CONTENTS
Forward-Looking Statements
This annual report contains forward-looking statements about Mitsubishi Motors Corporation’s plans,
strategies, beliefs and performance that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements are
based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about the industries in which
Mitsubishi Motors Corporation operates, management’s beliefs and assumptions made by management.
As the expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties
and assumptions, they may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Mitsubishi Motors
Corporation, therefore, wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking state-
ments. Furthermore, Mitsubishi Motors Corporation undertakes no obligation to update any forward-
looking statements as a result of new information, future events or other developments.
