5. Status of Employees
(1) Consolidated Basis
The Group had 20,962 employees as of December 31, 2021.
Segment-specific information is omitted because the majority of the Group's employees are related to both the
Automobile Business and the Industrial/Infrastructure/IoT Business.
The number of employees is the number of persons engaged in work (excluding employees seconded from the Group
to outside the Group, but including those seconded from outside the Group to the Group). The number of temporary
employees is omitted because it is less than 10/100 of the number of employees.

II. Business Conditions
1. Management Policy, Management Environment and Issues to be Addressed etc.
(1) Sales Growth, Appropriate Cost Control, and Optimization of Production Structure
Firstly, the Group's sales increased during this Business Period compared to the previous year as a result of
recovering demand for automobiles and infrastructure development accelerating in line with digitization trends triggered
by the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as the acquisition of Dialog reaching completion in August 2021. Additionally, design-
in, which is a source of future sales revenue, was 8% over target for this Business Period, an increase of 6% year on
year. To achieve further sales growth, the Group will strive to expand and strengthen its product portfolio and necessary
technologies through both an organic approach (expanding and strengthening existing businesses) and an inorganic
approach (leveraging strategic alliances with other companies, acquisitions, and similar initiatives).Through the organic
approach, the Group will promote intensive investment in research and development in the Group's focus areas. Specific
areas of focus include SoCs for automated driving and automated driving assistance, microcontrollers for automotive
domain control, Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs) for xEVs, mixed signal products for ADAS and xEVs,
microcontrollers mounting ARM cores and RISC-V cores, Battery Management Systems (BMS), MPUs with built-in
Dynamically Reconfigurable Processor-AI (DRP-AI), and analog and mixed signals for data centers and 5G-related
products. Meanwhile, the Group will take an inorganic approach by continuing to develop winning combinations and
other initiatives to maximize synergies with Dialog and Celeno, which were acquired during this Business Period, in
addition to the previously acquired former Intersil and IDT. In addition, through further M&A, the Group will, in a timely
manner, expand its product portfolio and technologies to areas currently not held by the Group.
Secondly, on the cost front, despite the ongoing rise in transport costs due to the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic,
the Group continues to implement logistics realignment measures, and the effects of these were seen in this Business
Period. In terms of improving operational and IT system efficiency, the Group is strategically investing in integrating its
existing the ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system, and believes these benefits will be felt over the mid- to long-
term. In the short term, the Group will strive to control costs appropriately while ensuring it makes strategic investments
necessary for future sales growth and business efficiency.
On the production front, the operating rates of the Group's production bases during the fiscal year under review were
57% for the 6-inch production plant, 97% for the 8-inch production plant, 75% for the 12-inch production plant, and 84%
for all plants on average. Against the backdrop of a worldwide supply shortage of microcontrollers and SoCs for in-
vehicle control and other semiconductors, the Group will work to expand production volumes at contract manufacturers
in addition to expanding facilities at its own plants to ensure a stable supply. In addition, in light of the fire at the Naka
Factory in March last year, the Group will strive to take disaster prevention measures, including expanding firefighting
facilities and predictive maintenance systems at its own plants.

(6) Optimizing the Employee Portfolio
At this end of the Business Period, the Group's regional headcount was 45% in Japan, 10% in North America, 10%
in Europe, and 35% in Asia-Pacific.
From a medium- to long-term perspective, the Group will implement a variety of personnel measures with the aim of
achieving an optimal employee age composition and regional composition for the Group, as well as expanding the
number of employees engaged in important fields such as software and in fields that are expected to grow in the future.
Specifically, the Group will organize a global talent recruitment team and implement more globally aligned and
strategic recruitment activities in each region than ever before. At the same time, the Group will continue to optimize
the portfolio of Group employees, using an inorganic approach.

2. Risk Factors
The Group’s operations and financial results are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described
below, that could significantly affect investors’ judgment. In addition, the following statements include matters which might
not necessarily fall within the scope of such significant risks but are deemed important for investors’ judgment from a
standpoint of affirmative disclosure.
Statements regarding the future in the following paragraphs are based on the Group’s understanding of the information
available as of March 30, 2022.
(4) Competition
The semiconductor industry is extremely competitive, and the Group is exposed to fierce competition from competitors
around the world in areas such as product performance, structure, pricing and quality. In particular, certain competitors
have pursued acquisitions, consolidations, and business alliances, etc. in recent years and there is a possibility that such
actions will be taken in the future as well. As a result, the competitive environment surrounding the Group may further
intensify. To maintain and improve competitiveness, the Group takes various measures including development of leading-
edge technologies, standardizing design, cost reduction, and consideration of strategic alliances with third parties or
possibility of further acquisitions. In the event that the Group cannot maintain its competitiveness, the Group’s market
share may decline, which may negatively impact the Group’s financial results.
In addition, fierce market competition has subjected the products of the Group to sharp downward pressure on prices,
for which measures to improve profitability, such as price negotiations and efforts at cost price reduction, have been
- 16 -
unable to fully compensate. This raises the possibility of a worsening of the Group’s gross margin. Furthermore, in cases
where customers for the Group’s products for which the gross margin is low have difficulty switching to other products or
require a certain amount of time to secure replacements, it may be difficult for the Group to halt or reduce production in
a timely manner. This may result in a reduction in the profitability of the Group.
(8) Financing
While the Group has been procuring business funds by methods such as borrowing from financial institutions and
other sources, in the future it may become necessary to procure additional financing to implement business and
investment plans, expand manufacturing capabilities, acquire technologies and services, and repay debts. It is possible
that the Group may face limitations on its ability to raise funds due to a variety of reasons, including the fact that the
Group may not be able to acquire required financing in a timely manner or may face increasing financing costs due to
the worsening business environment in the semiconductor industry, worsening conditions in the financial and stock
markets, and changes in the financing policies of lenders. In addition, the Company may also finance acquisitions when
conducting acquisitions from financial institutions. For example, for the purpose of raising funds for the acquisition of
Dialog, which we announced in February 2021, the Company entered into a loan agreement (maximum total loan amount:
665.4 billion yen, including a Facilities Agreement and further amendments) with financial institutions, and as of August
2021 we had borrowed a total of 270 billion yen based on this agreement. Similarly to the loan agreement, in order to
finance the acquisition of Dialog, in June 2021 the Company completed a public offering and third-party allocation of new
shares to Daiwa Securities Co. Ltd., raising a total of approximately 222.6 billion yen. In addition, in order to refinance
the above loan to medium- to long-term funds, we entered into a syndicated loan agreement (total loan amount: 96
billion) with financial institutions including Mitsubishi UFJ Bank, Ltd., Mizuho Bank, Ltd., and Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank,
Ltd. and entered into a term loan agreement (total loan amount: 144 billion yen) with the Japan Bank for International
Cooperation. In addition to these, in November of the same year, as part of raising funds and diversifying financing
methods, we issued US dollar-denominated unsecured corporate bonds (including some green bonds), for a total of 1.35
billion US dollars. However, regardless of whether or not the Company raises funds through the issuance of new shares,
the Company will bear a large amount of interest-bearing liabilities by financing for company acquisitions, including the
acquisition of Dialog. If the initially expected cash flow generation or switching to long-term funds is not realized, the
Group's financial condition will deteriorate, credit ratings may be lowered, which may also increase funding costs or
constrain the Group's financing. In addition, some of the borrowing contracts executed between the Group and some
financial institutions stipulate articles of financial covenants. If the Group breaches these articles due to reasons such as
a deterioration of the Group's financial condition, the Group may lose the benefit of term on the contract, and it may
adversely influence the Group’s business performance and financial conditions.
- 17 -
of Directors held on December 10, 2012, we received an offer from the former Innovation Network Corporation of Japan
(business name changed to Japan Investment Corporation as of September 25, 2018) that they are willing to provide
additional investments or loans with an upper limit of 50 billion yen. However, former Innovation Network Corporation of
Japan underwent restructuring, forming a separate subsidiary entity as of September 21, 2018, leading to the new
subsidiary, INCJ, Ltd., to take over the contract initially undertaken with the former Innovation Network Corporation of
Japan. Currently, no specific details regarding the timing of or conditions associated with these additional investments or
loans have been determined, and there is no guarantee that these additional investments or loans will actually be
implemented. If investments occur based on this offer, further dilution of existing stock will occur, and this may adversely
impact existing shareholders. In addition, if loans are made under this offer, the Group’s outstanding interest-bearing
liabilities will increase, and this may impose restrictions on some of our business activities. Furthermore, if fluctuations
in interest rates occur in the future, the Group’s businesses, performance, and financial condition may be adversely
affected.

