REASON FOR THE SUBMISSION OF AMENDMENT REPORT ON ANNUAL SECURITIES REPORT

Because the full text was amended, the text is not underlined 

(1) Background
On  February  12,  2015,  Toshiba  Corporation  (the  “Company”)  received  a  report  order  from  the  Securities  and  Exchange 
Surveillance  Commission  pursuant  to  Article  26  of  the  Financial  Instruments  and  Exchange  Act  and  was  subject  to  a 
disclosure inspection with respect to some projects in which the percentage-of-completion of accounting method was 
used, among others. Following that, in the course of a self-investigation by the Company to deal with the issues identified 
relating to those projects in the disclosure inspection, it was noted that some matters require investigation in respect of 
accounting treatments for some infrastructure projects of the Company in which the percentage-of-completion method 
was used during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014. Based on this situation, it was decided that the Special Investigation 
Committee consisting of the Company’s internal committee members as well as external attorneys-at-law and certified 
public  accountants  would  be  established  as  of  April  3,  2015,  and  the  Company  would  of  its  own  accord  implement  an 
investigation of the relevant facts. Then the Special Investigation Committee found that, the total amount of the contract 
cost  was  underestimated  and  Contract  Losses  (including  provisions  for  contract  losses)  were  not  recorded  in  a  timely 
manner, and also, issues requiring further investigation were identified.
  Consequently,  the  Company  decided  to  shift  to  the  framework  of  investigation  to  an  Independent  Investigation 
Committee comprising independent and impartial external experts who did not have any interests in the Company as of 
May 8, 2015. The scope of the investigation delegated to the Independent Investigation Committee covers four matters: 
(1) accounting treatments in relation to projects in which the percentage-of-completion method was used; (2) accounting 
treatments in relation to recording of operating expenses in the Visual Products Business; (3) accounting treatments in 
relation to the valuation of inventory in the Semiconductor Business, mainly discrete and system LSIs; and (4) accounting 
treatments in relation to parts transactions, etc. in the PC Business. The Company received an investigation report from 
the Independent Investigation Committee on July 20, 2015.

In  parallel  with  such  efforts,  the  Company  and  all  its  consolidated  subsidiaries  as  of  March  31,  2015  underwent  self-
checks with respect to whether or not there was any issue that was not compliant with the accounting standards, internal 
regulations and other rules or any other inappropriate accounting treatment, and whether or not the Company and its 
consolidated  subsidiaries  were  aware  of  any  such  issue  or  inappropriate  accounting  treatment,  etc.  including  minor 
matters at each quarter-end in the period between the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and the fiscal year ended March 
31, 2015 and during the period between April 1, 2015 and May 31, 2015.
  The Company resolved at a meeting of the Board of Directors on September 7, 2015, to amend the annual securities 
reports for fiscal years from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 and quarterly 
securities reports for quarters in the period from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 to the fiscal year ended March 31, 
2015,  to  reflect  the  correction  of  the  events  identified  in  the  investigation  report  of  the  Independent  Investigation 
Committee stated above and the internal self-checks and the correction of other issues that had not been corrected due 
to a materiality viewpoint.

In  line  with  the  amendment,  data  in  the  consolidated  financial  statements  were  also  reclassified  for  disclosure  in 

connection with discontinued operations. The overview of the corrections is stated below.

(2) Overview
Restatement for the accounting treatment under the percentage-of-completion method
As the result of the above investigations, it was found that in certain infrastructure projects in which the percentage-of-
completion of accounting method was used, there were cases where the estimated total cost was not calculated based 
on the latest information on incurred expenses, where provisions for contract losses were not recorded at the time when 
generation of losses became evident, and where the estimated total cost was calculated in anticipation of cost reductions 
which remained unsubstantiated. The accounting treatments for these projects were corrected.

Restatement for the accounting treatment in relation to recording operating expenses in the Visual Products Business
As the result of the above investigations, it was found that in the Visual Products Business, there were cases where some 
expenses were not recorded as expenses using the accrual-based method, where profits that should not be realized were 
recognized by making use of transactions between consolidated group companies, and where discounts in the purchase 
prices  were  recognized,  for  example  by  reflecting  adjustment  or  increase  of  the  procurement  prices  for  the  following 
periods, even if cost was not actually reduced. The accounting treatments for these cases were corrected.

02 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2012

 
 
Restatement for the accounting treatment in the parts transactions in the PC Business
As  the  result  of  the  above  investigations,  it  was  found  that  in  the  PC  Business,  there  were  cases  where  inappropriate 
profits were recognized in each fiscal period for parts transactions with manufacturing subcontractors, as well as cases 
where some expenses were not recorded as expenses using the accrual-based method and where profits that should not 
be  realized  were  recognized  by  making  use  of  transactions  between  consolidated  group  companies.  The  accounting 
treatments for these transactions were corrected.

Restatement for the accounting treatment in relation to valuation of inventory in the Semiconductor Business
As  the  result  of  the  above  investigations,  it  was  found  that  in  the  Semiconductor  Business,  there  were  cases  where 
valuation losses for work-in-progress inventories, and others were not recognized until the time of actual disposal of the 
inventories,  and  where  the  book  values  of  term-end  intermediate  products  and  term-end  completed  products  were 
overstated due to the lack of consistency  between the front-end  and back-end for revision  of  the standard cost in the 
standard  cost  accounting,  and  consequently  cost  of  goods  sold  was  understated.  The  accounting  treatments  for  these 
cases were corrected.

Restatement for the account treatment for events identified in self-check and others
The Company corrected the account treatments for events identified in the above self-check and other matters that had 
not been corrected from the standpoint of materiality.

Additional recognition of impairment losses and resulting adjustment to depreciation 
Incidental  with  the  above  correction  of  accounting  treatments,  the  Company  recognized  impairment  losses  on  fixed 
assets  and  made  a  correction  of  the  recognition  timing  thereof  and  the  resulting  adjustment  to  depreciation  for  the 
Visual Products Business, PC Business, discrete and system LSIs businesses of the Semiconductor Business.

Adjustments to income taxes
Due to a change in temporary differences resulting from the above correction of accounting treatments for prior years, 
the Company made adjustments to deferred tax assets and liabilities and reviewed valuation allowances.

Due to these corrections to financial results, the Company needed to make amendments to part of the annual securities 
report for the 173rd Fiscal Period from April 1, 2011 to March 31, 2012, which was submitted as of June 22, 2012, and there 
were also matters to be corrected in part of other information described therein. Therefore, the Company has submitted 
the  amendment  report  on  the  annual  securities  report  pursuant  to  the  provision  of  Article  24-2,  paragraph  1  of  the 
Financial Instruments and Exchange Act.
  The amended consolidated financial statements were audited by Ernst & Young ShinNihon LLC, and the audit report of 
the independent auditors has been attached hereto.

The information provided is about the status as of the submission date of the original annual securities report in June 22, 
2012 before correction for restatements in September 7, 2015.

Notes:  1)  Operating income (loss) is derived by deducting the cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses from net sales, and reported as a measurement of segment profit or loss.

 This result is regularly reviewed to support decision-making in allocation of resources and to assess performance. Certain operating expenses such as restructuring charges and gains (losses) from 
the sale or disposition of fixed assets are not included in it.

2)  Basic  earnings  (loss)  per  share  attributable  to  shareholders  of  the  Company  (EPS)  are  computed  based  on  the  weighted-average  number  of  shares  of  common  stock  outstanding  during  each 

period.
 Diluted EPS assumes the dilution that could occur if convertible bonds were converted or stock acquisition rights were exercised to issue common stock, unless their inclusion would have an 
antidilutive effect.

3)  The  Mobile  Broadcasting  business  and  the  Mobile  Phone  business  have  been  classified  as  discontinued  operations  in  the  consolidated  accounts  in  accordance  with  Accounting  Standards 
Codification  No.205-20,  “Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations”.  Performance  of  these  businesses  is  excluded  from  consolidated  net  sales,  operating  income  (loss),  and 
income (loss) from continuing operations, before income taxes and noncontrolling interests.

4)  Beginning with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, the Company adopted ASC No.810 “Consolidation”. Prior-period data for the fiscal years ended from March 31, 2008 through 2009 has been 

reclassified to conform with the current classification.

5)  Data for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 and subsequent years has been amended following corrections to the consolidated financial statements. In addition, some prior-period data relating 

to the discontinued operations has been reclassified.

SCOPE OF CONSOLIDATION

As  of  the  end  of  March  2012,  Toshiba  Group  (“the  Group”)  comprised  Toshiba  Corporation  (“the  Company”)  and  554 
consolidated subsidiaries and its principal operations were in the Digital Products, Electronic Devices, Social Infrastructure 
and Home Appliances business domains.
  Of  the  consolidated  subsidiaries,  96  were  involved  in  Digital  Products,  47  in  Electronic  Devices,  289  in  Social 
Infrastructure, 54 in Home Appliances and 68 in Others.
  The number of consolidated subsidiaries was 56 more than at the end of March 2011. 196 affiliates were accounted for 
by the equity method as of the end of March 2012.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET SALES AND INCOME (LOSS)
While  the  emerging  economies,  including  China  and  India,  continued  to  expand  and  the  United  States  saw  gradual 
recovery,  the  global  economy  remained  in  severe  circumstances  due  to  financial  uncertainties  in  some  European 
countries, fiscal austerity and concerns about the financial system. Although the global economy is expected to continue 
to recover gradually, anxieties remain about the rise in crude oil prices and high levels of unemployment in the United 
States and some European countries, and sovereign risk in some European countries.
  The  Japanese  economy  remained  in  a  severe  condition  due  to  the  impacts  of  the  Great  East  Japan  Earthquake, 
exposure to sovereign risk in some European countries and the impact of sharp yen appreciation. There are also concerns 
about crude oil prices and shortages of power generation capacity.

In these conditions, the Group, aiming to become an even stronger, a world-leading diversified electric and electronics 
company  by  overcoming  demanding  business  conditions,  strongly  promoted  global  business  deployment  and  the 
transformation  of  its  business  structure  through  strategic  investments  and  acquisitions  to  build  new  business 
foundations,  with  a  close  focus  on  growth  businesses,  including  the  integrated  Storage  Products  business,  the  Smart 
Community  business  and  the  Healthcare  business.  The  Group  also  steadily  advanced  structural  reforms,  resulting  in 
improvement to its cost structure, the reorganization and consolidation of domestic and overseas facilities, expansion of 
overseas procurement and production, in order to establish a business structure resistant to rapid business fluctuations 
and exchange rate fluctuations.
  The Company’s consolidated net sales for FY2011 were 5,996.4 billion yen ($73,127.0 million), a decrease of 267.6 billion 
yen  against  the  previous  year.  Although  the  Social  Infrastructure  segment  saw  higher  sales,  overall  sales  were  lower, 
mainly due to sales decreases in the Digital Products and Electronic Devices segments, reflecting the impacts of sharp 
yen appreciation, the Great East Japan Earthquake, the floods in Thailand and market downturns. Consolidated operating 
income (loss) was 114.9 billion yen ($1,401.2 million), a decrease of 129.6 billion yen. Both the Electronic Devices segment 
and the Social Infrastructure segment saw decreases, and the Digital Products segment also saw deterioration. Income 
(Loss)  from  continuing  operations,  before  income  taxes  and  noncontrolling  interests  decreased  by  140.4  billion  yen  to 
61.4 billion yen ($749.1 million). Net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of the Company decreased by 155.1 billion 
yen to 3.2 billion yen ($39.0 million), mainly reflecting the impact of temporary increase of tax expenses due to a revision 
of a section of the Corporation Tax Act in Japan.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
Following are the key performance indicators (“KPIs”) that the Management of the Group uses in managing its business.
  Net sales and operating income are basic indicators to measure the business results of the Group. Operating income is 
regularly reviewed to support decision-making in allocations of resources and to assess performance. Operating income 
ratio  (ratio  of  operating  income  to  net  sales)  is  also  KPIs.  To  assess  financial  position  of  the  Group,  the  Management 
emphasizes  shareholders'  equity  ratio  (ratio  of  equity  attributable  to  shareholders  of  the  Company  to  total  assets)  and 
debt-to-equity  ratio.  Investments  including  capital  expenditure  and  investments  &  loans  for  M&A  and  R&D  activity  are 
indispensable  for  growth  of  the  Group  and  accordingly  total  investments  and  R&D  expenditure  are  KPIs.  To  measure 
efficiency  of  investments  and  business  results,  the  Management  uses  ROI  (return  on  investment)  and  ROE  (return  on 
equity), respectively.

Notes:  1)  Operating  income  is  derived  by  deducting  the  cost  of  sales  and  selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses  from  net  sales.  This  result  is  regularly  reviewed  to  support  decision-making  in 

allocations of resources and to assess performance. Certain operating expenses such as restructuring charges and gains (losses) from the sale or disposition of fixed assets are not included in it.

2)  ROE is net income attributable to shareholders of the Company divided by equity attributable to shareholders of the Company.
3)  Total  investments  including  capital  expenditure  and  investments  and  loans  for  M&A  are  on  an  ordering  amount  basis.  The  amount  of  investments  for  PPE  includes  the  Group's  portion  in  the 

investments made by Flash Forward, LLC etc., which are companies accounted for by the equity method.

4) ROI is operating income divided by total equity plus total debts.

The Company's consolidated net sales for FY2011 were 5,996.4 billion yen (US$73,127.0 million), a decrease of 267.6 billion 
yen  against  the  previous  year.  Although  the  Social  Infrastructure  segment  saw  higher  sales,  overall  sales  were  lower, 
mainly due to sales decreases in the Digital Products and Electronic Devices segments, reflecting the impacts of sharp 
yen appreciation, the Great East Japan Earthquake, the floods in Thailand and market downturns. Consolidated operating 
income  (loss)  was  114.9  billion  yen  (US$1,401.2  million),  a  decrease  of  129.6  billion  yen.  Both  the  Electronic  Devices 
segment and the Social Infrastructure segment saw decreases, and the Digital Products segment saw deterioration. This 
resulted in a decreased operating income ratio and ROE, 1.9% and 0.4%, respectively. Also, ROI decreased by 5.9 points to 
5.1%.
  Shareholders’  equity,  or  equity  attributable  to  the  shareholders  of  the  Company,  was  718.7  billion  yen  (US$8,764.2 
million), a decrease of 75.2 billion yen from the end of March 2011. There was a decrease of 45.9 billion yen in accumulated 
other comprehensive loss, reflecting impacts from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and a downturn in stock market 
prices and the payment of a dividend to shareholders, but net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of the Company 
stood at a positive 3.2 billion yen.
  Total interest-bearing debt increased by 152.0 billion yen from the end of March 2011 to 1,235.8 billion yen (US$15,070.3 
million).
  As a result of the total assets increase resulting from strategic investments, the shareholders’ equity ratio at the end of 
March 2012 was 12.7%, a 2.1-point decline from the end of March 2011, and the debt-to-equity ratio at the end of March 
2012 was 172%, a 35-point increase from the end of March 2011.
  The  Group  strongly  promotes  capital  expenditure  and  investments  &  loans.  The  Group  sets  “Shiftable  funds”,  which 
enables  the  Company  to  make  speedy  and  flexible  decisions  of  investments  in  response  to  change  of  business 
environment,  and  executes  strategic  investments.  In  FY  2011,  the  Group  strongly  promoted  strategic  investments 
including acquisition of Landis+Gyr AG (“L+G”) for enhancement of global competitiveness and future growth. As a result, 
the  Group  increased  total  investments,  including  capital  expenditure  and  investments  &  loans  for  M&A,  from  previous 
year to 271.9 billion yen.

