REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors of
Suzuki Motor Corporation
We have examined the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Suzuki Motor Corporation and its
consolidated subsidiaries as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, the related consolidated statements of income, retained
earnings and cash flows for the years then ended, all expressed in Japanese yen. Our examinations were made in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Japan and, accordingly, included such tests of the
accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
In our opinion, based upon our examinations and the reports of other auditors, the aforementioned consolidated
financial statements, expressed in yen, present fairly the financial position of Suzuki Motor Corporation and its
consolidated subsidiaries as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, the results of their operations for the years then ended,
and their cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2001, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles in Japan applied on a consistent basis during the periods.
As described in Notes 2, effective for the year ended March 31, 2001, Suzuki Motor Corporation and its
subsidiaries have adopted the new Japanese accounting standards for financial instruments, retirement benefits,
and foreign currency translation.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2001 have been
translated into United States dollars solely for the convenience of readers. We have reviewed the translation and,
in our opinion, the consolidated financial statements expressed in Japanese yen have been properly translated into
United States dollars on the basis set forth in Note 1. to the consolidated financial statements.
