OUR APPROACH / CEO MESSAGE • We redefined our commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), through the launch of our House+Home CSR strategy . • We contributed almost $4.5 million in 2021 to support United Way programming that positively impacts the health, education and financial stability of the communities in which we operate. • We renewed our longstanding relationship with Habitat for Humanity , re-committing to our 22-year, more than $130 million collaboration that helps provide climate-resilient and energy- efficient homes and appliances to those in need. • We took action on our pledge to Equality and Fairness for our Black Colleagues and made progress on our commitments. We launched robust unconscious bias and empathy training for all people leaders and broke ground on the building of a multi-family housing development in the city of Benton Harbor, Michigan, as part of our housing commitment to attract diverse occupants as residents of the community. • We expanded our scope of limited assurance from our external auditor Ernst & Young, which now includes our disclosure of greenhouse gas emissions, diversity and inclusion, health and safety, and product safety metrics to provide further confidence in the quality of our reporting. • We remain committed to being a participant in the United Nations (UN) Global Compact as we continue to expand our efforts to uphold sustainable and responsible business practices in our day-to-day global operations. Our experience and results prove sound corporate citizenship and environmental performance are fundamentals of good business. Combined with our agile and resilient business model, we are well positioned to succeed in any operating environment. I look forward to sharing more updates on our progress as we continue our sustainability journey to create value.
