Disclosure form
No single formulaReport the source-defined result with its stated fields and method disclosures. A22.2 is an Annex 2 optional additional TNFD metric and specifies a reportable percentage and/or monetary-value outcome by certification type. It is not the same construct as the shortlisted apparel-specific physical-inflow metric or sector-specific certification shares because those have different populations, boundaries, units and value shapes.

Evidence and status sources
Sustopedia checked each record-specific claim directly against primary publisher material. Labels distinguish current measurement authority from future compatibility and corroborative, legal, edition, or method status context. Corroborative evidence can support a stated limitation but cannot establish the core measurement by itself.

- Certification types used.
- Basis for determining that certifications are credible and third-party.
- Whether the reported measure is percentage, monetary value, or both.
- Denominator and calculation basis for any percentage reported.
- Currency and valuation basis for any monetary value reported.
- Treatment of certification overlap, if applicable.
Record-specific limitations
- The metric permits percentage and/or monetary-value reporting, which may limit comparability between organizations and reporting approaches.
- The source requires credible third-party certification but does not define a universal certification scheme or credibility assessment method.
- The source does not specify treatment of raw materials carrying more than one certification; overlap treatment should be disclosed.
Interpret this metric with the stated reporting boundary, period convention, value shape, and unit. Results prepared with different boundaries or conventions may not be directly comparable.
Measurement evidence supports the core record-specific claims described above. Corroborative evidence can support limitations, while compatibility and status sources provide their separately labelled context. None of these cards by itself determines an organisation's legal applicability, filing readiness, assurance status, or compliance conclusion.
