A n n u a l R e p o r t 2 0 2 3 Annual Report 2023 Fiscal 2022 (Year ended March 2023) Management Vision Uniting the World in Wonder ANA inspires our employees, customers, and society to explore endless possibilities with diverse connections that begin in the sky. ‘Waku waku’ is what moves people to push what’s possible. It’s Japanese for the joy and excitement of discovering the unknown. And when passed from person to person, becomes a force that creates a brighter world, united in wonder. The sky is full of possibilities, which has allowed us to bring together people, products and experiences for decades. Now, we’re expanding our horizons and spreading ‘waku waku’ across the world. So, we wonder, can we make travel more enjoyable? Can we renew the way we transport products? Can we bring excitement to life, while being kind to the earth? Together with an elevated experience in the sky, we can explore more incredible discoveries that will lead to a better tomorrow. Here is where our new adventure begins. When people connect across borders and unite beyond countries, the world offers endless opportunities. Together, let our hearts wonder and fill the world with ‘waku waku.’ 1 Contents 04 Management Message 10 The ANA Group Value Creation Process 16 Business Strategy 18 32 38 FY2023-25 ANA Group Corporate Strategy Business Strategy Special Feature: A New Brand: AirJapan 42 Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation 44 ANA Group ESG Management 48 Materiality 74 Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement 76 80 84 86 Safety Human Capital Digital Transformation (DX) Risk Management 88 Compliance 90 Corporate Governance 102 Trust Building with Stakeholders 106 Responsible Dialogue with Stakeholders 108 Message from the Independent Outside Directors 113 Message from Chair of the Board of Directors 114 Financial / Data Section Contents of This Report The ANA Group (ANA HOLDINGS INC. and its consolidated subsidiaries) strives to create social value and economic value, leveraging the strengths we have cultivated based on the spirit of our founders.

The recovery in busi- ness demand has slowed in our domestic passenger business. At the same time, leisure demand now exceeds pre-COVID-19 levels. We also expect an increased use of domestic travel by visitors to Japan in the future. The other day, I invited an overseas friend with whom I have been close for many years to my hometown, Kakeroma Island in the Amami Archipelago. He was impressed by the natural beauty of the island, which is registered as a World Natural Heritage site, the clean air, clear waters, and many native species of plants and wildlife. Every region of Japan has its own appeal. By attracting tourists, including visitors from foreign countries, we will con- tribute to solving rural issues such as population decline and economic contraction. In our cargo busi- ness, we entered into an agreement in July 2023 to purchase all shares of Nippon Cargo Airlines (NCA) from NYK Line. NCA is an airline specializing in cargo transportation, operating wide-body freighters on long-haul routes in Europe and the U.S. Combining NCA with our own cargo business, which is strong in China and Asia, we believe we can create an optimal balance in our network.

We respect and value people, not only our employ- ees but also their families and everyone involved in the supply chain who supports our businesses. Our ulti- mate goal is the happiness of all people in and around the ANA Group. Through the experience of the COVID-19 pandemic, I came to realize that in the process of achieving this goal, it is the everyday actions of group employees that raise corporate sus- tainability. These actions include building deep rela- tionships of trust with a long list of stakeholders, including customers, business partners, partner air- lines, national and local governments, financial institu- tions, and shareholders. The Urgency in Responding to Environmental Issues The second point is accelerating our environmental responsiveness. In October 2022, the ICAO General Assembly tightened CORSIA*1 rules. As a result, it is an almost certainty that member airlines will be obligated to offset carbon emissions beginning in 2024. The ANA Group updated our transition scenarios accordingly, and we are implementing fuel savings through operational improvements as one of numerous measures. However, catching up with international expectations in the speed of CO2 reductions through self-help efforts alone will be a challenge. We are preparing for the use of carbon credits to a certain extent and engaging in deeper discussions with stakeholders, including the government and oil wholesalers, on the use of SAF*2. SAF is the most prom- ising future response measure, and we are consulting with these parties to establish a system for a stable *1 CORSIA: Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation *2 SAF: Sustainable aviation fuel Accelerating Digital Transformation for Customer and Employee Experience The third point is fostering human resources for digital transformation (DX). Digital transformation is one of our most important management foundations. We plan to collaborate and utilize data across the ANA Group, training digital human resources and making necessary investments. For example, we can use data for in-flight and call center customer service or to maximize revenues by promoting cross-use among economic zone services. As a measure to improve customer experience (CX), we believe in raising the overall value of the experi- ence, from pre-travel through post-travel, rather than focusing on specific points of interaction, such as at the airport and in-flight. We believe this comprehen- sive approach will lead to enhanced competitiveness. Our new ANA Smart Travel service model allows cus- tomers to use smartphones in all travel scenarios, making the air travel experience smooth and stress- free. At the same time, automation and self-service for related travel procedures will enhance employee expe- rience (EX), allowing our employees to focus on ser- vices that only people can provide. However, in terms of DX, we feel there are many areas for improvement compared to global competitors. These areas include user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) design. By accelerating DX, including the rapidly advancing area of generative AI, we believe we will achieve business process transformation beyond mere IT. New ideas will increase customer convenience while improving supply of SAF at competitive prices and quality. Whether employee work comfort and productivity. Building Trust with Stakeholders for Renewed Growth External constraints continue, including extended cost increases due to rising prices. However, we rerouting around Russian airspace and unavoidable intend to deepen trust with stakeholders who demic. One of the most gratifying developments was I ask for your continued support and encouragement. the comments we received in response to our reduc- tion of employee wages and bonuses during the pan- demic. Many stakeholders were aware of the importance of short-term performance, but asked us to restore wages and bonuses as quickly as possible to ensure growth over the medium to long term. The reality was opposite, in fact, as many ANA Group employees indicated that, even though the reduction of wages would be painful, it was unavoidable at a time when shareholders continued to receive no divi- dend payments. Other feedback reflected consider- ations of investors, who would likely want to see the group reduce costs as much as possible to improve performance, and who would likely react negatively to wage increases. When we communicated the volume of supportive feedback from shareholders and inves- tors to one employee, she said that the kind words motivated her to work even harder. In fiscal 2022, we made the difficult decision to forgo dividends to priori- tize the recovery of wages for our employees. As our business performance has begun to improve, we hope to resume dividends at the earliest possible time for our shareholders who have so warmly watched and supported the ANA Group throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. United in Purpose for Renewed Growth With the COVID-19 pandemic, I was reminded once again that the shared aspirations of management and employees are what drive our company. No matter what the challenge, we cannot take a single step for- ward without the help of our employees. I believe my most important role is to unite the 40,000 ANA Group employees around the world in purpose, setting the stage for each employee to work with drive and energy. My personal motto is kofu yukei (never take shortcuts) from the Analects of Confucius. Teaching respect for a just cause and traveling the “royal road” in a fair and honest manner applies to the essence of our work. I tell group employees to follow the path in August 2023 SHIBATA Koji President & Chief Executive Officer 8 9 Management Message The Source of Value Creation: Leveraging the Power of People and the Capabilities of Our Organization ANA’s Way, our group action guideline, carries the spirit of our founder as expressed through the concepts of Hardship Now, Yet Hope for the Future and Wakyo (close cooperation). Our strength is the power of people, brought to the fore when our diverse human resources practice ANA’s Way in their daily activities. Employees share the insights gained through their efforts and challenges with their peers, leading to a cycle of new value creation as we involve others actively in the pursuit of our busi- ness. Through this virtuous cycle, the ANA Group corporate culture of mutual interest, recognition, and collaboration across company and job boundaries demonstrates the capabilities of our organization. The ANA Group believes that maximizing the power of people and the capabilities of our organization is the most essential factor in sustainable value creation. Just as an aircraft cannot be operated by a single employee alone, our business requires staff who share the same values to cooperate and provide services while never compromising on quality. This power of people and the capabilities of our organization create a unique synergistic effect. Anshin, Attaka, Akaruku-genki! (Trustworthy, Heartwarming, Energetic!) —ANA’s Way— Safety Customer Orientation Social Responsibility Team Spirit Endeavor Create Endeavor and Endeavor and Challenge Challenge Capabilities of Our Organization The Power of People Hardship Now, Hardship Now, Yet Hope for Yet Hope for the Future the Future ANA’s Way Notice Notice Involve Involve The Power of People and the Capabilities of Our Organization: Notice, Involve, and Create The cornerstone of safe, high-quality services at the ANA Group is the broad collaboration of diverse human resources across organizational boundaries. We have created an environment in which the power of people and the capabilities of our organization are clearly visible on a daily basis. As an example, when flight dispatchers and operations support staff notice weather conditions or points enroute likely to cause turbulence, they share this information with the pilots before the flight and work with the flight attendants on board to develop measures together for safety and security. This flow of cross-departmental communications, cross-organizational cooperation to solve problems, and collaboration to create the best pos- sible service is not specific to jobs or issues. This flow is rooted deeply in the corporate culture of the ANA Group, and it is the reason why the power of people and the capabilities of our organization support value creation. “Hardship Now, Yet Hope for the Future” “Wakyo” (Close Cooperation) “Trust and love are the threads that weave a beautiful world” A Spirit Inherited from the Time of Our Founding With just two helicopters, ANA began operations in 1952 as Japan’s first purely commercial airline. The words of our founder, Hardship Now, Yet Hope for the Future, express our 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. As in the past, our employees today continue to take on all challenges with these words in their hearts. Embracing Wakyo (close cooperation), we conduct ourselves through genuine discussions and concerted action to achieve our goals. This approach forms the source of the ANA Group value. 10 11 The ANA Group Value Creation Process The Value Creation Process External Environment Risks and Opportunities Reinvest Expanded Capital FY2023-25 ANA Group Corporate Strategy 1.

In this way, we will accelerate the value creation cycle at the ANA Group. 12 13 The ANA Group Value Creation Process Creating Social Value and Economic Value in Parallel For the ANA Group to create value sustainably and continue to be the preferred choice of customers, we must address environmental and social issues from a global perspective, while at the same time executing business and financial strategies. To this end, we pursue our management strategy while clarifying the specific forms and goals for each materiality that guides ESG management. And by creating social value and economic value simultaneously, we will achieve our Management Vision for the year 2030, contributing to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and delivering the sustainable enhancement of corporate value.

The ANA Group and our DNA to Challenge continue to evolve toward the year 2030, and this vision expresses our desire to fill the world with wonder and joy by making new challenges and creating possibilities together with our stakeholders around the world. The ANA Group of today was founded in the airline business. And we will continue to create new encounters and connections among people, goods, and services, growing our business through next-generation mobility, an expanding economic sphere touching daily lives, and the challenge to create new models through cross-border open innovation. This new Management Vision, created through discussions among the 40,000 ANA Group employees about their future aspirations, also provides a roadmap for enhancing corporate value. We will achieve sustainable growth through the collective efforts of the ANA Group, each employee sharing this belief, strengthening in unity, and pursuing the FY2023-25 ANA Group Corporate Strategy tirelessly. Growing and Reinvesting the ANA Group Capitals Among the diverse capitals created through our unique business model, our critical strengths lie in chosen and trusted group quality and strong relationships with stakeholders. We view these strengths as distinctive capitals in executing our strategy and moving along the value creation cycle.

In late June, we began placing Boeing 777 aircraft with refurbished engines and designed with Japanese domestic route specifications into service. In the third quarter, all 15 Boeing 777 aircraft became available for operations. During the quarter, we shifted to wide-body aircraft and added extra flights, mainly on weekends, during the year-end and New Year holidays, and spring break. In January and February 2023, ANA endeavored to maximize revenues by capturing recovering demand and conducting promotions to stimulate demand, including a ¥7,000 one-way flight to any domestic destina- tion, a project to commemorate the ANA 70th anniversary. In this way, ANA sought to attract new customers and recover past users. In terms of sales and service, ANA launched a new con- cept called The Premium Kitchen for in-flight meals in pre- mium class on domestic flights in December. ANA updated menu choices based on customer feedback, and dispos- able plastic containers used for in-flight meals were replaced with paper containers, etc., to promote ESG initia- tives further. As a result, passenger numbers for the ANA Domestic Passenger Business in fiscal 2022 amounted to 34.53 mil- lion (up 92.3% year on year), and operating revenues amounted to ¥529.5 billion (up 89.2%). Fiscal 2023 Business Policies As people transition to with-COVID-19 lifestyles, we expect leisure demand on domestic routes and the use of domestic routes by inbound visitors to Japan to expand, while busi- ness demand should also recover gradually. ANA will main- tain the Haneda and Itami routes as trunk routes, while optimizing the division of flights based on a business plan developed together with Peach to create a streamlined and efficient route network focused on profitability. We will also endeavor to improve customer convenience and business efficiency through the use of ANA Smart Travel and other digital technologies, while ensuring that we capture recover- ing demand and maximize revenues.

ANA 180 300 250 decreased the number of cargo-only flights using passenger 120 200 aircraft to strengthen our response to passenger demand. At the same time, we captured trilateral cargo from China to North America, making maximum use of freighters, even as demand for major commodities such as automobile-related 150 60 100 parts, semiconductors, and electronic components weak- 0 ened. We also stepped up sales efforts by capturing demand for high-unit-price products and large-lot demand, supported by high-quality operations we demonstrated in transporting vaccines and other products during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, ANA International Cargo volume in fiscal 2022 was 0.805 million tons (down 17.5% year on year), and operating revenues amounted to ¥308.0 billion (down 6.3%). Fiscal 2023 Business Policies We expect demand for major commodities to increase gradually throughout the second half of the year, even as an adjustment phase continues in the first half. While keeping a close eye on cargo market conditions, we will schedule freighter flights on a monthly basis according to customer needs, ensuring capacity to maximize revenues. We will also develop demand for specific customers and specific commodities that are less susceptible to market fluctuations to stabilize earnings over the medium to long term. In July 2023, we announced a final agreement with NYK Line to acquire all Nippon Cargo Airlines (NCA) shares from NYK. We intend to launch a full-scale study on new busi- ness development for our cargo business in the post- COVID-19 era. 246 96 93 50 0 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 (FY) Boeing 777F aircraft Semiconductor manufacturing equipment Complete vehicles The Premium Kitchen Large animals Major commodities targeted for freighter transportation 34 35 Business Strategy Air Transportation Business LCC (Peach) Increasing Revenues by Raising the Ratio of International Routes in Full-Scale Recovery; LCC Results Revenues ASK RPK (Index) Fiscal 2018 = 100 125 100 75 50 25 0 101 87 96 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 (FY) Non-Air Businesses Concentrating Resources on Core Businesses in the Non-Air Business Segment, While Strengthening Efforts to Expand Non-Air Business Revenue Domains Airline Related Fiscal 2022 revenues increased to ¥247.1 billion (up 19.5% Airline Related: Operating Revenues year on year), and operating income rose to ¥2.3 billion (compared to an operating loss of ¥0.6 billion in the previ- ous fiscal year). This result was mainly due to an increase in passenger check-in, baggage loading and other ground handling work, in-flight meal production, etc., in connection with deregulation in Japan and other countries. With the recovery in passenger demand, we expect to expand the scale of our operations, including those for overseas airlines, in fiscal 2023.

