We believe it is an important role for companies to identify key issues, considering factors such as the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) and the environment surrounding our corporate management, and to work toward solving these issues through our business activities. This is essential in addressing various social challenges, including large-scale natural disasters caused by climate change and human rights issues.

Since our founding in 1943, we have contributed to people's prosperity, peace of mind, and safe living through the development and provision of electronic components, including resistors, Module Products, and sensors. Going forward, leveraging our proprietary technologies, we aim to strengthen product development focused on creating social value for a new era, with a primary emphasis on Digital Transformation (DX) and Green Transformation (GX).

Furthermore, we recognize that diversity in our workforce is essential. We will continue to enhance our organizational environment to increase human capital value. Simultaneously, we will strengthen our corporate governance framework, including building a resilient management structure capable of responding to uncertainties arising from environmental and societal changes.

Through the participation of management and many employees, we have identified material issues from the perspectives of Environment (E), Social (S), and Governance (G), anticipating the future impacts on the company from climate change-related risks and shifts in social structures. We position these identified material issues as the foundation of our management and will strive for business growth by addressing them as a unified company. We believe this approach will also fulfill our corporate purpose by contributing to the future society.