DIVIDEND
The Company, while giving full consideration to such factors as the strategic investments necessary to secure medium- to 
long-term growth, seeks to achieve continuous increases in its actual dividend payments, in line with a payout ratio in the 
region of 30 percent, on a consolidated basis.
  The Company has decided to pay both an interim dividend and a year-end dividend. The Company paid 4.0 yen per 
share as the interim dividend and the year-end dividend has been set at 4.0 yen per share. As a result, the annual dividend 
for FY 2011 will be 8.0 yen per share, 3 yen increase per share from the previous year.
  The Company will carefully examine and decide on the dividend plan for the next term, FY2012, in light of the Group’s 
financial position, strategic investment plans and other factors. The Company will announce the dividend for FY2012 as 
soon as it is determined.

DIGITAL PRODUCTS
The Digital Products segment saw overall sales decrease by 251.6 billion yen to 1,666.6 billion yen ($20,323.8 million). The 
Visual Products business, which includes TVs, saw sales decrease due to significant decrease in sales in Japan on lower 
unit sales following the completion of the transition to terrestrial digital broadcasting and the expiration of the eco-point 
stimulus program in Japan and on price declines. The PC business also recorded a decrease in sales.
  Overall segment operating income (loss) deteriorated by 75.3 billion yen to -40.4 billion yen ($-493.2 million). The PC 
business  recorded  deteriorated  operating  income.  The  Visual  Products  business  also  saw  deterioration  in  operating 
income (loss) on significantly lower unit sales and the impact of price declines in Japan.

ELECTRONIC DEVICES
The Electronic Devices segment saw overall sales decrease by  119.7 billion yen to 1,510.3 billion yen ($18,418.8 million). 
The Storage Products business saw sales rise on a healthy performance centered on the HDDs, but the Semiconductor 
business saw a decrease in sales due to sharp yen appreciation, the floods in Thailand, price declines in Memories and a 
fall-off in demand for Discretes and System LSIs. The LCD business also saw lower sales, largely attributable to the FY2010 
sale of AFPD Pte., Ltd., an overseas subsidiary that manufactured LCDs for PCs, as a part of business restructuring.
  Overall  segment  operating  income  decreased  by  39.9  billion  yen  to  29.0  billion  yen  ($354.0  million).  The  Storage 
Products  business  recorded  a  healthy  performance  centered  on  the  HDDs  and  the  LCD  business  recorded  higher 
operating  income  reflecting  progress  in  business  restructuring.  The  Semiconductor  business  saw  deterioration  in 
operating income on lower demand for Discretes and System LSIs, yen appreciation and the floods in Thailand, despite 
the  positive  impact  of  restructuring  and  cost  reductions  and  although  Memories  recorded  a  solid  performance  on 
increased unit sales.

SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE
The Social Infrastructure segment saw overall sales increase by 141.9 billion yen to 2,412.4 billion yen ($29,419.0 million). 
The  Power  Systems  and  Industrial  Systems  business  recorded  higher  sales,  mainly  on  a  healthy  performance  in  the 
Thermal  &  Hydro  Power  Systems  and  the  positive  effect  contributed  by  the  acquisition  of  Landis+Gyr  AG  ("L+G").  The 
Elevator and Building Systems business also saw higher sales.
  Overall segment operating income decreased by 12.5 billion yen to 116.3 billion yen ($1,418.0 million). Although the IT 
Solutions  business  saw  higher  operating  income,  the  Power  Systems  and  Industrial  Systems  business  recorded  a  lower 
operating income.

Management's Discussion and Analysis

HOME APPLIANCES
The Home Appliances segment saw overall sales decrease by 23.0 billion yen to 576.8 billion yen ($7,033.5 million). The 
Lighting  Systems  business  recorded  a  healthy  performance,  mainly  on  LEDs,  stimulated  by  concerns  to  save  power. 
However, the White Goods business saw lower unit sales as a result of the floods in Thailand and the expiration of Japan’s 
eco-point stimulus program.
  Overall  segment  operating  income  decreased  by  3.2  billion  yen  to  5.7  billion  yen  ($69.2  million).  Even  though  the 
Lighting Systems business recorded a strong performance centered on LEDs, the White Goods business felt the impact of 
lower sales.

OTHERS
Others saw sales decrease by 8.2 billion yen to 326.9 billion yen ($3,987.5 million) while its operating income improved by 
0.8 billion yen to 2.8 billion yen ($34.5 million).

The Company's Consolidated Financial Statements are based on U.S. GAAP.
  Operating income (loss) is derived by deducting the cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses from 
net sales, and reported as a measurement of segment profit or loss. This result is regularly reviewed to support decision-
making in allocations of resources and to assess performance. Certain operating expenses such as restructuring charges 
and gains (losses) from the sale or disposition of fixed assets are not included in it.
  Mobile  Broadcasting  Corporation  and  the  Mobile  Phone  business  have  been  classified  as  discontinued  operations  in 
the  consolidated  accounts  in  accordance  with  Accounting  Standards  Codification  No.205-20,  “Presentation  of  Financial

CASH FLOWS

In the fiscal year under review, net cash provided by operating activities amounted to 337.5 billion yen, a decrease of 34.1 
billion yen from net cash provided by operating activities of 371.6 billion yen in the previous fiscal year, due to a decrease 
of net income attributable to shareholders of the Company.
  Net cash used in investing activities amounted to 377.2 billion yen, an increase of 162.5 billion yen from 214.7 billion yen 
in  the  previous  fiscal  year.  This  was  mainly  due  to  an  increase  in  expenditure  for  strategic  investment  aiming  to 
strengthen global competitiveness including the acquisition of L+G.
  As  a  result  of  the  foregoing,  free  cash  flow  amounted  to  -39.7  billion  yen,  a  decrease  of  196.6  billion  yen  from  156.9 
billion yen in the previous fiscal year.
  Net cash used in financing activities amounted to 2.7 billion yen, a decrease of 149.5 billion yen from 152.2 billion yen of 
net cash used in financing activities in the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to an increase of proceeds from debt 
for acquisition of L+G.
  The effect of exchange rate changes was to decrease cash by 2.1 billion yen. Cash and cash equivalents at the end of 
the fiscal year declined by 44.5 billion yen, from 258.8 billion yen of the end of the previous fiscal year to 214.3 billion yen.

In December 2011, The Shaw Group Inc. announced that its put options to sell to the Group all or a part of its stake in the

RISK FACTORS RELATING THE GROUP AND ITS BUSINESS

The business areas of energy and electronics, the Group's main business areas, require highly advanced technology for 
their operation. At the same time, the Group faces fierce global competition.Therefore, appropriate risk management is 
indispensable.  Major  risk  factors  related  to  the  Group  recognized  by  the  Company  are  described  below.  The  actual 
occurrence of any of those risk factors may adversely affect the Group's operating results and financial condition.
  The risks described below are identified by the Group based on information available to the Group as of June 22, 2012 
(the date of the filing of the Annual Securities Report) and involve inherent uncertainties, and, therefore, the actual results 
may differ. The Group recognizes these risks and makes every effort to avoid the occurrence of these risks and minimize 
any impact from them when they occur, by maintaining the proper risk management.

1. Risks related to management policy
(1) Strategic concentrated investment
In response to the issues that the current global economy faces, such as the increase in demand for energy or the rise in 
the price of resources, which are associated with the growth and expansion of emerging economies, and mass capacity 
growth of the information transmission and/or storage and the ensuring of the information security, the Group proposes 
a comprehensive solution through the construction of smart communities, by combining and integrating effectively the 
respective  technologies  in  which  the  Group  has  an  advantage.  In  addition,  the  Group  makes  strategic  concentrated 
investment in the categories of total energy innovation, such as power generation systems, renewable and new energy, 
power electronics/EV and home solutions, and total storage innovation, such as HDD/SSD, NAND flash memory, health 
care solutions, retail solutions and digital products solutions. In areas such as System LSIs, the Group is also restructuring 
and selectively allocating resources. While it is essential to allocate limited management resources to high growth areas 
or areas in which the Group enjoys competitiveness, in order to secure and maintain the Group's advantages, the areas in 
which  the  Group  makes  concentrated  investments  may  not  grow  as  anticipated,  the  Group  may  not  maintain  or 
strengthen its competitive power in such areas, or the relevant investments may not fully generate the anticipated level 
of profit. In order to avoid such risks, the Group is conscious of capital costs and of the need to conduct careful selection 
of  investment  items  and  to  enhance  progress  management.  Alongside  these  efforts,  the  Group  also  aims  to  achieve 
growth through allocation of strategic resources and to reinforce its financial base, by means of thorough implementation 
of comprehensive management of all relevant investments that reflect the nature of each individual business. Further to 
this, the Group also makes every effort to utilize external resources through strategic business alliances where necessary.

(2) Success of strategic business alliances and acquisitions
The  Group  actively  promotes  business  alliances  with  other  companies,  including  the  formation  of  joint  ventures  and 
acquisitions,  in  order  to  grow  new  businesses  in  research  and  development,  production,  marketing  and  various  other 
areas. If the Group has any disagreement with its partner in a business alliance or an acquisition in respect of financing, 
technological management, product development, management strategies or otherwise, such business alliance may be 
terminated or such acquisition may not have the expected effects. In addition, the Group's operating results and financial 
condition  may  be  adversely  affected  by  additional  capital  expenditures  and  provision  of  guaranties  to  meet  the 
obligations for such partnership business that may be incurred due to the deterioration of the financial condition of the 
partner, as well as for other reasons. Based on these assumptions, the Group pays careful attention to optimizing business 
formation to secure correspondence to the nature of the relevant business.

(3) Business structure reformation
The  Group  as  a  whole  is  taking  measures  to  reform  its  business  structure,  in  order  to  continue  and  deepen  the 
establishment, through self-transformation, of the business quality by which it can ensure a stable profit, not susceptible 
to a changing environment, and there is a possibility that the Group will incur expenses for business structure reform in 
this connection. Although there is a possibility that the Group's operating results or financial condition may be affected in 
the event of the failure of such program to produce the expected results, the Group has reduced the accumulated total 
fixed  costs  for  3  years  in  the  amount  by  1,500  billion  yen,  and,  in  addition  to  developing  resistance  to  exchange  rate 
fluctuations  mainly  by  expansion  of  overseas  production/overseas  procurement,  the  Group  has  realized  a  substantial 
reduction in costs by promoting the unification of design, manufacturing and procurement.

(4) Measure for defense against hostile takeover
The Company has introduced a plan outlining countermeasures that may be taken against any large-scale acquisitions of 
the Company's shares (the “Takeover Defense Measures”). If an entity making a large-scale acquisition of the Company's 
shares  does  not  comply  with  the  procedures  under  the  Takeover  Defense  Measures,  the  Company  will  counteract  by 
making  a  gratis  allotment  of  stock  acquisition  rights  (shinkabu  yoyakuken)  under  the  Takeover  Defense  Measures. 
Although such Takeover Defense Measures were introduced for the purpose of protecting and enhancing the corporate 
value of the Company and the common interests of its shareholders, they may limit the opportunities for the shareholders 
of the Company to sell their shares to hostile acquirers.

Management's Discussion and Analysis

2. Risks related to financial condition, results of operations and cash flow
(1) Business environment of the Digital Products business
The market for the Digital Products business is intensely competitive, with many companies manufacturing and selling 
products  similar  to  those  offered  by  the  Group.  Additionally,  this  business  is  significantly  affected  by  exchange  rate 
fluctuations,  economic  fluctuations  and  consumer  spending  trends,  and  decreases  in  demand  across  the  market  may 
cause  declines  in  product  prices.  In  times  of  rapid  increases  in  demand,  the  Group's  profit  may  be  reduced  due  to  the 
need to purchase costly parts and components, and a shortage of these parts and components may hinder the Group's 
ability  to  supply  products  to  the  market  in  a  timely  manner.  The  Group  makes  efforts  to  monitor  the  latest  trends  in 
market demand in order to better respond to changes in supply and demand conditions, as well as to better manage its 
production, procurement, sales and inventory. At the same time, the Group makes efforts to minimize risks and reduce 
costs  in  connection  with  the  procurement  of  parts  and  components  by  promoting  package  procurement  measures 
comprehensive procurement on a Group-wide basis. The Group also makes every effort to minimize the potential impact 
of the market volatility by undertaking regional strategies (such as with respect to the emerging markets, including China, 
that  have  relatively  high  economic  growth  rates)  to  promote  business  expansion.  However,  any  rapid  fluctuation  in 
demand  may  result  in  price  erosion  or  increases  in  prices  of  parts  and  components,  which  may  adversely  affect  the 
Group's financial results with respect to this business.
  The  Visual  Products  business,  including  TVs,  is  under  the  influence  of  a  decrease  in  sales  volume  in  a  larger  amount 
than  expected  after  completion  of  the  shift  to  digital  terrestrial  broadcasting  in  Japan  and  the  drastic  decline  in  sales 
price. In response to these issues, the Group is addressing the reduced volume management, through the termination of 
domestic production, expansion of outsourced production, reduction of model numbers and number of panels. Also, the 
PC business is under the influence of the slowdown in demand centered around developed countries and competition 
with other digital products.
  However, because the growth in the emerging markets centered around Asia is supposed to remain strong, in addition 
to continuous development of the local fit products based on consideration of characteristics of each region, centering 
on the emerging markets, the Group plans to work on the sales of the high-value added products created by mobilized 
technologies  for  visual  products  and  PC,  and  in  addition,  the  Group  plans  to  work  on  commercialization  of  various 
services  including  the  digital  book  store  called  “BookPlace,”  which  was  opened  in  April  2011,  to  aim  at  expansion  of 
domestic and international sales of both of hardware and services.

