1 REPORTING NOTES About this Report This 2019 Sustainability Report covers Fuji Xerox New Zealand’s FY2018 reporting year, from April 2018 to March 2019. This reporting period follows on from our inaugural 2018 Sustainability Report, covering combined FY2016 and FY2017 information. This report has been prepared in accordance with the GRI Standards: Core Option and should be viewed as an extension of the 2018 Sustainability Report. The company’s operational footprint, reporting scope and boundaries, stakeholders, material topics, and GRI General Disclosures are already defined therein and have not significantly changed unless noted in a very few instances. This larger body of background material can be referenced in the previous report, and the 2019 Sustainability Report is presented in a more concise format noting this. Future sustainability reports will be released annually in an optimised format and length in accordance with GRI Standards, and are also likely to include the company’s financial disclosures. The next report will be the 2020 Sustainability Report. Fujifilm’s Sustainable Value Plan 2030 Fuji Xerox’s sole shareholder Fujifilm Group has previously announced its Sustainable Value Plan 2030 to lay the foundations of its business management strategies for sustainable growth by FY2030. Under SVP 2030, the Fujifilm Group will introduce measures to help address global social issues through its business activities, including the launch of innovative technologies, products and services to develop a company that can make a greater contribution to creating a sustainable society.

2 A WORD FROM PETER THOMAS Our FY18 Sustainability Update: A Year of Change and Progress It’s hard to believe it’s already been a year since the release of our landmark GRI report in 2018 – the largest and most significant undertaking our company has ever made in this area, and a real milestone for how we integrate sustainability across our business. Looking back on it now, it’s even more rewarding to see how far we’ve come since then. The last year has been transformative for our business. We continued to implement our turnaround plan and enact the governance, operations, and performance improvements needed to put Fuji Xerox New Zealand on a path to profitability. But we also made changes that set the long-term direction for our company. That included exiting some ancillary product lines, like office supplies and 3D printing equipment. A new ‘back to basics’ approach has become the cornerstone of our sales strategy, lifting our performance and reconnecting us with our heritage and expertise in document technologies and services. Despite being a period of change within the business, there are also constants as well. We’ve noticed how issues like climate change, e-waste and plastic pollution have advanced in international discourse, and that they are now a common theme in discussions with our customers. It’s vital to our business that we make these issues a priority in how we address the future. Accordingly, we’ve been hard at work delivering against our 19x19 Sustainability Targets as outlined in our Sustainability Report last year, and I’m pleased to report that we’ve achieved 53% of our FY19 goals already. In particular, we’ve made outstanding headway in Energy, Carbon and Transport reduction. 4 | 2019 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT UPDATE
For example, consider: 19x19 Goal 9: Reduce our operational energy consumption by 3% based on FY17 benchmark. Our Progress: Exceeded our target, having reduced energy consumption by 10.11% through a range of initiatives large and small. In Auckland, we consolidated our Carlton We have also started to think about what’s Gore Road headquarters onto one floor ahead for 2020 and beyond.

For instance, we provide customers with data on 19x19 Goal 11: Reduce our FY18 air travel their printing-related environmental footprint, carbon footprint by 5% based on FY17 and can help optimise their processes with benchmarks. digital solutions that can boost productivity while consuming fewer resources.

I’ll look forward to reporting resource use: back on progress in these areas in our next sustainability update. 19x19 Goal 16: Reduce our operational (branch and facility) waste by 5% from In the meantime, thanks for your continued FY17 benchmarks. support and encouragement in this area.

Sincerely, But not all progress is measured in numbers. We have also continued to maintain our leadership position in product stewardship by partnering with the Sustainable Business Network and its Circular Economy Accelerator programme, working closely with our vendors to Peter Thomas improve and innovate, and participating in the Managing Director Climate Leaders Coalition.

4 GRI DISCLOSURES FY18 GRI Indicators and Related Data Summary As noted earlier, our GRI Standard disclosures are consistent with the 2018 Sustainability Report, unless otherwise noted. An index of these can be viewed therein on pages 128/129. We present indicator data in the following table for FY18, compared with FY17 data, and related background information.

NET CHANGE BACKGROUND INFORMATION FY17 - FY18 - Note: New disclosure item due to changes as noted. -22.2% Part Omitted: Data provided is on weight, not on percentage of units sold and reclaimed. -7.78% Reason: Confidentiality Constraints. Explanation: Given the competitive nature of our industry, providing the number of products sold is commercially sensitive. Thus we have only provided total weights of overall product and associated packaging recycled for FY17 and FY18. This has been provided by our recycling partners. -38.87% Number of machines refurbished and recycled depends on business activities, customer participation in our product stewardship scheme and market demand throughout each year. -4.24% Note: Focus of FY18-19 was to reduce operational energy consumption by 3%, and this target has been met. Part Omitted: Data for some of our leased sites has been extrapolated. -22.17% Reason: Information unavailable. Explanation: Due to the nature of some of our leases being at shared sites, energy data for all leased sites cannot be obtained. To ensure we have a quality estimation of our Scope 2 emissions, data has been extrapolated by calculating average energy use per m2 on the area for each type of site for those where data is unattainable e.g. branch, print hub or warehouse. Assumption: We recorded 100% renewable energy use for FY17 and FY18. -22.17% Reason: Our energy supplier generated 100% renewable energy during FY17 and FY18. Prior to that it was unclear what portion was renewables versus fossil fuel derived. Explanation: We purchase 100% renewable energy from electricity providers Meridian Energy and Mercury. During FY16 we didn’t have a way to clearly identify what percentage of power was generated from a renewable source and therefore an assumption was made. - This was based on New Zealand having roughly 80% renewable energy and 20% non-renewable. Data Source and Calculation Method: Utility bills converting kWh * 3.6 = MJ -19.89% Part Omitted: No FY16 specific data recorded. -43.39% Reason: No document trail of fuel breakdown is available. Notes: Decline in Diesel and Unleaded 91 fuel use is a result of transitioning away from vehicles using Diesel and switching to electric models as part of fleet transition, resulting in significant decreases. -17.54% Data Source and Calculation Method: Fuel bills in litres of fuel converted MJ was done using Carbon Trust conversion factors 2011 with the conversion factor 1L = 11.85 Kwh = 3.6 MJ. +7.68% 2019 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT UPDATE | 9

Reason: Calculating by spend caused an inaccurate representation of an emissions increase as our cost increased between FY17 and FY18 when in reality we achieved a decrease in distance travelled. -11.63% Notes: Taxi travel includes ride hail apps like Uber and carshare programmes like Mevo. We are aware that the majority of Uber trips are done by Hybrid cars but there is no emissions factor available to reflect this yet.
