Our information disclosures based on TCFD recommendations
(Updated: February 13, 2026)
The Group endorses the TCFD's (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures) recommendations and strengthened our system to properly analyze and assess the risks and opportunities that climate change imposes on the Group's business. Through this, the Group aims to continually generate operating profits, and improve social recognition by integrating climate change risks and opportunities into our business strategy. Moving forward, we will enhance our information disclosures based on TCFD recommendations, and promote sustainable business operations that have reduced environmental impact.
The Group has positioned socially and environmentally friendly business operations as a top management priority, and will promote the management of climate change risks and opportunities led by the Sustainability Committee under the supervision of the Board of Directors.
Further, we have established the Sustainability Promotion Section and personnel assigned to sustainability in each group company, all of which are under the Sustainability Committee. Sustainability Promotion Section and personnel assigned to sustainability in each Group company will create, promote, and manage detailed measures, and report the details to the Sustainability Committee. The Sustainability Committee will periodically monitor and supervise items and initiatives concerning climate change, which will lead to continual improvements. They will also enhance future responses to climate change issues and promote sustainable business operations.
The Group conducts scenario analysis based on TCFD recommendations to accurately identify the business risks and growth opportunities brought upon by climate change and achieve continual growth. Most recently we analyzed the Content and Digital Business as well as the Amusement Equipment Business, and found that worsening climate change and government policies on decarbonization will impact the business environment.
In the scenario analysis, we used scenarios assuming 1.5℃ and 4℃.In the 1.5℃ scenario, the analysis results showed that risks in transitioning to decarbonization (e.g. introducing and strengthening carbon taxes and energy costs) would impact business activities. Then in the 4℃ scenario, the results indicated that physical risks (e.g. increasing abnormal weather and infrastructure damage due to rising temperatures) would impact business operations.
This analysis used scenarios from the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) and IEA (International Energy Agency) to predict the effects in the year 2030. We will continue to assess risks and opportunities related to climate change, promote sustainable business activities, and be transparent in information disclosures to our stakeholders.
| Scenario Summaries | Reference scenarios | |
|---|---|---|
| 1.5℃ scenario | Scenario in which stricter climate change measures than now are taken and the increase of global average temperature is limited to 1.5°C | ・SSP1-1.9 from IPCC ・NZE from IEA (part of preliminary calculation based on SDS) |
| 4℃ scenario | Scenario in which no stricter climate change measures are taken that now and the average global temperature rises by about 4°C | ・SSP5-8.5 (RCP 8.5) from IPCC ・STEPS from IEA |
In the 1.5℃ scenario, carbon taxes and emissions trading are expected to increase as environmental regulations become more stringent. There will be significant risks (e.g. damage to the corporate trust and brand value) if the Group does not carry out environmental initiatives as a company. In the 4°C scenario, it is predicted that climate change will get much worse, resulting in fewer opportunities to go outside because of typhoons, heavy rains, and extreme heat. As a result, there is a risk of lost opportunities for sales and events, but on the other hand, demand for digital content as well as indoor and online events is expected to increase.

In the 1.5℃ scenario, carbon taxes and emissions trading are expected to increase due to rising demands to consider the environment.
Even in PS machines, it is predicted that there will be increased demand for development of products that meet energy conservation and recycling concerns. In the 4°C scenario, it is predicted that worsening climate change will increase the physical risks at manufacturing locations and sales offices, as well as stores (parlors). Additionally, severe weather like heavy rain, typhoons, and intense heat may reduce the number of customers visiting stores and sales, leading to reduced purchasing power of parlors (clients).We will strive to reduce physical risks such as by strengthening BCP, and are thinking about conducting new forms of parlor operation and service support that have been adapted to climate change.

We recognize climate change risks as major threats to sustainability of our business and are taking the appropriate measures.
We categorize climate change risks into transition risks (regulatory and market changes associated with transition to a decarbonized society) and physical risks (effects from temperature increases and abnormal weather). These risks are identified and evaluated in the Sustainability Promotion Section. Results of risk identifications and evaluations are reported to the Sustainability Committee. The results are reported to the Board of Directors as well to receive supervision and directions as needed.
Furthermore, the Group has strengthened the risk monitoring structure, and now we periodically assess the status of risk occurrences and progress of countermeasures, and make efforts to review and improve the measures when necessary. We will also continue to enhance future responses to climate change risks and implement initiatives for realizing sustainable business operations.
The Group will also actively promote initiatives to reduce GHG emissions to achieve the government's goal of a carbon-neutral society by 2050.GHG emissions of the Group are as written below. The objectives will be discussed and decided upon in future Sustainability Committee meetings.

