FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Suncor Energy to provide enhanced disclosure for investors
Calgary, Alberta (April 18, 2016) Suncor today announced that enhanced disclosure around carbon risk and its lobbying activities will be provided in the 2016 Report on Sustainability to be issued in July.
As part of this enhanced disclosure, Suncor will provide further information about how the company is expected to succeed in a low carbon future. Regarding lobbying practices, Suncor will expand its disclosure by publishing its policy on lobbying and political donations, and list trade associations that lobby government to which Suncor pays membership dues of greater than $50,000 and $100,000 per year. Suncor will continue to disclose its political donations as has been done in the past.
Suncor has a demonstrated track record of transparent reporting as evidenced by the disclosure we provide in our Report on Sustainability, and our recognition by the Carbon Disclosure Project and the Dow Jones Sustainability Index, said Steve Williams, president and chief executive officer. We believe additional disclosure about the resilience of our business strategy in a transition to a low carbon future benefits shareholders and stakeholders.
Suncors enhanced disclosure is consistent with its strong focus on sustainability, reflects its openness to engage with shareholders and stakeholders and reflects best practice within the energy industry in Canada.
A presentation summarizing Suncors perspective and Managements recommendation on the two proposed shareholder resolutions described in Suncors Management Proxy Circular 2016 dated February 25, 2016 is available on its website.
