Outline of Financing and Capital Expenditure Financing The basic funding policy of the Company is to secure appropriate liquidity required for our business activities and to maintain financial strength and stability. We secure financing for long-term funds, mostly with maturities of around 10 years, primarily through long-term borrowings from domestic financial institutions, including insurance companies and banks, and the issuance of corporate bonds. In cases where projects require large amounts of financing, we utilize loans from government financing agencies and/or project finance. In addition, financing subsidiaries and overseas trading affiliates procure long-term and short-term borrowings as well as issue commercial paper (short-term corporate bonds) in accordance with their funding needs. In principle, subsidiaries secure financing not from financial institutions such as insurance companies and banks outside the Group, but by utilizing our Cash Management Service, in which subsidiaries can secure financing from financing subsidiaries and overseas trading affiliates of the Company. Through this service, we are working towards centralization of financing and the efficient use of funds. Interest-bearing debt (excluding lease liability) outstanding as of March 31, 2026, totaled 5,122.9 billion yen, marking a 813.0 billion yen increase from the previous fiscal year-end.

Systems to Ensure that Directors and Employees Comply with Laws and Regulations, and the Articles of Incorporation Commitment to "BUSINESS CONDUCT GUIDELINES FOR EMPLOYEES AND OFFICERS OF MITSUI & CO., LTD." by officers and employees, based on the Company's positioning of Compliance and Integrity, namely, compliance with laws and regulations and maintaining corporate ethics and employee ethics as one of the most important issues for all officers and employees in the course of business. The Company has established the Compliance Committee, headed by the Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), promotes integrity mindset, and carries out compliance training and other measures to ensure thorough compliance. The Company establishes several internal and external whistle-blowing lines and conducts periodical monitoring to ensure its compliance regime is observed while also taking disciplinary actions on violations. Audit & Supervisory Board Members monitor the observance of all relevant laws and regulations and the Articles of Incorporation, among other things, by Directors and employees in the performance of their duties. The Company appointed External Directors to strengthen the supervisory function of the Board of Directors and established advisory committees (Governance Committee, Nomination Committee and Remuneration Committee) that include External Members as committee members, in order to enhance objectivity and transparency of management. Status of Operations of the Above Systems Compliance and Integrity The Company makes serious efforts on a global group basis to ensure that all officers and employees are aware of the importance of compliance and that they act with integrity, while preventing compliance violations by maintaining its status as an organization with integrity. Almost five years have passed since the establishment of "Mitsui & Co. Group Conduct Guidelines - With Integrity", and after deliberation at the Executive Committee and the Board of Directors, reflecting the changing trends in the world, the Company disclosed a revised version in June 2024. (URL: https://www.mitsui.com/jp/en/sustainability/governance/compliance/index.html ) Each fiscal year, the Company ensures confirmation of the pledges on the "BUSINESS CONDUCT GUIDELINES FOR EMPLOYEES AND OFFICERS OF MITSUI & CO., LTD." by all officers and employees and conducts various training programs to ensure sound compliance awareness and integrity are in place. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, we prepared E-learning lessons based on actual incidents that have occurred and all officers and employees undertook these lessons. Additionally, the theme for "With Integrity Month", held in November 2025, was "Exploring Integrity in the Digital and AI Era - Maintaining Our Trust from Society and Building Bright Future". Group-wide programs were conducted to encourage consideration of both the risks of information leakage (safety net) and the benefits of improved decision-making quality and operational efficiency through information sharing (merits). These programs also served as an opportunity to raise awareness about new information utilization and management. Initiatives included the issuance of messages from the President and the management team, team discussions, lectures on AI governance, and the production of live-action videos. Video messages by External Members relaying episodes where they felt integrity was important are also distributed internally. Concerning the operational status of the compliance framework, further improvements to the framework are made through active deliberations in the reports given to the Executive Committee and the Board of Directors semiannually. In addition, the Company examines and carries out recurrence prevention measures and preventive measures against incidents of non-compliance through deliberation at the Compliance Committee (held twice in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, and will be renamed to the Integrity Committee in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027), which is attended by Chief Operating Officers of business units and which adopts a business frontline perspective. Furthermore, the Company conducted a compliance awareness survey in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 and with the cooperation of each unit, continued to strengthen initiatives to prevent the occurrence of compliance issues while measuring organizational working environment, harassment prognosis, and so forth from numerical data and free-form comments from employees. In addition, while analyzing and confirming the causes of incidents of non-compliance that are similar in type to those that occur within the Group, the Company is carrying out efforts to promote individual measures aimed at the eradication of non-compliant activities. Regarding the whistleblowing system, which serves as the core internal control mechanism for discovering problems, the Company introduced the anonymous whistleblowing response system