(2) Business environment of the Electronic Devices business
The market for the Electronic Devices business is highly cyclical, depending on demand, and intensely competitive, with 
many companies, mainly in overseas markets, manufacturing and selling products similar to those offered by the Group. 
The  results  of  this  business  tend  to  change  with  economic  fluctuations  and,  in  particular,  to  be  heavily  affected  by 
exchange rate fluctuations. Unforeseen market changes and corresponding changes in demand at the time of production 
may result in a mismatch between the Management's Discussion and Analysis production of particular products based on 
the  sales  volume  initially  expected  and  the  actual  demand  for  such  products  or  cause  the  business  to  be  adversely 
affected  by  a  decrease  in  product  unit  prices  due  to  oversupply.  In  particular,  the  price  for  NAND  flash  memory,  the 
Group's major product in this business, may undergo rapid change, and System LSIs and other semiconductor products 
also face uncertain future market trends, in spite of gradual recovery in the consumer market for digital products that use 
semiconductors.  The  movement  of  the  consumer  market  or  semiconductor  heavy  users  may  influence  demand  for 
semiconductors.  Fluctuations  in  the  results  of  this  business  may  materially  affect  the  Group's  overall  business 
performance.  In  addition,  the  market  may  face  a  downturn,  the  Group  may  fail  to  market  new  products  in  a  timely 
manner,  production  may  not  go  as  planned,  or  a  rapid  introduction  of  new  technology  may  make  the  Group's  current 
products obsolete. Economies of scale with respect to the manufacture of the many products produced by this business 
are  significant  and  there  is  intense  competition  to  develop  and  market  new  products.  Therefore,  significant  levels  of 
capital expenditures are required to maintain and improve competitiveness in both the price and quality of products.
  The  Group  makes  every  effort  to  implement  the  business  by  focusing  its  attention  on  these  factors  and  promoting 
strategic allocation of resources. At the same time, the Group makes every effort to increase profits by enhancing cost 
competitiveness, which is to be achieved by maintaining a technological advantage, and expanding the product line-up.
  Additionally, the Group undertakes rigorous selection in its investments and makes every effort to carefully monitor the 
latest market trends and to make capital investments in a timely manner, while thoroughly controlling flexible production 
that  corresponds  to  fluctuations  in  market  demand,  adjustment  of  supplies  and  investment  management.  The  Group 
promotes  procurement  of  components  from  overseas  in  US  dollars  in  order  to  mitigate  the  impact  of  exchange  rate 
fluctuations.
  Also, while Discrete and System LSI businesses are under the influence of a decline in demand, in order to improve the 
profitability  and  enhance  the  constitution  of  the  business,  the  Group  is  promoting  business  structure  reform,  such  as 
restructuring and sales of manufacturing facilities, narrowing product type, becoming specialized in design by expansion 
of  outsourced  production  (fabless  policy)  and  the  effort  to  enlarge  the  size  of  disc  in  pre-process  of  semiconductor 
production.

14 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2012

With respect to the storage products business, in order to establish the integrated storage business corresponding to the 
change in business environment, the Group consolidated the HDD business with the semiconductor business in July 2011. 
With the use of the advantage of having the high-spec SSD and the high-capacity HDD, the Group plans to strengthen 
the storage products business under which the HDD, SSD, and NAND flash memory are integrated.

(3) Business environment of the Social Infrastructure business
A  significant  portion  of  net  sales  in  the  Social  Infrastructure  business  is  attributable  to  national  and  local  government 
expenditures on public works and to capital expenditures by the private sector. The Group monitors trends in such capital 
expenditures in conducting its business and also makes best efforts to cultivate new business and customers. However, 
reductions and delays in spending on public works, low levels of private capital expenditures due to economic recession, 
and exchange rate fluctuations may have a negative impact on this business.
  Furthermore, this business involves the supply of products and services for large-scale projects on a worldwide basis. 
Postorder changes in the specifications or other terms, delays, appreciation of material costs, changes to and stoppages 
of plans for various reasons, including policy changes, natural and other disasters and other factors, may adversely and 
substantially affect the progress of such projects. In addition, when the percentage of completion method is applied to 
revenue recognition for long term construction contracts, the Group may reassess profits previously recorded as accrued 
and record them as a loss, in the event that the expected profits from such projects do not meet original expectations or 
projects  are  delayed  or  cancelled  for  some  reason.  Furthermore,  it  may  not  be  possible  to  pass  on  to  the  customer  or 
others any additional costs incurred due to delays in the work process, and such costs may not be collected. In order to 
deal with such cases, the Group makes every effort to grasp trends in markets and projects and to ensure thorough risk 
management  before  and  after  accepting  orders.  In  addition,  whenever  possible,  the  Group  makes  every  effort  to 
appropriately avoid risk by making agreements with customers for advance payment or performance payments, as well 
as other agreements on supplemental payments in the event of changes in specifications and delays in work. Although 
difficulties  may  arise  for  the  continuance  of  certain  currently  ongoing  projects  due  to  a  change  in  the  policies  of  fund 
providers and other factors, the Group is making every effort to obtain other fund providers for such pending projects.
  With  respect  to  the  nuclear  power  business,  since  the  incident  that  occurred  at  the  Fukushima  Nuclear  Power  Plant, 
there is a possibility that, to some extent, the project plans and orders obtained by the Group may be reconsidered. With 
respect  to  the  existing  power  plants,  we  will  implement  emergency  safety  measures  for  the  purpose  of  resuming 
operations and respond with permanent improvements in accordance with safety standards to be revised based on the 
analysis  of  the  incident  above.  In  addition,  taking  into  account  the  lessons  learned  from  the  incident  above,  upon 
development of the nuclear power reactor with higher safety standards corresponding to the loss of all electric sources or 
severe accident and next-generation small reactor, the Group is promoting the establishment of a low carbon mainstay 
electric source. With respect to the new construction of power plants, it is necessary to incorporate revised future safety 
standards,  and  the  Group  will  determine  its  future  development  while  confirming  the  status  of  customers  in  various 
countries and regions. In overseas countries, construction of a new nuclear power plant started in the United States for 
the first time in 34 years, and construction proceeds smoothly in China, as well.
  There  is  a  possibility  that  the  steep  appreciation  of  the  yen  and  Japanese  electric  power  companies'  reduction  of 
investment in the electricity distribution fields resulted from the Great East Japan Earthquake will affect the Company's 
electric power distribution system business. In response to this, by accelerating the global expansion of the electric power 
distribution system business, including production, the Group plans to expand the business centered around emerging 
economies.

(4) Business environment of the Home Appliances business
The  Home  Appliances  business  faces  intense  competition  from  many  companies  manufacturing  and  selling  products 
similar to those offered by the Group. In addition, the results of this business tend to be strongly affected by consumer 
spending and trends in building and housing construction starts relative to the lighting and air-conditioning businesses. 
Accordingly, the impact of the recession and price declines in recent years may lead to a deterioration in the results of this 
business.  Given  this,  the  Group  is  making  every  effort  to  expand  this  business  by  developing  it  at  the  global  level, 
including  in  emerging  economies  that  have  a  high  growth  rate,  as  well  as  by  developing  new  products  that  are 
environmentally friendly and that contribute to energy saving, such as new lighting systems.

(5) The Great East Japan Earthquake
There remains an impact of the Great East Japan Earthquake on the economy, and the businesses of the Group may be 
affected  due  to  the  change  in  domestic  demand.  In  addition,  the  shortage  of  electric  power  supply  resulted  from  the 
suspension of the operation of nuclear power plants and the rise in electricity costs due to the rise of fuel costs may affect 
the business activities, including manufacturing operations, of the Group.
  Regarding the power shortage, the Group expects to cooperate with the efforts to reduce power consumption by way 
of establishing in-house power generation, and, in addition to our effort to seek for the adjustment of production and the 
shifting and streamlining of the functions, the Group will forward the enhancement of energy saving, the introduction of 
highly effective devices and the promotion of the adoption of LED lighting.

Management's Discussion and Analysis

(6) Financial covenants
Loan agreements entered into between the Company and several financial institutions provide for financial covenants. 
Therefore,  if  the  Company's  consolidated  net  assets,  consolidated  operating  income  or  credit  rating  falls  below  the 
respective  levels  provided  for  in  the  financial  covenants,  the  Company's  obligations  with  respect  to  relevant  loan 
repayments may be accelerated upon demand by the relevant lending financial institutions. Furthermore, any breach by 
the Company of such financial covenants may trigger acceleration of the bonds or other borrowings of the Company.
  The Company aims to improve business performance by promoting, among other things, restructuring programs and 
business  structure  conversions,  while  making  all  possible  efforts  to  obtain  the  lending  financial  institutions' 
understanding  of  this,  in  order  to  avoid  breaching  financial  covenants  and  consequent  acceleration  of  repayments. 
However,if any acceleration of the Company's loan repayments occurs, it may materially affect the Company's business 
operations.

(7) Financial risk
Apart  from  being  affected  by  the  business  operations  of  the  Company  or  the  Group,  the  Company's  consolidated  and 
nonconsolidated results and financial condition may be affected by the following major financial factors:

(i) Deferred tax assets
The  Company  accounted  for  a  substantial  amount  of  deferred  tax  assets.  The  Group  reduces  deferred  tax  assets  by  a 
valuation  allowance  if,  based  on  the  weight  of  available  evidence,  some  portion  or  all  of  the  deferred  tax  assets  are 
unlikely to be realized. Recording of valuation allowances includes estimates and therefore involves inherent uncertainty.
  The Group may also be required hereafter to record further valuation allowances, and the Group's future results and 
financial condition may be adversely affected thereby.
  The Group may be affected by future tax regulatory changes as the recordation of deferred tax assets and valuation 
allowances have been made based on the currently-effective tax regulations.

(ii) Exchange rate fluctuations
The Group conducts business in various regions worldwide using a variety of foreign currencies and is therefore exposed 
to exchange rate fluctuations.
  Although the Group makes efforts to minimize the effect of fluctuation in exchange rates by balancing sales in foreign 
currencies  and  purchase  in  foreign  currencies,  there  is  a  possibility  that  operating  income/loss  will  be  affected  by 
exchange rate fluctuations due to changes in the balance of the scale of business segments and other factors. Also, there 
is a possibility that such foreign exchange losses will occur, as resulting from a difference between the exchange rates at 
the  time  of  recognizing  and  at  the  time  of  settlement  of  the  credits  and  debts  in  foreign  currencies,  in  case  of  steep 
exchange rate fluctuations.
  Foreign  currency  denominated  assets  and  liabilities  held  by  the  Group  are  translated  into  yen  as  the  currency  for 
reporting  consolidated  financial  results.  The  effects  of  currency  translation  adjustments  are  included  in  “accumulated 
other  comprehensive  income  (loss)”  reported  as  a  component  of  equity  attributable  to  shareholders  of  the  Company 
(“shareholders' equity”).As a result, the Group's shareholders' equity may be affected by exchange rate fluctuations.

(iii) Accrued pension and severance costs
The  Group  recognizes  the  funded  status  (i.e.,  the  difference  between  the  fair  value  of  plan  assets  and  the  benefit 
Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  obligations)  of  its  pension  plan  in  the  consolidated  balance  sheets,  with  a 
corresponding adjustment, net of tax, included in “accumulated other comprehensive loss” reported as a component of 
shareholders' equity. Such adjustment to “accumulated other comprehensive loss” represents the result of adjustment for 
the net unrecognized actuarial losses, unrecognized prior service costs, and unrecognized transition obligations. These 
amounts  will  be  subsequently  recognized  as  net  periodic  pension  and  severance  costs  calculated  pursuant  to  the 
applicable accounting standards. The funded status of the Group's pension plan may deteriorate due to declines in the 
fair  value  of  plan  assets  caused  by  lower  returns,  increases  of  severance  benefit  obligations  caused  by  changes  in  the 
discount rate, salary increase rates or other actuarial assumptions. As a result, the Group's shareholders' equity may be 
adversely affected, and the net periodic pension and severance costs to be recorded in “cost of sales” or “selling, general 
and administrative expenses” may increase.

(iv) Impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill and listed shares.
If there is an indication of impairment for a long-lived asset and the carrying amount of such asset will not be recovered 
by the future undiscounted cash flow, the carrying amount may be reduced to its fair value and a loss may be recognized 
as an impairment with respect to such difference. A substantial amount of goodwill has been recorded in the Company's 
consolidated balance sheets in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Goodwill is required to be 
tested for impairment annually. If an impairment test shows that the total of the carrying amounts, including goodwill, in 
relation to the business related to such goodwill exceeds its fair value, the relevant goodwill must be recalculated, and 
the difference between the current amount and the recalculated amount will be recognized as an impairment. Therefore, 
additional impairments may be recorded, depending on the valuation of long-lived assets and the estimate of future cash 

16 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2012

flow from business related to goodwill.
  Also, if the market price of listed shares held by the Group as the marketable securities declines, there is a possibility 
that  an  impairment  loss  on  the  relevant  shares  will  be  recorded  or  that  the  net  unrealized  losses  on  securities  will  be 
recognized.

(8) Changes in financing environment and others
The  Group  has  substantial  amounts  of  interest-bearing  debt  for  financing  that  is  highly  susceptible  to  market 
environments, including the European debt crisis, interest rate movements and fund supply and demand. Thus, changes 
in these factors may have an adverse effect on the Group's funding activities. The Group has also been raising funds by 
issuing bonds or taking loans from financial institutions. In the case the financial markets fall into unstable turmoil, the 
financial  institutions'  reduction  in  their  lending  in  response  to  the  change  in  capital  adequacy  requirements,  or  the 
downgrading of the credit rating of the Company given by rating agencies, there can be no assurance that the Group will 
obtain refinancing loans or new loans in the future on similar terms. If the Group is unable to obtain loans for the amount 
needed by the Group in a timely manner, the Group's financing may be adversely affected.

3. Risks related to business partners and others
(1) Procurement of components and materials
It  is  important  for  the  Group's  business  activities  to  procure  materials,  components  and  other  goods  in  a  timely  and 
appropriate manner. However, such materials, components and goods may only be obtainable from a limited number of 
suppliers due to the particularity of such materials, components  and goods,  and,  therefore, such suppliers  may not  be 
easily  replaced  [if  the  need  to  do  so  arises].  In  cases  of  delay  or  other  problems  in  receiving  supply  of  such  materials, 
components and other goods, shortages may occur or procurement costs may rise. It is necessary to procure materials, 
components and other goods at competitive costs and to optimize the entire supply chain, including suppliers, in order 
for the Group to bring competitive products to market.
  Any failure by the Group to procure such materials, components and other goods from key suppliers may impact the 
Group's competitiveness. Furthermore, any case of defective materials,components or other goods, or any failure to meet 
required specifications with respect to such materials, components or other goods, may also have an adverse effect on 
the reliability and reputation of the Group and Toshiba brand products.