As a result, operating revenues amounted to ¥103.2 billion (up 26.4% year on year), while operating income came to ¥3.5 billion (up 539.5%). We will strive to improve airport retail and electronics business profitability further in fiscal 2023, against the backdrop of recovering passenger demand, particularly for inbound travel to Japan, and solid demand for semiconductors.

These efforts included increasing the number of flights on the Narita–Sapporo (New Chitose) and Narita– Fukuoka routes. In terms of international routes, we resumed international operation for Kansai–Incheon at the end of August 2022 for the first time in 16 months. Demand for inbound travel to Japan recovered quickly once Japan eased border measures. Peach has continued to expand its route network by resuming the Kansai–Taipei and the Haneda–Incheon routes, and by opening a new Kansai– Bangkok route, representing Peach’s first mid-range inter- national route. In terms of sales and services, Peach expanded availabil- ity of the Tabi Kuji ticket introduced in the previous fiscal year, to other areas, including Okinawa and Sendai. Under the Tabi Kuji ticket, customers purchase tickets but cannot select their destination. New packaged products include Kaiun Tabi Kuji, introduced in August 2022, and Yadotsuki Tabi Kuji, introduced in February 2023. In this way, we have endeavored to create new demand by offering travel experi- ences that introduce an element of chance in destination. As a result, LCC passenger numbers in fiscal 2022 amounted to 7.77 million (up 82.2% year on year), and operating revenues totaled ¥90.2 billion (up 138.7%). Fiscal 2023 Business Policies We intend to restructure domestic routes into a leaner, more profitable network while continuing to utilize early morning and late night flight schedules. Peach will gradually expand capacity in stages on inter- national routes. In March, Peach opened a new Nagoya (Chubu)–Taipei route, which was the first international route for Peach out of Nagoya (Chubu) Airport. In May, we began operation on the Kansai–Shanghai and Haneda–Shanghai routes, followed by the June increase in Narita–Taipei route flights. We will increase the resource allocation to interna- tional flights as we resume full-scale operations. At the same time, we intend to improve aircraft utilization while capturing leisure demand originating from Japan and inbound demand to Japan. 36 37 Business Strategy Business Strategy Special Feature A New Brand: With experts predicting structural changes in medium- to long-term airline demand in the wake of COVID-19, the ANA Group is determined to strengthen our airline business by establishing a new brand to cover future areas of growth and optimize our multi-brand approach. AirJapan will be the third brand under the ANA Group, standing next to ANA and Peach. Air Japan Co., Ltd., which has been serving Asian routes for more than 20 years, will operate AirJapan as a dedicated international airline under the ANA Group. We are in the final stages of launch preparation for the Narita–Bangkok route, scheduled to begin service on February 9, 2024. Company Overview (as of July 2023) Company name: Air Japan Co., Ltd.

We expect Southeast Asia, in particular, to demonstrate growth potential as a high-volume market similar to East Asia. We base this expectation on economic growth, population growth, and the resulting formation of a broad middle class. Targets AirJapan will focus on attracting passengers visiting Japan from Southeast Asia and other regions. AirJapan intends to differentiate from overseas competitors through a unique sense of Japaneseness that reflects the insights of visitors to Japan. * VFR: Visiting Friends and Relatives No. of Foreign Visitors to Japan No. of Tourists Visiting Japan Southeast Asia East Asia Other Parts of Asia Outside of Asia Southeast Asia East Asia Other Parts of Asia Outside of Asia (Index) Fiscal 2006 = 100 (Index) Fiscal 2006 = 100 180 120 60 800 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 0 754 487 421 243 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 (FY) 180 120 60 0 1,100 1,000 900 800 700 600 500 400 300 200 100 0 1,095 784 600 342 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 (FY) Source: Japan National Tourism Organization (JNTO) A Hybrid Airline Business Model Fleet Network Human Resources Safety Operating under the same safety and operational standards as the ANA Brand Comfort Convenience Offering in-flight comfort with wider seat pitch, etc. Profitability Using modified aircraft from ANA to reduce initial investment Serving Southeast Asia and other routes that have a large market for inbound visitors to Japan Pursuing aircraft operation efficiencies, etc., by operating flights from the Tokyo metro and Kansai regions Offering a quality of service honed through ANA Brand operations Utilizing ANA Group FSC and LCC expertise Pursuing a business model that combines the advantages of a full service carrier (FSC) and an LCC 38 39 Business Strategy Special Feature Unique Japanese Omotenashi (Hospitality) We offer unique value to overseas customers visiting Japan, helping them experience Japan from the very first steps of their trip. Seats For mid-range flights in Southeast Asia and other regions, we designed a 324-seat all-economy cabin offering an environment com- fortable for more passengers. At a 32-inch seat pitch (seat distance), our seats are wider than the same class of an FSC’s economy seats. We also designed the seat to recline deeper, allowing passengers to relax, even on long flights. All seats are equipped with type-A and type-C USB ports and tablet holders for passenger comfort when using personal smartphones and tablets. Uniforms AirJapan flight attendants collaborated in the production of the brand’s iconic uniforms from the conceptual stages. These uniforms embody the character of AirJapan in design and func- tionality. The uniform incorporates traditional Japanese cultural elements, such as knots and layers, to give overseas passengers a sense of Japaneseness from the moment they board the aircraft. In addition, we designed the uniform to be borderless, which means it can be worn in one’s personal style regardless of gender and encourages the activity of our diverse human resources. In consideration of environmental issues such as clothing loss, etc., AirJapan intends to use uniform jackets and bottoms as shared items to minimize resources used. Background Music We created boarding music in collaboration with Tokyo University of the Arts to welcome pas- sengers on board. Leading Japanese musicians and students of Tokyo University of the Arts performed the music, which features the distinctive Japanese sounds of the shakuhachi flute and the koto. In-Flight Meals In-flight meals will be available for pre-purchase and as in-flight purchase options. AirJapan will offer a menu highlighting Japanese food culture, with food from various regions of Japan. We expect these meals will be new discoveries for both Japanese passengers and visitors bound for Japan and allow us to offer the delicious tastes of Japan from the sky. In-flight pur- chase options will include retort-pouch and freeze-dried foods that can be preserved for an extended period of time. These meals remain delicious thanks to Japan’s excellent food pro- cessing technology, reducing food loss. In-Flight Entertainment Passengers will have access to movies and other video content on board using their own devices. In addition to new Hollywood movies, travelers will enjoy kids’ content and AirJapan original videos. MINEGUCHI Hideki President and CEO Air Japan Co., Ltd.

We even shortened the work hours of our flight attendants or transferred them to outside companies. In anticipation of the end of COVID-19 and a signifi- cant increase in foreign inbound travel to Japan, we decided to launch AirJapan as a third airline brand of the ANA Group. This new brand is our response to the business opportunities in the post-COVID-19 era, and we are preparing to launch the business in February 2024. The AirJapan brand will use the ANA Group’s flag- ship Boeing 787 aircraft, beginning with flights from 40 41 Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation The ANA Group aims to create sustainable societies and enhance corporate value as a company that continues to grow together with society by resolving social issues through business operations leading to a world of wonder for all. 42 42 43 ANA Group ESG Management The ANA Group’s new management vision is Uniting the World in Wonder. We aim to be a company that grows together with society by resolving global environmental and social issues through business in a way that is unique to the ANA Group. We will aim to resolve materiality to the Group and achieve the simultaneous creation of social value and economic value by identifying and incorporating those issues into our business strategies and plans. Identification of Materiality In fiscal 2022, the ANA Group reviewed the materiality to be addressed through redefining the FY2023-25 ANA Group Corporate Strategy, which was also set to realize its new management vision. Since fiscal 2020, we have united as a group and overcome company crises among impacts of COVID-19 and unpre- dictable changes in the global environment through the ingenuity, motivation, and autonomy of each employee. The power of people and the capabilities of our organization stems from our human resources. We believe that strengthening the Identified Material Issues and Specific Initiatives Materiality Specific Initiatives Relevant SDGs • Achieve ANA Group 2030 medium- term targets and 2050 long-term Environment • Reduce CO2 emissions environmental goals • Reduce resource waste ratio • Disclose information in line with the • Reduce food waste ratio TCFD recommendations • Conserve biodiversity • Contribute to biodiversity conserva- 2030 2050 tion through initiatives such as those aimed at preventing wildlife trafficking investment in our human capital will enable them to leverage their individual and diverse strengths to drive change, thus People supporting the medium- to long-term sustainable growth of the Company. In light of this, we added human resources as a material issue, as they have also historically served as the foundation of value creation for the ANA Group. Other material- ity identified include environment, people (human resources, DEI, and human rights), and regional development. We use the following process to identify materiality to be addressed by the Group. (1) Identify long-term issues facing global society and determine whether these issues are sustainable and consistent with our mission statement and corporate strategies (2) Analyze whether we can contribute to the resolution of these issues through our business activities from the perspec- tives of our mission statement, corporate strategy, ANA Group strengths, and social trends (3) Determine degree of importance and identify materiality through mapping issues on two axes: one representing the impact on group business (management axis), and the other representing the impact on society and the environment, or stakeholder interest (society axis). Materiality is discussed and deliberated at the Group Management Committee and submitted to the Board of Directors. We periodically review the appropriateness of our material issues through discussions and information gatherings with both internal and external stakeholders as we consequently repeat the process of identifying material issues to resolve. This process enables us to scrutinize whether material issues are consistent with global affairs, the environment, and our corporate strategy.

Through dia- logues with stakeholders, it is essential for the group to understand the latest social needs and changing interests to accurately understand the social expectations of the group and our responses to social issues. We evaluate the risks and opportunities for our business and society based on the social demands we receive through these discussions. After debating the risks and oppor- tunities at management meetings and other forums, the group incorporates them into its corporate strategy and reflects them in specific initiatives. The ANA Group transparently discloses its goals, their progress, and the results of group efforts on its corpo- rate website and in other media as necessary. We engage in deeper dialogue with our stakeholders through information disclo- sures, reporting our progress and confirming the appropriateness of our initiatives in those discussions. ESG Management Implementation Structure We established the Group ESG Management Promotion Committee to address various ESG management issues. The commit- tee is overseen by the President & Chief Executive Officer of ANA HOLDINGS INC., and chaired by the Chief ESG Promotion Officer (CEPO), the director in charge of group ESG management. Members include group company directors and executive officers, as well as the full-time Audit & Supervisory Board members. The ESG Management Promotion Committee convenes four times a year to discuss important policies and measures and monitor target progress. Material issues related to corporate strategy are discussed at the Group Management Committee and submitted to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors sets groupwide management policies and goals on issues such as ESG management, while supervising the management and business execution of each group company. Each group company appoints an ESG Promotion Officer (EPO) as the person responsible for promoting ESG management and a member of the Group ESG Management Promotion Committee. At the same time, they appoint an ESG Promotion Leader (EPL) at each company and department to lead the ESG activities of their respective organization. Matters discussed, resolved, and reported by the Board of Directors, the Group Management Committee, and the Group ESG Management Promotion Committee are shared and implemented throughout the Group in close cooperation with each EPO and EPL. We hold EPL meetings twice a year to share comprehensive information and promote initiatives within each Group company and department. Furthermore, we aim to objectively and multilaterally monitor the status of ESG management execution to achieve sustain- able growth as a company and enhance corporate value over the medium to long term. For that purpose, we employ evaluation indicators, such as external ESG evaluation, and reflect them in officer remuneration. See P.107 for more on external evaluations.

The ESG Management Promotion Committee discusses strategies, which are then deliber- ated and resolved by the Group Management Committee and the Board of Directors. Upon their resolution, we formulate strategy policies for the next fiscal year. ESG Promotion Leader (EPL) Group Companies and Departments 46 The ESG management promotion cycle begins with dialogue with external stakeholders. Based on the information obtained from the dialogue, we strive to not only comply with relevant global laws and norms but also accurately understand the impact that changing social conditions have on our business. We then work to resolve materiality based on our understanding of societal demands and expectations. The group also holds dialogues with internal and external stakeholders through information disclosures to ensure our efforts are appropriate. This two-way communication holds us accountable and ensures we maintain management transparency.

In November 2022, we became the first airline in Asia to receive the certification from SBTi for our fiscal 2030 greenhouse gas emission reduction targets. • TCFD We analyze the risks and opportunities that climate change poses to the ANA Group’s Air Transportation Business and disclose information in accordance with the guidelines. (Details on P.70) 47 Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation Materiality People Basic Approach We define people as a materiality at the ANA Group (human resources, DEI, and human rights). During the COVID-19 pandemic, we reaffirmed that human resources, added recently as a materiality, is a source of ANA Group value creation. We must invest more in people if we are to return to a path of growth. Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is a groupwide effort under which we develop human resources for sustainable growth and to respond to the diversity of our customers. Meanwhile, ANA Group business operations impact the human rights of a variety of stakeholders. We take appropriate measures to respect the human rights of group employees as well as the rights of people in our supply chain. By appropriately addressing people issues, we aim to enhance corporate value sustainably, enriching the lives of our employees, their families, and others whose lives we impact. CHO Message We create environments in which ANA Group employees work with vitality and enthusiasm to achieve sustainable corporate value enhancement and personal well-being.

Our analysis showed that pride in working for the ANA Group and job satisfac- tion and sense of accomplishment correlated with operating income per employee for each fiscal year in question. We linked issues identified from responses to the ANA’s Way Survey with the priority measures of comfortable workplaces, fulfilling work, and continued evolution of corporate culture. To identify changes in employee awareness in a more timely manner, we added a new quarterly Pulse Survey in fiscal 2023. We plan to take flexible action as needed in response to these surveys.

Comfortable Workplaces Fulfilling Work Continued Evolution of Corporate Culture Initiatives to Strengthen People and Organizations Comfortable Workplaces Health Management*1 Initiatives The ANA Group issued the ANA Group Health Management Declaration in April 2016. We create environments in which employees work with vitality and enthusiasm in mental and physical health, aiming to enhance corporate value and improve employee quality of life. In recognition of past groupwide initiatives (ANA Group Exercise, occupational health staff seminars, etc.), we were awarded the Health & Productivity Stock Selection 2023*2. In addition, eight ANA Group companies were recog- nized as 2023 Certified Health and Productivity Management Outstanding Organizations (White 500)*3. *1 Health Management is a registered trademark of NPO Kenkokeiei Kenkyukai *2 Health & Productivity Stock Selection companies are companies listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange that consider the health management of their employees from a strategic managerial perspective.

The top 500 companies among those selected as outstanding organizations are included in the White 500. ANA Group FY2023-29 Medium-Term Health Management Plan We recently formulated the ANA Group FY2023-29 Medium-Term Health Management Plan. Targeting March 2030 (end of fiscal 2029), we intend to strengthen our health management initiatives in line with five key categories. We continue to assign the role of Chief Wellness Officer (CWO) to the director in charge of ANA Group human resources and labor affairs. The CWO is responsible for health management across the group. We clarify the structure for health management at each group company and continue to engage in health management at all group companies.

We take action to review personnel and support systems, build capacity, and ANA Group*1 foster awareness to ensure diversity in Group decision-making, as well ANA as aid the autonomous growth of employees.

Efforts include expanding our partner system and addressing discrimi- nation. 35 Group companies were awarded a rating of Gold in the PRIDE Index*2, an evaluation index for corporate actions related to LGBTQ+. ANA has received this award for seven consecutive years. Employment of People with Disabilities The ANA Group established the team for specially promoting employment of people with disabilities in 2012. This team focuses on encouraging the employment of people with disabilities by strengthening cooperation throughout the Group through regular meetings and seminars. The ANA Group 36K-Employee Kickoff Group code of conduct on the employment of people with disabilities, formulated in 2015, is a shared commitment of all Group employees to promote a proper understanding of reasonable accommodation from both tangible and intangible perspectives. Under this code, we will work to improve society through the creation of a workplace where everyone can demonstrate their strengths and play an active role. Employment rate of people with disabilities as of June 1, 2023*3 2.72% All 40 Group companies achieved the legally mandated employment ratio. *1 Total of 38 companies: ANA HOLDINGS INC., 36 companies subject to our management rules, and ANA Wing Fellows Vie Oji Co., Ltd. *2 Organized by work with Pride *3 Total of ANA HOLDINGS INC, ANA, and qualified ANA Group companies 2 Universal Service Initiatives: https://www.ana.co.jp/group/en/csr/customer_diversity/ As customer values diversify and the social environment changes, continuing to be chosen and trusted by all customers is crucial for the future growth of the ANA Group.

We are working to prevent the occurrence Please visit our corporate website for more: https://www.ana.co.jp/group/en/csr/human_rights/ https://www.ana.co.jp/group/en/csr/supply_chain_management/ The ANA Group has a wide range of business operations which have the potential to impact the human rights of our of risks with regard to the areas we have identified. stakeholders. 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 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 2018, aiming to promote communication with stake- holders through active dissemination of our initiatives to respect human rights. The group has continued to issue human rights reports since that time. This year, we will again issue a human rights report describing our current efforts.

Human Rights and Environmental Due Diligence Workshops In July 2022, the ANA Group established an organization-wide forum to discuss and confirm concerns regarding potential risk factors from the perspective of human rights and the environment across the businesses that the group develops and executes. Representatives from more than 35 group companies and internal departments gathered to identify potential issues in the presence of representatives from the Caux Round Table (CRT Japan)*3 and Conservation International Japan*4, a third-party organization. After the forum, we held dialogues with domestic and international experts to identify new human rights and environmental issues where we should focus future efforts.

Particularly in terms of human rights and the environment, we now request more extensive and detailed information from suppliers compared to our previous ANA Group Purchasing Policy. In accordance with the ANA Group Procurement Policy, we managers (approximately 100 people).

The ANA Group also conducts periodic training to ensure a broader understanding of our procurement policy. In fiscal 2022, we held training three times for ANA Group procurement Information session for Toyo-Sasaki Glass Co., Ltd. (Supplier) 59 Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation Materiality Environment Basic Approach As a company whose core business is air transportation, the ANA Group recognizes the urgency in reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for sustainable business growth and as our contribution to society. Inspired by this recognition, we established the ANA Group Environmental Policies, 2050 Environmental Goals, and 2030 Environmental Targets. We pursue strategic initiatives to achieve a balance between our medium- to long-term corporate aspirations and short-term growth, aiming to enhance corporate value on a sustainable basis. Progress in Medium- to Long-Term Environmental Goals and FY2022 Results In 2021, we announced our 2050 Environmental Goals and plan to achieve net zero carbon emissions by fiscal 2050. We also formu- lated the 2030 Environmental Targets as a roadmap toward this goal. In May 2023, we updated our target for fiscal 2030 CO2 emissions from flight operations. We will promote initiatives to reduce our environmental impact over both the medium and long term, using our fiscal 2019 results as a benchmark and monitoring progress every year. Targets CSO Message We will create an environment and accelerate efforts to achieve our fiscal 2030 targets to realize net zero emissions by fiscal 2050.

By fiscal 2030, more than 10% fuel used will be replaced with SAF, and by fiscal 2050 nearly all fuel in use will be low-carbon. Expanding SAF Procurement Options Overseas Strengthening Partnerships • In fiscal 2020, ANA began a strategic alliance with Finland‐based SAF manufacturer NESTE for medium- to long-term supply, pur- As we must accelerate efforts not only through public-private partnerships but also through our entire supply chain, we are working chasing and importing SAF on a commercial scale for use on scheduled flights departing from Haneda and Narita airports. with stakeholders even more closely to establish a supply chain and ensure a stable supply of SAF. • In December 2022, the ANA Group and the Japan Overseas Infrastructure Investment Corporation for Transport & Urban Development (JOIN) signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to collaborate on a project that aims to manufacture and procure SAF overseas. Under this MOU, JOIN will expand opportunities to invest in SAF-related projects overseas while ANA will expand SAF Ensuring a Stable Supply of Domestically Produced SAF procurement options. Public-Private Partnerships The Public-Private Council on Promoting the Adoption of Sustainable Aircraft Fuel (SAF) of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism; Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry; Ministry of the Environment; Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries To achieve the ANA Group environmental target of replacing at least 10% of fuel used with SAF by 2030, we must establish a business environment that allows SAF refueling in Japan. A public-private partnership council, including the relevant ministries and agencies, oil wholesalers, and other suppliers, confirmed the need to secure sufficient SAF production capacity and supply chain for raw materials and to establish a system ensuring a stable supply of SAF at internationally competitive prices. In addition, the council confirmed that the government will consider active support for SAF through regulations targeting 10% of fuel supplied to Japanese airports to be SAF by 2030. Specific Initiatives Procuring SAF Blended in Japan A proof-of-concept project of the Public-Private Council on Promoting the Adoption of Sustainable Aircraft Fuel (SAF) led by the Civil Aviation Bureau of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, imported neat SAF* to blend with jet fuel in Japan. This project fos- tered a significant advancement in the supply chain for fueling aircraft, including the clarification of quality control procedures, customs clear- ance and bonding procedures, and safety in handling. ANA procures SAF blended in Japan through this project and uses this fuel on scheduled domestic and international flights departing from Haneda Issues Related to Domestic Blending Reduce GHG emissions and improve economic efficiencies Clarify quality management processes Confirm consistency with various laws and regulations • During fiscal 2023, ANA plans to procure SAF produced by LanzaJet in the U.S., produced using exhaust gas from steel mills and oil refineries, for use on flights departing from the U.S. • In January 2023, the ANA Group signed a memorandum of understanding with Raven SR of the U.S. and ITOCHU Corporation for SAF procurement. Raven SR manufactures SAF from municipal solid waste and other waste materials, which means a stable supply of SAF in certain quantities should be possible in the future. ANA is considering purchasing this SAF for use on flights departing the U.S. after 2025. Encouraging the Use of Synthetic Fuels Biomass, the primary raw material for SAF, is already used commercially. This raw material could become scarce in the future, requiring the rapid commercialization of synthetic fuels over the medium to long term. Synthetic fuels are artificial fuels made by synthesizing CO2 and hydrogen. In September 2021, ANA and six other companies collaborated on a proof-of-concept project that uses carbon and hydrogen sepa- rated and recovered from CO2 emission sources and the atmosphere as raw materials to produce SAF using a technology that synthe- sizes liquid hydrocarbons through a catalytic reaction. In September 2022, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, and other supply-side and demand-side entities (automobile industry, shipping industry, and aviation industry) established the Public-Private Council on the Promotion of Synthetic Fuel (E-fuel). This council addresses technical development and institutional issues under an integrated public-private partnership aiming for commercialization of e-fuel by the early 2030s. and Narita airports. * SAF before blending with jet fuel Promoting SAF and Reducing CO2 Emissions in the Supply Chain ACT FOR SKY, an Inter-Industry Collaboration to Promote Domestic SAF ACT FOR SKY is an all-Japan voluntary organization launched on March 2, 2022, consisting of 29 companies (as of July 2023), 20 of which are involved directly in domestically produced SAF as a business and represent the main actors in building the SAF supply chain. The other nine companies represent entities required to build the supply chain for domestically produced SAF. The organization aims to create a cross-sector movement of collaboration and action, transcending industry boundaries to commer- cialize, promote, and expand domestically produced SAF toward carbon-neutral skies. For more details regarding ACT FOR SKY (in Japanese only), please visit: https://actforsky.jp Participation in the Ministry of the Environment Decarbonization x Reconstruction Town Development Platform The ANA Group participates in the Decarbonization x Reconstruction Town Development Platform and the platform’s Working Group on Decarbonized Fuel, projects established recently by the Ministry of the Environment. We are helping with the recovery in selected areas through the use of low-carbon circular agriculture, biomass, and other materials for local production and local consumption of SAF and other decarbonized fuels, as well as the investigation of business models to solve issues in this area. SAF Flight Initiative In September 2021, ANA, together with companies that use airplanes for business trips and cargo transportation, launched the SAF Flight Initiative. This partnership is a program aiming for a sustainable future by visualizing CO2 emissions (Scope 3) throughout the supply chain and promoting the widespread use of SAF. Under this program, partners bear a portion of the costs related to SAF, and ANA issues a certificate of CO2 emissions reductions resulting from SAF usage. We received the 2022 Nikkei Excellent Products and Services Award for this business solution that, among other things, contributes to the achievement of Scope 3 reduction targets for partner companies and improves corporate value. As of March 2023, 13 companies have participated in the program, and we continue to invite new companies to join. 64 65 Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation Environment 3 Use of Emission Trading Schemes We intend to reduce CO2 emissions from flight operations through operational improvements, technological aircraft innovations, and low-carbon aviation fuels such as SAF. In the short to medium term, we are looking into the use of CO2 emissions trading schemes in consideration of business continuity. We plan to use high-quality carbon credits that mitigate the impact on climate change, biodiversity, and human rights, while also offering benefits such as economic contributions to local communities. 4 Utilization of Negative Emissions Technologies (NETs) For the remaining emissions not covered by SAF and other fuel reductions, we intend to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 through NETs. These technologies include direct air capture (DAC), which captures and removes CO2 directly from the atmosphere. In March 2022, ANA signed a basic agreement with Climeworks, a Swiss start-up company working on DAC. Under this agreement, we began researching high-quality, permanent CO2 removal technology. In August 2023, we became the first airline in the world to sign a procurement contract with 1PointFive of the U.S.. 1PointFive is constructing a DAC plant in Texas, U.S.A., which is expected to begin commercial operation by the end of 2025. ANA plans to procure more than 30,000 tons of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) credits over three years beginning 2025. DAC technology captures and removes large amounts of CO2 directly from the atmosphere and is an essential approach that diversi- fies the means to address CO2 emissions reduction in the difficult-to-decarbonize aviation industry. We will continue efforts to pursue DAC technology and industry development, diversifying decarbonization measures in our transition strategy to achieve the ANA Group’s medium- and long-term environmental goals.