customers with the products they desire, that opportunities to sell the products in question will be lost, that the Group
will lose market share as customers switch to competing products, and that the relationship of the Group and its
customers will suffer.
On the other hand, if in response to a rise in demand for specific products the Group undertakes capital investment
with the aim of increasing production capacity, there is no guarantee that demand for the products in question will remain
strong once production capacity actually increases and afterward. There is a possibility that actual product demand may
turn out to be less than anticipated, in which case it may not be possible to recover the capital investment with the
anticipated earnings.

3. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Positions, Operating Results and Cash
Flows
An overview of the financial positions, operating results and cash flows (the “Operating Result”) as on a consolidated
basis of the Group for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 (“this Fiscal Year”).
Forward-looking statements concerning financial position, operating results and cash flow are prepared using the
Group’s judgment as of December 31, 2021.
Increase
December 31, 2020 December 31, 2021 (Decrease)
Billions of yen Billions of yen Billions of yen
Total assets 1,609.0 2,406.2 797.3
Total equity 619.7 1,161.5 541.8
Equity attributable to owners of parent 616.7 1,158.1 541.4
Equity ratio attributable to owners of parent (%) 38.3 48.1 9.8
Interest-bearing liabilities 693.7 830.9 137.2
Debt to Equity ratio 1.12 0.72 (0.40)
Total assets at December 31, 2021 were 2,406.2 billion yen, a 797.3 billion yen increase from December 31, 2020. This
was mainly due to increase in goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Dialog and Celeno. Total equity was 1,161.5 billion
yen, a 541.8 billion yen increase from December 31, 2020. This was mainly due to an increase in common stock and
capital surplus resulting from the issuance of new shares through a public offering, and an increase in other components
of equity such as translation adjustments of foreign exchange difference due to exchange rate fluctuations, and an
increase in retained earnings due to net income.
Equity attributable to owners of parent increased by 541.4 billion yen from December 31, 2021, and Equity ratio
attributable to owners of parent was 48.1%. In addition, Interest-bearing liabilities increased by 137.2 billion yen from
December 31, 2021, due to the issuance of bonds. Consequently, Debt to equity ratio was 0.72.

<Revenue>
Consolidated revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 was 994.4 billion yen, a 38.9% increase year on year.
This was mainly due to an increase in revenue in the Automotive Business as a result of the recovery from the reduced
vehicle production caused by the COVID-19 pandemic mostly during the first half of the fiscal year ended 2020, in addition
to an increase in revenue capturing demand expansion in the Industrial/Infrastructure/IoT Business and a sales increase
effect from the consolidation of Dialog following the completion of the acquisition on August 31, 2021. It should be noted
that as of September 14, 2021, Dialog has changed its company name to Dialog Semiconductor Limited.

Non-GAAP operating profit of the Industrial/Infrastructure/IoT Business for the year ended December 31, 2021 was
167.1 billion yen, a 77.4 billion yen increase year on year, due to the sales increase effect as well as an increase in profits
from gross margin improvements.
The Group announced the “Mid-Term Growth Strategy” and “Financial Model” on February 17, 2020. The Group set as
a long-term target of achieving sales growth exceeding that of the market through concentrated investment of
management resources in markets on which the Group is focusing its attention. The Group also targets to optimize
production efficiency, improve the product mix and realize synergies from the integrations of the former IDT, Dialog and
Celeno. The Group updated its existing financial model on September 29, 2021, targeting to achieve a 50-55% Non-GAAP
gross margin and a 25-30% Non-GAAP operating margin.
The targets in the "Mid-Term Growth Strategy" and "Financial Model" are the Group's long-term management objectives
as of the date of filing and we cannot guarantee that they will be achieved. Results may be affected by a number of risk
factors and other changes in the external environment, including the matters described under "Risk Factors" in the

5. Research and Development Activities
(1) Structure and Policy of Research and Development Activities
The Group's research and development activities include the development of devices, software, and systems that are
needed from the present to the near future. Products related to in-vehicle control and automotive information are
handled by Automotive Solution Business Unit, while products related to Industry/Infrastructure/IoT are handled by IoT
and Infrastructure Business Unit. We have established a system in which each business unit and the Production and
Technology Unit cooperate to take charge of common technologies across divisions, such as device and process
technologies, implementation technologies, and design platforms and test methods.
In addition, we utilize not only our own research and development resources, but also external resources as necessary,
such as outsourcing research to consortiums and external research institutions, and utilizing third parties to provide
optimal support to a wide range of fields and customers.
In the super-smart society, where all kinds of goods, such as home appliances and automobiles, are linked to the
network, and information is exchanged with one another and services provided, it is necessary to achieve organic
linkage and communication among the computing functions performed by digital products, such as microcontrollers and
system LSIs, which the Company has traditionally been strong; the sensing functions that are equivalent to the eyes,
ears, and noses of the people, in which analog products are strong; and the actuator functions that are used to drive
motors and other products, in which power products are strong. The Group will expand its product portfolio to support
a broad range of functions, from sensing to accelerator functions, and strengthen its solution (called “Winning
Combination”), which combines analog products with digital products. At the same time, we will realize growth in the
market by focusing on research and development activities to provide software such as IP (design assets) and OS as
platforms that can be commonly used for each application.
(ii) Announcement of an in-vehicle gateway solution combining the newly developed gateway SoC "R-Car S4" and
PMIC for the next generation of automotive central computers
The Group has announced automotive gateway solutions that combine the newly developed gateway SoC "R-Car
S4" and Power Management ICs (PMIC) for the next generation of automotive central computers.
This solution not only meets the high standards that will be required as automobile E/E architecture evolves in the
future, but also is a high-performance solution that accommodates multiple, diverse high-speed networks and is highly
equipped with security features and functional safety levels.
The "R-Car S4" that comprises this solution is designed with an emphasis on reusing existing software, and can
be used in conjunction with PMICs that operate seamlessly to improve user development efficiency. The PMICs also
achieve ultra low-power operation, and are capable of supplying 12 volts of automotive battery power as well as the
step-down voltage required by peripheral devices and other equipment, and can output up to 11 channels.
Sample shipments of both products have already started, and the Group has begun offering an evaluation board
for this solution. In addition to R-Car S4 and PMIC, this board is equipped with the "Autoclock RC2121x" timing ICs,
which is one of the Group's winning combinations.
By providing this solution, the Group is contributing to users' product design development efficiency and the
shortening of development time.
(iii) Announcement of communication infrastructure solutions at base stations and data centers
The Group has expanded its 5G Beam Forming IC portfolio and launched a 2 millimeter-wave device optimized for
5G and broadband radio.
This product is an 8-channel high-integrated transmitter receiver that can transmit and receive data, including
"F5288" for n257 frequency band (26.5GHz~29.5GHz) and "F5268" for n258/261 frequency band (24.25GHz~
27.5GHz). By using this product, users can respond to broadband signals not only for various base stations, but also
for fixed wireless access points, user premises equipment, and various other wireless infrastructures, enabling users
to design cost-effective phased array systems.
As a winning combination using this product, the Group has begun offering the up-down converters "F5728",
broadband mirroring synthetics "8V97003", and "Base Station Antenna and Front-End Solutions" combined with PMIC.

