A MESSAGE FROM THE CFO—CHIYODA’S FINANCIAL STRATEGIES

I was appointed the CFO at Chiyoda Corporation in June 2017, 

a challenging time for the Company. After a net loss of ¥41.1 billion in 

FY2016, mainly due to the ECS investment, revenues and backlog are 

expected to decline in FY2017. To deal with these challenges I have 

identifi ed four key missions to carry out. By realizing these, the Chiyoda 

Group will reverse downward trends and enhance shareholder value. 

As the CFO, I will undertake the following:

1

Provide fi nancial support to implement 

the new Medium-Term Management Plan 

2

3

Improve the Group’s capital effi ciency and profi tability

Ensure the Company’s fi nancial stability to 

support sustainable growth

4

Enhance communication with stakeholders

Hirotsugu Hayashi
Senior Executive Vice President & CFO

Specifi cs of those initiatives include:

1. Financial support for the new Medium-Term Management Plan

•  The new Medium-Term Management Plan develops a business strategy that focuses on areas where 

Chiyoda has a distinct competitive advantage and prioritizes areas with the highest potential.

•  Providing adequate financial support to implement this business strategy is a key to the plan’s success. 
•  Using enhanced risk management techniques is essential for creating optimum opportunities.

2. Capital effi ciency and profi tability

•  Emphasize capital efficiency as a strong lever for future success.
•  Create a lean operating structure capable of dealing with challenging market conditions while 

delivering profitability.

•  Evaluate returns to ensure management resources are being used to best advantage.
•  Prioritize investment in opportunities with the highest potential.
•  Focus on managing business on a Groupwide basis to maximize the soundness and profitability of 

Chiyoda as an integrated group.

3. Financial position

•  With a core business of LNG and other plant construction, it is important to have abundant liquidity and a 

solid financial position.

•  Recognize that the Company’s strong financial position supports high-level operating capabilities.
•  Maintain an optimum capital policy and fi nancial strategy that provide a pathway to sustainable future growth.

• Chiyoda will maintain a payout ratio of at least 30% 

4. Communication with stakeholders

for the next four years (MTMP period) and a 
minimum full-year dividend of ¥6 per share.

• Chiyoda determines the dividend amount each 
fi scal year in consideration of progress under 
growth and investment strategies and the operating 
environment.

•  Strengthen our communication with stakeholders both inside and outside the Company.
•  Listen and respond to shareholder concerns, both at the executive level and through our IR team.
•  Communication with stakeholders inside the company is a key to implementing the business and fi nancial strategy.
•  Improve the transparency of corporate governance.

Together, these policies can enhance our corporate values, especially when leveraging the Group’s natural 

synergies on a global basis.

TOPICS

Chiyoda Corporation constantly searches for ways to leverage its expertise in the adoption of 

new businesses and technological applications. Examples of projects currently under way include:

Artifi cial Intelligence
Looking to optimize technological breakthroughs 

in big data analysis and artifi cial intelligence while 

delivering solutions to customers, Chiyoda has 

established a business alliance with GRID, Inc., 

a leader in the fi eld of AI. Through this agreement, 

made in December 2016, Chiyoda’s engineering 

technologies will be merged with GRID’s state-of-

the-art AI technology, allowing Chiyoda to offer 

advanced services such as plant operation 

optimization and enhanced maintenance support.

Renewable Jet and Diesel Fuels
In February 2016, Chiyoda signed a construc-
tion contract with euglena Co., Ltd. for Japan’s 
fi rst pilot plant for bio-jet and diesel fuel 
production. Through construction of this plant 
(scheduled completion: October 2018) the 
Company continues its commitment to the 
broad use of bio-jet and diesel fuels in Japan 
and the associated reduction in greenhouse 
gas emissions.

Oil Refi nery Projects
The oil refi nery in Qatar was completed in 

November 2016 and handed over to the client. 

This project was a major feat of civil engineering, 

with 1.2 million cubic meters of soil moved and 

replaced at the installation site. Construction 

continued throughout high summer, when 

workers experienced temperatures exceeding 

40 degrees Celsius, causing a host of diffi cul-

ties. However, a concerted effort involving the 
customer, partners and construction contractors 

ensured that the project was brought to 
conclusion without incident. 

ANNUAL REPORT FY2016

Environmental Technology—SPERA Hydrogen 
and Flue Gas Desulfurization Technology
Chiyoda attended the Kawasaki International 
Eco-Tech Fair 2017, where it showcased Chiyoda’s 
SPERA Hydrogen, winner of the Grand Prize at the 
Nikkei Global Environmental Technology Awards in 
2016. Participation in such exhibitions allows Chiyoda 
to provide stakeholders with detailed insights into its 
activities in the hydrogen fi eld.  

