RNS Number : 5423O Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. 26 June 2025
Wheaton Precious Metals Named Among Corporate Knights' 50 Best Corporate Citizens in Canada
Vancouver, British Columbia - Wheaton Precious Metals™ Corp. ("Wheaton" or
the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has again been named as one of
Corporate Knights' 2025 Best 50 Corporate Citizens in Canada.
"I am extremely proud that Wheaton has once again been recognized among the
top 10 companies on Corporate Knights' annual Best 50 Corporate Citizens
index," said Randy Smallwood, Wheaton's President and Chief Executive Officer.
"This ranking reflects Wheaton's commitment to responsible operations across
all areas of our business and underscores the quality and sustainability
performance of our mining partners."
Corporate Knights' Best 50 Corporate Citizens ranking is based on an
assessment of publicly traded companies on a Canadian stock exchange,
privately-owned corporations headquartered in Canada and Canadian Crown
corporations with revenue over $1 billion. Companies are evaluated on a set of
up to 25 key performance indicators to assess how firms manage their
resources, employees and finances in comparison to their peer group, with 50%
of each company's score tied to the percentage of their revenue and
investments that qualify as sustainable.
Earlier this year, Wheaton was also recognized among Corporate Knights' 2025
100 most sustainable corporations in the world.
