ーーーー・ Switch power consumption in offices to power derived from renewable energy sources.・ Continuously monitor and strive to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.・ Choose data centers and cloud solutions with low environmental impact and high energy efficiency.・ Cost increases due to new carbon taxes could be imposed on the Group’s CO₂ emissions.・ In an environment where customers are choosing data centers with less environmental impact, we could lose sales opportunities by continuing to use existing data centers with high environmental impact.・ Costs to implement measures could increase, such as changing to a data center with low environmental impact.・ Sales could decline due to less demand for crypto asset trading platforms as a result of the massive power consumption required for blockchain mining.・ Loss of trust from customers or shareholders by failing to implement adequate climate change measures could reduce corporate value, causing long-term damage to the Group’s brand image.・ Conduct ongoing surveys of environmental regulation trends and consider coping measures.・ Use climate change as an opportunity to more clearly define risk management.・ Proactively disclose non-financial sustainability information.・ Participate in international climate change initiatives.・ Regularly review BCP plans and regularly conduct emergency drills.・ Avoid or reduce disaster risks by geographically distributing data centers and utilizing cloud computing.・ Business opportunities could be lost due to data center outages.Based on the above analysis, we identified the risks and opportunities that could impact our business activities due to climate change, as detailed in the table below. Note that, in considering each item, we referred to the IEA (International Energy Agency) WEO 2022 Net Zero by 2050, IEA WEO 2022 STEPS, IPCC RCP8.5 scenario, etc. For the calculation method of the impact on the business, details of each scenario and our perception of the business environment under each scenario, please visit our website.Major impact on the GroupMediumFor more detailed information, please visit our website. https://www.simplex.holdings/en/sustainability/environment/tcfd/60Risks and opportunitiesTypePolicy and legal riskMarket riskTransitionrisksReputational riskPhysical risksImpactCarbon Pricing MechanismChanging Customer BehaviorSector condemnationMore stakeholder concerns or negative stakeholder feedbackIncreased frequency of typhoons, floods, and other extreme weather events that cause extensive damageBusiness impactTimelineBelow 2℃Below 4℃MediumtermLowMediumtermMediumMediumtermLowMediumtermLowLongtermLowPossible measuresWith respect to the impact of each risk and opportunity on our business, we conducted an analysis under two scenarios: a scenario where global temperatures rise by less than 2°C (“below 2°C scenario”), in which climate change policies and regulations are expected to progress; and a scenario where they rise by 4°C (“4°C Scenario”), in which disasters would become more severe and chronic risks caused by global warming are expected. From the analysis, we calculated the impact (impact score) on the business along the two axes of financial impact and likelihood of occurrence, as shown below.Impact of Climate Change on the Group
