(Consolidated statements of income)
Previously, freight cost for shipping to the customers
was recognized as “Cost of sales” by some overseas
subsidiaries, however it has been recognized as “Sell-
ing, general and administrative expenses” in the year
ended March 31, 2013.
Due to the acceleration of overseas expansion, inte-
grated decision making and management at the
global level, this change has been made to standard-
ize the scope of cost of sales amount of the Company
and its subsidiaries, and to pursue performance man-
agement more precisely.
As a result, ¥145,057 thousand which was included in
“Cost of sales” was reclassified to “Selling, general
and administrative expenses” in the consolidated
statements of income for the year ended March 31,
2012.

cies are included in the consolidated statements of

sheets as a separate component of net assets.

sumption tax paid by the Companies on their pur-

3. Changes in accounting policies:
Change in accounting principles and policies for the
year ended March 31, 2013 is as follows.
(Changes in accounting policy which are difficult to be
distinguished from changes in accounting estimates)
Changes in depreciation method:
The Company has changed the method of deprecia-
tion of property, plant and equipment to the straight-
line method from declining-balance method
(depreciation of buildings, except for equipment
attached to buildings, acquired by the Company after
April 1, 1998 was computed using the straight-line
method of depreciation) from the beginning of fiscal
year ended March 31, 2013. This change was made
due to the completion of transformation to a company
without fabrication facilities including its systems, the
Company's main functions have shifted from manu-
facturing to group management, and to reflect the fact
a large portion of property, plant and equipment have
been stably utilized. In addition, we have considered
the international harmonization of accounting treat-
ment and standardization of group accounting
policies, and concluded that the straight-line method,
which equalizes the periodic recognition of deprecia-
tion, more appropriately reflected the economic reality
of use of the assets over their life.
As a result, compared with the previous method, in
consolidated statements of income for the year ended
March 31, 2013, operating income, ordinary income
and income before income taxes increased by
¥288,576 thousand ($3,068 thousand), respectively.
4. New accounting standards and guidance
issued but not yet applied:
The new accounting standards and guidance issued
but which the Company has not yet applied as of
March 31, 2013 is as follows.
Accounting Standards for Retirement Benefits”
(Accounting Standards Board of Japan Statement No.
26 issued on May 17, 2012) and “Guidance on Ac-
counting Standards for Retirement Benefits”
(Accounting Standards Board of Japan Guidance No.
25 issued on May 17, 2012)
1) Outline
The accounting standard and guidance were
amended such that actuarial gains and losses and
past service cost would be recognized within the Net
assets section in consolidated balance sheets after
adjusting for the tax effect, and the difference
between the retirement benefit obligation and plan
assets would be recognized as a liability or asset. Ad-
ditional changes from the new accounting standard
were the allowance of the benefit method basis in
addition the straight-line in the calculation of the peri-
odic benefit expense and the revision of the calcula-
tion method of the discount rate.
2) Scheduled date of application
The standard and the guidance will be applied from
the ends of fiscal year ending March 31, 2014. How-
ever, the amendments relating to determination of the
retirement benefit obligation and service cost will be
applied from beginning of the fiscal year beginning
April 1, 2014.
3) Impact on application of the accounting standard
and guidance
The Company is currently evaluating the potential
impact of this guidance on the consolidated financial
statements.

March 31, 2013 is as follows.
