Overview and Identification of Materialities
The Company will continue to grow together with our customers, both as a company and as individuals, and
contribute to society through essential business that provide substantial benefits to the world, and bring joy
to the world. Under this philosophy, we will promote efforts to address environmental and social issues through
our business activities. We have identified four key materiality themes that we look to prioritize. As a
platform provider for BtoB transactions, we aim to achieve sustainable corporate growth and transform society
for the better.
We identified materialities in five steps. In Step 1 task organization, we prioritized and rated the importance
of 147 ESG initiatives based on an external evaluation* to identify current issues. In the business environment
analysis conducted as part of Step 2, we organized and prioritized Infomart's ESG initiatives in relation to
risk items created based on SASB/SDGs and global risk reports. In Step 3, we created a materiality map by
classifying the prioritized items from Step 1 (task organization) and Step 2 (business environment analysis). We
have mapped the key themes for Infomart. In Step 4, we aligned the selected key themes with the content from
internal hearings to finalize materiality selection. Finally, we arrived at the four key materialities for the
Company.
* External evaluation: GRI, TCFD, SASB, Refinitiv
