1 Fiscal Year 213 (ending March 31, 214) First Half & Second Quarter Results (ended September 3, 213) Brother Industries, Ltd. November 6, 213 Information on this report, other than historical facts, refers to future prospects and performance, and has been prepared by our Management on the basis of information available at the time of the announcement. This covers various risks, including, but not limited to, economic conditions, customer demand, foreign currency exchange rates, tax rules, regulation and other factors. As a result, actual future performance may differ from any forecasts contained on this report.

2 Highlight Results for first half of FY213 Sales increased compared with the same period the previous year. For Communications & Printing equipment, sales in Europe decreased on a local currency basis. However, as the whole business, sales increased, supported by strong sales in Americas. For Machine tools, sales decreased due to a recoil reduction against large orders in the same period the previous year. For Industrial sewing machines, sales to China and other Asian regions recovered, backed by the recovery of business sentiment toward capital expenditure in the sewing industry. Operating income, despite a boost-up by yen depreciation, decreased compared with the previous year, due to a sales decrease in Machine tools, increased capital expenditure (depreciation) associated with the production enhancement of Communications & Printing equipment, and an increase in SG&A. Forecast for FY213 The outlook for the full year 213 consolidated financial results is that sales, due to the effect of yen depreciation, are expected to significantly increase compared with the same period the previous year. Despite negative factors, such as an increase in SG&A and an increase in fixed costs including R&D and depreciation costs, operating income is expected to increase, supported by the effect of yen depreciation. 213 Brother Industries, Ltd.
