5 1. Analyses of Results of Operations and Financial Position (1) Analysis of Results of Operations During the fiscal year ended March 31,, the Japanese economy maintained a slow but moderate recovery trend, sustained by continuing lower oil price and depreciation of the yen, despite the impact of reaction following the spike in demand ahead of the consumption tax hike and bad weather in summer. Overseas economies were mixed, as the U.S. economy continued its modest recovery trend, while the Asian economy was weak with such factors as a slowdown in China s economic growth. European economy remained sluggish. In such an economic environment, net sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, increased to 162,999 million up by 1.9% compared with the previous fiscal year. In terms of profits, operating income was 9,265 million up by 6.7% compared with the previous fiscal year due to expansion of sales of higher value-added products, despite the influence of remaining high prices of raw materials. Ordinary income amounted to 10,017 million, up by 6.5% compared with the previous fiscal year. On the other hand, net income was 5,662 million down by 5.9% compared with the previous fiscal year. It is mainly due to extraordinary loss recorded as provision for the loss from liquidation of a consolidated subsidiary in China during the fiscal year ended March 31, which is the Company s response to changes in the structure of demand. Operating results by business segment are as follows: The stated amount of operating income is before the reduction of corporate allocation. (Pigments business) In the Pigments business, the Group manufactures and sells various inorganic-organic pigments, various colorants, and information-recording materials. Sales of pigments for color filters and toner of information-recording materials continued strong while pigments for the paint industry were sluggish. As a result, although net sales in the segment stood at 24,162 million, up by 1.7% compared with the previous fiscal year, operating income was 3,743 million, down by 2.1% compared with the previous fiscal year. (Prepared colors and Chemicals business) In the Prepared colors and Chemicals business, the Group manufactures and sells various colorants used in synthetic resins, various compounds and various coating materials. As for sales to the automobile industry, overseas sales continued strong while domestic sales dropped as a reaction to the rush in demand ahead of the consumption tax hike. Sales of coating materials to information and electronics industries expanded for use in production of LCD televisions and smartphones. As a result, net sales in the segment stood at 89,949 million, up by 3.4% compared with the previous fiscal year, while operating income was 4,469 million, up by 8.1% compared with the previous fiscal year. (Polymers business) In the Polymers business, the Group manufactures and sells polymer products and natural polymer products. Sales of materials for interior products for the automobile industry expanded backed by strong demand in the North America and brisk sales of vehicle models that use the Company s products. Sales of special coating agents of information-recording materials continued strong overall especially in U.S. As a result, net sales in the segment stood at 17,773 million, down by 0.5% compared with the previous fiscal year, while operating income was 3,068 million, up by 2.1% compared with the previous fiscal year. (Printing Inks business) In the Printing Inks business, the Group manufactures and sells various printing inks and also offers merchandise and services associated with the business. As for gravure printing ink for the packaging industry, it remained robust for food-related use although sales for beverage-related use was decreased negatively impacted by the bad weather in summer. In Southeast Asia market, sales continued to be brisk especially in 2

6 products of lifestyle-related and food-related. On the other hand, sales of offset printing ink for book publishing industry dropped sharply due to a decrease in demand. As a result, net sales in the segment stood at 29,492 million, down by 1.7% compared with the previous fiscal year, while operating income was 2,465 million, up by 3.3% compared with the previous fiscal year. (Other business) In the Other business, the Group engages in leasing of real estate properties and financial business for group companies, and others. Net sales in this segment stood at 1,621 million, up by 28.8% compared with the previous fiscal year, while operating income was 135 million. Consolidated financial results for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016 are forecasted as follows: Net income attributable to Net sales Operating income Ordinary income owners of parent 168,000 10,000 10,300 6,700 (2) Analysis of Financial Position (i) Assets, Liabilities and Net Assets (Assets) Total assets as at the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, increased by 12,413 million compared with the end of the previous fiscal year to 177,458 million. This is largely because of an increase in inventories, increase in unrealized gains on investment securities due to rise of stock markets and increase in net defined benefit asset thanks to strong management performance of pension assets. (Liabilities) Total liabilities as at the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, increased by 2,006 million compared with the end of the previous fiscal year to 100,273 million. This is largely because of an increase in Deferred tax liabilities. (Net assets) Net assets as at the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, increased by 10,406 million compared with the end of the previous fiscal year to 77,184 million. This is largely because of an increase in retained earnings thanks to the recognition of net income for the year, as well as an increase in foreign currency translation adjustment resulting from a depreciation of yen and a rise in valuation difference on available-for-sale securities driven by an increase in unrealized gains on investment securities. (ii) Cash Flows In the fiscal year ended March 31,, cash and cash equivalents (hereinafter referred to as net cash ) at the end of the current fiscal year increased by 21 million (or 0.1%) compared with the end of the previous fiscal year to 26,181 million. Net cash provided by (used in) respective activities during the fiscal year ended March 31, are as follows: (Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities) Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by 1,503 million (or 20.9%) compared with the previous fiscal year to 5,673 million, This is largely because of an increase in inventories, which were partially offset by the recognition of income before income taxes and minority interests of 9,087 million. (Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities) Net cash used in investing activities decreased by 3,687 million (or 59.1%) compared with the previous fiscal year to 2,555 million. This was mainly because of disposal of idle assets, which was partially offset by 3

7 spending in capital investment of 4,336 million. (Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities) Net cash used in financing activities increased by 580 million (or 17.3%) compared with the previous fiscal year to 3,937 million. This is largely because of 1,114 million payment for cash dividends and continued effort to progressively repay loans payable.