* Scope 1
The fiscal year ended March 2025: Direct greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions were calculated by multiplying the total gasoline consumption of vehicles used by TSUBURAYA FIELDS HOLDINGS INC., FIELDS CORPORATION, and Tsuburaya Productions Co., Ltd., as well as the total gas consumption at certain branches and showrooms of FIELDS CORPORATION, by the relevant CO₂ emission factors listed in the Ministry of the Environment, Government of Japan’s “List of Calculation Methods and Emission Factors for the Calculation, Reporting, and Publication System” available at the end of the fiscal year under review.
The fiscal year ended March 2024: Emissions were calculated by multiplying the total gasoline consumption of vehicles used by TSUBURAYA FIELDS HOLDINGS INC., FIELDS CORPORATION, and Tsuburaya Productions Co., Ltd. by the emission factors listed in the Ministry of the Environment, Government of Japan’s “List of Calculation Methods and Emission Factors for the Calculation, Reporting, and Publication System” available at the end of the fiscal year under review.
The fiscal year ended March 2023: Emissions were calculated based on the gasoline consumption of vehicles used by TSUBURAYA FIELDS HOLDINGS INC. and FIELDS CORPORATION.
Due to an increase in the adoption rate of hybrid vehicles and other factors, emissions for the fiscal year ended March 2025 decreased compared to the previous year.
*Scope 2
The fiscal year ended March 2025: Emissions were calculated based on the total electricity consumption at the headquarters office complex housing TSUBURAYA FIELDS HOLDINGS INC., FIELDS CORPORATION, Tsuburaya Productions Co., Ltd., and 13 other companies, four additional bases of Tsuburaya Productions Co., Ltd. (excluding its headquarters), the headquarters and motion capture studio of Digital Frontier Inc., the manufacturing sites, branches, and showrooms of FIELDS CORPORATION, and other offices.
The fiscal year ended March 2024: Emissions were calculated based on the total electricity consumption at the headquarters office complex housing TSUBURAYA FIELDS HOLDINGS INC., FIELDS CORPORATION, Tsuburaya Productions Co., Ltd., and 13 other companies, four other bases of Tsuburaya Productions Co., Ltd. (excluding its headquarters), the headquarters and motion capture studio of Digital Frontier Inc., the manufacturing sites, 25 branches, and five showrooms of FIELDS CORPORATION (as of the update date), and other offices.
The fiscal year ended March 2023: Emissions were calculated based on the total electricity consumption at the headquarters office complex housing TSUBURAYA FIELDS HOLDINGS INC., FIELDS CORPORATION, Tsuburaya Productions Co., Ltd., and 13 other companies, as well as the Sendai, Hiroshima, and Fukuoka branches of FIELDS CORPORATION.
The location-based and market-based Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions were measured by multiplying the electricity consumption at each office by the emissions factors by electricity providers, as listed in the “List of Emission Factors by Electricity Providers” published by the Ministry of the Environment, Government of Japan, available at the end of each consolidated fiscal year.
*Scope 3
For the fiscal years ended March 2025 and March 2024, we newly calculated GHG emissions from employee business travel (Category 6) and commuting (Category 7).
For Category 6, emissions were estimated based on annual nationwide expenses for business travel, including transportation, accommodation, and package tours (referenced from the Japan Tourism Agency's "Travel and Tourism Consumption Trend Survey (2010)"). The relevant unit emissions per Japanese yen for different transportation modes and accommodations were applied to these expenses to derive total emissions. Emissions per worker for all employed persons were then calculated, and finally multiplied by the (consolidated) number of employees.
For Category 7, emissions were calculated based on the amount of commuting expenses paid by transportation category to employees of TSUBURAYA FIELDS HOLDINGS INC., FIELDS CORPORATION, Tsuburaya Productions Co., Ltd., and Digital Frontier Inc.
* The GHG data are estimates calculated by the Company, based on emission factors published by the Ministry of the Environment, Government of Japan, and reflect the range of data available to us as of the reporting date. These figures are subject to change in the future.
