5. 5 President message By “Accounting Singularityˮ, Solving Labor Shortages and Achieving Strategic Accounting to Enhance Corporate Value It is said that Albert Einstein, who had the highest IQ among humans, had an IQ of 180. On the other hand, it is predicted that AI after the singularity could have an IQ of 4,000. We are entering an era where it is meaningless for humans to compete with AI in terms of simple functions like calculation power and memory. While AI is expected to possess overwhelming computational power and memory, how should we assess the current state of a company based on numbers? How can we grow the business, what should be the ideal future, and what steps should be taken to achieve it? These are the types of judgments that AI is not capable of making. We believe that these are the very tasks that the accounting department of a company should focus on. Accounting is the universal language of the world, and accounting challenges are common worldwide. Currently, we mainly support the realization of accounting DX (digital transformation) for domestic companies, but in the future, we aim to advance this initiative globally with data-driven solutions for more strategic accounting.

14. 14 Issues in Accounting Operations 1/2 In the accounting fields, analog operations continue to remain. Manual data entry tasks Many tasks are concentrated at the end / beginning of the month Manual verification and checking tasks The tasks of data entry and journalizing in accounting still involve repetitive manual checks, judgments, and simple tasks, and the drastic fluctuations in workload between the end / beginning of the month and mid-month are also challenges faced by accounting departments.

15. 15 Issues in Accounting Operations 2/2 The labor shortage not only increases the burden of ERP-related tasks for accurate and fast accounting but also makes it difficult to create time for improving corporate value. Chronic labor shortages The trend of a declining workforce is also pushing into the accounting department. Hiring accounting personnel is becoming increasingly difficult year by year, leading to chronic labor shortages.
