Management Message KATANOZAKA Shinya Chairman of the Board of Directors SHIBATA Koji President & Chief Executive Officer To Our Stakeholders In December of this year, our group will celebrate the historic milestone of the 70th anniversary of our founding. Although the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue, we intend to pursue our group mission statement by looking back to our founding principles and overcoming this crisis and returning to a growth trajectory as soon as possible. A willingness to endeavor in taking on any challenge is part of the ANA Group DNA, which has helped us overcome many difficulties in the past. We aim to become an airline group needed by the people of the world, while we hand our DNA onward to the next generation. 2 3 Management Message SHIBATA Koji President & Chief Executive Officer I am committed to leading the ANA Group to profitability for the first time in three years, returning to growth in the medium term. My name is SHIBATA Koji, and I assumed the position of president & chief executive officer on April 1, 2022. First, I want to thank you, our stakeholders, for your support of the ANA Group. Safety is the foundation of ANA Group management. As we remain focused on safety, we aim to become the airline group of choice by customers around the world, based on our record of security and reliability. During the seven years that my predecessor, Mr. Katanozaka, served as president, my role was to pursue group growth through alliances with overseas airlines and through the execution of corporate strategies. During the first four years, we achieved record-high operating income for four consecutive fiscal years by expanding our interna- tional network, attracting visitors to Japan, and merging our LCC business. During the latter three years, and in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, we implemented decisive and unprecedented reforms, even while protecting employee jobs. In fiscal 2022, I believe my mission is to implement Business Structure Reform in a consistent manner to return the Group to profitability for the first time in three fiscal years. At the same time, we will chart a growth trajectory in the post-COVID-19 era. I am committed to leading the ANA Group to a new stage, responding swiftly to change in an ever-changing business environment. Fiscal 2021 in Review Fiscal 2021 was the second year of the COVID-19 pandemic, fiscal 2019, passenger volume was only 50% for domestic and infections of the Delta and Omicron variants continued flights and 10% for international flights.

And we did so with only two helicopters. From humble beginnings, our employees pooled their wisdom, and through small jobs that included pesticide spraying and aerial pho- tography, these pioneers pursued the dream of opening up new skies with their own hands. The words of our founder, Hardship Now, Yet Hope for the Future, expressed his belief that no matter how severe the hardship, one must not shrink, but rather believe in a brighter future, striving, growing, and hoping for a time when prosperity comes in leaps and bounds. “Hardship Now, Yet Hope for the Future” “Wakyo” (Close Cooperation) Our Stance as Professionals The phrase Wakyo means the belief in harmonizing without necessarily agreeing. We reach Wakyo through genuine discussions and by working together to achieve our goals. In line with the words of MIDORO Masuichi, our first president, we have made the most of diverse personalities to exchange ideas openly. And we have built collective strength as a group through the process of overcoming many adversities. Our second president, OKAZAKI Kaheita, said, “Trust and love are the threads that weave a beautiful world.” The aspiration behind this saying was to create a beautiful world by spreading global harmony woven with trust and love. “Trust and love are the threads that weave a beautiful world” Our Corporate Vision Even in the midst of postwar reconstruction, the founders of our company made it their mission to contribute to the nation and to their community through their busi- ness. They began to take on new challenges, believing in a future in which the aviation industry would be in high demand. A Business with Integrity. A Resolute and Independent Business. A Self-Reliant Business.

In this way, we pursue social and economic value simultaneously. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, we continue to implement initiatives under Business Structure Reform, and we plan to create our next ANA Group medium-term corporate strategy by the end of fiscal 2022.

To respond to these changes, the ANA Group created Business Structure Reform in October 2020, under which we have pursued various reforms. We continue to pursue a vari- ety of measures such as aircraft and human resources. These ongoing efforts include optimizing the Air Transportation Business portfolio and introducing new service models tai- lored to the new normal. Amid these circumstances, we plan to accelerate our response toward the post-COVID-19 era in fiscal 2022. At the same time, we aim to increase top-line revenues in our pas- senger businesses, striving to deliver bottom-line profit and generate free cash flow for the first time in three years.

President & Chief Executive Officer ALL NIPPON AIRWAYS CO., LTD. In fiscal 2022, the ANA Group will work with undaunted deter- mination, pursuing our mission to return to full-year profitability and accelerating efforts to establish a business structure capa- ble of generating sustainable and stable profits. Based on a firm platform of safe flight operations, we will assess insights from customers and maximize revenues, continuing unrelenting cost controls. This year also happens to be the 70th anniversary of ANA, and we are engaged in efforts to establish a sustainable business structure with a view to the next 70 to 100 years. In fiscal 2022, the third year of the COVID-19 pandemic, travel sentiment on domestic flights has shown signs of recov- ery following the lifting of priority preventative measures. At the same time, demand on international flights is recovering rapidly in the wake of easing border measures and increased trilateral passenger demand. Our multi-brand strategy through ANA and Peach will maximize earnings through an optimized sharing of roles. Air cargo demand remains stable due to the impact of ocean transportation congestion and other factors. We aim to strengthen profitability through the best mix of passenger and cargo businesses. In services, we plan to deepen marketing strategy based in customer experience value, responding to customer needs from a customer-in mindset built on synergies between self- service and digitalization and enhanced human services. And we will continue to reduce fixed costs and improve productivity through the use of digital technologies, all while we maintain cost structure reforms at current speeds. Our response to ESG management, particularly with regard to decarbonization, encompasses national and inter-industry cooperation as we aim to achieve our medium-term targets. The title of this section includes the phrase Modern Samurai. This company, which began with only two helicopters 70 years ago, has always taken on challenges by being A Business with Integrity, A Resolute and Independent Business, and A Self-Reliant Business. In today’s terms, we are a group that embodies diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), embracing diverse ways of thinking to work together to achieve a single direction in contributing to the world through engagement, passion, and determination. In this 70th anniversary year, we will return to the foundations of ANA, striving as one to work through this difficult situation. 30 Although the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continued throughout fiscal 2021, we captured the phased recovery in passenger demand and robust cargo demand to the greatest extent possible. As a result, Air Transportation Business operating revenues amounted to ¥885.0 billion, an increase of 46.5% year on year, while operating loss amounted to ¥162.9 billion, compared with operating loss of ¥447.8 billion in the previous fiscal year. Our fiscal 2022 plan for the Air Transportation Business calls for operating revenues of ¥1,470.0 billion and operating income of ¥52.0 billion. We aim to grow our top line, expanding capacity in a flexible manner as demand recovers. ANA International Passenger Business Recovering capacity in a flexible manner in conjunction with easing travel restrictions in Japan and around the world ANA International Passenger Business Results Revenues ASK RPK (Index) Fiscal 2017 = 100 125 100 75 50 25 0 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 (FY) 32 12 11 Resumption of Airbus A380 FLYING HONU Service (Narita–Honolulu) Fiscal 2021 in Review Passenger demand remained significantly weak due to the reemergence of COVID-19 infections and the outbreak of mutant variants. However, business demand, mainly related to overseas assignments, return trips to Japan, and a recovery in demand in connections from Asia to North America resulted in the shift of certain North American routes from Haneda to Narita Airport in July. In this way, we made efforts to select flexible routes and establish extra flights. In March 2022, we suspended operations on the Haneda–London and Paris routes due to the Russia–Ukraine crisis. We continued opera- tions on the Haneda–Frankfurt and Narita–Brussels routes, bypassing the airspace over Russia. In terms of sales and services, we launched Face Express on certain routes to and from Narita Airport in July. Face Express is a new boarding procedure based on facial recogni- tion technology. In February 2022, for certain routes departing from Japan, we introduced ANA Travel Ready, a service that facilitates boarding by allowing passengers to register and confirm their travel documents online in advance. These are just a few examples of our efforts to improve convenience that will continue into the future. As a result, passenger numbers for the ANA International Passenger Business in fiscal 2021 was 0.82 million (up 93.2% year on year), and operating revenues amounted to ¥70.1 billion (up 56.8%). Fiscal 2022 Business Policies As travel restrictions ease around the world and transition to a with-COVID-19 era, passenger demand in Japan is shifting into a recovery phase in the wake of the gradual relaxation of entry restrictions beginning in March 2022. We will closely monitor the status of border control measures in each country and capture business demand, which is recovering ahead of other types of demand, as aggressively as possible. We will also capture demand for connections between Asia and North America. At the same time, we will strengthen efforts to gain leisure demand on Hawaii routes and for passengers visiting Japan. We plan to recover capacity through a flexible approach to resuming or adding flight operations, while holding down increases in operating costs. These measures will include switching cargo flights operated using passenger aircraft to passenger flights according to passenger demand trends. 31 Air Transportation Business ANA Domestic Passenger Business ANA Cargo and Mail Business Maximizing revenues by utilizing wide-body aircraft to increase ASK and capture steadily recovering demand Maximizing the use of freighters and passenger aircraft (belly), strengthening efforts to improve profitability Fiscal 2021 in Review Passenger demand on domestic flights was sluggish over the first half of the year due to repeated state of emergency dec- larations. After the lifting of the declarations in the third quar- ter, we saw a trend toward recovery. However, demand declined again in the fourth quarter due to the emergence of the Omicron variant. As demand fluctuated depending on the number of infections, we endeavored to maximize marginal profit by adjusting the scale of operations flexibly, while adding extra flights on weekends, during the year-end and New Year holidays, and during spring break to capture recovering demand. During the winter schedule beginning October 31, we transferred some flights to Peach to optimize the route network for the entire Group. In terms of sales and services, we improved comfort by introducing Boeing 787-9 aircraft for domestic routes in December, featuring an upgraded specification that included new seats with personal monitors. In addition, we captured demand through a boarding campaign and in-flight services tied to the animated TV series Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. We also introduced two special-livery aircraft featuring characters from the anime. As a result, passenger numbers for the ANA Domestic Passenger Business in fiscal 2021 amounted to 17.95 million (up 41.9% year on year), and operating revenues amounted to ¥279.8 billion (up 37.8%). Fiscal 2022 Business Policies Since March 2022 and the lifting of priority preventative mea- sures, demand has been recovering for both business and leisure travel. We began using the domestic-specification Boeing 777 aircraft, which had been out of service since February 2021, in late June 2022 after conducting the necessary repair work to ensure safety. As with-COVID-19 is becoming a part of daily life, we will capture as much demand as possible for leisure travel and return trips that will increase during the summer season.

We captured this demand for the transportation of automobile-related compo- nents, semiconductors, electronic devices, and vaccines and other pharmaceuticals. We introduced the Narita–Los Angeles route to our network in April, the Narita–Hong Kong and Narita–Taipei routes in October, and the Narita–Qingdao route in November. These routes made the most of the Boeing 777F and other cargo- only aircraft (freighters). In addition, we endeavored to capture 0 strong demand by using passenger aircraft for cargo flights when needed. As a result, ANA International Cargo volume in fiscal 2021 was 0.976 million tons (up 49.1% year on year), and operating revenues amounted to a record high ¥328.7 billion (up 104.8%). Fiscal 2022 Business Policies Our plan assumes that the supply–demand balance will gradu- ally ease over the second half of the year and beyond. This trend will reflect the resumption of passenger flights and an easing in ocean transport congestion. We plan to maintain and improve profitability by continuing to make maximum use of freighters while also establishing extra cargo flights using passenger air- craft to secure capacity. We also plan to strengthen sales initia- tives to capture high-unit-price products and large-lot demand. Boeing 777F Aircraft Cooperating in the Transport of COVID-19 Vaccines Beginning in February 2021, ANA began transporting Pfizer’s COVID- 19 vaccine on the international route from Belgium in Europe to Japan via DHL Global Forwarding Japan K.K. Existing guidelines were upgraded for transportation at –70°C, and we increased dry ice load- ing to ensure transport volume and guarantee quality. Since June 2021, we have been cooperating in the international transportation of COVID-19 vaccines from Japan to various parts of Asia. In addition to international transportation, we also provided air transportation for vaccines within Japan, mainly to remote islands. We will continue to cooperate in the transport and supply of COVID-19 vaccines, taking all possible measures to contrib- ute to the rapid abatement of infections and to help create a society in which people live with peace of mind. 32 33 Business Strategy Air Transportation Business Non-Air Businesses Stepping up efforts to establish a new earnings pillar next to the Air Transportation Business, focusing on leveraging customer data assets LCC (Peach Aviation) Airline Related Aggressively expanding domestic route network to capture more leisure and VFR* demand Fiscal 2021 in Review We opened the Kansai–Memanbetsu route in our network in July and the Fukuoka–Ishigaki route in October. We con- tinued to monitor the impact of the state of emergency declarations and priority preventative measures. In August, we began code-sharing and mileage partnership between Peach and ANA on certain routes out of Narita and Chubu airports, expanding options for ANA Brand customers and improving convenience. Beginning with the winter schedule, we transferred certain routes from ANA to Peach. In this way, we worked to improve profitability while pursuing an optimal Air Transportation Business portfolio for the Group as a whole. In terms of sales and services, we conducted several campaigns to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Peach flight service on March 1, 2022. These campaigns included sales, limited-edition goods, and special events with col- laborating companies. We also introduced the Tabi Kuji ticket, which offers travelers a random destination available via in-flight sales and special vending machines. The Tabi Kuji ticket incorporates Peach points to be used for airline tickets purchases to designated destinations, special mis- sions at destinations, etc. With this new tool, we endeav- ored to build demand through new travel experiences that introduce an element of chance in destinations. As a result, LCC passenger numbers in fiscal 2021 amounted to 4.26 million (up 105.1% year on year), and operating revenues totaled to ¥37.8 billion (up 71.3%). Fiscal 2022 Business Policies We will improve aircraft utilization and expand our domestic route network by increasing flights during early morning and late-night time slots. In addition, we intend to improve con- venience through a redesign of the Peach app, strengthen- ing our efforts to capture leisure and VFR demand by leveraging the effects of flight schedules formulated jointly with ANA. Meanwhile, international flights have been suspended since April 2021. Operations on the Kansai–Incheon route are resumed at the end of August 2022. Going forward, we will resume flights gradually on routes where we anticipate demand recovery, taking into account the regulatory situation in each country.

However, the decline in transaction volume for systems development work due to investment restraints within the group resulted in operating revenues of ¥206.8 billion (down 6.9% year on year) and an operating loss of ¥0.6 billion (compared with operating income of ¥3.6 billion in the previous fiscal year). With the easing of travel restrictions in Japan and other countries in fiscal 2022, we expect a gradual recovery in the number of flights operated, including those by overseas airlines. We plan to pursue efforts to recover and strengthen profitability, mainly through contracts for ground handling and other services.

In addition, domestic travel volume declined compared to the previous fiscal year, when the Go To Travel Campaign was in place and had a positive impact (¥ Billions) on performance. On the other hand, the transfer of digital marketing and other functions from within the group led to an increase in contract revenues, resulting in operating revenues of ¥46.2 billion (up 2.7% year on year) and an operating loss of ¥2.1 billion (compared with an operating loss of ¥5.0 billion in the previous fiscal year). We will strengthen our efforts in fiscal 2022 to generate businesses that leverage customer data, driven by ANA X Inc.

Trade and Retail A New Form of Travel via Tabi Kuji In fiscal 2021, the gradual recovery in passenger demand Trade and Retail: Operating Revenues led to sales increases at ANA FESTA, airport retail stores. In addition, we saw an increase in transaction volume in our electronics business in response to strong demand in the semiconductor market. As a result, operating revenues amounted to ¥81.6 billion (up 2.2% year on year), while operating income came to ¥549 million (compared with an operating loss of ¥4.2 billion in the previous fiscal year). Passenger demand in fiscal 2022 is recovering on domestic routes in response to the easing of travel restric- tions and other factors. We will work to improve profitability further, focusing on the airport retail business.

