Review of Operations

1. Review of Operations

In this third quarter, the growth of the world economy has slowed due to the expanded Eurozone debt problem and to the rapidly developing economies in emerging countries, including China, rapidly losing steam, and in spite of an indication of economic recovery in the United States.

Despite a strong automotive market and the need for the reconstruction of the Tohoku area, the Japanese economy still has some uncertainty in its outlook because of unstable employment, sluggish personal consumption, instability in electric power supply, deflation, the appreciation of the yen and diplomatic problems.

In this severe economic situation, the MARUWA Group's business results during this third quarter of this fiscal year were in line with our plans due to a strong demand for ceramic substrate for power modules, new products for smart phone devices and LED lighting.

As a result, our consolidated sales were15,849 million yen. (This is down 1.6% compared to the same period last year) Our operating income was 1,710 million yen. (This is down 30.9% compared to the same period last year) Ordinary profit was 1,990million yen (down 22.5%). Net income was 1,233 million yen (down 28.5%).

MARUWA acquired 100% of outstanding shares of Yamagiwa Corporation, which is one of the leading lighting solution companies in Japan. As a result of this share acquisition, Yamagiwa will become a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. By welcoming Yamagiwa as one of the core companies of the Group and utilizing its strong brand recognition and its position as a leading company in the area of lighting solutions, the Company aims to further expand its business base in the booming LED lighting market and enhance its global business growth.

2.Operating Results by Business Division

The Ceramic Components Division

The total sales for this business segment was 14,451 million yen. (This is down 2.6% compared to the same period last year).

The market for environment-related products, the power modules market and the smart phone market have remained strong.

Operating income was 2,265 million yen.

Lighting Equipment Division

The turnover was 1,398 million yen. This is a 11.0% increase over the same period last year. Operating profit was 82million yen . (This is increase 63.0% compared to the same period last year).

This improvement is due to a consistent increase in inquiries and orders for LED lighting devices in the public utilities markets. New types of products were very successful. MARUWA is continuing to press forward with the development and promotion of new LED lighting products.

forward with the development and promotion of new LED lighting products.
