Taisei Corporation’s history of tackling challenges has been passed down as a legacy based on the trust and track record we have cultivated.

Client: Kinki Sangyo Credit UnionDesigner: Taisei Corporation

We will achieve Japan’s first-ever ZEB Ready urban-style high-rise building of 60 meters tall or higher.

In July 2016, the Company renovated Taisei Sapporo Building to make it ZEB Ready*, and has already received orders to construct four ZEB-seeking buildings. We will continue to proactively conduct proposal activities to promote market-oriented ZEB.

Following the success of the 1964 Tokyo Olympic Games, Japan achieved rapid economic development and Taisei Corporation also developed new technologies successively.

In 1997, Taisei was awarded again the Imperial Invention Award for the spherical shield production process, a tunneling method developed jointly with IHI Corporation, as Japan’s first civil engineering technology to receive the award.

Kihachiro Okura, the founder, engaged in the construction and operation of buildings, in addition to pursuing direct import businesses, undertaking a series of pioneering projects. In 1946, the Company changed its corporate name to Taisei Corporation, becoming a non-family-controlled company, a rarity for construction companies at the time. In 1956, Taisei Corporation became the first company in the construction industry to list shares on the stock exchange.

■ Basic Policies [Medium-term Business Plan (FY2015–2017)]

Looking back on Fiscal 2016 We began undertaking the construction work for the main

arena of the new National Stadium Japan last December.

Taisei Corporation, having constructed the old National

Stadium Japan, has strong feelings towards the new

National Stadium, and we deeply appreciate the honor of

receiving the order for its construction work. For the next

three years, we will make the most of the benefit of getting

involved in the project from the design phase and

endeavor to build a legacy that we can be proud of for

future generations.

Towards Moving on to the Final Stage of the Medium-term Business Plan (2015-2017)

With strong confidence regarding “Deep Cultivation of the Construction Industry, Our Core Business,” the Taisei Group will strive to achieve growth in the “energy” and “overseas business” areas, in addition to the five target fields.

The Taisei Group will contribute to the sustainable development of society by resolving social challenges and build its own strengths to advance to the next stage.

Aims

●To obtain high customer satisfaction by ensuring quality and safety

●To achieve stable and sustainable growth

●To promote conversion to a business structure for creation of higher added value

●To obtain high trust and evaluation from all stakeholders

Management Tasks

❶ Strategic initiatives for target projects❷ Active contribution to enhancement of social

infrastructure❸ Promotion of next generation technological

development❹ Establishment of next generation business

models for target fields❺ Strengthen domestic construction business❻ Construct the basis for healthy growth of

overseas projects❼ Increase the Group strength❽ Evolution of management infrastructure

Deep Cultivation of the Construction Industry, Our Core Business

Interview with the President

Yoshiyuki MurataPresident and Chief Executive Officer, Representative Director

What does the Group aim to achieve by its basic policy of “Deep Cultivation of the Construction Industry, Our Core Business”?No matter how the world changes, including changes in

demographic structure, the Taisei Group believes that

becoming a company that is trusted by clients and chosen

for our primary business is a prerequisite for achieving

sustainable growth. To this end, there are two points on

which deep cultivation is necessary. Firstly, we need to

solidly deal with challenges for which there is much work

to do towards resolving them based on the experience and

results we have earned. For instance, we will make greater

efforts to improve our technological capabilities, increase

productivity by utilizing ICT, and implement work-style

reforms. Secondly, we will cultivate our primary business

more deeply for the future. Specifically, we will seek to

build a high value-added business structure by deepening

exchanges with companies in the construction industry, as

well as in other industries, both in Japan and abroad.

What are the achievements in the five target fields?Of the five target fields, we received steady orders for

seismic resistance, etc., in the renewal and replacement

field. In the nuclear power field, we won safety measure

work orders for the decommissioning and restart of

nuclear power plants. In the environment field, we set up

the ZEB Demonstration Building within the Taisei

Technology Center, and our trailblazing effort led to winning

orders for new ZEB-seeking buildings. In the engineering

field, our efforts have yielded results in winning orders in

the pharmaceuticals and food production facility area,

backed by a wealth of achievements. In the urban

development field, orders are increasing steadily in central

Tokyo, as well as in regional cities such as winning orders

for large-scale urban redevelopment projects in Sapporo

and Kumamoto. In addition to these five target fields, the

Taisei Group will strive to achieve growth by focusing on

energy, which still poses serious social challenges, and the

overseas business related to infrastructure export.

What are short-term risks faced by the Group and their countermeasures?Considering that a labor shortage is expected to occur

from 2018 to 2019 due to a jump in business in the run-up

to the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games, we are

developing a thoroughgoing production system as our

focused challenge for the current fiscal year. In recent

years, we have been implementing human resources

management, such as strengthening recruitment, including

mid-career employment and transferring employees from

regional branches to our offices and branches in the Tokyo

metropolitan area. However, these measures are not

sufficient to address the looming labor shortage. Therefore,

the Taisei Group intends to ride out the extremely busy

period by implementing measures to improve productivity,

such as strengthening work-site capabilities, utilizing ICT,

and work-style reforms. During busy times, we need to be

more cautious about the risk of quality problems and take

measures to prevent them. Since any error may lead to an

incident that would have a major impact on society, we will

steadily implement a quality management process.

How do you see the outlook for the domestic market after the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games?There are projects for which order placement has been

postponed to avoid the current busy period, and we thus

anticipate that a certain level of construction demand will

continue for some time after the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and

Paralympic Games. Although the outlook for the subsequent

period is unclear, orders from the growth industry of the time

have kept the construction industry going.

The strength of the construction industry is that there is

always a growth industry in any given time, even if the

growth rate of the overall economy slows. Even so, since

competition for winning orders will intensify in a given

growth industry, the important thing for us is to earn higher

evaluation ratings from clients than other companies in the

industry, regardless of the order-taking environment.

With the increase in clients with limitations on

construction timeframes and costs in recent years, we

have been receiving an increasing number of orders for

one-stop solutions from design to construction. We believe

that the background behind this is a higher evaluation for

general contractors’ technological capabilities in the

project-planning phase, such as proposals for shortening

construction periods and reducing costs, in addition to

their construction capabilities. We see this as a very

significant change in the long history of the construction

industry, and we will work to build a competitive advantage

in the future market by steadily improving evaluations from

clients in design and construction projects.

Responses to ESG Challenges

The Taisei Group works group-wide towards implementing measures to strengthen corporate governance, easing busyness and promoting women’s active participation and advancement in the workplace. Agreeing with the concept of ESG investment, the Taisei Group proactively discloses non-financial information.

■ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

SDGs are global goals set in the United Nations’ “The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”

17 GOALS TO TRANSFORM OUR WORLD

*Empowerment Grand Prize: Prize awarded to an organization taking unique and ingenious initiatives aimed to promote women’s active participation in the workplace and improve productivity.

SDGs are new goals defined and adopted by the United Nations in 2015 by building on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) that expired at the end of 2015. SDGs, comprising 17 goals and 169 targets to be achieved by 2030 to build a truly sustainable world, require active involvement by countries as well as corporations.

Why does Taisei disclose the ESG information?ESG investment, which takes into account information

related to the environment (E), social issues (S), and

corporate governance (G), is growing rapidly. It is obvious

that companies with appropriate policies and initiatives for

social responsibility and higher levels of corporate

governance functions will achieve medium- and long-term

growth. Taisei Corporation will proactively disclose ESG

information, in addition to financial information, through the

TAISEI ANNUAL REPORT.

As for our ESG initiatives, we place priority on

strengthening corporate governance. As a company

engaged in the development of safe and secure

infrastructure, we must prevent at all costs any incident

that would lead to the loss of public trust.

To this end, we discuss measures to strengthen

company-wide risk management at the Board of Directors

meetings, and conduct active exchange of opinions with

Audit & Supervisory Board members and audit corporation.

With respect to appropriate implementation of

compliance, we consider it important to persistently

communicate the necessity to each employee to ensure

compliance clear of improper accounting, etc.

What are measures implemented to ease employee busyness at construction sites?We have figured that the high busyness level of employees

working at construction sites is attributable to inefficiency

in operations of those sites. We will review matters to

determine if there is any inefficiency in the conventional

approach to work, and will push through work-style

reforms with the “courage to change.”

In addition to improving efficiency in construction work

as mentioned above, by taking this opportunity, we are

focusing on productivity improvements by utilizing ICT,

such as the introduction of Office365, a tool for improving

information and operational efficiency, in the entire Group,

to improve the working environment.

How is progress on the promotion of women’s active participation and its results?In 2015, Taisei Corporation was honored with the second

Empowerment Grand Prize* in recognition of its efforts to

proactively expand the job categories of female employees,

which led to a significant increase in the number of female

employees working at construction sites and as sales

persons. In recent years, Taisei Corporation has been

supporting women’s active participation and advancement

in the workplace by taking various approaches involving

male employees as well, such as promoting childcare

support for male employees by providing a five-day paid

childcare leave towards achieving a 100% rate of childcare

leave for men, and holding seminars for male superiors

who play a significant role in female employees’ skill

development.

Of the skilled construction engineers working in the

construction industry, the percentage of female engineers is

still only about 1%. If more female employees of general

contractors work at construction sites, it will encourage the

hiring of skilled female workers at cooperating companies.

Taisei Corporation will thus promote the creation of a pleasant

working environment for both male and female employees.

Taisei’s Initiatives for the UN’s SDGs to Be Achieved by 2030

Taisei Corporation has set out “TAISEI i-Innovation” to promote productivity improvement. As a pioneer in ZEB buildings, we will embark on the development of next generation energy-saving technology.

■ ZEB (Net Zero Energy Building)

As the definition of ZEB for its quantitative judgment criteria released by the ANRE on December 17, 2015, the agency specified the following ZEB levels.

New Definition of ZEB Taisei Corporation’s Road Map for ZEB Penetration with Government’s Target

Building achieving an energy consumption reduction of 75% or more

Building achieving an energy consumption reduction of 100% or more

Building achieving an energy consumption reduction of 50% or more

*1 BIM: Building Information Modeling. It is a process of building three-dimensional computer models of buildings and utilizing the information obtained from model creation in the entire lifecycle process of buildings, including designing, construction and maintenance.

*2 CIM: Construction Information Modeling is designed to boost the efficiency of a series of construction production systems by introducing three-dimensional models from the investigation and design phases and interfacing them with three-dimensional models in each phase of construction and maintenance.

How is Taisei Corporation going to contribute to SDGs as a construction company?One major goal to which the Taisei Group can possibly make

a significant contribution is “Build resilient infrastructure,”

which is one of the 17 goals of the SDGs. Specific measures

are “promotion of greater national resilience,” “recovery from

the Great East Japan Earthquake,” and “promotion of

i-Construction.”

Taisei Corporation has regarded the development of safe

and highly reliable infrastructure, working on the recovery of

disaster-hit areas, and building a disaster-resilient nation as its

social responsibilities in the construction industry, and has

worked group-wide towards resolving these social

challenges.

Regarding the “promotion of i-Construction,” the

government’s Council on Investments for the Future held in

September 2016 set out a goal of achieving a 20 percent

increase in construction site productivity by 2025. In order

to meet that goal, Taisei collectively termed the initiatives

for productivity improvement and technological innovation

as “TAISEI i-Innovation” and has started deploying it

throughout the Group from April 2017.

We are working to improve productivity by promoting

TAISEI i-Innovation both from the aspects of hardware,

which generates results immediately, and software, ranging

from promotion of the utilization of BIM*1 and CIM*2 to the

cutting-edge technological innovation.

In this manner, Taisei Corporation intends to contribute

to increasing the momentum for the achievement of

SDGs, which are universal guidelines for building a

sustainable society.

What are your recognition and initiatives for environmental challenges?Taisei Corporation takes seriously the fact that it is exerting

various effects on the global environment, such as

consumption of resources and energy, while conducting its

primary construction business.

We will thus contribute to forming a sustainable society

by working to reduce the environmental impact, which is

inevitably generated during the course of business

activities, as much as possible, and by reducing the

environmental impact of buildings after delivery, and

regeneration of the natural environment.

To this end, Taisei Corporation has focused efforts on

developing environmental technology, including energy-

saving technology and ecosystem conservation

technology. As for energy-saving technology, in particular,

Taisei Corporation built the ZEB Demonstration Building

within its facility ahead of other companies in the industry,

successfully demonstrating the achievement of zero annual

primary energy balance. In the course of performing the

zero energy balance demonstration, we also developed

the T-ZEB Simulator, a tool that can calculate the cost in a

short time by optimally combining element technologies.