This program is a mechanism that provides customers with opportunities to offset the amount of CO2 emitted by their aircraft. Our selection of offset programs are based on global certification standards. For more details, please visit: 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 corporate stance that emphasizes social responsibility, and we continue to work toward the creation of sustainable societies. 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. For the Eco-First Promise (in Japanese only), please visit: https://www.ana.co.jp/group/csr/environment/pdf/eco_first_2203.pdf Reduce CO2 Emissions from All Non-Aircraft Flight Operations The ANA Group implements appropriate energy management using our energy management system ANA Eiims based on our own Energy Management Standard. ANA and ANA Foods (specified business operators under the Act on the Rational Use of Energy) achieved energy reductions of 1% or more of fiscal 2021 targets, receiving Excellence in Energy Efficiency Award (S Class) certification under the Act on the Rational Use of Energy of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. ANA has received S Class certification for eight consecutive years since the establishment of the classification system. To achieve net zero CO2 non-aircraft emissions by fiscal 2050, we will work to reduce energy consumption by fiscal 2030, focusing on the use of electricity and vehicle fuel (gasoline and diesel fuel), which accounts for the majority of our total emissions. Electricity Vehicle Fuel 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, generating electricity from solar power. In addition, 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 renew- able energy across the ANA Group. Solar panels at ANA Blue Base We are upgrading our airport vehicles to hybrid vehicles (HVs), electric vehicles (EVs), fuel cell vehicles (FCVs), etc., in stages as appropriate. The ANA Group is the first company in Japan to introduce remote-controlled EVs (manufactured by Mototok of Germany) to tow passenger aircraft at airports. Since introducing the vehicles at Saga Airport in 2019, we have placed others into operation at several airports in Japan. In addition to contributing to the reduction of environmental impact, this system allows simpler remote control operation compared to conven- tional vehicles, leading to more efficient operations. Pushback using Mototok EVs 67 Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation Environment For more details regarding biodiversity conservation, please visit: https://www.ana.co.jp/group/en/csr/regional_creation/biodiversity/ 2 Reduce Resource Waste Ratio (Plastics, Paper, etc.) 4 Biodiversity Conservation The ANA Group pursues the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) + R (Renewable) to reduce our resource waste ratio. We encourage use Adopted in December 2022, the Kunming-Montreal Biodiversity Framework (GBF*1) included new global biodiversity goals. Under this reduction and recycling, especially of plastics and paper. Reduce the Use of Plastics We continue to make progress in replacing plastic products used in airport lounges and on flights with eco-friendly materials. In fiscal 2022, we replaced single-use plastic with paper for in-flight meal containers in premium class on domestic flights. We also switched from single-use to reusable containers for soup bowls and other products, reducing plastic waste by approximately 158 tons per year compared to fiscal 2019. Major Initiatives Establishing a Resource-Recycling Scheme for Air Cargo Plastic Film ANA launched a joint recycling scheme with Sojitz Pla-Net Corporation to collect used plastic air cargo film for recycling into products used by ANA. ANA collects used air cargo plastic film at airports in Japan, removes adhesive materials, and Recovery compresses the film. Separation and Compression Recovery Circular Recycling Use New Product Sojitz Pla-Net Corporation Sojitz Pla-Net collects the Recycling compressed plastic film and recycles the film into pellets. The company then delivers pellets to manufacturers of plastic goods used by ANA. 3 Reduce Food Waste Ratio (In-Flight / Airport Lounge Meals, etc.) The ANA Group is working to reduce our food waste ratio, such as in-flight meals. Food Loss Initiatives ANA launched a new service on international flights that allows passengers to choose a lighter meal service or no meal service for more freedom and comfort in-flight. In addition to offering options that meet customer needs, we work with customers to eliminate food waste by reducing the number of in-flight meals discarded without being served. Major Initiatives ANA Future Promise In June 2021, the ANA Group announced ANA Future Promise, a movement toward continued corporate growth to continue to the achievement of the SDGs together with our customers and society (Promise), aiming for sustainable growth (Future). In recognition of our efforts, we received the Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Award at the 31st Grand Prize for the Global Environment Awards. The Grand Prize for the Global Environment Awards was established in 1992 by the Fuji Sankei Group to encourage promoting industrial devel- opment in harmony with the global environment. In October 2022, we began flying special-livery aircraft as a symbol of the ANA Future Promise and as a means to put activities into practice. We have introduced numerous measures on a trial basis, including the use of in-flight service items made from sustainable materials (certain in-flight meal containers and cabin amenities), vegan leather headrest covers made from plant-derived materials, and the testing of riblet film applied to the surface of aircraft. We intend to expand the most effective measures to other aircraft and routes. For more details, please visit our official website: https://www.ana.co.jp/en/jp/brand/ ana-future-promise/ framework, the airline industry is responsible for 2030 goals, particularly goals to prevent illegal wildlife trade, minimize the impact of climate change on biodiversity, and reduce food waste. The ANA Group discloses our policies and systems to address biodiversity conservation. We strive to mitigate our impact on biodiversity through our business activities and contribute to the conservation of biodiversity. *1 Global Biodiversity Framework Initiatives through Business Activities | Avoid and Minimize | Preventing Wildlife Trafficking In March 2018, ANA became the first Japanese airline to sign the Buckingham Palace Declaration, which aims to eradicate wildlife trafficking as recommended by IATA. Since 2018, we have conducted annual seminars on border control measures in collaboration with the interna- tional NGO TRAFFIC*2. These seminars are part of our educational activities to prevent wildlife trafficking. A total of 840 people from ANA Group companies, including airport personnel and overseas branches, have participated in these events. *2 TRAFFIC: An international NGO that surveys and monitors wildlife trade. This NGO was established as a joint project of the World Wildlife Fund and International Union for Conservation of Nature, and the group operates through a worldwide network of bases in 10 regions. | Minimize | Food Residue Recycling System ANA Catering Service Co., Ltd., which produces in-flight meals for ANA, recycles 100% of food residue from the preparation of in-flight meals for use as compost and feed. The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, under the Act on Promotion of Recycling and Related Activities for Treatment of Cyclical Food Resources, approved the company’s recycling system. This system uses vegetables (soft kale) grown using compost from animal and plant residues discharged from the Narita Plant as ingredients for in-flight meals. In this way, the company provides chemical-free, safe vegetables for in-flight meals produced using safe soil consisting of compost derived from cooking residue. At the same time, the company contributes to the reduction of waste and conservation of biodiversity through food recycling. | Restoration | Restoration of Farmland through the Farm Project ANA Akindo oversees the Farm Project, which revitalizes abandoned mandarin orange farms and supports mandarin production, processing, distribution, and sales. The Farm Project helps solve problems such as pest and weed infestation, bird and animal damage, and disaster risks caused by the shrinkage of farmland and increased farmland abandonment. The Farm Project promotes green tourism in cooperation with local governments and farmers through the planning and management of monitoring tours, workcations, and agricultural experiences to conserve biodiversity and restore farms. One such example is iyokan seedling planting at the Ishimaru Farm, a local farm operator. Collaborations with Stakeholders The ANA Group participates in the Keidanren Committee on Nature Conservation as a standing committee member. We also endorse the Keidanren Initiative for Biodiversity Conservation. The ANA Group participates in the 30by30 Alliance for Biodiversity, which pursues efforts to achieve the 30by30 emissions targets. Team Chura Sango (Coral Reef Conservation Project to Preserve Tourism Resources) In 2004, ANA and other companies in and outside Okinawa launched Team Chura Sango to support the coral conservation activities of the Onna Village Fisheries Cooperative in Manza Bay, Okinawa Prefecture. In 2024, the team will observe its 20th anniversary. The project pro- tects coral from bleaching caused by rising sea temperatures and feeding damage caused by massive outbreaks of crown-of-thorns starfish, thereby preserving the ecosystem of Manza Bay. With the support of the Ministry of the Environment, Okinawa Prefecture, Onna Village, and other government agencies, the team participates in coral seedling production and planting programs held five times a year. As of fiscal 2022, 17,839 coral seedlings have been planted thanks to the participation of 4,177 people. In recognition of these activities, the project received the Fisheries Agency Director’s Award in the 42nd National Convention for the Development of an Abundantly Productive Sea. 68 69 Medium- to Long-Term Value Creation Environment Disclosures in Line with the TCFD Recommendations In March 2019, the ANA Group became the first Japanese airline to endorse the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD, established by the Financial Stability Board. We disclose information in accordance with the four items required by the TCFD recommendations: Governance, Strategy, Risk Management, and Metrics and Targets. We will continue to enhance our disclosure content in line with the TCFD framework.

Beyond air transportation, the ANA Group aims to solve regional issues while creating new encounters and connections among people, goods, and experiences. We seek to grow regional fan bases, expanding the number of people with whom we interact and build relationships. Working in unison with local communities is crucial to solving issues. We create deeper ties with local communities by building close relationships with local businesses coordinating with those branches nationwide that have regional operations, as well as through coop- erative agreements with local governments throughout Japan. Based on the relationships of trust we build with local communities through our Air Transportation and Travel Services businesses, we take on the challenge of regional revitalization by leveraging the strengths and assets of the ANA Group while making the most of the charms of each region. Implementation Structure The ANA Akindo Regional Revitalization Department, which coordinates with 33 branches nationwide across Japan that are engaged in community-based activities, plays a central role in integrating the initiatives of group companies organically, working with the ANA Group to create value that solves regional issues.

Today, we are strengthening a foundation for the appropriate allocation of management resources and nimble decision-making. 74 74 75 Safety Strengthening Safety as a Business Foundation, Passing Down Safety as a Culture Passing On a Culture of Safety and Nurturing Human Resources 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 To ensure safety, we must report and share incidents promptly, tying these incidents to prevention or the prevention of reoccurrence. To this end, we engage in initiatives tailored to each workplace, encouraging safety-oriented actions in each individual and fostering a culture of safety. In addition, the ANA Group engages in ongoing education and training programs for all employees to preserve the memory of past accidents and hijackings in our pursuit of safety. We utilize face-to-face and online methods to pass on a broader and deeper safety safety extends to every part of our group businesses, even beyond our aircraft operations, including cargo, food services, and informa- culture. tion. 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 forms relationships among employees across various job descriptions to support Major Initiatives 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. Safety is assured by an integrated management system and mutual respect. Safety is enhanced through individual performance and dedication. 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. (3) Address any questions and sincerely accept the opinions of others. (4) Information will be accurately reported and shared in a timely manner. (5) Continuous self-improvement for prevention and avoiding reoccurrence. (6) Lessons learned from experiences and increased skills for risk awareness. ANA Group Medium-Term Policy for Aviation Safety and Security We formulated the ANA Group Medium-Term Policy for Aviation Safety and Security covering fiscal years 2023 through 2025. The pur- pose of this policy is to maintain basic quality and safety for growth, even during this period of recovery in air travel demand. We continue to face a changing environment and changing work styles in the airline industry in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. As we maintain firm aviation safety and security, we will also create methods to make advancements in this area. Safety and security are always the priority of the ANA Group, and we intend to strengthen our systems further through five key concepts. Safety i i S S a a f f e e t t y y R R s s k k M M a a n n a a g g e e m m e e n n t t Flight Flight operations operations Customer Customer Employees Employees (Workers) (Workers) C o m m u n c a t i o n i Safety Safety and and Security Security ESG Sense of Safety Key Concepts 1.

Restructure our aviation security management system The sunflower represents aviation safety, and the fence represents aviation security to protect the sunflowers from outside agents. The sunflower and fence stand on the soil that represents our culture of safety and Flexibility security. We believe that the most important nutrients are the following four cultures. Safety Policy Safety Policy and and Targets Targets Just Culture Positive Safety Culture Learning Aviation Security Security Risks Management Reporting 76 • Just Culture • Reporting Culture • Learning Culture • Flexibility Culture The ANA Group will strive as one in our unending pursuit of safety and security. Education and Training at the ANA Group Safety Education Center (ASEC) Total cumulative number of participants over the past three years: 34,443 (including online participation) ASEC, located in the ANA Group Training Center (ANA Blue Base), provides safety education in which participants learn actively, using the knowledge learned at ASEC to practice specific safe behaviors in the workplace. Online training programs are also available, and all ANA Group employees worldwide have been taking courses. We also accept visitors from outside the ANA Group and share the ANA Group safety initiatives and philosophy with many people. Emergency Aircraft Evacuation Training Total cumulative number of participants over the past three years: 17,646 This training is mandatory for all group employees to support cabin attendants in assisting and guiding passengers in the event of an aircraft emergency and fostering general safety awareness. In addition, participants discuss actions in emergency situations and reflect on their behavior as ANA Group employees to enhance safety awareness. Safety Forum Conducted by Senior Management Total cumulative number of participants over the past three years: 7,089 The ANA president & CEO and the director in charge of safety at ANA delivered safety-related lectures and engaged in dialogue with employees. Discussions addressed topics on safety culture and aviation security, and ANA Group employees and management shared ideas on safety- and security-related concepts and behavior. Initiatives for Aviation Safety and Security Promotion Month Number of forums: 4 Cumulative participants: 1,440 (TALK SAFE) We designated July as Aviation Safety and Security Promotion Month. During the month, we reviewed and held a silent observance for past accidents and incidents. We also reaffirmed our commitment to preventing or preventing the recurrence of problems, including risk prediction and change management, to improve safety quality throughout the ANA Group. In particular, the annual TALK SAFE event helps foster a culture of safety and security by sharing examples of workplace- based initiatives and holding discussions with management. 77 Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Safety Aviation Security Given the ongoing recovery of airline demand in the post-COVID-19 era, the future growth in demand for inbound travel to Japan, and political instability overseas, we understand the need to strengthen the infrastructure that supports security further. We face a pressing need to conduct security inspec- tions more smoothly and reliably than ever before. Last year, through the Scheduled Airlines Association of Japan, we considered audio / verbal measures to control the carrying of prohibited or restricted items and hazardous materials on aircraft at interactions prior to security checkpoints. With the understanding and cooperation of public trans- portation authorities (monorail, train, bus) linking to airports, we introduced an industry first in making verbal announcements within each transportation mode. We began this initiative at Haneda Airport, and are expanding the program to certain other air- ports. We will continue to address aviation security issues at both the individual and industry levels. Ensuring Safety in Non-Air Operations Food Safety The ANA Group operates the ANA Catering Quality Program (ACQP) from the three perspectives: (1) Food safety for hygienic in-flight and lounge meals; (2) Delicious quality for food and beverages served; and (3) Safe and accurate loading and unloading of foods on and off aircraft. Qualified audi- tors and chefs make regular visits to our catering contractors in Japan and around the world, offering guidance on improvements based on ANA’s own strict hygiene standards. We also engage regular external hygiene audits from third parties based on international standards. We report the results of these audits to relevant internal departments in a timely manner to maintain and improve quality. In addition, the status of food safety management is reported regularly at board meetings. Information Security The ANA Group works continuously to ensure the secure handling of information, including personal customer information, as a management issue equally important to flight operations. System security measures include data encryption, perimeter defense, anti-virus, and endpoint security to achieve defense in depth. In light of our shift to a cloud environment, we also adopted Attack Surface Management, which monitors information accessible from the internet on a 24/7/365 basis, investi- gating and launching countermeasures as necessary. In addition, we created the ANA Group Information Security Management Manual for employees in accordance with ISO 27001, and apply the manual to the entire group. We also use handbooks, e-learning, training, and email newsletters to ensure this manual is widely understood throughout the group, and conduct audits to check compli- ance. In this way, we are strengthening our information management system and reducing the risk of information leaks from both tangible and intangible perspectives. Further, we comply with Japan’s Act on the Protection of Personal Information, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and other laws and regulations enacted or revised in various countries regarding the protection of personal information. 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 to raise awareness. 78 Front-Line Initiatives to Ensure Safe Operations We are building mechanisms leading to operation safety based on input from employees involved in operations. Preventing Irregular Operations by Visualizing Wind Shear Structure Low-Level Wind Information Aircraft landings are affected significantly by low-level wind below 3,000 feet. Sudden changes in low-level wind speed (wind shear) may cause instability in aircraft position when landing. To ensure safety, pilots may turn the aircraft back to the point of departure or reroute to a different destination. Obtaining stable data on low-level winds has been difficult due to the characteristics of observation equipment available. Obtaining general situation reports from a flight crew after landing takes time and effort for ground staff to communicate to following flights. In addition, making appropriate operational decisions based on such information requires proficiency in operations and many years of experience. 1 2 3 4 Runway 1. Normal entry 2. Headwind increases dramatically, causing instability in aircraft speed and path Given these conditions, we focused on the fact that aircraft in 3.