In order to deal with such situations, the Group makes every effort to avoid risks by developing and cultivating new 
suppliers,  promoting  multi-vendor  procurement  by  means  of  adopting  standard  products,  and  engaging  in 
comprehensive  procurement  on  a  Group-wide  basis,  in  addition  to  ensuring  acquisition  of  materials,  components  and 
other goods through enhanced cooperation with key suppliers.

(2) Securing human resources
A large part of the success of the Group's businesses depends on securing excellent human resources in every business 
area  and  process,  including  product  development,  production,  marketing  and  business  management.  In  particular, 
securing  the  necessary  human  resources  is  essential  in  respect  of  achieving  globalization  of  the  Group's  businesses. 
However,competition to secure human resources is intensifying, as the number of qualified personnel in each area and 
process  is  limited,  while  demand  for  such  personnel  is  increasing.  As  a  result,  the  Group  may  fail  to  retain  existing 
employees or to obtain new human resources.
  The Group will further reinforce educational programs for employees, toward developing human resources, including 
nurturing personnel able to support and promote business globalization.

In  order  to  reduce  fixed  costs,  the  Group  is  implementing  personnel  measures,  including  the  reallocation  of  human 
resources to focus on strong and promising businesses, reclaiming jobs that are outsourced to third parties or conducted 
by limited-term employees, reducing the number of limited-term employees implementing a leave system, and reducing 
overtime  through  a  review  of  working  systems.  However,  fixed  costs  may  not  be  reduced  as  anticipated  or  the 
implementation of such personnel measures may adversely affect the Group's employee morale, production efficiency or 
the ability to secure capable human resources.

4. Risks related to products and technologies
(1) Investments in new businesses
The Group invests in companies involved in new businesses, enters into alliances with other companies with respect to 
new businesses, and actively develops its own new businesses. The Group is now accelerating expansion of new growth 
businesses that can take advantage of a synergy of the Group's strengths in areas that include next generation devices, 
smart communities, power electronics and EV, recyclable energy, and healthcare businesses. Promotion of new business 
is essential for implementation of the growth strategy, and as a part of this, in addition to the acquisition of Landis+Gyr 
AG,  a  company  incorporated  in  Switzerland  and  Vital  Images,  Inc.,  a  company  incorporated  in  the  United  States,  the 
Group  decided  to  acquire  the  Retail  Stores  Solutions  business  from  IBM  Corporation,  a  company  incorporated  in  the 
United States.
  Cultivation  of  new  businesses  entails  substantial  uncertainty,  and  if  any  new  business  in  which  the  Group  invests  or 

TOSHIBA Annual Report 2012

17

 
 
Management's Discussion and Analysis

which the Group attempts to develop does not progress as planned, the Group may be adversely affected by incurring 
investment  expenses  that  do  not  lead  to  the  anticipated  results.  In  order  to  avoid  these  risks,  the  Group  makes  every 
effort  to  resolve  various  technological  issues  and  to  develop  and  capture  potential  demand  effectively  in  the  new 
business development process.

5. Risks related to trade practices
(1) Parent company's guarantees
When  a  subsidiary  of  the  Company  accepts  an  order  for  a  large  project,  such  as  a  plant,  the  Company,  as  the  parent 
company, may, at the request of the customer, provide guarantees with respect to the subsidiary's performance under the 
contract.  Such  parent  guarantees  are  made  pursuant  to  standard  business  practices  and  in  the  ordinary  course  of 
business. If the subsidiary subsequently fails to fulfill its obligations, the Company may be obligated to bear the resulting 
loss. The Company makes every effort to conduct appropriate management by periodically monitoring the subsidiaries' 
fulfillment of the contract requirements and by cooperating with such subsidiaries where necessary.

6. Risks related to new products and new technology
(1) Development of new products
It is critically important for the Group to offer innovative and attractive new products and services. The Group has exerted 
its efforts to create “World-First” and “World No.1” products that deliver surprise and inspiration to customers, ahead of 
the  needs  of  customers.  However,  due  to  the  rapid  pace  of  technological  innovation,  the  emergence  of  alternative 
technologies and products and changes in technological standards, the optimum introduction of new products to the 
market may not be accomplished, or new products may be accepted by the market for a shorter period than anticipated. 
In addition, any failure on the part of the Group to continuously obtain sufficient funding and resources for development 
of technologies may affect the Group's ability to develop new products and services and to introduce them to market.
  From the viewpoint of enhancing concentration and selection of managerial resources, the Group now selects research 
and development themes more rigorously, with a primary focus on developing original and advanced technologies, with 
close  consideration  for  the  timing  of  market  introduction.  More  rigorous  selection  of  research  and  development  items 
may  impair  the  Group's  technological  superiority  in  certain  products  and  technological  fields.  In  order  to  avoid  these 
risks, the Group intends to enhance the efficiency of research and development activities by sharing intellectual property 
through the promotion of common platforms and using overseas resources more efficiently in system development.

7. Risks related to laws and regulations
(1) Information security
The Group maintains and manages personal information obtained through business operations, as well as trade secrets 
regarding the Group's technology, marketing and other business operations. Even though the Group makes every effort 
to  manage  this  information  appropriately,  the  Group's  business  performance  and  financial  situation  may  be  subject  to 
negative influences in the event of an unanticipated leak of such information and such information is obtained and used 
illegally by a third party.
  Additionally, the role of information systems in the Group is critical to carrying out business activities. While the Group 
makes every effort to ensure the stable operation of its information systems, there is no assurance that their functionality 
would  not  be  impaired  or  destroyed  by  computer  viruses,  software  or  hardware  failures,  disaster,  terrorism,  or  other 
causes.

(2) Compliance and internal control
The  Group  is  active  in  various  businesses  in  regions  worldwide,  and  its  business  activities  are  subject  to  the  laws  and 
regulations of each region. The Group has implemented and operates necessary and appropriate internal control systems 
for a number of purposes, including compliance with laws and regulations and strict reporting of business and financial 
matters. 
  However,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  the  Group  will  always  be  able  to  structure  and  operate  effective  internal 
control systems. Furthermore, such internal control systems may themselves, by their nature, have limitations, and it is 
not possible to guarantee that they will fully achieve their objectives. Therefore, there is no assurance that the Group will 
not unknowingly and unintentionally violate laws and regulations in future. Changes in laws and regulations or changes 
in  Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  interpretations  of  laws  and  regulations  by  the  relevant  authorities  may  also 
cause difficulty in achieving compliance with laws and regulations or may result in increased compliance costs. On these 
grounds,  the  Group  makes  every  effort  to  minimize  these  risks  by  making  periodic  revisions  to  the  internal  control 
systems, continuously monitoring operations, and so forth.

(3) The environment
The  Group  is  subject  to  various  environmental  laws,  including  laws  on  air  pollution,  water  pollution,  toxic  substances, 
waste  disposal,  product  recycling,  prevention  of  global  warming  and  energy  policies,  in  its  global  business  activities. 
While the Group pays careful attention to these laws and regulations, it is possible that the Group may encounter legal or 
social liability for environmental matters, such as liability for the clean up of land at manufacturing bases throughout the 

18 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2012

world, regardless of whether the Group is at fault or not, with respect to its business activities, including its past activities. 
It  is  also  possible  that,  in  future,  the  Group  will  face  more  stringent  requirements  on  the  removal  of  environmental 
hazards, including toxic substances, or on further reducing emissions of greenhouse gases, as a result of the introduction 
of more demanding environmental regulations or in accordance with societal requirements.
  The  Group's  operations  require  the  use  of  various  chemical  compounds,  radioactive  materials,  nuclear  materials  and 
other toxic materials. The Group takes maximum care of such materials, giving first priority to human life and safety.
  However, the Group may incur damage, or the Group's reputation may be adversely affected, as a result of a natural 
disaster, the threat or occurrence of a terrorist incident, or of an accident or other contingency (including those beyond 
the Group's control) that leads to environmental pollution or the potential for such pollution.

(4) Product quality claims
While  the  Group  makes  every  effort  to  implement  quality  control  measures  and  to  manufacture  its  products  in 
accordance  with  appropriate  quality-control  standards,  there  can  be  no  assurance  that  all  products  are  free  of  defects 
that may result in a recall, lawsuits or other claims relating to product quality due to unforeseen reasons or circumstances.

8. Risks related to material legal proceedings
(1) Legal proceedings
The Group undertakes global business operations and is involved from time to time in disputes, including lawsuits and 
other legal proceedings, and investigations by relevant authorities. It is possible that such cases may arise in the future.
  Due to the differences in judicial systems and the uncertainties inherent in such proceedings, the Group may be subject 
to a ruling requiring payment of amounts far exceeding its expectations. Any judgment or decision unfavorable to the 
Group  could  also  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  the  Group's  business,  operating  results  or  financial  condition.  In 
addition, due to various circumstances, there can be no assurance that lawsuits involving claims for large sums will not be 
brought, even if the possibility of receiving orders for such payment is quite low.

In  January  2007,  the  European  Commission  (the  “Commission”)  adopted  a  decision  imposing  fines  on  19  companies, 
including  the  Company,  for  violating  EU  competition  laws  in  the  gas  insulated  switchgear  market.  The  Company  was 
individually fined €86.25 million and was also fined €4.65 million jointly and severally with Mitsubishi Electric Corporation. 
The Company contends that it did not violate EU competition laws and appealed the decision to the General Court of the 
European Union in April 2007. In July 2011, the General Court of the European Union annulled the fine imposed on the 
Company entirely, while the Commission's decision claiming that EU competition laws were violated by the Company was 
supported.  However,  because  the  content  of  such  judgment  is  different  from  the  Company's  recognition  of  fact,  the 
Company appealed to the Court of Justice of the European Union in September 2011. The Company will assert its opinion 
in the appellate instance.
  Furthermore,  the  Group  is  under  investigation  by  the  U.S.  Department  of  Justice,  the  Commission,  and  other 
competition  regulatory  authorities,  for  alleged  violations  of  competition  laws  with  respect  to  products  that  include 
semiconductors, LCD products, cathode ray tubes (CRT), heavy electrical equipment, and optical disc devices, while class 
action lawsuits with respect to alleged anti-competitive behavior brought against the Group are currently pending in the 
United States.
  Because the contract with the Ministry of Defense regarding the business of development of a reconnaissance system 
for the F-15 fighter was unilaterally cancelled by the other party, the Company filed a suit in the Tokyo District Court in 
July 2011, claiming payment therefor. Because the Company believes that it properly conducted its business in accordance 
with the contract and considers the relevant cancellation of contract to be unjust, the Company will assert its opinion in 
the suit.

9. Risks related to directors, employees, major shareholders and affiliates
(1) Alliance in NAND flash memory
The Group has a strategic alliance with a U.S. company, SanDisk Corporation (“SanDisk”), for the production of NAND flash 
memory,  which  includes  production  joint  ventures  (equity  method  affiliates).  Under  the  joint  venture  agreement,  the 
Group  may  purchase  SanDisk's  ownership  interests  in  the  production  joint  ventures.  In  addition,  the  Company  and 
SanDisk each provide a 50% guaranty in respect of the lease agreements of production facilities held by the production 
joint  ventures.  In  the  event  that  SanDisk's  operating  results  and  financial  condition  deteriorate,  the  Company  may 
succeed  to  SanDisk's  guaranty  obligations  or  purchase  SanDisk's  ownership  interests  in  the  relevant  production  joint 
ventures,  in  which  case  the  production  joint  ventures  will  thereafter  be  treated  as  consolidated  subsidiaries  of  the 
Company.

(2) Alliance in nuclear power systems business
The  Group  acquired  Westinghouse  group  in  October  2006.  The  Company's  ownership  interest  in  Westinghouse  group 
(including the holding companies) is currently 67%.The remainder is held by three companies in Japan and overseas (the 
“Minority Shareholders”).
  While  the  shareholders'  agreements  restrict  the  Minority  Shareholders  from  transferring  their  respective  ownership 

TOSHIBA Annual Report 2012

19

 
Management's Discussion and Analysis

interests in companies of Westinghouse group to a third party until October 1, 2012, the Minority Shareholders have been 
given an option to sell all or part of their ownership interests to the Company (“Put Options”). However, since exercising 
the  Put  Options  held  by  some  of  the  Minority  Shareholders  requires  consent  from  a  third  party,  such  Minority 
Shareholders are not able to exercise their Put Options at their own discretion.
  The  Group  also  has  an  option  to  purchase  from  the  Minority  Shareholders  all  or  part  of  their  respective  ownership 
interest  in  companies  of  Westinghouse  group  under  certain  conditions.  These  options  are  in  place  for  the  purpose  of 
protecting the interests of the Minority Shareholders, while preventing equity participation by a third party which may 
put the Group at disadvantage. The Company makes every effort to maintain a favorable relationship with the Minority 
Shareholders in connection with Westinghouse group's business. However in  the  event  that the  Minority  Shareholders 
exercise their respective Put Options, or the Group exercises its purchase option, the Group will seek investment from a 
new strategic partner. Prior to such an investment, the Group may need to procure substantial funds in connection with 
the exercise of Put Options or purchase options.

10. Others
(1) Measures against counterfeit products
While  the  Group  protects  and  seeks  to  enhance  the  value  of  the  Toshiba  brand,  counterfeit  products  created  by  third 
parties are found worldwide. While the Group makes every effort to prevent counterfeit products, the heavy circulation 
of counterfeit products may dilute the value of the Toshiba brand, and the Group's net sales may be adversely affected.

(2) Protection of intellectual property rights
The Group makes every effort to secure intellectual property rights. However, in some regions, it may not be possible to 
secure sufficient protection.
  The Group also uses the intellectual property of third parties pursuant to licenses. It is possible that the Group may fail 
to receive the necessary third-party licenses for new technology or is unable to obtain the renewal of existing licenses or 
receives them on unfavorable terms.

In  addition,  it  is  also  possible  that  a  suit  or  such  similar  action  or  proceeding  may  be  brought  against  the  Group  in 
respect  of  intellectual  property  rights  or  that  the  Group  may  itself  have  to  file  a  suit  in  order  to  protect  its  intellectual 
property rights. Such lawsuits may require time, costs and other management resources, and depending on the outcome 
of these lawsuits, the Group may not be able to use important technology, or the Group may be found to be liable for 
damages.