As a pioneer in ZEB buildings, we will promote the

penetration of market-oriented ZEB.

Taisei Corporation will work on the development of

technologies, centering on energy-related technologies, with

the intention of contributing to society through ZEB, as well as

technologies in the energy field. For instance, in addition to

the development of fuel cells, we will pursue the development

of CO2 containment technology to reduce the environmental

impact, and radioactive waste disposal technology.TA

To Our Stakeholders

Manufacturing of grand architectural structures is the result of the accumulation of good day-to-day work processes. Taisei Corporation will further contribute to the building of a sustainable society by leveraging its unique strengths.

Occurrence of Violation of Anti-Monopoly Act by TAISEI ROTEC CORPORATION Taisei Corporation had always guided its group companies under

the policy of never violating the Anti-Monopoly Act. Unfortunately,

however, violation of the Act occurred at TAISEI ROTEC

CORPORATION, a major group company of Taisei Corporation.

Taking the incident sincerely and seriously, Taisei Corporation will

further ensure compliance in the entire Group, including TAISEI

ROTEC, and will strive to prevent similar misdeeds and recover

public trust as soon as possible.

What do you attach importance to in promoting businesses?I take pride that we at Taisei Corporation are engaged in

great work that excites each employee in their day-to-day

work process towards manufacturing grand architectural

structures that will remain on the map, and be etched in

employee’s lives. The Taisei Group Philosophy of “To

Create a Vibrant Environment for All Members of Society”

is our statement on the ideals of a construction company

from the perspective of the relationship with society.

Although it was in 1990 that Taisei Corporation put this

philosophy into words, we valued the idea behind this

philosophy since long before that time. We will continue

our relentless effort to pass it on to our future generations.

Taisei Spirit of “Active and Transparent Culture,” “Value

Creation,” and “Evolution of Tradition”, which crystallize the

Company’s common values based on the Group

philosophy, are also enduring assets which Taisei

Corporation will continue to value. Taisei Corporation has

been known to have an “active and transparent culture.” It

has a nice ring to it, but we need to work to create an

environment that fosters the exchange of opinions among

employees, to ensure that it will not end up being merely a

pie in the sky idea.

Lastly, may I have your message to stakeholders?Taisei Corporation has achieved growth by winning the

trust of various stakeholders including clients and

shareholders. I have long experience in carrying out

construction management at construction sites, and I still

vividly remember things from those days, such as the

sense of fulfillment I felt when we managed to pull off a

difficult process, and the excitement of seeing clients’

happy faces after successful completion of a challenging

construction work project.

I firmly believe that a company can become a trusted

company only if it fulfills social responsibilities, in addition

to pursuing profit.

Based on the knowledge obtained through the

dialogue with stakeholders, Taisei Corporation will

contribute to resolving social challenges both in Japan and

abroad through technology to bring the Company to the

next stage. Also, we will provide new value to stakeholders

by taking advantage of our unique strengths cultivated

over the course of the Company’s history.

Proactively Contributing to the Improvement of Information Transmission Capability for Stakeholders

Providing Highly Practicable Supervision and Advice from the Viewpoint of All Stakeholders to Contribute to Taisei Corporation’s Sustainable Value CreationDuties of external Board Members are to provide highly practicable supervision

and advice to management and executive officers from an independent

standpoint, as well as appropriately evaluating business results.

In the past few years, Taisei Corporation has conducted active discussion

on objectives to be pursued, such as improvements to profitability and financial

position, and improvements to shareholder returns and annual employee

compensation, and the Company has effectively delivered results in each of

these objectives.

In the meantime, there are signs that the business environment surrounding

corporations is likely to change drastically in various industries both in Japan

and abroad. It suggests the importance of constant study on medium- and

long-term strategy, and of the capability to respond to more detailed and

sincere corporate governance codes, and I believe these factors will determine

the fate of corporations.

With a full awareness of the difficulty of these matters and the huge

responsibilities of external Board Members, I faithfully perform duties from the

standpoint of all stakeholders with a strong sense of commitment to helping

Taisei Corporation’s sustainable Value Creation.

We might call last year the “First Year of ESG Investment,” with the rapid growth

in the balance of ESG investment. Among the ESG investment criteria,

expectations from capital markets and various stakeholders have been increasing

year after year for the roles of external Board Members, who play a part in

corporate governance of a company, which has given me a renewed

determination to work hard to fulfill my duties and responsibilities.

In my opinion, the essence of corporate governance is information disclosure.

That is to say, a company has established its corporate governance only after it

has not only created rules and implemented initiatives for corporate governance,

but also disclosed the information and made commitments related to it.

Since the formulation of the Corporate Governance Basic Policy in 2015,

I have attended Taisei Corporation’s Board of Directors meetings, and have

come to evaluate that the Company appropriately implements the policy. Going

forward, I expect that the Company will skillfully communicate its initiatives and

results externally.

General contractors, as well as integrated trading companies, where I have

spent most of my career, are regarded to have unclear management structures

from the viewpoint of outsiders, including overseas investors. I will thus utilize my

past experience and proactively contribute to Taisei Corporation’s improvement of

information transmission capability.

In the Civil Engineering Division, we have been making efforts towards challenges specified as: 1) production capacity expansion; 2) profitability enhancement; and 3) overseas business earnings stabilization. To expand production capacity, it is essential to secure and develop diverse human resources and allocate the right people in the right places. We seek to raise productivity by utilizing ICT equipment in CIM [cf. Column on the right-hand page], and introducing energy-saving and automation technologies. In addition, the Company has implemented specific measures aimed at reducing total working hours in an effort to achieve work-style reforms. While discussions have been underway within the government on the upper limit of overtime work, the construction industry has launched new initiatives designed to improve productivity and reform work styles. We work to boost productivity by distinguishing between things that should be changed and things that should not. In an effort to enhance our profitability, we bolster our procurement capabilities by maximally leveraging the Company’s size and devise price-competitive work implementation plans by deploying our technological capabilities. With regard to overseas business earnings stabilization, we established the International Project Management Dept., which implements thorough earnings management to stabilize earnings, in January 2017. We will continue to engage in order acquisition activities with a focus on regions and fields where our strengths can be leveraged, as well as focusing on human resource development with an eye on the future. Through the endeavors discussed above, we aim to become number one in more respects and achieve higher recognition and presence in the market.

The domestic market has continued to enjoy a boom, and Taisei Corporation has steadily been acquiring work orders, mainly for large projects such as the Linear Chuo Shinkansen Southern Alps Tunnel, facilities related to the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and the Tokyo Gaikan Expressway. In addition, the Company is actively participating in electrical power-related work, such as restarts of nuclear power plants and thermal power plant projects, and national-level projects including post-earthquake reconstruction work. Overseas, the Japanese government is expanding major infrastructure export projects, and the Company will promote expansion of our overseas business to exploit these opportunities.

We developed a unique construction information modeling (CIM) system, enabling centralized management of all construction workImproving construction site productivity and taking measures to overcome workforce shortages are our most pressing issues, and we have achieved improvements in productivity, quality, and safety through the application of ICT and robotics. The Company developed T-CIM®, a unique construction information modeling (CIM*) system that integrates the construction system using information and communication technologies with three-dimensional models for use at our civil engineering work sites. We have introduced T-CIM® at several civil engineering work sites for earthmoving work and construction of dams and bridges from the current fiscal year, enabling us to implement centralized management of all construction work information.

The Building Construction Division will work on four priority challenges: 1) strengthening of our production system; 2) enhancement of profitability; 3) complete elimination of accidental deaths and serious quality defects; and 4) stabilization of profitability in our overseas business. In particular, we are placing the utmost priority on the strengthening of our production system in the run-up to the peak period of construction work starting from the second half of the current fiscal year. We established the Productivity Promotion Dept. [cf. Column on the right-hand page] from the current fiscal year to make a company-wide effort to enhance productivity improvement technologies to expand production capacity, work on smooth starts and progress project management through front loading of projects, and promote strengthening the collaboration with Souyu-kai (organization set up for key suppliers). To achieve profitability enhancement, we will work to further improve procurement capabilities and production capacity, and promote the development of price-competitive work implementation plans. With regard to the complete elimination of accidental deaths and serious quality defects, we will work to eliminate accidental deaths by enhancing employees’ ability to identify danger and actively watching out for each other. In addition, we will steadily implement our quality management process so as never to cause serious quality defects. To achieve the stabilization of profitability in overseas business, we established the International Projects Management Dept. in January 2017. We strive to generate stable business earnings by conducting risk assessment of project prior to acceptance, thoroughly implementing profit management by using a new performance indicator, and ensuring implementation of process management at construction sites. In addition, we will enhance organizational strength and promote operational improvement and reform of our overseas business to develop the structure for healthy growth with a view to the post-Olympic period. We will work on the above-mentioned priority challenges and promote the development of next-generation technologies (planning technologies, work implementation technologies) going forward. In addition, we will proactively work towards reducing total work hours, which is one of the measures for work–style reforms, and promote the provision of guidance for encouraging enrollment in social insurance programs, for which the Company started strict implementation in April 2017. Taisei Corporation will further step up collaboration with group companies to enhance the total strength of the Taisei Group. Through this, the Company will build a production system to be passed on to the next generation and aim to become the number one player in the industry.

Construction work for national-level projects, large-scale redevelopment projects, and construction of accommodation facilities for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games are steadily underway, and our work order acquisition environment is projected to be favorable going forward. With the sharp rise in construction work volume that will occur mainly in Tokyo from the current fiscal year to the fiscal year 2019, our urgent task will be to strengthen our production system. With a view to the necessity of addressing the social issue of ensuring a stable power supply, we established the Power Plant Construction Planning Dept. from the current fiscal year, and will contribute proactively to the improvement of social infrastructure.

Newly established Productivity Promotion Dept. to address the urgent task of strengthening the production systemTaisei Corporation established the Productivity Promotion Dept. in the Architecture & Engineering Division (Integrated) with the aim of introducing a new production method and improving the productivity and working environment. In the Productivity Promotion Dept., we will work to further promote the introduction of ICT to construction sites, and reform production processes by developing production technologies that will enhance productivity through collaboration with other departments.

In central Tokyo, the boom in large development projects is continuing on the back of the nation’s infrastructure development for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games, as well as the Japanese government’s growth strategy involving the National Strategic Special Zones, among others. In the Urban Development Division, while tackling various challenges, we provide strong support for customers’ development plans and serve as developer to implement development projects.

Following the (tentative name) Vinata Towers Project [(Image) 6 on the right-hand page], Taisei Corporation is proactively working to enlarge our development areas in Southeast Asia to achieve continuous growth into the future. In addition, the Company will take on the challenge of new business fields such as area management [cf. Column on the right-hand page] and concessions*. Furthermore, the Company will take the initiative in the Group’s housing business, such as conducting contracted activities to promote fireproofing for areas with densely built timber housing, and respond to the requests of our customers and the needs of society by accumulating and utilizing yet higher levels of development skill.

Undertaking Activities from Research and Development to Demonstration by Promoting the Expansion of FacilitiesOriginally created as the Technology Research Department in 1958, Taisei Technology Center has broadened the scope of its research in response to the needs of the times, and developed a number of ground breaking new technologies and construction methods primarily in the building construction and civil engineering businesses. Under the current facilities expansion plan, implemented in 2012, the Center has installed the Urban Net Zero Energy Building (ZEB) Demonstration Building, tsunami wave making systems, large seismic testers and the like, which now enable us to evaluate the performance of newly developed technologies. We will pursue the faster establishment of more Taisei Technology Center (Yokohama City, Kanagawa)

innovative new technologies through verification under various conditions, as well as distribute and offer a vision of future construction that is led by technological innovation to a broader spectrum of society through demonstrations and experiments. Among other things, toward the achievement of “Urban-Style ZEB®,” which is expected to contribute greatly to global warming prevention and energy solutions, we adopt cutting-edge lighting and air conditioning systems at the ZEB Demonstration Building within the Taisei Technology Center to advocate enhanced office worker comfort and a next-generation office for intellectual productivity improvements. The building has gained much attention since its completion, receiving more than 10,000 visitors domestically and internationally, including the then-Minister of the Environment Yoshio Mochizuki, and the Governor of Kanagawa Prefecture Yuji Kuroiwa. We currently conduct research in the fields of materials, structure, disaster resistance/prevention, environment, energy, ground, hydraulic engineering, biology and soil, and development in the field of advanced technologies such as automation, robot utilization and analysis technologies, as well as in the field of production technologies such as ICT/IoT/AI-based and BIM/CIM-based technologies.