We began transporting medical supplies (masks, protective clothing, hygiene products, and pharmaceuticals) in early fiscal 2020. Thereafter, we loaded cargo in passenger aircraft and expanded freighter opera- tions (cargo-only flights) to meet supply chain needs of customers, particularly in the automo- tive, semiconductor, e-commerce, and pharmaceutical industries, where cargo movement is very active. By maximizing capacity using the ANA Group fleet of 11 freighters (two B777-F and nine B767-300F) and capturing strong cargo demand, we posted a record high for international cargo operating revenues in fiscal 2021. We expect cargo demand to continue to be strong, particularly for automobiles and semiconductors. And we also assume that the supply- demand balance will remain tight for the foreseeable future. In this way, the ANA Group contributes to society, supporting daily lives and corporate activi- ties by maintaining supply chains for various industries, including emergency transportation of COVID-19 vaccines and other pharmaceuticals and medical equipment. The ANA Group Cargo Business Model: Strengths of a Combination Carrier The ANA Group is the only combination carrier in Japan that owns both passenger and freighter aircraft. We seek to improve profits by taking advantage of our strengths in transporting oversize cargo using our 11-freighter fleet and our extensive network of passenger flights to schedule flight routes flexibly and adjust supply in response to demand trends. 1 Leveraging the Strengths of a Combination Carrier through Passenger and Freighter Aircraft Passenger Aircraft (Belly) Freighters Targets Routes Products Small and Medium Size Market Medium and Large Market Extensive Network and Number of Flights Fresh Foods, Pharmaceuticals, Small-Lot Cargo Complementary Network Balance Oversize and Special Cargo Revenue Maximization Increase Revenues from Passenger Flights Increase Revenues Using Freighters 2 Use Wide-Body Freighters to Secure Highly Profitable Supply Volume between Japan and North America Passenger Flights Passenger Flights Asia / China Japan North America B767-300F Freighters B777-F Freighters While we secure supply between Japan and Asia using abundant belly space on passenger flights and B767-300F, we supple- ment routes between Japan and North America, where supply is short on passenger belly space alone, using B777-F. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have scheduled more flights than before the pandemic since demand is particularly strong on North American routes.

In addition, we are pursuing initiatives to secure stable revenues over the medium term in anticipation of a future easing in supply–demand balance. 1 Measures to Increase Revenues during the COVID-19 Pandemic 1. Consolidate Freighters in Narita Improve operational efficiency by having freighters operate to/from Narita Airport (the Okinawa hub is transitioning to a new model utilizing cargo space on passenger flights) 2.

The introduction is scheduled for fiscal 2028 or later. The B777-8F is a state-of-the-art wide-body freighter that boasts the largest cargo capacity of any twin-engine aircraft. At the same time, this aircraft features reduced fuel consumption, CO2 emissions, and operating costs per ton compared to conventional aircraft. © Boeing 38 International Cargo Agent, Tokyo Area We have enjoyed a long relationship with ANA Cargo, and over the past two years of the pandemic, we have become even stronger cooperative partners. The number of international cargo flights, flexible aircraft operations, network, and service quality remained stable throughout the pandemic, and ANA has been indispensable in maintaining supply chains while meeting shipper demands. The outlook for materials procurement, packaging, production, etc., has been uncertain, and the volume of cargo being shipped remains unstable. However, ANA Cargo, which operates both freighter and pas- senger flights over a large network of direct flights from Japan, has been very convenient for us. The manager we work with offers proposals tailored to our specific situation, which I find very reassuring. And while instabilities, such as the situation in Ukraine and the port strike on the west coast of the U.S., are likely to continue, we believe ANA Cargo will be an indispensable and important partner in maintaining supply chains across every industry. 39 Business Strategy Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation The ANA Group strives to resolve social issues through our business activities to continue to grow together with society. We pursue our ideal future from a medium- to long-term perspec- tive, aiming to create sustainable societies and enhance corporate value as we implement our strategies steadily and from a global viewpoint. Toward Carbon Neutrality ANA is building a foundation for Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) procurement as we serve as a model of decarbonization to society. In 2021, we launched the SAF Flight Initiative, and in 2022, we established ACT FOR SKY to accelerate our efforts toward net zero CO2 emissions by fiscal 2050. 40 41 ANA Group ESG Management The ANA Group pursues ESG management that considers the environment, society, and gov- ernance from a global and long-term perspective transcending the boundaries of the group. In this way, we contribute to resolving environmental and social issues through our busi- nesses and continue to create value that will be an indispensable part of society in the future. Through ESG-conscious business strategies, we create social value and economic value simultaneously, and we embody the ANA Group Mission Statement, “Built on a foundation of security and trust, the wings within ourselves help to fulfill the hopes and dreams of an interconnected world.” Creating Social Value and Economic Value in Parallel For the ANA Group to create value sustainably, we must respond to long-term needs from a global perspective that includes environ- mental and social issues (creation of social value), as well as implement strategies in both business and finance areas (creation of eco- nomic value). To this end, we have identified and defined material issues to use as guidelines for ESG management. These material issues are topics of common targets for three approaches: Social trends, mission statement and corporate strategy, and ANA Group strengths. In addition, addressing these material issues is indispensable for short-term decision-making in these uncertain times. They also serve as useful concepts for setting medium- and long-term goals. Further, these material issues are consistent with issues we address on an ongoing basis under the ANA Group Management Vision and the ANA Group Mission Statement. At the same time, these issues represent matters we must tackle head-on when formulating Business Structure Reform measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and when discussing future medium-term management strategies. Our strengths lie in the spirit of challenge, comprehensive capabilities, group quality, and strong relationships with shareholders— strengths cultivated through a history of hard work and taking on all challenges. Leveraging these strengths and addressing material issues, we strive to create sustainable societies and improve corporate value as an airline group that creates value needed for society in our own unique way. 42 Identification of Materiality We identified four material issues from the three perspectives of social trends, mission statement and corporate strategy, and ANA Group strengths: (1) Environment; (2) Human Rights; (3) Regional Revitalization; and (4) Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). We mapped the identified issues on two axes, one representing the impact on group business (management axis) and one representing the impact on the environment and society (society axis). We assigned a level of concern along the society axis, with those matters having a high level of importance and impact identified as material issues. To scrutinize whether material issues were consistent with global affairs and the environment as discussed in our corporate strategy, we continue to confirm suitability through discussions and information gathering with internal and external stakeholders. We also engage in an ongoing process to identify any new material issues.

Through dialogue with stakeholders, we are able to understand the latest social needs and changing interests and use this to evaluate the impact on busi- ness and society. We then incorporate this information into our management strategies and initiatives. We disclose our progress on our corporate website and through other channels as necessary. At the same time, based on infor- mation we disclose, we engage in deeper dialogue with our stakeholders. We also report our progress and confirm the appropriateness of our initia- tives in those discussions. Through a cycle of dialogue, initiatives, and information disclosure, we promote ESG management focusing on material issues to enhance corpo- rate value and contribute to achieving sustainable societies.

This com- mittee, which operates under the guidance of the president and under the chairmanship of the director in charge of group ESG management (CEPO: Chief ESG Promotion Officer), consists of ANA HOLDINGS INC. and group directors, group company executive officers, and the full-time Audit & Supervisory Board members of ANA HOLDINGS INC. The committee discusses core policies and measures related to ESG management. In addition, important issues directly related to management are submitted to the Group Management Committee and reported to the Board of Directors and the Audit & Supervisory Board. Based on these regulations, each Group company has appointed an ESG Promotion Officer (EPO) as the person responsible for promoting ESG management and participates as a member of the Group ESG Management Promotion Committee, and each Group company and department has an ESG Promotion Leader (EPL) to lead the ESG activities of their respective organization. Matters discussed, resolved, and reported at the Board of Directors, Group Management Committee, and Group ESG Management Promotion Committee are shared and implemented throughout the entire Group in close collaboration with EPOs and EPLs. We also hold EPL meetings twice a year to share information in a compre- hensive manner and promote initiatives at each Group company and department.

In order to keep CO2 emissions below fiscal 2019 levels in 2030, we will work toward operational improvements and techno- logical innovations for aircraft and other equipment. In addition, we will complete replacement of at least 10% of fuel with SAF by 2030, and will convert our aviation fuel almost entirely to low-carbon fuels by 2050. For CO2 that cannot be completely eliminated through transitioning to low-carbon fuels, we will use negative emissions technologies (NETs) to remove CO2, aiming for carbon neutrality without relying on emissions trading. Basic Approach The ANA Group has introduced the ANA Group Environmental Principles and the ANA Group Environmental Policies, working to reduce our environmental impact. We recognize that efforts to reduce our environmental impact and the conservation of biodiversity are important environ- mental problems, and we are working to promote these through our business activities in recognition that they are management issues. Progress and FY2021 Results: ANA Group 2050 Long-Term Environmental Goals and 2030 Medium-Term Environmental Targets In 2021, we declared that we will achieve carbon neutrality by fiscal 2050 in our 2050 Long-Term Environmental Goals, and we formulated the 2030 Medium-Term Environmental Targets as a roadmap for achieving this goal. We will promote initiatives to reduce our environmental impact on both the medium and long term, using our fiscal 2019 results as a benchmark and monitoring their progress every year.

As of the end of March 2022, 74.6% of the Group’s aircraft (of jet aircraft) is fuel-efficient aircraft. Furthermore, a final purchase agreement has been signed for the introduction of Boeing 737-8 aircraft, scheduled for fiscal 2025 and thereafter. © Boeing Aircraft manufacturers are currently developing technologies to fly on hydrogen and electricity, and the ANA Group is B737-8 A320neo 2 Shift to Low-Carbon Aviation Fuel, Including Utilizing SAF SAF is highly valued in positively contributing to the environment and so the ANA Group has placed its use at the center of our mea- sures to reduce aircraft CO2 emissions. However, a large gap exists between the global demand for jet fuel and the current supply of SAF. The stable supply of SAF is therefore an imminent challenge. To support the development of domestic SAF production, we have been participating since 2011 in a project run by the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO). Since then, we have been working to build a supply chain and promote the development and manufacture of SAF in anticipation of increasing demand for the fuel. 48 2021 • Our carbon recycling business model* was selected by the Ministry of the Environment for the “FY2021 Project to Promote the Creation of Circular Carbon Society Model through CO2 Recycling,” and we launched a demonstration project in September in collaboration with Toshiba Energy Systems & Solutions Corporation, Toshiba Corporation, Toyo Engineering Corporation, Idemitsu Kosan Co., Ltd., and Japan CCS Co., Ltd. • Participated in the Japanese government’s study group on carbon neutrality by 2050 for the purpose of building a supply chain and manufacturing SAF in Japan • Launched the SAF Flight Initiative: For the Next Generation (See next page for details) • Established ACT FOR SKY, a cross-industrial voluntary organization, to commercialize, promote, and expand the use of SAF produced in Japan 2022 • Participated in the Public-Private Council to Promote the Introduction of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), which promotes the development and manufacture of SAF produced in Japan, discusses issues and solutions for the establishment of a supply chain, and promotes unified public–private action * Carbon recycling business model: Power to Chemicals (P2C) is a carbon recycling technology that uses renewable energy and renewable hydrogen to recycle CO2 into highly valuable materials that positively contribute to the environment. This not only reduces CO2 emissions but also contributes greatly to the expansion of renewable energy. Dissemination throughout society ACT FOR SKY On March 2, 2022, we jointly established ACT FOR SKY, a in cooperation with various stakeholders, aiming for the devel- voluntary organization working for the commercialization, opment of Japan’s airline networks and the industry as a promotion, and expansion of SAF produced in Japan, along- whole, as well as the realization of a sustainable society. side JGC HOLDINGS CORPORATION, REVO International Inc., and Japan Airlines Co., Ltd. As global SAF demand grows, a stable supply of domesti- cally produced SAF is considered essential in Japan. However, domestically produced SAF has not been commer- cialized yet, and there is an urgent need to establish a stable supply chain from procurement to SAF supply. ACT FOR SKY, with “ACT” representing the cross-industry cooperation and collaboration by companies committed to taking action for these goals, aims to promote behavioral change through transforming the awareness among citizens and companies, while appealing to the importance of SAF, carbon neutrality, and achieving a circular economy. Since its establishment with 16 founding companies, more and more companies have come to participate in the organi- zation. ACT FOR SKY will work to promote and expand SAF 49 Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation Environment New Initiatives Utilizing SAF SAF Flight Initiative In October 2021, we launched SAF Flight Initiative: For the Next Generation, a new program to work with customers to reduce CO2 emissions in the industrial value chain, becoming the first in Asia to take this action. By utilizing SAF, we will con- tribute to the reduction of CO2 emissions (Scope 3) by our customers in their cargo transportation, employee business trips, etc., while aiming to improve the corpo- rate value of each company involved and to achieve the mass production and promotion of SAF, creating a virtuous cycle for the economy and the environment. More details on the project, please refer to: https://www.ana.co.jp/en/jp/brand/ana-future-promise/saf-flight-initiative/ 3 Use of Emission Trading Schemes Emission trading schemes (purchase of carbon credits) represent one of the available methods to offset CO2 emissions in the overall global environment. We intend to use it as a short- to medium-term measure during the period when CO2 emissions cannot be fully reduced through the implementation of the aforementioned initiatives. In the long term, we aim to achieve carbon neutrality without relying on emission trading schemes. 4 Utilization of Negative Emissions Technologies (NETs) Reduce CO2 Emissions from All Non-Aircraft Flight Operations The ANA Group implements appropriate energy management under the Act of the Rational Use of Energy of the Ministry of using our energy management system ANA Eiims based on Economy, Trade and Industry (METI). ANA has achieved S our own Energy Management Standard. We reduced CO2 Class certification for six consecutive years since the estab- emissions by 2% in fiscal 2021 compared to the previous lishment of this class system. To achieve net zero CO2 non- fiscal year. ANA and ANA Foods Co., Ltd. (Specified Business aircraft emissions by fiscal 2050, we will work to reduce Operators under the Act on the Rational Use of Energy) energy consumption by fiscal 2030, focusing on the use of achieved their target of annual energy reduction of at least 1% electricity and vehicle fuel (gasoline and diesel fuel), which in their fiscal 2020 results. As a result, they received the accounts for the majority of our total emissions. Excellence in Energy Efficiency Award (S Class) certification We will systematically upgrade our facilities and equipment to energy-saving devices. ANA Blue Base, the ANA Group comprehensive training center, ANA Tonomachi Business Center, and ANA TELEMART Nagasaki Branch Call Center have installed solar panels, and generate electricity from solar power. In addition, Electricity since fiscal 2020, some of our own facilities in the Osaka and Kyushu areas have been purchasing an amount of CO2-free energy from electric power companies. Since fiscal 2022, we have been introducing renewable energy and started use at our Shiodome Office. We are now working to introduce renewable energy across the ANA Group. Solar Panels at ANA Blue Base Vehicle Fuel In addition to deepening energy-saving measures, we are gradually upgrading our airport vehicles to hybrid vehicles (HVs), electric vehicles (EVs), and fuel cell vehicles (FCVs). We will make the switch to EVs and FCVs from all vehicles (ones that use gasoline) by fiscal 2030. The ANA Group plans to neutralize 1% of CO2 emitted by Climeworks in March 2022 to evaluate the potential purchase aircraft operations by 2030 and 10% by 2050 through utilizing of high-quality, permanent carbon removal via Climeworks, We promote the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle) and are working to reduce our resources waste ratio. We encourage use Negative Emissions Technologies (NETs) such as direct air service in the near future. reduction and recycling, especially of plastics and paper. 2 Reduce Resource Waste Ratio (Plastics, Paper, etc.) capture* and storage (DAC+S) that actively remove historic ANA will continue to promote the decarbonization and and residual CO2 emissions from the atmosphere. sustainability of the aviation industry. In addition, the ANA Group also plans to utilize air-captured CO2 as a raw material for aviation fuel. As a first step in this process, we signed a Memorandum of Understanding with * Direct air capture (DAC): Technology to capture CO2 directly from the atmosphere. Climeworks AG Climeworks empowers people to reverse climate change by perma- nently removing carbon dioxide from the air. One of two things happens to the Climeworks air-captured carbon dioxide: either it is returned to earth, stored safely and permanently away for millions of years, or it is upcycled into climate-friendly products such as carbon-neutral fuels and materials. The Climeworks direct air capture technology runs exclusively on clean energy, and the modular CO2 collectors can be stacked to build machines of any capacity. 50 Reduce the Use of Plastics We are progressively replacing plastic products used in airport lounges and on flights with eco-friendly materials. Since August 2021, we have changed the containers for economy class in-flight meals on international flights to plant-derived materials, resulting in a reduction of approximately 317 tons of disposable plastic (compared to fiscal 2019). In addition, as of October 2021, we no longer provide plastic bags for baggage packaging used at airports, resulting in a reduction of approximately 94 tons of disposal plastic per year. Reduce Paper Resources We are taking a number of actions to reduce paper resources. As an example, from April 2021, the ANA Group’s in-flight magazine TSUBASA -GLOBAL WINGS- and maga- zines and newspapers for in-flight services have been replaced with a new service that allows customers to use them on their own digital devices through the ANA app. 51 Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation Environment 3 Reduce Food Waste Ratio (In-Flight / Airport Lounge Meals, etc.) 4 Conserve Biodiversity The ANA Group is working to reduce our food waste ratio such as in-flight meals. Reduce Food Waste Ratio In-Flight and at Domestic Airport Lounges We recognize that addressing biodiversity is an important environmental issue and have been taking actions toward biodiversity conservation since 2004. In addition, since May 2022 we have been supporting the World Wildlife Fund (WWF)’s environmental conservation activities and promoting biodiversity conservation activities as a corporate member of WWF Japan. When it comes to loading in-flight meals, we check the number of reservations up to the last minute before departure, working Organizing Seminars to Eradicate Wildlife Trafficking to ensure that as little as possible is wasted on each flight to the extent that it does not affect on-time operations. Food Loss Initiatives As an initiative against food loss, we utilize food waste generated in cooking. ANA Catering Service Co., Ltd. (ANAC), which manufactures in-flight meals for ANA, recycles 100% of food waste from the cooking process into compost and animal feed. As a recycling initiative using this waste effectively in-house, soft kale grown using compost derived from cooking food waste generated at ANAC’s Narita factory is provided in salads served in economy class on international flights from March 2022. This soft kale is in salads provided on flights departing from Japan, excluding flights to mainland China, Taipei, Hong Kong, Manila, Seoul, and late-night flights. We will continue to make effective use of recycling mechanisms for cooking food waste recycling system and contribute to the achievement of the SDGs. Cooking food waste generated at the factory Served in in-flight meals Collecting food waste Cooking Food Waste Recycling System Growing soft kale using compost Initiatives to Reduce Environmental Impact Carbon Offset Program Since fiscal 2019, the ANA Group offers the ANA Carbon Offset Program for each class on domestic and international routes. This program is a mechanism that provides customers with opportunities to offset the amount of CO2 emitted by their aircraft. We select offset programs that meet global certification standards. For more details on the project, please refer to: https://www.ana.bluedotgreen.co.jp/en/home Eco-First Certified Company In 2008, ANA became the first in the transportation industry and the first airline to become a certified Eco-First Company. We received this honor in recognition of our environmental initiatives and corpo- rate stance that emphasizes social responsibility, and are working toward achieving a sustainable society. In March 2022, we updated our Eco-First Promise for protecting the global environment as an environmentally advanced company to reflect our medium- and long-term environmental goals.

