Yokohama Rubber issues “Integrated Report 2025”
Hiratsuka, Japan—The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd., announced that it posted the English-language version of its “Integrated Report 2025” on the Company’s English Sustainability website. The report includes a comprehensive presentation of Yokohama Rubber’s management strategies and business activities.
Under Yokohama Transformation 2026 (YX2026), the Company’s medium-term plan for fiscal years 2024–2026, Yokohama Rubber is implementing initiatives that integrate sustainability activities into its business strategies. Accordingly, the Company is accelerating business activities that will lead to sustainable enhancement of its corporate value while contributing to local communities and the resolution of social issues.
To facilitate the stakeholders’ proper understanding of a comprehensive presentation of Yokohama Rubber’s management strategies and business activities, in 2022 Yokohama Rubber began publishing an integrated report that includes a well-organized presentation of such key financial information as management strategies and business performance as well as important non-financial information regarding the Company’s social, environmental, human resources, and corporate governance policies and activities. Referencing the International Integrated Reporting Framework advocated by the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) Foundation and the Japan Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry’s Guidance for Collaborative Value Creation, the report’s structure is based on the key issues identified under Yokohama Rubber’s materiality review.
The “Integrated Report 2025” builds upon last year’s edition, which received the Nikkei Integrated Report Award for Excellence. To deepen understanding of how the Yokohama Rubber Group aims to achieve YX2026 and realize sustainable growth, the information in the report related to strategic areas of particularly high interest to stakeholders, such as global strategy, off-highway tires (OHT), technology, and production, has been enhanced. Additionally, the non-financial information is structured based on a stronger awareness of how it relates to the six categories of capital* identified by the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC).
The Yokohama Rubber Group looks forward to communicating with stakeholders through various opportunities and will continue to proactively provide fair and transparent information disclosures through various methods, such as the recently released “Integrated Report 2025.” https://www.y-yokohama.com/global/sustainability/information/backnumber_report/
