Assessment Scope & Disclaimer

This assessment is based solely on information disclosed in the company's Japanese-language Annual Securities Report filed through EDINET.

It does not assess the human capital initiatives a company actually implements or the company's human capital capabilities themselves.

Items for which no disclosure was identified in the Annual Securities Report receive no points, regardless of whether the company actually implements the relevant initiatives.

This English-language assessment is a translation of the original Japanese assessment and is provided for convenience. In the event of any discrepancy, the Japanese assessment prevails.
