8. Leased assets (upstream)

 N/A Included in scope 1 and 2.

9. Transportation and distribution (downstream)

 Excluded Excluded because Alps Alpine products are intermediate products and emissions cannot be reasonably calculated.

10. Processing of sold products

 Excluded Excluded because intermediate products sold are processed into a large variety of finished products, making it difficult to ascertain emissions and therefore calculations cannot be reasonably performed.

11. Use of sold products

 t-CO2 385,001 496,020 392,187 Consolidated

12. End of life treatment of sold products

 Excluded Excluded because emissions cannot be reasonably calculated as it is difficult to ascertain the disposal status of the finished products into which intermediate products sold are incorporated.

13. Leased assets (downstream)

 N/A Not applicable because there are no corresponding business activities.

14. Franchises

 N/A Not applicable because there are no corresponding business activities.
