6 About the Fujifilm Group The Fujifilm Group s Value Creation History The history of the Fujifilm Group is a history of innovation. The Fujifilm Group was established in 1934 to produce photographic film in Japan. Since its founding, Fujifilm has consistently anticipated the future during times of change, has amassed a wide range of technologies, and provided innovative products and services. Since 2, putting the Company s future at risk, we undertook drastic business restructuring due to the demand for photographic film, our mainstay product, has declined sharply due to digitization. The key, at that time, was the advanced and various technological capabilities of our photographic business. Fujifilm established businesses with a competitive advantage based on a variety of technologies such as optics, chemicals, and electronics, which are needed to develop and produce photo-related products. The Fujifilm Group, which had overcome a turbulent second foundation and gotten back on a growth track, has even more developed products, services, and solutions unique to the Fujifilm Group with the aim of strategic leap forward.

12 New CSR Plan / New Medium-Term Management Plan New CSR Plan Sustainable Value Plan 23 Contributing to solving social issues through Sustainable Value Plan 23 We have formulated Sustainable Value Plan 23 ( SVP23 ), a new CSR plan specifying targets for the fiscal year ending March 231 (FY231/3). The Fujifilm Group believes that solving social issues provides opportunities for business growth. By actively creating new value as part of our efforts to address each challenge, we are committed to continuously contributing to the development of a sustainable society as a key management priority. Such commitment is further reinforced through formulation of SVP23. In this new CSR plan, we show our strong will to contribute to resolving social issues of the global scale through business activities. FUJIFILM Holdings has been creating new value to resolve social issues through Sustainable Value Plan 216, a medium-term CSR plan for FY215/3 through FY217/3. Through the new formulation of long-term goals for FY231/3 in SVP23, the Fujifilm Group is aiming to contribute further to the realization of a sustainable society, with increased efforts to resolve social issues through its business activities by providing innovative technologies, products and services. In the global society, a number of long-term goals have been published recently with the aim of resolving social issues. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs*), which were adopted by the United Nations in September 215, identified 17 goals for the global society to make efforts to resolve these social issues by 23. In addition, the global decision was made over the Paris Agreement, which entered into force in November 216. The agreement aims to strengthen the global response to the threat of climate change to keep a global temperature rise well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. SVP23 is a new CSR plan targeting FY231/3 which aims to contribute to the achievement of goals related to the resolution of social issues identified by international initiatives such as the SDGs and the Paris Agreement. SVP23 defines the environment, health, daily life and working style as four key areas, which will be addressed from the perspectives of both resolving social issues through business activities and considering environmental and social impacts through business processes. Furthermore, as a global company, SVP23 specifies the stronger CSR foundations, in terms of environmental, ethical and human rights issues affecting the whole supply chain and also refer to the stronger governance required to achieve the further penetration of an open, fair and clear corporate culture. In the area of the environment, we will contribute to solving environmental issues as well as reducing our own environmental burden. In particular, the plan identifies numerical targets for CO 2 emissions and water usage to be achieved by FY231/3. The targets for CO 2 emissions are to achieve a 3% reduction in the volume of CO 2 emitted across the entire product lifecycle compared to FY214/3, and contribute to a 5-million-ton reduction in the volume of CO 2 emitted in a society by encouraging wider use of the company s products and services. This reduction offsets the equivalent volume of CO 2 emitted by the company between FY218/3 and FY231/3. The Fujifilm Group is committed to reduce water usage of the entire group by 3% in comparison to FY214/3, keeping overall usage below 35 million tons in FY231/3. In addition, the Fujifilm Group is aiming to contribute to the processing of 35 million tons of water per year in FY231/3 through the provision of highly functional materials and services used for water processing. It aims to achieve the environmental contribution that is equal to or greater than the environmental impact of the Company s business activities. In the area of health, the Fujifilm Group is aiming to create a healthy society through the process of prevention, diagnosis and treatment in healthcare. The group s aims in the area of daily life are to support the tangible and intangible aspects of social infrastructure in people s lives through various products, services and technologies. In the area of working style, the Fujifilm Group is aiming to extend in-house work-style reforms to change society so that everyone can be satisfied with his/her job. By focusing on these areas, the corporate group aims to resolve these various social issues through its business activities. The Fujifilm Group will work to contribute to the resolution of social issues and raise the company s corporate value by promoting activities along with SVP23 and creating new value through the development of products, services and technologies. * SDGs are new sustainable development goals adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in September 215 in order to follow on from the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) which were established in 21. SDGs states no one will be left behind as its slogan, and has 17 sustainable development goals and 169 targets for global society to tackle as social issues by 23. 1

18 Management Message Message from the CEO Contributing to resolving social issues through business activities to achieve a strategic leap forward Shigetaka Komori, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer 16