Chiyoda is also active in India, a country that suffers 

from severe pollution due to rapid economic growth. 
Chiyoda provides fl ue gas desulfurization technology 
for coal-fi red power plants to Larsen & Toubro, one of 
India’s largest heavy industry manufacturers. Chiyoda’s 
CT-121 process already enjoys more than a 20% 
market share in the Japanese and American coal-fi red 
power plant markets, countries that operate under 
strict environmental regulations. Similar activities in 

India should have a signifi cant impact on air pollution 

abatement in this rapidly emerging market.

Hydrogen Storage Tank

Dealing with Challenges in the Field of LNG
The Yamal LNG project currently under way in 

Russia faces special challenges. The plant is 

situated in the Arctic Circle at a latitude of 72 

degrees north, experiences lengthy periods 

without sun during winter and sees tempera-

tures falling to minus 50 degrees Celsius. 

Despite these conditions, construction 

continues, including installation of construc-

tion modules, some weighing over 6,000 tons, 

which have been delivered by boat from 

fabrication yards across Asia. 

On the other side of the world, steady 

progress is being made on the Freeport LNG 

and Cameron LNG projects under way in the 

U.S. Combined, these two projects employ 

more than 10,000 people. In March, the 

Cameron project reached a record of 20 

million man-hours without an accident, 

illustrating the commitment of all staff to the 

Company’s safety-fi rst policy.

RESPECT FOR HUMAN RIGHTS

At the Chiyoda Group, human resources are valuable assets. We aim to maintain a corporate culture of 

which all employees and their families are proud.

The Group operates worldwide and, under an initiative promoted by the Japanese government, 

recognizes the need for changes in work style that refl ects the development of global human resources 

and respects diversity.

INITIATIVES FOR CHANGES IN WORK STYLE IN FY2016

We have been encouraging reform through changes in our employees’ mindsets and organizational 

operations as well as improvements in the operating bases where Chiyoda is 1) a company whose employ-

ees are motivated to continue working on a long-term basis and 2) a company that is continually able to 

develop its competitiveness and strength.

We have developed systems for reduced working hours and for leaves of absence for employees 

constrained by child care or nursing care. Among our achievements in FY2016, we embraced diversity, 

made the child care and nursing care systems more fl exible and introduced a system to afford retired 

employees new re-employment opportunities. Additional steps include:

1) Leaves of absence for employees working in Japan or overseas to be off with their spouses

2) Re-employment opportunities for people who have left the company for child care, nursing care or to 

accompany spouses who have been transferred

3) Work-at-home (teleworking) opportunities on a trial basis (Note: Full-scale introduction was launched 

in May 2017.)

These steps were taken to secure human resources willing and able to work and to help retired employ-

ees be re-employed when their circumstances change, all enabling us to increase our workforce in an

CHIYODA’S DIVERSITY

Chiyoda Corporation believes in the philosophy and integrity of diversity in the workplace and 

actively encourages employees to think and act accordingly. 

Ms. Kaoru Nakamura, a Chiyoda employee for 31 years, has been assigned to the position of 

General Manager in the Project Logistics & Construction Planning & Administration Unit. We 

posed these questions to her: 

Q

Q

  What does the issue of “diversity” mean to you?

  Particularly in Japan, most people have the impression that diversity is an issue only about women. That is not 
correct. To consider diversity in a large corporation properly is to include, along with gender, nationality, age, 
the challenged, family care and other issues. The subject of diversity involves everybody, and all of us should 
consider discussing this subject.

  Why should Chiyoda embrace diversity?

  Chiyoda has already accepted the philosophy of diversity. Project teams and construction sites are fi lled with 

multinationals working for the common goal of a successful project. At CGH, we respect and value each other, 
regardless of background or nationality, focusing on the contribution each person makes to Chiyoda’s 
success. We enjoy an excellent working environment that enables us to grow individually while improving the 
quality and effi ciency of our business. At the same time, we realize that when we lose people for personal 
reasons, it is a loss of talent and potential for Chiyoda.

    We need to extend the idea of “Diversity & Inclusion” and focus on people within the Company who may 

be struggling to care for someone at home or people who feel disadvantaged in their careers because of their 
gender or other unfair reason. The fi rst step to the goal of true diversity is not just to provide a framework but 
to change our mindset. 

Q

  What can the Change Mindset Task Team achieve?

  I have been part of the Change Mindset Task Team for four 
years now. Through activities including lectures by visiting 
experts and internal discussions, we have offered learning 
opportunities about “Diversity for Chiyoda” to all personnel. 
We believe one way to improve our diversity might be to 
change our working style, by “reforming the way of working 
(hataraki-kata kaikaku)” to improve our Work/Life Balance. We 
hope that with such reforms all employees will achieve a good 
work/life balance of their own regardless of gender, nationality 
and so on, and enhance each individual performance, thereby 
helping us to realize our corporate goals. This is something we 
will be very proud to achieve.

RISK MANAGEMENT

ANNUAL REPORT FY2016

Risk management is the identification of different types of risk within a company (financial, 

operational, etc.) and measures taken to mitigate those risks to an acceptable level. 

