Fujitsu is working to make the ubiquitous networked world a reality. We are building an IT
infrastructure that offers 24/7 failsafe availability and that can seamlessly connect disparate systems,
enabling information to be smoothly exchanged and put to use. We are also using this IT
infrastructure to deliver enterprise solutions as well as services in the fields of healthcare,
educational and government.
Fujitsu has three main business areas: IT services; platforms, comprised mainly of hardware
products; and electronic devices, such as semiconductors. Our goal is not simply to provide stand-
alone products or services. Our unique value is in providing comprehensive IT solutions
comprising high-performance, high-quality products and services that incorporate leading-edge
electronic device technologies. In helping a vast number of customers make their businesses more
efficient through the deployment of information technology, we have accumulated a sophisticated
understanding of business needs in a wide array of industries and organizations. This is a unique
strength, and we are committed to leveraging it to enhance our customers’ competitiveness and
build an infrastructure for a more prosperous society.
Focusing on these efforts, we are working to strengthen our financial condition and
profitability. As a trusted partner helping our customers use IT to manage their businesses, we also
aim to stay a step ahead in the continuously evolving IT industry by constantly improving our own
ways of doing business. We understand that providing highly reliable products and services is our
first priority, and we will continue to look for ways to improve quality in every aspect of our
operations. In addition, we are seeking to enhance our overall approach to risk management by
assessing and finding ways to mitigate the risks we face.
At Fujitsu, we approach corporate responsibility from an environmental standpoint, an
economic standpoint, and from the standpoint of the communities we serve. We are taking a
balanced approach to business that will contribute to the sustainable growth of society.
This year, we have made the difficult decision not to distribute a dividend. We ask for the
understanding of our shareholders and apologize for falling short of expectations. We will continue
to implement operational reforms to generate stronger earnings and put Fujitsu back on a firm
foundation of profitability. We thank you for your continued support.