the Company, and the number of shares to be acquired upon exercise of one stock acquisition right (the “Number
of Shares to be Granted”) shall be 100 shares.
However, in the case of a stock split (including gratuitous allotment of shares of common stock of the Company;
the same applies hereinafter) or stock consolidation of shares of common stock of the Company by the Company
after the allotment date, the Number of Shares to be Granted shall be adjusted using the following formula with
respect to the stock acquisition rights that have not been exercised at the time of such stock split or stock
consolidation:
(Number of shares to be granted after adjustment) = (Number of shares to be granted before adjustment) × (Ratio
of stock split or stock consolidation)
In addition to the above, if, after the allotment date, the Company carries out a merger or company split, or deems
it necessary (to essentially the same extent) to adjust the Number of Shares to be Granted in other situations, the
Company may appropriately adjust the Number of Shares to be Granted to a reasonable extent.
Any fraction less than one share resulting from such adjustment shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share.
2. (1) The issue price per share to be issued upon exercise of the stock acquisition rights is the sum of the amount to
be paid when exercising the stock acquisition rights and the book value of the stock acquisition rights. The
“amount to be included in capital” shows the amount obtained by multiplying the issue price of shares by 0.5
(any fractions less than one whole Yen rounded up to the nearest whole Yen).

3. Dividend Policy
The Company distributes part of its earnings to shareholders in the form of dividends, while appropriating retained
earnings for the research and development of new products and capital expenditures, and maintaining a durable financial
structure capable of generating high earnings to maximize enterprise value. For each dividend period, payment
determinations are made with consideration of consolidated and non-consolidated income surplus, consolidated income,
forecast for income for the next and future periods, and cash flow status.
The Company’s basic policy is to pay dividends twice a year, i.e. interim and fiscal year-end dividends. The decision-
making body of the distribution of surplus is the ordinary general meeting of shareholders in the case of the year-end
dividends, and the Board of Directors in the case of interim dividends. The Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide
that “the Company may, by a resolution of the Board of Directors, make interim dividends of which record date is as of
June 30 of each year”.
The Company forewent dividend payment for the 20th fiscal year. The Company will divert its retained earnings for
strategic investment opportunities that will enable the Company to respond to rapid environmental changes in order to
thrive in the global marketplace, thus increasing shareholder profit by improving corporate value.
For the 21th fiscal year, whether the Company provides interim and year-end dividend payments remain undecided,
and the Company will immediately announce it when the decisions are made. In terms of shareholder return, the
Company aims to proceed with its own shares acquisitions as soon as possible prior to the payment of dividends.
[Renesas Culture]
<Transparent>
The leadership team‘s strategy and policy, the company’s current situation, as well as the issues and thoughts of each
business organization should be well understood among employees. This is also tightly connected to the “Agile” and
“Entrepreneurial” elements described below, and we believe it is fundamental for the success of every individual and
organization.
<Agile>
In order to respond to changes in a timely manner, it is necessary to identify the likely outcomes and implications as
quickly as possible, make decisions quickly, and rapidly take or correct actions. The Group must recognize situations,
make decisions and act at a high velocity. When a follow-up regarding a task is made from inside and outside the
company, employees should understand they are not being "Agile"
<Global>
Not only the markets that the Group operates in, but also our customers and our competitors are global, and in order
to thrive in this global environment, it is essential for us to have a global perspective ourselves. It is true the Group
needs better language skills, but there are many other simple steps the Group can take to facilitate communication,
such as organizing discussion agenda, issues, alternative solutions in advance. In particular, numbers are useful as
- 55 -
words. Whenever possible, use numbers to communicate, and try to share information more smoothly.
<Innovative>
In order for the Group to provide "Innovative" technologies and products and continue to create sustainable social
value, it is essential to practice "Innovative" way of conducting business and of thinking. Each and every one of our
employees should embody "Innovation" using their imagination and creativity to contribute to the realization of a richer
society.
< Entrepreneurial>
Individual employees should act professionally, voluntarily, and independently as if they are "running their own
business” and are responsible for the results they deliver. Based on our strategies and policies as a company, the
Group aims to develop employees who can think freely and create new value, without being constrained by existing
concepts.

(4) Executive Compensation and Related Matters
① Compensation for Directors and Corporate Auditors
(a) Compensation for Directors
Compensation for Directors who serve concurrently as Executive Officers is described in “② Compensation for
Executive Officers” below.
The basic policy regarding compensation for Directors who are not concurrently serve as Executive Officers is as
follows.
For Directors who do not concurrently serve as Executive Officers, the Company pays base salary as fixed
compensation up to the compensation limit as resolved at the General Meeting of Shareholders. For the purpose of
securing diverse and talented human resources and further raising awareness of their roles, the Company grants
some of such Director stock-based compensation (one-yen stock options with service continuity conditions until 2020,
and stock-based compensation where shares are delivered after vesting with service continuity conditions from 2021)
up to the compensation limit as resolved at the General Meeting of Shareholders.
The details of stock-based compensation are described below in “② Compensation for Executive Officers,” “(b)
Details,” “(i) Compensation Philosophy and Elements,” “(2) Stock-based Compensation,” and “<Stock Price-linked
Compensation (Long-Term Incentive (LTI))>.”
The Compensation Committee, which is entrusted with the distribution of individual executive compensation by the
Board of Directors, sets the compensation ratio, level, and mix of compensation for each Director who does not
concurrently serve as Executive Officers, taking into account the appropriate ratios and levels in light of the above-
mentioned basic policies, corresponding to the duties of the Directors. The Compensation Committee is composed
of a majority of Outside officers and is chaired by an Outside Director.