(3) Political, economic and social conditions
The Group undertakes global business operations. Any changes in political, economic, and social conditions and policies, 
legal or regulatory changes and exchange rate fluctuations, in Japan or overseas, may impact market demand and the 
Group's business operations. The Group makes every effort to avoid these risks and to reduce any impact when such risks 
emerge by continuously monitoring changes in the situation in each region where the Group operates, including legal 
and regulatory changes, and by promptly initiating countermeasures.

(4) Sovereign Risk
In an environment marked by anxiety over the future financial condition of some of the European countries, concern over 
the  financial  system  is  increasing,  the  influence  of  which  is  not  only  the  direct  influence  within  Europe,  but  also  the 
indirect influence on other regions, such as the deterioration in emerging economies due to fluctuation in exchange rates 
or withdrawal of funds by European banks or economic stagnation in the Chinese economy. If the financial condition of 
some countries should collapse, there is a possibility that the financial and capital markets and global economy will be 
significantly  affected,  and  the  Group,  letting  the  financial  crisis  in  2008  be  a  lesson,  has  been  advancing  the  measures 
therefor since last year, upon implementing the stress test and setting the trigger event.

(5) Natural disasters
Most  of  the  Group's  Japanese  production  facilities  are  located  in  the  Keihin  region  of  Japan,  which  includes  Tokyo, 
Kawasaki  City,  Yokohama  City  and  the  surrounding  area,  while  key  semiconductor  production  facilities  are  located  in 
Kyushu,  Tokai,  Hanshin  and  Tohoku.  The  Group  is  currently  expanding  its  production  facilities  in  Asia.  As  a  result,  any 
occurrence of a wide-scale disaster, terrorism or epidemic illness, such as a new type of flu, particularly in any of these 
areas could have a more significant adverse effect on the Group's results.
  Additionally, large-scale disasters, such as earthquakes or typhoons, in regions where production or distribution sites 
are located may damage or destroy production capabilities, suspend procurement of raw materials or components, and 
cause  transportation  and  sales  interruptions  or  other  similar  disruptions,  which  could  affect  production  capabilities 
significantly. In the past, the businesses of the Group were affected to a certain extent by the Great East Japan Earthquake 
and the floods in Thailand.

In  order  to  manage  these  risks,  the  Group  established  the  “Business  Continuity  Plan  (BCP)”  as  part  of  its  continuing 
effort to avoid or minimize any impact from such disasters in addition to establishing the precautionary measures, such 
as construction of earthquake-resistant buildings and emergency procedures responsive to large-scale disasters.

RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Because the full text was amended, the text is not underlined.

1) Background
On  February  12,  2015,  Toshiba  Corporation  (“the  Company”)  received  a  report  order  from  the  Securities  and  Exchange 
Surveillance  Commission  pursuant  to  Article  26  of  the  Financial  Instruments  and  Exchange  Act  and  was  subject  to  a 
disclosure inspection with respect to some projects in which the percentage-of-completion of accounting method was 
used, among others. Following that, in the course of a self-investigation by the Company to deal with the issues identified 
relating to those projects in the disclosure inspection, it was noted that some matters require investigation in respect of 
accounting treatments for some infrastructure projects of the Company in which the percentage-of-completion method 
was used during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014. Based on this situation, it was decided that the Special Investigation 
Committee consisting of the Company’s internal committee members as well as external attorneys-at-law and certified 
public  accountants  would  be  established  as  of  April  3,  2015,  and  the  Company  would  of  its  own  accord  implement  an 
investigation of the relevant facts. Then the Special Investigation Committee found that, in respect of some infrastructure 
projects, the total amount of the contract cost was underestimated and Contract Losses (including provisions for contract 
losses) were not recorded in a timely manner, and also, issues requiring further investigation were identified.
  Consequently,  the  Company  decided  to  shift  to  the  framework  of  investigation  to  an  Independent  Investigation 
Committee comprising independent and impartial external experts who did not have any interests in the Company as of 
May 8, 2015. The scope of the investigation delegated to the Independent Investigation Committee covers four matters: 
(1) accounting treatments in relation to projects in which the percentage-of-completion method was used; (2) accounting 
treatments in relation to recording of operating expenses in the Visual Products Business; (3) accounting treatments in 
relation to the valuation of inventory in the Semiconductor Business, mainly discrete and system LSIs; and (4) accounting 
treatments in relation to parts transactions, etc. in the PC Business. The Company received an investigation report from 
the Independent Investigation Committee on July 20, 2015.

In  parallel  with  such  efforts,  the  Company  and  all  its  consolidated  subsidiaries  as  of  March  31,  2015  underwent  self-
checks with respect to whether or not there was any issue that was not compliant with the accounting standards, internal 
regulations and other rules or any other inappropriate accounting treatment, and whether or not the Company and its 
consolidated  subsidiaries  were  aware  of  any  such  issue  or  inappropriate  accounting  treatment,  etc.  including  minor 
matters at each quarter-end in the period between the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and the fiscal year ended March 
31, 2015 and during the period between April 1, 2015 and May 31, 2015.
  The  Company  amended  the  consolidated  financial  statements  for  each  fiscal  year  in  the  period  from  the  fiscal  year 
ended March 31, 2010 to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 and for each quarter (first three months, first six months and 
first  nine  months)  in  the  period  from  the  fiscal  year  ended  March  31,  2011  to  the  fiscal  year  ended  March  31,  2015,  to 
reflect  the  correction  of  the  events  identified  in  the  investigation  report  of  the  Independent  Investigation  Committee 
stated  above  and  the  internal  self-checks  and  the  correction  of  other  issues  that  had  not  been  corrected  due  to  a 
materiality viewpoint.

In  line  with  the  amendment,  data  in  the  consolidated  financial  statements  were  also  reclassified  for  disclosure  in 
connection with discontinued operations, and ASU No. 2011-05 has been applied retrospectively to disclose consolidated 
statement of comprehensive income. Information on discontinued operations is disclosed in Note 4.

2) Overview
Restatement for the accounting treatment under the percentage-of-completion method
As the result of the above investigations, it was found that in certain infrastructure projects in which the percentage-of-
completion method was used, there were cases where the estimated total cost was not calculated based on the latest 
information on incurred expenses, where provisions for contract losses were not recorded at the time when generation of 
losses  became  evident,  and  where  the  estimated  total  cost  was  calculated  in  anticipation  of  cost  reductions  which 
remained unsubstantiated.
  To correct these accounting treatments, the Company restated data in the consolidated financial statements issued in 
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and the following years. The effect of this restatement on net sales and income from 
continuing operations, before income taxes and noncontrolling interests, for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2012 and 
2011 is as stated in 3) below. 

Restatement for the accounting treatment in relation to recording operating expenses in the Visual Products Business
As the result of the above investigations, etc., it was found that in the Visual Products Business, there were cases where 
some expenses were not recorded as expenses using the accrual-based method, where profits that should not be realized 
were  recognized  by  making  use  of  transactions  between  consolidated  group  companies,  and  where  discounts  in  the 
purchase  prices  were  recognized,  for  example  by  reflecting  adjustment  or  increase  of  the  procurement  prices  for  the 
following periods, even if cost was not actually reduced.

  To correct these accounting treatments, the Company restated data in the consolidated financial statements issued in 
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and the following years. The effect of this restatement on net sales and income from 
continuing operations, before income taxes and noncontrolling interests, for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2012 and 
2011 is as stated in 3) below.

Restatement for the accounting treatment in the parts transactions in the PC Business
As  the  result  of  the  above  investigations,  it  was  found  that  in  the  PC  Business,  there  were  cases  where  inappropriate 
profits were recognized in each fiscal period for parts transactions with manufacturing subcontractors, as well as cases 
where some expenses were not recorded as expenses using the accrual-based method and where profits that should not 
be realized were recognized by making use of transactions between consolidated group companies.
  To correct these accounting treatments, the Company restated data in the consolidated financial statements issued in 
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and the following years. The effect of this restatement on income from continuing 
operations,  before  income  taxes  and  noncontrolling  interests,  for  the  fiscal  years  ended  March  31,  2012  and  2011  is  as 
stated in 3) below.

Restatement for the accounting treatment in relation to valuation of inventory in the Semiconductor Business
As  the  result  of  the  above  investigations,  it  was  found  that  in  the  Semiconductor  Business,  there  were  cases  where 
valuation losses for work-in-progress inventories and others were not recognized until the time of actual disposal of the 
inventories,  and  where  the  book  values  of  term-end  intermediate  products  and  term-end  completed  products  were 
overstated due to the lack of consistency  between the front-end  and back-end for revision  of  the standard cost in the 
standard cost accounting, and consequently cost of goods sold was understated. 
  To correct these accounting treatments, the Company restated data in the consolidated financial statements issued in 
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and the following years. The effect of this restatement on income from continuing 
operations,  before  income  taxes  and  noncontrolling  interests,  for  the  fiscal  years  ended  March  31,  2012  and  2011  is  as 
stated in 3) below.

Restatement for the account treatment for events identified in self-check and others
The Company restated data in the consolidated financial statements issued in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and 
the following years, including events identified in the above self-check and other matters that had not been corrected 
from the standpoint of materiality. This restatement includes the correction of the inappropriate accounting treatment 
for preparing financial statements for prior years of Toshiba Medical Information Systems Corporation. The effect of this 
restatement on net sales and income from continuing operations, before income taxes and noncontrolling interests, for 
the fiscal years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is as stated in 3) below.

Additional recognition of impairment losses and resulting adjustment to depreciation
Incidental  with  the  above  correction  of  accounting  treatments,  the  Company  recognized  impairment  losses  on  fixed 
assets  and  made  a  correction  of  the  recognition  timing  thereof  and  the  resulting  adjustment  to  depreciation  for  the 
Visual Products Business, PC Business, discrete and system LSIs businesses of the Semiconductor Business. Consequently, 
relevant data were restated in the consolidated financial statements issued in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and 
the  following  years.  The  effect  of  this  restatement  on  income  from  continuing  operations,  before  income  taxes  and 
noncontrolling interests, for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is as stated in 3) below.

Others
For significant business combinations conducted in prior years, some data in the consolidated financial statements were 
retrospectively reclassified due to the completion of allocation of acquisition amounts to assets acquired and liabilities 
assumed.  The  effect  on  income  from  continuing  operations,  before  income  taxes  and  noncontrolling  interests,  for  the 
fiscal years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is as stated in 3) below.

Income taxes
Although the effect of the correction of the above accounting treatments on income taxes for the current fiscal year in 
the consolidated tax filing group led by the Company and in subsidiaries is insignificant, the Company made adjustments 
to  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  and  reviewed  valuation  allowances  due  to  a  change  in  temporary  differences 
resulting from the above correction of accounting treatments for prior years. Consequently, relevant data were restated in 
the consolidated financial statements issued in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and the following years. The effect of 
this restatement on income taxes for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is as stated in 3) below.

Toshiba Corporation and Subsidiaries

Restated text is underlined except for Restatement of previously issued consolidated financial statements.

2011, respectively and the remainder in Asia, North America, Europe and other parts of the world.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company and its domestic subsidiaries maintain their records and prepare their financial statements in accordance 
with  accounting  principles  generally  accepted  in  Japan,  and  its  foreign  subsidiaries  in  conformity  with  those  of  the 
countries of their domicile.

  Certain  adjustments  and  reclassifications  have  been  incorporated  in  the  accompanying  consolidated  financial 
statements to conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These adjustments were not 
recorded in the statutory books of account.

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION AND INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its majority-owned subsidiaries and variable 
interest  entities  (“VIEs”)  for  which  the  Group  is  the  primary  beneficiary  in  accordance  with  the  Accounting  Standards 
Codification  (“ASC”)  No.810  “Consolidation”  (“ASC  No.810”).  All  significant  intra-entity  transactions  and  accounts  are 
eliminated in consolidation.

Investments in affiliates over which the Group has the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for under 
the equity method of accounting. Net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of the Company includes its equity in the 
current net earnings (loss) of such companies after elimination of unrealized intra-entity gains. The proportionate share of 
the  income  or  loss  of  some  companies  accounted  for  under  the  equity  method  is  recognized  from  the  most  recent 
available financial statements.

USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in 
the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets 
and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the 
reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the  reporting  periods.  The  Group  has  identified  significant  areas 
where it believes assumptions and estimates are particularly critical to the consolidated financial statements. These are 
determination  of  impairment  on  long-lived  tangible  and  intangible  assets,  goodwill  and  investments,  recoverability  of 
receivables,  realization  of  deferred  tax  assets,  uncertain  tax  positions,  pension  accounting  assumptions,  revenue 
recognition and other valuation allowances and reserves including contingencies for litigations. Actual results could differ 
from those estimates.

CASH EQUIVALENTS
All highly liquid investments with original maturities of 3 months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash 
equivalents.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
The assets and liabilities of foreign consolidated subsidiaries and affiliates that operate in a local currency environment 
are  translated  into  Japanese  yen  at  applicable  current  exchange  rates  at  year  end.  Income  and  expense  items  are 
translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. The effects of these translation adjustments are included 
in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reported as a component of equity. Exchange gains and losses 
resulting from foreign currency transactions and translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are 
included in other income or other expense in the consolidated statement of income.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Toshiba Corporation and Subsidiaries
March 31, 2012

ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL RECEIVABLES
An allowance for doubtful trade receivables is recorded based on a combination of the write-off history, aging analysis 
and  an  evaluation  of  any  specific  known  troubled  accounts.  When  all  collection  efforts  are  exhausted  including  legal 
recourse, the accounts or portions thereof are deemed to be uncollectible and charged against the allowance.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES AND OTHER INVESTMENTS
The Group classifies all of its marketable securities as available-for-sale which are reported at fair value, with unrealized 
gains  and  losses  included  in  accumulated  other  comprehensive  income  (loss),  net  of  tax.  Other  investments  without 
quoted market prices are stated at cost. Realized gains or losses on the sale of securities are based on the average cost of 
a particular security held at the time of sale.
  Marketable securities and other investment securities are regularly reviewed for other-than-temporary impairments in 
carrying amount based on criteria that include the length of time and the extent to which the market value has been less 
than  cost,  the  financial  condition  and  near-term  prospects  of  the  issuer  and  the  Group's  intent  and  ability  to  retain 
marketable  securities  and  investment  securities  for  a  period  of  time  sufficient  to  allow  for  any  anticipated  recovery  in 
market value.When such a decline exists, the Group recognizes an impairment loss to the extent of such decline.

