SUZUKI MOTOR CORPORATION 47
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Suzuki Motor Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Suzuki Motor Corporation and its
subsidiaries as of March 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of income,
changes in net assets, and cash flows for the years then ended, all expressed in Japanese Yen. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Japan. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the consolidated financial position of Suzuki Motor Corporation and its subsidiaries as of March
31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then
ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan.
As discussed in Note 16 (b), the Company described the fact that General Motors Corporation (GM), a
trading partner of the Company, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy-court protection of the U.S. Bankruptcy
Code on June 1, 2009 (local time in the USA), and listed an outline of GM, type and amount of receivables
owed by GM and its affiliated companies and percentage to consolidated net assets.
The amounts expressed in U.S. dollars, which are provided solely for the convenience of the reader,
have been translated on the basis set forth in Note 1 to the accompanying consolidated financial
statements.