With the support of the Ministry of the Environment, Okinawa Prefecture, and Onna Village, we work to plant coral seedlings and conduct educational activi- ties in and outside Okinawa Prefecture alongside local stakeholders. Mile donations from ANA Mileage Club members help pay for coral seedling costs and activity expenses, with a cumulative total of around 4,000 participants helping to plant 16,106 seedlings. Planting Coral Seedlings Natural Heritage Sites Since fiscal 2017, we have supported the registration of Amami Oshima Island, Tokunoshima Island, the northern part of Okinawa Island, and Iriomote Island as World Natural Heritage sites. Here, we mainly engage in volunteering by group employees who help to remove invasive plant species that significantly harm the ecosystem within Yambaru National Park, like bitter vine, under the direction of rangers from the Ministry of the Environment. Since fiscal 2021, we have also been providing new support for the preservation of the Iriomote Cat in western Iriomote Island. ANA Forest of the Heart Project As part of volunteer activities by group employees across Japan, we have been carrying out the ANA Forest of the Heart Project since July 2012 in Minami Sanriku, Miyagi Prefecture, to support recon- struction and forest conservation. We aim to regenerate forests through appropriate thinning and stew- ardship, and the thinned wood is commercialized and sold at local mills. Invasive Plant Removal Volunteers Deer Repellent Work (Protecting Bark) Information Disclosure on Responding to Climate Change CDP We disclose information on corporate strategies for CO2 emissions and climate change.

At its meetings, which are held four times a year, members discuss important policies and measures related to environmental issues, including climate change, and monitor progress toward targets. Under the committee, we have also established the Eco-First Subcommittee (related to aircraft operations) and the Ground Energy Subcommittee (related to ground energy other than aircraft operations), which report and discuss CO2 reduction measures, initiatives, and progress. Important matters related to corporate strategy are discussed at the Group Management Committee and submitted to the Board of Directors. Furthermore, in order to realize sustainable growth as a company and enhance corporate value over the medium to long term, the status of promotion of ESG management is objectively and multilaterally monitored. Here, we employ evaluation indicators such as CO2 emissions volume and external ESG evaluation indicators, which are also reflected in officer remuneration. Risk Management Based on the basic policies determined by the Board of Directors, the ANA Group Total Risk Management Regulations provide the basic terms of the group’s risk management system. Under these regulations, the Group ESG Management Promotion Committee develops, implements, and monitors progress of basic policies. 54 55 Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation Material Issues Human Rights 1 Respect human rights 2 Engage in responsible procurement Basic Approach The ANA Group has a wide range of business operations which involve various risks to human rights. The ANA Group is committed to upholding human rights in accordance with the global standards provided in the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. In April 2016, we established the ANA Group Policy on Human Rights. We based this policy on the International Bill of Human Rights (the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the two International Covenants), the International Labour Organization Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, the Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact, and the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. In fiscal 2020, we reviewed our existing procurement policy and formulated a new ANA Group Procurement Policy con- sisting of the Basic Procurement Policy and the Supplier Code of Conduct. We continue to encourage our contractors and suppliers to adopt similar policies. We continue to encourage our contractors and suppliers to adopt similar policies. We will continue human rights initiatives, recognizing that respect for human rights lies at the very foundations of the philoso- phy of the SDGs. Issuing the Human Rights Report The ANA Group issued our first Human Rights Report in Japan in fiscal 2018, aiming to promote communication with stakeholders through active dissemination of our initiatives to respect human rights. The Group has continued to issue these reports since then. Human Rights Report 2020 https://www.ana.co.jp/group/en/csr/effort/pdf/Human_Rights_Report_2020_e.pdf Expert Review Since fiscal 2016, the ANA Group has held regular annual discussions with international human rights experts to obtain advice on ANA Group initiatives to respect human rights. In October 2021, we invited three human rights experts from the Institute for Human Rights and Business*1 and World Benchmarking Alliance*2 to evaluate the progress of the initiatives set forth by the ANA Group given the advice received in fiscal 2020. The experts advised us on the importance of reliable stakeholder engage- ment and direct dialogue, as well as the importance of initiatives that connect human rights with the environment, and collabo- ration with other companies and industry groups that effect significant change. *1 Institute for Human Rights and Business (IHRB): An international think tank working in the field of business and human rights and leading efforts in this area.

In addition, in 2015 we made the ANA Group Diversity and Inclusion Promise (D&I Promise) and worked with D&I as one pillar of our management strategy since then. However, from April 2022 we began to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), which now includes equity, and are deepening our actions. More details are available on page 74.

Today, we are building a foundation for the appropriate allocation of management resources and nimble decision-making. Turning Ideas from Employees into New Services and Businesses Environmentally friendly in-flight meals, direct air transport of fresh food from local production areas, tote bags made from upcycled mechanic work clothes, and the launch of a store that communicates the charms of local communities. These are just a few examples of the services and businesses that have emerged from the ideas of employees who have taken on new challenges and turned them into reality. And the starting point is always the Power of People who are willing to endeavor. 64 65 65 Safety Strengthening Safety as a Business Foundation, Passing Down Safety as a Culture Building Stronger Sustainable Structures for Safety Safety is the unequivocal mission of every business in the ANA Group. Solid Approach to Safety Safety is the absolute value underlying every ANA Group corporate activity and the foundation of everything we do. Our dedication to safety extends to every part of our group businesses, even beyond our aircraft operations, including cargo, food services, and information. Our everyday efforts to improve safety and our conscientious response to customer expectations build confidence and trust with society. An environment of mutual understanding and trust form relationships among employees across various job descriptions to support safe aircraft operations and other aspects of the ANA Group business. In every workplace, we post the ANA Group Safety Principles and Course of ANA Group Safety Action, which are pledges shared by all ANA Group employees. ANA Group Safety Principles Safety is our promise to the public and is the foundation of our business. Course of ANA Group Safety Action (1) Strictly observe rules & regulations, and all actions will be grounded on safety. (2) As a professional, place safety as the #1 priority while keeping your health in mind. Safety is assured by an integrated management (3) Address any questions and sincerely accept the opinions of others. system and mutual respect. (4) Information will be accurately reported and shared in a timely manner. Safety is enhanced through individual performance and dedication. (5) Continuous self-improvement for prevention and avoiding reoccurrence. (6) Lessons learned from experiences and increased skills for risk awareness. ANA Group Medium-Term Safety Promotion Plan In working toward higher levels of safety, we formulated the FY2021– FY2025 ANA Group Medium-Term Safety Promotion Plan as part of our efforts to accelerate the transformation necessary to return to growth, while responding flexibly to the COVID-19 pandemic and a changing environment. In fiscal 2022, the second year of the plan, we will implement this safety promotion plan while understanding immediate environmental changes and responding appropriately. We defined matters of the highest priority as our core safety values, establishing three pillars for engaging in specific priority actions: (1) Sense of Safety for Our Customers, (2) Safety Structures, and (3) Safety Culture. Safety Implementation of Implementation of Safety Measures Safety Measures C o m m u n c a t i o n i Safety Structures Education / Education / Awareness Awareness Safety Culture ANA Group ANA Group Core Safety Values (1) Build an organization that is resilient to change and innovation (2) Pursue safety based on global standards (3) Establish a culture of deep-rooted safety behavior (4) Foster core human resources who strive for safety (5) Instill confidence in our customers and society regarding ANA Group safety Priority Actions for Safety (Three Pillars) 1. Sense of Safety for Our Customers Disclose information and engage in greater dialogue with customers and society regarding our safety efforts as we pursue ESG management 2. Safety Structures Sense of Safety • Work closely with code-share, partner airlines to standardize and raise the level of our safety foundation, including safety information, safety rules, safety audits, safety education, and more • Engage in stronger preventive measures and bring visibility to safety through risk management and SPIs (Safety Performance Indicators) • Strengthen initiatives in predicting risk (including the Three Task Customer Customer Categories*) and change management; provide safety education and awareness activities via online and on-demand technologies 3. Safety Culture • Share specific examples of safety behaviors that embody safety cul- ture; pursue the practice of safety as a personal responsibility * First Time Task, Procedure Changes, and Task After Extended Time Gap Amid impact from the spread of COVID-19 and global affairs, we are creating a stronger structure to maintain safety, even as we adopt new and different mechanisms and procedures. (1) We adopted safety management methods within change management to prevent organizational errors when changes occur in structures or work flows. a. Identify risk factors (hazards) in advance b. Verify potential risks that may occur due to hazards c. Take measures to reduce risks and then implement change (2) During this fiscal year, as the number of flights has been recovering, we are promoting the effective practice of risk a. Each individual uses their foresight to anticipate risks b. Share information on matters identified and respond to risks before prediction from the perspective of the Three Task Categories beginning work (First Time Task, Procedure Changes, and Task After c. Use the assertion* method to respond appropriately with coworkers Extended Time Gap), which we developed during the COVID- 19 pandemic. With this effective practice, we are working to take measures to prevent unsettling events from occurring. d. Proactively send out spontaneous reports of near-misses when notic- ing something unusual or dangerous * Expressing opinions in a constructive and cooperative manner Developing Human Resources that Embrace and Enhance Safety Culture The ANA Group engages in ongoing education and training programs to preserve the memory of past accidents and hijackings in our pursuit of safety. We are harnessing the lessons learned during the COVID-19 pandemic, utilizing both face-to-face and online methods to pass on a broader and deeper safety culture. ANA Group Safety Education Center (ASEC) Total number of participants: 16,524 (including online participation) ASEC, located in the ANA Group Training Center (ANA Blue Base), provides safety education in which participants learn actively, leading participants to practice safe behavior in the workplace. Online training programs are also available, and all group employees worldwide have been taking its courses. Emergency Aircraft Evacuation Training Safety Forum Conducted by Senior Management Total number of participants: 8,483 Number of forums: 17 Total number of participants: 1,022 This training is mandatory for all group employees to support cabin attendants, as well as to provide assistance and guidance to passengers in the event of an aircraft emergency. The ANA President & Chief Executive Officer and three directors in charge of safety at ANA delivered safety-related lectures and engaged in dialogue with employees both face-to-face and online. Participants and leaders discussed and shared thoughts on a wide range of topics. Initiatives for Aviation Safety and Security Promotion Month 8 case studies shared We observe the Aviation Safety and Security Promotion Month every July, holding programs featuring seminars, presentations, and awards related to safety. Of the approximately 40 case studies of safety and quality improvement initiatives solicited from our front lines, the best were care- fully selected and shared in video format on our corporate intranet. 66 67 Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Safety Ensuring Safety in Non-Air Operations Food Safety The ANA Group introduced the ANA Catering Quality Program (ACQP), from the three aspects of food safety for hygienic inflight and ANA Lounge meals, the pursuit of delicious quality, and the safe and correct loading and unloading of goods on and off aircraft. Full-time auditors and chefs make regular visits to our catering contracts in Japan and around the world, offering guidance on improvements based on our own strict hygiene standards. We also engage regular external hygiene audits from third parties based on international standards. Results are reported to the group to maintain and improve quality. We also discuss the results regularly at board meetings, where decisions are made on the spot and implemented promptly to correct issues. Information Security The ANA Group is continuously working to ensure the secure handling of information, including personal customer information, as an issue equally important to flight operations. For our sys- tems, we have implemented a multi-layered security mechanism for entrance and exit control and anti-virus measures, and we monitor our security system 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. In addition, we have established the ANA Group Information Security Management Manual for employees in accordance with ISO 27001, and apply this to the entire group. We also use hand- books, e-learning, training, and email newsletters to ensure that this manual is widely understood throughout the group, and conduct audits to check compliance. In this way, we are strengthening our information management system and reducing the risk of information leaks from both tangible and intangible perspectives. In addition, we comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other laws and regulations enacted or revised in various countries regarding the protection of personal information. Further, we publish our privacy policy on our corporate website as appropriate. These initiatives are regularly reported to the management of the entire group through the Group ESG Management Promotion Committee. Hygiene Audit of the In-Flight Meal Production Facility at Haneda Airport Cybersecurity Response Training for Employees in an Online Game Format Seconding Employees to Develop Cybersecurity Human Resources As a critical infrastructure organization, the ANA Group also dispatches personnel to public expert organizations to analyze trends in cybersecurity incidents, formulate countermeasures, and contribute to the development of cybersecurity human resources through joint public–private sector efforts. I am currently on secondment to the Cabinet Secretariat’s National Center of Incident Readiness and Strategy for Cybersecurity (NISC), where I am in charge of formulating “The Cybersecurity Policy for Critical Infrastructure Protection” and the secretariat of its Expert Panel. This offers me a number of opportunities to interact with current affairs and the latest information surrounding cybersecurity, and I am keenly aware of the magnitude of the mission that the ANA Group, as a critical infra- structure operator, must fulfill. At the same time, I am proud of the ANA Group’s systems for cybersecurity and its extensive employee education, as seen from the outside. I look forward to continuing to deepen my knowledge of cybersecurity while utilizing the team spirit I have developed at the ANA Group, and to return the lessons I have learned to the ANA Group so that it can continue to fulfill its responsibilities as a business operator. MAEOKA Yuko Seconded to the National Center of Incident Readiness and Strategy for Cybersecurity New Foundation: Hygiene and Cleanliness In the with- and post-COVID-19 eras, the ANA Group is deepening its efforts related to hygiene and cleanliness as the basis for creating an environment in which passengers may board our flights with confidence. ANA Group Response to COVID-19 Our ANA Care Promise, a countermeasure against COVID-19, was well-received. In 2021, we were awarded World’s Best Airline Cabin Cleanliness, an honor bestowed for the highest-rated cabin hygiene and cleanliness, and the COVID-19 Excellence Award by U.K.-based SKYTRAX. By assessing the social situation and taking appropriate action in each particular instance, we will stay close to the voice of our customers and provide a safe and clean World’s Best Airline Cabin Cleanliness environment and service to all customers in all aspects of their travel. Enhanced Hygiene and Cleanliness We are working to enhance hygiene and cleanliness with the aim of continuing to be the airline of choice by meeting the needs of a diverse set of customers, even in the midst of social changes and new values. In addition to working to improve employee mindsets toward hygiene and cleanliness through in-house education and training, the company makes a list of areas prone to uncleanliness and conducts periodic inspections and improvements based on this list under the supervision of Nihon Stery, Inc. We are also working to create a system to enhance hygiene and cleanliness through cross-functional collaboration. We are taking action to ensure that the initiatives that began with the ANA Care Promise will not be one-off instances, and that spotlessness will take root as part of the ANA Group culture by establishing mechanisms and thoroughly promoting the perme- ation of these initiatives.

