We launched our sustainability program in 2019 and have been working diligently to lay the strategic foundations needed to facilitate action and enable long-term success. We have defined our strategic objectives and have implemented policies, procedures, and management systems to support our journey. To demonstrate our commitment, we enhanced our disclosure efforts by reporting to or in alignment with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), the Task Force for Climate-Related Disclosures (TCFD), GRESB (formerly known as the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark), Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS), MSCI, Sustainalytics, and by publishing Sustainability Reports since 2020. Additionally, with the evolving domestic and international regulatory environment, we are consistently monitoring compliance requirements and advancing efforts to enhance our data collection and reporting processes internally. We see an opportunity for us to make an impact, and we are confident in our ability to stay mindful of the issues that matter most.
Realty Income’s 2024 Sustainability Report includes our initiatives and progress. The report is prepared in accordance with the GRI Standards and built to align with other disclosure efforts, investor feedback, and annual ratings and rankings’ submissions.

Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD)
We recognize the risks and opportunities presented by the anticipated transition to a low-carbon economy, as well as the acceleration toward alignment with global efforts to support the Paris Agreement. In that light, we have spent a great deal of time and energy evaluating how and where our risks and opportunities lie by using the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) framework, assessing data analytics, strengthening underlying systems, and working more closely with our clients and partners to drive change.