CORPORATE RISK MANAGEMENT AT CHIYODA

BUSINESS RISKS

Business risks may signifi cantly impact the Chiyoda Group’s business operations and fi nances. These risks have 

the potential to impact investor decision-making. Recognizing these risks, the Group has implemented risk 

mitigation plans to minimize consequences when such events occur.

The risks below are those we recognize as of the date of the fi scal year ended.

(a)  Changes in the business environment; economic, 

social and political factors

Various factors may require that modifi cations be made to clients’ investment plans, 
project suspension, delay or review. These factors include changes in global 
economic, social and political environments, economic sanctions, changes in home 
country energy policies and commodity prices such as oil, LNG and metal 
resources prices: All the factors may affect the Group earnings. Changes in 
economic, social and political environments for clients, joint venture partners, 
subcontractors, suppliers and service providers could affect the Group’s project 
execution plans, profi tability and, ultimately, its fi nancial strength.The Group 
monitors global economic and social trends for a potential impact on business and 
strives to reduce such risk through rigorous contract negotiations. Due diligence is 
executed for subcontractors, vendors and service providers and remedial action in 
the supply chain is taken if necessary.

(b)  Earthquakes and natural disasters, terrorism, 

wars and other force majeure events

Force Majeure events such as earthquakes, natural disasters, terrorism and wars 
have the potential to materially impact project sites or business locations. 
Disruption issues may include personnel life crisis, delays in equipment and 
materials delivery and/or suspension of fi eld work. The Group puts life and safety 
fi rst and has the Crisis Management Unit, to compile and analyze information to 
prevent human suffering or harm. The Group has established, and is reinforcing, the 
crisis management system, which advocates the employment of professional 
security advisors in the regions requiring particular attention. Additionally, the Group 
maintains the risk management system to rapidly react to various situations and to 
respond to an emergency immediately, including consulting with the clients and/or 
the parties concerned to minimize force majeure risk. The Group has formulated a 
Business Continuity Plan (BCP) for unexpected events including as a massive 
earthquake to act smoothly in the initial stage and execute priority tasks. In that 
way, the Group has been prepared to ensure business continuity by conducting 
emergency response training.

(c)  Fluctuations in equipment and material costs
Under certain contracts, the Group is exposed to material/equipment cost 
fl uctuation risk due to the time difference between plant or material quotation and 
purchase. Specifi cally the price of steel, which constitutes a major part of plant 
construction, could be severely impacted by a rise in commodity prices such as 
coal and iron ore. Future market prices of copper, nickel, aluminum and zinc are 
similarly unpredictable. The Group avoids such risks (or minimizes the impact) by 
diversifying supply sources, placing early orders, maintaining alliances with major 
vendors/suppliers and identifying market trends.

(d)  Possible shortages of construction 
workers/equipment and materials

A project may experience a delay and a cost impact if suffi cient construction labor, 
equipment and materials or other resources required for a project cannot be 
suffi ciently procured. The Group avoids such risk (or minimizes the impact) by 
applying diverse construction methods including modular construction, in the areas 
where materials and/or adequately qualifi ed labor are scarce and by establishing 
communication and collaboration with reliable subcontractors, vendors and 
suppliers. If a plant’s construction is suspended due to labor disputes and the like, 
the Group minimizes risk by taking appropriate action in cooperation with clients 
and the local authorities.

(e)  Plant accidents
Safety risk, the consequences of which could be serious for the Group’s operating 
capability, is inherent in the construction industry. Safety is of paramount 
importance to the Group, reinforced by the maxim “Safety is the Core Value”. 

Through comprehensive Risk Identifi cation and Management procedures, 
reinforced by close collaboration with clients, designers, subcontractors and 
vendors, all the risks are identifi ed at every stage of project delivery, from feasibility 
through design and construction, and measures to negate or mitigate the identifi ed 
risks are implemented.

(f)  Exchange rate fl uctuations
Some construction projects may involve payment settlements (subcontractors, 
vendors and suppliers) in a currency that does not correspond with the currency 
received from the client for the work. In such cases, exchange rate fl uctuations can 
have an impact on earnings. The Group avoids/minimizes exchange rate risk by 
reserving construction payments against such risk in multiple foreign currencies 
and by entering into exchange rate forward contracts.

(g)  Compliance-related risk
The Group’s global operations are required to comply with local laws, acts and 
regulations in the respective countries and regions where its head offi ce, 
subsidiaries, business offi ces and construction execution sites are located, both at 
home and abroad. Penalties or suspicious action resulting from non-compliance 
could have a serious impact on a project’s execution or the business operation of 
the Group.

To prevent and/or minimize such compliance-related risk, the Group runs 
training courses for employees including assembled induction and e-learning. 
Those are intended for them to understand and strictly observe the updated laws, 
acts, regulations or rules related to its business operations including those for 
human rights and anti-bribery. The Group also makes every effort to comprehend 
the present trend of stakeholders including the authorities concerned and clients, 
both at home and abroad. Additionally, the Group has incorporated compliance 
response in its operating processes based on its Code of Conduct by establishing 
a Compliance Committee under the direct control of the Executive Committee and 
the Compliance Committee of the Chiyoda Group under its wing, consisting of 
Group company representatives.

(h)  Information security risk
The Group takes great care in managing information obtained from clients, 
subcontractors, equipment and materials suppliers and other service providers. 
The information is necessary in the performance of its business. The Group also 
possesses confi dential information related to technologies, sales, and other 
businesses. Many core corporate operations and business transactions are 
conducted by making full use of the IT systems at global subsidiaries. The Group 
operations are subject to system failure, information leakage and loss of important 
business information due to infection by computer viruses, external unauthorized 
access and cyber-attacks. The Group, including the main subsidiaries and global 
headquarters, holds an ISMS (Information Security Management System) certifi cate 
and performs competent information security management which includes training, 
auditing, and defensive and minimizing measures under its business continuity 
plan.

(i)  Business investment risk
The Group makes business investment to pursue the growth strategy such as the 
establishment of a new company or the purchase of the existing company to 
construct a new business model. The Group is exposed to several risks, such as 
changes in the business environment, lower earnings obtained than planned, a 
downturn in business and incurring extra costs. Prior to deciding on business 
investment, the Group does assess the feasibility through our standards and rules. 
After making an investment, the Group regularly monitors the progress in the 
business and provide various types of support as necessary, to avoid or minimize 
any loss.

Corporate Risk Management Division

With reference to the rather fresh concept of “Strategic Risk Management,” I should say that, 

at Chiyoda, we ensure that corporate management leaders are able to manage risks and seize 

opportunities and to make strategic decisions in business fi elds of volatility, uncertainty, complexity and 

ambiguity, based on the well-run “Business Risk Management” by all organizations as described below.

Through this one-team approach, Chiyoda strives to create additional shareholder value in 

our continuing challenges.

CHIYODA CORPORATIONCONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FY2016Chiyoda Corporation and Consolidated Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Year Ended March 31, 2017

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions set forth 
in the Japanese Financial Instruments and Exchange Act and its related accounting regulations and in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan ("Japanese GAAP"), which are different in certain respects 
as to the application and disclosure requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards.

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, certain reclassifications and rearrangements have been made to 
the consolidated financial statements issued domestically in order to present them in a form which is more familiar 
to readers outside Japan. In addition, certain reclassifications have been made in the 2016 consolidated financial 
statements to conform to the classifications used in 2017.

The consolidated financial statements are stated in Japanese yen, the currency of the country in which Chiyoda 
Corporation (the "Company") is incorporated and principally operates. The translations of Japanese yen amounts 
into U.S. dollar amounts are included solely for the convenience of readers outside Japan and have been made at the 
rate of ¥112 to $1, the approximate rate of exchange at March 31, 2017. Such translations should not be construed 
as representations that the Japanese yen amounts could be converted into U.S. dollars at that or any other rate.

Japanese yen figures less than a million yen are rounded down to the nearest million, except for per share data.

U.S. dollar figures less than a thousand U.S. dollars are rounded down to the nearest thousand, except for per share 
data.

2.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a. Consolidation—The consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2017, include the accounts of the 

Company and its 30 (30 in 2016) significant subsidiaries (together, the "Group").

Under the control and influence concepts, those companies in which the Company, directly or indirectly, is 
able to exercise control over operations are fully consolidated, and those companies over which the Group has 
the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for by the equity method.

Investments in seven (seven in 2016) associated companies are accounted for by the equity method.

Investments in the remaining unconsolidated subsidiaries and associated companies are stated at cost. If the 
equity method of accounting had been applied to the investments in these companies, the effect on the 
accompanying consolidated financial statements would not be material.

Most of the foreign consolidated subsidiaries have a December 31 year-end, which is different from that of the 
Company. As a result, adjustments have been made for any significant transactions which took place during 
the period between the year-end of these subsidiaries and the year-end of the Company.

The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the net assets of an acquired subsidiary at the date of 
acquisition is amortized over a period of 5 to 20 years.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All material 
unrealized profit included in assets resulting from transactions within the Group is also eliminated.

b. Unification of Accounting Policies Applied to Foreign Subsidiaries for the Consolidated Financial 

Statements—Under Accounting Standards Board of Japan ("ASBJ") Practical Issues Task Force ("PITF")
No. 18, "Practical Solution on Unification of Accounting Policies Applied to Foreign Subsidiaries for the 
Consolidated Financial Statements," the accounting policies and procedures applied to a parent company and
its subsidiaries for similar transactions and events under similar circumstances should in principle be unified 
for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. However, financial statements prepared by foreign 
subsidiaries in accordance with either International Financial Reporting Standards or generally accepted 
accounting principles in the United States of America (Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting 
Standards Codification) tentatively may be used for the consolidation process, except for the following items 
that should be adjusted in the consolidation process so that net income is accounted for in accordance with 
Japanese GAAP, unless they are not material: (a) amortization of goodwill; (b) scheduled amortization of 
actuarial gain or loss of pensions that has been recorded in equity through other comprehensive income;
(c) expensing capitalized development costs of R&D; and (d) cancellation of the fair value model of 
accounting for property, plant and equipment and investment properties and incorporation of the cost model of 
accounting.

