Business Report for the 109th Interim Term From April 1, to September 30, EB3000, our original integrated transport service from Rotterdam to Moscow

TOP MESSAGE To Our Shareholders I would like to take this opportunity to thank our shareholders for their continued support and understanding. I, hereby, present the Business Report for the 109th Interim Term. President and Chief Executive CONTENTS To Our Shareholders P 1 Transition of Consolidated Business Results P 1 Topics in Japan P 5 Transition of Consolidated Business Results Revenues (Unit: 100 millions of yen) 16,171 16,280 16,133 17,524 1H FY 18,700 (Forecast) Overseas Topics P 7 Consolidated Financial Statements P 9 8,043 8,019 7,987 8,357 9,192 General Overview of the Company P 11 1 Information for Shareholders P 13 2011/3 (105th Term) 2012/3 (106th Term) 2013/3 (107th Term) /3 (108th Term) 2015/3 (109th Term)

The Japanese economy during the first half of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015 saw a moderate recovery trend, backed by yen depreciation and rising stock prices resulting from the government s economic policies, despite weakness in some areas of personal consumption and corporate production due to the impact of the rebound decline following the last-minute demand accompanying the consumption tax rate increase, in addition to unfavorable weather and other factors. Under these economic conditions, in the field of logistics, domestic freight was sluggish overall, due to a decline in consumer-related freight in addition to a fall in construction-related freight. Meanwhile, international freight remained steady overall despite sluggish imports, as exports showed solid growth reflecting a moderate recovery in the global economy. Amid such a business environment, as the Nippon Express Group marked the halfway point of its threeyear medium-term management plan, Nippon Express Group Management Plan 2015 Innovation and Moving Forward, the Group pursued even further growth by working collectively on the four key strategies of Further Expanding Our Global Logistics Business, Strengthening Management Practices for Our Domestic Businesses, Expanding Business by Utilizing the Diversity of Group Companies and Contributing to Society through Our Businesses in Accordance with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Management. With regard to our main initiatives, in our global logistics business, we have worked to strengthen our overseas business base in order to respond to diversifying logistics needs, through measures such as enhancing multi modal integrated transport services through expansion of our overseas transport network, and developing bases in the ASEAN region aimed at capturing regional logistics, in addition to making proactive capital investment in our areas of expertise including Heavy Haulage & Construction Business. In our domestic businesses, we have reviewed our organization for land, sea and air transportation in Operating Income (Unit: 100 millions of yen) 316 150 2011/3 (105th Term) 374 139 2012/3 (106th Term) 332 157 2013/3 (107th Term) 408 174 /3 (108th Term) 1H 450 (Forecast) 202 2015/3 (109th Term) FY Status of Revenues by Segment (Consolidated) (Unit: 100 millions of yen) Distribution & Transportation Domestic Companies Revenues Segment Income Combined Business 3,655 64 Security Transport 276 3 Heavy Haulage & Construction 246 11 Air Transportation 918 25 Marine & Harbor Transportation 596 29 The Americas 374 17 Overseas Europe 395 10 Companies East Asia 480 7 South Asia & Oceania 291 6 Goods Sales 2,084 27 Other 538 7 Elimination & Other Adjustments (667) (9) Total 9,192 202 2

TOP MESSAGE To Our Shareholders regional blocks and planned construction of one of Japan s largest logistics facility capable of handling all modes of transportation in the metropolitan areas in order to reinforce a sales structure that can provide one-stop products and services. In addition, we have strived to maximize profit through effective management of corporate resources by introducing a new system to integrate operation management and business management. As a result of the above, our consolidated business results for the first six months of the 109th term were as follows: Revenues of 919.2 billion (up 10.0% year-on-year) Operating income of 20.2 billion (up 15.7% year-on-year) Ordinary income of 25.0 billion (up 11.7% year-on-year) Net income of 16.0 billion (up 115.7% year-on-year) Concerning the interim dividend payments for the 109th term, it was decided at the Board of Directors meeting held on October 31 to pay an interim dividend of 5 per common share with the starting day for payment being December 2,. In terms of the direction of the economy for the rest of the fiscal year, in overseas economies, the robust U.S. economy is expected to be a driver of a recovery, despite a growing sense of economic slowdown in the Eurozone and China amid potential geopolitical risks due to regional conflicts around the world and other matters. Domestically, while capital investment is expected to increase due to improvements in corporate earnings, the economic uncertainty over the future is expected to continue, reflecting the slow pace of recovery in personal consumption resulting from rising prices due to the impact of yen depreciation and burden associated with the consumption tax hike. In the field of logistics, although international freight is expected to be solid especially in exports backed by Transition of Consolidated Business Results Ordinary Income (Unit: 100 millions of yen) 474 406 415 501 1H FY 530 (Forecast) Net Income (Unit: 100 millions of yen) 269 238 263 1H FY 300 (Forecast) 203 190 206 223 250 85 42 99 113 74 160 3 2011/3 (105th Term) 2012/3 (106th Term) 2013/3 (107th Term) /3 (108th Term) 2015/3 (109th Term) 2011/3 (105th Term) 2012/3 (106th Term) 2013/3 (107th Term) /3 (108th Term) 2015/3 (109th Term)

the global economic recovery, in domestic freight, consumer-related and other freight are expected to remain sluggish due to slump in consumer sentiment. In this context, the Group is faced with numerous challenges needed to be solved, including the issues of labor shortages and higher costs due to rising fuel oil expenses, in addition to securing personnel to support logistics and balancing logistics efficiency with increased security in international logistics. The Nippon Express Group, in preparation for sustainable growth, will continue to deal with this business environmental changes, and be united in its effort to accomplish the Nippon Express Group Management Plan 2015 Innovation and Moving Forward. We would be grateful for your continued support as shareholders in this regard.

About the Cover Illustrations Title: The Newly Opened Port of Yokohama in Kanagawa Artist: Sadahide Utagawa Year: February 1860 Nippon Express Co., Ltd. Collection (Entrusted to Kanagawa Prefectural Museum of Cultural History) This woodblock print (ukiyo-e) is one of a series of works in a genre called Yokohama ukiyo-e woodblock prints depicting everyday life in Yokohama at the end of the Edo Period and start of the Meiji Period. The print shows a street running from the first to the fifth precinct of Honcho, part of a Japanese settlement in Yokohama, within the first year following the opening of the port at the end of the Edo Period. This street was the main street and had a width of 10 meters. Today, this street runs from the first to the sixth precincts of Honcho in Naka-ku, Yokohama. The picture details the liveliness of the town with carts carrying heavy loads, workhorses distributing cargo to shops, many merchants crossing paths, people plying their trades in the street and people travelling through. It s not clear whether or not such lively scenes actually took place, but it emphasizes the prosperity of the newly opened port area and Yokohama, which is said to reflect the intentions of the feudal government of the time. Nonetheless, 154 years have passed since this print was made public. People s appearances have changed while workhorses and carts have given way to trucks and lines of merchant stores have been transformed into high-rise buildings. Nowadays, the Minatomirai train line runs under this road. The print portrays a booming Yokohama following the start of foreign trade as Japan opened up and in a way it could be said that it provides a glimpse into the future prosperity of the domestic economy stemming from international logistics. July Introduction of Operation Support System In order to consolidate management of increasingly diversified business information, Nippon Express has begun using the Operation Support System, which integrates operation management and business management. In particular, by linking to specialized smartphones installed in each vehicle, the system achieves the visualization and streamlining of business states through functions such as grasping information about vehicle operations in real time.
