at the 5th NIKKEI Integrated Report Award

Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd.
Tokyo, Japan, March 19, 2026 - Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd., a leading global real estate company headquartered in Tokyo, announced today that its Integrated Report 2025 has received the Semi-Grand Prize for the first time at the 5th NIKKEI Integrated Report Award organized by Nikkei Inc. Along with its first Award for Excellence at the 4th NIKKEI Integrated Report Award last year, Mitsui Fudosan’s integrated report has now received high evaluations for two consecutive years. In addition, Mitsui Fudosan was selected by asset managers entrusted with the domestic equity investment of the Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF) for Excellent Materiality-focused Sustainability disclosure.
The Integrated Report 2025 describes how, under the Group’s long-term vision “＆ INNOVATION 2030,” the Mitsui Fudosan Group goes beyond the scope of a real estate developer by driving sustainable value creation as an industry developer. The Report systematically introduces its value creation efforts in relation to its human capital, which is the infrastructure supporting the business, and details its non-financial measures, such as DX and ESG, in addition to the business and financial strategies.
Mitsui Fudosan was recognized for the following points in receiving the Semi-Grand Prize at the 5th NIKKEI Integrated Report Award, as reflected in the judges’ comments (excerpts) below.
- This integrated report demonstrates the spirit of an industry leader who has decided to tear down the framework of the real estate industry to evolve into a new platformer—an industry developer. The long-term vision “& INNOVATION 2030” presents an ambitious vision that adds the element of new industry creation (innovation) to traditional neighborhood creation. It maintains consistency with the financial strategy (enhancement of asset turnover and shareholder returns), which supports this vision.
- This integrated report offers an easy-to-understand explanation of how a large company with revenue of over two trillion yen views value creation, the company’s business strategy, and the state of its business. Although a real estate company, Mitsui Fudosan begins its corporate message with “What the Mitsui Fudosan Group creates cannot be measured,” expressing the company’s attitude in simple terms. The report allots generous space for the CEO and CFO’s messages, both of which are superb and show the effective division of their roles.
Mitsui Fudosan will continue working on the timely and accurate disclosure of information to investors and all other stakeholders and proactive dialogue with them. Notably, Mitsui Fudosan will strive to boost its corporate value and stock price by strengthening communication on topics such as its social value, competitive advantages and differentiation strategies, ESG initiatives, asset portfolio resilience, and the stability and continuity of future business performance.

■Sustainability in the Mitsui Fudosan Group
Based on the meaning of its “& mark,” “to generate new value with society through cooperation, coexistence and co-creation, we forge ahead, innovating,” the Mitsui Fudosan Group views the “creation of social value” and the “creation of economic value” as two wheels of a cart. Accordingly, we believe that the creation of social value leads to the creation of economic value, and that this economic value then creates even greater social value.
Moreover, we identified six Group Materiality priority issues when formulating our new management philosophy in April 2024. These Group Materiality priority issues are (1) Contribute to industrial competitiveness, (2) Coexist with the environment, (3) Health and Vitality, (4) Safety and security, (5) Diversity and inclusion, and (6) Compliance and governance. The Mitsui Fudosan Group will work to address each of the materialities through its core business activities and contribute to the promotion of sustainability.
