Financial Index (3)

(as of August 31, 2009)

These tables and graphs present our ROE, ROA and other financial data for the past 10 years. In recent years, we have increased our investments aimed at sustaining growth. This is why R&D; expenditures and capital expenditures have been climbing. Furthermore, we are taking actions aimed at improving our financial soundness. One way is by reducing debt. We are also operating more efficiently, such as by reducing assets to raise the ROA and the turnover ratio for total assets.