A significant loss of speed and altitude may result in difficulty landing in initiative of an employee involved in operations management, we a stable position considered an automated system to extract and visualize low- level wind data exceeding a certain value, making the information available on the ground in a timely manner. During our consideration, we held discussions not only in the operations department but also among many employees across departments and companies, including systems, maintenance, safety promotion, and flight crew. As a result, we reduced irregular operations (turnaround or reroute) due to unexpected wind turbulence during landing. We continue to use actual data to analyze correlations with projected Utilize data to ensure safe operations Ratio of Strong Wind* Cited as a Reason for Flights Turned Back or values to improve forecast accuracy.

Ensuring Safe Operations through Easy-to-Use and Sustainably Effective Measures Safety is our absolute priority. Since unexpected low-level wind turbulence can impact safe operations, We established a system that produces continued effects rather than a one-time policy since the ANA Group environment encourages opinion exchange across departments toward the shared goal of safety. In addition to this project, we are working to visualize and utilize weather data in three dimensions. We will continue to do everything in our power to improve the comprehensive safety of our operations. SAKAMOTO Kei and KANDA Anna All Nippon Airways Co., Ltd. Operations Management Center 79 Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Human Capital The FY2023-25 ANA Group Corporate Strategy describes the three-year period beginning fiscal 2023 as a time to solidify our foothold and reinvent ourselves to achieve our manage- ment vision. It will be a period to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic and evolve toward sus- tainable corporate value improvements. Unwavering safety is our first foundation for growth, followed by groupwide DX. And the power of the people in the ANA Group is what supports this foundation. Inheriting the DNA of endeavor since our founding, we strive to create new value and sustainable growth by maximizing the individual strengths of our employees around the world in a variety of settings and creating a driving force as a team. →P.50 Human Resources Strategy Case 1 Creating the Future from the Employee Perspective: Formulating a New Management Vision The ANA Group’s new management vision is Uniting the World The common idea of the ANA Group of the future throughout in Wonder, which we published in fiscal 2023.

We took another hard look from all angles at what we must do for our future. Creating a Corporate Culture that Embraces Our New Management Vision The Japanese term for a sense of wonder (waku waku) emerged as a common theme from the dialogues that took place across the group when we considered our new vision. First, our employees themselves are embracing a sense of wonder to create and deliver new value to our customers and society. We believe that if every employee shares this desire, we will evolve into a more attractive group than ever before. Under the Future Creation Project, we pursue corporate reform across the group and strive to create a culture that takes on the challenges of the future boldly while address- ing the issues that impede the sense of wonder. The Future Creation Project logo expresses the sense of wonder flowing from the ANA Group and how expectations and joy spread across the world, carried by the wind. The bright colors relate to the ANA Group, and are meant to express the creation of wonder for the future through group employees.

Da Vinci Camp We solicit a wide range of new ideas to uncover the seeds of new revenue-generating busi- nesses that will enhance ANA Group value over the medium to long term. Building on the 15 years of work by its predecessor, ANA Virtual Hollywood, the Da Vinci Camp celebrated a third anniversary in fiscal 2023. In fiscal 2022, we received 43 applications, including proposals from flight attendants, aircraft mechanics, and other front-line staff. After an internal review process, four innovative ideas were considered as candidates for commercialization. Employees act with enthusiasm and an adventurous spirit to take on new challenges boldly and without fear of failure. ANA Millionaire Pitch Launched in fiscal 2021, the ANA Millionaire Pitch business and services proposal program has become a mechanism for soliciting sustainable, quickly monetizable proposals from employees. In 2022, we received more than 700 ideas from employees, 13 of which have been rolled out or are in the process. Throughout the process of giving shape to ideas, knowledgeable ANA Group employees act as mentors and offer advice, while close communication across departments contributes to the improvement of organizational capabilities.

The team also listened to feedback from the front lines, eventually creating a usable system for the organization through steady efforts and problem-solving. The linkage of internal data reduced process duplication and fostered timely data visualiza- tion. The ANA Group will continue to consider ways to utilize these mechanisms within the group and evolve activities. Innovations from Our Maintenance Departments Our aim was to create an environment in which every person has easy access to information and foster a more comfortable workplace through mechanisms based on DX. It was a big challenge to see how far we could go in streamlining operations without introducing new systems or spending money. We made the most of utilizing existing tools and the work tablets given to each person. We believe there are still seeds of innovation to nurture in our area of aircraft maintenance. We will continue to innovate in a way that allows our colleagues to shine more brightly, maintaining safety while responding flexibly to changes in the environment.

In addition, we have developed groupwide frame- works to minimize the impact of risks and prevent recurrence in case risks materialize. Risk Management Structure The ANA Group Total Risk Management Rules provide the basic terms of the group’s risk management system. Under these regulations, the Group ESG Management Promotion Committee develops and implements basic policies. These policies are executed in line with the basic policies determined by the board of directors. 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 secretariat in the event of a crisis.

Through this system, we strengthened. Under this system, EPLs provide instructions and work to enhance system functionality and implement security responses within their respective companies. measures in accordance with policy. Business Continuity Plan (BCP) We formulated the ANA Group Basic Business Continuity Policy Protection of Personal Information In order to comply with national and international laws and in preparation for responding to disasters. This policy ensures regulations on the protection of personal data, the privacy policy the safety of customers and all ANA Group directors and and relevant internal rules are being modified, and the Amended employees, minimizes the impact on management and on Act on the Protection of Personal Information of Japan, which society as a whole, and resumes normal business operations as came into force on 1 April 2022, as well as revisions to laws in quickly as possible. This policy is an all-hazard type policy not other countries (e.g. the U.S., Europe, China, and Thailand) are restricted to specific disasters, and specific measures are being being appropriately addressed. We also conduct in-house train- discussed at each group company. The Ministry of Land, ing to each employee on the importance of protecting personal Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism established guidelines that information and the need for strict handling of such information. address building airports resistant to natural disasters. Under In April 2023, the Privacy Governance Team was established as these guidelines, ANA conducts inspections and reinforcements a dedicated governance structure to strengthen privacy gover- of airport facilities and equipment for flooding and power out- nance in order to realize business development based not only ages. Additionally, we perform emergency drills at airports in on strict legal compliance but also on ethical appropriateness in case of disasters. Thus, ensuring prompt responses in the event the future use of data, including platform businesses utilizing of emergency. customer data assets. 86 Security Export Control* The ANA Group exports the parts, apparatuses, and other structures regarding security export control, and strictly main- tained them through annual audits and training. We not only articles necessary for aircraft maintenance to overseas airports target exporting divisions that work in direct export but also and aircraft maintenance centers. We recognize that certain divisions that are involved with custom clearances and other articles have the potential to be used as weapons. Accordingly, export-related processes. we practice rigorous security export control of exported articles * Security export control is a term that refers to all regulations placed on exports from and their related technologies. We established regulations and Japan by the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act. 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 defense in depth in accordance with the guidelines formulated by related ministries. We monitor our security system 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The use of intelligence (early warning informa- tion on cyberattacks) is extremely effective against cyberattacks as they become more sophisticated and cunning. The ANA Group utilizes preventive measures such as the Aviation ISAC (Information Sharing and Analysis Center) and the Transportation ISAC JAPAN, as well as Dark-Web research. We also introduced the Zero-Trust concept to defend against attacks and ensure reliability by checking with the person operating the system, the equipment generating the communica- tion, and system processing. In light of recent cybersecurity incidents at other companies, there is a growing need to strengthen not only the ANA Group security measures but also the defense of our entire supply chain. We will strengthen cooperation with related ministries, Keidanren(Japan Business Federation), and other related agencies to spread awareness on the need to strengthen security. Our top material issue is to address the visualization of the IT assets of each company in the ANA Group supply chain. We identify issues and vulnerabilities through managing attack surfaces, which are points of external attack at each group company. Any issues and vulnerabilities discovered are prioritized and kept closely informed, communicated, and consulted so that each group company can take the necessary countermeasures. Information security advisories and refresher training materials are regularly posted on our website for employees to help develop security human resources, and we raise employee awareness of security through their daily operations and +Security training. The development of human resources specializing in security is an urgent issue. In addition to continuing to hire experienced personnel, we work to develop security supervisory personnel by recruiting transfers from other depart- ments and having them attend specialized security training. As for our legal correspondence, we sequentially respond to privacy laws and regulations in each country. In Japan, we work closely with the national government, Keidanren, and other related organizations to promote the various IT systems and cybersecurity measures required by the Economic Security Promotion Act. Recent Measures for Increasingly Severe Natural Disasters 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 essen- tial 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 continue during power outages. These mea- sures include connecting necessary terminals for aircraft operations with emer- gency power equipment, and replenishing capacity of emergency power supplies through the use of large storage batteries.

Fiscal 2021 Action / Plan Define Issues Fiscal 2022 Do Improvement Initiatives Check Evaluate • Improved how we provide outside directors with information by recording the status of internal discussions in the documents and enabling directors to receive explanations of the process of discussions. • Continued to include a column on the status of internal meeting discussions and enhanced contents in the materials provided to the board of directors. • Encouraged the directors in charge of explaining to supplement the materials with the status of the discussions and related matters as needed. • We significantly improved the degree to which we record the status of discussions at internal meetings, but there was still a lot of information that is difficult to convey on paper alone. We received requests that the explaining director also supplement the materials with information on the conflicting sides and intensity of the discussions. • The chairperson now has more opportunities to prompt comments on additional relevant information during the proceedings, deepening members’ understandings of the agenda. • Discussions become more active, but it is necessary to generate more discussion time as time is constricted. To do so we must delegate authority to the executive side and short explanation times. • Aim to enhance the follow-up of manage- ment strategies and in-depth study of investment decision criteria and withdrawal criteria. • Ensured time for discussion by present- ing estimated time frames for explaining agenda to the directors that would present at the board of directors’ meetings. • Enhanced discussions by ensuring time for each topic of the FY2023-25 ANA Group Corporate Strategy. • We were commended for allocating time for discussion of each topic of the ANA Group Corporate Strategy. However, the priority of each topic was unclear, and we received comments that the board of directors should focus its discussions on the most important issues. • Times allocated for reporting items are long. As such, we have room to further improve time allotment for discussions.

Discussion Details Members demand that we focus on medium- to long-term management issues and key management issues to further enrich our discussions. • The board of directors will work with corporate planning divisions to prioritize and set aside time at board meetings for necessary discussions on key management issues and themes. Through this, they will work to further enhance discussions at board of directors’ meetings. Provision of Materials to Outside Directors Some commented that the provision of information is slow, there are too many materials, and that it is difficult to understand the main points of the materials. As such, they urge us to closely examine the contents of the materials. • We distribute the board of directors’ meeting materials in advance. However, will we aim to share materials earlier than the current distribution date, even if some of the materials are incomplete or being revised (we will update materials as we go). • We will continue to scrutinize the contents of materials. • Town meetings* were extremely effective to enable us to hear the voices of those in the field. • The COVID-19 pandemic prevented us from holding town meetings with the frontline divisions. However, we resumed site visits and town meetings with the current business units in FY2022. • Outside directors highly evaluated our town meetings with the cabin department due to our fruitful discussions with the cabin center managers who attended the meetings. • Going forward, directors urge for town meetings with departments whose impact and priority changed signifi- cantly between before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. FrontLine Visits and Town Meetings We are urged to seek town meetings with departments that have changed significantly since before and after COVID-19, such as the freight department in particular. • We will conduct town meetings with the freight department. • We will enhance frontline visits based on the interests of the outside directors. * Dialogue between officers and employees Cross-Shareholdings We believe that it is essential to maintain and strengthen as a result of a comprehensive review, ANA determines that the collaborative relationships with our business partners for evaluation results will continue to be low for a certain period of further growth and development of group businesses.

