We conduct business on a global scale across a broad range of business areas and utilize sophisticated, specialized technologies to carry out our operations. Therefore, we are exposed to risks attributable to the economic environment, risks inherent in individual industrial sectors and business lines and risks related to our operations. Investment in our securities also involves risks.
The following risks and countermeasures are based on assumptions we consider reasonable as of the date of submission of Annual Securities Report (The 155th Business Term). The countermeasures below will not necessarily eliminate the effects of the risks and may not effectively mitigate the effects. For more details, please see the annual securities report.