in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, in addition to the existing reporting and consultation channels, with the aim of improving confidence in the whistleblowing system and encouraging employees to use it, thereby promoting the environment that facilitates speaking up if they believe that there is a compliance-related issue. Monitoring by the Audit & Supervisory Board Members The Audit & Supervisory Board Members conduct audits of the decision-making process of the management team through attending the Board of Directors meetings and other important meetings, such as meetings of the Executive Committee and inspecting decision-making documents, and monitor the execution of duties through auditing activities including regular meetings with the management team and coordination with the Independent Auditor and the Internal Auditing Division. Strengthening the Supervisory Function of the Board of Directors and Enhancing the Objectivity and Transparency of Management The Company appointed six External Directors from diverse backgrounds to utilize their expert knowledge and experience in management and oversight. External Directors provide opinions and viewpoints based on various specialties and are significantly contributing to strengthening the supervisory functions through diverse analyses of topics and issues deliberated by the Board of Directors. In order to ensure the effective exercise of the Board of Directors' supervisory function, the Company regularly reviews the criteria for matters to be submitted to the Board of Directors for resolution or reporting to the Board of Directors, and solicits opinions from Directors and Audit & Supervisory Board Members regarding Board agenda items and themes for free discussion sessions. In the review of the Board of Directors' resolution and reporting criteria conducted in April 2026, the Company clarified that matters determined by the Executive Committee to be submitted to the Board of Directors for resolution or reporting shall be submitted to the Board of Directors for resolution or reporting, even if they do not individually meet the prescribed criteria, thereby promoting the further enhancement of the framework for the Board's supervisory function. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026, free-discussion sessions for Directors and Audit & Supervisory Board Members were held in September 2025 on the themes of "Post-current Medium-term Management Plan Grand Design" and "Human Capital Management". While the Governance Committee (four meetings), Nomination Committee (five meetings), and Remuneration Committee (four meetings) carried out discussion in light of the opinions of External Members and put effort into ensuring the objectivity and transparency of management, each advisory committee made further efforts to report to and share information with the Board of Directors. The Governance Committee discussed evaluation of the effectiveness of the Board of Directors for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2026 and a revision of internal rules and guidelines as to Board of Directors resolutions and reporting criteria, among other matters. The Nomination Committee continued to work to enhance the information and materials provided to External Members and discussed the succession plan of Directors/Managing Officers.

Note 4: Core Operating Cash Flow is calculated by deducting the total of the "Changes in operating assets and liabilities" from the "Cash flows from operating activities", and further deducting the "Repayments of lease liabilities" in the "Cash flows from financing activities" from it, in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Year ended March 31, 2026) Ⅰ. Basic Significant Matters Regarding Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements Subsidiaries and equity method investees Subsidiaries 278 Mitsui Energy Development Co., Ltd., Mitsui Iron Ore Development Pty. Ltd., Mitsui-Itochu Iron Pty. Ltd., Mitsui & Co. Iron Ore Exploration & Mining Pty. Ltd., Mitsui Bussan Commodities Ltd. and others Equity method investees (associated companies and joint ventures) 168 Japan Australia LNG (MIMI) Pty. Ltd., Penske Automotive Group, Inc., IHH Healthcare Berhad and others A total of 527 subsidiaries and equity method investees are excluded from the above. These include companies which are sub-consolidated or accounted for under the equity method by subsidiaries other than trading subsidiaries. Primary investee over which Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (the "Company") does not have control despite ownership percentage of more than 50% is as follows: Nutrinova Netherlands B.V. The Company is the largest shareholder, owning 70% of Nutrinova Netherlands B.V. ("Nutrinova"). The Company entered into a shareholder's agreement with the second largest shareholder owning 30% of Nutrinova's voting shares. Based on the agreement, significant decisions regarding Nutrinova's operations require unanimous consent by the Company and the second largest shareholder. The rights given to the second largest shareholder in the agreement are considered as substantive participating rights, and the Company does not individually control Nutrinova. Accordingly, the Company accounts for its investment in Nutrinova under the equity method. Basis of consolidated financial statements The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS Accounting Standards"), in compliance with Article 120, paragraph 1 of the Ordinance on Company Accounting. In accordance with the provision of the paragraph, certain disclosures required on the basis of IFRS Accounting Standards have been omitted. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries (which are controlled either directly or indirectly through voting or similar rights), and structured entities ("SEs"). They are collectively called the "companies", where the Company or one of its subsidiaries have control. SEs are entities controlled through means other than voting or similar rights. The word "control" is used based on its definition in IFRS 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements", so that the companies consider all facts and circumstances, including existing rights and substantive rights included within agreements with investees. The consolidated financial statements include financial statements of certain subsidiaries with different fiscal year-ends from that of the Company, as the Company considers it impracticable to unify the fiscal year-ends of such subsidiaries with that of the Company. Major consolidated subsidiaries with different fiscal year-ends include subsidiaries that operate exploration, development and production of oil and gas. As the Company is mainly a non-operator in such operations and the financial information is prepared by the operators, the Company is unable to obtain necessary information from the operators in time for the preparation of the Company's year-end consolidated financial statements. For the same reason, it is also impracticable to prepare additional financial statements for these subsidiaries as of the same date as the Company's year-end date. Therefore, financial information for such subsidiaries with fiscal year-ends of December 31 is included in the Company's consolidated results. There are other consolidated subsidiaries for which it is also considered impracticable to unify on fiscal year-ends with on the Company's due to requirements of local laws and regulations, and it is also impracticable to prepare additional financial statements for these subsidiaries as of the same date as the Company's year-end date due to certain facts and circumstances such as local business practices and the environment surrounding their respective accounting systems. The fiscal year-ends of such consolidated subsidiaries are mainly December 31. Adjustments are made for the effects of significant transactions or events that occur between the end of the fiscal years of such consolidated subsidiaries and that of the Company. Changes in the companies' ownership interests that are made while retaining their controlling financial interests in their subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. When the companies cease to have their controlling financial interests, any retained investments are measured at their fair value at that date. The difference between the fair value and the carrying amount of the retained non-controlling investments is recognized as gain (loss) on securities and other investments-net. Investments in associated companies and joint arrangements Associated companies are entities over which the Company and its subsidiaries own 20% or more of the voting rights. The exceptions to this rule include the entities in which it can be clearly demonstrated that the Company and its subsidiaries are unable to exercise significant influence over the financial and operating policy decisions of the investees, or those whereby the companies have the ability to exercise significant influence despite holding less than 20% ownership. Investments in associated companies are accounted for using the equity method. Joint arrangements are arrangements in which decisions about relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. When the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have substantial rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement, the arrangement is a joint operation. When an arrangement is structured through a separate vehicle and the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement, the arrangement is classified as a joint venture. A joint operation is accounted for by recognizing the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses relating to its interest in the joint operation. A joint venture is accounted for using the equity method. Robe River Iron Associates (the Company's percentage of ownership: 33%), which conducts iron ore mining activities in Australia, is a major joint operation. Losses recognized under the equity method are recorded in Share of Profit (Loss) of Investments Accounted for Using the Equity Method in the Consolidated Statements of Income or in Other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, considering the priority of recoverability of assets related to the losses among other things. The consolidated financial statements include some associated companies, joint ventures and joint operations with different fiscal year-ends from that of the Company. It is impracticable to unify the fiscal year-ends due to the requirement of local laws and regulations and relationships with other shareholders. It is also impracticable to prepare additional financial statements as of the same date as the financial statements of the companies due to certain factors such as local business practices and the environment surrounding their respective accounting systems. The fiscal year-ends of associated companies, joint ventures and joint operations are generally December 31. Adjustments are made for the effects of significant transactions or events that occur between the end of the fiscal years of such associated companies, joint ventures and joint operations and that of the Company. The companies discontinue the use of the equity method from the date when an investment ceases to be an associated company or a joint venture. Any retained investments are measured at their fair value at that date, and the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount of the retained investments is recognized as gain (loss) on securities and other investments-net. Regarding impairment of investments accounted for using the equity method, please refer to "Impairment and its reversal of non-financial assets and investments accounted for using the equity method" . Business combinations In accordance with IFRS 3 "Business Combinations", all business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. This is a method where all assets and liabilities of an acquired company, including non- controlling interests, are measured at fair value. The differences between consideration transferred and the net fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities are recognized as goodwill when the consideration transferred is in excess of the net fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities. If the net fair value of identifiable assets and liabilities exceed the consideration transferred, the excess is recognized immediately as a gain in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the year. Foreign currency translation The assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries and equity method investees are translated into Japanese yen using the spot exchange rate at the respective reporting date. All income and expense accounts are translated into Japanese yen using average rates of exchange for the respective reporting period. The resulting translation adjustments are recognized in other components of equity. Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currencies of individual companies using the spot exchange rate at the date of transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities, and non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at fair value denominated in foreign currencies are translated into functional currencies using the spot exchange rate at the reporting date. The exchange differences arising from translation are recognized in profit for the year. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the spot exchange rate at the date of transaction. Cash equivalents Cash equivalents are defined as short-term (original maturities of three months or less), highly liquid investments which are readily convertible into cash and have no significant risk of change in value. These include certificates of deposit, time deposits, financing bills and commercial paper with original maturities of three months or less. Inventories Inventories, consisting mainly of commodities and materials for sale, are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The cost of inventory items that is not ordinarily interchangeable is assigned by using specific identification of their individual costs. For those items that are interchangeable, the costs are mainly assigned by using the weighted-average cost formula. Inventories acquired for the purpose of being sold in the near term to profit from fluctuations in price are measured at fair value less costs to sell, and changes in the fair value less costs to sell are recognized in profit for the year. Financial instruments Non-derivative financial assets Trade and other receivables are recognized at fair value on initial recognition. Regular purchases of other financial assets are recognized at fair value on the trade date. These financial assets are derecognized if they satisfy any of the following conditions: -the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset have expired; or -the contractual rights to receive the cash flows of the financial asset have been transferred, and substantially all risks and rewards of the ownership of financial asset have been transferred. Non-derivative financial assets are classified and measured as follows: Non-derivative financial assets that are debt instruments are measured at amortized cost if they meet the following two criteria: held for the purpose of collecting contractual cash flows, and have contractual terms which give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Amortized cost is calculated by using the effective interest rate method. For financial assets measured at amortized cost, the companies consider if an impairment has occurred. Please see 3) Impairment of financial assets regarding impairment . Equity financial instruments and non-derivative financial assets that do not satisfy the requirements to be measured at amortized cost are measured at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL"). However, for certain equity financial instruments held primarily for the purpose of enhancing the revenue base by maintaining or strengthening the trade relationship with the investees, the companies elect at initial recognition to designate these instruments as at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI"). When financial assets measured at FVTOCI are derecognized, the accumulated other components of equity are directly reclassified to retained earnings without being recognized in profit for the year. Dividend income received on financial assets measured at FVTOCI is recognized in profit for the year in principle. Non-derivative financial liabilities The companies have non-derivative financial liabilities including corporate bonds and loans payable, trade and other payables, and other financial liabilities. Corporate bonds issued by the companies are recognized on the issue date and all other non-derivative financial liabilities are recognized on the trade date at fair value plus or minus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial liabilities. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-derivative financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The companies derecognize a non-derivative financial liability only when it is extinguished (that is, the underlying obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires). Impairment of financial instruments For financial assets that are measured at amortized costs and financial guarantee contracts, the companies measure the loss allowance at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses if the credit risk on a financial asset has not increased significantly since initial recognition, and measure the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition. However, for trade receivables recognized based on the IFRS 15 " Revenue from Contracts with Customers " and contract assets, the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit loss without assessing whether the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition. When determining significant increases in the credit risk and measuring expected credit losses, both quantitative and qualitative information is considered to provide reason and support. The information includes reasonable and available forward-looking information, as well as internal information such as historical credit loss experience, past due information and internal credit ratings. The loss allowance is measured by a function using probability of default, loss given default, discount factor and exposures based on this information. In addition, the companies determine that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition in principal when contractual payments are more than 30 days past due. Information such as significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the debtor or a breach of contract such as payments past due are used for determining if any of the counterparties is in the default. If the debtor is under legal reorganization and in financial failure or has issues repaying debts due to financial difficulty, although it may not yet be in financial failure, or the principal and interest payments are 90 days past due as of the reporting date, the companies determine that the default has occurred and an objective evidence of credit impairment exists. The loss allowance