(Note) 1. As of the end of the current consolidated fiscal year, there were 6 Directors (including 5 Outside Directors) and
4 Corporate Auditors (including 3 Outside Corporate Auditors).
2. Compensation for Directors includes compensation for the CEO who also serves as an Executive Officer.
3. Amounts are rounded to the nearest million yen. Therefore, the total amount stated in each column may not
correspond to the amount in the total compensation column.
4. Of the non-monetary compensation in the table, continuous service conditional stock-based compensation
includes Time-based Stock Options (TSOs), which are one-yen stock options, and stock-linked conditional
stock-based compensation includes Performance-based Stock Options (PSOs). The fair value that is
exercisable during the current consolidated fiscal year is calculated based on the closing stock price on the
vesting date and other factors. Performance Share Units (PSUs) and Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) introduced
in the current consolidated fiscal year are not included because there were no units that vested during the
- 71 -
current fiscal year. In addition, the amount to be charged to income for the current consolidated fiscal year is
326 million yen for internal Directors and 59 million yen for Outside Directors, which is applicable to stock
options and units that have been granted.
5. For Directors and Corporate Auditors who are non-residents in Japan, the currency of payment is converted
into Japanese yen at the average exchange rate during the current consolidated fiscal year (JPY108.97 = USD
1.00).
6. At the 16th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on March 29, 2018, that the maximum amount of
compensation for Directors was resolved to be 2 billion yen per year (of which the maximum amount for Outside
Directors was 400 million yen per year). At the conclusion of this Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders,
the Company had 5 Directors (including 2 Outside Directors).
7. At the 19th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on March 30, 2021, and the maximum amount of
stock-based compensation where shares are delivered after vesting for Directors was resolved within the
framework of the amount described in Note 6 above and the total number of shares of the Company to be
delivered by Directors was resolved within 2.7 million shares per year (of which, no more than 0.2 million shares
are for Outside Directors). At the conclusion of this Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders, there was 1
Director (Outside Directors are not eligible for grant) eligible for Performance Share Units (PSUs) and 6
Directors (including 5 Outside Directors) eligible for Restricted Stock Units (RSUs).
8. At the Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on February 24, 2010, the maximum amount of
compensation for Corporate Auditors was resolved to be within 12 million yen per month. At the conclusion of
this Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders, the number of Corporate Auditors was 4 (including 3

Executive Officers of the Company have the broadest job responsibilities and policy-making authorities in the
Company.
Executive Officers are responsible for maintaining our business performance and a highly ethical corporate
culture, as well as for ensuring thorough compliance.
Accordingly, the Company aims to ensure transparency in our disclosure regarding executive compensation for
not only our Directors, including the CEO, but also for our core members of the management team.
- 72 -
Therefore, the Company includes in our disclosure individual compensation for the CEO, Chief Financial Officer
(CFO), Chief Legal Officer (CLO), Executive Officers in charge of the Automotive Solution Business Unit, and the
IoT and Infrastructure Business Unit, respectively, as well as compensation for Directors with total compensation
of at least 100 million yen that is required to be disclosed by law,
(b) Details
(i) Compensation Philosophy and Elements
The basic philosophy regarding compensation for Executive Officers is as follows.
・Highly linked to company performance, and highly transparent and objective.
・ Improvement of corporate value and compensation must interlock to share awareness of profit with
shareholders.
・Contribute to ensuring and retaining global management team that satisfies accurate ability requirements to
realize corporate vision.
In addition, the current compensation mix consists of the following:
・Base salary as fixed compensation
・ Performance-linked compensation focused on achieving shorter-term financial and strategic objectives
(Short-Term Incentives)
・Stock-based compensation where shares are delivered after vesting as stock price-linked compensation to
motivate management to increase shareholder value (Long-Term Incentives)
The Company believes that our current program is consistent with practices in the global and Japanese
domestic markets, as well as the interests of our stakeholders. The ratio of each type of compensation in the total
compensation is set based on consideration of the appropriate ratio, according to market comparisons, global
trends, and roles and performance of each Executive Officer. In addition, in order to tie long-term performance to
our executive compensation and realize strong alignment between shareholders and management team, the
Company has been promoting a compensation strategy that emphasizes long-term incentives compared to many
Japanese companies, and the Company has set the ratio of stock-based compensation to total compensation as
a majority proportion of total compensation.
- 73 -
set at a level that invites and ensures retention of competent Executive Officers, and motivate them to drive
global business expansion.
This compensation will be adjusted annually in consideration of market salary increase rates, our
performance and individual performance.

weighted average of the SOX calculation rate of 25 in 100, the TOPIX calculation rate of 50 in
100, and the Renesas Peers calculation rate of 25 in 100 (hereinafter referred to as the “Base
Calculation Rate”) will be vested as the number of vested PSUs on the date specified by us
(Japan time) (as a general rule, the 3 year anniversary date from the grant date of the PSUs).
Method The number of shares in an amount equal to the number of vested PSUs will be issued to the
of grantee in an amount equal to the number of vested PSUs. However, if our TSR growth rate is
Determin 0% or less, the calculation rate is limited to 100%. Our TSR growth rate shall be determined by
ing the following formula, and the growth rate of TSR of SOX-constituent companies, TOPIX-
Issued constituent companies and Renesas Peers shall be determined by a method similar to our TSR
Shares growth rate.
[RSU]
Grantees are granted a number of units calculated according to the following formula:
Number of RSUs = the base amount of RSU compensation for the 3 years (however, for Outside Directors,
1 year) that our Board of Directors decided to grant to each grantee / the simple average of the closing price
of our shares on the Tokyo Stock Exchange during the 3 months immediately preceding the month of
resolution by our Board of Directors
As a general rule, one-third of the units vest each year after the grant date (however, for Outside Directors,
all of the units vest on 1 year after the grant date) and the Company will issue a number of shares equal to the
number of vested units.
- 76 -
(ii) Comparator Group (FY2021 and thereafter, as of the end of the current consolidated fiscal year)
The Compensation Committee reviewed comparable companies in compensation to better understand program
design and competitive compensation levels. Given that the Company is operating our business globally, the
Company selected the comparable companies not only in Japan, but also from the United States and Europe,
both of which are our primary business areas and where the global executive compensation programs are
functioning. The Company referred to the 3 key global regions with an appropriate balance, and set future
performance targets, and established a compensation program with the aim of promoting the achievement of
business and financial indicators both globally and regionally.
Comparator groups in compensation include high-tech companies headquartered in Japan, which are either or
both competitors in human resources acquisition or competitors in the same industry as viewed by investors. At
this stage, the correlation between the revenue level and the executive compensation level is not so strong in
Japan, so the Company has selected Japanese companies from a wide range of revenue levels. The disclosed
personal compensation data of comparable companies in compensation is supplemented by market
compensation data (Mercer LLC survey). For US and Europe, the Company selected semiconductor companies
considering revenue level and market capitalization.

operating income margin (Non-GAAP basis) of each business unit. Individual calculation methods are applied
to each business unit in order to take into account the characteristics of each business.
For Executive Officers in charge of other business units (Production & Technology Unit and Corporate),
provisional payments are calculated based on the weighted average of the payout rates for both business units
above.
This scheme is the same as the scheme for employees, and it is a mechanism for sharing incentives with
employees.

