In May 2021, the DOWA Group set up the Climate Change Committee and has pushed forward with climate change initiatives throughout the Group, repeating discussion of our actions in line with the TCFD recommendations. To further accelerate climate change initiatives, in February 2022, we expressed our support for the TCFD recommendations through a resolution by the Board of Directors. [...] The DOWA Group regards climate change as an important issue for its business management and the Group's Sustainability Committee deliberates on the management of risks and opportunities relating to climate change issues. Important matters concerning managerial risks and opportunities are brought and reported to the Board of Directors. The Sustainability Committee is chaired by president and, in principle, meets biannually. Upon receiving an agenda or report by the Committee, the Board of Directors shares issues involving climate change-related risks and opportunities and holds discussions for goal management and problem solving. [...] The DOWA HOLDINGS Board of Directors supervises company-wide, sustainability-related policies and goals, including measures against climate change and the organizations that manage and implement such policies and goals. [...] The Sustainability Subcommittee regards climate change as an important issue and monitors the DOWA Group's action against climate change. Across the DOWA Group, we identify and evaluate risks and opportunities associated with climate change and discuss and make action policies, goals and measures. They are reported to the Sustainability Committee along with important risks and opportunities.