Creating New Value by Mobilizing Wisdom Inside and Outside the CompanyTo further accelerate an initiative to create value for the future, we are committed to open innovation activities. A team exclusively in charge of open innovation activities, formed in 2016 within the Taisei Technology Center, is now running its operations in full swing. Particularly in an effort to enhance quality, quantity, and speed in technology development, the team promotes business matching in which our needs are disclosed to the public in an extensive search of prospective alliance partners, and holds lecture meetings with outside experts with the objective of changing mentalities and sharing information inside the company. A website has been set up to gain more exposure to prospective alliance partners and to strengthen and expand Co-Creation networks. By combining the resources of all executives and employees (human resources/connections, information, technologies, values, ideas, agenda

Contributing to Productivity Improvements through Innovative Technologies Energy-saving and labor-saving construction could be considered one of the important challenges ahead in the construction business. Construction demand has shown the highest growth in recent years as a result of national-level projects such as restoration activities in disaster-hit areas, the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games and national resilience, as well as the Linear Chuo Shinkansen project, which makes a labor shortage in the construction industry a serious issue at the moment. We therefore are proactively developing energy-saving and labor-saving technologies that contribute to more efficient construction. “T-Mark. Navi®” is a marking survey navigation system that achieves more efficient and labor-saving survey work. Based on a combination of an eyeglass-based wearable device and a dedicated surveying device, “T-Mark. Navi®” allows the user to perform surveys unaided in 40 minutes, which previously took a pair of workers an hour. “T-CIM®” is an independently developed CIM system for construction information integration, which integrates an

awareness, etc.) with those of the outside, the team operates so that we can bring a new relationship with the outside, learn new values, perspectives, and methodologies, import new ideas and flexibility, and cultivate an environment that creates sustainable innovation. In anticipation of moving one step beyond by considering how the construction industry will change and how it should be, the Taisei Technology Center will proactively work on advanced technology development in the new construction industry toward the realization of “TAISEI i-Innovation” that promotes productivity improvements in the entire construction production system using ICT, IoT, and AI technologies.

ICT-driven information-based construction system and a three-dimensional structure model on computer, centralizes various construction information, and organizes construction records automatically. In addition to the above, in automation and robot utilization technologies, an autonomous control-type unmanned construction system, “T-iROBO Series,” which can make its own decisions and work using multiple sensors equipped on the construction machine, has been developed to apply at construction work sites.

■ New Experiment Facilities Introduced under Taisei Technology Center Facilities Expansion Plan■Application of Large Fuel Cells to Smart Communities

In 2017 we will start demonstrations and experiments to apply electricity and heat, which are generated from large solid oxide fuel cells placed in the Taisei Technology Center, as energy for smart communities for the first time in Japan.

In January 2017 we launched “wind noise simulator” (Left) and “floor impact sound experiment facilities” (Right) operations to evaluate wind noise and the effect of countermeasures for floor impact sound for the first time in the industry.

Contributing to Achieving a Sustainable Society as a Pioneer in Providing Environmental Solutions

Taking on Various Social Challenges Based on an “Environmental” ApproachIn 1997 Taisei Corporation set up a department to deal exclusively with environmental matters before any other peer companies. Founded in 2009, the current Environment Division has two functions: “To respond to societal demand” and “to promote environmental management”, not only from within the boundaries of civil engineering and building construction, rather from an environmental perspective. In an effort to achieve a low carbon society as part of the function “to respond to societal demand,” we pursue the “penetration of market-oriented ZEB” based on the performance record of ZEB Demonstration Building, which became Japan’s first-ever single building to achieve zero annual energy consumption. With large next-generation fuel cells installed at the Taisei Technology Center to accommodate energies between multiple buildings, we are also working toward the achievement of a smart community that would reduce carbon emissions for an entire area, envisioned to be the size of a city block, in our technology development and sales activities. Furthermore, the “T-Root® Construction Method,” which was developed for soft ground, is employed in construction of large solar power plants in tsunami-hit areas in the Tohoku Region in Japan. In the biodiversity conservation field, we are committed to developing “Ikimono (living creatures) Concierge®” (see p.71), which has received acclaim from many of our external parties, including receiving the Good Design Award, as well as a new plant selection tool, “Mori (forest) ConciergeTM.” In the field of contamination countermeasures for soil and ground water to achieve a recycling society, a technology to visualize contamination status in 3D has been developed in preparation for i-Construction. We are also actively involved in national projects such as decontamination work, interim

In respect of the function “to promote environmental management,” we were accredited by CDP, an international NPO, in its evaluation of CO2 emissions reduction initiatives as an A-lister, or the top level among 500 Japanese companies. We believe our efforts across the supply chain involving group companies and the disclosure of highly reliable environmental data with third-party endorsement have been well received. Climate change could have a serious impact on the ecosystem and human society over the years to come. Based on our belief that the greatest mission in our time is to leave a beautiful Earth for future generations, we have announced “TAISEI Green Target 2020/2050” (see p.68) as the medium- to long-term environmental targets. Toward achieving those targets, we will make every effort across the board.

Haruhiko Kono

Creating and Supporting a Sustainable Society; Providing for “What-Ifs” with Constantly Forward-Looking Design Technologies

Providing Maximum “Safety and Security” for the World in All AgesThe Design / Construction Administration Division was created in 1925. Its catalyst was the 1923 Great Kanto Earthquake, based on the idea that as a construction company we should design and construct in a consistent way to fulfill social responsibilities. The Division has since evolved side by side with the Company’s growth, and now has established a structure that satisfies increasingly complex and diversified societal needs, with highly professional teams of interior design, environmental design, urban planning, BIM promotion, etc. Earthquake response is one of our most important themes in Japan, the land of earthquakes. The Design Division has visited disaster sites at times of major earthquakes to check damage, assess building availability, and plan recovery measures. Based on such experience, we have developed our aseismic / damping / base isolation technologies, for example, improving the earthquake resistance of nonstructural elements (ceilings etc.) and base isolation at semiconductor factories before any other peer companies, and deployed them in various projects in an effort to support customers’ business continuity from a technological standpoint. For instance, for the business continuity at an existing super high rise buildings in operation that meet earthquake resistance standards, we adopted “the T-RESPO construction method” at Shinjuku Center Building, and confirmed its effectiveness as a long-period ground motion countermeasure at the time of the Great East Japan Earthquake. For this method, we have developed the “T-S Oil Damper” (switching-type oil damper for base isolation) applicable to any building, whether it is new or existing, and offering earthquake countermeasure technologies according to customer needs. We also promote energy-saving designs to achieve ZEB. Starting from this year, in accordance with the suitability

assessment under the “Building Energy Saving Act,” buildings that fail to meet energy efficiency standards can no longer be constructed. The Buildings Energy-Efficiency Labelling System (BELS) is also gradually prevailing. With environment and energy awareness rising among customers, the Design Division will play an increasingly important role. In 2016 we registered the Construction Administration Department, specializing in construction administration, as an office of first-class architects, and boosted its independence and expertise in an effort to respond to the needs of the times and societal demand. We believe the designer’s mission is always to accept challenges presented by customers, discover the essence, and deliver optimal solutions. Being aware of this mission, each one of us aims to enhance our design capabilities and to become a creative and intelligent group that can unite as a team to demonstrate our capabilities.

■ ZEB Demonstration Building’s Annual Energy Balance

Urban-style ZEB’s characteristics include achieving single-building-based net zero balance of annual energy consumption in urban areas with many constraints, such as limited hours of sunlight. We have successfully saved significant amounts of energy by combining technologies and developing new technologies.

Contributing to Stable Power Supplies by Providing Greater Safety and Security at Nuclear Power Facilities

Removing Anxiety over Nuclear Power Plants Using Reliable Technologies, from Safety Assessments to Decommissioning WorkAfter the Great East Japan Earthquake, the principal business activities of the Nuclear Facilities Division, whose history has spanned a half century since its foundation in 1968, now include restart of nuclear power plants, decommissioning of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, and decontamination and interim storage related operations. Under the new regulatory requirements, which were carried out in 2013, a decision to decommission six more reactors in nuclear power plants around Japan was made and full-scale decommissioning operations began. Decommissioning operations are long-running business activities requiring nearly 30 years to complete, from the preparation phase including contamination status research to dismantling of buildings, etc. It is important for safety operations in decommissioning to reduce human exposure to radiation. In addition to this, technologies to research contamination status, to dismantle buildings safely, and to reduce, classify, and control radioactive waste are needed. We believe the use of ICT is also essential to perform these tasks. We will streamline remote control and volume reduction work, and control waste by using ICT in an effort to develop decommissioning technologies with greater safety and security. One of the critical challenges is countermeasures for contaminated water and soil generated from the Fukushima Nuclear Accident. Due to the massive volume, the government leads the promotion of recycling soil removed during decontamination work and of technology development for recycling and volume reduction. We are working on reducing levels of radioactive materials in decontaminated soil using an

An initiative toward improving the safety of nuclear power generation is needed more than anything else. According to the government’s basic energy plan, nuclear power is considered a key base load power and its 2030 target ratio is set at 20-22%, which indicates the necessity of the restart of nuclear power plants. We are therefore committed to safety assessments for restarts. We are also working on new safety assessment methods, as nuclear power plants need to be continuously assessed for improved safety after the restart. Furthermore, with new projects being planned for nuclear power facilities other than nuclear power plants, and new fast reactors, etc., we will actively participate in such projects from the planning stage, commit to their realization, and contribute to a stable power supply.

In Response to Changing Times, Increasing Added Value and Contributing to Sophistication of Industries

Achieving Optimal Features for Users in Both Hardware and SoftwareEngineering at a construction company is intended to add value by achieving various goals in the most appropriate form at facilities, or in businesses where people, materials, equipment, machinery, information, etc. are intermingled and compounded. To this end, it is necessary to consider buildings, resources, businesses, environment, impact on society, and other matters according to the needs of the times and incorporate them in a balanced manner. Our engineering field activities started in 1968. Initially, we primarily resolved customer problems regarding the optimal configuration of production equipment, material handling equipment, and about saving energy, based on building use units such as factories and logistics facilities. Subsequently, however, in a bid to make facilities the way they inherently should be, we ventured to deal with software issues, including appropriate facilities operations, and streamlining logistics systems inside and outside facilities. The engineering field has expanded in scope and now includes production facilities, logistics facilities, aquariums, energy and infrastructure facilities, hospitals, information systems, etc. Especially, in life science fields such as pharmaceuticals and food, we accommodate customer requests in all phases including the planning of production facilities, design and construction, production equipment, material handling equipment, and the planning of information systems. Customer problems and requests have become further diversified in recent years, thus incorporating business expansion, business continuity, energy saving, and environment consciousness into the requirements for facility construction and for commercialization has become important. We are contributing to the stable supply of high-quality, safe and secure goods by dealing with these diversified needs in the planning and proposal stages. As for business continuity

■ Constructing High-Quality Pharmaceutical Production Facilities

■ Our Efforts on Technology to Speed Up Supply Chain Recovery

Our record of over 40 years in constructing pharmaceutical production facilities is the best in the industry. We are working together with our customers to apply our experience and knowledge. Through appropriately automated production processes, we speed up production and save labor in an effort to achieve enhanced productivity.

Our automatic hi-rack vibration control device and seismic isolator can control the drop of goods and products following earthquakes so that shipment recovery will be expedited. We can calculate optimal configuration requirements using simulation analysis.

needs after an earthquake, for example, we offer a proposal from the planning stage to prevent the collapse of cargo in automatic high rised warehouses by combining various base isolation and vibration control technologies. To energy and labor saving needs, we grasp operations properly and propose from the planning stage to introduce a system of streamlining transport inside facilities. Regarding aging facilities, we review a number of options, including rebuilding, extension, repairs, and integration based on a diagnosis of the facilities, and provide economical consulting services for reconstructing in accordance with the latest sanitation codes. We are aware that the mission of the Engineering Division is to understand problems from the user’s point of view in an ever-evolving society, and find optimal solutions by integrating a number of relevant functions. We will continue to support the building of facilities and businesses with higher added value.

CSR Management

In order to secure the trust of society and at the same time to develop as a sustainable corporation, the Taisei Group regards swift, accurate, fair and transparent decision-making in management as the fundamental idea for corporate governance.

At the Taisei Group, we create a corporate climate with good communication and respect for basic human rights and diversity. We do not condone discrimination based on ethnicity, religious beliefs, gender, nationality, social position, disability, or sexual orientation. It is a matter of basic policy to respect cultures and customs and to comply with local laws at our overseas businesses.

