In February 2024, TeamViewer received an ESG Risk Rating of 8.6 and was assessed by Morningstar Sustainalytics to be at negligible risk of experiencing material financial impacts from ESG factors – significantly lower than the industry average of 22.1, with most companies rated in the medium risk category.

Achievements in reducing our carbon footprint, coupled with significant efforts to promote an open and inclusive workplace, reflect our commitment to sustainability. This serves as a tangible demonstration to our customers, employees, shareholders, creditors and society in general, of our genuine commitment to sustainability guided by our c-a-r-e framework. Especially in the enterprise realm, where sustainable business practices have an even bigger impact on buying decisions, TeamViewer is positioning itself as a valuable partner.” 

TeamViewer has committed to the Science-based Targets Initiative (SBTi) and aims to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 90% to reach net-zero by 2040, 10 years earlier than recommended by the SBTi. To extend its influence beyond its own operations, TeamViewer plans to progressively involve suppliers in sustainability goals, mandating net zero-aligned objectives from all suppliers by 2028. Furthermore, TeamViewer has achieved its female representation targets within its supervisory and management boards, reaching 42.9% and 25%, respectively. Additionally, the company achieved its 33% target for female management participation across the entire organization in 2023 and is now setting the bar higher, aiming for 35% by 2027.

Sustainalytics’ ESG Risk Ratings measure a company’s exposure to industry-specific material ESG risks and how well a company is managing those risks. This multi-dimensional way of measuring ESG risk combines the concepts of management and exposure to arrive at an assessment of ESG risk, i.e. a total unmanaged ESG risk score or the ESG Risk Rating, that is comparable across all industries. Sustainalytics identifies five categories of ESG risk severity that could impact a company’s enterprise value: negligible (0-10), low (10-20), medium (20-30), high (30-40) and severe (40+).