19 Management Message We help enrich society through our technologies, products, and services I believe that the purpose of any company is to help make people s lives better and enrich society through their technologies and the products and services they provide; that is, to contribute to resolving social issues through business. The Fujifilm Group, as an example, has made a valuable contribution to society for years by providing photographic film, making people happy by helping to preserve the pleasure they experience and brilliant memories they build up in their life. The advance of digital technology caused demand for photographic film to decline drastically, putting the Group s viability at risk. However, the Group has overcome this difficulty through business restructuring based on technologies it has cultivated. This was made possible by human resources, sound and appropriate decisions by management, and the high levels of technological capabilities developed through the research, development and manufacture of photographic film. The Group put these capabilities together and tapped into new businesses in various fields, successfully developing a business structure that can stably generate cash flows. Some think that when a technology has had its day, a company dependent on it is no longer needed and is better replaced by a company with new technology. However, I believe that companies can continue to generate new value by combining and putting to use their management resources which include excellent human resources, technologies, and corporate culture. In that sense, a company is an extremely rational and efficient organization capable of generating new value. The Group will capture changes in society, create innovations and continue to deliver new value to society while continuing to grow as a going concern. Viewing social changes as opportunities for and driving growth of businesses Based on these ideas, the Fujifilm Group formulated Value from Innovation as its corporate slogan in 214. In addition, the Group drew up the Sustainable Value Plan 216 (SVP216), its medium-term CSR plan, and the medium-term management plan VISION216, the action plan detailing concrete measures to achieve SVP216. The Group has made every effort to achieve the objectives of these plans. In SVP216, we made a commitment to implementing CSR activities from the new perspective of contributing to resolving social issues through its business activities, in addition to the existing policy of being conscious of the environmental and social impact within business processes. Based on this policy, the Group devoted its efforts to contributing to resolving social issues in the priority fields of health and environment through the provision of energy-saving products and services in the healthcare and other businesses. Under VISION216 positioning the healthcare, highly functional materials, document business fields as growth drivers, the Group has expanded revenue, market share, and profits using the growth drivers with sales promotions and new product launches, enhanced its business portfolio and achieved steady growth in each business. As a result, the Group achieved revenue of 2,322.2 billion and operating income of billion for the fiscal year ended March 31, 217 (FY217/3), the final year of VISION216. Excluding the negative impact of the appreciation of the yen (a decrease in revenue of billion and operating income of 33.6 billion), the Group achieved an increase in both revenue and profits, with net income attributable to Fujifilm Holdings rising to a record high of billion and ROE reaching 6.5%, the highest for Fujifilm Holdings. In this manner, the Group has succeeded in attaining solid results during the past three years by simultaneously contributing to resolving social issues and growing its businesses with linking the two plans of SVP216 and VISION

20 Management Message Carrying through VISION219 and achieving a strategic leap forward The Fujifilm Group drew up SVP23 and VISION219 in August 217 based on the results and experience of the preceding two plans to ensure further growth. SVP23 is a CSR plan specifying targets for FY231/3 in accordance with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by the United Nations in September 215. In this CSR plan, the Group expressed its renewed strong commitment to contributing to resolving social issues on a global scale through its business activities. The new medium-term management plan VISION219 is the action plan specifying concrete measures to realize the vision the Group will strive to achieve through SVP23. Under VISION219, we will further enhance the business portfolio developed by the Group with the aim of achieving a strategic leap forward. Specifically, the plan maps the Imaging, Information and Document Solutions businesses to the stages of improving profitability, accelerating growth and investing for the future, and is designed to implement appropriate measures according to each stage in order to further strengthen the profitability of individual businesses. I believe what is critical is to overcome the two challenges of driving strong growth in the healthcare field as a core business by improving the profitability of the pharmaceutical and regenerative medicine businesses and strengthening the document business field amid the changing business environment. In the healthcare field, we will enhance the production capacity for the contract manufacturing of biopharmaceuticals and the development bases for production processes. In addition, the Group will accelerate business growth by stepping up research and development in fields where the Group can capitalize on its technologies, such as research and development of pipeline and drug delivery systems. In the document business, the Group will improve profitability by pursuing thorough cost reduction and reduction of fixed costs to strengthen the business structure, and firmly utilize its offices big data to achieve the streamlining of operations and working style, as well as productivity reforms through artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of things (IoT) to attain an operating income ratio of 1% in FY221/3. Based on the organic business growth, the Group will aim to achieve a record high operating income of 23 billion and net income attributable to Fujifilm Holdings of 15 billion for FY22/3, the final year of VISION219. We will aim for an ROE of 7.3% in FY22/3 with the target of achieving an ROE of 8.% in FY221/3. Meanwhile, a total of 5 billion will be set aside as an investment fund for strategic M&A and shareholder returns will be boosted to 3 billion. We plan to pay annual cash dividends of 95 per share applicable to FY22/3, making consecutive dividend increase for 1 years. For the Group to carry out these targets, it is necessary for all employees to accept SVP23 and VISION219 as their own plans, and carry out the missions assigned to them as members of a truly global company with a more proactive and longer-term perspective.

