JASPER, IN - Kimball Electronics, Inc. today announced the release of its 2024 Guiding Principles Report, which includes the company’s annual sustainability disclosures. Themed “Strategically Focused,” the Report outlines progress on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives and reflects the company’s continued focus on the issues that matter most—where it can make a meaningful and lasting difference for people and the environment, while supporting long-term business success.
About the Report
Now in its sixth edition, the Report reflects how Kimball Electronics integrates sustainability into every area of its business, guided by its Guiding Principles: Customers, People, Citizenship, and Profits. For the 2024 reporting period, the company applied the principle of double materiality in alignment with the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS)—which require the disclosure of measurable targets for all identified material ESG matters.
“At the heart of our strategy is a principle we live by: ‘Control What We Can Control.’ This mindset sharpens our ESG focus and reinforces the values embedded in our Guiding Principles,” said Richard Phillips, CEO. “I’m proud of how we continue to align our sustainability efforts with the needs of our stakeholders and the future of our business.”