INVENTORIES
Raw materials, finished products and work in process for products are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being 
determined principally by the average method. Finished products and work in process for contract items are stated at the 
lower of cost or estimated realizable value, cost being determined by accumulated production costs.

In accordance with general industry practice, items with long manufacturing periods are included among inventories 

even when not realizable within one year.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property,  plant  and  equipment,  including  significant  renewals  and  additions,  are  carried  at  cost.  Depreciation  for 
property,  plant  and  equipment  associated  with  the  Company  and  domestic  subsidiaries  is  computed  generally  by  the 
250% declining-balance method with estimated residual value recorded at a nominal value. Depreciation for property, 
plant and equipment for foreign subsidiaries is generally computed using the straight line method.
  The  estimated  useful  lives  of  buildings  are  3  to  50  years,  and  those  of  machinery  and  equipment  are  2  to  20  years. 
Maintenance and repairs, including minor renewals and betterments, are expensed as incurred.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Long-lived  assets,  other  than  goodwill  and  intangible  assets  with  indefinite  useful  lives,  are  evaluated  for  impairment 
using an estimate of undiscounted cash flows whenever events or changes in circumstances  indicate that the carrying 
amount of such asset may not be recoverable. If the estimate of undiscounted cash flow is less than the carrying amount 
of  the  asset,  an  impairment  loss  is  recorded  based  on  the  fair  value  of  the  asset.  Fair  value  is  determined  primarily  by 
using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. For assets held for sale, an 
impairment loss is further increased by costs to sell. Long-lived assets to be disposed of other than by sale are considered 
held and used until disposed of.

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill  and  intangible  assets  with  indefinite  useful  lives  are  not  amortized,  but  instead  are  tested  for  impairment  at 
least annually. Goodwill is allocated among and tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. Intangible assets with 
finite useful lives, consisting primarily of core and current technology and software, are amortized using the straight-line 
method over their respective contractual periods or estimated useful lives.

ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES
Liabilities for environmental remediation and other environmental costs are accrued when environmental assessments or 
remedial efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. 
Such liabilities are adjusted as further information develops or circumstances change. Costs of future obligations are not 
discounted to their present values.

48 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2012

 
INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes is computed based on the income (loss) from continuing operations, before income taxes 
and noncontrolling interests included in the consolidated statement of income. Deferred income taxes are recorded to 
reflect the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and 
their reported amounts in the financial statements, and are measured by applying currently enacted tax laws.The effect 
on  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  of  a  change  in  tax  rates  is  recognized  in  income  in  the  period  that  the  change  is 
enacted.Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit 
will not be realized.
  The Group recognizes the financial statement effects of tax positions when they are more likely than not, based on the 
technical  merits,  that  the  tax  positions  will  be  sustained  upon  examination  by  the  tax  authorities.  Benefits  from  tax 
positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of benefit that is 
greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement.

ACCRUED PENSION AND SEVERANCE COSTS
The  Company  and  certain  subsidiaries  have  various  retirement  benefit  plans  covering  substantially  all  employees.  The 
unrecognized  net  obligation  existing  at  initial  application  of  ASC  No.715  “Compensation-Retirement Benefits”,  and  prior 
service  costs  resulting  from  amendments  to  the  plans  are  amortized  over  the  average  remaining  service  period  of 
employees expected to receive benefits. Unrecognized actuarial gains and losses that exceed 10 percent of the greater of 
the  projected  benefit  obligation  or  the  fair  value  of  plan  assets  are  also  amortized  over  the  average  remaining  service 
period of employees expected to receive benefits.

NET EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO SHAREHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY
Basic  net  earnings  (loss)  per  share  attributable  to  shareholders  of  the  Company  (“EPS”)  are  computed  based  on  the 
weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS assumes the dilution 
that could occur if stock acquisition rights were exercised to issue common stock, unless their inclusion would have an 
anti-dilutive effect.

REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue of mass-produced standard products, such as digital products and electronic devices, is recognized when there 
is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the product has been delivered, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and 
collectibility is reasonably assured. Mass-produced standard products are considered delivered to customers once they 
have been shipped, and the title and risk of loss have transferred.
  Revenue related to equipment that requires installation, such as social infrastructure business, is recognized when the 
installation of the equipment is completed, the equipment is accepted by the customer and other specific criteria of the 
equipment are demonstrated by the Group.
  Revenue from services, such as maintenance service for plant and other systems, that are priced and sold separately 
from the equipment is recognized ratably over the contract term or as the services are provided.
  Revenue on long-term contracts is recorded under  the percentage of  completion  method. To measure the  extent of 
progress  toward  completion,  the  Group  generally  compares  the  costs  incurred  to  date  to  the  estimated  total  costs  to 
complete  based  upon  the  most  recent  available  information.  When  estimates  of  the  extent  of  progress  toward 
completion  and  contract  costs  are  reasonably  dependable,  revenue  from  the  contract  is  recognized  based  on  the 
percentage of completion. A provision for contract losses is recorded in its entirety when the loss first becomes evident.
  Revenue  from  arrangements  with  multiple  elements,  which  may  include  any  combination  of  products,  equipment, 
installment and maintenance, is allocated to each element based on its relative selling price if such element meets the 
criteria for treatment as a separate unit of accounting as prescribed in ASC No.605 “Revenue Recognition” ("ASC No.605"). 
Otherwise, revenue is deferred until the undelivered elements are fulfilled as a single unit of accounting. The Company 
adopted  Accounting  Standards  Updates  ("ASU")  No.2009-13  effective  April  1,  2011,  which  amends  ASC  No.605.  The 
adoption  of  ASU  No.2009-13  does  not  have  a  material  impact  on  the  Company's  financial  position  and  results  of 
operations.
  Revenue from the development of custom software products is recognized  when  there  is  persuasive  evidence of an 
arrangement,  the  sales  price  is  fixed  or  determinable,  collectibility  is  probable,  and  the  software  product  has  been 
delivered and accepted by the customer. The Company adopted ASU No.2009-14 effective April 1, 2011, which amends 
ASC  No.985  “Software”.  The  adoption  of  ASU  No.2009-14  does  not  have  a  material  impact  on  the  Company's  financial 
position and results of operations.

SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS
The Group includes shipping and handling costs which totaled ¥73,459 million ($895,841 thousand) and ¥79,866 million 
for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively in selling, general and administrative expenses.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The  Group  uses  a  variety  of  derivative  financial  instruments,  which  include  forward  exchange  contracts,  interest  rate 
swap  agreements,  currency  swap  agreements  and  currency  options  for  the  purpose  of  currency  exchange  rate  and 
interest rate risk management. Refer to Note 21 for descriptions of these financial instruments.
  The  Group  recognizes  all  derivative  financial  instruments,  such  as  forward  exchange  contracts,  interest  rate  swap 
agreements,  currency  swap  agreements  and  currency  options  in  the  consolidated  financial  statements  at  fair  value 
regardless of the purpose or intent for holding the derivative financial instruments. Changes in the fair value of derivative 
financial  instruments  are  either  recognized  periodically  in  income  or  in  equity  as  a  component  of  accumulated  other 
comprehensive income (loss) depending on whether the derivative financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting, 
and  if  so,  whether  they  qualify  as  a  fair  value  hedge  or  a  cash  flow  hedge.  Changes  in  fair  value  of  derivative  financial 
instruments accounted for as fair value hedges are recorded in income along with the portion of the change in the fair 
value  of  the  hedged  item  that  relates  to  the  hedged  risk.  Changes  in  fair  value  of  derivative  financial  instruments 
accounted  for  as  cash  flow  hedges,  to  the  extent  they  are  effective  as  a  hedge,  are  recorded  in  accumulated  other 
comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments not qualifying as a 
hedge are reported in income.

SALES OF RECEIVABLES
The  Group  has  transferred  certain  trade  notes  and  accounts  receivable  under  several  securitization  programs.  When  a 
transfer  of  financial  assets  is  eligible  to  be  accounted  for  as  a  sale  under  ASC  No.860  “Transfers  and  Servicing”  (“ASC 
No.860”) , these securitization transactions are accounted for as a sale and the receivables sold under these facilities are 
excluded from the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS
The Group records asset retirement obligations at fair value in the period incurred. The fair value of the liability is added 
to the carrying amount of the associated asset. This additional carrying amount is then depreciated over the life of the 
asset. The liability increases due to the passage of time based on the time value of money until the obligation is settled. 
Subsequent to the initial recognition, the liability is adjusted for any revisions to the expected amount of the retirement 
obligation, and for accretion of the liability due to the passage of time.

RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS
In  June  2011,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  (“FASB”)  issued  ASU  No.2011-05.  ASU  No.2011-05  amends  ASC 
No.220  “Comprehensive Income”,  and  eliminates  the  option  to  present  the  other  comprehensive  income  as  part  of  the 
statement  of  changes  in  stakeholder's  equity.  Therefore,  the  Company  is  required  to  report  comprehensive  income  in 
either a single continuous statement or two separate but consecutive statements. ASU No.2011-05 is effective for fiscal 
years  beginning  after  December  15,  2011  and  the  Company  will  adopt  ASU  No.2011-05  effective  April  1,  2012.  The 
Company is currently examining both presentations mentioned above. The adoption of ASU No.2011-05 will not impact 
the Company's financial position and results of operations.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No.2011-08. ASU No.2011-08 amends ASC No.350 “Intangibles-Goodwill and 
other”  (“ASC  No.350”)  and  provides  entities  an  option  to  perform  a  qualitative  assessment  to  determine  whether  it  is 
necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. ASU No.2011-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after 
December 15, 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU No.2011-08 on the Company's 
consolidated financial statements.
  The information provided is about the status as of the submission date of the original annual securities report in June 
2012 before correction for restatement in September, 2015.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The  Group  has  evaluated  subsequent  events  up  to  the  submission  dates  of  the  annual  securities  report  before 
restatement (June 22, 2012), and revised financial statements (September 7, 2015) in accordance with ASC 855 “Subsequent 
Events”.

RECLASSIFICATIONS
In  addition  to  the  restatements  previously  described,  certain  reclassifications  to  the  prior  year's  consolidated  financial 
statements and related footnote amounts have been made to conform to the presentation for the current year.

3. U.S. DOLLAR AMOUNTS

U.S.  dollar  amounts  are  included  solely  for  convenience  of  readers.  These  translations  should  not  be  construed  as  a 
representation that the yen could be converted into U.S. dollars at this rate or any other rates. The amounts shown in U.S. 
dollars  are  not  intended  to  be  computed  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  in  the  United 
States for the translation of foreign currency amounts. The rate of ¥82=U.S.$1, the approximate current rate of exchange 
at  March  31,  2012,  has  been  used  throughout  for  the  purpose  of  presentation  of  the  U.S.  dollar  amounts  in  the 
accompanying consolidated financial statements.

4. DISCONTINUED OPERATION

On June 17, 2010, the Company and Fujitsu Limited (“Fujitsu”) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to merge 
their mobile phone businesses, followed by a definitive contract on July 29, 2010. The purpose of this business merger 
was  to  enhance  their  handset  development  capabilities  and  at  the  same  time  to  improve  business  efficiency  by 
combining  their  mobile  phone  development  know-how  and  technological  strengths,  in  the  domestic  and  overseas 
mobile  phone  market  in  which  competition  is  intensifying.  On  October  1,  2010,  the  Company  transferred  its  mobile 
phone business to a newly established company (Fujitsu Toshiba Mobile Communications Limited), and sold 80.1% of the 
shares of the new company to Fujitsu. On April 1, 2012, the Company sold 19.9% of the shares of the new company to 
Fujitsu. All shares of the company have been transferred by this transaction.

In accordance with this contract, the Company ceased manufacturing and selling of the existing models of mobile phones 
during  the  second  quarter  of  FY2011.  However,  the  Company  continues  the  maintenance  service  of  products 
manufactured and supplied.

In  accordance  with  ASC  No.205-20  "Presentation  of  Financial  Statements-Discontinued  Operations"  (“ASC  No.205-20”), 
operating  results  relating  to  the  mobile  phone  business  are  separately  presented  as  discontinued  operations  in  the 
consolidated statement of income.

Operating results relating to the mobile phone business, which are reclassified as discontinued operations, are as follows:

Toshiba Corporation and Subsidiaries
March 31, 2012

On  March  26,  2014,  the  Company  entered  into  definitive  agreements  with  Samsung  Electronics  Co.,  Ltd.  (“Samsung 
Electronics”)  and  OPTIS  Co.,  Ltd.  ("OPTIS")  for  the  transfer  of  its  optical  disc  drive  ("ODD")  business  as  part  of  the 
Company's restructuring of the ODD business in response to the changing market environment.
  Under the terms of the agreements, Toshiba Samsung Storage Technology Corporation ("TSST"), which is the Company 
and  Samsung  Electronics'  Japan-based  joint  holding  company  for  the  ODD  business,  will  transfer  Toshiba  Samsung 
Storage Technology Korea Corporation ("TSST-K"), which is TSST's wholly-owned operating subsidiary, to OPTIS in stages 
over three years. As the first step in the transfer process, OPTIS subscribed to a new issue of TSST-K’s shares on April 29, 
2014, which diluted TSST’s shareholding in TSST-K to 50.1%.

In  accordance  with  ASC  No.205-20,  operating  results  relating  to  the  ODD  business  are  separately  presented  as 

discontinued operations in the consolidated statement of income.
  Operating results relating to the ODD business, which are reclassified as discontinued operations, are as follows.

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC  No.820  “Fair Value Measurements”  defines  fair  value  as  the  price  that  would  be  received  to  sell  an  asset  or  paid  to 
transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy 
prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels below;

Level 1 -  Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 -  Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.

Quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active.
Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable.
 Inputs  that  are  derived  principally  from  or  corroborated  by  observable  market  data  by  correlation  or  other 
means.

Level 3 -  Instruments whose significant inputs are unobservable.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis
Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

Marketable securities
Level  1  securities  represent  marketable  equity  securities  listed  in  active  markets,  which  are  valued  based  on  quoted 
market  prices  in  active  markets  with  sufficient  volume  and  frequency  of  transactions.  Level  2  securities  represent 
marketable equity securities listed in less active markets, which are valued based on quoted market prices for identical 
assets in inactive markets. Level 3 securities represent corporate debt securities and valued based on unobservable inputs 
as the markets for the assets are not active at the measurement date.

Derivative instruments
Derivative  instruments  principally  represent  forward  currency  exchange  contracts  and  interest  rate  swap  agreements, 
which are classified within Level 2. They are valued based on inputs that can be corroborated with the observable inputs 
such as foreign currency exchange rate, LIBOR and others.

