On 2 June we have released a new SDI Classification and SDI Innovation Outlook dataset. We maintain a quarterly release schedule to ensure the SDI dataset reflects changes in index constituents and incorporates the latest annual reporting.

SDI Classification

In the June 2025 universe, 9,510 companies were assessed. 2,050 were identified as SDI of which 1,203 as majority (>50% of revenue is SDI) and 847 as decisive (>10%, <50% of revenue is SDI). 

For the negative contribution, 583 companies were identified as majority negative (>50% of revenue is negative), and 235 companies were identified as decisive negative (>10%, <50% of revenue is negative).