Basic Approach to Human Resources The greatest asset of the ANA Group is our human resources—each and every person working for the group. In order to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic and achieve new growth, it is essential that every employee of our group, with their diverse talents and strengths, work with enthusiasm and demonstrate their abilities to the greatest extent possible. To this end, the ANA Group will improve engagement with our employees to maximize the capability of the individual and the organization. Establishing a Mechanism for Sustainable Growth Focused on and Inspired by Our People Human Resources Diverse human resources maximizing individual strengths Engagement Engagement Ease of Work Stability and Fulfillment in Life Mental and Physical Health Enhanced Basic Quality Improved Customer Satisfaction Digital Enhanced Productivity Sustainable Growth Generating Innovation Improved Corporate Value Key Elements for Improved Engagement Job Fulfillment • Expand self-actualization mechanisms, such as an internal proposal system • Provide challenging opportunities for achieving diverse careers • Strengthen education and training programs for employees to take on challenges and achieve self-growth For the group to remain strong and grow Major Initiatives for Career Fulfillment sustainably in a changing environment, we must maximize and evolve the strengths of employees who have diverse expertise. We are strengthening opportunities for each individual to autonomously develop their strengths and carve out a career, including through new graduate ANA global staff recruitment in fiscal 2023 by segment and by specialty, and through enhancing challenging opportunities and providing diverse work style options after being hired. Enhancing Challenging Opportunities Supporting diverse work styles • Open Job Posting within the group • Sabbatical leave system* Allowing employees to voluntarily take on the work they want within the group Allowing employees to take temporary leave/absence for a certain period of time, regardless of reason • Open transfer within the group Offering opportunities to change career at other group companies • Job change challenge* Offering opportunities for employees to change their job type, e.g., from cabin attendant to ground staff • Secondment outside the group • Dual employment system* • Welcome back system* Welcoming retired former employees back via re-employment • Elective workplace system Allowing employees to request a transfer to a group company within each region if there are circumstances in their area of residence Support for career development Self-reporting interviews* Career training Career counseling Support for self-growth Group rank-based training Self-development program Systems marked with an asterisk (*) are company-specific within the group, and implementation differs for each company Linking Experiences Outside the Company to Both Personal and ANA Group Growth In response to the significant decrease in air passenger demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the ANA Group has been promoting secondment outside the group as one of our measures to protect the jobs of our group employees. Roughly 300 entities in the financial, telecommunications, government, and other sectors have cooperated with this effort and accepted our employees. As of July 1, 2022, approximately 700 employees are on secondments (cumulative total of 2,300 since October 2020). Each individual contributes to business by demonstrating their individuality and cultivated skills where they have been seconded. They also return the diverse set of work experiences and values accumulated there back to the ANA Group, demonstrating these and contributing to both their own growth and that of the ANA Group. Through open job posting, I was seconded to a company in real estate, and gained experience in areas like operating seminars for businesspeople. During my secondment, I gained lots of insights into the social role expected of cabin attendants from my interactions with people outside the company. Now, after returning to ANA, I am striving to deepen my understanding of the context behind our own various policies, as well as to deepen my cultural understanding and aptitudes so that I can convey the values and strengths of the ANA Group to as many customers as possible through my own work. In addition, together with my colleagues who have experienced secondment outside the group, I would like to take the importance of Connecting with Colleagues • Respect diverse individuals through practicing DEI • Create a proactive corporate culture through the promotion of ANA’s Way by each and every group employee ongoing self-improvement as a cabin attendant and permeate that broadly across the group. • Deepen mutual communication by utilizing internal platforms Looking ahead, my goal is to think of and implement solutions that only I can provide as a cabin attendant to social issues such as environmental conservation, regional revitalization, and gender equality. ISHIHARA Miku Inflight Services Center, ALL NIPPON AIRWAYS CO., LTD. Sense of Contribution • Roll out groupwide employee education founded in customer orientation • Share the group’s business activities through internal newsletters • Present the ANA’s Way AWARDS to recognize good practices In order to increase engagement and to create innovation and new value in the midst of a drastically changing business environ- ment, each employee must work autonomously based on their own ambition. To achieve this, we will promote a change to a co- creation style of management that creates value together by eliciting self-starting behavior and autonomy while maintaining closeness to the individual, such as by enhancing one-on-one communication. Using the Power of People to Achieve Sustainable Growth in the Post-COVID-19 Era Amid the impact of COVID-19, I have been keenly reminded of how significant the power of people is. With major restrictions on flying airplanes, at the core of our businesses, we were able to realize various employee-generated ideas through teamwork in a way that transcended company and departmental boundar- ies, including sightseeing flights, in-flight restaurants, weddings, and the sale of in-flight meals and maintenance parts planned for disposal. In addition, many of our cabin attendants and airport staff in particular have been given the opportunity to be seconded to companies and other organizations outside the group. Here, they have been able to demonstrate their ingenuity and ANA’s unique value in their respective environments, as well as their growth through the experience of taking on other cultures. By promoting improved engagement and creating an environment where each employee can demonstrate their expertise and strengths, we aim to create a strong ANA Group that will achieve sustainable growth after NAOKI Yoshiharu Executive Vice President Group CHO (Chief Human Resource Officer) ANA HOLDINGS INC. COVID-19. 70 71 Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Human Resources Promoting ANA’s Way ANA’s Way, our course of action, serves as the foundation for the attitudes and actions to be taken by all ANA Group employees toward the achievement of our Mission Statement and management vision. Daily practice of these actions conducted by every employee is the source of our core management—strength for brand enhancement—and the driving force behind creating the value of the ANA Group. The ANA Group is working to promote understanding of our Mission Statement, management vision, and ANA’s Way, as well to pass on the culture and DNA inherited over our 70 years of history. The Group is also continuously working to improve our engagement level through communication. Groupwide ANA’s Way Promotion Activities Through various initiatives within the group, every employee embodies ANA’s Way and creates corporate culture.

However, as of April 2022, we have added equity (providing fair support and creat- ing opportunities in accordance with diversity) as an important element and are deepening our activities with the promotion of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). In connection with this, we created the position of Group CDO (Chief Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Officer) to accelerate our promotion efforts. Understanding and Addressing Diversity (1) Gender Equality: Women in Leadership In June 2021, the ANA Group set medium-term goals in regard to women in decision-making positions. In addition to reviewing personnel and support systems and promoting actions such as capability development and awareness-building, management holds discussions and regularly checks the progress of key indicators to realize a workplace that leverages diversity and fosters the creation of new value. Furthermore, we are working to permeate DEI through town hall meetings, management messages, and communications with employees.

In October of the same year, we became the first Japanese airline to receive the Diversity & Inclusion Team Award at the Diversity & Inclusion Awards held by the International Air Transport Association (IATA), a result of our efforts to revitalize the airline industry through the promotion of D&I.

Under the motto of "Digital for extending the power of employees," we are striving to enhance the value of the customer experience. For example, we achieve this by deepening personalized services that only people can provide by streamlining operations through the use of digital technology, and by providing tailored services by utilizing customer-related data held by the group. To promote these mea- sures, we have launched a program to develop digital human resources who can firmly promote DX with a high level of expertise, and an educational curriculum (ANA Digital Resonance) to improve the digital lit- eracy of all employees. Digital Human Resources Development We have defined the roles of Digital Navigators and Digital Digital Literacy Training for the Entire Group In order to promote innovation with the united efforts of all Leads, drivers of business transformation by leveraging employees, we held our third Innovation Week in October their deep knowledge of digital technologies, and train 2021 in conjunction with the Digital Agency’s “Japan Digital employees to fill these roles.

We are also expanding our online content to help lored to the business characteristics of the ANA Group, employees understand information security and digital with the Air Transportation Business at its core. tools, with a total of over 45,000 employees taking part in programs in fiscal 2021. Employees Taking on the Challenge of Moving from the Sky to the Digital Field We develop digital human resources with a deep understanding of the group’s business by having them acquire skills in IT, digital technologies, and data, based on the experience and knowledge gained at various sites, including airports and maintenance. At the ANA Digital Transformation Office, ANA Systems Co., Ltd., and other units responsible for DX in the group, more than 100 group employees with diverse backgrounds have undergone digital human resources education and are now working as core human resources for the promotion of DX. I am currently in charge of agile development for business systems used by employees at various workplaces in the ANA Group. From my two years of on-site experience at airports, I realized that in order to deliver services and hospitality to customers that only people can provide, it is necessary to harness the power of DX to improve our environments. This gave me the interest in getting involved with the area of DX in the ANA Group. Thanks to my experience on the front lines at airports, I firmly believe that it is my strength, and my mission, to understand the context behind the specialized terminology and language out in the field, accurately capture the thoughts and insights of the field, and swiftly grasp the true cause of issues. I would like to continue to grow as a digital talent, supporting the provision of value unique to the ANA Group to customers, while never losing my field-focused perspective.

In addition, we have developed groupwide frame- works to minimize the impact of risks and prevent reoccurrence in case risks materialize. Risk Management Structure The ANA Group Total Risk Management Regulations General Determine Basic Policies Board of Directors provide the basic terms of the group’s risk management system. Under these regulations, the Group ESG Management Promotion Committee develops and imple- ments basic policies. These policies are executed in line with the basic policies determined by the board of direc- tors. Each group company / department has established a risk management system. Here, the ESG Promotion Officer (EPO) and the ESG Promotion Leader (EPL) are responsible for promoting and leading risk management operations, respectively. Each EPL assumes a role to conduct risk management (risk prevention) operations according to plans and take swift action while working with the secre- tariat in the event of a crisis.

Cybersecurity Measures The ANA Group is designated as a critical infrastructure provider in Japan by the National Center of Incident Readiness and Strategy for Cybersecurity (NISC). We implement a multi-level defense in accordance with the guidelines formulated by related ministries. We monitor our security system 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The ANA Group trains security specialist human resources, and we have estab- lished the Computer Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT) to ensure swift action in response to any incidents. Cybersecurity intelligence is most effective when providing early alerts to counter cyberattacks. Therefore, we participate in informa- tion sharing organizations, such as the Aviation Information Sharing and Analysis Center (A-ISAC), which consists of airline, aircraft man- ufacturer, and other members. We also participate in the Surface Transportation Information Sharing and Analysis Center (ST-ISAC). In these ways, we acquire information from internal and external industry sources as early as possible for use in taking preventive measures. We are working on response measures, under the premise that cybersecurity incidents are inevitable. At the same time, we are adopting a Zero-Trust approach based on a conventional security measure TRUST (i.e., communication with trusted people and objects based on authentication and process reliability checks). We use this approach as we simultaneously pursue DX in ANA Group services and products, such as Mobility as a Service (MaaS) and the ANA Super App. In addition, we intend to work even more closely with relevant ministries and agencies, economic organizations such as Keidanren, and private security organizations such as ISAC; to improve security between supply chains in today’s society, which is connected across all manner of business industries and sectors. Recent Increases in Natural Disaster Measures Recently, torrential downpours and typhoons have been growing in size, inflicting natural disasters countrywide. In response to this, we are taking various measures to protect our communication facilities and power supply facilities, which are essential infrastructure facilities for operations within airports. As a countermeasure for flood damage, we are working to establish an environment that allows for early restoration at our top five main airports assumed at high risk for flooding (Haneda, Chubu, Kansai, Fukuoka, and Okinawa). To do this, we are using the latest hazard maps to begin construction to install water gates and relocate equipment to higher areas. Also, we are taking measures for power outages at major airports to establish environments where operations can con- tinue during power outages. These measures include connect- ing necessary terminals for aircraft operations with emergency power equipment, and replenishing capacity of emergency power supplies through the use of large storage batteries. Operation Management Center and an Installed Large Storage Battery (bottom left) Responses to COVID-19 (Employee Infection Prevention Measures) The ANA Group created a response system based on the Crisis Management Manual and the Emergency Response Manual in late January 2020, when the COVID-19 infection began to spread. We adhere to • Disseminate knowledge about COVID-19 to all group employees • Ensure employees comply with basic preventative measures: avoiding the Three Cs (Closed spaces, Crowded places, and Close-contact settings), wearing masks, and washing and disinfecting hands policies and directions issued by the government and • Check employee health on a consistent basis before reporting to and local authorities and prevent the spread of infection as starting work we safely operate air transportation services, and our other services, to support socioeconomic activity, as • Segregate members into teams and avoid contact between teams to minimize the impact of an outbreak • Ensure there is no discrimination against infected employees or employees well as the lives of the people. suspected of having been infected In addition, the company began administering COVID- 19 vaccinations for ANA Group employees and their families, as well as employees of contractors and related businesses in June 2021.

At least once each year we analyze, evaluate, and discuss the overall effectiveness of the board of directors, and work to address issues identified during this process. Through the PDCA cycle, in which we again address and evaluate those issues at the end of each fiscal year, we work to improve the functions of the board. In fiscal 2021, in order to further enhance the objectivity and transparency of the evaluation, we conducted a third-party organization questionnaire as well as interviews regarding the results of that questionnaire to further deepen our analysis and evaluation. We will continue to enhance the PDCA cycle in order to further improve its effectiveness. In fiscal 2021, we commissioned Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank, Limited, which has a track record of supporting board effectiveness assessments for many companies, to conduct a questionnaire and interviews. The number of survey questions, including Questionnaire to all directors and Audit & Supervisory Board members Analysis and evaluation by a third-party organization open-ended questions, was increased from 16 to 36 in order to expand and deepen Interviews with the board chair, representative directors, and outside directors the scope of the survey. As a result, the company’s board of directors was evaluated as more active in discussions and more effective than those of other companies. It was confirmed that there is room for improvement in terms of meeting management and the composition of the board of directors. In-depth analysis and evaluation by a third-party organization Reporting of results to the board of directors / deliberation and consideration of improvement measures Fiscal 2020 Action / Plan Define Issues Fiscal 2021 Do Improvement Initiatives Check Evaluate Action / Plan Identify Issues Fiscal 2022 Do Improvement Initiatives Materials provided to the board of directors will include a summary of internal meeting discussions to enhance the amount and quality of information shared. In addition to including the status of internal discussions in the materials, it is now possible to receive explana- tions regarding details of the discussions, which is an improvement over the past. Increase time in board meetings for discussion of medium- to long-term management issues and, depending on the content, set aside time separately from board meetings. Provide periodic explanations of ANA Group management issues from representatives of major group companies. Discussions concerning corporate strategy and our business portfolio are also gaining momentum. Due to time constraints, it will be necessary to generate time for discussion by transferring authority to the executive officers, who can narrow down the agenda and reduce the time allotted for explanations. Extra efforts should be made to enhance the follow-up of corporate strategy and in-depth study of investment decision criteria and withdrawal criteria. In addition to meetings with the finan- cial statement auditor, opportunities should be provided to outside directors to discuss issues in meetings separate from board of directors’ meetings. Time was set aside, separate from board meetings, for outside directors to discuss issues facing the Group. We have established opportunities for meetings in which outside executives engage in direct dialogue with the Audit & Supervisory Board, and we feel this is sufficient. Management Further streamlining of board meeting operations is needed, as there is insufficient time for discussion of corporate strategy and investments. Increase the number of written reports and allow time for discussion. Share the estimated discussion time with the director in charge of discussions in order to enhance time management. Discussion Details More discussions on medium- to long-term manage- ment issues and monitoring of investments are necessary. For matters requiring more time for discussion, such as medium-term corporate strategy and strategic investment projects, opportunities shall be provided for small-group discussions separately from board of directors’ meetings, as necessary. In cooperation with the Corporate Planning Department, further enhance discussions at board of directors’ meetings. Providing Information to Outside Directors While enhancing the provision of information, the content and quantity of materials should be carefully examined according to the characteristics of each agenda item, so that the content can be understood more efficiently. Depending on the topic, either reduce the number of materials or, if the amount of material is more significant, attach an executive summary or similar document that clearly states the key points of the discussion. Town meetings will continue to seek effective operation methods. S h a r i n g I n f o r m a t i o n Efforts are being made to provide the details of discussions at internal meetings (opinions for and against topics) in greater depth than before. However, there is still insufficient information sharing related to the background behind the discussions and the tone of debate. More substantial explanations and discus- sions of medium- to long-term manage- ment issues and the status of each group company are necessary. In addition to meetings with the financial statement auditor, outside directors are required to hold meetings separate from board of directors’ meetings. i D s c u s s o n D e t a i i l s A c t i v i t i e s A d d i t i o n a l Visits to frontline business units and town meetings* were generally well-received and should be continued. We will conduct interviews in advance regarding the interests and wishes of outside directors regarding on-site visits and town meetings with frontline divisions, and continue to implement effective initiatives. Town meetings were very effective in terms of listening to voices on the ground. Board Membership Within the company, there is a need to increase the number of female executives and executives with digital skills. The appropriate composition of the board of directors will be discussed on an ongoing basis by the Personnel Advisory Committee and the board of directors. * Dialogue between officers and employees Cross-Shareholdings We believe that it is essential to maintain and strengthen col- the significance of holdings and the benefits and risks associ- laborative relationships with our business partners for further ated.

