Current sourcing scores were determined by an averaged percentage of palm fruit oil, palm kernel oil, and palm oil derivatives a company is currently buying which is either:

• deforestation- and peat-free;
• CSPO or sustainable palm oil.

Different forms of palm oil were given different weight:

• Deforestation- and peat-free palm oil was given full weight.
• Physically sourced CSPO or sustainable palm fruit oil, CSPO or sustainable palm kernel oil (physical or GreenPalm), and CSPO or sustainable palm derivatives (physical or GreenPalm) were weighted at 0.5.
• CSPO palm fruit oil sourced through GreenPalm (PFOGP) was given a weighting of 0.25.

The following equation was used to determine each companies score for this criterion:
