NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 BASIS OF PREPARING CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Fuji Electric Holdings Co., Ltd. (the Company ) and consolidated subsidiaries are prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in Japan, which are different in certain respects as to application and disclosure requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards, and are compiled from the consolidated financial statements prepared by the Company as required by the Securities and Exchange Law of Japan. In preparing these statements, certain reclassifications and rearrangements have been made to the consolidated financial statements prepared domestically in Japan in order to present these statements in a form that is more familiar to readers outside Japan. In addition, the notes to the consolidated financial statements include additional information which is not required under accounting principles generally accepted in Japan. Note 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2006 include the accounts of the Company and its 67 significant subsidiaries (61 in 2005 and 59 in 2004) (together, the Companies ). Under the control or influence concept, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and, with minor exceptions, those of its subsidiaries, whether directly or indirectly controlled, and those companies over which the Companies have the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for by the equity method. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All material unrealized profit included in assets resulting from transactions within the Companies is eliminated. The Company does not consolidate nor applies the equity method to subsidiaries or affiliates whose gross assets, net sales, net income (loss) and retained earnings are not significant to the consolidated financial statements. Investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and affiliates are accounted for by the cost method. The balance sheet date of the certain consolidated subsidiaries is December 31. If necessary, the significant transactions that arose during the period from January 1 through March 31 have been adjusted. In the elimination of investments in subsidiaries, the assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries, including the portion attributable to minority shareholders, are evaluated using the fair value at the time the Company acquired control of the respective subsidiaries. The excess of the Company s equity in the net assets at the respective dates of acquisition over the cost of its investments in consolidated subsidiaries, is being amortized over a period of 5 years. The amount of excess is included in OTHER LONG- TERM LIABILITIES on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2006. The amount of excess was 2,757 million ($23,566 thousand) at March 31, 2006. b. Cash Equivalents For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, the Companies consider all short-term, highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. c. Inventories Raw materials are stated at cost determined by the most recent purchase price method. Finished goods and work in process are stated at actual cost determined by accumulated production cost for contract items or average cost for regular production items, except that finished goods of certain consolidated subsidiaries are priced by the most recent purchase price method. In accordance with accounting practices generally accepted in the heavy electric industry, inventories include items with a manufacturing period exceeding one year. d. Securities Securities classified as other securities are stated at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, are reported in a separate component of shareholders equity. Non-marketable available-for-sale securities are stated at cost determined by the moving-average method. 71

e. Depreciation Depreciation is computed by the declining-balance method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, while the straight-line method is applied to the buildings of the Company and domestic subsidiaries acquired after April 1, 1998. The range of useful lives is from 7 to 50 years for buildings and from 5 to 13 years for machinery and equipment. f. Long-lived Assets In August 2002, the Business Accounting Council issued a Statement of Opinion, Accounting for Impairment of Fixed Assets, and in October 2003, the Accounting Standards Board of Japan (ASB) issued ASB Guidance No. 6, Guidance for Accounting Standard for Impairment of Fixed Assets. These new pronouncements were effective for fiscal years beginning on or after April 1, 2005. The Companies adopted the new accounting standard for impairment of fixed assets as of April 1, 2005. The effect of adoption of the new accounting standard for impairment of fixed assets was to decrease income before income taxes and minority interests for the year ended March 31, 2006 by 596 million ($5,099 thousand). The effects on the segment information were immaterial. g. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The allowance for doubtful accounts is stated in amounts considered to be appropriate based on the Companies past credit loss experience and an evaluation of potential losses in the receivables outstanding. h. Retirement Benefits The Company and its domestic consolidated subsidiaries have contributory funded pension plans, non-contributory funded pension plans and unfunded retirement benefit plans as defined benefit plans. Certain domestic subsidiaries have defined contribution pension plans. The Companies accounted for the liability for retirement benefits based on the projected benefit obligations and plan assets at the balance sheet date. The transitional obligation, determined as of April 1, 2000, is being amortized over ten years. The prior service cost is amortized by the straight-line method over the expected remaining working lives of the then-active employee participants. The actuarial gains and losses are amortized by the straightline method over the expected remaining working lives of the then-active employee participants from the next period in which they arise, respectively. Amortization of actuarial difference was classified as extraordinary loss due to the significance of the amount at March 31, 2003. However, due to the reorganization of the Company s structure, the Company was divided into a holding company and subsidiaries during the year ended March 31, 2004. Due to the change, the actuarial difference recorded at the Company was transferred to the holding company and subsidiaries. The actuarial difference was, then, amortized at each subsidiary level based on the amortization periods set by each subsidiary. As a result, amortization expense for the year ended March 31, 2004 was no longer significant. Accordingly, the amortization expense for the actuarial differences were included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses for the years ended March 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006. By the same token, the plan assets significantly exceeded project benefit obligation. As a result, unrecognized actuarial gain became extremely large mainly because the Company s employees decreased to a large extent. To eliminate this excess, in April 2004, marketable securities held in the employee retirement benefit trust were returned to the Company. Due to the large decrease in the number of employees, the unrecognized actuarial gain calculated by the proportion of the plan assets to trusted assets was recognized in the accompanying statement of income as an extraordinary gain. In March 2004, the Company and its certain domestic consolidated subsidiaries contributed certain marketable securities with the carrying amount of 3,663 million to the employee retirement benefit trust for the pension plans, and recognized a non-cash gain of 14,693 million. The securities held in this trust were qualified as plan assets. From the year ended March 31, 2006, the Company adopted the revised Accounting Standard for severance payments. The effects of this change were immaterial. The effects on the segment information were also immaterial. i. Reserve for Directors Retirement Benefits In the year ended March 31, 2006, the Company and some of its subsidiaries changed their accounting for directors retirement benefits. In the year ended March 31, 2005, directors retirement benefits were expensed as incurred. From the year ended March 31, 2006, accrued retirement benefits for directors were provided mainly at the amount of their compensation at the time of termination calculated based on its internal regulations. This change was made to justify periodic accounting of profit and loss and to return to a healthy financial characteristic. As a result of this change, operating income and ordinary income decreased by 360 million ($3,082 thousand), and income before income taxes and minority interests decreased by 1,091 million ($9,330 thousand) for the year ended March 31,2006. The effects on the segment information were immaterial. 72