Performance-linked bonuses have not been paid. 91 Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Trust Building with Stakeholders The ANA Group regularly engages in dialogue with experts on ESG issues to understand social trends in a timely manner and make flexible management decisions. We are enhancing the effectiveness of our activities by incorporating the latest informa- tion and findings from these discussions into our strategies. In addition, we are holding a variety of internal discussions to have each employee understand the importance of promoting ESG management and put it into practice in their daily work. These discussions were held online in fiscal 2021 as well. However, a greater number of employees were able to participate, and we were able to deepen mutual understanding. Our internal and external connections with stakeholders such as these helped greatly to build trusted relationships throughout the ANA Group. External Dialogue The following titles of our experts are as they were at the time of discussion. Dialogue with Experts on the Environment (December 2021) Participating Experts YAMAGISHI Naoyuki Director, Climate & Energy and Oceans & Fisheries, WWF Japan HIBI Yasushi Vice President, Conservation International Topic Progress of Initiatives for the ANA Group’s Environmental Targets Q What are your thoughts on the ANA Group’s environmental targets and their current initiatives? • It is important to set targets and disclose information for both international reduction targets, such as SBT*1, and the introduction of renewable energy. • In addition to issues such as the stable supply of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), in regard to the provision of sustainable foodstuffs for in-flight meals (certified foodstuffs, etc.), it is expected that the ANA Group will step forward and demon- strate leadership by involving other companies in the industry and suppliers, etc. • The external evaluation of the ANA Group’s environmental initiatives as a whole will greatly change by its initiatives and achievements regarding this 1%, by promoting energy conservation in its own facilities and vehicles, introducing renew- able energy, and transitioning to EVs and FCVs. *1 Science Based Targets (SBT): Reduction targets in line with what the latest climate science says is necessary to limit global warming to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels. Q What are your thoughts on climate change and its relationship with biodiversity? • Biodiversity conservation refers to initiatives to protect nature. This includes everything ranging from ensuring the sustain- ability of foodstuffs used in in-flight meals to deforestation and plastics as marine pollution. SAF itself is also a field dependent on the natural environment. It is important to start with identifying, analyzing, and prioritizing what business is dependent on and what business is impacting in regard to the natural environment and resources. • From here on out, it will be important to address movements such as environmental due diligence and zero deforestation. Dialogue with Overseas ESG Investors (December 2021) Please visit our corporate website for more: https://www.ana.co.jp/group/en/csr/communications/ The following titles of our experts are as they were at the time of discussion. Participating Experts First Discussion: World Benchmarking Alliance Camille Le Pors World Benchmarking Alliance Lead, Corporate Human Rights Benchmark Charlotte Hugman World Benchmarking Alliance Lead, Corporate Human Rights Benchmark Second Discussion: Hermes EOS SUZUKI Sachi Associate Director – Engagement Topic Progress of ESG Management in the ANA Group First Discussion Q What are your thoughts on identifying issues to be addressed? • Through an impact assessment, first identify the impact of the company and significant human rights issues, and then confirm the environment surrounding the rights holders. It is important to prioritize the issues identified through dialogue with rights holders. • In assessing the impact of climate change on people, it is necessary to consider the direct impacts and the indirect impacts separately. When a company cannot resolve the indirect impacts on its own, more urgent actions will be needed hereafter. Q What are the key points on tackling information disclosure based on TCFD? • In order to come closer to successfully achieving the 1.5-degree scenario, it is important to quantitatively and qualitatively scrutinize the effectiveness and feasibility of what can be done and to what extent. • From the viewpoint of accountability, it is important to disclose specific plans, such as business and management systems, and CO2 reduction, as information disclosed deepens the stakeholders understanding of the company. Second Discussion Q What do you think about our initiatives toward becoming carbon neutral? • It is great that the ANA Group is switching to higher CO2 emission reduction targets and cooperating with other industries to develop SAF in order to work toward carbon neutrality. Even if investment is difficult at present, it is effective to partici- pate in the R&D to increase the total supply. Additionally, it is necessary to pressure and lobby the government. Q What do you think about our initiatives regarding diversity? • With regard to diversity, it is important to increase the proportion of women in voting positions such as directors. On the other hand, is also a problem to focus only on the proportion of female directors while the proportion of female executive officers and management-level employees is low. We expect to see improvements toward the current goal. Dialogue with Experts on Business and Human Rights (October 2021) Internal Dialogue Participating Experts Pauliina Murphy World Benchmarking Alliance*2 Engagement Director Neill Wilkins Institute for Human Rights and Business*3 Camille Le Pors World Benchmarking Alliance Lead, Corporate Human Rights Benchmark *2 World Benchmarking Alliance: An index initiative established by the United Nations Foundation, Aviva (a British insurance company), and other organizations. This organization develops benchmark indicators to evaluate company contribution levels to a sustainable society. *3 Institute for Human Rights and Business: An international think tank that works in the field of business and human rights and leads efforts in this area. Established in 2009. 92 Topic Promotion of Initiatives Relating to the ANA Group’s Business and Human Rights Q How can we enhance the effectiveness of the grievance mechanism? • Regarding the grievance mechanism*4, one of the disadvantages of a system that receives reports from individuals is that the companies become passive. It is important for the ANA Group to continue to approach the workers in the supply chain, and talk with those who are actually being affected, to enhance trust. *4 Grievance mechanism: A mechanism that enables the prevention and mitigation of negative impacts on the company throughout the value chain, including suppliers, as well as redress for victims of the negative impact that has occurred. Q How can we effectively address human rights issues in the global supply chain? • The company will be able to fulfill bigger roles and have a bigger impact through collaborations. Issues surrounding human rights violations inflicted by other countries and problems surrounding technical intern trainees living in Japan are not issues to be handled single-handedly. As such, it is expected that your influence will expand through collaborations with other companies and organizations. Q What are things to watch out for regarding Just Transition*5? • Even in Just Transition, it is important to consider the impact on human rights. Considering climate change and human rights together is very complex, but it is an issue for the ANA Group to address, and it is necessary to consider how climate change affects working conditions and the working environment. *5 Just Transition: A movement that aims to support those facing economic disadvantages, in addition to ensuring benefits are widely distributed, through the transition to a green economy. Internal Discussions to Promote ESG Management Awareness SDGs Seminar ESG TOP Discussions with Employees Seminars are available to all group employees in an online ANA Group officers ran a TOP discussion on the promotion format. They are a place to share information on the SDGs, of ESG management.

We have discussions planned with ees and officers participating online had the opportunity to overseas areas (Europe and the U.S.) that tie into creating exchange opinions and deepen their understanding of ESG awareness throughout the group. management. 93 Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Trust Building with Stakeholders Internal Dialogue Outside Director Town Meeting Initiatives Topics for Fiscal 2021: Challenges and future direction regarding human resources that will lead the group back to a growth trajectory Since fiscal 2018, the group has been providing opportunities for town meetings in which outside directors can engage in direct dialogue with managers across various ANA Group departments. The purpose of these meetings is to gain a deeper understanding of the group’s business and corporate culture, and to assist in the future management of the board of directors. The Maintenance Center and each group maintenance company participated in fiscal 2018, the Flight Operations Center in fiscal 2019, and the CX Management Office in fiscal 2020. The unprecedented crisis we experienced due to the COVID-19 pandemic has once again confirmed that the greatest asset of the Group is its human resources. In order to achieve renewed growth in the post-COVID-19 world, the Human Resources Strategy Department, which is in charge of hiring, training, and establishing human resource systems, held a dialogue with outside directors on issues and future directions regarding the group’s human resources, which will be the driving force for achieving renewed growth. The necessity of autonomous career enrichment, which is a prerequisite of the discussion • The results of the ANA’s Way Survey, an internal awareness survey, show a high correlation between career fulfillment and the engage- ment in one’s work that arises from a sense of satisfaction and achievement. • In accordance with the idea that each individual should carve out their own career path based on their own ambitions, the company will offer support for individual growth while expanding opportunities for new challenges. At the same time, employees are encouraged to enhance autonomous career development through specific dialogues between supervisors and subordinates that utilize job descriptions. Topic 1 Enhancement of Autonomous Career Development that Respects Individual Motivations and Skills Q What are the challenges to enhancing autonomous career development? Is there a mismatch between the person’s ambitions and staffing needs? • Career paths are very important because they act as an incentive for one’s future. However, if we only place importance on the ambitions of the individual, human resources will be concentrated in the most popular departments and career paths, resulting in a considerable degree of mismatch. • A concentration of personnel in the most popular departments will result in a shortage of specialists in flight operations, maintenance, engineering, etc. Considering the overall balance of the company and its profits, it may be necessary to consider a system in which compensation increases as such specialized skills and expertise are acquired. Assessment of work aptitude • Sometimes a person finds that they are not suited for the job they want after they actually tried it. In determining suitability, the advice of a supervisor and certain guidelines are necessary. • While it is important to find interesting work, it is more important for supervisors to properly evaluate the strengths of their subordinates and assign them suitable work while improving their motivation through positive encouragement. • It is a standard practice to rotate personnel so that they can experience various departments and determine their own aptitudes. However, individuals who can thoroughly perform in one department will also demonstrate their abilities when performing other duties, so it may not be necessary to transfer them. Honing one’s expertise and developing standards by which to evaluate yourself is important. Toward a personnel system that emphasizes individual motivation and strengths • Although mismatches between requests and assignments are likely to occur, the highest priority will first be placed on the individual’s motivation and strengths. Furthermore, these discrepancies can likely be resolved to a certain extent by separating the career tracks for airport / operations and marketing departments, etc., at the recruitment stage. • In many Group companies, the company’s business areas were fixed and the range of careers was limited. In addition to the expansion of the Group Human Resources Recruitment Program, an intra-Group transfer recruit- ment system will be introduced. We expect that these measures will enable employees to develop a variety of careers within the Group, thereby strengthening engagement. Q We expanded secondment outside the group as part of the employment measures to cope with the COVID-19 crisis. What do we think about this system? It is an effective way to utilize new discoveries in one’s career without being restricted by one’s past work experience. • Currently, 1,580 employees (as of December 2021), mainly frontline employees, are on secondment outside the group. In addition to hospitality, we hear that they are active in human resources development, public relations, sales support, and general affairs. We would like them to bring new insights and culture from outside the company back to the ANA Group in order to create new value. • Experiencing the corporate culture of a completely different company through a secondment outside the group is very beneficial in helping one notice the strengths and shortcomings of ANA. After the COVID-19 pandemic, it may be beneficial to continue the program for the benefit of human resources development. • There are relatively few opportunities for cabin attendants, airport staffs, etc., to perform different duties, and these external assignments present new career opportunities. Opportunities for external secondments have led to personal growth, such as one case in which an employee returned to ANA to take on generalist position. We are considering continuing this system in the future. Town Meeting (December 2021) Topic 2 Diversity in Human Resources Q What are our thoughts on securing and developing human resources from diverse backgrounds, etc.? Needs for diversity among our human resources • We live in an age in which we do not know who will be able to demonstrate their strengths in which situations. We should recognize each person’s strengths as a portfolio and change our approach to selecting appropriate leaders according to the abilities needed at any given time. That is what it means to make the most of diversity. • While it is important to hire young people with expertise in IT, data science, etc., there is a sense that there is a shortage of personnel that can be targeted through their career paths. It may be necessary to hire outside experts. Expansion of opportunities for human resources to play an active role • As for seniors, some of them do not decline after the age of 60. On the contrary, some of them broaden their vision. If they are truly capable, they should be able to remain active regardless of their age. Not utilizing the elderly is a great loss for Japan as a whole. • We think that broadening the scope of work, by having overseas staff concurrently perform head office duties, for example, will increase motiva- tion. Having overseas staff is a great asset for globalization. It might be a good idea to energize our Japanese staff by having overseas staff remotely participate in various meetings and events. 94 95 Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Message from the Independent Outside Directors Reassessing the meaning of social and transportation infrastructure in building an organization capable of overcoming difficulties and sharing a sense of mission YAMAMOTO Ado Independent Outside Director As an emergency measure to push through the COVID-19 gradually, and it is important to meet employee expectations pandemic, the ANA Group was quick to take action, including as performance recovers, which includes restoring the early retirement of wide-body aircraft and securing cash bonus levels. on hand.

Of course, we must not forget compensation is an extremely important part of employee motivation. The group ended monthly wage reductions at the end of fiscal 2021, and has set targets to phase out other measures in place to address COVID-19. I think employee motivation is increasing Even as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continued throughout fiscal 2021, the ANA Group implemented measures to return to growth in the post-COVID-19 world based on the Three Pillars defined under Business Structure Reform. As the group enters fiscal 2022, passenger demand is beginning to return. We asked outside directors YAMAMOTO Ado, KOBAYASHI Izumi, and KATSU Eijiro for their assessment of ANA Group efforts to recover business performance, future challenges heading to a post-COVID-19 world, and their expectations of President & Chief Executive Officer SHIBATA Koji. 96 97 97 Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Message from the Independent Outside Directors Sustainable value creation through new ideas generated by diverse human resources and flexible organizational development KOBAYASHI Izumi Independent Outside Director COVID-19 has reminded many companies of the importance convenience in the products and services they provided. of risk management.

Economic Conditions General Economic Overview During the fiscal year under review, the Japanese economy showed signs of a gradual recovery in corporate production activities and other areas with the gradual easing of the challenging conditions caused by COVID-19. Looking to the future, the economy is expected to pick up, sup- ported by effects from various government policies amid further normalization of economic and social activities and rigorous imple- mentation of infection prevention measures. However, monetary tightening is underway worldwide, and downside risks to the econ- omy due to fluctuations in financial and capital markets, rising raw material prices, supply-side constraints, and other factors require close monitoring. While it is assumed that the pandemic will continue to affect the group’s performance, a gradual recovery is expected in air transport traffic demand amid some movement toward easing restrictions on travel and entry. Fuel Price Trends While energy demand grew alongside a recovery in the global economy as it moved toward the post-COVID-19 era, oil-producing countries, primarily OPEC Plus, showed reluctance to increase pro- duction on a large scale. This raised concerns about strained supply and demand, and Dubai crude oil prices continued to rise throughout the fiscal year. In the third quarter, prices temporarily declined due to the release of U.S. strategic oil reserves and concerns about an eco- nomic slowdown caused by the spread of the Omicron variant. However, toward the end of the fiscal year, market prices rose once again due to increased supply concerns caused by the deteriorating situation in Ukraine, resulting in an average price of $78.2 per barrel for the fiscal year under review and $106.0 per barrel on March 31, 2022. The market price of Singapore kerosene tracked the price of crude oil. The average price for the fiscal year was $85.1 per barrel, ending at $127.7 per barrel on March 31, 2022. Foreign Exchange Market The U.S. dollar-yen exchange rate for fiscal 2021 showed a continued weakening of the yen throughout the fiscal year as the U.S. steadily raised interest rates to normalize its monetary policy, while large-scale monetary easing in Japan was maintained and the interest rate dif- ferential between the U.S. and Japan widened. The Japanese yen averaged ¥112.38 per U.S. dollar for fiscal 2021, ending the year at ¥121.70 per U.S. dollar on March 31, 2022. Air Transport Traffic Trends International Air Transport Association (IATA) member airlines reported 540 million passengers on scheduled international flights for in 2021 (14.4% increase year on year). Passengers on scheduled domestic flights numbered 1.76 billion (33.0% increase). At the same time, scheduled global air cargo volume increased 15.5%. (Source: IATA Global Outlook for Air Transport, 2022) In Japan, passengers on trunk routes* increased 47.0% year on year to 22.06 million. The number of passengers on local routes* increased 47.3% to 27.64 million. In total, passengers on scheduled domestic flights increased 47.2% to 49.69 million. Cargo volume increased 12.1% to 0.47 million tons. The number of passengers carried by Japanese airlines on international flights increased 120.6% to 1.76 million, while the volume of international cargo handled by Japanese airlines increased 29.8% to 1.76 million tons. (Source: Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Air Transportation Statistics) * Trunk routes refer to routes connecting Sapporo (New Chitose), Tokyo (Haneda), Tokyo (Narita), Osaka (Itami), Osaka (Kansai), Fukuoka, and Okinawa (Naha) airports with one another.