on the provisional STI payment determined by the scheme described above, our performance, various
requirements other than financial performance, and other factors for the fiscal year.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Reporting Entity
Renesas Electronics Corporation (hereafter “the Company”) is a public company established under the Companies Act
of Japan and domiciled in Japan. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and its
consolidated subsidiaries (hereafter “the Group”) are composed of the Company, its subsidiaries and interests of the
Group in its associates, with December 31, 2021 as the closing date. The Group engages in research, design,
development, manufacturing, sales and services related to various kinds of semiconductors as a manufacturer specializing
in semiconductors. For details of the Group’s major business, please refer to “Note 6. Business Segments.”
The consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 were approved on March 30, 2022 by
Hidetoshi Shibata, President and CEO, and Shuhei Shinkai, Executive Vice President, Member of the Board and CFO.
- 91 -
3. Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies of the Group are as follows and are applied to all the periods presented in the
consolidated financial statements.
B. Associates
Associates are entities over which the Group has a significant influence over the decisions on financial and operating
policies but does not have control. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method.
Investments in associates are initially recognized at cost. Ownership interests of the Group in profit or loss and other
comprehensive income of the associate from the date when the Group obtains significant influence until the date when
the Group loses significant influence are recognized as changes in the amount of investments in associates.
C. Foreign operations
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of a foreign operation are translated
into Japanese yen at the exchange rate as of the closing date of the consolidated financial statements, and profit or
loss and cash flows of the foreign operation are translated into Japanese yen at the exchange rate on the date of the
transaction or the average exchange rate for the period that is approximate to the exchange rate on the date of the
transaction. Exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income, and the cumulative amount thereof
is recognized in other components of equity.
On disposal of the entire ownership interest in a foreign operation or part of the interest that results in a loss of
control or significant influence, the exchange differences of the foreign operation that were recognized in other
comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassified from equity to profit or loss when the related gains
or losses on disposal are recognized.
- 92 -
(4) Financial instruments
A. Financial assets other than derivatives
(a) Initial recognition and measurement
Trade and other receivables are initially recognized at their transaction price on that date, and all other financial
assets are initially recognized on the date of the transaction when the Company becomes the contracting party to
the financial assets.
At the time of initial recognition, financial assets are classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost or
financial assets measured at fair value.
(i) Financial assets measured at amortized cost
Financial assets are classified as financial assets measured at amortized cost if both of the following conditions
are met or otherwise classified as financial assets measured at fair value.
• Assets are held within a business model that aims to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows.
• The contract terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments
of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
(ii) Financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
• Debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
If both of the following conditions are met, financial assets are classified as debt instruments measured at fair
value through other comprehensive income.
- Assets are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both the collection and sale of
contractual cash flows.
- The contract terms of the financial assets give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments
of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
• Equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income
Of financial assets measured at amortized cost, or financial assets other than debt instruments measured at
fair value through other comprehensive income, when an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition
is made, subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income and such equity
instruments are classified as financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.
(iii) Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets that do not meet the criteria for either (i) or (ii) above are classified into financial assets
measured at fair value through profit or loss.
Financial assets are recognized initially at fair value plus, in the case of financial assets not recorded at fair value
through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial assets.
Transaction costs for financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss are recognized in profit or loss.
- 93 -
about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions
Changes in the amount of the measurement are recognized in profit or loss.
(d) Derecognition
The Group derecognizes financial assets if the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets
expire, or if substantially all risks and rewards associated with ownership of the financial assets are transferred as
a result of assigning the contractual right to receive cash flows from the financial assets.
(c) Derecognition
The Group derecognizes financial liabilities when they are extinguished, for example when then obligations
specified in the contract are discharged, cancelled or expired.
(6) Inventories
The acquisition cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and all other costs incurred
in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
After the initial recognition, inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, but if cost exceeds
net realizable value, the inventories are written down to net realizable value. The net realizable value is calculated by
deducting the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale from the estimated
selling price in the ordinary course of business.
- 94 -
The cost is also calculated using the following methods:
Merchandise and finished goods
Custom-made products: Specific identification method
Mass products: Average method
Work in progress
Custom-made products: Specific identification method
Mass products: Average method
Raw materials and supplies: Mainly average method
B. Intangible assets
The cost model is used for intangible assets, and they are presented at cost less any accumulated amortization
and accumulated impairment losses.
(a) Intangible assets acquired separately
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured at cost at the time of initial recognition.
- 95 -
requirements for capitalization above is recognized in profit or loss at the time of occurrence.
Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful life using the straight-
line method, and an impairment test is performed if any indications of impairment exist. For intangible assets with
finite useful lives, their useful lives and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each fiscal year. A change in
the useful life or the amortization method is applied prospectively as a change in accounting estimate.
Commercial software products are mainly amortized using a method based on the expected sales volume over the
expected sales period (3 years or less), and software for internal use is mainly amortized using the straight-line
method based on the expected available period (5 years) for internal use. Technical assets are amortized using the
straight-line method based on the available period (12 years or less) in business activities. Customer relationships
are mainly amortized using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful life (14 years or less).
Intangible assets with indefinite useful life and intangible assets that are not yet available for use are not amortized,
and an impairment test is performed at a certain time each fiscal year or whenever any indication of impairment exists.
(9) Leases
A. Overall
(a) Identification of a lease
At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or
contains, a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for
consideration. The Group reviews the following to assess whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of
an identified asset.
B. Leases as Lessee
(a) Separable components of a contract
The Group allocates the consideration in contract for a building lease to lease and non-lease components on the
basis of the relative stand-alone price of each lease component. In addition, the Group elects not to separate non-
lease components from lease components, and instead accounts for each lease component and any associated
non-lease components as a single lease component for the lease other than a building lease.
- 96 -
(d) Short-term leases within 12 months and leases of low-value assets
The Group elects not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases within 12 months
and leases of low-value assets including IT equipment and recognizes these lease payments as expenses over the
lease term using the straight-line method.
(11) Provisions
The Group recognizes a provision if the Group has assumed a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past
event, if it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and if a reliable
estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
If the time value of the money of the provision is significant, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to the
present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the time value of the money and risks specific to the liability.