It was resolved at the 66th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company, held on June 20, 2011, that the maximum amount of remuneration of directors per year would be ¥960 million. There were 17 directors (including two outside directors) as of the close of this Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders. It was resolved at the 70th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company, held on June 29, 2015, that the maximum amount of share remuneration per year would be ¥100 million. There were seven directors (excluding outside directors) as of the close of this Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders. 4. It was resolved at the 74th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company, held on June 21, 2019, that the maximum amount of annual remuneration for Audit & Supervisory Board members per year would be ¥180 million. There were five Audit & Supervisory Board members (Including three outside Audit & Supervisory Board members) as of the close of this Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders. 5. The amounts listed above are rounded down to the nearest million yen. We reduced basic remuneration for directors and members of the Audit & Supervisory Board in fiscal 2022 according to position in response to deteriorating business performance throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Performance-linked bonuses have not been paid. 101 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 information and find- ings 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 both online and in person in fiscal 2022, enabling a greater number of employees to participate and 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 Dialogue with Experts in Europe Participants • UBS Topics Progress of ESG Management in the ANA Group • Church Commissioners for General ESG Topics Q What are the key points on encouraging ESG management going forward? • Corporate ESG assessment criteria is shifting. It is becoming more directly related to management strategy and ques- tions if the governance system is effectively resolving negative impacts on society. ESG assessment focuses on whether the company has the structure (in management decision-making) to enhance the sustainability of the company. • There is a movement to strictly eliminate greenwashing. Highly transparent information disclosures and disclosures on the management systems that encompass the supply chain are necessary. Environment Q What do you think about our initiatives toward net zero emissions? • Reducing CO2 emissions is the highest priority topic in the airline industry. This is not an easy problem to solve, but clarifying that your company will take a leading position in the resolution of this issue will differentiate you from other companies. It is essential to provide a clear roadmap (at a company, industrial, and national level) on CO2 reduction by fiscal 2030 and fiscal 2050 that is linked to management (growth) strategies. You must also explain this roadmap to investors. In doing so, it is acceptable to present short-term quantitative targets and qualitatively explain (disclose your story) targets for the long term. • Leadership is required in shaping public opinion on sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), lobbying governments, and taking the initiative to involve competitors and other actors. • We understand the need to use carbon offsets to reduce CO2 emissions. However, you need to assign specialized personnel to determine the reliability of those carbon credits. Verifying samplings directly from the front lines is also important to ensure reliability. • Stating that the ANA Group will not rely on emissions trading, but will rather utilize negative emissions technologies in your transition scenario, is highly commendable. We are particularly interested in technologies such as direct air capture (DAC) • SBT Certification is effective in explaining the relationship between the Paris Agreement and the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). Human Capital and Human Rights Q What do you think about ANA Group initiatives on human capital and human rights? • We are highly interested in the ANA Group identification of human rights issues and your appropriate implementation of corrective action in accordance with the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. We continue to focus on strengthened supply chain management such as direct dialogue with frontline workers, the acceptance of complaints and grievances, and decision-making that involves management. At the same time, forced labor, working hours, and living wages are common supply chain risks across all sectors. • We focus on human capital management and human resource strategies that help achieve long-term visions and man- agement strategies. As such, we expect to see the establishment and disclosure of KPIs related to these strategies.

Dialogue with Experts on Business and Human Rights (October 2022) Participating Experts Sofía del Valle World Benchmarking Alliance, Engagement Manager, Social Transformation Talya Swissa World Benchmarking Alliance, Research Project Manager Sean Christopher Lees UNDP Bangkok Regional Hub Business and Human Rights Specialist Topics Promotion of Initiatives Relating to the ANA Group’s Business and Human Rights Q How should we utilize privacy-sensitive customer information? • Privacy requirements should include a globally published statement that sets forth your commitment to upholding privacy rights and the rules for collecting, sharing, and accessing personal information. A privacy statement must include the following information: 1) A clear explanation on what personal information will be collected 2) A clear explanation on with whom (third parties) collected personal information will be shared 3) An explanation to users on what kind of personal information was collected Q What is necessary when identifying human rights and environmen- tal issues along the value chain? • The correct approach entails selecting specific goods that the ANA Group is involved in from production to sales, and then identify anticipated human rights and environmental issues at each step in the value chain. However, the following three principles should be considered when selecting issues from a human rights due diligence perspective: 1) How many people are impacted? 2) How significant is the impact? 3) What corrective measures can you apply? Q What is necessary to consider when addressing climate change and human rights due diligence together? • It is necessary to understand how your company impacts climate change and reflect this in your business model. It is also important to first assess the risk of contracted business partners in the flow of your value chain. Ensuring that their business is conducted in a manner consistent with ANA policies is also important once the business relationship is established. The same should be required of the suppliers with whom that company contracts. Providing incentives to suppliers for complying with the company human rights policy can encourage efforts toward respect for human rights in business decision-making. Incentives can include increase contract payments, increased orders, and contract extensions. Internal Dialogue Internal Discussions to Promote ESG Management Awareness SDGs Special Lecture and Panel Discussion with Employee Participation The ANA Group held a special lecture and panel discussion with the leading SDGs researcher in Japan, Professor Norichika Kanie (Keio University Graduate School of Media and Governance). The theme of this event was Future SDGs and ESG Management Promotion - Contribution to SDGs Through Business, Human Resource Development (Education and Training) and SDGs. Discussions aimed to reaffirm the importance of encouraging ESG management and contributing to the SDGs in our future society, as well as to deepen participants’ understanding of what it means to achieve a sustainable society and business through our business as the ANA Group. After the discussions, employees exchanged opinions on these topics, giving them the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the SDGs and recognize their connection with our business. ANA Group DEI Forum 2022 The DEI Forum currently welcomes its 8th year since establishment in 2015. The forum aims to accelerate DEI promotion in the workplace from a management perspective and strengthen organizational capabilities by improving engagement and productivity. The topic for 2022 is Never Stand Still. The ANA Group is required to take action in response to the recovery in demand from the COVID-19 pandemic. At the same time, we also expressed our desire to take action to achieve DEI. As such, the group held discussions with experts in addition to panel discussions with international employees. These discussions frankly discuss the necessity of DEI and the actions necessary to get involved in its achievement. We streamed these discussions online and held public viewings at about 50 locations, with a total of approximately 2,000 group executives and employees participating over two days. 103 Foundations for Sustainable Corporate Value Enhancement Trust Building with Stakeholders Internal Dialogue Outside Director Town Meeting Initiatives Fiscal 2022 Topics Changes in Flight Attendants’ Work Styles during the COVID-19 Pandemic and Future Issues and Directions 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. In fiscal 2022, the ANA Group held discussions between outside directors and the Inflight Services Center, which oversees the flight attendants that support our safety and service quality. Participants shared their responses to the excess capacity utiliza- tion due to the COVID-19-inflicted slumps in passenger demand, the needs for new and diverse work styles, and challenges in the current demand recovery phase. Our Initiatives Fiscal Year Division Department Name Fiscal 2018 Maintenance The Engineering & Maintenance Center, Each Fiscal 2019 Flight Operations Flight Operations Center Fiscal 2020 Marketing CX Management Office Group Maintenance Company Fiscal 2021 Human Resources Group Human Resources Strategy Department Fiscal 2022 Cabin Inflight Services Center Topic 1 Flight Attendant Work Styles during the COVID-19 Pandemic Q The ANA Group hired and trained many flight attendants in preparation for the expected slot expan- sions for Haneda Airport in 2020. However, the spread of COVID-19 significantly reduced flights, result- ing in a large amount of excess capacity. What measures did the group take in response to this? 1. Expansion of Work Styles Introduction of the New Short Working Day System • The group will have to recruit more employees if it continues the short working day system, as each person will have a smaller workload. The group should think of how to match people to jobs on the premise of ensur- • The ANA Group responded to the COVID-19 pandemic by introducing a ing flexible jobs, as Japan struggles with structural labor shortages. short working day system. This system is similar to that of work sharing and Enforcing a uniform work style will be physically difficult for some employees. expands the options of work styles for employees, such as commuting from rural areas or selecting flight routes. • Approximately 30% of all flight attendants chose this new work style, curtail- ing the operating force by about 1,500 employees. This system leads to the personal growth of employees by enabling them to choose a work style that fits their lifestyle more easily, have duel employment, and learn new skills. • While having a work-life balance is important, it is also important to send the message that employees should choose a work style while considering how the fulfillment of their personal lives can lead to personal growth and benefit your work as well. The Necessity of Securing Flexible Work Styles • The group should continue the short working day system to ensure resilient operations in the face of deteriorating external environments. • We will review the system and continue making efforts to broaden work styles. The group aims to adjust the operational capacity by increasing the number of eligible participants of the system in the event of another pan- demic. To flight attendants, this system doesn’t just provide more work style options, but it also enables them to become proficient through limiting the number of routes they work. 2. Expansion of Internal and External Secondments and Dual Employment Flight Attendants’ Perspectives • The number of seconded attendants in fiscal 2022 exceeded over 1,000 at peak times. As of December 2022, approximately 800 employees (300 internal and 500 external) are participating in secondment. The group has also received approximately 3,000 applications for dual employment. • Secondment proves beneficial to attendants that gain experience at other companies, as they can rediscover themselves and see the Company from a different perspective. Flight attendants that experience the outside world may feel that ANA has a richer working environment. • Some attendants feel more motivated after realizing they had been better off or that they want to take on a more active role. Management must be diligent in keeping those feelings alive. • Some flight attendants take time to adapt to the new environment. Managers in charge of supporting employees on secondment reached out, offered care, and organized gatherings and seminars for their benefit. Use of Employee Secondment Experience • Each employee leverages their experiences from secondment by sharing their experiences and awareness on aspects of work from new perspec- tives. Positioning secondment as a stage for human resource development and strategically drawing out employees’ strength is something the group must tackle. • This secondment system is favored by the participating companies and will be continued, even though the group plans to reduce the scale of the system in accordance with operating conditions. Whereas this system was launched in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the ANA Group will continue participation to strengthen organization from the perspective of cross-border learning and diversity. Topic 2 Approach to Career Development for Flight Attendants Q How has the COVID-19 pandemic changed flight attendants’ outlook on work? Impact on Job Turnover Rates Career Development Considerations for Each • Turnover rates significantly declined during the COVID-19 pandemic. This Employee may be due to the effects of diversified work styles. • The overall average may also have been impacted by the suspension of new graduate hiring, which decreased the number of young employees with high turnover rates. The group should conduct a precise analysis on the relation- ship between years of employment and turnover rates. • It is becoming gradually more difficult to fit each employee into a standard career, as each flight’s attendants growth process is different. Values of the younger generations are changing, broadening individual needs. Some want to acquire certifications earlier on, while some wish to have multiple slower- paced jobs. The ANA Group will review the current system, which is based on • The group should work to design a system that ensures flexible work styles lateral promotions. if employees so wish. Companies will battle for employment going forward, and strict workplaces will not attract many employees, even for prestigious jobs. • The actual issue lies in the current uniform personnel system. Individual flight times will vary greatly from person to person with the introduction of the short working day system. As such, the horizontal personnel system would have to be changed uniformly. • More employees experience secondment and dual employment, becoming interested in other occupations. This increases their desire to transition from flight attendants to administrative positions or transfer within the group. Even though the group would prefer to have them be active in the Inflight Services Center, it also wishes to help fulfill their individual careers and thereby grow and develop the group as a whole. • Flight attendants are responsible for protecting the lives of their customers. This resolution and experience are great strengths that will enable them to take on responsibility in any career. The ANA Group strongly encourages them to broaden their horizons on other careers. Topic 3 Measures and Issues in Flight Resumption Q Are there any issues in resuming flights after their reduction in the COVID-19 pandemic? Safety and Quality Issues Flight Attendants Residing Abroad • Crew hours decreased to one-fifth of pre-COVID-19 levels with the reduced • The group saw a sharp decline in international flights during the COVID-19 scale of flight operations.

While consumer spending and capital expenditures picked up gradually, imports and exports showed signs of weakening. Looking to the future, the economy is expected to pick up, sup- ported by easing of restrictions on movement and normalization of socioeconomic activities. At the same time, unstable international conditions, including soaring global energy prices and monetary tightening in the U.S. and European countries, could have a negative impact on any recovery. The airlines industry in Japan expects the recovery to continue in leisure demand for domestic routes and in inbound travel and business demand on international routes. However, developments in geopolitical risk and the situation in Ukraine warrant close monitoring. Fuel Price Trends Crude oil prices fluctuated widely throughout the year due to con- cerns about crude oil supply disruptions caused by the deteriorating situation in Ukraine. At the beginning of the year, crude oil prices rose sharply due to concern about supply shortages caused by the EU embargo on Russian crude oil. Crude oil prices began to trend down- ward in the third quarter in response to fears of a global recession caused by monetary tightening in various countries and the spread of COVID-19 in China. As a result, the average price of crude oil was $92.5 per barrel for the fiscal year under review and $76.8 per barrel on March 31, 2023. The market price of Singapore kerosene tracked the price of crude oil. The average price for the fiscal year was $123.4 per barrel, ending at $94.8 per barrel on March 31, 2023. Foreign Exchange Market The U.S. dollar–yen exchange rate fluctuated widely throughout the fiscal year. The yen weakened to 150 yen to the dollar in October against the backdrop of a widening interest rate differential between Japan and the U.S., while appreciating rapidly in December in response to policy revisions by the Bank of Japan. The Japanese yen averaged ¥135.48 per U.S. dollar for fiscal 2022, ending the year at ¥132.86 per U.S. dollar on March 31, 2023. Air Transport Traffic Trends International Air Transportation Association (IATA) member airlines reported a 152.3% year-on-year increase in RPK for scheduled inter- national flights in 2022. RPK for scheduled domestic flights rose 10.9% for the year. At the same time, RTK in connection with sched- uled global air cargo increased 32.3%. (Source: IATA World Air Transport Statistics, 2023) In Japan, passengers on trunk routes* increased 78.7% year on year to 39.42 million. The number of passengers on local routes* increased 85.4% to 51.24 million. In total, passengers on scheduled domestic flights increased 82.4% to 90.66 million. Cargo volume increased 14.5% to 0.54 million tons. The number of passengers carried by Japanese airlines on international flights increased 440.1% to 9.51 million, while the volume of international cargo handled by Japanese airlines decreased 16.6% to 1.47 million tons.

Operating income amounted to ¥120.0 billion compared with an operating loss of ¥173.1 billion in the previous fiscal year, despite an increase in flight operation-linked expenses stemming from expanded flight operations, as we continued with strict cost management measures. Review by Segment The Group operates four reportable segments: Air Transportation, Airline Related, Travel Services, and Trade and Retail. Performance for Fiscal 2022 Overview of the ANA Group The ANA Group (“the Group”), led by holding company ANA HOLDINGS INC., consists of 133 subsidiaries (including ALL NIPPON AIRWAYS CO., LTD.) and 37 affiliates. A total of 54 companies are treated as consolidated subsidiaries, with another 13 treated as equity-method subsidiaries and affiliates. Group employees num- bered 40,507 individuals, a decrease of 1,689 compared to the previous fiscal year-end. The environment surrounding the airline industry has been improv- ing rapidly, as restrictions on behavior have eased with respect to domestic flights and entry restrictions have eased in many countries with respect to international flights. In terms of business performance, operating revenues rose signifi- cantly year on year, supported by a recovery in travel amid the eco- nomic conditions described above. We posted a profit for the first time in three fiscal years. Even as we expanded the scale of flight operations, we continued with strict cost management measures that curbed increases in operating expenses. On the balance sheet, retained earnings increased mainly due to an increase in operating revenues. Cash and deposits together with marketable securities amounted to ¥1,183.7 billion in liquidity on hand.