for the credit-impaired financial asset is also measured in the same way as financial assets that are not credit-impaired. In addition, loss allowance for certain credit-impaired financial asset is individually measured by the estimation of expected credit losses by using the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate based on the original terms of the contract, or at fair value of the collateral if their value depends on the collateral based on the latest information and events. The financial assets are directly written off when certain conditions are met. The following are examples of when it is reasonably determined that all or part of a financial asset is not collectable: write-off of financial assets by legal liquidation, obtaining of evident facts that suggest that it is impossible for the debtors to repay their debts from their perceived solvency and/or asset situation, and arrearage of payment after a certain period of time after a suspension of business operations. The provision or the reversal of loss allowance is recognized in profit for the year. Finance income and costs Finance income and costs consist of items such as interest income, interest expense, dividend income and gain or loss on hedging instruments recognized in profit or loss for the year. Interest income and interest expense are recognized using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognized on the date when the rights of the companies to received dividends vest. See 5) Derivative instruments and hedging activities for accounting for gains or losses arising from hedging instruments. Derivative instruments and hedging activities The companies are exposed to market risks related to foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices in the ordinary course of business. In order to mitigate or reduce these risks, the companies use derivative instruments, such as foreign exchange forward contracts, currency swap agreements, interest rate swap agreements, commodity futures, forwards, options and swap contracts. These derivative instruments hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value or expected future cash flows of recognized assets and liabilities, unrecognized firm commitments or forecasted transactions. The companies also use derivative instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, such as foreign currency-denominated debt, to hedge foreign currency exposure to net investments in foreign operations. The companies recognize all derivative instruments as an asset or a liability at fair value as at the date on which they become party to the relevant agreement. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivative instruments are measured at fair value with any changes in fair value accounted for as follows: Fair value hedges Derivative instruments held for the purpose of eliminating the risk of changes in the fair value of hedged items are designated as fair value hedges and subject to the assessment of hedge effectiveness. To the extent that they satisfy the requirements for hedge accounting, the companies include the gain or loss on the hedged items in the same line item as the offsetting loss or gain on the derivative instruments designated as hedging instruments mainly as interest expense. Cash flow hedges Derivative instruments held for the purpose of offsetting the variability in cash flows of the hedged items are designated as cash flow hedges. To the extent that they are effective, any changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income until cash flows of the hedged item affect gain or loss. The amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified into profit for the year mainly as revenue, cost, interest expense and other income (expense)-net when earnings are affected by the hedged items. Hedges of net investments in foreign operations Foreign currency transaction gain or loss on derivative instruments and non-derivative financial instruments that are designated as hedging instruments and deemed effective to reduce the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation are recorded as foreign currency translation adjustments within other comprehensive income to the extent they are effective as a hedge. The amounts in other components of equity are reclassified into profit for the year mainly as gain (loss) on securities and other investments-net when the related investment is sold completely or partially, or the liquidation of the investment is completed. The ineffective portion of the hedging instruments' gain or loss and the component of the derivative instruments' gain or loss excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness are recorded immediately in profit for the year mainly as other income (expenses)-net. Derivative instruments for trading purposes The Company and certain subsidiaries use derivative instruments for trading purposes within certain position and loss limits. Derivative instruments for trading purposes are measured at fair value and changes in fair value are recorded in profit for the year as other revenue. Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is presented in the consolidated statements of financial position when, and only when, the companies currently have a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and intend either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Leasing The companies are engaged in finance and operating lease businesses. Leases are classified as finance leases whenever they transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. Leases other than finance leases are classified as operating leases. For finance leases, unearned income is amortized to income over the lease term at a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment. Operating lease income is recognized as revenue over the term of underlying leases using the straight-line method. The companies are also lessees of various assets. If a contract is, or contains, a lease, leases are recognized as a lease liability and a corresponding right-of-use asset at the date at which the asset is available for use by the companies. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to interest expense over the lease term at a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. Lease term includes periods of an option to extend the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option and an option to terminate the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain not to exercise that option. Note that short-term leases and leases for which the underlying asset is of low value apply exemption rules of the standards, and recognize the lease payments associated with those leases as an expense mainly on straight-line basis over the lease term. Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are measured based on the cost model and are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment, except for land and projects in progress, is computed principally under the straight-line method, using rates based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives for buildings and vessels and aircrafts are primarily 2 to 50 years and 3 to 20 years, respectively. Equipment and fixtures are primarily depreciated using the straight-line method (the estimated useful lives are primarily 2 to 30 years) or the unit-of-production method. Mineral rights are primarily amortized using the unit-of-production method. Investment property Investment property is measured by using the cost model and is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation of investment property is computed principally under the straight-line method, using rates based upon the estimated useful lives of the related investment property. The estimated useful lives for investment properties are primarily 2 to 50 years. Intangible assets Intangible assets include goodwill arising from the acquisition of subsidiaries. Intangible assets are measured based on the cost model and intangible assets with finite estimated useful lives are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite estimated useful lives are not amortized and are presented at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Software is primarily amortized over 5 years using the straight-line method. Impairment and its reversal of non-financial assets and investments accounted for using the equity method Non-financial assets and investments accounted for using the equity method are quarterly assessed to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amounts of the non-financial asset and investment are estimated. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment annually. For investments accounted for using the equity method, the entire carrying amount of the investment is tested for impairment as a single asset. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit ("CGU") is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use and is determined as an individual asset, when the asset generates cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. If the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and the carrying amount is written down to its recoverable amount. The impairment loss is then recognized in loss for the year. For assets other than goodwill, an assessment is made quarterly as to whether there is any indication of impairment that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed as income in profit for the year. The amount is reversed to the extent that the increased carrying amount of an asset does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined (net of amortization or depreciation) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years only if there has been a change in the assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount of the asset since the last impairment loss was recognized. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed. Oil and gas producing activities Oil and gas exploration and development costs are accounted for using the successful efforts method of accounting. The costs of acquiring properties, costs of drilling and equipping exploratory wells, and costs of development wells and related plant and equipment are capitalized, and amortized using the unit-of-production method. Exploratory well costs are expensed if economically recoverable reserves are not found. Other exploration costs, such as geological and geophysical costs, are expensed as incurred. Proved properties are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If the proved properties are determined to be impaired, an impairment loss is recognized based on the recoverable amount. Unproved properties are assessed whenever there is an indication of impairment, and if the unproved properties are determined to be impaired, impairment losses are charged to expense. The companies make a comprehensive evaluation and record impairment of unproved property based on various factors, such as remaining mining rights periods, examples of sales and purchases in neighboring areas, drilling results and seismic interpretations. Mining operations Mining exploration costs are expensed as incurred until commercial viability has been established. The exploration costs incurred after commercial viability has been established and development costs are capitalized, and are depreciated using either the unit-of-production method or straight-line method based on the proven and probable reserves. In surface mining operations, it is necessary to remove overburden and other waste materials to access mineral deposits. The costs of removing waste materials are referred to as "stripping costs". During the development of a mine, before production commences, such costs are generally capitalized as part of development costs. Removal of waste materials continues during the production stage of the mine. Such post-production stripping costs in relation to minerals produced during the fiscal year are variable production costs to be considered as a component of mineral inventory costs. These are recognized as a component of costs in the same period as the related revenues from sales of the minerals. In contrast, post-production stripping costs incurred that relate to minerals to be produced in the subsequent fiscal year are capitalized, and are amortized using either the unit-of-production method or straight-line method based on the proved and probable reserves. Provisions Provisions are recognized when the companies have a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that outflows of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and reliable estimates of the amount of the obligations can be made. Provisions are measured as the best estimate of the amount of expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted to their present value using a pretax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