The taisei Group is formulating Environmental Policies aimed at the formation of an environmentally friendly society. We will determine objectives and measures for taking action, strive for “preservation and creation of the environment” and promote “advanced environmental business.”

Taisei’s basic concept on our Health and Safety Policy is that all work-related accidents are preventable.

Safety must be our top priority as a member of the construction industry. To this end, we call for a safety first posture in the workplace, endeavoring to provide a safe, anxiety-free working environment.

Taisei Group recognizes corporate ethics and compliance as the fundamentals of our business operations. We not only make this clear in our Action Guidelines to Taisei personnel and the Taisei Group as a whole, but also engage in a variety of measures to encourage self-awareness of each and every executive and employee on this matter.

The Taisei Group aims to contribute to society as a whole and to develop sustainably as a corporate group.

For such purposes, we will continue to provide our customers and society as a whole with ensured quality in our products and services as well as such technologies as necessary for the resolution of social issues.

Taisei Group, as a good corporate citizen, will build sound relationships with local communities and promote dialog and harmony with society. We will also contribute to the development of society as a whole.

Looking ahead ten years from now, it would be expected that Taisei Corporation start working proactively on risks related to human rights risks in supply chain.

Promoting Corporate Governance that Exhibits the Good Relationship between Sustainability of Companies and Society

In the construction industry, where vast

numbers of skilled workers are

employed via many layers of

subcontractors, companies will be held

responsible for understanding the

actual working conditions of those

workers throughout their entire supply

chain, even at the subcontractor levels.

NPOs both in Japan and abroad are stepping up their oversight on

human rights issues to prepare for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and

Paralympic Games. Therefore, it is important that companies

demonstrate their understanding of these issues, and take steps to

address them. One of the first actions a company can take is to check

whether there are any human rights abuse cases or potential risks in

their supply chains, as these would attract negative international

attention. For example, the heavy use of migrant workers or foreign

intern programs would raise concerns about fair labor and wages.

Procuring wood products from overseas would also raise concerns

about illegal logging and land rights issues in developing nations.

Taisei Corporation’s human-centric philosophy of, “Putting my work

on the map”, is a driver for its employees’ engagement to make

concerted efforts in creating legacies together in Japan and overseas.

My suggestion would be that Taisei make the most of this philosophy,

and share this human-centric core value to expand business in a way

that advances a social mission all can take pride in.

Corporate governance efforts by

Japanese companies tend to be

focused on organizational

frameworks, such as Board of

Directors’ meetings and the general

meeting of shareholders. However, I

believe what is important is the

content of corporate governance and,

in particular, the content of the corporate governance policies.

With today’s rapidly changing society, there will possibly be

significant differences in thinking as to how a general contractor

should be run going forward, compared to that up to now.

In dramatically changing environments, companies need to have

policies and long-term goals that clearly show how they are going to

respond to changes in social situations and maintain sustainability.

In this respect, corporate governance demonstrates the good

relationship between corporate sustainability and society.

Corporate governance is also extremely important for companies

from the viewpoint of making a commitment to medium- and

long-term targets, and strategies and directions.

Taisei Corporation has established long-term targets for 2050 to

adapt to climate change. In addition to these, I expect the Company to

formulate broad long-term targets, including responses to climate

change, and contribute to the building of a sustainable society.

Expecting a Contribution to the Achievement of the UN’s Goal for “Building Resilient Infrastructure”

Making Contributions by Leveraging the Strengths and Technologies in the Environmental Field

In 2015, the United Nations adopted

the Paris Agreement and the

sustainable development goals

(SDGs) to be achieved by 2030,

providing the major directions and

course of action for human society.

SDGs have set 17 goals and 169

targets, and many of the challenges

are interrelated. “Build a resilient infrastructure”, one of the goals,

involves not only building of infrastructure but also a wide range

of challenges, such as poverty, climate change, and biodiversity.

Therefore, it is important to contribute to the achievement of goals

by taking a comprehensive view of two or more goals. For areas

that often experience abnormal weather conditions due to climate

change, for instance, disaster-prevention measures and regional

community support will also be important tasks. SDGs have set a

slogan: “Leave no one behind.” I expect Taisei Corporation to work

to contribute to the achievement of SDGs with an eye on

“transforming the world,” a common idea underlying SDG’s 17 goals.

Following the introduction of the

Stewardship Code, ESG investment

has been increasing rapidly. As a

result, investors, such as pension

funds and asset managers, are more

actively engaged in dialogue with

companies than before. Of the

environmental (E), social (S) and

governance (G) criteria, I think the urgent task for Taisei Corporation,

operating in the construction industry, is to address environmental

issues.

In conducting dialogue with investors, companies need to

proactively disclose what kind of value they can deliver to society,

and with what kind of technologies. Technologies for preserving

natural capital, in particular, lead to earning high marks from

investors. Preserving forests, securing water, and building

infrastructure resistant to extreme weather conditions, such as

floods caused by climate change, are becoming increasingly

important challenges with a view to the global environment going

forward, and it is expected that there will be increasing cases where

Taisei Corporation, with its many environment-related technologies,

will need to play active roles. I expect that Taisei will formulate

long-term targets and lead the way in the industry in efforts to solve

social challenges including environmental issues through the

construction business and build a sustainable society.

Taisei Corporation (the “Company”) has established this Fundamental Corporate Governance Policy*1 in order to achieve sustainable development and improvement in the mid- to long-term value of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, the “Taisei Group”) in accordance with the philosophy of the Taisei Group, being "to create a vibrant environment for all members of society" (the “Taisei Group Philosophy”) and the so-called “Taisei Spirit”, which embodies our commitment to “Active and Transparent Culture”, "Value Creation" and "Evolution of Tradition."

In line with the basic policy, the Taisei Corporation’s Board (including three External Members of the Board) gives its undivided attention to important management decisions and the supervision of corporate affairs. In addition, the Company has established several committees of the Board, and introduced a system of Executive Officers. In addition, the Audit & Supervisory Board (including four External Audit & Supervisory Board Members), operating independently of the Board and the operating divisions, works in close collaboration with the Accounting Auditors and Auditing Departments, the in-house Auditing Department, to implement independent and effective audits and to strengthen the auditing system across the whole Group.

At Taisei Corporation, the Board has established a “Basic Policy for Development of a System for Ensuring Appropriate Business Operations”*2 to ensure the credibility of financial reporting and systems for conducting operations in an appropriate and efficient manner as a Group. Through these systems, we will deliver improved risk management and compliance.

The Company implemented a range of measures in FY2016, such as organizing two training sessions led by a lawyer on the topic of “Responsibilities and Roles of Executive Officers.”

Corporate Governance and Internal Controls

To spread and consolidate the Group Philosophy while connecting it to social demands and in-house initiatives, we have operated annual e-learning courses about the Group Philosophy since FY2011. In FY2016, after reconfirming the significance and composition of the Group Philosophy, we conducted a training course on the theme of the relationship between improvements in corporate value required by ESG investment and the Group Philosophy.

Internal controls on financial reporting based on the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act are recognized as one of the most important issues for a corporation. We have set up the internal systems including daily monitoring to ensure the credibility of the financial reporting disclosed to the public.

The effectiveness of the system is evaluated by the Audit Department and audited by KPMG AZSA LLC. The results are disclosed in the Internal Control Report and in the Audit Report of Internal Controls. We will fulfill our social responsibility as a corporation by continuing to ensure the effectiveness of these internal controls.

In order to continue to operate the internal control systems relating to financial reporting in a sound manner, we are also publishing messages from the President, implementing e-learning, and other campaigns to raise awareness among officers and employees.

In FY2016, Taisei Corporation conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Board by means of self-evaluation by the Members of the Board and Audit & Supervisory Board Members, followed by deliberations by the Board with reference to an overall evaluation by the External Members of the Board and a third-party opinion from a lawyer.

The results of the evaluation indicated that the Board is functioning effectively overall, that proposals were accurately explained and deliberated, and that the comments of External Members of the Board and Audit & Supervisory Board Members were taken into account. A desire for discussion regarding the state of Group governance and medium- to long-term management strategy were among other opinions noted.

In light of this evaluation, the Company will work to further enhance the operations of the Board.

At Taisei Corporation, we have formulated a Risk Management Policy *1 and built systems to implement risk management across the whole company in order to respond to risk escalation following changes in the business environment.

In terms of handling risk management, we identify and select risks that influence business activities every year. Depending on their importance, we classify them into categories such as “important company-wide risk” or “risk within the jurisdiction of head office”. As well as preparing countermeasures, we also implement pragmatic risk management by clarifying supervisory roles and jurisdictions among the departments.

Specifically, information on incidents and accidents with the potential to have a serious impact on the management of the corporation is centralized at the CRO*2 Secretariat. We implement effective risk management across the whole company including measures to prevent any reoccurrence by sharing this information with the Risk Management Committee and the Risk Management Council.

Taisei Corporation has established the Policy on Business Continuity in Times of Disaster*3 to meet its responsibilities as a general construction company supporting the infrastructure for economic activities. We aim to become a company earning the trust of society by contributing to business continuity at central and local governments and corporations while maintaining our business functions in time of disaster.

The Company has recently enhanced bases to serve as backup locations in case head and branch offices are damaged in a disaster in order to further ensure solid base functions in time of disaster.

At head office, we strengthened our disaster response capabilities by enhancing our employee dormitory “Premier Hatsudai” and other facilities and setting them up as new backup locations for head office.

In addition, we update our Business Continuity Planning (BCP) annually in order to fulfill the duties noted above, including reinforcement of our crisis management system overseas in FY2015, and acquiring new certifications related to the BCP (Certification of Organizations Contributing to National Resilience).

Thanks to these efforts, we were able to swiftly respond to requests for reconstruction and supplies from our business partners during the Kumamoto Earthquake that occurred in April 2016.

Stakeholder Dialog and Information Disclosure

To deliver sustainable development and to earn the trust of society as a corporation, it is vital to make timely and accurate disclosures to stakeholders concerning important information about corporate activities. Taisei Corporation established the Information Disclosure Policy*1 and stated principles for ensuring appropriate information disclosure and transparency in the basic policies of corporate governance. These policies form the basis for our practice of timely and appropriate information disclosure.

In order to achieve sustainable growth and improve corporate value in the medium- to long-term, Taisei Corporation established the IR Policy*2 regarding structures and initiatives to promote constructive dialog and discussions with shareholders.

To make the dialog with shareholders and investors more constructive, the opinions and content of our discussions with stakeholders are fed back to the management ranks. We also carried out IR activities overseas for the first time last year.

We strive for fair information disclosure via our website where we publish explanatory material with commentary, summaries of the President’s speeches and the main question and answer sessions (Japanese and English) in addition to the Medium-term Business Plan and materials distributed at results briefings.

We also strive to promote constructive dialog through business report briefings by the President and question answer session at the annual general meeting of shareholders, the main venue for important dialog with shareholders.

In addition, we disclose information to overseas investors in English in our annual reports and on our English website.

In order to further deepen understanding of the corporate

The Group Action Guidelines for the Taisei Group state that in order to fulfill its social responsibilities, the Taisei Group shall adhere to laws and regulations, etc. (laws and ordinances, bylaw, administrative guidance, customs and other social rules, and various company rules and regulations).

The guidelines also state that the company must act in good faith and fulfill contracts and promises with customers, suppliers, or the local community in all sincerity. This is the basis of compliance for all officers and employees of the Taisei Group.

As indicated in the diagram below, each department at Taisei Corporation has deployed managers, promoters, and implementers to install the in-house compliance promotion system and to strengthen compliance based on the opinions and recommendations of the Compliance Committee.

In order to raise awareness of compliance, Taisei Corporation systematically implements education and training for all officers and employees, as well as specialized contractors.

We also endeavor to strengthen group compliance by organizing periodic conferences for staff who are responsible for legal affairs at the domestic Group companies as a system for information sharing and exchange of opinions regarding issues related to legal affairs.

At Taisei Corporation, we have set up the Corporate Ethics Helpline, a system for whistle-blowing and consultation where acts contravene laws and ordinances or the Group Action Guidelines. We have established consultation desks in-house and at an external organization (a law firm). Based on the Whistleblower Protection Act, all information about the whistleblower is treated as confidential and any adverse action as a direct result of any whistle-blowing is prohibited. Since April 2016, we are accepting anonymous tips in order to nip a wide range of illegal activities in the bud.

Taisei Corporation has adopted Promoting Partnerships with Supply Chains in its Group Action Guidelines, and stipulates that relationships of fairness and mutual trust be built with suppliers and that transactions be conducted on an equal footing.