(3) Principles of Appropriation of Profits and Dividend Payment for the Current Fiscal Year and the Next The Company makes it a principle to pursue dividend policy in which the return of profits to shareholders is regarded as an important management priority, yet with broader consideration to the reinforcement of its operation basis through building up of internal reserves, for the business development in future.

19 (5) Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Notes to Going Concern Assumption) Not applicable. (Significant Matters Providing the Basis for Preparing Consolidated Financial Statements) 1. Scope of consolidation Number of consolidated subsidiaries: 27 companies From the fiscal year ended March 31,, DAINICHI COLOR INDIA PRIVATE LTD., DAICOLOR DO BRASIL IND.E COM.LTDA., and DAINICHI PLABOARD CO., LTD. have been included in the scope of consolidation as their importance increased. 2. Accounting standards (1) Accounting standards for significant allowances and provisions (i) Provision for disposal costs of property The Company provides for expenditures associated with demolition of buildings, etc. based on the amount reasonably estimated for such demolition expenses. (ii) Provision for loss on liquidation of subsidiaries and associates The Company provides for losses associated with liquidation of subsidiaries and affiliates based on the estimated amount attributable to the Company as of the end of the fiscal year ended March 31,. (2) Accounting policies for retirement benefits (i) Method of attributing estimated retirement benefits to periods of service In calculating retirement benefit obligations, the Company attributes estimated retirement benefits to the periods concluding at the end of the fiscal year ended March 31,, using the benefit formula method. (ii) Accounting policies for actuarial gains or losses and prior service costs Actuarial gains or losses are amortized pro rata using the straight-line method commencing from the fiscal year following the fiscal year in which these gains or losses occurred, over the certain amount of periods (14 years) that are within the average remaining service years of employees at the time of the occurrence. Prior service costs are charged to expenses, using the straight-line method, over the certain amount of periods (10 years) that are within the average remaining service years of the employees at the time of the occurrence of those costs. (iii) Accounting procedure for unrecognized net actuarial gains or losses and unrecognized prior service costs Unrecognized net actuarial gains or losses and unrecognized prior service costs are reported as remeasurements of defined benefit plans under accumulated other comprehensive income within net assets, after adjusted for tax effects. 16

20 (Changes in Accounting Policies) (Adoption of Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits) Effective from the current consolidated fiscal year, the Company has adopted the provisions of Paragraph 35 of the Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits (Accounting Standards Board of Japan (ASBJ) Statement No. 26, May 17, 2012; the Accounting Standard ) and Paragraph 67 the Guidance on Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits (ASBJ Guidance No. 25, March 26, ; the Guidance ). With this application, the calculation methods for retirement benefit obligations and service cost have been changed, the method of allocating expenses for projected benefit obligation to periods has been changed from straight-line method to the benefit formula method. In addition, the method of determining the discount rate applied in the calculation of projected benefit obligation was changed from the method using the number of years approximate to the average remaining service period of employees to the method using the single weighted average discount rate that reflects the estimated period and amount of benefit payment in each period. In accordance with the transitional treatment prescribed in Paragraph 37 of the Accounting Standard, the Company applied the Accounting Standard at the beginning of fiscal year ended March 31,, and the effect of the accounting change in retirement benefit obligations and service cost was reflected in retained earnings. As a result, net defined benefit asset increased by 316 million, net defined benefit liability increased by 262 million and retained earnings increased by 34 million at the beginning of the current fiscal year. The impact of this change on consolidated operating income, ordinary income, income before income taxes and minority interests, and per share information for the fiscal year ended March 31, is immaterial. (Change in the Method for Translating the Income and Expenses of Overseas Subsidiaries into Japanese Yen) Previously, the Company translated the income and expenses of overseas subsidiaries into yen at the spot exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date, but it switched to translating income and expenses into yen at the average exchange rate during the period from the consolidated fiscal year ended March 31,. This change was made because the Group has been promoting an increase in overseas sales and global expansion, so the Company determined that translating the income and expenses of overseas subsidiaries into yen at the average exchange rate during the period is logical in order to show the profit of overseas subsidiaries for the period properly amidst an anticipated increase in the materiality of the overseas subsidiaries in the future. This change in accounting policy has been applied retrospectively, and the consolidated financial statements for the previous fiscal year are stated following retrospective application. As a result, net sales decreased by 2,179 million, operating income decreased by 184 million, ordinary income decreased by 39 million and income before income taxes and minority interests decreased by 41 million in the previous fiscal year compared with before the retrospective application. In addition, as the cumulative effect was reflected in consolidated net assets at the beginning of the previous fiscal year, the balance at the beginning of the period for the previous fiscal year decreased by 769 million for retained earnings while foreign currency translation adjustment increased by the same amount. Impacts on the per share information are stated in the relevant part of this report.
