Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Moderate	Helen of Troy implements a limited mechanism to align its indirect lobbying with its climate strategy, explaining "We monitor the positions taken by trade associations in which we are active members. Currently, based on our own assessment, these trade associations are consistent with our major policy positions." The company underscores its broader ESG governance, stating that "Our Board of Directors, through the Corporate Governance Committee, oversees ESG-related matters, including those related to climate change," and that its "Vice President, Global ESG ... reports regularly to the Board on these matters with ESG as a standing agenda item at scheduled quarterly Board meetings." However, the company does not disclose any dedicated process or identify a specific individual responsible for overseeing its lobbying alignment, nor does it have direct lobbying activities, as "There is no reportable lobbying activity for fiscal 2024" and "we do not make any political or campaign contributions globally, including to political action committees." We found no evidence of a public position statement to conduct engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement, although the company plans to establish one within two years.
