Addressing Climate Change

The Bandai Namco Group believes that measures to address climate change are essential for the realization of a sustainable society and for the sustainable growth of its businesses. Accordingly, we established the Bandai Namco Group Sustainability Policy in April 2021. We also agree with the aim of the Paris Agreement to “keep a global temperature rise this century well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase even further to 1.5 degrees Celsius.” In order to further accelerate our efforts to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, we have established medium- to long-term targets for the transition to a decarbonized society. In addition, in 2021, we began disclosing information in line with the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). In September 2023, we officially announced our support for these recommendations. We also participate in the TCFD Consortium and strive to collect the latest information on climate change.

In fiscal 2024, we upgraded our scenario analysis to provide a more detailed understanding of the impacts of climate change on the Group. Specifically, in addition to future forecasts from external institutions, we used activity data from each business unit to assess the future impact on the Group for each of these units. Based on the results of this analysis, we will pinpoint the risks and opportunities that the Group should prioritize and strengthen our response going forward.
