Investor Meeting Presentation for FY 3/2012 held on May 10, 2012

In the electronic devices and components business segment, net sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 were 37.9 billion yen, down 6.5% from the previous fiscal year. A loss of 1.0 billion yen put our operating income in the red while the operating margin declined by 12.8 percentage points to reach minus 2.5%.
Although a large order for our LED backlights led us to increase production capacity with the opening of the new Suzhou plant last April, sales of LED backlights did not increase as expected. Operating income also dipped into the red as supply chain disruptions due to the earthquake and flooding prevented us from procuring needed materials and a problem experienced by a customer forced us to delay the shipment of LED backlights for a tablet PC. Measuring component sales and profits also decreased since production at Japanese automobile manufacturers was affected by these natural disasters. Despite all these obstacles we were able to maintain a healthy operating margin.
We forecast significantly higher sales and profitability for LED backlights as well as the entire business segment for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2013. Shipments of our LED backlights for a tablet PC have begun this April and we will begin shipping another large order for smartphones this month.
