POLITICAL

1. Volatile political climate in the UK, the EU, Middle East and Africa: Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) is a major business geography for the Air Line. Europe has faced political turmoil after exit of Britain from EU and many countries including UK have been victims of terrorism over the last two years. Middle East and African countries have also been impacted by growing civilian unrest and terrorism which is impacting business. ANA’s business in these markets may suffer if the environment deteriorates further.

2. Effect of International affairs: In an effort to find new growth prospects, The ANA Group has increased our foreign business. International affairs, however, because of tensions between the United States and China, the conflict in Russia and Ukraine, and other issues. The expansion of international air travel has coincided with economic globalization. The ANA Group revenues, however, could be adversely impacted if this trend slows down or reverses as a result of conflicts between major powers or if peace is not achieved as a result of war or conflict. Because of decreased inbound demand (foreign tourists visiting Japan, etc.), instability in the global situation could have an impact on both local and international businesses. Furthermore, instability may force aircraft to change routes since they are unable to fly over war or conflict zones, raising the cost of conducting business. These charges could have a significant impact. The ANA Group will watch that they don't rely too heavily on acquiring passengers in particular foreign nations or regions, but rather work towards a balanced approach. They will be adaptable in changing flight schedules and itineraries to lessen the impact in the event that an emergency response is needed in response to an escalation in the situation worldwide.

ENVIRONMENTAL

1. Initiatives to become a leading eco-friendly airline: Aviation industry is one of the major industries responsible for carbon emissions accounting for around 12% of CO2 emissions from transport sources. Environmental and consumer sustainability with regards to business operations is critical for consumer-centric aviation player such as All Nippon Airways (ANA). ANA has developed a transition plan for becoming carbon neutral by 2050. The use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), which is anticipated to have a substantial impact on CO2 reduction, is one of the most crucial components of this plan. SAF manufacture is still restricted and expensive on a worldwide scale. To promote the development and production of SAF in Japan, the Ministries of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism, as well as the Ministries of Economy, Trade, and Industry, established a combined public-private sector council in June 2022. ANA Group is stepping up some initiatives in cooperation with various non-airline industries in addition to the aviation industry. For instance, Raven SR, a renewable fuels firm, has reached an agreement with All Nippon Airways (ANA) to supply sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) for significant global routes. The deal calls for 50,000 tonnes of SAF in 2025, with annual increments to 200,000 tonnes by year 10. Raven SR will manufacture the fuel in significant worldwide markets outside of Japan to service ANA's unique overseas itineraries.