c. Unification of Accounting Policies Applied to Foreign Associated Companies for the Equity Method—

ASBJ Statement No. 16, "Accounting Standard for Equity Method of Accounting for Investments," requires 
adjustments to be made to conform the associate's accounting policies for similar transactions and events under 
similar circumstances to those of the parent company when the associate's financial statements are used in 
applying the equity method unless it is impracticable to determine such adjustments. In addition, financial 
statements prepared by foreign associated companies in accordance with either International Financial 
Reporting Standards or generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America tentatively 
may be used in applying the equity method if the following items are adjusted so that net income is accounted 
for in accordance with Japanese GAAP, unless they are not material: (a) amortization of goodwill; 
(b) scheduled amortization of actuarial gain or loss of pensions that has been recorded in equity through other 
comprehensive income; (c) expensing capitalized development costs of R&D; and (d) cancellation of the fair 
value model of accounting for property, plant and equipment and investment properties and incorporation of 
the cost model of accounting.

d. Construction Contracts—Under Japanese GAAP, construction revenue and construction costs are recognized 

by the percentage-of-completion method if the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably. 
When total construction revenue, total construction costs and the stage of completion of the contract at the 
balance sheet date can be reliably measured, the outcome of a construction contract is deemed to be estimated 
reliably. If the outcome of a construction contract cannot be reliably estimated, the completed-contract method 
should be applied. When it is probable that the total construction costs will exceed total construction revenue,
an estimated loss on the contract should be immediately recognized by providing for a loss on such 
construction contracts.

CHIYODA CORPORATIONCONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FY2016Concerning the construction contracts, the Group applies the following accounting methods:

Unbilled costs on contracts, which are accounted for by the completed-contract method, are stated as costs 
of construction contracts in process.

Payments received in excess of costs and estimated earnings on contracts, which are accounted for by the 
percentage-of-completion method, and payments received on the other contracts, are presented as current 
liabilities.

Costs of preparation work for unsuccessful proposals and other projects that are not realized are charged to 
income, as incurred, and are included in cost of revenue.

e. Cash Equivalents—Cash equivalents are short-term investments that are readily convertible into cash and

exposed to insignificant risk of changes in value. Cash equivalents include time deposits, certificates of 
deposit, and commercial paper, all of which mature or become due within three months of the date of 
acquisition.

f.

g.

Short-Term Investments—Short-term investments are time deposits, which will mature three months after the 
date of acquisition. Short-term investments are exposed to insignificant risk of changes in value.

Investment Securities—All marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and are reported 
at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable taxes, reported in a separate component of 
equity. The cost of securities sold is determined based on the moving-average method.

Nonmarketable available-for-sale securities are stated at cost determined by the moving-average method or at 
amortized cost. For other-than-temporary declines in fair value, investment securities are reduced to net 
realizable value by a charge to income.

h.

Jointly Controlled Assets of Joint Venture—The jointly controlled assets of the joint venture consist of jointly 
controlled cash recognized based on the Company's share of the venture.

i.

j.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts—The allowance for doubtful accounts is stated in amounts considered to be 
appropriate based on the Group's past credit loss experience and an evaluation of potential losses in the 
receivables outstanding.

Property, Plant and Equipment—Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed 
by the declining-balance method, except for buildings owned by the Company and structures acquired on or 
after April 1, 2016, that are depreciated using the straight-line method, at rates based on the estimated useful 
lives of the assets. The range of useful lives is from 8 to 57 years for buildings and structures, from 4 to 17 
years for machinery and equipment, and from 4 to 15 years for tools, furniture, and fixtures. Equipment held 
for lease is depreciated by the straight-line method over the respective lease periods.

Pursuant to an amendment to the Corporate Tax Act, the Company adopted ASBJ PITF No. 32, "Practical 
Solution on a change in depreciation method due to Tax Reform 2016," and changed its depreciation method 
for structures acquired on or after April 1, 2016, from the declining-balance method to the straight-line 
method. The effect of this change on profit and loss is immaterial.

k.

Long-Lived Assets—The Group reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in 
circumstance indicate the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. An impairment 
loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or asset group exceeds the sum of the undiscounted future 
cash flows expected to result from the continued use and eventual disposition of the asset or asset group. The 
impairment loss would be measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its 
recoverable amount, which is the higher of the discounted cash flows from the continued use and eventual 
disposition of the asset or the net selling price at disposition.

l.