j. Research and Development Costs Research and development costs are charged to income as incurred. k. Leases Finance leases other than those that are deemed to transfer the ownership of the leased assets to the lessees are accounted for by the method that is applicable to ordinary operating leases. l. Revenue Recognition Sales of products are generally recognized as delivery is made. Sales of installation products are recognized when installation is completed. m. Income Taxes The provision for income taxes is computed based on the pretax income included in the consolidated statements of income. The Company filed a joint tax return at the beginning of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, which allows companies to file tax payments on the combined basis of profits or losses of the parent company and its wholly owned domestic subsidiaries. The asset and liability approach is used to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred taxes are measured by applying currently enacted tax laws to the temporary differences. n. Foreign Currency Transactions All monetary receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Japanese yen at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. The foreign exchange gains and losses from translation are recognized in the statements of income to the extent that they are not hedged by forward exchange contracts. o. Foreign Currency Financial Statements Assets, liabilities, revenue and expense accounts of the consolidated foreign subsidiaries are translated into Japanese yen at the current exchange rate as of the balance sheet date except for shareholders equity, which is translated at the historical rate. Differences arising from such translation are included in minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries and Foreign currency translation adjustments as a separate component of shareholders equity. p. Derivatives and Hedging Activities The Companies enter into derivative financial instruments ( derivatives ), including foreign currency forward contracts to hedge foreign exchange risk associated with certain assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and interest rate swap agreements as a means of managing its interest rate exposures on certain assets and liabilities. Derivative financial instruments and foreign currency transactions are classified and accounted for as follows: a) All derivatives are recognized as either assets or liabilities and measured at fair value, and forward contracts applied for forecasted transactions are measured at fair value but the unrealized gains/losses are deferred until the underlying transactions are completed if the forward contracts qualify for hedge accounting. b) Trade receivables and trade payables denominated in foreign currencies for which foreign exchange forward contracts are used to hedge the foreign currency fluctuations are translated at the contracted rate if the forward contracts qualify for hedge accounting. c) The interest rate swaps which qualify for hedge accounting and meet specific matching criteria are not remeasured at market value but the differential paid or received under the swap agreements are recognized and included in interest expense or income. q. The Functional Currencies of the Consolidated Foreign Subsidiaries In the year ended March 31, 2006, some of the consolidated foreign subsidiaries changed the functional currencies to the U.S. dollar from their local currencies by the changes of local accounting standards. The effects of this change were immaterial. The effects on the segment information were also immaterial. r. Accounting for Consumption Taxes The Japanese consumption taxes withheld and consumption taxes paid are not included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. s. Net Income per Share Net income per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders, which is more precisely computed than under previous practices, by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, retroactively adjusted for stock splits. Diluted net income per share is not disclosed because it is anti-dilutive. 73

Note 3 U.S. DOLLAR AMOUNTS The U.S. dollar amounts included in accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto represent the arithmetic results of translating yen into dollars at 117=U.S.$1, the approximate exchange rate at March 31, 2006. The U.S. dollar amounts are presented solely for the convenience of the readers outside Japan.

The liability (asset) for employees retirement benefits at March 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 consisted of the following: Projected benefit obligation...

As a result, unrecognized actuarial gain became extremely large mainly because the Company s employees decreased to a large extent. To eliminate this excess, in April 2004, marketable securities held in the employee retirement benefit trust were returned to the Company. Due to the large decrease in the number of employees, the unrecognized actuarial gain calculated by the proportion of the plan assets to trusted assets was recognized in the accompanying statement of income as an extraordinary gain.

Note 17 DERIVATIVES The Companies, which operate globally, are exposed to market risk arising from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and enter into derivative financial instruments for the purpose of reducing such risk. The Companies also enter into interest rate swap agreements as a means of managing their interest rate exposure. The Companies do not hold or issue derivatives for speculative or dealing purposes. Because the counterparties to these derivatives are limited to authentic financial institutions, the Companies do not anticipate any losses arising from credit risk. All derivative transactions are entered into to hedge foreign currency exposures incorporated within business. Accordingly, market risk in these derivatives is basically offset by opposite movements in the value of hedged assets or liabilities. Derivative transactions entered into by the Companies have been made in accordance with the Companies policies. The execution and control of derivatives, which is based on the application of each section, are controlled by the Finance Department. Each derivative transaction is periodically reported to the management and each section. Fair Value of Derivative Financial Instruments: The fair value of the Companies derivative financial instruments at March 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 were as follows: Millions of yen 2006 2005 2004 Contract Unrealized Contract Unrealized Contract Unrealized Amount Fair Value Gain/Loss Amount Fair Value Gain/Loss Amount Fair Value Gain/Loss Foreign currency forward contracts: Receivables:... 7,221 7,329 (108) 3,217 3,267 (50) 4,472 4,306 166 Euro... 415 414 1 1,185 1,133 52 Canada dollars... 126 124 2 Total... 7,221 7,329 (108) 3,632 3,681 (49) 220 (Note 3) 2006 Contract Unrealized Amount Fair Value Gain/Loss Foreign currency forward contracts: Receivables:... $61,721 $62,645 $(924) Euro...
