This website contains information about business conditions, the financial situation, and other factors that may influence investor decisions. Forward-looking statements are based on the judgments of the LIXIL group of companies’ management as of March 2025.

Statements concerning the future and assumptions are subject to uncertainty and risks, and actual results may vary significantly.

Key Risks and Countermeasures

The Group defines "Strategic risks" as risks that affect or are caused by business strategies and strategic objectives, and "Operational risks" as risks that affect the implementation of strategic plans.

The results of the assessment are reported to the Risk Management Committee, which selects the Group's key risks and prioritizes the risks to be addressed. In addition, the committee regularly monitors key risks, reviews risk responses, and confirms progress.

In addition, risks that could have a significant impact on the business in the long-term future (three to five years or later) are identified as emerging risks and countermeasures are being promoted.
