MESSAGE FROM CEO“Being recognized forincreasing Corporate Value”

The Japanese economy recovered some of its strength during fiscal year 2013 with so-called “Abenomics” in the
background. However, the business environment for our company was not necessarily favorable with factors such as
drastic changes in the electronics industry and ever so volatile precious metal markets.
In this environment, we have focused on the three key strategies outlined in our mid-term plan. The processing plantat our Taiwan business, which we launched the previous year, has commenced operations, and activities at ourVietnam representative office is in good progress. We have steadily expanded our business in other Southeast Asianand East Asian countries. Going forward, we are also determined to make strong efforts in areas outside of Asia.
In March 2014, we have acquired and added KOEIKOGYO to our group of companies. The company is engaged indesign and construction of facilities for disaster prevention, air-conditioning and sanitation, and is in the samebusiness domain as INTER CENTRAL, which we acquired in 2012. We expect the two companies to have synergetic
effects and to mutually grow in the air-conditioning design and construction area. With regards to M&A, we plan to
be open minded and will pursue opportunities in broad fields.
In terms of group management, we will continue our efforts to be lean and effective, and to operate with agility
and speed, leveraging Information Technology and other tools.
Our stock has been selected as one of the composition stocks for “JPX-Nikkei Index 400”, a new index that theTokyo Stock Exchange established at the beginning of 2014. We consider this an honor, and are very proud to be oneof the 400 selected among the 3400 or so listed companies in Japan. We have always managed our companies
with emphasis on effective use of capital, and other shareholder oriented policies, and we consider the selection to
the Index a high recognition of this management philosophy. We appreciate and value this selection just like ourselection to the list of “ESG Themed Stocks” the previous year (ESG stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance).
We will continue to strive to be “strongly aware of ESG” and to “achieve sustained growth in corporate value”.
Your continued support will be highly appreciated. Thank you.

Start-up Factory Operation in Taiwan

In December 2013, Asahi Pretec Taiwan commenced
its factory operation at Hsinchu Industrial District,adjacent to Hsinchu Science Park. The factory develops
both “Precious Metal Recycling Business” and “Precision
Cleaning Business”. In the recycling business, we recoverand recycle precious metals with efficiency, yielding

manufacturing equipment. The cleaning business are
conducted by Asahi Shih Her Technologies, which wasestablished in March 2013 as a subsidiary of Asahi Pretec
Taiwan as a JV with Shih Her Technologies.
Taiwan is the agglomerations of electronics, semiconductor, and other high-tech industries. Especially,
Hsinchu Science Park, where our factory is adjacent to, iscongregated with world-class companies, factories andresearch laboratories and offers a great atmospherewith nature and cultural environment resources. The
park contribute a lot to the development of the global
high-tech industries. As a group company of Asahi
Holdings, Asahi Pretec Taiwan will continuously expand
the precious metal recycling business and the precision
cleaning business in Taiwan.

Treatment of Specified Hazardous
Waste Acid, Waste Alkaline and Waste
Reagents
It is necessary to appropriately treat waste acid and waste
alkaline discharged from plants and business offices andwaste reagents which are unnecessary at laboratories andinstitutes of universities and private companies. Thesevarious kinds of waste are treated for detoxification on theline exclusively at each plant by utilizing technology which
has been cultivated over many years by our group underthorough safety management procedures. Waste is separately stored in containers in accordance with classification
standards of our group and measures are taken to prevent
abnormal reactions during collection, transportation andstorage. We analyze and provide appropriate treatment ofwaste reagent with a bottle being peeled off label, which
precludes the gauge of the content.

Waste Reagent Treatment Facility

High-Speed Microbial Treatment ofWaste Acid/Alkaline and Sludg
After removing hazardous substances from waste liquids
from plants and offices, even if liquids contain nitrogen andphosphorus, they are detoxified and purified to underenvironmental management standards value for water
discharge by our original technology, such as microbial
treatment, etc., and are discharged. In particular, energy
consumption and CO 2 emissions are lower than the ones ofother treatment methods.
Sludge after neutralization and dewatering of waste liquids
are reused for raw materials of non-ferrous metals and steel.
Some sludge which cannot be recycled is sent for landfill
disposal.

Micro Organisms Facility

Concreting of Hazardous Substances
Some wastes from incinerators that contain burnt residues,
dust, sludge and harmful substances (heavy metal such asarsenic, lead, chrome, selenium, etc. and dioxin.) may not besuited for recycling. We process concrete with waste into asolidified form (insoluble) in such a way that harmful substances will not be eluted. We possess original facilities andtechnologies that prevent harmful substances from eluting
into the natural environment even under powerful acidic
conditions.

Recycling of waste oil and sludge
Based on analysis results, various kinds of waste oil and liquid waste are blended in an
optimal formula, and the ingredients are adjusted to produce supplementary fuels used in
cement production and waste incineration. Furthermore, sludge and burnt residues arealso recycled into cement materials by adjusting their ingredients and moisture and by
kneading. Thoroughgoing analysis is also performed upon receiving and shipping for its
quality maintenance control as qualified recycled materials.
