Fluctuations in the market value of securities, land and other assets held by the Mitsubishi Materials Group could impact the Group's business results and financial status.
For this reason, we regularly monitor securities in terms of market prices and the financial status of issuers, and continuously reevaluate the status of our holding in light of our relationship with the issuer. Regarding the impairment of fixed assets, we also pursue the sale of unused land, and check for signs of impairment regarding business assets, such as by obtaining real estate appraisals as needed.
