Welcome Michelle Gass Chief Executive Officer 2021 ESG REPORT This past year, Kohl’s continued to make progress against our 2025 environmental goals, we continued to support communities nationwide with more than $30 million in resources and we made progress against our Diversity & Inclusion framework that we articulated in 2020. As the country continues to address racial inequities, we are committed to being part of making meaningful progress for more equitable actions and outcomes. While we know there is much more to do, we are driven by the progress we have made and the promise of more to come. As a purpose-led organization, ESG stewardship will continue to be an integral piece of Kohl’s culture and an important component of the company’s strategic vision to be the most trusted retailer of choice for the active and casual lifestyle. Sincerely, Dear Stakeholders, 2021 represented the second year in the global COVID-19 pandemic, which continued to act as a stark reminder of how dependent we are in collectively caring for each other and the planet we share. I continue to be so appreciative and impressed with how our associates and our company have managed through this ongoing pandemic to support our customers, our business and one another. Kohl’s has a long-standing commitment to being a responsible corporate citizen. We believe in supporting our associates, our customers and our communities through our environmental, social and governance (ESG) stewardship. I am proud that Kohl’s approaches our ESG efforts as both our responsibility and our privilege to be part of making a positive difference. As presented in this 2021 ESG report, we have continued to take meaningful steps to ensure Kohl’s leaves a smaller environmental footprint on the planet while also making a positive difference in the lives of families nationwide, including our Kohl’s associates, our valued customers and the community partners we are honored to serve. We remain committed to the highest standards of integrity and performance and are dedicated to fostering a best-in-class workplace that celebrates transparency, opportunity and appreciation. Michelle Gass, Chief Executive Officer 3
