Sustainability and Risk Management Committee

On May 31, 2024, the Board of Directors resolved to restructure the Corporate Sustainability Committee to report directly to the Board. This adjustment aims to strengthen the Company's vision for sustainable development and to enhance the oversight and implementation of its sustainability initiatives. To address the dual challenges of global sustainability and risk management, and to further strengthen corporate governance and internal control mechanisms, the Company’s Board of Directors resolved on May 9, 2025, to officially rename the existing “Corporate sustainability Committee” to the “Sustainability and Risk Management Committee,” and to appropriately expand its functions and responsibilities.

The Sustainable Development Committee is led by the Chairman and General Manager of THC, and the General Administration Department is responsible for holding meetings, collecting information, and reporting to the Board. Under the committee are four teams: Corporate Management Team, Sustainable Environment Team, Products and Services Team, and Employees/Social Care Team. The committee engages in dialogue and carries out various initiatives with stakeholders sharing their concerns with their respective responsibilities. Externally, the Sustainable Development Committee oversees this report's review, third-party certification, and publication. The committee will hold regular sustainable development meetings to draw up the Company's annual implementation objectives and plans and track implementation performance. We issue an ESG Report every year to meet the expectations of governments, capital markets, supply chains, and other stakeholders regarding the sustainable development of THC.

Promote sustainable development and supervision

Our board of directors values the issue of environmental protection and climate change. The CEO and chairman lead the ESG Committee to set objectives, execute, and review results. Externally, the Committee coordinates the review, third-party certification, and release of ESG reports. After completing the report, the Promotion Chair confirms the ESG report and reports to the board of directors. The Committee will hold regular, sustainable development meetings to draw up the Company's annual implementation objectives and plans and track implementation performance.

The 2024 implementation will be reported to the Board of Directors on May, 2025. In order to cope with the impacts of climate change, they suggested that the company should actively promote a GHG inventory program and energy management.
