Better Health for All

Perion Network Ltd.'s core business is digital advertising, which has no significant direct positive or negative health impact.

The company does not generate revenue from products with established negative health outcomes and is not involved in industries such as alcoholic beverages, gambling, or tobacco. Its products do not have direct safety implications for physical or mental health, nor do they involve health-related pricing, R&D, or data. The company's operations do not intersect with healthcare workforce development, preventative health measures, or mental health initiatives in a way that would be scored by the rubric. While Perion engages in community activities like visiting patients at a hospital and providing care packages to families affected by conflict, there is no evidence of structured programs or measurable impact specifically addressing health disparities, equitable health access, or broader health crisis response.

Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

Perion Network Ltd. is a technology company providing advertising solutions, not a financial institution that lends, insures, moves, or stores money for consumers. Therefore, all KPIs related to financial services, such as underserved client share, pricing fairness, exploitative fee exposure, inclusion initiatives (loan/insurance book), fair lending compliance, wealth building outcomes, debt burden ratio, and product simplicity, are not applicable to its core business model. The company does not offer consumer credit products or manage consumer financial data. While Perion has initiatives like the Uplift Collective to support diverse media publishers and general CSR activities, these do not fall under the scope of financial inclusion or economic opportunity as defined by the rubric for financial services.

Similarly, data accessibility for job candidates or publishers is not equivalent to open-banking APIs for customer finance data.

Fair Pay & Worker Respect

Perion Network's employees report an overall satisfaction rating of 4.2 out of 5 stars on Glassdoor, with 81% of employees recommending working at the company.

The company's Undertone division was ranked 5th on the 2022 Ad Age Best Places to Work list. Employees rate compensation and benefits at 4.2 out of 5 stars. Health insurance is described as 'decent' and 'great benefits' by employees, with a compensation and benefits rating of 3.7 out of 5 stars. The company provides a $1,500 travel voucher and spot bonuses for performance.

Honest & Fair Business

No specific, concrete data points were found in the provided articles to score any of the KPIs for Honest & Fair Business. Information regarding regulatory fines, transparency index scores, whistleblower policies, financial restatements, audit coverage, ESG controversy index scores, complaint resolution times, board conflict-free percentages, anti-corruption policies, or third-party verification of ethical claims for Perion Network Ltd. was not explicitly stated.

While an investigation into possible federal securities law violations was announced in April 2024, no actual fines or confirmed violations were reported.

Kind to Animals

Perion Network Ltd. is a technology company that delivers advertising solutions. The provided articles do not contain any specific, concrete data points regarding the company's direct involvement in animal welfare, animal testing, animal-derived products, animal agriculture, or related policies and initiatives. One article mentions a client in the pet food industry, but this pertains to advertising services provided by Perion, not Perion's own operations or supply chain.

Therefore, all KPIs related to animal welfare are omitted due to a lack of explicit evidence.

No War, No Weapons

Perion Network Ltd. is a global technology company focused on advertising solutions, with no evidence of involvement in arms manufacturing, military contracts, or conflict facilitation.

The company's core business in search and display advertising does not involve defense-related activities, dual-use technologies, or procurement from conflict zones. Therefore, KPIs related to these areas are not applicable to its operations. There is no evidence of revenue from arms contracts, sales to embargoed regimes, or a specified proportion of revenue invested in peacebuilding initiatives. The company's operations are fully compliant with the Trustworthy Accountability Group (TAG), which is unrelated to Arms Trade Treaty compliance. While the company has a Code of Ethics, there is no specific information on codified red lines regarding weapons categories. The company's SORT® platform focuses on user privacy by replacing personal user data tracking, but this does not directly relate to military surveillance transparency.

Planet-Friendly Business

Perion Network Ltd. does not publicly report its carbon emissions data, nor does it specify reduction targets or initiatives.

There is no quantitative data available regarding its renewable energy usage, water consumption, green building certifications, waste diversion rates, or capital expenditure alignment with the EU Sustainable Taxonomy. The company also does not provide data on product lifecycle impact assessments, recycled material use, carbon offset quality, or investment in climate-positive initiatives. Information on supply chain climate transparency, supplier SBTi targets, biodiversity efforts, deforestation policies, environmental compliance violations, environmental impact assessments, net-zero targets, TCFD alignment, climate scenario analysis, stranded assets transparency, water sourcing from stressed basins, packaging CO2 reduction, climate justice initiatives, just transition programs, or climate adaptation financing is not available. While the company's products utilize Scope3 emissions data for digital advertising, no specific, concrete data points are provided for Perion's own operational environmental performance or disclosures across any of the KPIs.

Respect for Cultures & Communities

No specific, quantitative data points relevant to the 'Respect for Cultures & Communities' KPIs were found in the provided articles. While Article 1 details various community engagement activities and volunteer efforts, such as donating to BOMESI, distributing donuts, assembling care packages, assisting with meal preparation, supporting farmers, and visiting patients, these do not provide the specific metrics required by the rubric.

For instance, there is no information on the number of formal partnerships with indigenous or local community groups, the percentage of revenue reinvested in local community development, or details on cultural impact assessments or incident responses. Articles 0, 2, 3, and 4 explicitly state a lack of relevant quantitative data for these metrics.
