II. Business Overview 1. Risk Factors There were no new risk factors recognized during the nine months ended.

Material Agreements, etc. No material agreements were entered into during the three months ended. 3. Analyses of Consolidated Financial Condition, Operating Results and Cash Flows (1) Outline of Business Results Results of Operations During the nine months ended, in the U.S., consumer spending and housing investment remained firm due to improving employment, and capital investment and exports recovered. Meanwhile, in Europe, economies in the U.K. slowed due mainly to the result of the Brexit referendum, but those in the euro area continued to grow moderately, underpinned by increasing government expenditure and firm consumer spending. In China, although the economy was supported by infrastructure investments made by the government, the economic growth continued to slow. In emerging markets, tough economic conditions continued due mainly to accelerated capital outflow caused by currency depreciation against dollar, despite a slight recovery in crude oil and resource prices. In Japan, the yen appreciation continued until early November. However, the economy turned into upward momentum due to the recovery in consumer spending and the reversal of the strong yen trend. Under these conditions, results of operations in the nine months ended were as follows. Revenues decreased 10% to 6,519.3 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to lower revenues in the Information & Telecommunication Systems, High Functional Materials & Components, Smart Life & Ecofriendly Systems and Others segments. This decrease was partially offset by increased revenues in the Social Infrastructure & Industrial Systems segment. Cost of sales decreased 10% to 4,817.1 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, and the ratio of cost of sales to revenues accounted for 74%, which was the same level as the nine months ended December 31, Gross profit decreased 9% to 1,702.1 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, Selling, general and administrative expenses ( SG&A ) decreased 9% to 1,329.0 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, and the ratio of SG&A to revenues was 20%, which was the same level as the nine months ended December 31, Other income decreased 7.5 billion to 42.0 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to a decrease in net gain on business reorganization and others. Other expenses increased 18.3 billion to 69.2 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to an increase in impairment losses, despite lower special termination benefits, etc. Financial income (excluding interest income) decreased 4.2 billion to 5.7 billion and financial expenses (excluding interest charges) increased 2.7 billion to 23.7 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, respectively. Share of profits of investments accounted for using the equity method increased 19.3 billion to 34.1 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes, which is presented as income from continuing operations, before income taxes less interest income plus interest charges) decreased 48.8 billion to billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, Interest income increased 0.6 billion to 9.6 billion and interest charges decreased 4.6 billion to 14.7 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, respectively. Income from continuing operations, before income taxes decreased 43.6 billion to billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, Income taxes decreased 29.8 billion to 86.8 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, Loss from discontinued operations decreased 13.5 billion to 0.8 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, Net income decreased 0.2 billion to billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, Net income attributable to non-controlling interests decreased 18.5 billion to 77.9 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, As a result of the foregoing, net income attributable to Hitachi, Ltd. stockholders increased 18.2 billion to billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31,

6 Operations by Segment The following is an overview of results of operations by segment. Revenues for each segment include intersegment transactions. Segment profit is measured by EBIT. (Information & Telecommunication Systems) Revenues decreased 7% to 1,397.3 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to the decreased revenues at overseas subsidiaries owing to negative impact of foreign currency translation and lower sales of ATMs for overseas markets. Segment profit decreased 19.0 billion to 51.5 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to posting restructuring charges and exchange loss, despite the effect of structural reform centered on the telecommunications & network business and an improvement in profitability of the social infrastructure-related information systems. (Social Infrastructure & Industrial Systems) Revenues increased 5% to 1,587.6 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to substantial revenue increase in the rail systems business resulting from the acquisition of the business of AnsaldoBreda S.p.A. (excluding a part of its operations) and Ansaldo STS S.p.A., and from increased sales for the U.K. This increase was partially offset by the negative impact of foreign currency translation in the elevators and escalators business and revenue decrease in the industrial plant-related business that strategically promoted selective acceptance of orders. Segment profit increased 2.7 billion to 36.5 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to increased revenues and share of profits of investments accounted for using the equity method. (Electronic Systems & Equipment) Revenues increased 1% to billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to higher revenues at Hitachi Koki Co., Ltd. owing to the acquisition of metabo Aktiengesellschaft, a German company, despite lower revenues at Hitachi Kokusai Electric Inc. owing to lower sales of semiconductor processing equipment and sluggish overseas sales of broadcasting equipment. Segment profit increased 1.7 billion to 48.9 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to higher earnings at Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation which recorded firm sales of semiconductor processing equipment, despite decreased eranings at Hitachi Kokusai Electric Inc. owing to lower revenues and posting exchange loss. (Construction Machinery) Revenues decreased 8% to billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to the impact of weaker local currencies in Europe, Africa and Asia, and continued sluggish market conditions in Japan and the Americas. Segment profit increased 3.7 billion to 9.2 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to an improvement of exchange profit (loss), despite lower revenues. (High Functional Materials & Components) Revenues decreased 10% to 1,067.3 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to lower revenues at Hitachi Metals, Ltd. resulting from decreased revenues at overseas subsidiaries owing to negative impact of foreign currency translation and declining demand associated with the slower economic growth in China and emerging countries in Asia. Segment profit decreased 27.9 billion to 91.6 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to lower revenues, posting exchange loss and the absence of net gain on business reorganization and others related to the sale of equity interest in Hitachi Tool Engineering, Ltd. by Hitachi Metals, Ltd. recorded in the nine months ended December 31, (Automotive Systems) Revenues decreased 2% to billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to the negative impact of foreign currency translation, despite higher sales especially in North America and China, where demand for automobiles was firm. Segment profit decreased 3.9 billion to 35.5 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to lower revenues. (Smart Life & Ecofriendly Systems) Revenues decreased 22% to billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to the effect of reorganization of the air-conditioning systems business with an equity-method associate, a joint venture company with Johnson Controls, Inc. Segment profit decreased 15.5 billion to 19.2 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to decreased revenues resulting from the effect of the reorganization of the air-conditioning systems business and the 3