Software—Software for internal use is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life (five 
years at the maximum).

m. Other Assets—Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization, which is calculated by the 

straight-line method over their estimated useful lives.

n. Allowance for Warranty Costs for Completed Work—The allowance for warranty costs for completed work is 

provided based on past rate experience.

o. Allowance for Losses on Construction Contracts—The allowance for losses on construction contracts is 

provided for an estimated amount of probable losses to be incurred in future years in respect of construction 
projects in progress. When there are losses on completed-contract method applied contracts, the allowance for 
losses on construction contracts is offset against the costs of construction contracts in process in the balance 
sheet.

p.

q.

r.

Provision for Loss on Business of Subsidiaries and Associated Companies—The provision for loss on 
business of subsidiaries and associated companies is provided for an estimated amount of probable losses at 
the end of the fiscal year based on consideration of the financial conditions and business results, etc., of the 
subsidiaries and associated companies.

Provision for Treatment of PCB Waste—Provision for treatment of PCB (Poly Chlorinated Biphenyl) waste 
is provided based on estimated costs of the treatment for PCB products and equipment as well as their 
collection and transportation fees.

Retirement and Pension Plans—The Company and consolidated subsidiaries have funded or unfunded 
defined benefit pension plans and defined contribution pension plans for employees. Certain consolidated 
subsidiaries have defined benefit corporate pension plans or severance lump-sum payment plans, and calculate 
retirement benefit expenses by using the simplified method.

The Company and its domestic consolidated subsidiaries account for the liability for retirement benefits based 
on the projected benefit obligations and plan assets at the balance sheet date. The projected benefit obligations 
are attributed to periods on a benefit formula basis. Actuarial gains and losses are amortized on a straight-line 
basis over 10 years within the average remaining service period.

Actuarial gains and losses that are yet to be recognized in profit or loss are recognized within equity 
(accumulated other comprehensive income), after adjusting for tax effects, are recognized in profit or loss over 
a certain period no longer than the expected average remaining service period of the employees.

CHIYODA CORPORATIONCONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FY2016s.

Asset Retirement Obligations—Under Japanese GAAP, an asset retirement obligation is defined as a legal 
obligation imposed either by law or contract that results from the acquisition, construction, development and 
normal operation of a tangible fixed asset and is associated with the retirement of such tangible fixed asset. 
The asset retirement obligation is recognized as the sum of the discounted cash flows required for the future 
asset retirement and is recorded in the period in which the obligation is incurred if a reasonable estimate can be 
made. If a reasonable estimate of the asset retirement obligation cannot be made in the period the asset 
retirement obligation is incurred, the liability should be recognized when a reasonable estimate of the asset 
retirement obligation can be made. Upon initial recognition of a liability for an asset retirement obligation, an 
asset retirement cost is capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related fixed asset by the amount 
of the liability. The asset retirement cost is subsequently allocated to expense through depreciation over the 
remaining useful life of the asset. Over time, the liability is accreted to its present value each period. Any 
subsequent revisions to the timing or the amount of the original estimate of undiscounted cash flows are 
reflected as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the liability and the capitalized amount of the related asset 
retirement cost.

t.

Research and Development Costs—Research and development costs are charged to income as incurred.

u. Leases—Japanese GAAP require that all finance lease transactions be capitalized by recognizing lease assets 

and lease obligations in the balance sheet.

All other leases are accounted for as operating leases.

v.

Income Taxes—The provision for income taxes is computed based on the pretax income included in the 
consolidated statement of operations. 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 income 
tax rates to the temporary differences.

The Company and its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries file a tax return under the consolidated 
corporate-tax system, which allows companies to base tax payments on the combined profits or losses of the 
parent company and its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries.

w. Foreign Currency Transactions—All short-term and long-term monetary receivables and payables 

denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Japanese yen at the exchange rates at the balance sheet 
date. Foreign exchange gains and losses from translation are recognized in the consolidated statement of 
operations to the extent that they are not hedged by foreign currency forward contracts.

Derivative financial instruments are classified and accounted for as follows:

(1) All derivatives are recognized as either assets or liabilities and measured at fair value, with gains or losses 

recognized in the consolidated statement of operations.

(2) For derivatives used for hedging purposes, if such derivatives qualify for hedge accounting because of 

high correlation and effectiveness between the hedging instruments and the hedged items, gains or losses 
on derivatives are deferred until maturity of the hedged transactions.

Foreign currency forward contracts are utilized to hedge foreign exchange risks. Certain assets and liabilities 
on construction contracts denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the contracted rates if the forward 
contracts qualify for hedge accounting.

Foreign currency deposits are held to hedge foreign exchange risks derived from forecasted purchases of fixed 
assets denominated in foreign currency.

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 is recognized and included in 
interest expense.

z.

Per Share Information—Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income available to common 
shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, retroactively 
adjusted for stock splits.

Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities were exercised or 
converted into common stock. Diluted net income per share of common stock assumes full conversion of the 
outstanding convertible notes and bonds at the beginning of the year (or at the time of issuance) with an 
applicable adjustment for related interest expense, net of tax, and full exercise of outstanding warrants.

Diluted net income per share is not disclosed because there was no potential stock having a dilutive effect for 
the fiscal years ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

Cash dividends per share presented in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations are dividends 
applicable to the respective fiscal years, including dividends to be paid after the end of the year.

3. CHANGES IN PRESENTATION

x. Foreign Currency Financial Statements—Balance sheet accounts of consolidated foreign subsidiaries are 

(Consolidated Balance Sheet)

translated into Japanese yen at the current exchange rate as of the balance sheet date except for equity, which 
is translated at the historical rate. Differences arising from such translation are shown as "Foreign currency 
translation adjustments" under accumulated other comprehensive income in a separate component of equity.
Revenue and expense accounts of consolidated foreign subsidiaries are translated into Japanese yen at the 
current exchange rate as of the balance sheet date.

y. Derivatives and Hedging Activities—The Group uses derivative financial instruments, including foreign 

currency forward contracts and interest swap contracts, as a means of hedging exposure to foreign currency
risks and interest rate risks. The Group does not enter into derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

"Deferred tax assets," included within "Other assets" of the investments and other assets section until the previous 
consolidated fiscal year, is separately stated from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, as it has exceeded 1% of 
the total assets. The prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified in accordance with the 
new presentation.

(Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows)

"Increase (decrease) in deposits received" included within operating activities, which had previously been 
separately presented, is included in "Other" from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017, as its materiality has 
decreased. The prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified in accordance with the new 
presentation.

amount of ¥4,431 million as other expense following a fall in the long term cash flow forecasts resulting from the 
decline in the price of oil. The carrying amount of goodwill was written down to its recoverable amount. The 
recoverable amount was measured at its value in use and the discount rate used for computation of the present value 
of future cash flows was 16.9%.

The Company and consolidated subsidiaries have funded or unfunded defined benefit pension plans and defined 
contribution pension plans for employees.

Under defined benefit corporate pension plans, all of which are funded, employees are entitled to certain lump-sum 
payments or pension payments based on cumulated points which are granted in accordance with years of 
continuous employment, occupational classification and performance evaluation. Under severance lump-sum 
payment plans, employees are entitled to certain lump-sum payments based on salary and service period.

Certain consolidated subsidiaries have defined benefit corporate pension plans or severance lump-sum payment 
plans, and calculate retirement benefit expenses by using the simplified method.

10. EQUITY

Japanese companies are subject to the Companies Act of Japan (the "Companies Act"). The significant provisions 
in the Companies Act that affect financial and accounting matters are summarized below:

Under the Companies Act, companies can pay dividends at any time during the fiscal year in addition to the 
year-end dividend upon resolution at the shareholders' meeting. Additionally, for companies that meet certain 
criteria, an Audit & Supervisory Board may declare dividends (except for dividends-in-kind) at any time 
during the fiscal year if the company has prescribed so in its articles of incorporation. The Board of Directors 
of a company with an audit and supervisory committee (as implemented under the Companies Act effective 
May 1, 2015) may also declare dividends at any time because such company, by its nature, meets the criteria 
under the Companies Act. The Company is organized as a company with an audit and supervisory committee, 
effective June 23, 2016. However, the Company does not meet all the above criteria.

The Companies Act permits companies to distribute dividends in kind (noncash assets) to shareholders subject 
to a certain limitation and additional requirements.

Semiannual interim dividends may also be paid once a year upon resolution by the Board of Directors if the 
articles of incorporation of the company so stipulate. The Companies Act provides certain limitations on the 
amounts available for dividends or the purchase of treasury stock. The limitation is defined as the amount 
available for distribution to the shareholders, but the amount of net assets after dividends must be maintained 
at no less than ¥3 million.

b.

Increases/Decreases and Transfer of Common Stock, Reserve, and Surplus

The Companies Act requires that an amount equal to 10% of dividends must be appropriated as a legal reserve 
(a component of retained earnings) or as additional paid-in capital (a component of capital surplus), depending 
on the equity account charged upon the payment of such dividends, until the aggregate amount of legal reserve 
and additional paid-in capital equals 25% of the common stock. Under the Companies Act, the total amount of 
additional paid-in capital and legal reserve may be reversed without limitation. The Companies Act also 
provides that common stock, legal reserve, additional paid-in capital, other capital surplus, and retained 
earnings can be transferred among the accounts within equity under certain conditions upon resolution of the 
shareholders.

c.

Treasury Stock and Treasury Stock Acquisition Rights

The Companies Act also provides for companies to purchase treasury stock and dispose of such treasury stock 
by resolution of the Board of Directors. The amount of treasury stock purchased cannot exceed the amount 
available for distribution to the shareholders, which is determined by a specific formula.

Under the Companies Act, stock acquisition rights are presented as a separate component of equity.

