Teva Announces New Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Strategy and Goals in 2020 Report

Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE and TASE: TEVA) today published its 2020 Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Progress Report detailing the company's efforts to advance health and equity, minimize its impact on the planet and dedicate itself to quality, ethics and transparency.

The report highlights new ambitious goals, including launching eight programs to increase access to medicines globally by 2025 and reducing Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 33% by 2030. These goals are being integrated into Teva's corporate strategy, with some directly linked to executive compensation.

For the first time, the company's ESG Progress Report aligns with the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). It also includes external verification of additional environmental and employee data.

"Teva's latest ESG Progress Report reflects the importance of health and the healthcare industry," said Kåre Schultz, President & CEO of Teva. "Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Teva ensured the uninterrupted supply of our medicines to patients, while protecting our employees, partnering with governments and healthcare organizations, providing potential treatments and helping to distribute vaccines and tests. With our collective progress, new goals and enhanced reporting, 2020 cemented ESG as integral to our company's long-term sustainability and resilience."

In collaboration with partners, patients, communities and governments, Teva's ESG achievements in 2020 included:

• Donating $571 million worth of medicines to patients in need, more than double its 2019 donations
• Safeguarding employee health and well-being, with its best employee safety performance to date
• Reducing Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 25% from 2017
• Strengthening inclusion and diversity (I&D) across its workforce, with 82% of employees reporting Teva's culture promotes I&D
• Fostering a culture of compliance and ethics, publishing seven policies and positions and training more than 20,000 employees on key ethical behavior topics

This progress reflects Teva's improved ESG performance, which was recognized in key indices last year. S&P Global ranked Teva in the top 30% of pharmaceutical companies?a 15% increase from 2019?and Sustainalytics ranked Teva in the top 10% of pharmaceutical companies. The company's CDP climate change score improved from B to A- as a result of its greenhouse gas emissions reduction initiatives, and Teva was the second ranked generics company in the Access to Medicine Foundation's Antimicrobial Resistance Benchmark.

"ESG is everyone's business at Teva, and this report reflects our employees' cumulative contributions," says Mark Sabag, EVP, HR, GCB at Teva. "Our renewed ESG strategy authentically represents our commitments to the communities in which we live and the patients we serve."

In its 120^th year, Teva remains dedicated to supporting the needs of communities, employees and patients?maintaining an ESG mindset as it delivers quality medicines to nearly 200 million people every day. Read more about Teva's 2020 ESG Progress Report here.
