*1. Although the Company has leased assets (equipment), all are included in Scope 2 for electricity use, so they are excluded from the calculation.
*2. The sold products are intermediate products such as wall materials, flooring materials, and fabrics (curtains, upholstery, etc.), and are not products that use energy in the direct use stage, but rather emissions in the indirect use stage, so they are excluded from the calculation.
*3. Although the Company leases its own properties, it does not have a direct relationship with the lessee, such as specifying the use of the property, so it is excluded from the calculation.
*4. The Company does not operate through a franchise, so it is excluded from the calculation.
*5. This category is mainly for private financial institutions (commercial banks), so it is excluded from the calculation.