21 Management Message Bringing together the Fujifilm Group s strengths in diverse fields to create innovation The Fujifilm Group is a global company with 15 business fields and 277 Group companies around the world with around 79, employees. For the Group s employees in each country and region to face issues in their local areas, explore business opportunities on their own, and deliver appropriate products and services to customers, it is essential that they collaborate with many people and organizations. To enable this, it is critical that the Group create an open, fair, and clear corporate culture which is diverse and accepts different values. We would like to express our deepest regrets to our shareholders and stakeholders for any inconvenience and concerns caused due to the delay in the announcement of our consolidated financial results for FY217/3. This was to review the inappropriate accounting conducted by overseas sales subsidiaries of Fuji Xerox which is engaged in the document business. In order to prevent the recurrence of such an issue, the Group is implementing measures to strengthen governance, such as dispatching management personnel from Fujifilm Holdings to Fuji Xerox, integrating the accounting and auditing departments, and establishing the Committee for Strengthening Governance. Fuji Xerox created the market as a pioneer in the field of office document solutions and, as a leading company in the industry, has outstanding capabilities, such as its excellent approach to customers, technological capability, marketing capability, and strength in proposals. I believe it is important that, through the new management structure, we will merge Fujifilm s strengths such as high strategic capability, speed of execution, and fairness with those of Fuji Xerox to make it a better company. We have already launched initiatives to demonstrate the synergy of the two companies in the graphics business and other businesses to make these challenges into opportunity. The Group will combine the strengths of the two companies with an open, fair, and clear corporate culture as the guiding principle, and make all-out efforts for creating new innovations and lead them to the growth of each of its businesses. As the management and employees will make a united effort toward attaining VISION219, we request the continued support and understanding of all stakeholders of the Fujifilm Group.

22 Management Message Interview with the COO Toward Achieving VISION219, the New Medium-Term Management Plan Kenji Sukeno, President and Chief Operating Officer Q1 Tell us about the results of the medium-term management plan VISION216, which has been completed, and the remaining challenges. To sum up our achievements under the previous medium-term management plan VISION216, we accelerated the growth of our growth drivers of the healthcare and highly functional materials businesses by efficiently utilizing the stable profit and cash generated from the business portfolio that was established through our successful restructuring of business structure, and succeeded in improving the profitability of all our businesses. In addition, we have made progress in fulfilling our business portfolio and strengthening the ability to stably generate profits. As a result, I believe we have, for the most part, achieved the targets set out in VISION216. Specifically, our main accomplishments are as follows. In the Imaging Solutions segment, the Fujifilm Group achieved significant profit improvements in the photo imaging business, centering around the instax instant photo systems, and the electronic imaging business, for which we have successfully shifted the focus to high-end mirrorless digital camera models which significantly improved profitability. In the optical device business, the Group advanced the development of high value-added products, such as 4K broadcast lenses, and promoted cost reduction through the downsizing of unprofitable businesses, optimization of production systems, and improvement of production processes. In the healthcare business field of the Information Solutions segment, we achieved steady growth in the four priority fields (endoscopes, ultrasound diagnosis, medical IT, and IVD (In Vitro Diagnostics)) in the medical systems business, and maintained an operating income ratio of 1%. In the pharmaceuticals business, the Group made progress with the development of a pipeline of potential new drugs went as planned, and turned the Bio CDMO (Contract Development & Manufacturing Organization) business into a high growth and high profitability business by applying technologies which it cultivated through photographic film manufacturing. In the regenerative medicine business, we solidified the business foundation by transforming Japan Tissue Engineering Co., Ltd. (J-TEC) into a consolidated subsidiary and acquiring Cellular Dynamics International, Inc. (CDI). In the highly functional materials business field, we acquired major customers by expanding the lineup, mainly of advanced products, in the electronic materials business and maintained high 2

23 Management Message growth in revenues and profits. In the flat panel display materials business, we continued to secure a high level of profits through the stable supply of TAC films, while advancing the development of new materials. In the industrial products business, sales expansion of highly functional products, such as the EXCLEAR sensor film for touch screen panels, contributed to the sales growth of the Group. In the recording media business, Fujifilm introduced large capacity tapes that use barium ferrite (BaFe) particles based on its unique technologies, and successfully drove sales and profit in step with the expansion of the data archive market. In this manner, the Fujifilm Group strengthened many businesses that comprise its business portfolio. However, reinforcement of the Document Solutions segment remained an issue to be addressed. In the Document Solutions segment, although growth strategies were implemented, the Group was unable to make up for the negative factors that occurred during the VISION216 period, such as increased costs due to the appreciation of the US dollar, the effects of depreciation of exchange rates of countries in the Asia-Oceania region, and maturing of the printer market. As a result, both sales and profit in this business fell below our targets. In the pharmaceuticals business field, sales of low-molecular antimicrobial drugs, one of the major profit sources, were affected by generic drugs, and therefore profits did not improve. What the Fujifilm Group will strive to achieve through the new medium-term management plan VISION219 is to take appropriate measures for these two issues and further expand the results attained through VISION 216. Q2 Explain the growth strategies of the new medium-term management plan VISION219. The new medium-term management plan VISION219 is a three-year plan designed to lead the Fujifilm Group to the phase of achieving a strategic leap forward by further enhancing our business portfolio through deepening the profitability improvement in all projects that was achieved with VISION216, and through well-modulated business resources allocation. The VISION219 maps the Imaging, Information, and Document solution businesses to the three stages of improving profitability, accelerating growth, and investing for the future in accordance with the growth stage of each business segment. In addition, the plan clarifies current stage of each business and promotes the generation of stable cash-flow by improving profitability, expanding revenues and profits through acceleration of growth of main business areas, and development of businesses with high profitability that will constitute the cornerstones of the Group s future business operations, thereby further strengthening the business portfolio to achieve growth across the Fujifilm Group. For businesses which are at the stage of improving profitability, we will draw up and implement far-sighted strategies to achieve cash flow generation through the further improvement of profitability. Specifically, we will improve profitability by taking the following measures. In the photo imaging business, such as color paper, and the graphic systems business, such as computer-to-plate (CTP) plates, we will maintain high profitability by further expanding market share and sales of high value-added products, despite a decline in total demand. In the optical devices business, we will promote the sales expansion of highly competitive products that make use of our proprietary technologies, such as 4K broadcast lenses. In the display materials business, we will ensure stable supply of TAC film and other materials. In the office products and office printers business, we will promote the switchover in product mix from low-end models to high-end models. For businesses which are at the stage of accelerating growth, we will accelerate the maximization of revenue and profits, in addition to the promotion of growth strategies we have implemented to date. Specifically, we will aim to achieve further growth by taking the following measures. In the electronic imaging business, we will continue to expand sales of favorable mirrorless digital cameras. In the medical systems business, we will aim for an annual sales growth of 7% by pursuing a sales expansion strategy based on the far-reaching product lineup unique to Fujifilm, covering X-ray diagnostic imaging systems, medical IT, endoscopes, ultrasound, and IVD systems. In the bio CDMO business, we will aim for an annual sales growth of over 1% by expanding production capacity through capital investment and production process development. In the inkjet business, we will expand our business by leveraging high-quality and high-durability industrial heads and inks to develop new fields such as industrial applications and 3D printing, which are expected to grow. In the recording media business, we will promote even higher capacity with BaFe particles and aim to raise market share in the magnetic tape market, which is growing in demand 21

