Asuene Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Founder & CEO: Kohei Nishiwada), which provides the 'ASUENE' CO2 emissions visualization, reduction, and reporting cloud service, and the 'ASUENE ESG' ESG evaluation cloud service, has received the 'SOC 1 Type 2 Report' based on the framework for evaluating internal controls of service organizations.

SOC 1 is a reporting system in which a third party evaluates the impact of a service organization's internal controls on the user organization's internal controls related to financial reporting. The SOC 1 Type 2 report received this time evaluates not only the design of controls at a specific point in time but also the operational status of controls over a fixed period.

About SOC 1 Type 2

'SOC 1 (System and Organization Controls 1)' is a reporting system where a third party evaluates the impact of a service organization's internal controls on the user organization's financial reporting internal controls.

There are two types of 'SOC 1' reports: 'Type 1,' which evaluates the design of controls at a specific point in time, and 'Type 2,' which evaluates the operational status of controls over a period of time. The 'SOC 1 Type 2 Report' received this time evaluates the operational status of controls during the target period.

<Scope of the Report> - Target Services: 'ASUENE', 'ASUENE ESG' (Scope covering parts of the system related to the user organization's financial reporting) - Target Period: January 1, 2025 – December 31, 2025 - Report Issue Date: March 27, 2026

Background of Receiving the 'SOC 1 Type 2 Report'

Our services have been introduced to over 30,000 companies in total and are widely used to promote decarbonization and ESG management both domestically and internationally. Especially for listed companies and companies expanding globally, there is an increasing demand for third-party evaluations of how the cloud services they use affect their internal controls related to financial reporting.

Against this background, following the receipt of the 'SOC 1 Type 1 Report' in December 2024, we have now newly received the 'SOC 1 Type 2 Report.' We will continue to work on further strengthening internal controls and advancing our product foundation to provide higher reliability and value as a service that supports corporate sustainability management.
