Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
None	Kulicke & Soffa Industries Inc. outlines its broad ESG framework, noting that “The ESG Council comprises sub-components overseen by organizational leads” who report to the Executive Leadership Team and that “The NGC maintains ultimate oversight of all ESG activities,” but it does not describe any governance processes that specifically address lobbying or policy engagement activities. Instead, the company states that “Engagement activities are undertaken indirectly through SEMI – the global semi-conductor industry association,” yet provides no details on how SEMI’s positions are reviewed, aligned, or monitored against its climate commitments. We found no evidence of a policy or process to align lobbying with climate goals, no named individual or committee responsible for lobbying oversight, and no mechanisms for reviewing or auditing direct or indirect lobbying activities.
