Greetings to our valued clients, business partners, local communities and shareholders. I would like to take this opportunity toextend my most sincere appreciation to you all for your ongoing support of our organization. It gives me great pleasure to announce
that 2021 marks the 111th anniversary of the Uchida Yoko Group.
The working population in Japan is expected to contract due to the declining birthrate, and this will have a major impact on
Japanese society and the industrial structure of the nation. Key clients of the Uchida Yoko Group—businesses, local and national
government bodies and educational institutions—can expect to experience transformational changes, with 2025 looming as a major
turning point.
The COVID-19 pandemic has spread through the world at an unprecedented pace. It has had a major impact on all areas ofsociety, with a huge increase in the number of people working from home, schools moving to online learning and digital technology
increasingly pervading the day-to-day operations of both public and private sectors. But if we take a broad overview, we see thatfalling birthrates and the coronavirus pandemic have both had a similar impact in terms of major changes in social structure. In
other words, coronavirus has simply accelerated the medium to long term changes that we needed to make in response to ourshrinking population.
In 2015 the Uchida Yoko Group released a new management policy predicated on harnessing our historical strengths to transformthe way we work, learn and create spaces, with a view to the major changes in the social structure from 2025 onwards. This aligns
with the key principles of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) espoused by the United Nations, and also dovetails with
the Society 5.0 blueprint from the Japanese government.
This year, as we mark our 111th anniversary, we reaffirm our commitment to the social responsibilities inherent in our management
policy. We look forward to your continued support and engagement.

President and Chief Executive Officer

Noboru Okubo

Utilization of domestic timber

We used cedar and stone materials from the town of Takahatamachi, making use of color variations, knots and similar features ofthe lumber in the final interior design. The result was a 99% usageof locally produced wood materials. The bookshelves are capableof holding approximately 100,000 books and other documents intotal, and smart tags (with IC chips) enable the use of automatedbook-checkout machines. By using the multi-contractor approach,we were able to achieve local material usage in this project.

●

System)●Since 2004, Uchida Yoko has been carrying out woodeninterior renovations using domestically produced lumber
through a wide range of different projects. We havepursued collaborative product development projects withlocal governments in lumber-production regions and actively
promoted the introduction of wood-based interior designs inschools, companies, airports and other public-use facilities.
Moreover, through the use of wood in child-rearing via
child-raising support facilities, unit-type production,
projects where children in local communities participate tohelp create new designs, hosting of educational seminars,
and other such efforts, we have endeavored to expose
people and communities to the wonders of wood materials
and products. In order to promote the use of made-inJapan wood materials in future local-region public facility
construction projects, we are focusing on multi-contractor
orders from the design stage onward and helping tocoordinate lumber procurement and processing operations.

Uchida Yoko Group
111th Anniversary
Overview of Mantetsu

Uchida Yoko was founded
in 1910 in Dalian,China.
Yoko is the Chinese term
for a shop run by foreigners;
at that time, the word also
symbolized the frontier spirit
demonstrated by those who
took on the challenge ofstarting up a new business ina foreign country.

Headquarters of the Southern Manchurian Railway Company (Mantetsu)

The Southern Manchurian
Railway Company (Mantetsu)
was founded in 1906 andexpanded on a wide scale
to include roughly 400,000
employees throughout China,
with business focused primarilyon the railroad industry.

The pioneering spirit of founder
Kotaro Uchida
Kotaro Uchida was born in 1871, the second son of renowned jujutsu master Tatsuzo Munetaka
Uchida of Takuhan (now the city of Taku in Saga prefecture).
This was a time when the samurai class was rapidly disappearing under the Meiji Restoration.
Having experienced grinding poverty that threatened the very survival of his family, the young Uchida was determined to makesomething of himself as a pioneer in the new world.
In 1893, Japan was working feverishly to achieve industrial modernization andnational prosperity while building up her military capacity.
At 22 years of age, Uchida journeyed alone to Tokyo, and started working
at the Yokohama Post Office run by the Ministry of Communications.
He was transferred to the Taipei Post Office in 1900, shortly after the end of the Sino-Japanese War, to work as a surveyor for the
Taiwan Land Bureau, a job that saw him travelling the length and breadth of Taiwan.
Shortly after he arrived back in Japan the Russo-Japanese War broke out.
Uchida volunteered to serve in the railways field army and was dispatched to Manchuria.
When the war ended abruptly, the field army was converted into theSouthern Manchurian Railway Company.
Kotaro Uchida became and employee of the Southern Manchurian Railway Company
in 1907, at 36 years of age.

Corporate Spin-off from Mantetsu toCreate Surveying and Drawing Tool
Sales Company Suitaigo
However, Kotaro Uchida quit his job at Mantetsu at the age of 38 in order to rebuild
the Uchida household's business. Utilizing the skills he acquired as a surveyor,
Uchida founded the independent company Suitaigo in the Chinese City of Dalian's
Hitachi-cho district in 1910. Suitaigo was a seller of surveying and drawing tools,
which had proved vital in Mantetsu's expansion, and this company would later
become Uchida Yoko.

In 1910, he took advantage of his technical ability as a surveyor and foundedeffort. It was formally adopted into the school curriculum,and Uchida Yoko
immediately set up a national network of agencies to supply slide rules to“Suitaigo”(predecessor of Uchida Yoko) in Dalian, China, a wholesaler forschools. However the slide rule was subsequently abandoned under new

In 1981, Uchida Yoko released TES (Total Educational System), our conceptionof the role of computing technology in the modern classroom. This was followed
in 1984 by the launch of the CAI-ACE education system, a combination ofcomputers and other forms of education technology providing a visual and voicecommunication environment in five key domains: computers, linguistics,word

pioneering spirit was carried on under the first president Kenmin Uchida,
who launched a number of innovative products including Magic Ink in 1953,
which he discovered in the United States, as well as the Kent KD drawing set
from Germany, considered a premium quality product at the time. 1955 saw
the release of the Taiyo Calculator, the first ever manual calculator made inJapan. Kenmin Uchida explored new avenues such as the“business show”,
