Measurement answer
What this metric measures
EU Taxonomy-eligible turnover share is the percentage of the compatible net-turnover denominator associated with activities described in the applicable Taxonomy delegated acts, whether or not those activities satisfy alignment criteria.

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.

Source-edition basis: Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 consolidated as of 1 January 2026; the applicable delegated-act, criteria and reporting-rule editions must be declared.
- Reporting entity identified as a non-financial undertaking or consolidated group
- Financial year, reporting perimeter, accounting standard and financial-statement line or note
- Applicable Taxonomy delegated act, activity-code edition and current or permitted transitional reporting-rule edition
- Eligible net-turnover numerator and compatible net-turnover denominator on the same accounting basis
- Supporting monetary amounts with ISO 4217 currency code and declared scale
- Economic activity and code, eligible environmental objective and alignment status kept distinct
- Aligned amounts included within eligibility rather than subtracted or treated as a separate universe
- Non-material or not-assessed rows kept visible with their denominator treatment
- Allocation and non-overlap controls; percentages are recomputed and never averaged
- Zero or unavailable denominator and eligibility-assessment treatment
Record-specific limitations
- Eligibility means the activity is described in an applicable delegated act; it does not establish alignment.
- This metric is not environmental performance, technical-screening compliance, minimum-safeguards compliance or an endorsement.
- Aligned activity is included within eligibility and must not be subtracted and relabelled as eligible.
- Activity or environmental-objective rows can overlap and require non-overlap controls before amounts are combined.
- Turnover, CapEx and OpEx eligibility shares have different denominators and must remain separate.
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.
