Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
None	Peloton Interactive Inc describes multiple advocacy efforts—stating "Peloton does not make political contributions. Instead, we are proactively engaging with policymakers and thought leaders around the world to amplify impact and advocate for broader access to physical and mental health for all," and noting that "In FY21, we lobbied congressional leaders in support of the equality act and reaffirmed our participation in the Business Coalition for the Equality Act" and that it "joined the bipartisan calls for both the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the Ocean Shipping Reform Act of 2022". However, the company does not disclose any internal governance procedures, oversight responsibilities, or monitoring mechanisms for these activities, providing no named individual or committee to review or align its lobbying efforts. We found no evidence of a policy or process to ensure alignment of its lobbying—including direct or through associations—with company goals, and no public report or audit of its advocacy. Moreover, when asked whether it had a commitment to conduct engagement in line with the Paris Agreement, Peloton states "No, and we do not plan to have one in the next two years," indicating no plans to implement a specific climate-lobbying governance framework.

Lobbying Transparency

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
None	The information reviewed does not indicate that the company has engaged with, or reported on, any climate-related public policy. All of the disclosed lobbying activity relates to social or health legislation such as the Equality Act, the Respect for Marriage Act and veterans’ health-care provisions, none of which address climate or energy transition issues. Consequently, no evidence is provided about climate-policy targets, the mechanisms used to influence climate regulation, or the specific outcomes the company seeks in the climate arena.	E
