At Tanseisha, we assess climate-related risks and opportunities in our business activities and strive to proactively disclose and enhance information in line with the "Governance, Strategy, Risk Management, Metrics and Targets" framework recommended to companies by the TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures). We will also take concrete measures to address climate change.
Our company is promoting sustainability initiatives in accordance with the Tanseisha Group Sustainability Policy, which states, "By confronting environmental and social issues through our business of creating valuable spaces and working sincerely to resolve them, we will strive to sustainably improve our corporate value and contribute to the realization of a colorful, sustainable society." We have established a Sustainability Committee to address sustainability-related issues, including climate change, and President and Chief Executive Ofcer serves as the committee's chair. The committee regularly reports its deliberations and status to the Board Director, and important sustainability-related policies are reviewed by the committee and then submitted to the Board Director for deliberation and decision-making.
Furthermore, with regard to "responding to climate change," "human capital management," and "responding to human rights," the committee has established subcommittees that specialize in the themes.
We view rising temperatures due to climate change, as well as the resulting social changes and disaster risks, as important issues and are actively working to address them. As part of this, we have undertaken to identify short-, medium-, and long-term risks and opportunities related to climate change and conducted scenario analysis. Specifically, we are considering two scenarios: a 1.5°C scenario and a 4°C scenario.
This approach is based on the international goal of limiting the rise in global average temperature since the Industrial Revolution to 1.5°C, as outlined in the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP).
In addition, we referred to future forecast reports published by governments and international organizations and comprehensively considered transition risks (policies, laws and regulations, markets, reputation), physical risks (acute risks, chronic risks) associated with climate change, and opportunities (products and services, markets, resilience) that arise from responding appropriately to climate change.

1.5℃ scenario |
International Energy Agency (IEA), "World Energy Outlook 2022" Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario (NZE Scenario) | A scenario that limits the rise in average temperature to less than 1.5°C by the end of the 21st century. In order to achieve sustainable development, bold policies and technological innovations will be implemented, and as a result, the social changes that accompany the transition to a decarbonized society are likely to have an impact on business. |
- Carbon taxes and other regulatory compliance costs will be added to prices for high-emission materials such as steel and concrete. ・ Environmental Consideration design will be required across the entire market - Low-carbon materials and recycled materials will become more widespread, and their adoption will become commonplace. ・Initiatives for sustainability are accelerating, and differentiation from competitors is required |
physical risk |
4℃ scenario |
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), "IPCC Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) SSP5-8.5 Scenario" | The average temperature will rise by about 4°C by the 21st century. It is more of a left-to-go situation, and no social changes will occur, but there is a greater possibility that abnormal weather and disasters caused by climate change will affect business. | ・The frequency of climate-related disasters occurring in our supply chain will increase, increasing the impact on our business activities and procurement. ・Frequent climate disasters around the world will make it difficult to procure raw materials. -Increasing and more severe heat waves will have a negative impact on field workers |

We constantly identify, evaluate, analyze, and take measures to address issues, including sustainability-related issues, that could have a significant impact on our business performance and financial position and could disrupt the smooth operation and growth of our business.
These risks in business activities are identified mainly by the Risk and Compliance Committee, chaired by President and Chief Executive Ofcer, which oversees and promotes risk management activities in accordance with the Loss Risk Management Regulations, and are evaluated based on criteria such as the likelihood of an event occurring and the degree of impact if it does occur.Based on the results of the evaluation, risks that management should place particular emphasis on are identified, risk countermeasures that should be implemented from an overall perspective are determined, and the implementation status of these countermeasures is monitored.
Important choices and decisions regarding the identification, assessment and countermeasures of the above risks are reported to the Board Director and are linked to management judgment and decision-making.
Climate change-related and human capital-related risks are identified and evaluated by the Sustainability Committee, which then reports to the Risk Management and Compliance Committee, where they are managed by integrating them into the overall risk assessment (risk recognition and evaluation) and risk countermeasure processes.
In our medium-term management plan (fiscal year ending January 2025 to fiscal year ending January 2027), we have set non-financial targets related to climate change. Specifically, we aim to reduce Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 40% compared to fiscal year 2021 (February 2021 to January 2022).
Our greenhouse gas emissions (Scope 1 and 2) for fiscal 2021 were 367t-CO2.
The trends in greenhouse gas emissions are as follows:
Fiscal Year 2021 | Fiscal Year 2022 | 2023 (reference) |

* Scope 2 emissions are calculated based on market standards.
* The data for fiscal 2023 has been revised from the figures stated in the securities report for the fiscal year ending January 2025 due to changes in calculation policy, the updating of emission factors, and a review of emission intensity.
The Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) is an international initiative established by the Financial Stability Board (FSB) in 2015 to encourage companies to disclose information on the financial impact of the risks and opportunities that climate change poses to their businesses.