Furthermore, we have set out Measures for Dealing with Anti-Social Forces and Organizations, stipulating that we will take a resolute stance against anti-social forces and will not comply with illegitimate demands. In order to eliminate anti-social forces, we have included a condition in our contracts, including the basic contract for specialized sub-contractors, declaring that the supplier is not an anti-social force and that if revealed otherwise, the contract may be cancelled without notice.

In order to ensure the legitimacy of bids, Taisei Corporation operates an in-house system whereby the heads of branch offices confirm, produce the documents, and keep all bids on file. Every year, the legal department verifies the legitimacy of bids and checks compliance with the Construction Business Act, Antimonopoly Act and the Subcontractors Protection Act. The results are reported to the in-house Auditing Department.

■ Initiatives to Ensure Fair Subcontracts and Eliminate Anti-Social Forces

■ Verification of Compliance with Laws and Regulations (Guidance)

In FY2016, we conducted 22 intellectual property courses for technical departments in head office and operational departments in branch offices, including the utilization of application rights and a series of awareness campaigns about infringement.

KPIs

Taisei Corporation has formulated an Intellectual Property Policy*, based on which we practice our Intellectual Property Strategy. We strategically manage and utilize all intellectual property including patents, copyright, construction and business know-how to promote management that is focused on intellectual property. Regarding management of intellectual property, we intend to improve operational efficiency through building a search function for our own patents and preparing a database for managing patents.

We have tightened the handling of classified information and we have established Rules for Handling Intellectual Property Information in order to prevent leaks of technical know-how or other confidential business information. We also take measures to reduce the risk of infringing the intellectual property rights of third parties, such as making technical departments and business departments thoroughly aware of other companies’ patent information.

Taisei Corporation has formulated policies and action guidelines in order to protect and make appropriate use of company information.

We have systematically built rules and regulations concerning company-wide information security systems and information management. We established Taisei-SIRT in order to strengthen the system for responding to security incidents* involving electronic information. We have been actively involved in the Nippon CSIRT Association since joining in March 2013.

KPIs

Under the slogan “ICT Safety First!,” Taisei Corporation implements a range of information security measures. Together with all Group companies, specialized constructors, and other partner companies, we aim for zero incidents related to information security.

We have been promoting a tighter information security environment at overseas business offices and construction sites since FY2016.

We have summarized the minimal rules to be followed in a pamphlet, and conducted education and instruction for all officers and employees as well as specialized constructors and other partner companies.

To manage information required by customers based on the Guidelines for Managing Customer Information, we set security levels according to the confidentiality level of each project, transmitting information to the relevant in-house departments, and implementing appropriate customer information management.

We aim to improve information security levels across the whole construction industry, not only Taisei Corporation, by providing partners and other companies in the same industry with free access to a personal computer security diagnostic website jointly developed with a security vendor.

Taisei Corporation adopted Promoting Partnerships with Supply Chains and formulated the Procurement Policy* as part of the Group Action Guidelines to promote CSR procurement activities with cooperating companies and across the whole supply chain.

We have established the CSR Procurement Committee composed of the Corporate Planning Department, the Corporate Communication Department, the Safety Administration Division, the Building Construction Division, the Civil Engineering Division, and the Procurement Division as the structure for promoting the concept of CSR in procurement activities.

As noted in stakeholder dialog, CSR procurement initiatives are growing in importance amid increasing social concerns in recent years about the risk of human rights violations in the supply chain.

In FY2016, we began creating a framework for voluntary CSR procurement activities by formulating procurement policies at major Group companies.

We also carried out briefings on the significance of CSR procurement for the first time in approximately three years for the Souyu-kai member companies, who are our main cooperating companies, and conducted a CSR activity survey. Internally, we carried out briefings for international branch offices and the Procurement Division as part of our awareness campaign on CSR procurement.

In addition to conducting CSR procurement briefings at over-seas construction sites, we will visit the Souyu-kai member companies that accept foreign technical intern trainees and confirm the actual conditions under which they are accepted. In this manner, we aim to improve the quality of the supply chain by carrying out targeted CSR procurement activities.

According to the CSR activity survey implemented in 2016, the implementation rate of CSR activities at cooperating companies based on the procurement guidelines established by Taisei Corporation was 62.6%.

The percentage of total survey items for which the response is “measures taken” is called the “implementation rate,” and we request all of our cooperating companies to continue to improve their implementation rate.

Taisei Corporation actively accepts foreign technical intern trainees, whom specialist contractors (cooperating companies) employ, at specified model sites. Especially for the Vietnamese technical intern trainees, we visit, inspect and evaluate the local sending organizations, and make recommendations to the specialist contractors together with the partner supervising groups. The purpose of this activity is to promote the overseas transfer of Japan’s construction technologies and to address and aid the issue of the shortage of skilled construction workers for specialist contractors.

Under the slogan of “ensuring and improving safety and quality” stated in the Group Action Guidelines, Taisei Group formulates the “Quality Policy,”* which governs our corporate activities. We obtained ISO 9001 certification in 1996 for the first time in the Japanese construction industry. We operate and establish a quality management system covering from design and construction to after handover in order to provide customers with construction products and after-sales service with safety and comfort. Additionally, in conjunction with the quality management system, “TAISEI QUALITY” activities have been implemented since 2009 to ensure thorough awareness and application of the quality management standards and procedures within the entire Group. We also conduct customer satisfaction interviews and surveys to ensure proper quality management and eliminate any defects caused by quality, in cooperation with the relevant departments.

To ensure higher quality and safety, and objective construction auditing in design and building projects, Taisei Corporation established the office of first-class architects which specializes in construction auditing operations. The office started its operations in FY2016 with 70 experts in design, structure and facilities who are dedicated to construction auditing under the basic policy that “customer satisfaction and trust shall be secured by providing ‘high-quality construction products and related services’ meeting the demands of customers and society.”

Taisei Corporation has been using the “Kensetsu Site” cloud service provided by Mitsubishi Corporation (currently MC Data Plus) since 2003 to manage and share plans and documents at branches and on-site offices with the aim of improving productivity at increasingly complex construction sites.

In 2012, we developed the “Field Pad,” an app for iPhones and iPads for the purpose of improving operations and enhancing quality control in construction management, leading to labor-saving in labeling and organizing photographic construction records.

Users of these apps include not only officers and employees at Taisei Corporation, but also employees of cooperating companies and others involved in construction. Currently, approximately 30,000 users take advantage of these apps to access the latest plans and information on documents regardless of time or place.

Under the basic policy of the Medium-term Business Plan (2015-2017), the Taisei Group implements technological development aimed at stable and sustainable growth, as well as obtaining high customer satisfaction by ensuring quality and safety.

In carrying out technological development, we actively promote alliances with various research university research organizations, companies in different industries, and other companies in the same industry, etc., in order to enhance investment efficiency in technological developments and to meet increasingly advanced and diverse technical needs.

We actively pursue the protection and utilization of intellectual property assets, such as inventions and brands associated with our research and development, based on our intellectual property strategy. Our rate of registration of patent applications is very high at 90%, compared to the actual rate of registration of 71.5% for all types of industry in 2015.

We contribute significantly to the dissemination of Japanese research and development activities overseas, including the publication of 21 papers overseas in FY2016.

We aim to contribute to society through the development of new technologies based on the unity of our business strategy, our research and development strategy, and our intellectual property strategy, through technological support for our construction sites, and through our utilization of intellectual assets, etc.

For the Benefit of Community and SocietyContributions to Local Communities

Taisei Corporation sets forth “communication with the local communities” under the Group Action Guidelines to establish a good relationship with the local communities and contribute to the development of the society as a good corporate citizen.

Taisei Corporation carries out various social contribution activities such as environmental beautification activities at the headquarters, the Technology Center and individual branches (including construction sites). At construction sites in particular, we implement a range of social contribution activities including environmental beautification activities, participating in and sponsoring local events, and holding visits to worksites. Through these social contribution activities, we hope to deepen understanding of the Company among local residents as well as to contribute to the development of the local community as one of its members.

The purpose of Galerie Taisei is to spread construction culture by exhibiting architecture and paintings by Le Corbusier, whose works have been inscribed on the World Heritage List. Two exhibits were held in 2016. (The gallery is currently closed due to relocation.)

For 24 years, we have granted subsidies of ¥15 million each year (for a total 532 grants) to projects conducive to the preservation of the natural environment and others that are the common property of present and future humanity.

We took part in the “Summer Riko-challe” organized by the Cabinet Office and others for junior and senior high school students during their summer vacation. We conducted activities such as site visits, design workshops, and exchange events with science and engineering professionals to communicate the significance of science and engineering studies and the appeal of science and engineering careers.

We established the Taisei Foundation in March 2017 in order to support the researchers who are realizing the Taisei Group Philosophy, “to create a vibrant environment for all members of society.” The Taisei Foundation will endeavor to play a role in improving Japan’s construction technologies by supporting new technological fields for the next generation (disaster prevention and mitigation technologies, ZEB technologies, compact city and smart community technologies, etc.). We have installed automatic vending machines with a donation

function at construction sites and other locations, and are donating part of the proceeds to the NPO Borneo Conservation Trust Japan. We support activities for the protection of Borneo elephants, which are in danger of extinction due to the reduction of Borneo’s tropical rainforest.

The Taisei Group has developed the Human Rights Policy*1 with reference to international human rights standards such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the eight fundamental conventions of the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the ISO 26000, as well as the International Code of Conducts to prohibit child labor, compulsory labor and discrimination in employment and occupation and guarantee the right of association and the right to bargain collectively.

In addition, the “Taisei Human Rights Awareness Promotion Committee” continually engages in efforts including the creation and review of basic policies and activity plans.

In FY2016, we provided e-learning training for all employees and training for employees according to their number of years on the job. In addition, some of the content was translated into English and Chinese and used as material for training conducted for local staff employed at overseas business sites.

As one of the issues addressed in the Medium-term Business Plan, we aim to encourage diversity management, focusing on creating a workplace in which employees are able to take the most active possible role, taking advantage of their diversity in terms of sex, nationality, disability, values, the way of working and career.

Taisei Corporation has established a whistle-blowing system (helpline) and consultation services in each department in the Company in order to prevent abuses of human rights and harassment from occurring. We respond appropriately to resolve problems by investigating the facts while giving consideration to the protection of whistle-blowers.

We worked to enhance the reemployment system for senior personnel with a wealth of knowledge, experience and skills to let them pass on their know-how to the next generation and continue to play an active role, and have reemployed 663 personnel in FY2016.

In addition, we have started a job return system in FY2008 to reemploy personnel who have resigned due to unavoidable circumstances such as childcare or nursing care so that they can return to the workplace, and have reemployed 24 employees to date.

Approximately 130 physically challenged employees work at Taisei Corporation (an employment rate of 2.04% in FY2016). These employees take an active role in various fields thanks to measures that consider individual disabilities, such as sign language interpretation, use of UDTalk*2, and the establishment of a consultation desk.

Workplace Environment at Construction SitesImproving Health and Safety Standards

The Company set a target of “achievement of zero fatal accidents” in 2016, but regretfully one fatal accident occurred. For 2017, we have again set a target of “zero fatal accidents,” and will promote various measures aimed at “shifting from recurrence-prevention safety management to preventive safety management.”

KPIs

Based on the ideal of “Safety First,” Taisei Corporation works hard to ensure safety in a tangible form day to day in concerted efforts among its employees, group companies and cooperating companies. We are committed to this under the “Health and Safety Policy,”* which the President indicates by systematizing and organizing the “Taisei Occupational Health and Safety Management System” (TAISEI OHSMS), to eliminate accidents and damage and prevent third-party accidents.

TAISEI OHSMS is established based on the safety and health management techniques and know-how which Taisei Corporation has accumulated over many years. Using this system as a platform, the PDCA (plan-do-check-act) cycle is properly implemented to improve health and safety standards.

In addition, we work to prevent accidents and damage by conducting risk assessment and taking necessary measures to reduce risk, based on the results of audits of the actions under the “Health and Safety Management Policy.” We also carry out thorough construction site patrols and safety education for construction workers in order to ensure health and safety management based on TAISEI OHSMS.

Taisei Corporation cooperates closely with the “Taisei Health, Safety, and Environment Cooperation Association,” which consists of cooperating companies all over Japan, to prevent accidents and damage. Members of the Association work to prevent accidents and damage by participating in the “Safety Conference (January)” and the “Safety Promotion Conference (June)” held by Taisei Corporation each year, and by using educational and instructional material for health and safety management such as the journal “Cooperation” and the “Collection of Accident Cases.”