24 Management Message Interview with the COO for archiving applications. In the solutions & services business, we will aim to achieve further growth by offering high value-added solutions according to the types of business and operations of customers and supporting work-style and productivity reforms by way of utilizing offices massive Big Data and technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of things (IoT). For businesses which are at the stage of investing for the future, we will identify and concentrate management resources into areas where we can capitalize on our technologies and strengths in order to drive the growth of those businesses into engines of growth of the Fujifilm Group in the future. Specifically, in the pharmaceuticals business, we will pursue the development of the existing pipeline that targets disease areas with unmet medical needs. In the drug delivery system (DDS) field, we will work to attain the commercial application of formulation technology that makes use of our proprietary technologies, such as micro-needles and liposomes. In the regenerative medicine business, we will accelerate our business growth by expanding the lineup of ips cell-derived differentiation cells in the drug discovery support business, and promoting the sales of autologous cultured epidermis / cartilage in the cell therapy business. In cutting-edge regenerative medicine products using ips cells, we will accelerate R&D for the areas of eye disease, heart disease, neurological disorders and cancer. In addition, we will work on business expansion by expanding the contract cell culture business and deploying the culture medium business globally. In businesses other than the above-mentioned businesses, we will also take measures according to the stage of each business, and enhance business capability to further reinforce our business portfolio. Through these measures, we will aim to achieve the targets for revenues and profits for the final year of VISION 219. The performance targets of the medium-term management plan VISION219 are targets for organic business growth and do not take into account business expansion through M&A. We will pursue technological synergies and execute strategic M&A that will make one plus one equal three or four, and aim for revenue and profits that exceed targets. In drawing up the new medium-term management plan, we discussed which measures need to be taken now based on a simulation of how our businesses should look in three years with an eye on changes in the economic and market environments. We will strengthen collaboration between business divisions and utilize the strengths and assets of each function, such as sales, marketing and technology, thereby leading to the expansion of each business. We will unite efforts toward achieving the targets set out in VISION219. The Fujifilm Group looks forward to meeting your expectations on growth in the next three years. 22 Q3 Tell us how the three initiatives you have set out upon your appointment as President to strengthen and develop new businesses, to improve management efficiency, and to strengthen global development activities are reflected in VISION219. Strengthening and developing new businesses, improving management efficiency, and strengthening the global development activities are important methods for achieving our targets of VISION219. From the perspective of strengthening and developing new businesses, an important task in achieving the targets is to turn the pharmaceuticals, bio CDMO and regenerative medicine businesses, which are priority business fields of VISION219, into profit. In the pharmaceuticals and bio CDMO business, we will make capital investment and drive sales and profit growth, and accelerate progress in the research and development of pharmaceuticals by narrowing down themes to those in fields in which Fujifilm can draw upon its strengths. In the regenerative medicine business, we will expand the lineup of ips cell-derived differentiated cells in the drug discovery support business, and promote the sales of autologous cultured epidermis / cartilage manufactured by J-TEC in the cell therapy business. In addition, we will collaborate with regenerative venture companies and research institutions with advanced technologies, such as universities, and government agencies, and build the foundation for the regenerative medicine business. From the perspective of improving management efficiency, we manage with particular emphasis on numerical targets, and allocate resources for capital investment and R&D expenses to each business based on priorities according to which of the abovementioned three stages it is in. For businesses which are at the stage of improving profitability, we will make capital investment only in projects designed to improve profitability. For businesses which are at the stage of accelerating growth and investing for the future, we will proactively make the investments necessary to drive sales and build a business foundation for the future. In this manner, we will allocate resources

