Salt Lake City—Recursion (Nasdaq: RXRX), a clinical stage TechBio company leading the space by decoding biology to industrialize drug discovery, today announced the release of its third annual Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Report. The report highlights the company’s approach, progress and goals in several important areas such as its commitment to patients, social and community impact, people and culture, environmental sustainability, and governance.

“Our vision of using AI and technology to create a better, more efficient process of discovering many new medicines is inherently a vision of sustainability. Efficiency – in our context – drives a more sustainable healthcare system,” said Chris Gibson, Ph.D., Co-Founder and CEO at Recursion. “Now in our third year of reporting on our ESG goals and progress, we’re not only pushing the boundaries of what is possible with TechBio to create a new paradigm in drug discovery, but also making strides to drive positive impacts for all of our stakeholders.”

Recursion has been widely recognized for its commitment to excellence in environmental, social and governance stewardship, including ranking 16 out of over 900 companies (approximately the top 2%) in the pharmaceutical category by Morningstar Sustainalytics as of January 2024. This ranking places Recursion in Sustainalytics’ 2024 Top-Rated ESG Companies List. Recursion also received a Prime Rating in 2023 for ESG performance from Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS). A Prime Rating is awarded to companies with ESG performance above a sector-specific threshold and is defined by ISS as “absolute best in class”. In February 2024, Recursion received an A Rating for ESG performance by MSCI.

Recursion’s ESG Report is guided by key ESG frameworks and standards, notably the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), The Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).
