Overall Disclosure Profile
SoftBank Group Corp. secures autonomous specialist personnel and supports their growth through 1on1 meetings, multidimensional reviews, training, transfers within the group, and entrepreneurship opportunities. In FY2025, it supported registration and maintenance costs for work-related qualifications for approximately 11% of employees. Salaries and bonuses reflect personnel evaluations and market levels, and equity compensation has also been introduced.
In the group's technical businesses, the disclosure specifically describes collaboration between Arm and Rivian to develop chips for autonomous driving. However, it does not present financial outcomes from the development or its effects on employee development. The annual survey involving 31 domestic companies measures satisfaction with work, workplaces, supervisors, and companies, and is distinguished from measuring motivation to contribute to outcomes. The percentage receiving qualification support also does not indicate the number of employees who newly obtained qualifications.

Assessment Scope & Disclaimer
This assessment is based solely on information disclosed in the company's Japanese-language Annual Securities Report filed through EDINET.
It does not assess the human capital initiatives a company actually implements or the company's human capital capabilities themselves.
Items for which no disclosure was identified in the Annual Securities Report receive no points, regardless of whether the company actually implements the relevant initiatives.
This English-language assessment is a translation of the original Japanese assessment and is provided for convenience. In the event of any discrepancy, the Japanese assessment prevails.
