As social interest in sustainability continues to rise, we are strongly aware of our responsibilities as a corporation, and are advancing proactive initiatives accordingly. Our efforts go beyond mere environmental measures, driven by the belief that addressing social issues sincerely leads to sustainable corporate growth.
One such effort is the launch of new businesses, including those related to reused batteries. We are reexamining how we can best contribute to society and view it as our responsibility and mission as a member of the automotive industry to make a meaningful contribution to the circular economy and decarbonization.
As an example of our sustainability achievements, we received a bronze medal in the sustainability rating by EcoVadis, reflecting the recognition of our ongoing efforts. In addition, under the FY2024 Business Operator Classification Evaluation System (SABC Evaluation System), we were rated an Excellent Energy Saving Business Operator (Class S) for our superior energy-saving initiatives.
Within our mid-term business plan, sustainability is clearly positioned as a new challenge area. We will continue to set forth concrete measures across the entire Group and address this critical area with firm commitment.