25 Management Message based on priorities and ensure the efficient use of cash flow across the Fujifilm Group. We will manage capital investment within depreciation in principle, and aim to reduce the ratio of R&D expenses to sales from 6.9% in the FY217/3 results to 6% or below in FY22/3, the final year of VISION219. In each of the businesses and back-office departments, we will continue with measures for improving efficiency, such as review and reduction of various expenses and promotion of shared services. In the pharmaceuticals and the document businesses in particular, we will promote thorough cost reductions and management and reduction of fixed costs while securing capital investment in their growth fields. In addition, we will promote management that places emphasis on speedy decision making and management by encouraging each employee to think about and implement what they should do to deliver innovative results in a short time and improve their work efficiency. Strengthening global development activities is the key to achieving sales growth through VISION219. To this end, we will work to expand sales of instax instant photo systems and film in emerging countries, in addition to the United States and Europe, where the product is enjoying strong sales. In the medical systems business, we will strengthen comprehensive solution proposals centering on medical IT solutions worldwide, and deliver products and services that meet local needs, in particular in emerging markets such as the Middle East and Africa. In the bio CDMO business, we will make capital investment mainly in the United States and the United Kingdom. In addition, we will advance business partnerships with China Resources (Holdings) Company Limited, one of China s largest business conglomerates, and JSC R-Pharm, one of Russia s leading pharmaceuticals companies, to expand business in the vast markets in China and Russia. In addition, we will seek to expand sales of products of Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd., which became our consolidated subsidiary in April, by utilizing Fujifilm s overseas sales channels. In the Document Solutions segment, we will pursue global business development by maintaining the top position in the growth markets of China and Asia and strengthen collaboration with Xerox Corporation. Q4 What are Fujifilm s initiatives to strengthen governance under VISION219? We express our deepest regrets for that the issue of inappropriate accounting at Fuji Xerox New Zealand and Australia have caused concern and inconvenience to our shareholders and stakeholders. This is an issue that the entire Fujifilm Group must deal with, and VISION219 therefore maps out the strengthening of governance as a key issue to develop the foundation for promoting its business strategy. The Group established the Committee for Strengthening Governance, where I serve as Chairman, in July. Under the committee, the Company launched five theme-based projects, which are a project for enhanced management of group companies, project for enhanced accounting, project for enhanced auditing, project for enhanced compliance, and project for enhanced IT governance, and is working on addressing each issue. In line with this policy, the Group has implemented governance enhancement measures. For instance, we implemented compliance re-education for all management-level personnel and employees. In addition, we established the Subsidiaries Administration Division in August, and integrated Fujifilm s financial accounting functions and audit function with those of Fuji Xerox in September. I had face-to-face discussions with all the management personnel of the Fujifilm Group in August, and the details were communicated to all employees of the Fujifilm Group companies, including overseas subsidiaries. On that occasion, I shared what the inappropriate accounting incident had made realize. Wishful thinking that minor misconduct like this won t be a problem can erode the trust of the public and inflict serious damage that could threaten the existence of a company. It takes a long time to build trust but it only takes seconds to destroy it, and it is harder to restore lost trust than to start again from scratch; and it is important to eliminate the communication gap and talk openly among Group companies, superiors and subordinates, organizations, etc. I believe our employees have become aware of the importance of these things. We will announce to our shareholders and stakeholders the progress of the initiative to strengthen governance through financial results briefing sessions and on other occasions. Anchored by a solid corporate governance system, we will strive to attain the targets of VISION

26 Corporate Governance Regarding Inappropriate Accounting of Overseas Sales Subsidiaries of Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd. With respect to inappropriate accounting conducted in the past by overseas sales subsidiaries of Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd. ( FX ), a consolidated subsidiary of FUJIFILM Holdings ( FH ), we deeply apologize to our shareholders, investors, customers and other stakeholders for any inconvenience and concerns caused. This section explains the revealed facts and recurrence-prevention measures to be taken by the Fujifilm Group. Outline It was identified as being necessary to review certain accounting practices related to certain sales leasing transactions in and prior to FY216/3 at Fuji Xerox New Zealand Ltd ( FXNZ ), an overseas sales subsidiary of FX. As an initial step, FH established an internal investigation committee to conduct investigations. Furthermore, to enhance the objectivity of the investigations, we established the Independent Investigation Committee, consisting of outside experts that do not have any financial or other interests in the Fujifilm Group in April 217, to clarify all the facts. In June 217 the report from the Independent Investigation Committee showed that in addition to FXNZ, Fuji Xerox Australia Pty. Ltd. ( FXA ) also conduced inappropriate accounting. The accumulated impact of the inappropriate accounting on the net income attributable to FUJIFILM Holdings through FY211/3 to FY216/3 is a loss of 28.1 billion. The results of the investigation by the Independent Investigation committee also raised an issue with regard to FX s internal controls. Currently, FH is engaged in initiatives to prevent recurrence and strengthen governance. About the Inappropriate Accounting Practice FXNZ had been selling equipment, by introducing Managed Services Agreements (MSAs) that bundled together equipment sales and maintenance services. Under MSAs, sales equivalent to the price of the copying machines are recorded as a single sale as a capital lease upon installation of equipment during the first fiscal year, and following that, the sales price is recovered as a copy service fee determined by multiplying the actual number of copies by the copy unit price, which is set according to the monthly target volume. In order to treat contracts as capital leases, they must satisfy certain conditions including possibility of the recovery of a minimum payment of lease fees. In the case of FXNZ, however, all transactions, including those with conditions that did not satisfy the capital lease conditions, were recorded as capital leases. Consequently, there were many transactions in which receivables could not be recovered, and this became common practice. A similar accounting practice was also conducted at FXA. Background and Managerial Issues As the background to the inappropriate accounting and managerial issues, the Independent Investigation Committee indicated the following points: Background to Inappropriate Accounting The system of incentives including bonus payments for the managing director and employees at FXNZ, based on the sales target achievement, led to continue the inappropriate accounting practice, recording sales early. At FXNZ, there was a concentration of authority with the managing director of FXNZ, and supervision by the board of directors did not function effectively, resulting in the lack of transparency in the business management process. There were problems including an insufficient subsidiary management system at Fuji Xerox Asia Pacific Pte Ltd and the lack of control over the audit system and administration department at FX. (Accordingly, information was blocked in the process of reporting within FX and appropriate information on the actual situation did not reach the Chairman and President of FX.) There were systemic deficiencies in FH monitoring of FX and its subsidiaries, the audit system of the audit department and the information sharing system. (Accordingly, appropriate information on the situation was not reported by FX to FH.) Managerial Issues Issues to be addressed at FXNZ Review of incentives emphasized on sales achievement Improve the internal system to correct the reporting line centralization Issues to be addressed at FX Strengthen the system of managing subsidiaries and affiliates Strengthen information sharing within FX and improve transparency of the business management process Strengthen the supervisory function of the board of directors and the audit function of the audit & supervisory board members and the audit department Strengthen the checking function of the accounting department Improve awareness of compliance with laws and regulations Issues to be addressed at FH Strengthen the function of managing FX 24

