Qlik Technologies Inc.

Carbon per million dollars of revenue. The legacy industry-standard reference (CDP, MSCI). Useful for cross-sector context, but distorted by margin — high-margin firms appear artificially efficient. Read alongside the operational and asset intensities for the full picture.

OpEx (operating expenditure) is the running cost of the business — staff, services, energy, materials. This shows how carbon-intensive operations are per million dollars of spend. Removes the margin distortion that revenue-based ratios introduce.

EVIC (Enterprise Value Including Cash) is the firm's total capital footprint — equity + debt + cash + minority interest. The EU's standard intensity measure (SFDR PAI 3) — answers: how much carbon does each million of capital deployed in this business produce?

PP&E (Property, Plant & Equipment) plus leased real-estate assets is the firm's physical infrastructure on the balance sheet. This shows the carbon intensity of that physical footprint — uses Scope 1+2+3 for consistency with the other headline intensities. Surfaces stranded-asset risk for asset-heavy firms.

Qlik partners with Amazon Web Services for cloud-based hosting to reduce electricity consumption, citing AWS's energy-efficient infrastructure and AWS's pledge to use 100% renewable energy. Qlik does not directly procure PPAs or RECs; its renewables exposure is largely indirect via cloud provider commitments. No on-site solar, RE100 membership, or direct renewable energy procurement is disclosed.

In 2024 Qlik continued its award-winning partnership with Climate Vault supporting ongoing efforts to achieve Net Zero by 2030. Climate Vault uses regulated carbon markets to retire allowances and fund durable carbon dioxide removal technologies, though the report does not specify volumes (DAC, BECCS, biochar) or tonnage retired in 2024.

• Employee commuting

  Employee commuting (Scope 3 Category 7) accounts for ~10% of total Scope 3 emissions (~2,945 tCO2e). Qlik is developing strategies to reduce this category as part of its broader Scope 3 reduction roadmap under its SBTi commitment.

• Cloud infrastructure consolidation

  In March 2024 Qlik began consolidating multiple data centers: US sites in California, Massachusetts, and North Carolina being merged into a single Virginia data center, with EMEA sites in France, Israel, and Sweden to follow. This is designed to reduce energy consumption and streamline data management, complementing the migration of hosted applications to AWS.

• Business travel reduction

  Business travel (Scope 3 Category 6) represents ~17% of Qlik's total Scope 3 emissions (~5,006 tCO2e of 29,445 tCO2e). As part of the target-setting process under SBTi commitment, Qlik is developing strategies to reduce Scope 3 emissions including business travel.

• Office space consolidation and energy efficiency

  In 2024 Qlik continued to assess its 32 global office locations (415,699 sq ft) to minimize underutilized areas, with several sites consolidated or relocated. Electricity consumption was 5,018 MWh resulting in 1,504 tCO2e Scope 2 emissions. Office electricity is the predominant driver of energy use.

• Purchased goods and services (supply chain)

  Purchased goods and services (Scope 3 Category 1) is Qlik's largest Scope 3 category at ~68% of total Scope 3 (~20,023 tCO2e). Reduction strategies are being developed as part of the SBTi target-setting process. Supplier Code of Conduct introduced in 2023 governs supply chain expectations.
