A Message from Our CEO

Peter Faricy

CEO

At SunPower, ESG is more than just a component of our business- it's integral to our mission, our identity, and our long-term success. Our mission is to change the way our world is powered, creating

a more sustainable future and delivering clean, affordable energy to homeowners in every corner of the country. It's not enough just to be a clean energy company. We believe that clean energy should be accessible to all regardless of their zip code or socioeconomic status, and we are leveraging our strengths to deliver that promise to consumers.

SunPower's ESG commitments include goals to reduce carbon emissions throughout our business, increase diversity across our workforce, support minority-owned businesses through a dealer diversity program, and contribute thousands of employee volunteering hours.

We believe that every action we take should be guided by our values, and we expect to be held accountable- by our customers, partners, investors and employees-as we work towards a brighter future.

As a company, we took important steps in 2021 towards reaching our ESG goals and setting new standards for our industry. We announced our 25x25 Initiative in September, establishing clear targets to increase the diversity of our workforce, expand solar access to those in historically disadvantaged communities, and ensure industry equity for women and people of color by 2025. In December, we launched SunPower Financial, a financial services institution that will make clean energy more affordable and accessible for U.S. homeowners. We recognize the hard and important work that needs to be done to improve diversity and equity in

every aspect of the consumer solar experience, and we look forward to reaching our long-term benchmarks.

This is a critical moment to stem the effects of climate change and transition to clean, renewable energy. We are playing an important role in ensuring this transition is within reach for everyone. As the nation's longest- standing solar energy company,

we understand our responsibility in leading this transition. We will do everything in our power to foster solar adoption among U.S. consumers and build a more sustainable planet.

Thank you for your support as we work together on this mission.