27 Corporate Governance Main Measures Taken by FH in Response FH has implemented personnel actions in response to the problem. Three directors, one senior vice president and one full-time corporate auditor at FX were subject to mandatory retirement, and one corporate vice president was demoted. Ten officers, namely the president, the other fulltime corporate auditor, two corporate auditors at FX and the aforementioned six officers, had their compensation and bonuses reduced by 1-5% for three months. The chairman and president of FH also returned 1% of their compensation over the three-month period. FH makes progress in strengthening of governance as following. Strengthening of governance structure of FH June 217 Changes to governance structure of FH Reducing the number of directors from 12 to nine for greater operational flexibility, promoting active deliberation by the board of directors and making quicker management decisions Appointing a total of three outside directors to raise the ratio of outside directors on the board to 1/3 to ensure the appropriateness of decision-making by incorporating opinions from multiple perspectives Strengthening of governance and the business management process of group companies June 217 Dispatching of management personnel from FH to FX Dispatch seven officers including the chairman, deputy president, executive vice president, and senior vice president from FH to FX July and August 217 Strengthening and thorough reinforcement of compliance education Conducted compliance re-education to directors of all divisions of FH, Fujifilm Corporation ( FF ), and FX, and presidents of all subsidiaries Provide compliance re-education to all employees August 217 Establishment of the Subsidiaries Establish the Administration Division to develop a mechanism to ensure appropriate information provision within the Fujifilm Group September 217 Integration of the financial accounting function Integrate the accounting function of FF and FX with the Accounting and Finance Division of FH to strengthen the business management process Establishment of the Global Audit Division Establish the Global Audit Division to strengthen the audit function through out the group November 217 Establishment of the whistleblowing system at FH Set up the common whistleblowing system so that all domestic and overseas employees of Fujifilm Group can report incidents directly to FH, to detect early and respond promptly to signs that lead to misconduct or violation of law at the companies and organizations July 217 Establishment of the FH Committee for Strengthening Governance The committee, which is chaired by FH President, has set up a comprehensive project system to implement through and continuous governance enhancement. Five projects are underway to address different themes. FH Committee for Strengthening Governance Projects for enhancing management of group companies Projects for enhancing accounting Projects for enhancing auditing Projects for enhancing compliance Projects for enhancing IT governance We express our deepest regrets regarding inappropriate accounting by overseas sales subsidiaries of FX. Taking these findings seriously, we will make every possible effort to restore the trust of stakeholders under the new management structure with a stronger governance system. 25

36 Corporate Governance Message from Outside Directors Three outside Directors, who have been newly elected for FY218/3, express their resolutions on the appointment as the Company s Directors. Contribute to growing the business and strengthening governance from the perspective of corporate manager SEIREN CO., LTD., where I currently serve as Chairman and CEO, has supplied Fujifilm with shielding components for photographic film, what it calls teremp (shielding cloth) for film cartridges, which was developed about 3 years ago. With the declining demand for photographic film, the Company s business with SEIREN is shrinking substantially. However, this appointment as the Company s outside Director makes me keenly aware of my 3-year relationship with the Fujifilm Group. The Fujifilm Group, a creator of innovative products and services in a wide variety of fields, continues to create value with the use of leading-edge, original technologies, which are undoubtedly its core competence, generating strength that is not seen in other companies. Moreover, strong leadership of the management has been a driving force to build togetherness and forward momentum with the Group s employees, and achieve innovation in acting on their own to reform the Company. The Fujifilm Group presently has 93 domestic companies and 184 overseas companies as a global company group. As the Fujifilm Group continues to grow up, how Fujifilm will strengthen governance, while drawing on the strength of each company this will become a more important issue in the future management. Outside directors play a role in supervising the Tatsuo Kawada Director (Outside) Chairman and CEO of SEIREN CO., LTD. Outside Director of Hokuriku Electric Power Company Member of the Board (external) of Daikin Industries, Ltd. Director serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee member of Hokuhoku Financial Group, Inc. management from a different viewpoint from inside directors and contribute to enhancing the corporate value of the Fujifilm Group by raising issues and giving advice. Effective this fiscal year, the Board is comprised of three outside Directors, which, I believe, raises expectation for active exchange of opinions based on broader knowledge. By utilizing my experience in corporate management I will also contribute to achieving growth of the Fujifilm Group, where every employee has a dream, thereby which can provide society with dreams. Seeing my role as a member of the Group by utilizing my experience as a legal expert I worked as a judge for 38 and a half years until I retired from the post of Director General of the Tokyo District Court in October 216. I have been working as a lawyer since February 217. Although I have never been involved with corporate management, I am committed to fulfilling my roles and the expectations placed on outside Directors by drawing on my experience as a legal expert. Today, corporations are facing the big challenge of not only improving corporate value in pursuit of a greater business scale and larger profit, but creating social value that contributes to the world. The Fujifilm Group has been creating new value through innovation in various lives and industrial fields, thereby contributing to society. The Fujifilm Group s achievement in the medical field to support people s health is one of the major accomplishments. Makoto Kaiami Director (Outside) Of counsel of Sophiacity Law Office 34