In the civil engineering field, the system for rewards for excellent civil engineering skilled workers, under which a reward is paid to the workers with excellent construction skills who contribute to construction work at the sites of Taisei Corporation, is introduced to improve the overall capabilities, including quality, safety and skills.

In the building construction field, a system for the highest quality foremen was newly established and has been put into operation upon partial revision of the first-class foremen system during FY2015 to further improve the foremen’s construction management capability, including quality, skills and safety to strengthen the production system.

We are pursuing worksite-led activities in order to improve health and safety levels at the “(Tentative Name) Jingumae Plan” construction site in Harajuku, Tokyo, where we are constructing a high-rise building with 23 floors above ground and 3 basement floors.

The Foremen’s Council engages in various activities such as conducting safety patrols from various perspectives depending on the day of the week, promoting the “point-and-call” practice, which is an effective safety check, and practicing individual danger prediction activities at morning assemblies. In addition to constantly maintaining a sense of alertness on the site, we also create innovative ways to ensure that safety measures quickly become familiar without being simply rote, such as publishing the Jingumae Newspaper, a tabloid-type paper that enables all construction workers to share an understanding of the project status, and putting up manga-style posters. We further strengthen the sense of unity by creating plenty of opportunities for deeper, direct communication among construction workers, such as by holding occasional fireworks, sports festivals, barbecues, and cultural exchanges among construction workers of different nationalities.

Emphasizing Unity while Maintaining Alertness

The repetition of these processes fostered a culture where workers can freely speak their minds to each other. This produced a virtuous circle, whereby a higher level of awareness among all employees is reflected in improvement activities, such as when active communication leads workers to caution each other and prevent trouble before it occurs. In addition, the openness of the workplace boosts the morale of construction workers and facilitates smooth coordination among cooperating companies, thus promoting work efficiency as well as safety.

Fostering a Culture of Preventing Accidents and Damages before They Happen

Skilled construction workers are the leading figures at a construction worksite. What the site manager says does not have any effect unless it penetrates to each and every person working on site. Through activities led by the foremen, we can surely achieve zero accidents and zero damage if everyone thinks of this place as “their site” and considers fellow workers as “their family.” Creating that environment is an important job for the site manager.

⃝ Osamu Kubota, Construction Site Manager, (Tentative Name) Jingumae Plan Construction Site, Tokyo Branch

Health and Safety Initiatives at Construction Sites

Promoting Activities Led by ForemenSpecialized contractors (cooperating companies) are involved in work on construction sites in a wide range of fields until the building is completed. An average of about 40 foremen, who are the leaders from each cooperating company, along with some 400 skilled construction workers, enter this construction site each day. In order to preserve safety at a worksite where different companies are involved depending on the stage of work, and new skilled construction workers join the site each day, it is vital that everyone share an awareness of safety and engage in efforts collectively. We have therefore organized a Foremen’s Council that cross over company borders at this worksite, and formulated the council’s slogan, “Dedicated Wholeheartedly to Progress.” We are implementing initiatives under four sub-committees, namely environment, safety, vehicles, and publicity, in order to work as one to realize zero accidents and zero damage.

Taisei Corporation is continuously working to develop technologies to create a society with rich biodiversity. We are developing a wide range of proposals using those technologies, from planning and construction of facilities to support for operation and management after completion.

At Sapporo Dome, our technologies were adopted from the planning stage with the aim of creating an environment that can be used by diverse living creatures. In order to verify that they can actually inhabit the environment, long-term monitoring of living creatures has been implemented and demonstrated from the planning stage to the present day. The store of knowledge acquired in the process has been used in developments such as the biodiversity communication tool “Ikimono (living creatures) Concierge,” and is shared broadly with society through various environmental awareness plans and activities conducted by Sapporo Dome Co., Ltd.

Taisei Corporation cooperated and participated in the “2nd Expedition to Find the Living Creatures of Sapporo Dome - Let’s Observe the Birds and Insects that Live in the Dome” (organized by Sapporo Dome Co., Ltd.), a nature observation event for elementary school students and their parents held at Sapporo Dome on August 1, 2016.[Images 1 2 ]

After an explanation by Taisei Corporation employees about environmental measures taken during construction, participants wandered around the grounds of Sapporo Dome accompanied by biology specialists, looking for birds and insects and touching the natural surroundings with their own hands in this program implemented to teach the value of biodiversity. [Images 3 4 ]

The Taisei Group carries out initiatives for employees and their families to help them better understand the importance of the connection of the construction business and social life with the natural environment. We implement various environmental activities and education, including volunteer activities that have continued for more than 10 years, and support for NGOs working to protect small animals and forests.

Types Response measures (examples)

NoiseIn response to complaints about the noise of a compressor that was set up at a designated place outside the building in order to do chipping work inside a building, the location of the compressor was changed.

Traffic obstruction

In response to complaints about the location where dump trucks and other work vehicles waited in the vicinity of the site, the specialist contractor was directed not to have trucks on standby, and the site was checked regularly.

Vibrations

In response to complaints from the neighborhood about noise and vibration during blasting and digging of tunnels, a measuring device was set up and the measure-ments checked regularly to ensure that the noise was below the control values agreed upon in discussion with customers.

DustIn response to comments that the dust produced on the construction site was carried outside the site on the workers’ shoes, the number of mats where workers could wipe their feet was increased after cleaning up the dust.

Water pollution

In response to an incident in which water used to rinse paint was released into storm drains and polluted water flowed into a river, measures were taken to pre-vent recurrence, including thorough implementation of education and appropriate processing across the Company.

Proportion of Observation Items Portion of Complaint Types

At Taisei Corporation, Site Environmental Patrols are implemented by the environmental departments at head office and branches to survey compliance with environmental laws and regulations on construction sites throughout the Company. Corrective actions and preventative measures are taken in response to observations in order to achieve continuous improvement.

At construction sites, we provide our employees and subcontractors with environmental education based on the “Operation Manual for Prioritized Environmental Issues” to help them understand the importance of environmental management and prevent environment-related accidents, through measures such as sharing cases leading to environ-mental accidents, raising awareness of the proper manage-ment of harmful chemicals such as asbestos and PCBs, and thoroughly implementing appropriate management and processing of contaminated soil.

In FY2016, no accidents or legal violations related to the environment occurred.

Taisei Corporation takes the appropriate measures regarding complaints related to the environment reported to its construction sites, etc., and maintains records and reports using communication sheets based on the EMS procedures and communicates across the relevant departments and companywide when necessary.

We also strive to respond appropriately to opinions received from citizen groups and other organizations.

Proper Management of Construction WasteEnvironment Division

In order to ensure the proper processing of construction waste, Taisei Corporation has been promoting the use of the electronic manifest (waste transmittal form) in cooperation with outsourcing companies for waste processing, collection and transport companies, and waste disposal companies, and has worked to improve the rate of use. Since we have achieved our initial goal of increasing use, the electronic manifest has become a matter for everyday management starting in FY2017, but we are continuing our efforts to ensure proper management of waste, including digitalization of subcontracts for industrial waste processing and promotion of the electronic manifest within the Taisei Group.

Technologies and initiatives to reduce risks and solve issues concerning the environment are developed and deployed at various stages of the Taisei Group’s business activities, from planning and design to construction, operation, and demolition, and these contribute to reducing the impact on the global environment.

Environmental risks and issues influence each other and are profoundly interrelated in various fields such as low carbon, resource recycling, and co-existence with nature (biodiversity). For that reason, the development and deployment of environmentally friendly technologies in any one of these fields contributes to reducing the environmental impact in all, and Taisei Corporation has an important role to play as a socially responsible company involved in the formation of social capital.

Taisei Corporation has been implementing “CO2 Zero Action,” an initiative to reduce environmental impact in the construction stage, at all construction sites in Japan and at some construction sites overseas together with many companies in the supply chain. In addition, construction sites that carry out particularly advanced initiatives are selected as “Eco Model Projects,” and further CO2 reduction activities are implemented.

Starting with the construction of Japan’s first urban Net Zero Energy Building, the “ZEB Demonstration Building,” Taisei Corporation has worked to spread and expand ZEB as an industry top runner by realizing ZEB in customers’ buildings, among other measures.

We will continue our efforts to contribute to achieving Japan’s CO2 reduction targets by widely promoting the shift to ZEB in buildings of various purposes, including tenant buildings.

LTD., TAISEI HOUSING CORPORATION, SEIWA RENEWAL WORKS CO., LTD., and J-FAST Co., Ltd.), which are all within Japan only. Environmental data cover more than 90% of the sales made by the entire Taisei Group.

・ Calculation standard: Calculated based on in-house standards and the Taisei Group’s environmental data calculation manual for the management of environmental information, complying with the Act on the Rational Use of Energy, the Act on Promotion of Global Warming Measures, the Waste Disposal and Public Cleansing Act, and the GHG Protocol, etc. In calculation of CO2 emissions, Taisei Corporation uses the value of the fuel consumption of the Japan Construction Mechanization Association, from which the fat content is excluded.

● Energy-related: Fossil fuels (heavy oil, diesel, gasoline, kerosene), electrical power, city gas, and LPG consumption and their energy-equivalent values.

objective Item Calculation Method & Standard

Classification by business type Classification into civil engineering and building construction (sites), offices (excluding development projects and others), and factories

CO2 emissions Scope classification Scope 1: CO2 emissions associated with the combustion of fossil fuelsScope 2: Indirect CO2 emissions associated with the use of electricity, steam, and chilled and hot waterScope 3: CO2 emissions associated with the transport of construction waste off construction sites and the outward and return

transport of soil from construction (off-site emissions)

CO2 emissions CO2 emission coefficient: Calculated using the emission coefficient in accordance with the Act to Rationalize the Use of Diesel, Heavy Oil, and Energy and the Act on Promotion of Global Warming Countermeasures. For offices, the actual emission coefficient for FY2015 according to the electrical power company is used.

Electrical power: Calculated using the 2015 emission coefficient on the user end announced by the Federation of Electrical Power Industries of Japan (before reflecting the Kyoto credit), 0.534t-CO2 / Mwh.

City gas: Calculated using the standard calorific value of the gas supply company and the emission coefficient of the Act on Promotion of Global Warming Countermeasures.

[Offices and Factories] Energy-related and water consumption

The annual quantities purchased and used by the offices and factories of the Taisei Group are calculated in monthly units.

[Civil Engineering and building construction (sites)] Energy-related and water consumption

Calculated for each company based on the Taisei Group environmental data manual. Consumption in a two-month period in FY2016 is sampled at 193 construction sites to calculate the consumption per unit of construction turnover (basic unit). Annual consumption is calculated by multiplying this basic unit by the construction turnover for the year. For civil engineering, this calculation is performed for each construction type.

[Civil Engineering and building construction (sites)] Calculation of the main construction materials and other materials (concrete formworks and alternative formworks) purchased.

The quantities of the main construction materials and other materials purchased directly through individual construction of Taisei Corporation and joint venture construction for which Taisei Corporation is the representative. The same calculation method applies to the consumption of concrete formworks and alternative formworks.

[Civil engineering, building construction (sites), and factories] Calculation of construction and industrial waste emissions

Construction by-products (waste and valuable resources) emitted at the sites of the Taisei Group individual construction projects, joint venture construction for which Taisei Group is the representative, and factories owned by Taisei Group.

Major new orders received during FY ended March 2017

Major projects completed during FY ended March 2017

The Japanese economy during this fiscal year continued to recover

overall as capital investment has been moderately bouncing back

responding to strong corporate performance, and consumer

spending has been gradually picking up.

In the domestic construction market, both government and

private investments in construction were steady, allowing the

construction industry to maintain a solid business environment.

Under these circumstances, the Company and its affiliated

companies reported consolidated results of its operations as follows:

Orders received of 1,655.0 billion yen, 1.0% decrease

compared to the previous fiscal year, net sales of 1,487.3 billion

yen, 3.8% decrease, operating income of 140.8 billion yen, 19.9%

increase, and net income attributable to owners of parent of 90.6

billion yen,17.5% increase compared to the previous fiscal year.

3. Real Estate Development

In the real estate sales market, while demand was strong in the

condominium market mainly for properties in central Tokyo as

sales prices remained high due to the rising cost of land, some

properties in the suburbs took a long time to sell. The building

leasing market was robust, amid improvement in the vacancy

rate as corporate demand related to relocation and expansion of

floor space continued to flourish and the average rent continued

to climb.

In our Group, net sales decreased by 4.6% compared with the

previous consolidated fiscal year to ¥121.7 billion, due to a

decrease in sales for both the Company and its consolidated

subsidiaries. Also, operating income increased by 41.1% year on

year to ¥13.3 billion, due to an increase in gross profit margin.

