Group Corporate Philosophy of (MVCV)
The 3rd Stage and the Fujikura Group Corporate Philosophy of MVCV
Numbered in terms of human years, Fujikura has celebrated its auspicious 60th birthday twice, and has entered a new stage three times. We declared our 120th anniversary in 2005 as the third new stage of the company, and formulated new business principles entitled Mission, Vision, and Core Values (MVCV), which are aimed at further development of our company in a new era. These incorporate the spirit of the company that we have cherished and protected since the company was founded in 1885, and detail our mission of creating value for our customers and contributing to society through the “tsunagu” (connecting) technologies on which our corporate culture is based. |

Activities to Instill MVCV
Since the Mission, Vision, and Core Values (MVCV) were re-established as the Group Corporate Philosophy, we have continued to implement a series of activities to ensure that each and every employee understands them. During the 1st Stage (2005-2009), we conducted training activities for management and line managers to move them “from insight to action.” During the 2nd Stage (2010-2012), we deepened their understanding through activities relating to the practical implementation of the Code of Conduct as a “gear shift.” In the current, 3rd Stage (2013 onward), we are implementing initiatives aimed at practical implementation that enable each and every employee to understand the importance of the Corporate Philosophy and base their decisions and actions on the MVCV and the Code of Conduct to “refine activities and dig deeper.”
The main goal of the 3rd Stage is to be appreciated by customers, be highly admired by society, and have employees working in vigor. This will result in a highly profitable company and group. To achieve this, each employee will recognize the key role that he or she plays, work diligently on activities aimed at the instillation of these values in everyone, and work together with all employees to create a good corporate culture.

Fiscal 2021 Plans and Activity Results
Fujikura has designated the month of October each year as Focus on MVCV Month and provides training in which all employees participate. We have done this to enable employees to naturally base their actions on the Group Corporate Philosophy of MVCV.
In FY2021, following FY2020, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in postponement of many practical application activities. We used the Web conferencing system to provide training by grade level, have every person think about their own code of conduct and declare their commitment, and conduct other activities that we could in telecommuting and other remote environments to ensure that everyone understands the practical application of MVCV. These activities provided the opportunity for everyone to take a fresh look at and develop new insights into and resonate with the values and philosophy that Fujikura cherishes.v
We plan to conduct training (on interpreting MVCV) for all employees of the Fujikura Group again this fiscal year to give everyone a more in-depth understanding and awareness of the Fujikura Group Corporate Philosophy MVCV, and enhance the corporate (brand) value of Fujikura.
