Better Health for All

Pixelworks' core business involves providing visual processing semiconductor and software solutions to enhance viewing experiences in mobile, home & enterprise, and cinema applications.

The company's technology aims to optimize power, cost, bandwidth, and overall system performance, and enables features like AI-based super resolution and rendering acceleration without generating excessive heat or battery consumption. These products and services do not directly develop accessible medical treatments, provide preventative healthcare solutions, or champion mental and physical wellness programs, thus having a neutral net health effect. The company's products do not have direct safety implications for physical or mental health, and no safety incidents or adverse events related to health were reported. While the company is subject to system security and data protection breaches, this is a general operational risk and the company does not collect or manage health-related data, making the healthcare data responsibility KPI not applicable.

Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

Pixelworks, Inc. is a technology company that provides video and display processing solutions, not a financial institution.

The company does not offer lending, deposit, or other consumer financial services. Consequently, all KPIs within the 'Fair Money & Economic Opportunity' rubric, which are designed to assess financial service providers, are not applicable to Pixelworks' core business. No evidence was found in the provided articles to score any of these KPIs beyond the 'not applicable' tier.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

No specific quantitative data is provided regarding Pixelworks, Inc.'s fair trade and ethical sourcing practices.

While the company's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics outlines a commitment to legal and ethical conduct, and an SEC Form SD details conflict minerals due diligence efforts for 2014, the available information does not include percentages for fair-trade certified spend, supplier audit frequency, number of forced or child labor incidents, supply chain traceability coverage, remediation speed for violations, ethical clause coverage in supplier contracts, share of spend on high-risk materials, or supplier diversity spend.

No War, No Weapons

No specific, concrete data points were found across the provided articles to score any of the KPIs for the 'No War, No Weapons' ethical value. While the company has a Conflict Minerals Policy and conducts country of origin inquiries regarding conflict minerals, the evidence does not provide the quantitative data or specific actions required by the rubric's KPIs.

For instance, no percentage of the supply chain certified conflict-free is provided, nor is a specific frequency for human rights due diligence. There is no information regarding revenue from arms contracts, dual-use technology, sales to embargoed regimes, peacebuilding investments, or any other defense-related activities or policies.

Zero Waste & Sustainable Products

Pixelworks, Inc. does not report specific waste reduction targets.

The company has a Conflict Minerals Policy and expects its suppliers to have policies to ensure conflict-free minerals, encouraging them to use smelters validated under the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP). However, the company has been unable to determine the origin of all conflict minerals due to non-conformant smelters or non-responsive suppliers, and is working with direct suppliers to eliminate their use.