Adjustments of segment profit represent the elimination of intersegment transactions, group management expenses of ANA HOLDINGS INC., and other certain items. 3. Segment operating income is reconciled with operating income in the consolidated nancial statements. 4. EBITDA = Operating income + Depreciation and amortization Air Transportation Business Air Transportation Business operating revenues amounted to ¥1,539.4 billion, a year-on-year increase of 73.9%. This result was mainly due to the capture of recovering passenger demand as con- sumers in Japan began to travel outside the home, the government eased restrictions on movement, and various other countries began to relax border restrictions. Continued strong cargo unit prices also contributed to this result, despite weakening cargo demand. Operating income amounted to ¥124.1 billion compared to an oper- ating loss of ¥162.9 billion in the previous fiscal year. This result was mainly due to efforts to control expenses through cost management and other measures, despite an increase in flight operation-linked expenses associated with re-scaling our business. The ongoing situation in Ukraine forced us to bypass Russian airspace on our European routes. However, the impact on revenues was limited due to business expansion, particularly on our high- performing North American routes. We were named the best airline in three categories, including cabin cleanliness, in the 2022 World Airline Awards sponsored by SKYTRAX of the U.K. In addition, the ANA Group was recognized as the world’s best airline in the Network Category in the On-Time Performance Awards given by CIRIUM, an entity that analyzes airline data from around the world. 116 117 Financial / Data Section Management’s Discussion and Analysis Changes in Operating Income (Loss) (FY2022 vs FY2021) (¥ Billions) Revenues from contracted maintenance and handling, Mileage and Card, etc. Increase in Expenses +367.2 ANA Domestic Passenger ANA Cargo & Mail ANA Other Revenues LCC +52.4 Sales- Linked +38.3 Fuel & Fuel Tax Depreciation and amortization, maintenance, personnel, contracts, aircraft leasing fee excluding code-share, others –20.4 +9.2 Increase in Revenues +654.3 +249.7 ANA International Passenger +363.3 Sales commissions and promotion expenses, in-flight services, ground services +153.7 Operation- Linked +35.7 Landing and navigation fees, code-share costs, travel expenses for crew +138.3 Increase in Operating Income +287.0 Other Expenses (Including impact of cost reduction measures) +124.1 –162.9 FY2021 Operating Income (Loss) (¥ Billions) Operating revenues Operating expenses Operating income (loss) 2022 1,539.4 1,415.2 124.1 2021 885.0 1,048.0 (162.9) Change YoY (%) +654.3 +367.2 +287.0 +73.9 +35.0 — FY2022 Operating Income Results by business are as follows. ANA International Passenger Business The international passenger business captured demand for connec- tions between North America and Asia, border restrictions were eased and travel demand recovered earlier than in other regions. Business demand from Japan and demand for inbound travel to Japan began recovering in September 2022 in response to relaxing border restrictions in Japan. As a result of our efforts to capture this demand, we recorded significantly higher passenger volume and revenues than the previous fiscal year, with international passenger volume recovering to 40% pre-COVID-19 levels. Our route network increased flights on North American and Asian routes to and from Narita Airport in the first half of the year to capture demand for connections between North America and Asia. We also increased flights on the Haneda–Delhi and Haneda–Sydney routes beginning in January 2023 to respond to recovering demand from Japan and inbound travel demand to visit Japan. ANA International Passenger Business Results Sales and service efforts included the March 2023 Let’s Go Overseas With ANA campaign commemorating ANA’s 70th anniver- sary. Under this campaign, we sold special fares to Asia, Europe, and the United States to stimulate leisure demand. We added a Quick & Light Meal and a No Thank You Option (decline of in-flight meal) to our international in-flight meal pre-order service beginning with flights departing on March 31, 2023. These options provide passengers with more freedom and comfort during their in-flight time while contributing to less food loss on board. As a result, available seat-kilometers (ASK) and revenue passen- ger-kilometers (RPK) increased 74.8% and 375.8%, respectively, while load factor increased 46.6 points to 73.6%. Passenger num- bers increased 410.3% to 4.21 million, while unit price increased 21.1% to ¥102,899. Operating revenues increased 517.9% to ¥433.4 billion.

ANA Domestic Passenger Business Amid policies to balance the prevention of COVID-19 with socioeco- nomic activities, leisure demand in ANA domestic passenger opera- tions recovered significantly beginning in the second half of the year, assisted by Nationwide Travel Support and other measures. Amid the impact of an 8th wave of COVID-19 infections, we launched a ¥7,000 one-way flight to any domestic destination, a program to commemorate the ANA 70th anniversary. We also endeavored in other ways to attract new customers and stimulate demand, resulting in higher passenger volume and revenue year on year, with domestic passenger volume recovering to 70% of pre-COVID-19 levels. By the third quarter, all Boeing 777 aircraft with refurbished engines were in service in our route network. We shifted to wide-body aircraft and added extra flights, mainly on weekends, during the year-end and New Year holidays, and spring break, working to capture the recovery in demand.

In December 2022, ANA launched a new concept called The Premium Kitchen for in-flight meals in premium class on domestic flights. ANA updated menu choices based on customer feedback, and disposable plastic containers used for in-flight meals were replaced with paper containers, etc., to promote ESG initiatives further. As a result, ASK and RPK increased 45.5% and 96.6%, respec- tively, while load factor increased 16.8 points to 64.5%.

ANA Cargo and Mail Business International cargo operations experienced the negative impact of declining demand for automotive components and fewer flights operated using passenger aircraft as we worked to capture passen- ger demand. As a result, cargo weight was lower year on year. However, we maintained high unit prices by capturing cargo with higher unit prices, including large special commercial products. As a result, international cargo volume for fiscal 2022 amounted to 800 thousand tons (down 17.5% year on year), while operating revenues amounted to ¥308.0 billion (down 6.3%). Available ton- kilometers (ATK) decreased 5.2% year on year and revenue ton- kilometers (RTK) decreased 20.0%. Domestic cargo operations saw a 47.6% increase in ATK com- pared with the previous fiscal year, while RTK decreased 0.2%. Although demand for inter-company transport was sluggish, home delivery demand remained strong throughout the year. Cargo volume increased 0.9% to 0.25 million tons, and cargo revenues decreased 3.3% to ¥24.1 billion. Operating revenues for international and domestic mail business amounted to ¥6.2 billion and ¥2.8 billion, year-on-year increases of 15.1% and 8.7%, respectively. As a result, the ANA Cargo and Mail Business recorded fiscal 2022 operating revenues of ¥341.3 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 5.6%. 119 Financial / Data Section Management’s Discussion and Analysis ANA Cargo and Mail Business Results International Cargo Business Results (Fiscal Year) 2022 2021 YoY (%) Cargo and mail services revenues (¥ Billions) 341.3 361.7 –5.6 International cargo ATK (Millions) RTK (Millions) 6,605 6,966 –5.2 4,147 5,186 –20.0 Cargo volume (Thousand tons) 805 976 –17.5 Cargo revenues (¥ Billions) 308.0 328.7 –6.3 Unit price (¥/kg) Mail revenues (¥ Billions) 382 6.2 337 5.4 +13.6 +15.1 Domestic cargo ATK (Millions) RTK (Millions) Cargo volume (Thousand tons) 1,413 281 253 957 281 251 Cargo revenues (¥ Billions) 24.1 24.9 Unit price (¥/kg) Mail revenues (¥ Billions) 95 2.8 99 2.6 +47.6 –0.2 +0.9 –3.3 –4.1 +8.7 LCC (Peach) With the easing of restrictions on domestic travel and border control measures in various countries, Peach expanded the scale of domes- tic flight operations and resumed previously suspended international flights to capture leisure and inbound travel demand. As a result, both passenger numbers and revenues outperformed the previous fiscal year. In our route network, we responded to increasing domestic route demand by expanding flight operations, including increasing the number of flights on the Narita–Sapporo (New Chitose) and Narita– Fukuoka routes. On international routes, we resumed the Kansai– Incheon route in August 2022, followed by Kansai–Taipei, Kansai–Hong Kong, and others. In March 2023, we launched the new Nagoya (Chubu)–Taipei route. Sales and service efforts included the new Yadotsuki Tabi Kuji package, launched in February 2023 on the heels of Tabi Kuji (random-destination tickets) in the previous fiscal year. In this initia- tive, we created demand through a unique travel experience that leaves the travel destination completely to chance. As a result, ASK and RPK increased 55.6% and 85.5%, respec- tively, while load factor increased 11.9 points to 73.5%. Passenger numbers increased 82.2% to 7.77 million, while unit price increased 31.0% to ¥11,610. Operating revenues increased 138.7% to ¥90.2 billion.

This expense accounted for 24.6% of Air Transportation Business operating expenses, compared with 18.5% in the previous fiscal year. This ¥153.7 billion increase was mainly due to an increase in ANA unit price factors (including hedging effectiveness) of approximately ¥96.0 billion, and increases in consumption volume factors of approximately ¥45.0 billion for ANA and approximately ¥13.0 billion for the LCC. Domestic and international passenger flights increased 32.2% and 7.8%, respectively (excluding Peach Aviation flights). Freighter flights decreased 17.7%. Passenger route landing and navigation fees amounted to ¥60.5 billion, up ¥17.5 billion (40.9%) year on year due to measures to reduce landing fees and other costs, despite the increased number of flights. Aircraft leasing fees increased ¥20.3 billion (18.0%) to ¥133.3 billion, mainly due to increases in domestic code-share flights operated by other airlines along with a recovery in passenger demand. Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased ¥2.1 billion (1.5%) to ¥138.4 billion. This result was mainly due to an increase in fully amortized intangible assets and the sale of certain assets. Aircraft maintenance expenses increased ¥41.8 billion (43.5%) to ¥138.0 billion. This increase was due to an increase in maintenance frequency stemming from the increase in aircraft flights. Personnel expenses increased ¥34.9 billion (22.0%) year on year to ¥193.4 billion, mainly due to the termination of monthly wage reduc- tions and an increase in bonuses. Sales commissions and promotion expenses increased ¥20.0 billion (72.5%) year on year to ¥47.6 billion stemming from an increase in sales commissions in line with higher passenger revenues. Contract expenses increased ¥38.1 billion (22.6%) year on year to ¥207.0 billion. Ground handling contracts and other contracted operations increased due to an increase in the number of passenger flights. Other expenses increased ¥42.7 billion year on year (40.2%) to ¥149.0 billion. The main factor behind this increase was an increase in in-flight service expenses due to an increase in the number of passengers. Others Other operating revenues in the Air Transportation Business amounted to ¥144.7 billion, a 6.9% increase year on year. Results include incidental revenues from mileage memberships, in-flight sales, contracted maintenance, etc. * Figures for ASK, RPK, and Unit Price are indexed using the figures for fiscal 2018 as 100. 120 121 Financial / Data Section Management’s Discussion and Analysis Airline Related Business Airline related business operating revenues rose ¥40.3 billion (19.5%) year on year to ¥247.1 billion with the easing of Japan’s border con- trol measures and a recovery in passenger demand driving growth in ground handling services, including boarding and baggage loading, and in-flight meal production. Operating income amounted to ¥2.3 billion compared with an operating loss of ¥0.6 billion in the previous fiscal year. Performance in the Airline Related Segment (¥ Millions) Trade and Retail Operating revenues increased year on year due to higher sales at airport merchandise store ANA FESTA and the duty-free ANA DUTY FREE SHOP as airline demand recovered. Strong demand in the semiconductor market led to increased transaction volume in the electronics business, which also contributed to this result. As a result of the preceding, fiscal 2022 Trade and Retail business operating revenues rose ¥21.5 billion (26.4%) year on year to ¥103.2 billion. Operating income increased ¥2.9 billion (539.5%) to ¥3.5 billion.

As a result, this business recorded operating revenues of ¥38.0 billion (0.2% decrease), essential level with the previous fiscal year. Operating income amounted to ¥0.5 billion, a decrease of ¥0.7 billion (56.8%). Performance in the Others Segment (Fiscal Year) 2022 2021 Change Segment operating revenues ¥38,066 ¥38,130 Segment operating expenses 37,467 36,742 Segment operating income ¥ 599 ¥ 1,388 ¥ (64) 725 ¥(789) (¥ Millions) Segment operating revenues ¥247,129 ¥206,806 ¥40,323 Segment operating expenses 244,797 207,466 37,331 Segment operating income (loss) ¥ 2,332 ¥ (660) ¥ 2,992 Travel Services Passenger demand recovered steadily for domestic travel. The Nationwide Travel Support program introduced in the second half of the year led to an increase in dynamic travel package sales, while ANA Traveler’s Hotel products, eligible for purchase using miles points, also performed well. In addition, the business endeavored to expand new services, including the launch of ANA Traveler’s Golf, an online tee-time reservation service, in September 2022. In April 2022, the business resumed tours to Hawaii for the first time in nearly two years, expanding the number of overseas travel destinations gradually since. As a result of the preceding, fiscal 2022 Travel Services operating revenues amounted to ¥73.8 billion, a ¥27.5 billion (59.5%) increase year on year. Operating loss narrowed compared with the previous fiscal year, amounting to ¥0.2 billion (¥2.1 billion operating loss in the previous fiscal year). In October 2022, the Group updated the ANA Mileage Club app to serve as a gateway to various Group services useful in everyday lives. In January 2023, the Group opened the ANA Mall, a new online shopping mall where consumers can earn and use miles. We will continue to offer higher levels of convenience for our customers and seek to create a world in which people live in a mileage-based ecosystem.