7 absence of net gain on business reorganization and others related to the reorganization of the air-conditioning systems business recorded in the nine months ended December 31, 2015, despite an improvement in the share of profit of investments accounted for using the equity method. (Others) Revenues decreased 47% to billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to the conversion of Hitachi Transport System, Ltd. to an equity-method associate. Segment profit decreased 23.4 billion to 14.6 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to lower revenues. (Financial Services) As Hitachi Capital Corporation was converted into an equity-method associate as of October 3, 2016, there is no company which belongs to the Financial Services segment. Consequently, revenues decreased 34% to billion and segment profit decreased 12.9 billion to 22.8 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, respectively. Revenues by Market Revenues in Japan decreased 9% to 3,300.5 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to revenue decrease in the Others segment, in which Hitachi Transport System, Ltd. was converted to an equity-method associate, and in the Financial Services segment, in which Hitachi Capital Corporation was converted to an equity-method associate, as well as lower revenues in the Electronic Systems & Equipment and High Functional Materials & Components segments. Overseas revenues decreased 11% to 3,218.7 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to lower revenues in Asia mainly in the Social Infrastructure & Industrial Systems and Smart Life & Ecofriendly Systems segments, and in North America mainly in the Information & Telecommunication Systems and High Functional Materials & Components segments. This decrease was partially offset by higher revenues in Europe mainly in the Social Infrastructure & Industrial Systems segment. As a result, the ratio of overseas revenues to total revenues decreased 1% to 49%, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, (2) Summary of Financial Condition, etc. Liquidity and Capital Resources During the nine months ended, there were no major changes in the Company s policies of maintaining liquidity and ensuring funds, efforts for improvement in fund management efficiency, and ideas regarding funding sources and fundraising.

(excluding a part of its operations) and Ansaldo STS S.p.A., and Pentaho Corporation. Proceeds from sale of investments in securities and other financial assets (including investments in subsidiaries and investments accounted for using the equity method) in the nine months ended increased by 79.8 billion, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2015, due mainly to the transfer of a part of shares of Hitachi Transport System, Ltd. and Hitachi Capital Corporation.

For this purpose, the Company keeps its shareholders and investors well informed of not just the business results for each period but also of the Company s business policies for creating value in the future. The Company does not deny the significance of the vitalization of business activities and performance that can be brought about through a change in management control, but it recognizes the necessity of determining the impact on company value and the interests of all shareholders of the buying activities and buyout proposals of parties attempting to acquire a large share of stock of the Company or a Group company by duly examining the business description, future business plans, past investment activities, and other necessary aspects of such a party. There is no party that is currently attempting to acquire a large share of the Company s stocks nor is there a specific threat, neither does the Company intend to implement specified so-called anti-takeover measures in advance of the appearance of such a party, but the Company does understand that it is one of the natural duties bestowed upon it by the shareholders and investors to continuously monitor the state of trading of the Company s stock and then to immediately take what the Company deems to be the best action in the event of the appearance of a party attempting to purchase a large share of the Company s stock. In particular, together with outside experts, the Company will evaluate the buyout proposal of the party and hold negotiations with the buyer, and if the Company deems that said buyout will not maintain the Company s value and is not in the best interest of the shareholders, then the Company will quickly determine the necessity, content, etc., of specific countermeasures and prepare to implement them. The same response will also be taken in the event a party attempts to acquire a large percentage of the shares of a Group company. 5

Consequently, no property, plants and equipment was recorded in the segment. 6
