* The tally is for Sagawa Express. The environmental conservation effect is calculated as the net change compared to FY2023.

*1Figures for natural gas used at onsite gas stations are after temperature or pressure corrections.

*2Figures for city gas were tallied using the figures written on invoices from suppliers without making temperature or pressure corrections. Biogas excluded.

*3The figures written on invoices from suppliers (m³) were converted into weight at 2.07kg/m³.

*4The environmental conservation effect of renewable energy and amount of PET bottle recycle are recorded as environmental conservation benefits based on actual results.

*5The effect believed to have contributed to the recycling of PET bottles by using uniforms made from recycled PET bottles is converted into the number of PET bottles.
Value for conversion: Total weight x number of sheets x polyester usage rate of each uniform x recycling rate for the polyester used ÷ weight per 500 ml PET bottle
The conditions for each item are as follows

Total weight	Short sleeves Approx. 175g long sleeves Approx. 240g
Polyester usage rate of each uniform	-Cotton material 65% -Sweat absorption material 100%
Recycling rate for the polyester used	100%
Weight per 500 ml PET bottle	30g

Tallying method

Guideline used as a reference: Environmental Accounting Guidelines 2005 Edition, Ministry of the Environment
Acquisitions of assets valued at 200,000 yen or more are recorded as investments.
Environmental facilities are depreciated over four years by the straight-line method.
Personnel expenses are calculated based on the number of hours of environmental activities x the average personnel expenses of Sagawa Express.
