TOKYO, March 14, 2022 – As a global company aiming to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society that maintains a balance between the environment, society, and economic activities, the intensity and speed with which the humanitarian crisis is unfolding across Ukraine and the surrounding area are deeply distressing. The Ricoh Group is profoundly saddened by this tragic situation and offers condolences to all those affected. We are working to ensure that the safety and health of our employees, partners, and customers are given top priority.

In light of this situation, the Ricoh Group is taking the following measures:

• A crisis management support team has been set up to ensure a safe and secure environment for employees and their families in the affected areas
• Temporary shipment suspension of all devices to Russia
