Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Comprehensive	E Ink Holdings Inc. demonstrates a comprehensive climate lobbying governance process that aligns with its commitment to the Paris Agreement and broader climate goals. The company has established a clear governance structure, with the Green Production subcommittee participating in lobbying activities and industry association memberships, and regularly collecting data on climate-related commitments and GHG reduction targets. This information is reported to the Corporate Sustainability Committee, with oversight by the Chairman. E Ink also ensures alignment of its lobbying activities with its climate objectives by regularly reviewing and monitoring the progress of its low-carbon initiatives, lobbying activities, and industry associations. The company has a defined process for addressing misalignments, including making public statements, engaging with trade associations with clear timelines and escalation processes, and considering withdrawal from associations if necessary. Furthermore, E Ink plans to strengthen its policies in 2023 to establish comprehensive climate change management policies that include lobbying activities and trade association memberships. Oversight is robust, with the Chairman and the Board of Directors involved in monitoring and implementation, and the company actively engages in dialogues and policy advocacy to align with its corporate goals. This indicates a strong governance framework that encompasses both direct and indirect lobbying activities, with clear monitoring mechanisms and accountability structures in place. View Sources	A

Lobbying Transparency

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Moderate	E Ink Holdings demonstrates a moderate level of transparency in its climate policy lobbying. It discloses the structures it employs — engaging through named industry associations such as the Taiwan Panel & Solution Association and the European Chamber of Commerce Taiwan’s Low Carbon Initiative, participation in legislative workshops, collaboration with public-sector entities, and oversight by its Green Production Task Force — but stops short of identifying specific policymaking targets like particular government ministries or regulators. While the company outlines its participation in initiatives such as RE100, SBTi, and the ECCT-LCI, as well as its support of Taiwan’s 2050 net-zero pathway and contributions to workshops by the Environmental Protection Administration, these reflect broad policy initiatives and strategic goals rather than defined statutes or regulatory proposals. E Ink is most explicit about the outcomes it seeks, including net-zero carbon emissions by 2040, 100% renewable energy by 2030, expanded renewable energy adoption throughout its supply chain, and strengthened resource-circulation and renewable energy legislation. This combination of disclosed mechanisms, initiative-level policy engagements, and clearly articulated desired outcomes indicates a moderately transparent approach to its climate lobbying.	C
