in 2023. The Company's current risk management activities are overseen by the Sustainability Development Committee and the Vice President of the Finance and Administration Division, who is responsible for formulating relevant strategies. Department-level units also report climate-related issues encountered in their operations, such as power shortages.

Note 1: Direct emissions (Scope 1) refer to greenhouse gas emissions directly generated by emission sources owned or controlled by the Company. Energy indirect emissions (Scope 2) refer to indirect greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the consumption of purchased electricity. Other indirect emissions (Scope 3) refer to emissions generated by the Company's activities that are not classified as energy indirect emissions and originate from emission sources owned or controlled by other entities.
Note 2: The organizational boundary of the GHG inventory is consistent with the consolidated entities included in the consolidated financial statements and covers: (Parent Company) Bonraybio Co., Ltd.; (Subsidiary) BONRAYBIO HOLDING (SAMOA) CO., LTD.; (Subsidiary) BONRAYBIO USA CORP.; and (Sub-subsidiary) Bonraybio (Sichuan) Medical Technology Co., Ltd.

Electricity consumption data are compiled based on the electricity consumption recorded on the electricity bills of each entity.
Note 2: CO₂e emissions from electricity consumption are calculated based on the latest annual electricity carbon emission factors published by the Energy Administration, Ministry of Economic Affairs, Taiwan, and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment of the People's Republic of China.
c. Water Consumption Data for the Most Recent Two Years
Item | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | Year-over-Year Change |

Greenhouse Gas Reduction Targets, Strategies, and Implementation
To date, Bonraybio's progress toward its greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets is described as follows:
2025 marked the first year of the Company's GHG management system implementation. During the year, the Company progressively introduced and implemented key elements of the management system, including GHG inventory procedures, internal training, identification of emission sources, and data collection mechanisms.
GHG Reduction Target: The Company has established a preliminary reduction target of achieving a cumulative 3% reduction in GHG emissions from 2025 to 2029, with an annual reduction target of approximately 0.5% to 1%. As 2026 data have not yet been disclosed, the Company currently conducts year-over-year comparisons and evaluates progress based on available historical data.
Target Achievement and Review: The Company's total GHG emissions in 2025 were 120.588 metric tons CO₂e per year, representing an increase of 3.127 metric tons CO₂e per year from 117.461 metric tons CO₂e per year in 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to the Company's business expansion and the acquisition of additional office and machinery equipment, which increased electricity consumption and consequently affected Scope 2 emissions. Nevertheless, the Company effectively controlled and reduced its Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions.
