In particular, with efforts to heighten marketing power and brand value, we will be presenting both high value-added
vehicles and strategically targeted designs in domestic and global markets. We will also transparently pursue
activities to improve/reduce costs and gain cost competitiveness while, at the same time, maintaining our high
quality.
Aside from the construction of the Czech Republic plant to establish a center of production in the heart of Europe,
we are also planning to start test production upon the completion of the second plants in India and China this
October and next year, respectively.
Dear respectful shareholders, for many years HMC has overcome numerous critical and decisive moments with the
encouragement of our shareholders emboldened with the diligence and commitment of our employees, working day
and night. On each occasion we have sought always to realize our potential and make great strides forward to the
next challenge. Though management environments may be disadvantageous for us this year, we are sure to achieve
our objectives once again for 2007, with your sincere acknowledgement and faith.
By pursuing ‘customer-first management’ and ‘global management stabilization’ for the year 2007, everyone
working and assisting at HMC will do all their best to provide pivotal foundations for maximizing profit and future
sustainability so that we may meet the expectations of our stakeholders.
We sincerely hope that true happiness and health stays with you and your families throughout this year of 2007.
Thank you.
