  • 1,547,725 pounds of equipment routed to reuse, a 51 percent reuse rate (up 18 percentage points from 2024)
  • 862,826 pounds of commodities recovered for return to the supply chain
  • Circularity Score of 90, the highest annual score HOBI has recorded
  • Scope 2 emissions of 251 metric tons CO2e, an 8 percent reduction
  • Scope 3 Category 9 (downstream transportation) emissions of 233 metric tons CO2e, reported for the first time as a baseline

Total weight received includes equipment still in processing at year-end, so it does not equal the combined weight of reuse and commodities.
