Environmental, Social,
and Governance (ESG)
Radiopharm Theranostics (“RAD”, “Radiopharm” or the “Company”) is committed to
the principles of ESG as the most effective means of creating long-term enterprise
value and addressing the societal priorities enshrined in the United Nations’
Sustainable Development Goals. In July 2021, we commenced reporting on selected
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) disclosures of the Stakeholder
Capitalism Metrics (SCM) of the World Economic Forum (WEF).
We continue to progress our disclosures in the form of a set of universal, comparable ESG metrics focused on
people, planet, prosperity and principles of governance that organisations can report on regardless of industry or
region.
We use this universal ESG framework to align our mainstream reporting on performance against ESG indicators.
We continue to look for opportunities for further transparency on the topics which are material to our business.

Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director

Governance Body Composition
Radiopharm is governed by its Board of Directors and Committees of the Board. A description of director expertise,
tenure, committee roles, meeting attendance, other significant positions and commitments and remuneration are
outlined in the Annual Financial Report.
The Board has referred to the guidance provided by the ASX Corporate Governance Council and acknowledges the
recommendation that a majority of the Board of a listed entity should be independent and will work towards this
outcome as the Company continues to grow.
The skills and perspectives of our board members are important for ongoing decisions and governance, with respect
to the everyday running of the company as well as important economic, environmental, and social topics.
The Board is cognisant of maintaining a balance of diversity, skills, experience, and independence amongst its
members. The process of formally integrating ESG competencies into the Board Skills Matrix is underway.

Planet
GHG Emissions
Radiopharm does not consider greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to be a material stakeholder capitalism metric at
this time, due to its small workforce and limited office-space footprint. RAD currently considers airline travel to be
its highest GHG contribution and has therefore set a target for FY25 and beyond to always purchase carbon offsets
for flights.
TCFD Implementation
RAD does not consider Task Force on Climate Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) implementation to be a material
stakeholder capitalism metric at this time, due to its small workforce, limited office-space footprint and limited
exposure to risk and opportunities arising from climate change.
Land Use and Key Biodiversity Areas
Radiopharm does not consider land use and ecological sensitivity to be a material stakeholder capitalism metric at
this time, as it operated from small offices in urban areas.
Water Consumption
Radiopharm does not consider water consumption to be a material stakeholder capitalism metric at this time, due
to its small workforce and limited urban office-space footprint.