A total of 55 companies are treated as consolidated subsidiaries, with another 14 treated as equity-method subsidiaries and affiliates. Group employees num- bered 42,196 individuals, a decrease of 4,384 compared to the previous fiscal year-end. Despite a still-challenging situation for the airline industry, demand is on a recovery track, especially for domestic flights, and there are signs of recovery in demand for international flights as entry restric- tions are gradually eased. So too did the group’s operating revenues increase over the previous fiscal year, when impact was significant from the COVID-19 pandemic, due to a gradual recovery in the movement of people. In terms of costs, while the scope of flight operations was greatly expanded from the previous fiscal year, operating expenses were held at the same level thanks to ongoing rigorous cost management. However, due to the continuing impact of the pandemic, losses were recorded at each profit stage. In terms of financial position, in addition to recording a net loss, retained earnings decreased due to the application of the Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition, etc. In addition, we raised ¥170.0 billion by issuing convertible bonds with stock acquisition rights and straight bonds for future capital expenditures. Consolidated Operating Revenues, Operating Expenses, and Operating (Loss) Income In fiscal 2021, consolidated operating revenues amounted to ¥1,020.3 billion, a ¥291.6 billion (40.0%) increase over the previous fiscal year, when impact was significant from the COVID-19 pandemic. This increase came as the company took full advantage of passenger demand recovering in stages and steady cargo demand. We succeeded in making cost reductions of approximately ¥325.0 billion (including subsidies for employment adjustment) through our own efforts in rigorous cost management. However, operating loss was ¥173.1 billion (versus an operating loss of ¥464.7 billion in the previous fiscal year), mainly due to a delayed recovery in passenger demand amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Review by Segment The Group operates four reportable segments: Air Transportation, Airline Related, Travel Services, and Trade and Retail.

EBITDA = Operating income + Depreciation and amortization Air Transportation Business Air Transportation Business operating revenues amounted to ¥885.0 billion, a year-on-year increase of 46.5%. This was mainly due to increased passenger demand and record-high cargo revenues as we captured strong demand proactively, despite severe effects amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Our losses were improved versus the previous fiscal year due to steady implementation of Business Structure Reform and reductions in fixed costs such as depreciation and amor- tization, maintenance expenses, and personnel expenses. However, operating loss amounted to ¥162.9 billion (versus an operating loss of ¥447.8 billion in the previous fiscal year). Due to the deteriorating situation in Ukraine, the Haneda–London and Haneda–Paris routes were temporarily suspended from March 2022. However, the Haneda–Frankfurt and Narita–Brussels routes continued operation, circumventing Russian airspace. On the other hand, the impact of the situation on revenues was limited due to expanding flight operations in the International Cargo Business on U.S. routes, which have been performing well. 104 105 Financial / Data Section Management’s Discussion and Analysis Changes in Operating Income (Loss) (FY2021 vs FY2020) (¥ Billions) –447.8 Decrease in Expenses –3.8 Increase in Operating Income +284.9 Revenues from contracted maintenance and handling, Mileage and Card, etc. Sales commissions and promotion expenses, in-flight services, ground services ANA Cargo & Mail ANA Other Revenues –11.7 LCC +15.7 Sales- Linked –18.3 Fuel & Fuel Tax +84.2 Depreciation and amortization, maintenance, personnel, contracts, aircraft leasing fee excluding code-share, others –162.9 +6.3 –76.1 +174.9 ANA Domestic Passenger +76.7 Increase in Revenues +281.0 ANA International Passenger +25.4 FY2020 Operating Income (¥ Billions) Operating revenues Operating expenses Operating (loss) income 2021 885.0 1,048.0 (162.9) 2020 604.0 1,051.9 (447.8) Change YoY (%) +281.0 –3.8 +284.9 +46.5 –0.4 — Operation- Linked Other Expenses (Including impact of cost reduction measures) Landing and navigation fees, code-share costs, travel expenses for crew FY2021 Operating Income Results by business are as follows. ANA International Passenger Business Passenger demand remained significantly sluggish due to the resur- gent spread of COVID-19 and the outbreak of mutated strains. However, both passenger numbers and revenues outperformed the previous fiscal year amid newly recovering business demand, mainly for overseas assignments and citizens returning home, and newly recovering demand for connecting flights from Asia to North America following the relaxation of entry restrictions in various countries. In order to maximize revenues per flight, including cargo, we made efforts to dynamically adjust our route network and operate extra flights, such as transferring some North American routes to go to and from Narita Airport, rather than Haneda, starting in July.

In addition, we have endeav- ored to improve convenience by introducing ANA Travel Ready, a service that allows passengers to pre-register and confirm their travel documents online for some routes departing from Japan from February 2022 to ensure smooth boarding. As a result, available seat-kilometers (ASK) and revenue passen- ger-kilometers (RPK) increased 41.9% and 95.4%, respectively, while load factor increased 7.4 points to 27.0%. Passenger numbers increased 93.2% to 0.82 million, while unit price decreased 18.8% to ¥84,978. Passenger revenues increased 56.8% to ¥70.1 billion.

ANA Domestic Passenger Business Although demand was sluggish in the first half of the fiscal year due to repeated declarations of a state of emergency, demand began to recover in the third quarter after the declarations were lifted, and passenger numbers and revenues reached their highest levels on a quarterly basis amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Demand declined again with the spread of mutant strains in the fourth quarter and priority preventative measures applied to prevent the spread of COVID-19. However, demand began to recover strongly from mid- March 2022, when it was clear that the measures were to be lifted. As a result, both passenger numbers and revenues for the full year outperformed levels from the previous fiscal year, when impact was significant from the COVID-19 pandemic. In the route network, we adjusted the scale of flight operations in line with demand trends, and especially since October, we have proactively captured the gradual recovery in demand by dynamically operating extra flights, including during weekends, the year-end and New Year holidays, spring break periods, etc. In terms of sales and services, we introduced new Boeing 787-9 aircraft in December to improve comfort. This aircraft features new specifications for domestic flights, with all its seats upgraded to new models equipped with personal monitors. In addition, we strove to further stimulate demand by carrying out a boarding campaign and providing in-flight services tied to the animated TV series Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and by launching two specially designed aircraft featuring characters from the show. As a result, ASK and RPK increased 27.5% and 41.6%, respec- tively, while load factor increased 4.8 points to 47.8%. Passenger numbers increased 41.9% to 17.95 million, while unit price decreased 2.9% to ¥15,584. Passenger revenues increased 37.8% to ¥279.8 billion.

Against the backdrop of this strong demand, we launched Boeing 777F aircraft on the Narita–Los Angeles route in April, the Narita–Hong Kong and Narita–Taipei routes in October, and the Narita–Qingdao route in November. In addition to maximizing the use of cargo freighters, we actively captured cargo demand by dynami- cally operating cargo-only flights using passenger aircraft to expand capacity. As a result, international cargo volume for fiscal 2021 amounted to 0.976 million tons (up 49.1% year on year), while cargo revenues amounted to a record-high ¥328.7 billion (up 104.8%). Available ton-kilometers (ATK) increased 51.8% year on year and revenue ton-kilometers (RTK) increased 59.5%. 750 500 250 0 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 (Left) Passenger Revenues (Right) ASK RPK Yield 150 100 50 0 (FY) * Figures for ASK, RPK, and Yield are indexed using the figures for fiscal 2017 as 100. The Domestic Cargo Business dynamically implemented measures to increase revenues, including operating extra flights, mainly on trunk routes like Haneda–Sapporo and Haneda–Okinawa and utiliz- ing wider-body aircraft, given strong growth in parcel transportation due to increased demand for e-commerce. As a result, ATK for the fiscal year rose 35.2% year on year while RTK increased 17.3%. Cargo volume increased 15.3% to 0.251 million tons, and cargo revenues increased 19.4% to ¥24.9 billion. Operating revenues for international and domestic mail business amounted to ¥5.4 billion and to ¥2.6 billion, year-on-year increases of 84.8% and 4.5%, respectively. As a result, the ANA Cargo and Mail Business recorded fiscal 2021 operating revenues of ¥361.7 billion, a year-on-year increase of 93.6%. 106 107 Financial / Data Section Management’s Discussion and Analysis ANA Cargo and Mail Business Results International Cargo Business Results (Fiscal Year) 2021 2020 YoY (%) Cargo and mail services revenues (¥ Billions) 361.7 186.8 +93.6 International cargo ATK (Millions) RTK (Millions) 6,966 4,588 +51.8 5,186 3,251 +59.5 Cargo volume (Thousand tons) 976 655 +49.1 Cargo revenues (¥ Billions) 328.7 160.5 +104.8 245 +37.4 18/4 Unit price (¥/kg) Mail revenues (¥ Billions) Domestic cargo ATK (Millions) RTK (Millions) Cargo volume (Thousand tons) 337 5.4 957 281 251 2.9 708 240 218 Cargo revenues (¥ Billions) 24.9 20.8 Unit price (¥/kg) Mail revenues (¥ Billions) 99 2.6 96 2.5 +84.8 +35.2 +17.3 +15.3 +19.4 +3.6 +4.5 LCC (Peach Aviation) On domestic routes, we launched the Kansai–Memanbetsu route in July and the Fukuoka–Ishigaki route in October, while assessing the recovery in demand following the lifting of emergency declarations and priority measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19. In August, we began code-sharing and mileage partnerships with ANA on Narita and Chubu routes, expanding options for ANA brand customers and improving convenience. In addition, from the winter schedule onward, we expanded our network by transferring some routes from ANA to Peach. In terms of sales and services, we sold Tabi Kuji on Peach flights and in dedicated vending machines, offering travelers a random destination. The Tabi Kuji comes with Peach points that can be used to purchase airline tickets to the designated destination, missions at the destination, etc. Through these offerings providing new travel experiences leaving our customers’ destinations to chance and other measures, we have strengthened our sales promotion measures for generating new travel demand. As a result, ASK and RPK increased 59.4% and 101.7%, respec- tively, while load factor increased 12.9 points to 61.6%. Passenger Others Other operating revenues in the Air Transportation Business amounted to ¥135.4 billion, an 8.0% decrease year on year.

Operating Expenses Air Transportation Business operating expenses decreased ¥3.8 billion year on year to ¥1,048.0 billion. Specific expense amounts and explanations of year-on-year changes are described below.

This expense accounted for 18.5% of Air Transportation Business operating expenses, compared with 10.4% in the previous fiscal year. This ¥84.2 billion increase was mainly due to an increase in ANA unit price factors (including hedging effectiveness) of approximately ¥51.0 billion, and increases in consumption volume factors of approximately ¥27.5 billion for ANA and approximately ¥6.0 billion for the LCC. During fiscal 2021, we engaged in the same measures related to fuel tax reduction as we followed in the previous fiscal year. Domestic and international passenger flights increased 31.0% and 32.2%, respectively (excluding Peach Aviation flights). Freighter flights increased 24.7%. Landing and navigation fees amounted to ¥42.9 billion, down ¥2.8 billion (6.3%) year on year due to measures to reduce landing fees and other costs, despite the increased number of flights. Aircraft leasing fees increased ¥5.4 billion (5.1%) to ¥113.0 billion, mainly due to increases in domestic code-share flights operated by other airlines along with a gradual recovery in passenger demand. Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased ¥28.3 billion (16.8%) year on year to ¥140.5 billion. This was due to the effects of early retirement of aircraft implemented in the previous fiscal year as part of Business Structure Reform. Aircraft maintenance expenses decreased ¥13.2 billion (12.1%) to ¥96.1 billion. This was mainly due to a decrease in maintenance frequency linked to early retirement of aircraft implemented in the previous fiscal year. Personnel expenses decreased ¥5.2 billion (3.2%) year on year to ¥158.5 billion, mainly due to controlled salaries and bonuses. Sales commissions and promotion expenses decreased ¥19.6 billion (41.6%) year on year to ¥27.6 billion due to the application of the Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition, etc. Contract expenses decreased ¥14.0 billion (7.7%) year on year to ¥168.8 billion. Ground handling contracts and other contracted operations were lower than the previous fiscal year due to the impact of COVID-19. Other expenses decreased ¥10.1 billion (8.7%) year on year to ¥106.3 billion. This was mainly due to limiting advertising and other expenses. 108 109 Financial / Data Section Management’s Discussion and Analysis Airline Related In the sale of in-flight meals online, which we began in the previous fiscal year, we expanded the product lineup in November and contin- ued efforts to increase sales, including newly launching sales of in- flight meals for ANA’s international business class flights. However, operating revenues declined from the previous fiscal year due to a decrease in the volume of system development work handled as a result of investment limitations within the Group. As a result, fiscal 2021 operating revenues amounted to ¥206.8 billion, a ¥15.3 billion (6.9%) decrease year on year. Operating loss amounted to ¥0.6 billion (versus operating income of ¥3.6 billion in the previous fiscal year). Trade and Retail Despite reductions in revenue due to application of the Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition, etc. from the fiscal year under review, revenue increased at ANA FESTA airport shops in conjunction with a gradual recovery in passenger demand, and transaction volume in the electronics business increased due to strong demand in the semiconductor market. As a result, Trade and Retail recorded operating revenues of ¥81.6 billion, up ¥1.7 billion (2.2%) year on year.

However, contract revenues increased due to the transfer of digital marketing and other functions from within the group. As a result of the above, fiscal 2021 Travel Services operating revenues amounted to ¥46.2 billion, a ¥1.2 billion (2.7%) increase year on year. Operating loss amounted to ¥2.1 billion (versus operat- ing loss of ¥5.0 billion in the previous fiscal year). In April, to strengthen sales in the digital domain, we transferred our Travel Services business to ANA X Inc., which handles the platform business utilizing customer data, and established ANA Akindo Co., Ltd., a regional revitalization company. We will promote efforts to create a world in which people live in a mileage-based ecosystem, including the launch of ANA Pocket, a mobile app service that allows users to earn points from travel not only by air but also by foot, train, or other means. These points can be converted into miles or other coupons.

We secure funds for working capital and capital expenditures (mainly aircraft) through self-financing, bank loans, or through the issuance of bonds. Our basic policy is to secure stable sources of liquidity and funds necessary for business operations. As of March 31, 2022, we have secured commitment line agreements totaling ¥148.0 billion with several financial institutions. The group has access to the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC)’s guarantee system for investments in aircraft, our primary assets. Overview of Fiscal 2021 Free cash flow resulted in proceeds of ¥153.6 billion (sum of cash flows from operating activities and investing activities). Net cash proceeds from financing activities totaled ¥93.6 billion. As a result, cash and cash equivalents increased ¥250.7 billion from the begin- ning of the fiscal year, amounting to ¥621.0 billion at the end of the fiscal year. Cash Flows from Operating Activities After adjusting the ¥175.3 billion in loss before income taxes for depreciation and amortization, notes and accounts payable, notes and accounts receivable, and other non-cash items, net cash used in operating activities amounted to ¥76.4 billion, an improvement of ¥194.0 billion versus the previous fiscal year. Non-Operating Income / Expenses, Special Income / Expenses Fiscal 2021 non-operating and special income and expenses amounted to a loss of ¥2.2 billion. Depreciation and amortization expenses on inactive aircraft was transferred to non-operating expenses, which resulted in the recording of grounded aircraft expenses.