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, 2023, we have secured commitment line agreements totaling ¥100.0 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 2022 Free cash flow amounted to ¥245.7 billion (sum of cash flows from operating activities and investing activities). Net cash used in financ- ing activities totaled ¥142.9 billion. As a result, cash and cash equiv- alents increased ¥105.4 billion from the beginning of the fiscal year, amounting to ¥726.4 billion at the end of the fiscal year. Cash Flows from Operating Activities After adjusting the ¥114.3 billion in income before income taxes for depreciation and amortization, notes and accounts payable, notes and accounts receivable, and other non-cash items, net cash pro- vided by operating activities amounted to ¥449.8 billion, compared to net cash used of ¥76.4 billion in the previous fiscal year. Non-Operating Income (Loss) / Expenses, Special Income (Loss) / Expenses Fiscal 2022 non-operating and special income and expenses amounted to a loss of ¥5.6 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 adjustments, net income attributable to owners of the parent amounted to ¥89.4 billion compared with a net loss of ¥143.6 billion in the previous fiscal year. Income per share was ¥190.24 (compared to loss of ¥305.37 in the previous fiscal year). Comprehensive income amounted to ¥63.2 billion compared with a comprehensive loss of ¥93.7 billion in the previous fiscal year, mainly due to the recording of net income attributable to owners of the parent. 123 Financial / Data Section Management’s Discussion and Analysis Cash Flows from Investing Activities Net cash used in Investing activities was ¥204.0 billion, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of ¥230.0 billion in the previ- ous fiscal year. This result was mainly due to cash outlays for capital expenditures and payments into time deposits. Substantial cash flows from investing activities after excluding net outlays of ¥127.3 billion from payments into and proceeds from withdrawals of time deposits and payments for purchases and proceeds from redemp- tions of marketable securities (time and negotiable deposits with maturities exceeding three months) amounted to ¥76.7 billion. Free Cash Flow Net cash provided by operating activities totaled ¥449.8 billion. Since net cash used in investing activities was ¥204.0 billion, free cash flow for fiscal 2022 amounted ¥245.7 billion, an increase of ¥92.1 billion compared with the previous fiscal year. Substantial free cash flow after excluding payments into and proceeds from withdrawals of time deposits and payments for purchases and proceeds from redemp- tions of marketable securities (time and negotiable deposits with maturities exceeding three months) amounted to ¥373.1 billion, compared with a net expenditure of ¥111.9 billion in the previous fiscal year. Cash Flows from Financing Activities Net cash used in financing activities was ¥142.9 billion, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of ¥93.6 billion in the previ- ous fiscal year. This result was mainly due to redemption of convert- ible bonds with stock acquisition rights and repayments of loans. 18/4 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 2022 amounted to ¥116.8 billion, a decrease of 12.4% year on year. By segment, Air Transportation Business capital expenditures decreased 11.8% year on year to ¥115.1 billion. Airline Related Business expenditures increased 1,316.0% to ¥2.1 billion, while Travel Services Business expenditures increased 260.9% to ¥1.4 billion. Trade and Retail Business expenditures increased 154.9% to ¥1.1 billion, and Others decreased 69.4% to ¥0.1 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 2022 Based on the fleet strategy described previously, our total number of aircraft was 276 as of the end of fiscal 2022, level with the previous fiscal year. The table below shows changes in the number of aircraft by type for the fiscal year under review. The ANA Group added seven aircraft, consisting of one Boeing 787-10, one Boeing 787-9, two Airbus A321-200neoLRs, and three Airbus A320-200neos. Meanwhile, the group retired seven aircraft, consisting of two Boeing 777-300s, three Boeing 767-300s, and two Airbus A320-200s.

We also plan to retire eight Airbus A320-200s. 124 125 Financial / Data Section Management’s Discussion and Analysis Financial Position Assets Total assets as of March 31, 2023 amounted to ¥3,366.7 billion, an increase of ¥148.2 billion compared to March 31, 2022. Total current assets amounted to ¥1550.8 billion, up ¥256.8 billion from the end of the previous fiscal year, mainly due to an increase in cash and deposits. Cash and deposits amounted to ¥603.6 billion, an increase of ¥151.0 billion compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. Marketable securities increased ¥81.7 billion to ¥580.0 billion. As a result, liquidity on hand amounted to ¥1,183.7 billion, up ¥232.7 billion year on year. Total non-current assets at the end of the fiscal year stood at ¥1,814.9 billion, down ¥107.9 billion from one year earlier. Liabilities Total liabilities as of March 31, 2023 amounted to ¥2,496.3 billion, up ¥81.3 billion from one year earlier. Current liabilities increased ¥195.5 billion year on year to ¥883.4 billion, mainly due to an increase in contract liabilities resulting from expanded airline ticket bookings. Total long-term liabilities amounted to ¥1,612.9 billion, a decrease of ¥114.1 billion. Interest-bearing debt, including finance lease obligations, decreased ¥142.1 billion to ¥1,607.9 billion, mainly due to redemp- tions of convertible bonds with stock acquisition rights and repay- ments of loans. Our debt/equity ratio amounted to 1.9 times, a decrease of 0.3 point compared with the end of the previous fiscal year. Net debt/equity ratio on a net interest-bearing debt basis was 0.5 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.

Shareholder’s equity as of March 31, 2023 amounted to ¥794.4 billion, an increase of ¥92.0 billion compared to the end of the previ- ous fiscal year. Total accumulated other comprehensive income amounted to ¥67.9 billion, a decrease of ¥26.9 billion compared to the end of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to a decrease in deferred gain on derivatives under hedge accounting. As a result, total shareholders’ equity increased ¥65.1 billion from the end of the previous fiscal year, amounting to ¥862.4 billion. Shareholders’ equity ratio increased 0.8 point to 25.6%. Book value per share (BPS) at the end of the fiscal year was ¥1,833.64, compared to ¥1,695.06 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, 2023 were as follows: Bond Ratings Issuer rating Outlook * Shifted to positive on April 14, 2023 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 retire- ment. Certain consolidated subsidiaries adopting defined-benefit corporate 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 2022 and Plans for Fiscal 2023 Although passenger demand has been recovering during the year under review, the impact of COVID-19 on Group performance to date has been significant. Our immediate task is to restore and strengthen the Group financial base. Therefore, it is with regret to announce that we have decided to not pay a dividend for the year under review. Dividends for the next fiscal year remain undecided at this stage. We intend to resume dividend payments as quickly as possible by achieving our profit targets. 126 127 Financial / Data Section (2) Major Risks 1. Addressing climate change issues is becoming 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 with significantly lower CO2 emissions than conventional fuels throughout the life cycle, 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 outside carbon reduction programs, 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 competitiveness against other modes of transpor- tation, 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 prefer other modes of trans- portation, 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 We believe that issues related to climate change represent urgent worldwide matters, and that addressing this risk is of extremely high importance and priority. We also believe that the aviation industry in general and the ANA Group, in particular, may be required to take more stringent and sophisticated measures to address this risk more quickly in the future. Response In addition to taking proactive measures, including replacing aircraft with newer, more fuel-efficient types, we will work to establish an SAF development and supply system through public-private part- nerships (including other companies in the industry), SAF manufac- turers, and the government. 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. (https://www.ana.co.jp/group/en/csr/environment/goal/) Operating Risks As a corporate group whose core business is air transportation, we consider safety to be our most important social mission and con- sider any damage or impediment to this mission to be the most important risk we face. In addition to the severe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic over the past several years, we face a variety of other risks, including risks related to climate change, which has increased in importance and urgency, and risks related to interna- tional affairs, which are becoming increasingly uncertain. The following is a summary of the risks as of the end of the current fiscal year that the ANA Group believes may have a signifi- cant impact on investor decisions. The following includes forward- looking statements, which may not be consistent with actual conditions, and may omit other risks that affect the 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. In such cases, however, ANA Group business operations could be affected by flight cancellations or reductions due to a shortage of available aircraft. Changes and Outlook We believe this risk 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. 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 increasingly uncertain due to U.S.-Chinese frictions, the Russia-Ukraine situation, the emergence of third-party powers, etc. Other uncertainties regarding future events have also emerged. International air transportation has grown against the backdrop of economic globalization. However, if this trend stagnates or reverses, or if peace fails due to war or conflict, etc., ANA Group revenues could be affected negatively due to slow demand for business travel or a decrease in demand for tourism. Instabilities in international affairs 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 force aircraft to stop flying over or reroute around war or conflict zones. The impact of these costs could be far-reaching. Changes and Outlook Uncertainty about the direction of international affairs and the globalization of economic activities is increasing. We believe there is a growing need to manage and address these matters as risks. 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. 3. Outbreaks of large-scale infectious diseases have a tremendous impact on the ANA Group. Summary The ANA Group was impacted severely by the COVID-19 pandemic. If a large-scale outbreak of infectious disease were to occur again in the future, demand for our services could decline drastically due to restrictions or prohibitions on travel, having a significant impact on ANA Group business performance. Controlling Air Transportation Business expenditures in the short term will not be easy, since aircraft expenses, personnel expenses, and other fixed costs account for a large portion of our business. In addition, measures to curb business expenditures could affect group business perfor- mance, even during the phase of recovery in demand, as a certain amount of time would be required to rebuild business structures. 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 also diversifying our business structure, expanding revenue domains not linked to the Air Transportation Business and expanding the ANA Economic Zone for the sustainable growth of the ANA Group. 4. The impact of a system failure is significant. Summary The ANA Group seeks to systematize business operations to provide air transportation services of ever-higher quality and effi- ciency. 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 related 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. 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 building 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 increasingly important. Summary The ANA Group retains a great deal of information, which includes the personal data of ANA Mileage Club members. 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 govern- ments, etc., and lose the trust of our customers and society, thereby experiencing a competitive disadvantage. Changes and Outlook In general, climate change (global warming) is said to increase the risk of infectious disease, and we believe this risk will be increasingly important to address in the future. Changes and Outlook We believe the need to address this risk appropriately is only rising in light of heightened social awareness and norms regarding infor- mation handling, based on increasingly strict laws and regulations. 128 129 Financial / Data Section Operating Risks 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 education and training for all employees. In addition, we take measures to prevent cyberat- tacks and information leaks, engaging in ongoing inspections of group systems to detect and respond to aging systems and vulner- abilities 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, and we believe in the need to address this risk from mul- tiple perspectives. Response The ANA Group established a human rights due diligence mecha- nism under the ANA Group Policy on Human Rights and reflecting the procedures detailed in the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. We strive to manage this risk appro- priately by conducting human rights risk assessments across our supply chain. When necessary, we confirm and investigate human rights risks with external parties directly. Within the ANA Group, we conduct employee education on human rights and perform periodic monitoring at management-level meetings. 7. The risk of severe natural disasters is increasing. Summary Air transportation has the advantage of being relatively more resilient to natural disasters compared to 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 concen- trated in the Tokyo metropolitan area. Therefore, major restrictions or disruptions to ANA Group flight operations could occur if the Haneda or Narita airports are impacted by a natural disaster. 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 ANA 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 signifi- cantly. A weakening of the yen boosts yen-equivalent revenues earned in foreign currencies overseas by the ANA Group. However, the group has more foreign currency-denominated expenses than foreign currency-denominated revenues, and the effect does 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 com- pletely eliminate the impact. Nor can these measures be expected to be effective in controlling costs in all cases. Changes and Outlook Climate change (global warming) is said to lead to more frequent and severe natural disasters, and we believe this risk will be one of several increasingly important risks to address in the future. 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. Changes and Outlook Although market fluctuations are always a possibility, we believe the potential of this risk has increased recently in light of growing uncertainties regarding international and economic conditions. Response We take measures to reduce, 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 fluctua- tions, and procuring funds under appropriate financial discipline. 9. Investments designed to strengthen competitiveness and achieve new growth also entail risks. Summary The ANA Group considers and executes investments to achieve growth for the future. However, these investments also entail risks. Our Air Transportation Business introduces new aircraft to maintain and improve competitiveness against other companies, as well as to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, these investments may not be as effective as expected in the event of prolonged and diverse effects related to COVID-19, the rapid and dramatic development of technologies, associated changes in social behavior, or the fragmentation of global economic activities due to political circumstances. 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, regional revitalization businesses, various air mobility businesses, Metaverse avatar businesses, ANA Economic Zone businesses, etc. While we expect these investments to be highly impactful when they produce the expected results, these investments may not produce the expected results in all cases. Changes and Outlook We continue to believe risk management related to investments is important. 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 but also through our investment management committee, which oversees investments for the group. In this way, we ensure a hierarchical and multilayered management system that incorporates pre-investment evaluation and post-investment withdrawal standards. 10. A declining population may cause 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. Population declines may also have an impact on the ability to secure the labor force necessary for ANA Group business opera- tions. In this event, unit labor costs may increase or business operations may be limited due to labor shortages. Changes and Outlook We believe this risk has a high probability of emerging in the future. 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 grow over the medium to long term. To secure a sufficient workforce, we will improve our ability to compete in recruitment via proactive investments in people. These investments will include allocating and expanding education and training opportunities appropriately. At the same time, we pursue mechanization, labor savings, and unattended operations, which we understand may not represent a source of differentiation from other companies. 11. Expansion of high-speed rail networks may intensify 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 ANA Group’s domestic operations. This impact could include a decline in market share or a drop in unit price due to intensified price competition. Changes and Outlook We believe this risk is likely to emerge over the medium to long term. 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 medium to long term, we will continue to expand our international business, which addresses a market likely to grow over the medium to long term. (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 the 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. 130 131 Financial / Data Section Operating Risks 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 ANA Group has recorded deferred tax assets. However, these assets may be reversed in the event of a decrease in expected future taxable income. The group may procure funds necessary for capital investment, 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 the ANA Group revenues and earnings, many of the group’s other businesses, including Airline Related, Travel Services, and Trade and Retail businesses, are related to the Air Transportation Business. Any significant negative impact on the Air Transportation Business could affect these other businesses materially. f. Risks related to lawsuits Lawsuits filed in Japan or overseas related to the ANA 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). 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 300 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 2023, 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. 132 133 Financial / Data Section
