【Governance】
Based on the Sustainability Policy, the Board of Directors identifies sustainability issues andtargets (materiality) as important issues for sustainable growth and determines measures toresolve them.
From January 2023, we have assigned the role of promoting sustainability to the Headquarters
Administration Department as a Sustainability Management Structure for the entire YAMADAGroup. Administration Department receives the strategies decided by the management team,and the policies and guidelines are disseminated from Administration Department to eachdepartment of the Headquarters and production sites that makes up the global network, andinstructions and monitoring of on-site operations.

In this context, we have also positioned our response to climate change as a materiality issue,
which is monitored by Administration Department and managed under the PDCA cycle.

【Strategy】
We examined the risks and opportunities posed by climate change for the Group's main business,the manufacture of small household appliances, which is primarily plastic molding.

At this time, in developing our mid-term policy on GHG emissions reduction, we have analyzed
the composition of our GHG emissions and concluded that emissions from purchased goods
and services (Scope 3 Category 1) account for 81% of our total emissions, as shown below, andthat reduction of these emissions is most important.

Furthermore, the following is a calculation of the top 10 GHG emitting materials in this Scope 3
Category 1. Of these, three are plastics (resin-related), accounting for a total of 45%. Therefore,
GHG emissions generated in the process of using resins and plastic materials account for 33.5%of the total emissions of the entire YAMADA Group.

Therefore, our strategy is to first reduce emissions from the top 10 GHG emitters in Scope 3
Category 1 by reducing the use of resins at the design stage and shifting to raw materials withlower GHG emissions.

【Risk Management】
In order to promptly and accurately respond to risks that may directly or indirectly interfere with
the Group's management or business operations, the Group's Headquarters Administration
Department formulates a variety of crisis response measures. Meanwhile, the Information
2

Security Management Office at the Headquarters is responsible for responding to recent cyberattacks.
For risks related to climate change, Administration Department will compile data and formulate
strategies, and in the event of a crisis, a task force will be established according to the level ofthe crisis to implement appropriate measures.
The contents of the Crisis Management Committee meetings are shared with the Board ofDirectors, which oversees and monitors company-wide crisis management and ensuresconsistency between risk assessment and materiality analysis, thereby strengthening risk
management throughout the company.

【Metrics and Targets】
In order to curb global warming, which is a social issue for all mankind, we have set the goal ofachieving carbon neutrality in our global business activities by 2040, and as a milestone toachieve this goal, we have set the goal of reducing our CO2 emissions by 40% in 2030 compared
to 2020. emissions by 40% from the 2020 level by 2030 as a milestone.