37 Corporate Governance In terms of compliance that is to be observed as a public institution of society, such issues as inappropriate accounting at overseas sales subsidiaries of Fuji Xerox and deficiencies in internal control were found. This finding creates the need to review group-wide operations to improve and strengthen the governance system and fully ensure our members are aware about compliance. I feel that Board of Directors of FUJIFILM Holdings Corporation discusses matters in an open and active manner, showing the Company s willingness to positively receive opinions from outside parties. I see it as my role to raise issues and give proper advice to the Board of Directors based on my knowledge and experience relating to law, from a position where I can check the management with outside viewpoints, especially as a legal professional. In order for corporations to achieve sound growth, the important point is that each and every employee works passionately and enthusiastically, being aware that their work has been useful for society. The Fujifilm Group possesses such positive corporate culture, enriching soil for value creation. I am committed to fulfilling my role as a member of the Fujifilm Group with the aim of building a company that will achieve sustainable development with society. Providing support in corporate management through supervision and advice given based on the experience and knowledge accumulated in a financial institution My 4-year service in Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank gave me opportunities to meet various corporations from the position of a financial institution. Among them, I have never found a case like that of the Fujifilm Group. Although the Company once faced the situation where its mainstay products were at risk, it overcame the difficult period and later developed businesses even greater than before. I believe that this is because Fujifilm Group tackled the challenge of restructuring and reform through concerted efforts with the management and employees, realizing its vision through actions full of esprit and vitality. It could not have been achieved without the management s leadership and strong will that each employee had developed voluntarily and independently, with ideas such as we will do it and we want to change like this. This is very proof of the open, fair, and clear corporate culture of the Fujifilm Group, which has been a source of creation of value from innovation. Corporation management is prone to peer pressure even though discussions are made freely and audaciously. This unconscious vulnerability should be mitigated through proper supervision and advice from the viewpoint of external parties such as outside directors to ensure management transparency, thereby leading to stronger governance. Every business of the Fujifilm Group supports the industrial community by providing cutting-edge, proprietary Kunitaro Kitamura Director (Outside) Representative Director of Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Holdings, Inc. Chairman of Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank, Limited technologies and enriches people s lives. When employees truly feel that business growth and development are directly linked with contributions to society, they will find their efforts very rewarding, thereby generating higher motivation. Recently, financial institutions have been expected to fulfill responsibilities to meet consumer needs with a high sense of ethics under the concept of fiduciary duty. I believe that such truly customer-oriented viewpoint is also applied to non-financial institutions. I will give my support in corporate management with the consciousness of such viewpoint. 35

47 Sources of Corporate Value Sources of Corporate Value We believe that our five sources of corporate value Technological Strength, Corporate Culture, Brand Strength, Human Resources and Global Network are essential components for the Fujifilm Group to meet the expectations, needs and reliability of our stakeholders through our business activities. This section shows these five components which support the creation of corporate value. 45

48 Sources of Corporate Value Technological Strength Analog silver halide photographs, a business that the Fujifilm Group has been involved in for many years, consist of various accumulated technologies. Currently, the ratio of photographic film as a percentage of Companywide sales is just under 1%. However, the technologies, which hold competitive advantages, developed from silver halide photographs are still utilized in many businesses in different forms. 1 Competitive Advantages Cultivated in Silver Halide Photographs Photographing Development/Printing Camera Ensuring high-quality design and manufacture of lenses, hardware, and systems Fujifilm began developing lenses shortly after its establishment, and they have been highly rated under the FUJINON brand.