The unwinding of the discount amount due to the passage of time are recognized as a finance cost.
(12) Levies
For levies that are an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits required by the government to the Group
in accordance with laws and regulations, an expected payment is recognized as a liability when the obligation event
that triggers the payment of levies prescribed by laws and regulations occurs.
B. Post-employment benefits
For post-employment benefit plans, the Group has adopted defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans.
(a) Defined contribution plans
Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as an expense when they are incurred unless they
are included in inventories or property, plant and equipment. If contributions already paid exceed contributions due
for services provided before the end of the fiscal year, the Group recognizes the excess as an asset to the extent
to which the prepayment becomes the reduction of future payments or a future refund.
- 97 -
Actuarial gains or losses and fluctuations in the return on the plan assets excluding the portion included in the
net interest expense and change in the impact of the asset ceiling are recognized in other comprehensive income
as “Remeasurements of defined benefit plans” in the corresponding period and are immediately transferred from
other components of equity to retained earnings. Past service costs are recognized in profit or loss when the plan
is revised or curtailed, or when related restructuring costs or termination benefits are recognized, whichever is
earlier.
- 98 -
payment is established.
Finance costs consist of interest expenses for corporate bonds, borrowings and interest expenses for lease liabilities,
foreign exchange loss, losses on sales of financial assets, losses from hedging financial instruments that are
recognized in profit or loss, and the transfer of amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income.
Acquisitions or construction of qualifying assets, or borrowing costs not directly attributable to the production, are
recognized at the time of occurrence using the effective interest method. Lease payments are allocated to finance
costs and the repayment portion of the liability balance, and finance costs are allocated over the lease term so as to
produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
A. Current taxes
Current taxes are measured at the amount paid to tax authorities or the amount expected to be refunded from tax
authorities. The tax rates and the tax law used for the calculation of the tax amount are those established or
substantively established by the closing date.
B. Deferred taxes
Deferred taxes are calculated based on temporary differences between the tax base amount and the carrying
amount for accounting purposes of assets and liabilities at the end of the fiscal year. Deferred tax assets are
recognized for deductible temporary differences, unused tax credits and unused tax losses are expected to arise to
the extent to which it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized, and deferred
tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences, in principle.
Neither a deferred tax asset nor a deferred tax liability is recognized for the following temporary differences:
• Temporary difference arising from the initial recognition of goodwill
• Temporary difference arising from the initial recognition of an asset and a liability arising from a transaction
(excluding business combination transactions) that does not have an impact on accounting profits and taxable
profits
• A case where the timing for eliminating a taxable temporary difference for an investment in a subsidiary or an
associate and an interest in the arrangement of joint control can be controlled and where it is probable that the
difference will not be eliminated in the foreseeable future
• A case where it is improbable that a deductible temporary difference for an investment in a subsidiary or an
associate and an interest in the arrangement of joint control will be eliminated in the foreseeable future, or a case
where it is improbable that a taxable profit that will be available for the temporary difference will be earned
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at a tax rate (and based on tax law) that is expected to be applied
in the period when assets are realized or liabilities are settled based on the statutory tax rate (and based on tax law)
that is established or substantively established by the closing date.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset if the Group has the legally enforceable right to offset
current tax assets and current tax liabilities, and if any of the following cases applies:
• Income tax expense is imposed on the same taxable entity by the same tax authority
• Although income tax expense is imposed on different taxable entities, these taxable entities intend to settle
current tax assets and current tax liabilities on a net basis or intend to settle current tax liabilities at the same
time as realizing current tax assets.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each fiscal year. If it becomes improbable that
taxable profits sufficient to realize part or all of the benefits of deferred tax assets will be earned, the carrying amount
of deferred tax assets is reduced to that extent. In addition, the amount of the write-down is reversed to the extent to
which it becomes probable that sufficient taxable profits will be earned.
The Group recognizes tax assets and liabilities at a reasonably estimated amount where there is an uncertain tax
position.
- 99 -
B. Discontinued operations
A component of an entity that has either been disposed of or is classified as held for sale is recognized as a
discontinued operation if any of the following applies:
• A separate major line of business or geographical area of operations;
• Part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of
operations; or
• A subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.
If an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and the
consolidated statement of comprehensive income for a comparative period are restated on the assumption that the
operation was discontinued on the commencement date of the comparative period.
- 100 -
4. Significant Accounting Estimates and Judgments
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management of the Group makes judgments, accounting estimates
and assumptions that could have an impact on the application of accounting policies and the reporting amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on the best judgment of management,
taking into account various factors that are deemed reasonable on the closing date in light of past experience and available
information. However, figures based on these estimates and assumptions may differ from the actual results due to their
nature.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed continuously. The impact of the review of these estimates is
recognized in the period when the estimates are revised and future periods.
The Group reflects the impact of COVID-19 to estimates and assumptions (impairment test of goodwill and collectability
of deferred tax assets, etc.), to a reasonable extent based on available information.
These estimates and assumptions may be affected depending on the future situations of the spread of COVID-19.
Estimates and assumptions that could have a significant impact to the consolidated financial statements are as follows.
(3) Provisions
The Group records multiple provisions in the consolidated statement of financial position, including the provision for
product warranties and asset retirement obligations, among others.
These provisions are recorded based on the best estimate of expenditure required for the settlement of the
obligations, considering risks and uncertainties related to the obligations on the closing date.
The amount of expenditure required for the settlement of the obligations is calculated by comprehensively
considering results that could arise in the future, but it could be affected by the occurrence of unforeseeable events
and changes in the situation. If the actual amount of expenditure differs from the estimate, it could have a significant
impact on amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements of subsequent periods.
The nature and amounts of provisions are stated in “Note 21. Provisions.”
(5) Inventories
Inventories are measured at cost, but if the net realizable value at the end of the fiscal year falls below the acquisition
cost, inventories are measured at the net realizable value, and the difference from the acquisition cost is recognized
in the cost of sales, in principle. For slow moving inventory that is outside of the operating cycle process, the net
realizable value is calculated reflecting the future demand and market trends. If the net realizable value declines
significantly due to the greater-than-expected deterioration of the market environment, a loss could arise.
- 101 -
(6) Measurement method of the fair value of financial instruments
When the Group evaluates the fair value of certain financial instruments, the Group uses valuation techniques that
use inputs that are not observable in the market. These unobservable inputs could be affected by fluctuations in
uncertain future economic conditions, and if a revision becomes necessary, it could have a significant impact on the
consolidated financial statements in subsequent periods.
The details and amounts of the fair value of financial instruments are stated in “Note 3. Significant Accounting
Policies, (4) Financial instruments” and “Note 33. Financial Instruments.”
- 102 -
5. Standards and Interpretations Not Yet Adopted
Of the new standards and interpretations that were newly issued or revised as of the date of the approval of the
consolidated financial statements, the major standards and interpretations that the Group has not yet adopted as of
December 31, 2021 are as follows:
- 103 -
6. Business Segments
(1) Overview of reportable segments
The Group’s reportable segments are components of the Group for which separate financial information is available

