Product Life Cycle Analysis 1 In 2021, we embarked on our first life cycle assessment (LCA) of our portfolio, internally using the same methodology across the FlashArray line to include specifically the FlashArray™ products. As part of this LCA, Pure engaged an FlashArray//C and FlashArray//XL. In 2022, we plan to expand our analysis to outside environmental consulting firm to assess how the FlashArray//X70 product FlashBlade and then the rest of our portfolio. compares to competitive all-flash arrays, and then expanded the assessment FlashArray//X70: Reduces GHG emissions and energy consumption FlashArray//C60: Reduces GHG emissions and energy consumption by over 84% when compared to a competitive all-flash array. by 75% when compared to a competitive hybrid array. FlashArray//XL170: Reduces GHG emissions and energy consumption by over 80% when compared to a competitive all-flash array. 1 Further analysis will account for GHG emissions from production, transportation and product end of life and the LCA is undergoing third-party critical review. 2 Operating at nominal power