50 Sources of Corporate Value 3 Linking Technology with Growth R&D Reforms in Business Restructuring and Activities of New Business Creation Aiming to create a new business to replace photographic film, for which the market was rapidly shrinking from its peak in 2, the Fujifilm Group has promoted R&D reforms along with business restructuring. In order to build a new growth strategy, we took inventory of our technologies by dividing and organizing new and existing technologies and markets into four quadrants. Based on the results, we selected priority business fields from three viewpoints: being able to use our technologies, future potential for market growth and staying competitive (Figure 1) and concentrated capital expenditures and R&D investment on them. We also continue to invest R&D resources in key growth areas (Figure 2). Regarding the R&D structure, we reorganized one in which laboratories was linked to plants, thereby having the structure remain devided by function. The Company created a vertical structure by establishing Divisional Laboratories under the business divisions to carry out R&D directly linked to each business. At the same time, it also established a horizontal structure to provide, from a Companywide perspective, the necessary technologies to each business by creating Corporate Laboratories to research fundamental technologies, such as material chemistry, imaging, analysis, and production system. Fujifilm has promoted speedy new product development and new business creation to drive growth through a structure whereby the R&D Management Headquarters centrally manages this vertical and horizontal matrix (Figure 3). Further, in August 215, Fujifilm established within the Corporate Planning Division the Innovation & Strategy Planning Division, which consists of management staff responsible for business strategy and technical staff with expertise on the Company s technology, thereby enhancing swift and effective new business creation. Figure 1: Key theme selection at time of restructuring Key themes have been selected after taking an inventory of technologies by dividing and organizing new and existing technologies and markets into four quadrants.

51 Sources of Corporate Value Open innovation for new values by collaboration Fujifilm has opened Open Innovation Hubs in Japan, the U.S. and Europe as places that allow outside business partners to become familiar with Fujifilm s fundamental/core technologies, which are the source of competitiveness of the Fujifilm Group, as well as materials, products and services to which these technologies are applied, and to co-create new value. Since the opening, a total of about 9,8 people from 1,9 companies (as of October 31, 217) have visited the three locations, and collaboration is proceeding in various forms. Further, Fuji Xerox created the Customer Co-creation Laboratory in its R&D center located in Yokohama Japan with the aim of responding to the rapidly changing business environment and the increasingly diversified expectations of our customers. The company introduces to customers case examples in which it worked to resolve its business challenges, then works together with customers to solve their business challenges. Reinforcing information fundamental technologies for advanced ICT that accelerates innovation In April 216, Fujifilm established the Informatics Research Laboratory that engages in the R&D on cutting-edge technologies in the field of information sciences including data analysis and software fundamental technologies, with the aim of building a structure that covers advanced ICT such as the IoT (Internet of Things) and AI (Artificial Intelligence). Further, in order to accelerate groupwide ICT use by combining technologies accumulated to date with new technologies, the Company established the ICT Strategy Management Office in October 216. We will apply ICT not only to create new materials and products, and solution services that respond to IoT society, but also to overall corporate activities such as effective marketing activities based on accurate demand forecast and formation and execution of business plans.

52 Sources of Corporate Value Corporate Culture The Fujifilm Group creates an open, fair and clear corporate culture that allows it to discern objective facts in a sincere and straightforward manner, make rational decisions, and continuously take on challenges with courage in the course of business activities. With this corporate culture, we will further hone our leading-edge, proprietary technologies to remain a vigorous company, consistently creating new value and exercising pioneering leadership. Respect for Human Rights Compliance is the core of the Company s open, fair, and clear corporate culture and respect for basic human rights is the most important aspect of compliance. The Fujifilm Group has clearly stated its commitment to this point in the Fujifilm Group s Charter for Corporate Behavior and Code of Conduct, asking employees to sign the declaration at the end of the Code. We are aware that observing such principles as prohibition of discrimination and harassment, protection of privacy, respect and protection of basic labor rights are essential to truly enhance productivity. We promote understanding of these concepts by periodically holding training seminars on respect for human rights and eliminating discrimination. Charter for Corporate Behavior Fujifilm Group Code of Conduct Occupational Health and Safety / Promotion of Health Creating a workplace where employees can work with vigor and in good health, both physically and mentally this is a basic condition to achieve sustainable growth and development of the Group. Considering that the securing of employees occupational health and safety is the primary issue in our corporate activities, we implement the Occupational Health and Safety Program and prevention measures for workers accidents, especially in the production sites. For health promotion, we established a group-wide health Promotion Council composed of the Fujifilm group. The council has since been working to promote activities focusing on four priority areas: preventing serious lifestyle-related diseases, quitting smoking, mental illness, and preventing overwork. In a high evaluation of these activities, we were recognized as a 217 Certified Health and Productivity Management Organization (Large Enterprise Category) -white 5 in FY217/3. 1.

Environmental Conservation and Protection Brand Strength The FUJIFILM brand has enhanced its value through continuous offer of innovative products and services based on advanced proprietary technologies accumulated in photography. Improving customer satisfaction is one of our efforts. For this purpose, we pay special attention to communicating with our customers at customer centers which are our point of contact with them. We are also building a system that enables us to correctly grasp customers views and link these views to improvements in work processes and product development. Efforts to Raise Customer Satisfaction Fujifilm s businesses cover a wide range of fields, it responds to customer s voices in a way that takes into account the characteristics of each product. Customer proposals and requests collected at customer centers are reported to the relevant departments related to the products to help to improve its products and services and support the development of new products. For example, the Net Print Service System helps improve FAQs with AI (Artificial Intelligence) features on a website, thereby enabling customers to solve issues alone even during the non-business hours of customer centers. At Fuji Xerox, we believe that it is fundamental to place importance on interactive communication with the customers to understand their demands and expectations, and sincerely accept their views and engage in continual improvements. In addition, we have prepared a website that provides employees with information from customers viewpoints. The bilateral communication between customer contact, including sales, maintenance, etc, and the areas of product development, marketing and quality control that the website allows is expected to foster greater customer understanding. 5