4. Other

In our Group, net sales decreased by 12.2% compared with the

previous consolidated fiscal year to ¥13.0 billion, and operating

income increased by 27.5% year on year to ¥1.2 billion.

1. Overview

Although the business results for this consolidated fiscal year did

not achieve the predictions at the beginning of the fiscal year for net

sales, predictions were achieved for orders received, operating

income, and net income attributable to owners of parent. Also, as

net income attributable to owners of parent increased by ¥13.5

billion from the previous consolidated fiscal year to ¥90.5 billion,

ROE (return on equity) increased by 1.4% to 16.7%.

Despite an increase of ¥1.1892 trillion in liabilities due to an

increase in deposits received, net assets increased to ¥570.8 billion

due to posting of net income attributable to owners of parent, and

the ratio of capital to assets increased by 1.1% compared with the

end of the previous consolidated fiscal year to 32.3%. Also, as a

result of a decrease in interest-bearing loans associated with

procurement of finance by ¥16.5 billion to ¥238.1 billion (including

non-recourse loans of ¥3.5 billion, down ¥1.6 billion), the D/E ratio

improved 0.1 points to 0.4 times.

increased by 6.0% or ¥99.2 billion compared with the end of the

previous consolidated fiscal year to ¥1.7600 trillion.

consolidated fiscal year due to the sales of investment securities, etc.

(expenditure of ¥25.0 billion in the previous consolidated fiscal year).

3. Cash Flows from Financing Activities

A balance of expenditure of ¥60.0 billion was incurred in this

consolidated fiscal year due to cash dividends paid and acquisition

this consolidated fiscal year was ¥534.7 billion (an increase of

¥163.0 billion compared with the end of the previous consolidated

fiscal year), and the balance of interest-bearing loans associated

with procurement of finance was ¥238.1 billion (a decrease of ¥16.5

billion year on year). In addition, of the balance of interest-bearing

loans associated with procurement of finance at the end of this

consolidated fiscal year, non-recourse loans were ¥3.5 billion (a

decrease of ¥1.6 billion year on year).

1. Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Income before income taxes of ¥135.1 billion was earned in this

term, which, together with an increase in deposits received and

other factors, resulted in a balance of excess revenue of ¥218.1

The Company has made it a basic policy to pay long-term stable

dividend to Shareholders. The Company tries to reinforce internal

reserve for the future business operation, and returns the profit to

the Shareholders by way of a special dividend and the like when

the business performance of the Company is well.

Comprehensively taking into account both achievement of

much greater performance than the initial plan, and business

surroundings in the future, etc., it has been decided to increase

the dividend by ¥4 compared with the previous term and the last

dividend forecast, or a dividend of ¥20 per year per ordinary share

is allocated (of which ¥8 is allocated as an interim dividend).

The Articles of Incorporation of the Company permit an interim

dividend to be allocated, in accordance with Paragraph 5 of Article

454 of the Companies Act, with dividends allocated twice every

year, at the middle and at the end of the fiscal year. These

dividends are decided at the General Meeting of Shareholders for

the end of term and the Board meeting for the interim dividend.

Also, it is the policy to utilize retained earnings to promote

next generation technology development, etc.

At the Board meeting on May 12, 2017, acquisition of treasury

stock, the maximum limitation of which is 40 million shares (¥25.0

billion), was resolved in order to increase shareholder returns and

to improve the capital efficiency.

etc., despite carrying out an acquisition and cancellation of

treasury stock.

Despite an increase in Real Estate Development, new orders

received have decreased in Building Construction, decreasing

overall by 1.0% compared with the previous consolidated fiscal year

to ¥1.6550 trillion.

Also, net sales decreased in all segments, decreasing by 3.8% to

¥1.4872 trillion, compared with the previous consolidated fiscal year.

Operating income increased by 19.9% to ¥140.8 billion

compared with the previous consolidated fiscal year, due to an

increase in gross profit resulting from an increase in gross margin

rates in all segments.

Net income attributable to owners of parent increased by 17.5%

to ¥90.5 billion compared with the previous fiscal year, due to the

Medium-term Company Management Strategy and Issues to Be Dealt with

Although we expect the market environment to remain strong for a while, the outlook is unclear beyond the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic

deemed to be a major challenge.

Under these circumstances, we are implementing the “Medium-term Business Plan (2015-2017),” and are working with full force toward

achieving the management goals listed below.

A case of violation of the Anti-Monopoly Act occurred at our group company TAISEI ROTEC CORPORATION. We consider this to be a

grave and serious matter, and will strive to prevent recurrence and to restore trust at an early stage by implementing even more rigorous

Risk Information

The main items of risk for the business of this Group which are considered to have the potential to have an important effect on the decisions

of investors are as follows. The Group recognizes the possibility of occurrence of these risks, and intends to take measures to avoid these

risks, and deal with them when they occur.

Matters described relating to the future are the judgment of the Group as of the end of this consolidated financial year.

1. Trends in the Construction and Real Estate Markets

If the construction or real estate markets suddenly shrink or if the

competitive environment becomes severe, it could affect out results.

2. Risks Associated with Overseas Projects

We carry out projects in many countries throughout the world, so

terrorism, war, violence, etc., could occur, the circumstances in

the country could worsen, there could be sudden fluctuations in

the economic situation, there could be large fluctuations in the

exchange rates, and changes in laws and regulations could

change without notice, and if it is not possible to hedge these

risks through the contract, our results could be affected.

3. Customer Credit Risk

Normal contracts in the construction industry involve a large

contract amount in a single transaction, and in most cases

contracts are concluded on the condition that a large amount of

the construction fee is paid when the constructed object is

handed over. Therefore, if the customer runs into credit problems

before the construction fee is received, it could affect out results.

4. Fluctuations in Material and Equipment Prices

If the price of raw materials suddenly increases, and if it is difficult to

reflect this in the contract amount, our results could be affected.

5. Asset Holding Risks

Assets such as real estate and tradable securities, etc., are held

out of necessity for sales activities, so our results could be

affected by fluctuations in the present market price.

6. Retirement Benefit Obligations

If there are changes in the assumptions for calculating the

retirement benefit obligations, such as a drop in the value of

retirement assets, investment yield, discount rate, etc., our results

could be affected.

7. Fluctuations in Interest Rates

If interest rates suddenly increased, our results could be affected.

8. Defects on Construction Products or Services

If we become liable for a large amount of compensation based on

liability for defects caused by the Group's work or product liability,

our results could be affected.

9. Ancillary Related Project Risks

The Group operates ancillary projects associated with PFI

projects, leisure projects, as well as civil engineering, building, and

real estate development projects. The project period for most of

these is long, so if the project environment changes greatly in the

future, our results could be affected.

10. Legal Controls over the Civil Engineering and Building

Construction Business

The civil engineering business and the building construction

business are subject to legal controls such as the Construction

Industry Act, the Building Standard Act, the Industrial Safety and

Health Act, and the Anti-Monopoly Act, etc., and if these laws or

regulations were amended or abolished, or if new laws or regulations

were enacted, and if we were subjected to administrative disciplinary

action in accordance with these laws or regulations, our results could

be affected.

11. Occurrence of a Major Accident

If a major accident involving human injury or loss or life or damage

to a structure occurs in the civil engineering or building construction

fields, our results could be affected.

12. Large Scale Natural Disaster, etc., Risk

If a large scale earthquake, a large scale natural calamity such as

wind or water damage, etc., or if an infectious disease became an

epidemic, our results could be affected.

Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsTAISEI CORPORATION and Consolidated SubsidiariesYears Ended March 31, 2016 and 2017

1. Basis of Presenting Consolidated Financial StatementsThe accompanying consolidated financial statements of Taisei Corporation (the “Company”) and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively the “Group”) have been prepared in accordance with the provisions set forth in the Japanese Financial Instruments and Exchange Law and its related accounting regulations, and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan (“Japanese GAAP”), which are different in certain respects as to application and disclosure requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reformatted and translated into English (with some expanded descriptions) from the consolidated financial statements of the Company prepared in accordance with Japanese GAAP and filed with the appropriate Local Finance Bureau of the Ministry of Finance as required by the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law. Certain supplementary information, included in the statutory Japanese language consolidated financial statements but not required for fair presentation, is not presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The translations of the Japanese yen amounts into U.S. dollars are included solely for the convenience of readers outside Japan, using the prevailing exchange rate at March 31, 2017, which was ¥ 112.19 to U.S. $ 1. The translations should not be construed as representations of what the Japanese yen amounts have been, could have been, or could in the future be when converted into U.S. dollars at this or any other rate of exchange.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies(a) Consolidation and equity methodThe Company prepares the consolidated financial statements including the accounts of the Company and those of its majority-owned subsidiaries, whether directly or indirectly controlled. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of 29 subsidiaries for the year ended March 31, 2017 (29 subsidiaries for the year ended March 31, 2016). KYOUTAN CONSTRUCTION Co., LTD. is included in the scope of consolidation because the company became more significant on the consolidated financial statements. SHINSAI BRIDGE LLC. is excluded from the scope of consolidation because of liquidation.

Exclusion of certain small-scale subsidiaries from the scope of consolidation does not have material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

All significant intercompany transactions, account balances and unrealized gains or losses have been eliminated in consolidation.

The financial statements of non-consolidated subsidiaries, and investments in affiliated companies in which the Group does not have control but has the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for by the equity method.

The financial statements in 19 subsidiaries, mainly consist of TOKYO ACADEMIC SERVICE Co., Ltd. and EHIME HOSPITAL PERTNERS Co., Ltd. are accounted for by the equity method for the year ended March 31, 2017. 2 non-consolidated subsidiaries newly established are included in the scope of equity method.

Investments in 41 affiliated companies are also accounted for by the equity method for the year ended March 31, 2017 (43 affiliated companies for the year ended March 31, 2016). 1 affiliated company that was newly established is included in the scope of equity method. 1 affiliated company the Group sold its shares partly and other 2 affiliated companies that were liquidated are excluded from the scope of consolidation.

Exclusion of certain small-scale non-consolidated subsidiary (TAISEI-TEHRAN BERKELEY ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION COMPANY) from the scope of equity method does not have material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

All consolidated subsidiaries other than 9 consolidated overseas subsidiaries have the same balance sheet date, March 31, corresponding with that of the Company. As for the 9 consolidated overseas subsidiaries whose fiscal year ends are December 31, their financial statements as of December 31 are used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Significant transactions, if any, in the period from January 1 to March 31 have been adjusted in the consolidated financial statements.

(b) Valuation of Assets and Liabilities of SubsidiariesIn the elimination of the investments in subsidiaries, the assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries including the portion allocated to non-controlling interests are recorded based on their fair value at the time the Company acquired control of the respective subsidiaries.

(c) GoodwillSignificant excesses of investment cost over net equity of consolidated subsidiaries and affiliated companies accounted for by the equity method are recognized as goodwill (negative goodwill, if credit balance), and amortized principally over the estimated useful lives or less than twenty years on a straight-line basis. However, immaterial goodwill is charged to income in the year of acquisition. Negative goodwill is credited to income upon occurrence.

(d) Foreign Currency TranslationReceivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Japanese yen at year-end exchange rates. The resulting exchange gains and losses are reflected in the consolidated statements of income. All revenues and expenses associated with foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange prevailing when such transactions are made.

The financial statements of consolidated foreign subsidiaries and affiliated companies under the equity method are translated into Japanese yen at exchange rates prevailing at the respective year-end dates except for shareholders’ equity accounts, which are translated at historical rates. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are presented in accumulated other comprehensive income in the net assets section of the consolidated balance sheets.

(e) Cash and Cash Equivalents in the Consolidated Statements of Cash FlowsIn preparing the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash on hand, readily available deposits and short-term highly liquid investments with maturities not exceeding three months at the date of purchase and with insignificant risks of change in value are considered to be cash and cash equivalents.

(f) SecuritiesSecurities held by the Group are classified into (a) debt securities intended to be held to maturity (hereafter “held-to-maturity debt securities”), (b) equity securities issued by subsidiaries and affiliated companies, and (c) all other securities that are not classified in any of the categories above (hereafter “available-for-sale securities”).

Held-to-maturity debt securities are stated at amortized cost. Equity securities issued by subsidiaries and affiliated companies that are not consolidated or accounted for by the equity method are stated at moving-average cost. Available-for-sale securities with available fair market values are stated at fair market value. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, net of applicable income taxes are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the net assets section. Realized gains and losses on sales of such securities are computed using moving-average cost. Other securities with no available fair market value are stated at moving-average cost.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (cont.)TAISEI CORPORATION and Consolidated SubsidiariesYears Ended March 31, 2016 and 2017

(g) Revenue Recognition of Construction Revenue associated with construction contracts of which the outcome can be reliably estimated is accounted for by the percentage-of-completion method; otherwise contract revenue is accounted for by the completed-contract method. The percentage of completion at the end of the reporting period is determined by the percentage of the cost incurred to the estimated total costs.

