Our Aim to Sustainably Develop Society and Business by Realizing Our Two Visions

The Yamato Group's Social

and Environmental Material Issues

(Materiality)

VALUE CREATION BY THE NEW YAMATO GROUP

In January 2020, the Yamato Group formulated its grand design for its management over the medium to long term, the transformation plan "YAMATO NEXT100." As part of this plan, we established "sustain- ability initiatives under the theme 'management embodying the environment and society,'" as one of the infrastructure reforms, set forth our environmental and social visions for a sustainable future, identified important material issues (materiality), and set long-term targets, such as for virtually zero greenhouse gas emissions* by 2050.

Additionally, under our sustainable plans Medium-Term Environmental Plan 2023 and Medium-Term Social Plan 2023, formulated in January 2021, we set out specific actions to be taken to address each important material issue (materiality) and targets to be achieved by 2023 in order to realize these visions. Based on these plans, we are promoting initiatives for the sustainable development of society and business.