The Companies Act also provides that companies can purchase both treasury stock acquisition rights and 
treasury stock. Such treasury stock acquisition rights are presented as a separate component of equity or 
deducted directly from stock acquisition rights.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RELATED DISCLOSURES

(1) Group Policy for Financial Instruments

The Group uses financial instruments for cash surpluses, if any, invested in low-risk financial assets, such as 
commercial paper. For operating capital, the Group uses bank loans. Derivatives are used, not for speculative 
purposes, but to manage exposure to the market risk of fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates and 
interest rates.

- 23 -

- 24 -

23

24

CHIYODA CORPORATIONCONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FY2016(2) Nature and Extent of Risks Arising from Financial Instruments

Receivables, such as trade notes and trade accounts, are exposed to customer credit risk. Although receivables 
in foreign currencies are exposed to the market risk of fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, the 
position, net of payables in foreign currencies, is hedged by using foreign currency forward contracts.

Cash equivalents include commercial paper, which have short maturities and are used for cash surpluses.

Foreign currency forward contracts are controlled under internal guidelines. The position related to particular 
construction contracts is identified and is reviewed monthly. Reconciliation of the transaction and balances 
with customers' confirmation replies is made, and the transactions related to foreign currency forward 
contracts are executed and accounted for under internal guidelines.

Marketable and investment securities are managed by monitoring the market values and financial position of 
issuers on a regular basis. The Group assesses the stock price risk quantitatively so as to account for significant 
declines in market value as impairment losses.

Short-term investments include time deposits, which will mature three months after the date of acquisition. 
Both commercial paper and time deposits are exposed to default risk of the issuing company.

Liquidity risk management

Investment securities are equity securities related to the business, which the Group operates. Marketable 
securities are exposed to the risk of fluctuations in stock prices.

Payment terms of payables, such as trade notes and trade accounts, are generally less than one year. Although 
payables in foreign currencies are exposed to the market risk of fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, 
those risks are netted against the balance of receivables denominated in the same foreign currency as noted 
above.

Bank loans are used for operating capital. Although they are exposed to the market risks from changes in 
interest rates, the risk is hedged by using interest rate swap contracts.

Derivatives are foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swap contracts, which are used to manage 
exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates of receivables and payables, and 
from changes in interest rates, respectively. Please see Notes 2.y and 15 for more details about derivatives.

(3) Risk Management for Financial Instruments

Credit risk management

Credit risk is the risk of economic loss arising from a counterparty's failure to repay or service debt according 
to the contractual terms. The Group manages its credit risk from receivables on the basis of internal guidelines, 
which include monitoring of payment terms and balances of major customers to identify the default risk of 
customers at an early stage.

Commercial paper and time deposits are exposed to insignificant default risk because transactions are limited 
to companies with high credit ratings.

With respect to foreign currency forward contracts, the Group limits the counterparties to those derivatives to 
major financial institutions that can bear losses arising from credit risk.

Market risk management (risk of foreign exchange and interest rates)

Foreign currency trade receivables and payables are exposed to market risk resulting from fluctuations in 
foreign currency exchange rates. Such foreign exchange risk is hedged principally with foreign currency 
forward contracts.

Interest expense associated with long-term debts is exposed to market risk resulting from changes in interest 
rates. Such risk is hedged by interest rate swap contracts.

Liquidity risk comprises the risk that the Group cannot meet its contractual obligations in full on their maturity 
dates. The Group manages its liquidity risk by holding adequate volumes of liquid assets along with timely 
adequate financial planning.

(4) Fair Values of Financial Instruments

Fair values of financial instruments are based on quoted prices in active markets. If a quoted price is not 
available, another rational valuation technique is used instead. Also, please see Note 15 for the details of fair 
value for derivatives.

borrowed. The fair value of floating rate loans, which are subject to a specific method for interest rate 
swaps, is calculated by discounting total principal and interest payments, which are handled together with 
interest rate swaps, to present value using a discount rate equal to the rate that would be charged if the 
loan was newly borrowed.

Under Japanese accounting standards, an entity is required to report financial and descriptive information about its 
reportable segments. Reportable segments are operating segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet 
specified criteria. Operating segments are components of an entity about which separate financial information is 
available and such information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to 
allocate resources and in assessing performance. Generally, segment information is required to be reported on the 
same basis as is used internally for evaluating operating segment performance and deciding how to allocate 
resources to operating segments.

(1) Description of Reportable Segments

The Group's reportable segments are those for which separate financial information is available and regular 
evaluation by the Company's management is being performed in order to decide how resources are allocated 
within the Group. The Group globally provides "Engineering" services, including planning, engineering, 
construction, procurement, commissioning, and maintenance, adapting the most appropriate functions of each 
related company.

(2) Methods of Measurement for the Amounts of Sales, Profit (Loss), Assets, Liabilities, and Other Items for 

Each Reportable Segment

The accounting policies of each reportable segment are consistent with those disclosed in Note 2, "Summary 
of Significant Accounting Policies."

The profit in reporting segments is based on the operating income. Intersegment income and transfers are 
measured at the quoted market price.
