Supply chain environmental impact

Throughout HP’s supply chain, we implement industry-leading practices and catalyze changes that reduce our environmental impacts globally while benefiting our business and customers. From sourcing the raw materials used to make our products to manufac- turing and shipping our printers and PCs, we are committed to building an efficient and sustainable supplier network. We work with hundreds of production suppliers and tens of thousands of nonproduction 1 suppliers, whose operations contribute significantly to HP’s environmental footprint. As a core part of our Supply Chain Responsibility Program, we collaborate with suppliers to reduce these impacts. Our efforts are enhancing suppliers’ abilities to measure environ- mental impacts, and the coverage of suppliers reporting environmental data has increased substantially during the last several years. We’re also helping suppliers improve perfor- mance, demonstrated by long-term reductions in supplier GHG emissions intensity. Our priorities

Reduce environmental footprint at production supplier sites • Support factory managers to adopt energy efficiency programs • Host summits for production suppliers to share best practices • Encourage responsible water withdrawal and discharge • Collect and report waste generation data to promote awareness and effort • Ensure compliance with our standards  20% decrease in supply chain GHG emissions intensity compared to 2010 levels, achieving 2020 goal** Highlights of 2015*

Decrease GHG emissions from product transportation providers • Enhance and innovate our logistics net- works continually for maximum efficiency • Prioritize lower-impact transport modes • Improve shipping densities through optimization programs and innovative packaging • Motivate companies to reduce emissions by developing GHG calculation methodol- ogies with logistics industry associations

Reduce environmental impacts from nonproduction suppliers • Collaborate to reduce environmental impacts • Support related reporting efforts •

 6% decrease in GHG emissions from prior year