Analyses of the changes in Level 3 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the years ended March 31, 2012 
and 2011 are as follows:

The proceeds from sales of available-for-sale securities for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were ¥9,297 million 
($113,378 thousand) and ¥4,751 million, respectively. The gross realized gains on those sales for the years ended March 31, 
2012 and 2011 were ¥3,425 million ($41,768 thousand) and ¥1,810 million, respectively. The gross realized losses on those 
sales for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were ¥132 million ($1,610 thousand) and ¥19 million, respectively.

  At  March  31,  2012,  the  cost  and  fair  value  of  available-for-sale  securities  in  an  unrealized  loss  position  over  12 
consecutive months were not significant.

  Aggregate  cost  of  non-marketable  equity  securities  accounted  for  under  the  cost  method  totaled  ¥52,780  million 
($643,659 thousand) and ¥39,323 million at March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. At March 31, 2012 and 2011, investments 
with an aggregate cost of ¥49,550 million ($604,268 thousand) and ¥39,237 million were not evaluated for impairment 
because (a)the Group did not estimate the fair values of those investments as it was not practicable to estimate the fair 
values of those investments and (b)the Group did not identify any events or changes in circumstances that might have 
had significant adverse effects on the fair values of those investments.

Included  in  other  expense  are  charges  of  ¥7,411  million  ($90,378  thousand)  and  ¥6,505  million  related  to  other-than-
temporary impairments in the marketable and non-marketable equity securities for the years ended March 31, 2012 and

7. SECURITIZATIONS

The  Group  has  transferred  certain  trade  notes  and  accounts  receivable  under  several  securitization  programs.  These 
securitization transactions are accounted for as a sale in accordance with ASC No.860, because the Group has relinquished 
control  of  the  receivables.  Accordingly,  the  receivables  transferred  under  these  facilities  are  excluded  from  the 
accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
  The Group recognized losses of ¥1,120 million ($13,659 thousand) and ¥1,530 million on the transfers of receivables for 
the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

  Subsequent  to  transfers,  the  Group  retains  collection  and  administrative  responsibilities  for  the  receivables  and 
deferred  proceeds  from  sale.  Servicing  fees  received  by  the  Group  approximate  the  prevailing  market  rate.  Related 
servicing assets or liabilities are immaterial to the Group's financial position. The fair value of deferred proceeds from sale 
at  the  time  of  transfer  is  determined  based  on  the  estimate  of  uncollectible  receivables,  average  collection  period  of 
receivables and discount rate and classified into level 3.

  The  table  below  summarizes  certain  cash  flows  received  from  and  paid  to  banks  or  bank-related  special  purpose 
entities ("SPEs") on the above securitization transactions.

Other intangible assets acquired during the year ended March 31, 2012 primarily consisted of software of ¥24,536 million 
($299,220  thousand).  The  weighted-average  amortization  period  of  software  for  the  year  ended  March  31,  2012  was 
approximately 5.1 years.

  The weighted-average amortization periods for other intangible assets were approximately 11.7 years and 11.4 years for 
the  years  ended  March  31,  2012  and  2011,  respectively.  Amortization  expenses  of  other  intangible  assets  subject  to 
amortization for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are ¥44,905 million ($547,622 thousand) and ¥46,543 million, 
respectively.  The  future  amortization  expense  for  each  of  the  next  5  years  relating  to  other  intangible  assets  currently 
recorded in the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2012 is estimated as follows:

As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, goodwill allocated within Social Infrastructure is ¥376,076 million ($4,586,293 thousand) 
and ¥255,459 million, respectively. The rest was mainly allocated within Digital Products.
The  Company  is  in  the  process  of  allocating  the  purchase  price  to  the  assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed  in 
accordance  with  ASC  No.805  “Business  Combinations”  (“ASC  No.805”)  but  the  process  has  not  been  finalized.  The 
provisional  amounts  as  of  March  31,  2012  will  be  generally  adjusted  by  increasing  or  decreasing  goodwill  when  the 
purchase price allocation is finalized.

Goodwill  acquired  during  the  year  ended  March  31,  2012  is  mainly  due  to  the  acquisition  of  shares  of  Landis+Gyr  AG 
(“L+G”).

12. ISSUANCE OF CONVERTIBLE BOND

In July, 2004, the Company issued ¥100,000 million Zero Coupon Convertible Bonds due 2011 (the“2011 Bonds”).

  The  bonds  include  stock  acquisition  rights  which  entitle  bondholders  to  acquire  common  stock  under  certain 
circumstances, and are exercisable on and after August 4, 2004 up to, and including, July 7, 2011.

  The exercisable period of the stock acquisition rights ended, and the principal amount of the 2011 Bonds was redeemed 
at maturity.

(The 2011 Bonds' conditions allowing exercise of stock acquisition rights)

The period prior to (but not including) July 21, 2010

The period on or after July 21, 2010

In the case that as of the last trading day of any calendar quarter, the closing price of 
the shares for any 20 trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on 
the  last  trading  day  of  such  quarter  is  more  than  120%  of  the  conversion  price  in 
effect on each such trading day.

At  any  time  after  the  closing  price  of  the  shares  on  at  least  one  trading  day  is  more 
than 120% of the conversion price in effect on each such trading day.

The 2011 Bonds were not converted into shares of common stock for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

The additional 175,295,212 shares relating to the potential conversion of the 2011 Bonds are included in the calculation of 
the diluted net income per share attributable to shareholders of the Company for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 
2011.

13. ACCRUED PENSION AND SEVERANCE COSTS

All employees who retire or are terminated are usually entitled to lump-sum severance indemnities or pension benefits 
determined by reference to service credits allocated to employees each year according to the regulation of retirement 
benefit,  length  of  service  and  conditions  under  which  their  employment  terminates.  The  obligation  for  the  severance 
indemnity benefit is provided for through accruals and funding of the defined benefit corporate pension plan.

The  Company  and  certain  subsidiaries  in  Japan  have  amended  their  pension  plan  under  the  agreement  between 
employees and managements in January 2011, and introduced Cash Balance Plan from April 2011. This plan is designed 
that  each  plan  participant  has  a  notional  account,  which  is  accumulated  based  on  salary  standards,  interest  rates  in 
financial markets and others.
  The  funding  policy  for  the  plans  is  to  contribute  amounts  required  to  maintain  sufficient  plan  assets  to  provide  for 
accrued benefits, subject to the limitation on deductibility imposed by Japanese income tax laws.

The changes in the benefit obligation and plan assets for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 and the funded status 
at March 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

March 31

Weighted-average  assumptions  used  to  determine  benefit  obligations  as  of  March  31,  2012  and  2011  and  net  periodic

The Group determines the expected long-term rate of return in consideration of the target allocation of the plan assets, 
the current expectation of long-term returns on the assets and actual returns on plan assets.

The  Group's  investment  policies  and  strategies  are  to  assure  adequate  plan  assets  to  provide  for  future  payments  of 
pension and severance benefits to participants, with reasonable risks. The Group designs the basic target allocation of 
the plan assets to mirror the best portfolio based on estimation of mid-term and long-term return on the investments. 
The Group periodically reviews the actual return on the investments and adjusts the portfolio to achieve the assumed 
long-term rate of return on the investments. The Group targets its investments in equity securities at 25 percent or more 
of total investments, and investments in equity securities, debt securities and life insurance company general accounts at 
70 percent or more of total investments.

  The equity securities are selected primarily from stocks that are listed on the securities exchanges. Prior to investing, 
the Group has investigated the business condition of the investee companies, and appropriately diversified investments 
by  type  of  industry  and  other  relevant  factors.  The  debt  securities  are  selected  primarily  from  government  bonds, 
municipal bonds and corporate bonds. Prior to investing, the Group has investigated the quality of the issue, including 
rating, interest rate, and repayment dates and has appropriately diversified the investments. Pooled funds are selected 
using  strategies  consistent  with  the  equity  securities  and  debt  securities  described  above.  Hedge  funds  are  selected 
following a variety of strategies and fund managers, and the Group has appropriately diversified the investments. Real 
estate  is  selected  for  the  eligibility  of  investment  and  expected  return  and  other  relevant  factors,  and  the  Group  has 
appropriately diversified the investments. As for investments in life insurance company general accounts, the contracts 
with the insurance companies include a guaranteed interest and return of capital.

Each level into which assets are categorized is based on inputs used to measure the fair value of the assets, and does not 
necessarily indicate the risks or ratings of the assets.

  Level  1  plan  assets  represent  marketable  equity  securities,  pooled  funds  and  government  bonds,  which  are  valued 
based on quoted market prices in active markets with sufficient volume and frequency of transactions. Level 2 plan assets 
represent pooled funds that invest in equity securities and debt securities, corporate bonds and life insurance company 
general  accounts.  Pooled  funds,  which  are  classified  as  Level  2  asset,  are  valued  at  their  net  asset  values  that  are 
calculated by the sponsor of the fund. Corporate bonds are valued based on quoted market prices for identical assets in 
inactive markets. Life insurance company general accounts are valued based on contracts. Level 3 plan assets represent 
pooled funds that invest in debt securities, hedge funds and real estate, which are valued based on unobservable inputs 
as the markets for the assets are not active at the measurement date.

An analysis of the changes in Level 3 plan assets measured at fair value for the year ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are as 
follows:

¥15,873  million  in  the  System  LSI  business.  These  impairment  losses  are  recorded  are  included  in  cost  of  sales  in  the 
consolidated statement of income.
Impairment losses in the Visual Products and the PC businesses are included in the Digital Products segment, while those 
in the Analog Imaging IC and the System LSI businesses are included in the Electronic Devices segment.

18. INCOME TAXES

The Group is subject to a number of different income taxes which, in the aggregate, result in an effective statutory tax 
rate in Japan of approximately 40.7 percent for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. 
  Amendments  to  the  Japanese  tax  regulations  were  enacted  into  law  on  November  30,  2011.  As  a  result  of  these 
amendments,  the  effective  statutory  tax  rate  used  to  calculate  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  was  changed  from 
existing 40.7 percent to 38.0 percent for temporary difference expected to be eliminated during the period from the fiscal 
year beginning on April 1, 2012 to the fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2014, and 35.6 percent for temporary difference 
expected to be eliminated in and after the fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2015. The effect of a re-evaluation of deferred 
tax  assets  and  liabilities  for  this  change  in  the  tax  rate  was  reflected  in  income  taxes  in  the  consolidated  statement  of 
income for the year ended March 31, 2012.
  A reconciliation table between the reported income tax expense and the amount computed by multiplying the income 
from continuing operations, before income taxes and noncontrolling interests by the applicable statutory tax rate is as

Deferred tax liabilities included in other current liabilities and other liabilities at March 31, 2012 and 2011 were ¥86,370 
million ($1,053,293 thousand) and ¥75,144 million, respectively.
  The  net  changes  in  the  total  valuation  allowance  for  the  years  ended  March  31,  2012  and  2011  were  a  decrease  of 
¥64,268 million ($783,756 thousand) and ¥28,273 million, respectively.
  The amounts of adjustments of the beginning-of-the-year balance of the valuation allowance because of a change in 
judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax assets in future years for the year ended March 31, 2012 were 
¥36,041 million ($439,524 thousand). The amounts of adjustments for the year ended March 31, 2011 were ¥11,701 million.

72 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2012

 
 
  The Group's tax loss carryforwards for the corporate and local taxes at March 31, 2012 amounted to ¥601,740 million 
($7,338,293 thousand) and ¥742,306 million ($9,052,512 thousand), respectively, the majority of which will expire during 
the period from the year ending March 2013 through 2021. The Group utilized tax loss carryforwards of ¥126,432 million 
($1,541,854  thousand)  and  ¥119,953  million  to  reduce  current  corporate  taxes  and  of  ¥120,232  million  ($1,466,244 
thousand) and ¥68,530 million to reduce current local taxes during the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
  Realization  of  tax  loss  carryforwards  and  other  deferred  tax  assets  is  dependent  on  the  Group  generating  sufficient 
taxable income prior to their expiration or the Group exercising certain available tax strategies. Although realization is not 
assured, management believes it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets, less the valuation allowance, 
will be realized. The amount of such net deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near 
term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced.

A reconciliation table of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

Year ended March 31

Balance at beginning of year
Additions for tax positions of the current year
Additions for tax positions of prior years

The total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits that would reduce the effective tax rate, if recognized, are ¥1,715 million 
($20,915 thousand) and ¥2,274 million at March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
  The  Group  recognizes  interest  and  penalties  accrued  related  to  unrecognized  tax  benefits  in  income  taxes  in  the 
consolidated statement of income. Both interest and penalties accrued as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, and interest and 
penalties included in income taxes for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are not material.
  The Group believes its estimates and assumptions of unrecognized tax benefits are reasonable and based on each of 
the  items  of  which  the  Group  is  aware  at  March  31,  2012,  no  significant  changes  to  the  unrecognized  tax  benefits  are 
expected within the next twelve months.
  The  Group  files  income  tax  returns  in  Japan  and  various  foreign  tax  jurisdictions.  In  Japan,  the  Group  is  no  longer 
subject to regular income tax examinations by the tax authority for years before the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008 with 
few exceptions. In other major foreign tax jurisdictions, the Group is no longer subject to regular income tax examinations 
by tax authorities for years before the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006 with few exceptions.

COMMON STOCK
The total number of authorized shares of the Company is 10,000,000,000. The total number of shares issued for the years 
ended March 31,2012 and 2011 are 4,237,602,026.