(h) InventoriesThe Company and its certain subsidiaries develop real estate projects on their own account. Cost on development projects in progress are mainly stated at the lower of cost based on the specific-identification cost method or net realizable value. For this purpose, the cost includes the purchase cost of land, incidental costs, direct development costs and (in relation to certain developments by one of the subsidiaries) interest expenses.

Cost on uncompleted contracts is mainly stated at cost based on the specific-identification cost method.

(i) Property, plant and EquipmentProperty, plant and equipment except for buildings and structures are recorded at cost and depreciated principally by the declining-balance method over the standard useful lives prescribed in the Corporation Tax Law. Buildings and structures are principally depreciated by the straight-line method.

(j) Accounting for Lease TransactionsFinance leases, except for certain immaterial or short-term finance leases in which ownership is not transferred to lessee, are capitalized. Capitalized leased assets whose ownership is transferred to lessee are depreciated by the same method of depreciation applied to property, plant and equipment. Capitalized leased assets whose ownership is not transferred to lessee are depreciated to a residual value of zero by the straight-line method over a useful life period corresponding to the lease contract period.

(k) Derivatives and Hedge AccountingDerivative financial instruments are stated at fair value and changes in fair value are recognized as gains or losses unless derivative financial instruments are used for hedging purposes.

If derivative financial instruments are used as hedges and meet certain hedging criteria, the Company and its consolidated domestic subsidiaries defer recognition of gains or losses resulting from changes in fair value of the derivative financial instruments until related losses or gains on hedged items are recognized.

If interest rate swap contracts are used as hedge and meet certain hedging criteria, net amounts to be paid or received under the interest rate swap contracts are added to or deducted from the interest on liabilities for which the swap contract were executed.

(l) Income TaxesThe Company and its wholly owned domestic subsidiaries apply the system of consolidated tax returns.

The Company computes the provision for income taxes based on the pretax income included in the consolidated statement of income and recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities.

(m) Allowance for Doubtful AccountsAllowance for doubtful accounts is provided to reserve for probable losses from bad debt. It consists of the estimated uncollectible amount of certain identified doubtful receivables and the amount estimated on the basis of the past default ratio for normal receivables.

(n) Allowance for Warranty on Completed ContractsAllowance for warranty on completed contracts is provided as the amount estimated using an actual ratio of related losses during the past certain periods.

(o) Allowance for Losses on Construction ContractsAllowance for losses on construction contracts is provided with respect to construction projects for which eventual losses are reasonably estimated.

(p) Allowance for Losses on Order ReceivedAllowance for losses on order received is provided with respect to orders (excluding construction contracts) for which eventual losses are reasonably estimated.

(q) Retirement Benefits for Directors and Corporate AuditorsRetirement benefits for directors and corporate auditors of certain consolidated subsidiaries have been set up in accordance with each company’s regulations.

(r) Allowance for Losses on Investments in Subsidiaries and AffiliatesAllowance for losses on investments in subsidiaries and affiliates is provided for estimated losses from certain subsidiaries and affiliates in liquidation.

(s) Allowance for Environmental ProtectionAllowance for environmental Protection is provided based on estimated costs for disposal of Polychlorinated Biphenyl (“PCB”) waste, which is obligated to dispose by the Act on Special Measures Concerning Promotion of Proper Treatment of PCB Waste.

(t) Allowance for Losses on Anti-Monopoly ActAllowance for losses on Anti-Monopoly Act is provided based on estimated payment for penalties under the Anti-Monopoly Act.

(u) Accounting Method for Retirement BenefitNet defined benefit liability is provided for severance and retirement benefits for employees and executive officers of the Company’s certain consolidated subsidiaries based on estimated amounts of projected benefit obligations and plan assets at the year-end.

In calculating projected benefit obligations, the method of attributing estimated amounts of retirement benefits to the period until this fiscal year is based on the benefit formula basis.

Past service costs are amortized using the straight-line method (some consolidated subsidiaries use the declining-balance method) over 1-10 years, which is not longer than an average remaining service period of the employees when the costs are incurred.

Actuarial gains and losses are amortized from the subsequent fiscal year (some consolidated subsidiaries amortize actuarial gains and losses from the current fiscal year) using the straight line method (some consolidated subsidiaries use the declining balance method) over 1-10 years, which is not longer than an estimated average remaining service period of the employees when the gains or losses are incurred.

(v) Net Income and Cash Dividends per ShareNet income per share is calculated by dividing net income available to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Cash dividends per share shown for each year represent dividends declared as applicable to the respective years.

(w) ReclassificationsCertain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.

(x) Change in Accounting Policy· Application of Implementation Guidance on Recoverability of Deferred Tax AssetsEffective from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, the Group adopted “Implementation Guidance on Recoverability of Deferred Tax Assets (the “Guidance”)” (ASBJ Guidance No. 26, March 28, 2016) and revised part of accounting method on recoverability of deferred income tax assets.

The Company and its domestic subsidiaries followed the provisional treatments in article 49 (4) of the Guidance. The differences between deferred income tax assets and liabilities at the beginning of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 that were computed in accordance with article 49 (3) and those at the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 were adjusted to retained earnings and other comprehensive income at the beginning of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. The impact on the consolidated financial statements is immaterial.· Changes in depreciation methodEffective from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, the Group adopted “Practical Solution on a change in depreciation method due to Tax Reform 2016” (ASBJ PITF No. 32, June 17, 2016) in associated with the amendments to the Japanese Corporation Tax laws. According to this adoption, the Group changed the depreciation method of building facilities and structures acquired after April 1, 2016 from declining-balance method to straight-line method. The impact on the consolidated financial statements is immaterial.

3. Cash and Cash EquivalentsCash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2016 and 2017 consisted of the following:

Millions of Yen Thousands of U.S. Dollars

2016 2017 2017

Cash and time deposits .......................................................................... ¥ 374,193 ¥ 535,592 $ 4,773,973

Less: Time deposits with maturities exceeding three months .................. (2,462) (805) (7,176)

Cash and cash equivalents ..................................................................... ¥ 371,731 ¥ 534,787 $ 4,766,797

4. Financial Instruments(1) Policies for using financial instrumentsThe Group restricts investments to the low risk assets such as deposits, and raise funds by the indirect finance such as loans from bank as well as by the direct finance such as issuing corporate bonds or commercial papers.

Derivative financial instruments are employed mainly for hedging fluctuation in interest rate and foreign currency exchange, and not used to speculate.

Receivables: trade notes and trade accounts are exposed to the credit risks of customers. In order to reduce such risks, the Group conducts strict credit examinations when orders are received, and afterward manage the receivables individually and make effort to detect reduction of credit risks early.

For investment securities which are mainly held-to-maturity debt securities and shares held to keep the relationship with business partners, the Group regularly monitors the fair values or financial positions of the invested companies, and revises the portfolio timely (except for held-to-maturity debt securities) considering the relationship with them.

Debts, trade payables: notes and accounts are debts mostly due within one year. Loans, commercial papers and bonds are primarily for working capital, and have maturity dates of five years or less. Although the loans or bonds issued at variable rates are exposed to interest rate fluctuation risk, the risk is hedged by derivative transactions (interest rate swap contracts).

The Group primarily utilizes derivative transactions related to interest rates in order to mitigate the fluctuation risk in interest rates or to reduce financing costs, and derivative transactions related to currency in order to mitigate the foreign exchange risk. These transactions are exposed to the fluctuation risk in interest rates and the foreign exchange risk. However, the Group is exposed to limited risk, because most of them are hedged by the corresponding transactions. They consider the credit risk to be low, because they conduct derivative transactions solely with reliable international financial institutions.

The Group executes and manages derivative transactions in accordance with internal rules. Their Finance Departments are responsible for conducting, evaluating transactions and managing related risks.

Note 1: The calculation method of the fair values of financial instrument and securities, derivative transactionsASSETS∙ Cash and time deposits and Notes and accounts receivable, trade The fair values of these financial instruments are almost equivalent to the book value, due to the short term settlements; although, the fair value of receivables due after one year are based on the present values of discounted cash flows reflecting the interest rate, the estimated collection terms and credit risks with respect to each receivables categorized by collection terms.· Investment securitiesThe fair values of marketable securities are based on the quoted market value, and bonds are based on the market value, the price indicated by a third party such as broker or the present value of discounted cash flows.

See the notes on “5. Securities” for notes pertaining to securities categorized by the purposes for which they are held.

LIABILITIES∙ Notes and accounts payable, trade, Short-term loans and Long term loans due within one year, Commercial papers and Deposits received The fair values of these financial instruments are almost equivalent to the book value, due to the short term settlements; although, the fair value of long-term loans due within one year is based on the same method as that for long-term loans.∙ Long-term loansThe fair value of long-term loans is based on the present value of discounted cash flows by the interest rate which may be applicable when the same kind of loans is conducted. ∙ BondsThe fair value of marketable bonds is based on the quoted market value, otherwise the fair value of nonmarketable bonds are based on the present value of discounted cash flows by the interest rate reflecting the estimated redemption terms and issuer’s credit risk.

[Derivative financial instruments]See the notes on “13. Derivative Transactions”.

Note 2: Financial instruments for which it is deemed to be extremely difficult to calculate the fair valueNonmarketable securities (book value amount to ¥ 70,759 million and ¥ 64,576 million ($ 575,595 thousand) at March 31, 2016 and 2017, respectively) are not included in the Assets Investment securities–Available-for-sale securities above, as it is extremely difficult to calculate the fair values because they have no quoted market prices and the future cash flows cannot be estimated.

11. Net AssetsNet assets comprise three subsections; which are shareholders’ equity, accumulated other comprehensive income and non-controlling interests.

Under Japanese laws and regulations, the entire amount paid for new shares is required to be designated as common stock. However, a company may, by a resolution of the Board of Directors, designate an amount not exceeding one-half of the price of the new shares as additional paid-in capital, which is included in capital surplus.

Under the Japanese Corporate Law (“the Law”), when a dividend distribution of surplus is made, the smaller of an amount equal to 10% of the dividend or the excess, if any, of 25% of common stock over the total of additional paid-in capital and legal earnings reserve must be set aside as additional paid-in capital or legal earnings reserve. Legal earnings reserve is included in retained earnings in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Under the Law, appropriations of legal earnings reserve and additional paid-in capital generally require a resolution of the shareholders’ meeting.

Additional paid-in capital and legal earnings reserve may not be distributed as dividends. Under the Law, however, all additional paid-in capital and all legal earnings reserve may be transferred to other capital surplus and retained earnings, respectively, which are potentially available for dividends.

The maximum amount that the Company can distribute as dividends is calculated based on the non-consolidated financial statements of the Company in accordance with the Law.

The number of treasury stock owned by the Company, consolidated subsidiaries and affiliated companies adopting the equity method as of March 31, 2016 and 2017 were 1,371 thousand shares and 1,408 thousand shares, respectively.

Segment Information(1) Segment information(a) General information on reportable segmentsEach reportable segment of the Group is a business unit in the Group, whose discrete financial information is available. Reportable segments are reviewed periodically at the Board of Directors Meeting in order to determine distribution of management resources and evaluate business result of each reportable segment.

The headquarters in the head office are established by the products of construction and the services. Each headquarter proposes comprehensive domestic and oversea strategies with respect to products and services, and operates its business activities.

The Group consists of segments identified by products and services based on the headquarters, and identifies the three segments, “Civil engineering,” “Construction contracts,” and “Real estate development” as reportable segments: “Civil engineering” delivering construction of civil engineering, etc.; “Construction contracts” delivering construction of building and housing, etc.; “Real estate development” delivering purchase, sale and rental of land and buildings, etc.

(b) Basis of measurement of net sales, profit or loss and other material items on reportable segmentThe accounting methods for each reportable segment are the same as that set forth in the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”. The profit (loss) of a reportable segment is based on the operating income (loss) before amortization of goodwill in Consolidated Statements of Income. In addition, conditions of intersegment transactions and transfers are determined by considering market prices as in the case of other general transactions.

Assets of the Group are not allocated to the segments. However, the corresponding depreciation expenses are allocated to the segments according to the rational bases such as the usage of assets.

(c) Information of net sales, profit or loss and other material items on reportable segmentSegment information as for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2017 are as follows:
