| FISCAL 2025 ESG GOALS AND TARGETS
At Compass Minerals, we recognize the importance of managing our environmental, social and governance (ESG) impacts and
growing our company in a sustainable manner. As we look to the future, we have been engaging stakeholders and internal
business partners in conversations as well as assessing the broader sustainability landscape to help inform our scal 2025 ESG
goals and targets that will guide us in the years ahead. These goals, and the targets that serve as milestones toward achieving
them, span the key focus areas of Our Workforce, Our Environment, Our Products and Our Communities. They are driven by the
four pillars of our sustainability compass — safety, growth, transparency and stewardship — and also informed by our most recent
materiality assessment completed in scal 2021. We will report progress against our goals and targets in our future ESG reports to
help ensure our stakeholders understand where we are each step of the way. For more information on our approach toward and
management of the ESG issues that matter most to our company and our stakeholders, please see our latest ESG report.