7. Business Combinations
(The year ended December 31, 2021)
(i) Scales Renesas’ IoT sector capabilities with Dialog’s low-power technologies
Dialog has a differentiated portfolio of low-power mixed-signal products, decades of experience in developing
custom and configurable solutions for the world’s largest customers and expertise in low-power connectivity that are
highly complementary to Renesas. The Dialog acquisition of these low-power technologies enhances Renesas’
product portfolio and expands horizons in addressing high-growth markets in the IoT field.
4) Acquisition Method
Renesas implemented a scheme of arrangement pursuant to UK law. The scheme of arrangement is a method of
acquisition whereby with the agreement of Dialog, the Dialog acquisition can be executed by obtaining approvals
from Dialog shareholders and the Court.
Expenses related to the acquisition were 4,589 million yen, which were recorded in “Selling, general and
administrative expenses” for the year ended December 31, 2021. Details of the consideration for acquisition in restricted
stock units are described in “Note 32. Share-based Payments.”

(Note) 1. As of December 31, 2021, the acquisition was accounted for using provisional amounts determined based on
reasonable information currently available, and since the recognition and fair value measurement of the
identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date have not been finalized, the purchase
price allocation is still preliminary. Currently the valuation of property, plant and equipment and additional
recognition of intangible assets, among other assets and liabilities, have not been completed, except for certain
inventories for which the valuation was able to be completed. As a result, goodwill was provisionally recognized
as the total amount of the excess of the consideration transferred over the net amount of the assets acquired
and liabilities assumed. The identifiable intangible assets are tentatively recorded at the book value as carried
by Dialog.
2. The total contract amount is the same as the fair value, and there are no receivables that are expected to be
unrecoverable.
3. The Company has entered into currency options and forward exchange contracts to hedge the foreign exchange
risk against EUR-denominated acquisition consideration payments and adopted hedge accounting. The hedging
instruments were settled in cash at the fair value on the acquisition date. The basis adjustment is the amount of
change in the fair value of the hedging instruments recorded in other comprehensive income on the acquisition
date and were added to the amount of goodwill.
4. Goodwill reflects future excess earning power expected from synergies between the Company and Dialog. No
amount of goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

(unaudited information)
Assuming that the date of the acquisition of Dialog was at the beginning of the fiscal year, revenue and profit for the
year ended December 31, 2021 would be 1,093,258 million yen and 156,593 million yen, respectively. As of December
31, 2021, the recognition and fair value measurement of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the
acquisition date have not been finalized. As a result, the adjustments such as amortization of intangible assets are not
reflected in the aforementioned revenue and profit figures. The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of
events that may happen in the future.
In addition, in order to prepare this information, Dialog's past financial information has been adjusted for significant
differences to comply with the Company's accounting policies.
4) Acquisition Method
For the purpose of the Celeno Acquisition, Renesas established a wholly-owned subsidiary (“Acquisition
Subsidiary”) in Delaware, the United States of America which merged with Celeno in a reverse triangular merger.
Celeno was the surviving company following the merger. The Company paid cash to Celeno's shareholders as
consideration for the merger. The shares of the Acquisition Subsidiary owned by Renesas were converted into
outstanding shares in Celeno, making Celeno a wholly-owned subsidiary of Renesas.

Contingent consideration includes $45 million which will be paid when certain conditions related to Celeno’s future
product development and mass production progress are met.
The fair value of the contingent consideration is calculated as the present value of the amount that may be paid to
Celeno, with consideration of the probability of occurrence.
The level of the fair value hierarchy for the contingent consideration is level 3. Since the fluctuation after the acquisition
date of the contingent consideration classified in Level 3 is negligible, the reconciliation table is not presented. Of the
amount of change in fair value related to contingent consideration, the portion based on fluctuations in the time value
of money is recorded in "financial expenses", and the portion based on fluctuations other than the time value of money
is recorded in "other income" or "other expenses".

15. Impairment of Non-financial Assets
The Group recorded impairment losses for the assets below. Impairment losses are included in “Other expenses” in the
consolidated statement of profit or loss.
The components of assets for which the impairment losses are recorded are as follows.
(Idle assets)
For the Automotive and Industrial/Infrastructure/IoT business, the Group performs impairment tests as independent
cash-generation units, writes down the carrying amount of idle assets that are unlikely to be used to their recoverable
amount, and recorded impairment losses of 1,902 million yen.
The recoverable amount is measured at the fair value after deducting disposal costs. The fair value after deducting
disposal costs is set at zero because it is difficult to sell these assets, and the hierarchy level of the fair value is 3.
(Idle assets)
For the Automotive and Industrial/Infrastructure/IoT business, the Group performs impairment tests as independent
cash-generation units, writes down the carrying amount of idle assets that are unlikely to be used to their recoverable
amount, and recorded impairment losses of 53 million yen.
The recoverable amount is measured at the fair value after deducting disposal costs. The fair value after deducting
disposal costs is set at zero because it is difficult to sell these assets, and the hierarchy level of the fair value is 3.
- 121 -
(2) Impairment test of goodwill and intangible assets not yet available for use
The Group performs impairment tests for cash-generating units to which goodwill and intangible assets not yet
available for use are allocated at a certain time each fiscal year and whenever there is any indication of impairment.
Goodwill recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position was recognized when the Company merged
with former Intersil for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 and former IDT for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2019 and it is allocated to the cash-generating units of the Group expected to provide future excess earning power
arising from synergies of these business combinations.
In the impairment test, goodwill and intangible assets not yet available for use that were allocated to the cash-
generating units of the Group are as follows.
The recoverable amount of the cash-generating units is measured at the value in use. The value in use is calculated
by discounting the cash flows, which is estimated based on the five-year business plan approved by management
and the estimated permanent growth rate for the period thereafter, to the present value using the pre-tax discount
rate. Significant assumptions which have an impact to the calculation of the value in use include gross margin in the
business plan, permanent growth rate, discount rate and others. These assumptions are determined in the
consideration of past experiences and external information.
Additionally, the Group includes the estimated impact of COVID-19 to estimates and assumptions which are based
on information available and management believes to be reasonable at the moment.
For cash flows in a period beyond the target period of the future business plan approved by management, the value
in use is calculated using the permanent growth rate as 1.7% the current fiscal year (2.0% in the prior fiscal year).
The approved permanent growth rate is determined based on the estimated inflation rate of the market to which the
cash-generating units belong.
The discount rates are the weighted average capital cost before tax. The discount rates used for the calculation of
the value in use are 10.1% in the Automotive Business in the current fiscal year (11.7% in the prior fiscal year) and
10.8% in the Industrial/Infrastructure/IoT Business in the current fiscal year (11.2% in the prior fiscal year).
Because the recoverable amount of cash-generating units sufficiently exceeds the carrying amount in the current
fiscal year, management believes that it is unlikely that the recoverable amount of the cash-generating units will be
lower than the carrying amount even if the major assumptions (Gross margin/ Permanent growth rate/ Discount rate
before tax) used in the impairment test are changed in a reasonable range.
The following table shows the range of reasonably expected fluctuation of the major assumptions (Gross margin/
Permanent growth rate/ Discount rate before tax) used in the impairment test.
Major assumptions Cash-generating units Prior fiscal year Current fiscal year
Automotive 35~45% 35~45%
Gross margin
Industrial/ Infrastructure/IoT 50~60% 50~60%
Automotive
Permanent growth rate 1.5~2.5% 1.2~2.2%
Industrial/ Infrastructure/IoT
Discount rate before Automotive 10.7~12.7% 8.1~12.1%
tax Industrial/ Infrastructure/IoT 10.2~12.2% 9.8~11.8%
The Group recognized no impairment losses during the current year and the prior year since the value in use of
the cash generating units exceeded the carrying amount as a result of the impairment test.