After income taxes, municipal taxes, business taxes, and other adjust- ments, net loss attributable to owners of the parent amounted to ¥143.6 billion, an improvement of ¥260.9 billion versus the previous fiscal year. Loss per share amounted to ¥305.37 (compared to loss of ¥1,082.04 in the previous fiscal year). Comprehensive loss amounted to ¥93.7 billion, an improvement of ¥259.4 billion compared to the previous fiscal year, mainly due to smaller net loss attributable to owners of the parent. 110 111 Financial / Data Section Management’s Discussion and Analysis Cash Flows from Investing Activities Net cash provided by investing activities totaled ¥230.0 billion, com- pared to an outflow of ¥595.7 billion in the previous fiscal year. Net cash used in investing activities amounted to ¥35.5 billion when excluding cash movements that resulted in net inflow of ¥265.5 billion related to the acquisition and sale of time deposits and nego- tiable deposits of more than three months. Free Cash Flow Net cash used in operating activities totaled ¥76.4 billion. Since net cash provided by investing activities was ¥230.0 billion, free cash flow for fiscal 2021 amounted to net inflow of ¥153.6 billion, com- pared to net expenditures of ¥866.2 billion for fiscal 2020. Substantial free cash flow amounted to an outflow of ¥111.9 billion, an improve- ment of ¥261.5 billion year on year, when excluding cash movements associated with the acquisition and sale of time deposits and nego- tiable deposits of more than three months. Cash Flows from Financing Activities Net cash provided by financing activities totaled ¥93.6 billion. This result was mainly due to the procurement of funds through the issu- ance of convertible bonds, despite a decrease of ¥1,004.5 billion compared to the previous fiscal year, when we procured funds through borrowings, public offerings, and third-party allotments. Capital Expenditures and Aircraft Procurement Capital Expenditures From fiscal 2020, the ANA Group has been temporarily restraining the scale of investment, particularly in aircraft, and reviews the timing of investment as appropriate. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2021 amounted to ¥133.3 billion, a decrease of 14.9% year on year. By segment, Air Transportation Business capital expenditures decreased 13.7% year on year to ¥130.5 billion. Airline Related Business expenditures decreased 90.4% to ¥0.1 billion, while Travel Services Business expenditures increased 203.7% to ¥0.4 billion. Trade and Retail Business expenditures decreased 62.4% to ¥0.4 billion, and Others decreased 59.4% to ¥0.3 billion.

Fundamental Approach to Aircraft Procurement Aircraft are major investments used over the long term (10-plus years). Decisions regarding the selection of aircraft types suited to routes and networks and the pursuit of the best fleet composition are among the most important issues for airline management. The ANA Group fleet strategy is based on three basic policies: (1) Strengthening cost competitiveness by introducing fuel-efficient aircraft, (2) Optimizing supply to demand by increasing the ratios of narrow- and medium-body aircraft; and (3) Enhancing productivity by integrating aircraft types. Fundamentally, the group purchases and owns strategic aircraft we intend to use over the medium to long term. We employ operat- ing leases to procure aircraft for use over the short term or for capac- ity adjustment. The group may also utilize sale-leaseback transactions as a means to diversify corporate financing methods. In these and other ways, the group selects the most economical aircraft procurement method. Aircraft Procured in Fiscal 2021 Based on our fleet strategy, total number of aircraft was 276 as of the end of fiscal 2021, a decrease of 17 compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. During the fiscal year, the ANA Group added 14 new aircraft. These additional aircraft included three Boeing 787-9s, one Airbus A380, five Airbus A321-200neos, four Airbus A320-200neos, and one Airbus A321-200neoLR. At the same time, we sold or returned from lease a total of 31 aircraft, consisting of ten Boeing 777-300s, four Boeing 777-200s, three Boeing 767-300s, five Boeing 737- 700s, and nine Airbus A320-200s.

Separate from the figures above, as of March 31, 2022, 19 aircraft were leased outside the group (17 as of March 31, 2021). Aircraft Procurement Plan for Fiscal 2022 We plan to add a total of 18 aircraft during fiscal 2022. These addi- tional aircraft consist of five Boeing 787-10s, five Boeing 787-9s, two Airbus A321-200neoLRs, and six Airbus A320-200neos. Meanwhile, the group plans to retire eight aircraft, consisting of two Boeing 777-300s, three Boeing 767-300s, and three Airbus A320-200s. 112 113 Financial / Data Section Management’s Discussion and Analysis Financial Position Assets Total assets as of March 31, 2022 amounted to ¥3,218.4 billion, an increase of ¥10.5 billion compared to March 31, 2021. Total current assets amounted to ¥1,293.9 billion, up ¥67.6 billion from the end of the previous fiscal year due to increases in operating accounts receivable and others. Cash and deposits amounted to ¥452.6 billion, a decrease of ¥12.0 billion compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. Marketable securities decreased ¥2.6 billion to ¥498.3 billion. As a result, liquidity on hand amounted to ¥950.9 billion, down ¥14.7 billion year on year. Total non-current assets at the end of the fiscal year stood at ¥1,922.8 billion, down ¥56.6 billion from one year earlier. This was mainly due to a reduction in aircraft as a result of sale and recording of impairment losses. Liabilities Total liabilities as of March 31, 2022 amounted to ¥2,415.0 billion, up ¥219.4 billion from one year earlier. Total current liabilities totaled ¥687.8 billion at the end of the fiscal year, an increase of ¥184.4 billion. This is mainly due to application of the Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition, etc., and the recording of contract liabilities from the beginning of the fiscal year under review. Total long-term liabilities amounted to ¥1,727.1 billion, an increase of ¥34.9 billion. Interest-bearing debt, including finance lease obligations, increased ¥94.6 billion to ¥1,750.1 billion, mainly due to the issuance of euro- yen convertible bonds with stock acquisition rights. The debt/equity ratio amounted to 2.2 times, an increase of 0.6 points compared with the end of the previous fiscal year. Net debt/equity ratio on a net interest-bearing debt basis was 1.0 times. Given the current external environment, we intend to maintain the current level of cash on hand for the time being. However, we plan to reduce total assets over the medium term and shift to more efficient financial management.

Shareholders’ equity decreased by ¥258.3 billion from the end of the previous fiscal year to ¥702.3 billion. This was due to a decrease in retained earnings resulting from a net loss and the application of the Accounting Standard for Revenue Recognition, etc. Total accumulated other comprehensive income amounted to ¥94.8 billion, an increase of ¥48.3 billion compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to an increase in deferred gain on derivatives under hedge accounting. As a result, total shareholders’ equity decreased ¥209.9 billion from the end of the previous fiscal year, amounting to ¥797.2 billion. Shareholders’ equity ratio decreased 6.6 points to 24.8%. Book value per share (BPS) at the end of the fiscal year was ¥1,695.06, compared to ¥2,141.49 as of the end of the previous fiscal year. The company has obtained credit ratings on its various long-term bonds from the Japan Credit Rating Agency, Ltd. (JCR) and Rating and Investment Information, Inc. (R&I). Bond ratings as of March 31, 2022 were as follows: Bond Ratings Issuer rating Outlook JCR A– Stable R&I BBB+ Stable Retirement Benefit Obligations The ANA Group has established a defined contribution pension plan and a defined benefit pension plan. The defined benefit plans consist of defined benefit corporate pension plan and lump-sum retirement benefit plans. Certain employees are entitled to additional benefits upon retirement. Certain consolidated subsidiaries adopting defined-benefit corpo- rate pension plans and lump-sum retirement benefit plans use a simplified method for calculating retirement benefit expenses and liabilities.

The objective of this hedging is to both stabilize profitability and equalize expenses in response to rising fuel surcharges and foreign currency revenues associated with growth in ANA’s international business. The group conducts fuel hedging (for ANA) three years in advance of the applicable period after considering fuel surcharge revenues. The group hedges U.S. dollar payments for ANA HOLDINGS and ANA related to fuel expenses three years in advance and U.S. dollar payments associated with capital expenditures for aircraft and other items five years in advance of the payment periods. Based on a balance of foreign currency revenues, revenues linked to foreign exchange market fluctuations, and foreign currency expenses with respect to U.S. dollar payments, the group uses forward exchange agreements to hedge any portion of foreign currency expenses in excess of foreign currency revenues. Allocation of Profits Basic Policy on Allocation of Profits We recognize that shareholder returns are an important management priority for the group. The group strives to bolster shareholder returns while maintaining financial soundness. This goal will be accomplished as we secure the funds needed in light of earnings fluctuations and to conduct growth investments (aircraft, etc.) to support future business development. We examine the shareholder returns in terms of dividend levels and share buybacks on an ongoing basis, while considering the level for free cash flow. Our basic policy is to pay a year-end dividend of surplus once a year. Our General Meeting of Shareholders is the decision-making body for the distribution of surpluses. Dividends for Fiscal 2021 and Plans for Fiscal 2022 We deeply regret to announce that we will not be paying a dividend for the fiscal year under review due to the tremendous impact of COVID-19 on the group’s business performance. For the time being, our top priority will be to maintain and strengthen our financial base. However, we intend to continue implementing Business Structure Reform on a steady basis, striving to improve earnings and resume dividend payments as quickly as possible. 114 115 Financial / Data Section Operating Risks As a corporate group whose core business is air transportation, we consider safety to be our most important social mission. We con- sider damage or impediment to this mission to be the most impor- tant risk. These risks include the risk of infectious diseases, which continue to have a significant impact; the risk of climate change, for which urgent measures are needed worldwide; risks related to the international situation; which is increasingly affected by the global- ization of business, and risks related to investments required to strengthen our non-air businesses. The following is a summary of risks that the group believes may have a significant impact on investor decisions. The following matters are based on the group’s judgment as of the end of the period under review. As these statements include future projections, these matters may not conform to reality. In addition, other matters not mentioned below may affect the group. Further, forward-looking statements that follow are based on group judgments as of the end of the fiscal year under review. Important Factors The ANA Group has experienced the significant negative impact of COVID-19, resulting in declining operating revenues. Given these unprecedented circumstances, we have reduced personnel expenses, and depreciation and maintenance expenses through the early retirement of aircraft, wide-body aircraft, in the previous fiscal year. We have also carefully scrutinized and limited capital investment in aircraft and other equipment, revising the timing of implementation. During the consolidated fiscal year under review, we raised ¥170.0 billion through issues of convertible and straight bonds. We also refinanced ¥100.0 billion from private banks. These and other measures resulted in ¥950.9 billion in liquidity on hand (cash and deposits plus marketable securities) as of the end of the fiscal year. In the future, we will raise more funds as necessary to secure liquidity on hand for every group company. Accordingly, it is our judgment that there are no material uncertain- ties regarding the going concern assumption for the ANA Group. (1) Most Important Risk The most important risk to the ANA Group is the risk of damage or impairment to safety. Summary Safety is the foundation of our business and our promise to the public. In case of any event that damages or impedes safety, it will have a major negative impact on the group. In particular, any human casualties could shake the foundations of the group’s social credibil- ity and trust. In the event of an airline accident or other incident that results in personal or property damage, we may be held liable for compensation for such damages. If safety is impaired or compro- mised, the impact could be far-reaching, even leading to a decline in group revenues over the medium term as customers become hesitant to fly with the group or choose to fly with another airline. In the event that a manufacturing defect or other issue is discov- ered in an aircraft, we may be forced to suspend the operation of said aircraft as a precautionary measure to ensure safety. Taking such measures may reduce group revenues or damage competi- tiveness in the industry due to flight cancellations or reductions caused by a shortage of aircraft. Changes and Outlook We believe this risk continues to be the most important risk for the ANA Group. Response The ANA Group has an organization dedicated to the promotion of safety. This team conducts safety quality audits and has built a sustainable mechanism to ensure safety. Beyond reactive safety risk management, we engage in safety risk management that incorpo- rates preventive and predictive measures. We pursue further safety improvements through risk management focusing factors that include the Three Task Categories (First Time Task, Procedure Changes, and Task After Extended Time Gap) and fatigue risk management for flight crew and flight attendants. Further, we provide visibility to safety through safety performance indicators (SPI) and engage in numerous other means to improve safety further. At the same time, we conduct ongoing and recurring education and training for flight crew, flight attendants, and other employees involved directly in aircraft operations. We also provide constant safety awareness activities for all employees in the ANA Group. In these ways, and through the ANA Group Safety Education Center, we strive to foster and strengthen a corporate group culture committed to safety. We also work closely with aircraft manufactur- ers and other parties to exchange information and opinions that support safety and high-quality operations. (2) Major Risks 1. The ANA Group continues to experience the significant impact of infectious disease. Summary The negative impact of COVID-19 has yet to subside. If govern- ments or local authorities impose restrictions or bans on travel, or tighten immigration controls, passenger demand will decline sharply, which will have a significant impact on group revenues. In such an event, controlling Air Transportation Business expenditures will not be easy, since aircraft expenses, personnel expenses, and other fixed costs account for a large portion of the business. Even if official measures taken by governments and local authorities are lifted, the impact may be ongoing if customers continue to suspend their business trips and leisure travel. During the demand recovery phase, the group’s plans for business capacity could be affected by overseas contractors, etc., who have temporarily reduced the scale of their operations. These contractors, etc., may require time to restore their capacity to accept our business contracts. Changes and Outlook The recent outbreak of COVID-19 has once again highlighted the major nature of this risk. In general, climate change (global warming) is said to increase the risk of infectious disease. While scientific evidence has yet to be established, we believe this risk will be increasingly important to address in the future. Response The ANA Group secured passenger aircraft and freighters as resources allowing for a proactive response to the movement of goods, even when personal travel has declined. At the same time, we are able to serve personal travel to limited demand in the most appropriate approach through our three brands: ANA, Peach, and AirJapan. We are currently diversifying our business portfolio. We plan to strengthen our non-air businesses built on a growing platform business founded on the ANA Mileage Club, which has nearly 38 million members worldwide as of March 2022. 2. Addressing climate change issues is becoming even more important and urgent. Summary Aircraft operations emit CO2 and other greenhouse gases. Reducing these emissions is a pressing matter for the group. The ANA Group is working to achieve net-zero CO2 emissions by 2050. To this end, we aim to replace aircraft with more fuel-efficient models and utilize sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). SAF is jet fuel produced from sustainable sources that emit less CO2 during the entire process from raw material production and collection to combustion. At this point in time, there are no technical prospects indicating that SAF will be in sufficient supply on a stable basis at a reasonable price. If SAF is not in stable or sufficient supply, the group may be forced to purchase CO2 emission credits or allowances from other industries, which may increase operating expenses. If SAF prices remain high, the operating cost of aircraft may increase, affecting group profitability. High operating costs could also affect competi- tiveness against other modes of transportation, such as railway and ocean transportation, as we must pass on costs in the form of higher fares. In the event that group plans to reduce CO2 emissions do not progress as targeted, customers may choose other modes of transportation, such as rail, which emit relatively lower levels of CO2. If an adequate supply of SAF cannot be sourced in Japan, group aircraft may encounter restrictions or limitations in access among certain countries or regions that have adopted strict environmental standards. Changes and Outlook An awareness of climate change is spreading rapidly worldwide, and we believe addressing this risk has become an extremely high priority. We also believe that more stringent and sophisticated measures may be required to address this risk in the future. Response In addition to taking proactive measures, including replacing aircraft with newer, more fuel-efficient types, we will work with other com- panies in the industry and SAF manufacturers to establish a cross- sector cooperative relationship. In this way, we will strive to develop and secure SAF supply as we collaborate with other companies and industries to solve this issue. The ANA Group discloses information in line with the recommen- dations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) on our corporate website. 3. Increased risks due to instability in the international situation Summary The ANA Group has expanded our international business in search of further growth opportunities. However international affairs have become unstable due to U.S.–Chinese frictions, the Russia–Ukraine situation, and other factors. Uncertainties regarding future events are on the rise. International air transportation has grown against the backdrop of economic globalization. However, if this trend stag- nates or reverses due to conflicts among major powers, or if peace fails due to war or conflict, ANA Group revenues could be affected negatively due to slow demand for business travel or a decrease in demand for tourism. Instabilities in the international situation could affect not only our international business but also our domestic business, caused by lower inbound demand (foreign tourists visiting Japan), etc. In addition, instabilities could increase the cost of doing business, as aircraft may be rerouted, unable to fly over war or conflict zones. The impact of these costs could be far-reaching. Changes and Outlook The expansion and acceleration of economic globalization, which has progressed since the end of the Cold War, is now subject to uncertainties. We believe the need has increased to manage and address the international situation as a risk. Response In developing our international business, we focus not only on short-term profitability when building an airline network but also on the risks associated with the global situation. We will continue to focus on this risk in the future. The ANA Group will also take care that we do not rely overly on passenger acquisition in certain countries or regions overseas, but rather strive for a balanced approach. In the event that an emergency response is required to an escalation in the global situation, we will be flexible in altering flight plans and routes to mitigate the impact. 4. The impact of a system failure is significant. Summary The group seeks to systematize business operations to provide air transportation services of ever-higher quality and efficiency. The potential impact of system failures on our business continues to increase, regardless of whether the failure is caused by internal or external factors, such as a cyberattack. In the event of a systems failure related to aircraft operations, it may become difficult to operate aircraft. And in the event of a failure in peripheral systems such as reservations, payments settlements, and boarding manage- ment, it may become impossible to accept and settle reservations or manage boarding at airports. In effect, the group would not be able to provide air transportation services. Changes and Outlook We believe the risk of system failures increases with increases in systems sophistication, interconnectivity, and access. Further, we are seeing an increasing number and sophistication of cyberattacks in society in general. We believe there is a growing social demand to prevent and reduce this risk. 116 117 Financial / Data Section Operating Risks Response We established the Group IT Management Department as a special- ized organization with responsibility for systems operations and management for the ANA Group. This department is also respon- sible for preventing systems failures and to build a comprehensive and multifaceted operating system to reduce the impact of system failures and to restore systems as soon as possible. The group is also bolstering our response to intangible aspects through improved education and system failure-response training for our employees. 5. Dealing with the risk of information leakage is increas- ingly important. Summary The ANA Group retains a great deal of information, which includes the personal data of nearly 38 million ANA Mileage Club members worldwide as of March 2022. In the event of an unauthorized leakage of such information, the ANA Group may be sued for damages, ordered to pay fines and penalties by governments, and lose the trust of our customers and society, thereby experiencing competitive disadvantage. Changes and Outlook We believe the need to address this risk appropriately is only rising in light of heightened social awareness regarding the handling of information, based on increasingly strict laws and regulations. Response We engage in appropriate information management in accordance with the laws and regulations of each country. We also implement computer virus countermeasures, email security checks, monitoring for unauthorized operations, restrictions on employee access to information, and information management training for all employees. In addition, we take measures to prevent cyberattacks and informa- tion leaks, engaging in ongoing inspections of group systems to detect and respond to aging systems and vulnerabilities as early as possible. 6. Human rights risk involves expanding factors demanding greater attention. Summary Any violation of human rights will bring social criticism or boycotts, whether the violation occurs within our group or within the business chain related to our business, including contractors, suppliers, and business partners. Changes and Outlook As we respond to the shrinking labor force in Japan and expand our businesses overseas, our base of human resources becomes more diverse. In light of growing social and international awareness of human rights, we believe in the need to address this risk from multiple perspectives. Response The ANA Group conducts business operations in line with the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights endorsed by the United Nations Human Rights Council. We conduct internal human rights-related training and awareness activities, as well as periodic monitoring at management-level meetings. In addition, we strive to manage this risk appropriately through the direct confirmation and investigation of external parties as necessary. 7. The risk of severe natural disasters is increasing. Summary Air transportation has the advantage of being relatively more resilient to natural disasters among most transportation systems, as this means of travel connects points by air. Even if certain airports fail to function, alternative flights can be provided using nearby airports. However, the ANA Group business is based and concentrated in the Tokyo metropolitan area. Therefore, major restrictions or disrup- tions to flight operations could occur if the Haneda or Narita airports are impacted severely by a natural disaster. Changes and Outlook In general, climate change (global warming) is said to lead to more frequent and severe natural disasters. We believe this risk will be increasingly important to address in the future. Response We formulated a business continuity plan (BCP) and regularly review the plan to ensure we restore operational functions quickly and fulfill our mission as a public transportation service in the event of a large-scale natural disaster, such as an earthquake directly under the Tokyo metropolitan area. We have backup systems in place for the various core functions essential to our flight operations. These systems include satellite phones, emergency provisions, employee safety confirmation systems, etc. In addition, we conduct regular disaster drills in cooperation with related parties, including airport companies, etc. 8. The ANA Group business is affected significantly by market fluctuations, including foreign exchange rates, crude oil prices, and interest rates. Summary a. Foreign exchange rates Since the aircraft used by the group are manufactured by overseas manufacturers, a significant depreciation of the yen will increase the cost of aircraft procurement. Aircraft fuel, which accounts for a major portion of our operating expenses, relies on the import of crude oil, which is used as a raw material. Here as well, operating expenses will increase if the yen depreciates significantly. The yen depreciation boosts yen-equivalent revenues earned overseas by the ANA Group. However, the group has more foreign currency- denominated expenses than foreign currency-denominated reve- nues, and the effect will not offset the entire increase in expenses. The group also takes measures to mitigate the impact of exchange rate fluctuations through hedging transactions, etc. And while these measures may mitigate or equalize the impact, they do not completely eliminate the impact. Nor can these measures be expected to be effective in controlling costs in all cases. b. Crude oil prices The price of jet fuel is linked to the price of crude oil. A sharp rise in crude oil prices inevitably leads to an increase in aircraft fuel costs. In certain of our businesses, the ANA Group adopts measures that include assessing and collecting fuel surcharges based on fuel prices. However, these revenues do not always offset the entire increase in fuel costs. The group also takes measures to mitigate the impact of crude oil prices through hedging transactions, etc. And while these measures may mitigate or equalize the impact, they do not completely eliminate the impact. Nor can these measures be expected to be effective in controlling costs in all cases. c. Interest rates The ANA Group business operations leverage aircraft financing and other external funds. A significant rise in interest rates could affect the group in the form of increased financing costs. but also through our investment management committee, which oversees investments for the group. In this way, we ensure a hierarchical and multi-layered management system that incorpo- rates pre-investment evaluation and post-investment withdrawal standards. Changes and Outlook Although market fluctuations have always been a possibility, we believe the potential of this risk has increased in light of growing uncertainties regarding international and economic conditions. Response As described above, we take measures to control, mitigate, and equalize risks through the use of hedging transactions, etc. As a group, we strive to enhance resilience to market fluctuations. To this end, we engage in more fundamental measures that include increasing foreign currency-denominated revenues to build a revenue structure that is resilient to the effects of exchange rates, replacing our fleet with new aircraft having superior fuel efficiency, diversifying our business portfolio to develop businesses less susceptible to market fluctuations, and procuring funds under appropriate financial discipline. 9. Investments designed to strengthen competitiveness and achieve new growth also entail risks. Summary At present, the ANA Group is experiencing the severely negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are considering and execut- ing investments to overcome the pandemic, restore business stability, and achieve growth for the future. However, these invest- ments also entail risks. We make investments in our Air Transportation Business that include new aircraft to maintain and improve our competitiveness against other companies, as well as to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, potential risks include the possibility that these investments will not have the expected effect in the event that the shrinking market does not recover to expected levels in the wake of COVID-19, that unexpectedly large changes in social behavior patterns occur due to spread of various online technologies, or that unexpectedly large changes in globalization of economic activities arise due to international circumstance. In addition, we strive to increase the risk tolerance of the group through the consideration and execution of investments in related businesses that we expect to have synergies with the Air Transportation Business and similar businesses. These businesses may utilize expertise from the Air Transportation Business, namely, customer-related businesses (platform-type businesses), drone businesses, Mobility as a Service (MaaS) businesses, space-related businesses, etc. While we expect these investments to be highly impactful when they produce the expected results, these invest- ments may not produce the expected results in all cases. Changes and Outlook Given the current and severe impact of the pandemic, we believe that risk management related to investments has become even more important. 10. A declining population may cause existing markets to contract, or make it more difficult to secure a workforce. Summary The most significant business foundation of the ANA Group exists in Japan. But as Japan’s population continues to decline, the size of this market may contract in the future. Given the characteristics of air transportation, which is responsible for business and leisure travel demand, the population-related market size may be affected by changes in working-age populations, which decline at a faster rate than the general population. Population declines may also have an impact on the ability to secure the labor force necessary for business operations. In this event, unit labor costs may increase or business operations may be limited due to labor shortages. Changes and Outlook Although we do not expect a significant impact in the immediate future, we believe there is a high probability that this risk will materi- alize over the medium to long term. Response We take into account and reflect assumptions of social change (declining populations, etc.) when forming corporate strategies. We also strive to revitalize the market as a whole by utilizing our LCC brand. Over the medium to long term, we will continue to expand our international business, which addresses a market likely to continue growing in the future. To secure a sufficient workforce, we will improve our ability to compete in recruitment via proactive investment in people. These investments will include allocating and expanding education and training opportunities appropriately. To prepare for the decline in the working population, we will pursue mechanization, labor savings, and unattended operations, which we understand may not repre- sent a source of differentiation with other companies. 11. Expansion of high-speed rail networks, etc., may inten- sify competition between air and land transportation. Summary Further expansion of the high-speed rail network in Japan is sched- uled in the future, and competition with the shinkansen bullet train and other railways may become more intense. The extension of bullet train lines and the acceleration of existing lines may impact the group’s domestic operations. This impact could include a decline in market share or a drop in unit prices due to intensified price competition. Changes and Outlook We believe this risk is likely to emerge in the future. Response When considering and executing investments, we strive to manage risk appropriately, not only through discussions and deliberations at board of directors’ meetings and other management-level meetings, Response We take into account and reflect assumptions of changes in the competitive environment such as an extension of high-speed rail networks, etc., when forming corporate strategies. We also strive to revitalize the market as a whole by utilizing our LCC brand. Over the 118 119 Financial / Data Section Operating Risks medium to long term, we will continue to expand our international business, which addresses a market likely to continue growing in the future. (3) Other Risks a. Risks related to transportation and aviation policies Certain key airports, such as Haneda, have already reached a maximum number of slots for departures and arrivals. Given that the throughput capacity is essentially up to national policy, such airports may limit the future business development of the group. Further, future policies could result in the reduction or recovery of slots at these airports currently in use by our group. b. Risks related to taxation and taxes and public dues Our Air Transportation Business is subject to taxes and public dues that include airport landing fees, parking fees, and navigation and facility usage fees. These fees run in addition to fuel tax and other taxes. Any raises to existing taxes or new taxes and public dues could have a negative impact on the group. c. Risks related to economic fluctuations Medium- to long-distance air transportation is more susceptible to economic fluctuations than regular short-distance transportation. d. Risks related to profit structure, financial platform, and funds procurement The Air Transportation Business uses costly aircraft and incurs many expenses (fuel, maintenance, etc.) linked to flight operations, regardless of the volume of passengers and cargo carried. A significant decline in demand could cause a major reduction in profitability. In addition, the group has recorded deferred tax assets. However, these assets may be reversed in the event of a decrease in expected future taxable income. The ANA Group may procure funds necessary for capital invest- ment, etc., from financial institutions and the market. However, if the group is constrained in its ability to procure funds due to changes in creditworthiness or market turmoil, such events may have a nega- tive impact on the group. e. Risks related to business portfolio In addition to the Air Transportation Business, which accounts for a large percentage of group revenues and earnings, many of the group’s other businesses are related to air transportation, such as travel services and airline-related businesses. Any significant nega- tive impact on the Air Transportation Business could affect other businesses materially. f. Risks related to lawsuits Lawsuits filed in Japan or overseas related to group business activities could have a negative impact on the group. Joint Venture A joint business in the international airline industry between two or more airlines. Restrictions such as bilateral air agreements between countries and caps on foreign capital investments still exist in the international airline industry. Therefore, airlines form ATI-based joint ventures, instead of the commonly known methods used in other industries such as capital tie-ups and M&As, etc. By forming joint ventures, airlines in the same global alliance are able to offer travelers a broader, more flexible network along with less expensive fares, thus strengthening their compet- itiveness against other alliances (or joint ventures). Full Service Carrier (FSC) An airline company that serves a wide range of markets based on a route network that includes code-sharing connecting demand. FSCs offer multiple classes of seats and provide in-flight food and beverages that are included in advance in the fare paid. FSCs are also called network carriers or legacy carriers when compared with low cost carriers (LCCs). Low Cost Carrier (LCC) An airline that provides air transportation services at low fares based on a low-cost system that includes using a single type of aircraft, charging for in-flight services, and simplifying sales. Fundamentally, LCCs operate frequent short- and medium-haul point-to-point flights (flights between two locations). Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) Business A business that is contracted to provide aircraft maintenance services using its own maintenance crew and other personnel, along with dedicated facilities. Services include the maintenance, repair, and overhaul of aircraft and other equipment owned by airlines. Glossary Passenger Business Terms Available Seat-Kilometers (ASK) A unit of passenger transport capacity, analogous to “production capacity.” Total number of seats x Transport distance (kilometers). Revenue Passenger-Kilometers (RPK) Total distance flown by revenue-paying passen- gers aboard aircraft. Revenue-paying passengers x Transport distance (kilometers). Load Factor Indicates the seat occupancy ratio (status of seat sales) as the ratio of revenue passenger- kilometers to available seat-kilometers. Revenue passenger-kilometers / Available seat-kilometers. Yield Unit revenues per revenue passenger-kilometer. Revenues / Revenue passenger-kilometers. Unit Revenues Quantitatively measures revenue management performance by showing unit revenues per available seat-kilometer (Revenues / Available seat-kilometers). Calculated as yield (Revenues / Revenue passenger-kilometers) x load factor (Revenue passenger-kilometers / Available seat-kilometers). Unit Cost Indicates cost per unit in the airline industry. Calculated as cost per available seat-kilometer. Revenue Management This management technique maximizes revenues by enabling the best mix of revenue-paying passengers through yield management that involves optimum seat sales in terms of optimum timing and price based on network and fare strategy. Optimizing Supply to Demand Involves flexibly controlling production capacity (available seat-kilometers) according to demand trends in ways such as increasing or decreasing the frequencies on routes and adjusting aircraft size. VFR (Visiting Friends and Relatives) Refers to travel for the purpose of visiting friends and relatives. Cargo Business Terms Available Ton-Kilometers (ATK) A unit of cargo transport capacity expressed as “production capacity.” Total cargo capacity (tons) x Transport distance (kilometers). Revenue Ton-Kilometers (RTK) Total distance carried by each revenue-paying cargo aboard aircraft. Revenue-paying cargo (tons) x Transport distance (kilometers). Freighter Dedicated cargo aircraft. Seats are removed from the cabin space where passengers would normally sit, and the space is filled with containers or palletized cargo. Belly The space below the cabin on passenger aircraft that is used to transport cargo. Airline Industry and Company Terms IATA The International Air Transport Association. Founded in 1945 by airlines operating flights primarily on international routes, functions include managing arrival and departure slots at airports and settling receivables and payables among airline companies. Approximately 290 airlines are IATA members. ICAO The International Civil Aviation Organization. A specialized agency of the United Nations created in 1944 to promote the safe and orderly develop- ment of international civil aviation. More than 190 countries are ICAO members. Star Alliance Established in 1997, Star Alliance was the first and is the world’s largest airline alliance. ANA became a member in October 1999. As of July 2022, 26 airlines from around the world are members. Code-Sharing A system in which airline alliance partners allow each other to add their own flight numbers on other partners’ scheduled flights. The frequent result is that multiple companies sell seats on one flight. Also known as jointly operated flights. Antitrust Immunity (ATI) Granting of advance approval for immunity from competition laws when airlines operating international routes cooperate on planning routes, setting fares, conducting marketing activities, or other areas, so that the airlines are not in violation of the competition laws of such countries. In Japan, the United States, and South Korea, the relevant department of transportation grants ATI based on an application (in countries other than these three, it is common for a bureau such as a fair trade commission to be in charge), but in the European Union the business itself performs a self-assessment based on the law. ATI approval is generally based on the two conditions that the parties do not have the power to control the market and approval will increase user convenience. 120 121 Financial / Data Section
