We are pleased to announce the opening of a new “NURA” health screening center focusing on cancer screening in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia in August. The new center will be the second NURA health screening center in Mongolia. In Mongolia, cancer and lifestyle diseases such as ischemic heart disease are leading causes of death (*). However, health screening services in Mongolia are not as widely available as in Japan, which frequently makes it difficult to detect diseases in their early stages. The first NURA center in Mongolia provides the Japanese-style high-quality health screening service, which has been well received by users, with more than 15,000 people already using the service. In order to make NURA health screening service accessible to more individuals, we have made the decision to open a second NURA center. Compared to the first center, the second center can accommodate up to 150 people per day, several times the capacity. We will continue to provide high-quality services to an increasing number of people, thereby contributing to advancement of global health. * Source: “Global Health Estimates: Life expectancy and leading causes of death and disability” on WHO website.

We plan to issue a JPY 200 billion social bond offering in July 2024, making it the largest-ever social bond offering in the corporate bond market in Japan*. The social bond offering will be used to finance growth of our biopharmaceutical contract development and manufacturing business (Bio CDMO business). Biopharmaceuticals have emerged as a promising solution for addressing unmet medical needs, including intractable and rare diseases. As the global demand for biopharmaceuticals grows, it becomes important to establish a robust production system that ensures a stable supply of biopharmaceuticals for improving access to healthcare services, and one effective solution is to increase production capacity at Bio CDMOs and ensure consistent supply. With the investment in the growth of our Bio CDMO business, we contribute to address unmet medical needs and improve access to healthcare through the stable supply of high-quality biopharmaceuticals. *In corporate bonds issued as a social bond in Japan as of July 1, 2024, research according to Fujifilm.

We are pleased to announce the opening of a new “NURA” health screening center focusing on cancer screening in Hanoi, Vietnam. In Vietnam, lifestyle diseases are among the leading causes of death (*1). However the health screening rate remains low at about 3.5% (*2), which frequently makes it difficult to detect diseases in their early stages. Through our NURA, we will create an environment that supports the delivery of high-quality screening services, and engage in activities to enhance a health screening culture in Vietnam. During the opening ceremony, Teiichi Goto, Fujifilm's global president and CEO said, "With our NURA, we will contribute to improve the quality of medical care in Vietnam and realize a future in which the people of Vietnam will have happy smiles on their faces many times." *1 Source: “Global Health Estimates: Life expectancy and leading causes of death and disability” on WHO website. *2 Source: “Report on the project for fee-based service of medical checkup system in Vietnam” on METI website.