22. Employee Benefits
The Group adopts post-employment benefit plans such as a defined benefit plan and a defined contribution plan, except
for some overseas consolidated subsidiaries.
(1) Defined benefit plans
A. Characteristics of defined benefit plans and related risks
The characteristics of defined benefit plans and related risks are as follows.
(a) Characteristics of defined benefit plans
The defined benefit plans of the Company and its subsidiaries in the Group include (i) a severance indemnity
plan and (ii) a defined benefit corporate pension plan. The Group may also provide extra retirement payments upon
the retirement of employees.
(i) The severance indemnity plan is an unfunded plan to make a lump-sum payment only with an internal reserve
without making an external reserve for the obligations of the retirement benefit plans. As the lump-sum payment
is paid in an amount based on salaries and number of service years in accordance with the retirement allowance
regulations including the rules of employment of each company.
(ii) The defined benefit corporate pension plan is a defined benefit pension and a funded plan established under
the Defined Benefit Corporate Pension Act (enforced in April 2002). It is a fund-type corporate pension, and a
lump-sum payment or an annuity is paid from the fund based on salaries and number of service years. In the
defined benefit corporate pension plan, administrators of the corporate pension, such as the executive directors
of the employer and the fund, abide by laws, regulations and asset management and investment contracts, etc.,
and their standards of practice such as the prohibition of acts involving conflicts of interest against the
participants in the plan have been clearly defined.
In the defined benefit corporate pension plan, the amount of benefits is calculated based on the cumulative
number of points granted to employees according to their job classification. The Company and its subsidiaries
in Japan adopt a cash balance pension plan for the defined benefit corporate pension plan. Some of the
Company's overseas subsidiaries adopt externally funded pension plans such as trust funds for the defined
benefit corporate pension plan. Under those pension plans, each participant has an account in which a certain
amount calculated by the revaluation rate that is determined based on the current base salary, the job
classification and the market interest rate is accumulated.
(b) Risks to which an entity is exposed by the plan.
The Group is exposed to actuarial risks such as price fluctuation risk by plan assets and interest rate risk by
present value of obligations of the defined benefit plans.
As of December 31, 2020, the present value of obligations of the funded defined benefit plans (with and without plan
assets) was 124,135 million yen for domestic plans and 28,972 million yen for overseas plans. And the fair value of plan
assets was (125,769) million yen for domestic plans and (20,093) million yen for overseas plans.
As of December 31, 2021, the present value of obligations of the funded defined benefit plans (with and without plan
assets) was 116,990 million yen for domestic plans and 30,389 million yen for overseas plans. And the fair value of plan
assets was (129,925) million yen for domestic plans and (22,457) million yen for overseas plans.

H. Sensitivity analysis
In the calculation of the defined benefit obligation in the sensitivity analysis, the same method as the calculation
method for the defined benefit obligation recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position is used.
The sensitivity analysis is made based on changes in assumptions that can be reasonably presumed at the end of
the reporting period. In addition, although the sensitivity analysis assumes that all actuarial assumptions other than
those that are subject to the sensitivity analysis remain constant, changes in those other actuarial assumptions could
have an impact in reality.
The impact of a 0.5% change in actuarial assumptions on the defined benefit obligation is as follows.
(In millions of yen)
As of December 31, As of December 31,
2020 2021
Discount rate 0.5% increase (9,028) (7,323)

24. Revenue
(1) Disaggregation of revenue
Disaggregation of revenue recognized from contracts with customers are stated in “Note 6. Business Segments, (2)
Information on reportable segments and (4) Information on regions and countries.” Also, all of the revenue arises from
contracts with customers.
The Group engages in research, design, development, manufacturing, sales and services related to various kinds of
semiconductors as a manufacturer specializing in semiconductors, and the revenue is mainly due to sales of
semiconductor products.
Regarding the sales of these products, the Group recognizes revenue when the customer obtains control over the
product which is at the time of delivery of a product because legal title of the product, physical possession of the asset,
the significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the customer, and the customer has an obligation to
pay for the products at the time of delivery of the product.
Revenue is measured at the amount of promised consideration in contracts with customers.
With regard to sales contract including variable consideration such as rebate and discounts, the transaction price is
estimated and determined using the most-likely-amount method based largely on historical data, considering variable
prices within a range that will not result in significant deviation between estimate and historical data.
Consideration under sales contracts is recovered mainly within one year from satisfaction of a performance obligation
and includes no significant financing components.
(4) Assets recognized from the cost to obtain or fulfill contracts with customers
There are no assets recognized from the cost to obtain or fulfill contracts with customers.

exercise period.
3. The expected dividend is calculated based on the actual annual dividend for the year.
4. The risk-free interest rate is the yield on Japanese government bonds for the period that corresponds to the
remaining life of the option.
5. For the stock options whose vesting condition is the stock price requirement, the actual rates of granted stocks
are reflected on the fair value based on the results of comparing the fluctuation rate of the Company’s stock
with that of stock indexes over a certain period.

33. Financial Instruments
(1) Capital management
The Group aims to achieve sustainable growth and maximize its corporate value. Investments of surplus funds are
limited to short-term deposits and financial assets with a high level of safety. Regarding financing sources, the Group
mainly uses borrowings from banks. The Group mainly uses derivative financial instruments to manage fluctuations in
foreign currency exchange rates, and the Group’s policies prohibit holding or issuing derivative financial instruments for
speculative transactions. Items subject to management are net interest-bearing liabilities obtained by deducting cash
and cash equivalents from interest-bearing liabilities and equity. Their balances and the major indicators that the Group
uses for its capital management are as follows.
(In millions of yen)
As of December 31, 2020 As of December 31, 2021
A. Credit risk
(a) Credit risk management
Notes and trade receivables are exposed to the credit risk of customers. Conforming to the internal rules for the
management of receivables, the Group regularly monitors major customers’ credit and manages the due dates of
collection and the balance for each customer. Other receivables are exposed to the credit risk of customers, but
most of them are settled in the short term. Short-term investments are financial assets invested on a short-time basis,
and the Group transacts with highly creditworthy financial institutions. Trade receivables are regarded as non-
performing if all or part of them cannot be collected or if collection is deemed extremely difficult. The Group does not
have any exposure to the significant credit risk of certain customers, and there is no excessive concentration of
credit risk that requires special management.
The largest exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period is the carrying amount of financial assets
after impairment, but there is no historical experience of recognizing a significant credit loss in previous years.
Regarding debt guarantees, the balance of debt guarantees presented in “Note 36. Commitments and Contingent
Liabilities” is the largest exposure of the Group to credit risk.

- 158 -
For trade receivables, the Group’s major counterparties consist of specific distributors with high credit ratings and there is
no material balance of loss allowance based on expected loss rate. For financial instruments other than trade receivables,
there is no credit risk that is concentrated around credit ratings.
B. Liquidity risk
The Group is exposed to liquidity risk whereby the performance of payment obligations could become difficult. To
limit its exposure to liquidity risk, however, the Group works to maintain fund management through the optimization
of capital efficiency through the efficient management of working capital and the central management of funds by the
Company. The Group also manages the liquidity risk by appropriately maintaining liquidity on hand through the timely
preparation and updating of the financing plan and taking the external financial environment into account.
- 159 -
C. Market risk
(a) Foreign currency exchange risk
(i) Foreign currency exchange risk management
Foreign currency receivables and obligations arising from the global business development of the Group are

(4) Derivative transactions and hedging activities
A. Overview of hedges
The Group uses forward exchange contracts, currency options and currency swaps for the purpose of hedging
transactions against the risk of foreign exchange rate fluctuations in foreign currency cash flows. Hedge accounting
is applied to those transactions that meet the requirements for hedge accounting. Even if the requirements for hedge
accounting are not met, the Group uses derivative transactions if they are economically reasonable. Changes in the
fair value of the derivative transactions are recognized in profit or loss. The Group has also set a policy of not engaging
in derivative transactions for speculative purposes.
- 164 -
D. Impact of the application of hedge accounting on the consolidated statement of profit and loss and the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income
The impact of hedging instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges on the consolidated statement of profit
and loss and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income is as follows.

significant adverse effects by the outcome.

reasonable estimation. Additionally, the Group records loss on litigation for cases other than below, to prepare for
payments regarding lawsuits against other companies and compensation for damages. In accordance with IAS 37
