EBARA CORPORATION

Ebara Corporation has been continuously included in the "FTSE4Good Index Series," a leading index for ESG (environmental, social, and governance) investment, and the "FTSE Blossom Japan Index," which evaluates the performance of Japanese companies with excellent ESG practices.

The "FTSE4Good Index" is evaluated based on information disclosed by companies regarding environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risks and performance, and selects companies that are excellent in ESG practices. Our company has been included in this index for 17 consecutive years since 2002.

The "FTSE Blossom Japan Index" is designed to measure the performance of Japanese companies with excellent ESG practices, and was adopted in 2017 by the Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF), which manages Japan's public pensions, for ESG investment. We have been included in this index for two consecutive years since 2017.

We disclosed our important ESG issues in May 2018. Going forward, we aim to continue to grow sustainably together with society through our business and further increase our corporate value. Please see here for information on Ebara's external evaluation.