RETAINED EARNINGS
Retained earnings at March 31, 2012 and 2011 included a legal reserve of ¥29,286 million ($357,146 thousand) and ¥24,129 
million, respectively. The Corporation Law of Japan provides that an amount equal to 10% of distributions from retained 
earnings paid by the Company and its Japanese subsidiaries be appropriated as a legal reserve. No further appropriations 
are required when the total amount of the additional paid-in capital and the legal reserve equals 25% of their respective 
stated capital. The Corporation Law of Japan also provides that additional paid-in capital and legal reserve are available 
for distributions by the resolution of the stockholders.
  The amount of retained earnings available for distributions is based on the Company's retained earnings determined in 
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Japan and the Corporation Law of Japan. Retained earnings 
at March 31, 2012 do not reflect current year-end distributions of ¥16,939 million ($206,573 thousand) which started to be 
paid from June 1, 2012. 
  Retained earnings at March 31, 2012 included the Group's equity in undistributed earnings of equity method investees 
in the amount of ¥105,780 million ($1,290,000 thousand).
  The Company resolved, at the board of directors meeting held on May 7, 2010, the submission of the disposition of the 
Company's other capital surplus based on Article 452 of the Corporation Law of Japan. As a result, the additional paid-in 
capital was reduced by ¥46,772 million, and the retained earnings was increased by the same amount effective June 30,

TAKEOVER DEFENSE MEASURE
The Company introduced a plan for countermeasures to any large-scale acquisitions of the Company's shares (the “Plan”), 
based on the shareholders' approval of the Plan for the purpose of protection and enhancement of the corporate value of 
the Company and the common interests of shareholders.
  Specifically, if an acquirer commences or plans to commence an acquisition or a tender offer that would result in the 
acquirer holding 20% or more of the shares issued by the Company, the Company will require the acquirer to provide the 
necessary information in advance to its board of directors. The Special Committee that solely consists of outside directors 
who  are  independent  from  the  Company's  management  will,  at  its  discretion,  obtain  advice  from  outside  experts, 
evaluate and consider the details of the acquisition, disclose to the Company's shareholders the necessary information 
regarding  the  acquisition,  evaluate,  consider  and  disclose  any  alternative  proposal  presented  by  the  Company's 
representative executive officers, and negotiate with the acquirer. If the acquirer does not comply with the procedures 
under  the  Plan,  or  the  acquisition  would  damage  the  corporate  value  of  the  Company  or  the  common  interests  of  its 
shareholders, and if the acquisition satisfies the triggering requirements set out in the Plan, the countermeasures (a gratis 
allotment of stock acquisition rights (shinkabu yoyakuken no mushou wariate), with a condition of which will be that they 
cannot  be  exercised  by  acquirers  or  the  like  and  subject  to  call  to  the  effect  that  the  Company  can  acquire  stock 
acquisition rights from those other than such acquirers in exchange for shares of the Company) are to be implemented in 
accordance  with  the  recommendation  by  the  Special  Committee  or  the  resolution  passed  at  the  general  meeting  for 
confirming shareholders’intention and the Company will ensure the corporate value of the Company and the common 
interests of shareholders.

Due  to  their  anti-dilutive  effect,  incremental  shares  from  assumed  conversions  of  dilutive  convertible  debentures  are 
excluded from the calculation of diluted net losses from discontinued operations per share attributable to shareholders 
of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. 
  Net  earnings  per  share  attributable  to  shareholders  of  the  Company  are  computed  independently  for  income  from 
continuing operations attributable to shareholders of the Company, losses from discontinued operations attributable to 
shareholders of the Company, and net income attributable to shareholders of the Company.
Consequently,  the  sum  of  diluted  per  share  amounts  from  continuing  operations  and  discontinued  operations  for  the 
year ended March 31, 2011 may not equal diluted per share amounts for net earnings.

21. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

(1) DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Group operates internationally, giving rise to exposure to market risks from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange 
and interest rates. In the normal course of its risk management efforts, the Group employs a variety of derivative financial 
instruments,  which  are  consisted  principally  of  forward  exchange  contracts,  interest  rate  swap  agreements,  currency 
swap  agreements  and  currency  options  to  reduce  its  exposures.  The  Group  has  policies  and  procedures  for  risk 
management  and  the  approval,  reporting  and  monitoring  of  derivative  financial  instruments.  The  Group's  policies 
prohibit holding or issuing derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
  The Group is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to derivative financial 
instruments,  but  the  Group  does  not  anticipate  any  credit-related  loss  from  nonperformance  by  the  counterparties 
because the counterparties are financial institutions of high credit standing and contracts are diversified across a number 
of major financial institutions.
  The  Group  has  entered  into  forward  exchange  contracts  with  financial  institutions  as  hedges  against  fluctuations  in 
foreign  currency  exchange  rates  on  monetary  assets  and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign  currencies.  The  forward 
exchange  contracts  related  to  accounts  receivable  and  payable,  and  commitments  on  future  trade  transactions 
denominated in foreign currencies, mature primarily within a few years of the balance sheet date.

Interest rate swap agreements, currency swap agreements and currency options are used to limit the Group's exposure 
to  losses  in  relation  to  underlying  debt  instruments  and  accounts  receivable  and  payable  denominated  in  foreign 
currencies resulting from adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange and interest rates. These agreements mature 
during the period 2012 to 2018. 
  Forward  exchange  contracts,  interest  rate  swap  agreements,  currency  swap  agreements  and  currency  options  are 
designated as either fair value hedges or cash flow hedges, except for some contracts, depending on accounts receivable 
and  payable  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  or  commitments  on  future  trade  transactions  and  the  interest  rate 
characteristics of the underlying debt as discussed below.

Fair Value Hedge Strategy
The forward exchange contracts and currency swap agreements utilized by the Group effectively reduce fluctuation in 
fair value of accounts receivable and payable denominated in foreign currencies.
  The interest rate swap agreements utilized by the Group effectively convert a portion of its fixed-rate debt to a floating-
rate basis.
  The gain or loss on the derivative financial instruments designated as fair value hedges is offset by the loss or gain on 
the hedged items in the same location of the consolidated statement of income.

Cash Flow Hedge Strategy
The forward exchange contracts utilized by the Group effectively reduce fluctuation in cash flow from commitments on 
future trade transactions denominated in foreign currencies for the next 6 years.
  The  interest  rate  swap  agreements  utilized  by  the  Group  effectively  convert  a  portion  of  its  floating-rate  debt  to  a 
fixed-rate basis for the next 6 years.
  The  Group  expects  to  reclassify  ¥512  million  ($6,244  thousand)  of  net  loss  on  derivative  financial  instruments  from 
accumulated other comprehensive loss to net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of the Company during the next 
12 months due to the collection of accounts receivable denominated in foreign currencies and the payments of accounts 
payable denominated in foreign currencies and variable interest associated with the floating-rate debts.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments Strategy
The  Group  has  entered  into  certain  forward  exchange  contracts,  interest  rate  swap  agreements,  currency  swap 
agreements and currency options to offset the earnings impact related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates 
on monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and in interest rates on debt instruments. Although 
some  of  these  contracts  have  not  been  designated  as  hedges  as  required  in  order  to  apply  hedge  accounting,  the 
contracts  are  effective  from  an  economic  perspective.  The  changes  in  the  fair  value  of  those  contracts  are  recorded  in 
earnings immediately.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Toshiba Corporation and Subsidiaries
March 31, 2012

The above table excludes the financial instruments for which fair values approximate their carrying amounts and those 
related to leasing activities. The table also excludes marketable securities and other investments which are disclosed in 
Note 6.

In assessing the fair value of these financial instruments, the Group uses a variety of methods and assumptions, which 
are based on estimates of market conditions and risks existing at that time. For certain instruments, including cash and 
cash  equivalents,  notes  and  accounts  receivable-trade,  short-term  borrowings,  notes  and  accounts  payable-trade  and 
accounts  payable-other  and  accrued  expenses,  it  is  assumed  that  the  carrying  amount  approximated  fair  value  for  the 
majority of these instruments because of their short maturities. Quoted market prices are used for a part of marketable 
securities and other investments. For long-term debt, fair value is estimated using market quotes or estimated discounted 
value  of  future  cash  flows  when  market  quotes  are  not  available,  and  is  classified  within  Level  2  or  Level  3.  Other 
techniques,  such  as  estimated  discounted  value  of  future  cash  flows,  and  replacement  cost,  are  used  to  determine  fair 
value for the remaining financial instruments. These fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be 
realized in a current market exchange.

The  effect  of  derivative  instruments  on  the  consolidated  statement  of  income  for  the  year  ended  March  31,  2012  is  as

22. LEASES

The  Group  leases  manufacturing  equipment,  office  and  warehouse  space,  and  certain  other  assets  under  operating 
leases.
Rent expenses under such leases for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were ¥115,110 million ($1,403,780 thousand) 
and ¥147,760 million, respectively.
  The Group also leases certain machinery and equipment which are accounted for as capital leases. As of March 31, 2012 
and 2011, the costs under capital leases were approximately ¥64,723 million ($789,305 thousand) and ¥73,847 million, and 
the  related  accumulated  amortization  were  approximately  ¥30,482  million  ($371,732  thousand)  and  ¥30,861  million, 
respectively.
  As  of  March  31,  2011,  the  costs  under  capital  leases  from  TFC  and  Toshiba  Medical  Finance  Co.,  Ltd.,  affiliates  of  the 
Company,  were  approximately  ¥47,800  million,  and  the  related  accumulated  amortization  was  approximately  ¥22,100 
million.  As  disclosed  in  Note  28,  on  February  1,  2012,  the  Company  increased  its  ownership  in  TFC,  and  consequently 
acquired the controlling financial interest of TFC. As a consequence, the costs under capital leases from affiliates of the 
Company and the related accumulated amortization as of March 31, 2012, were not significant.
  Minimum  lease  payments  for  the  Group's  capital  and  non-cancelable  operating  leases  as  of  March  31,  2012  are  as

23. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Commitments for the purchase of property, plant and equipment, and unconditional purchase obligation for license fees 
outstanding at March 31, 2012 totaled approximately ¥31,151 million ($379,890 thousand).
  As  of  March  31,  2012,  contingent  liabilities,  other  than  guarantees  disclosed  in  Note  24,  approximated  ¥434  million 
($5,293 thousand) mainly for recourse obligations related to notes receivable transferred.

24. GUARANTEES

GUARANTEES OF UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES AND THIRD PARTY DEBT
The Group guarantees debt as well as certain financial obligations of unconsolidated affiliates and third parties to support 
the sale of the Group's products and services. Expiration dates vary from 2012 to 2020 as of March 31, 2012 or terminate 
on  payment  and/or  cancellation  of  the  obligation.  A  payment  by  the  Group  would  be  triggered  by  the  failure  of  the 
guaranteed party to fulfill its obligation under the guarantee. The maximum potential payments under these guarantees 
were ¥308,445 million ($3,761,524 thousand) as of March 31, 2012.

GUARANTEES OF EMPLOYEES' HOUSING LOANS
The  Group  guarantees  housing  loans  of  its  employees.  Expiration  dates  vary  from  2012  to  2032.  A  payment  would  be 
triggered  by  failure  of  the  guaranteed  party  to  fulfill  its  obligation  covered  by  the  guarantee.  The  maximum  potential 
payments  under  these  guarantees  were  ¥6,059  million  ($73,890  thousand)  as  of  March  31,  2012.  However,  the  Group 
expects that the majority of such payments would be reimbursed through the Group's insurance policy.

RESIDUAL VALUE GUARANTEES UNDER SALE AND LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS
The Group has entered into several sale and leaseback transactions in which certain manufacturing equipment was sold 
and leased back. The Group may be required to make payments for residual value guarantees in connection with these 
transactions. The operating leases will expire on various dates through July 2016. The maximum potential payments by 
the Group for such residual value guarantees were ¥22,837 million ($278,500 thousand) as of March 31, 2012.

GUARANTEES OF DEFAULTED NOTES AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The Group has transferred trade notes and accounts receivable under several securitization programs. Upon certain sales 
of trade notes and accounts receivable, the Group holds a repurchase obligation, which the Group is required to perform 
upon  default  of  the  trade  notes  and  accounts  receivable.  The  trade  notes  and  accounts  receivable  generally  mature 
within 3 months. The maximum potential payment for such repurchase obligation was ¥7,862 million ($95,878 thousand) 
as of March 31, 2012.

The carrying amounts of the liabilities for the Group's obligations under the guarantees described above as of March 31, 
2012 were not significant.

WARRANTY
Estimated  warranty  costs  are  accrued  for  at  the  time  a  product  is  sold  to  a  customer.  Estimates  for  warranty  costs  are 
made based primarily on historical warranty claim experience.

25. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In January 2007, the European Commission adopted a decision imposing fines on 19 companies, including the Company, 
for  violating  EU  competition  laws  in  the  gas  insulated  switchgear  market.  The  Company  was  individually  fined  €86.25 
million  and  was  also  fined  €4.65  million  jointly  and  severally  with  Mitsubishi  Electric  Corporation.  Following  its  own 
investigation, the Company contends that it has not found any infringement of EU competition laws, and it brought an 
action to the General Court of the European Union seeking annulment of the European Commission's decision in April 
2007.  In  July  2011,  the  General  Court  of  the  European  Union  handed  down  a  judgment  and  annulled  the  entire  fine 
imposed  on  the  Company,  but  upheld  the  European  Commission's  determination  about  alleged  anti-competitive 
behavior.  The  Company  appealed  to  the  European  Court  of  Justice  in  September  2011,  since  there  was  certain 
inconsistency  between  the  contents  of  the  judgment  and  the  facts  as  recognized  by  the  Company.  The  Company  will 
assert its position in the appeal.

In August 2007, General Electric Capital Leasing Corporation (currently General Electric Japan Inc.("GE Japan")) filed a 
lawsuit against six companies including the Company and its two subsidiaries for compensation of damages caused by 
false transactions. Although such transactions were conducted by a former employee of the Group without any relation 
to the business operation of the Group, GE Japan alleged the damages in accordance with the employer liability clause of 
Civil  Code.  In  October  2010,  GE  Japan  settled  the  case  with  Transcosmos  Inc.  and  Parametric  Technology  Corporation 
Japan, both of which were defendants, and assigned the claims to them. In July 2011, Tokyo District Court ordered the 
Company to pay approximately ¥4,550 million ($55,488 thousand) but the Company immediately appealed against this 
court  ruling  because  the  Company  believes  it  is  not  responsible  for  the  illegal  transactions  conducted  by  the  former 
employee.

In  February  2011,  the  Ministry  of  Defense  of  Japan  ("MOD")  cancelled  contract  for  development  and  manufacture  of 
"reconnaissance system for F-15" between MOD and the Company. In July 2011, the Company filed a lawsuit against MOD 
to Tokyo District Court seeking payment of approximately ¥9,319 million ($113,646 thousand) including payment for parts 
which have been already completed. The Company properly executed its duties pursuant to conditions of the contract. 
Therefore, the Company thinks that MOD's cancellation of the contract is unreasonable and will assert its position in the 
Court.
  The Group undertakes global business operations and is involved from time to time in disputes, including lawsuits and 
other legal proceedings and investigations by relevant authorities. There is a possibility that such case may arise in the 
future.  Due  to  differences  in  judicial  systems  and  the  uncertainties  inherent  in  such  proceedings,  the  Group  may  be 
subject to a ruling requiring payment of amounts far exceeding its expectations. Any judgment or decision unfavorable 
to the Group could have a materially adverse effect on the Group's business, results of operations or financial condition. 
The possibility cannot be stated as nil that, under certain circumstances, an action is filed that has an extremely remote 
chance of a ruling that requires payment but involves an appeal for a significant amount of money.
  The  Group's  Management  believes  that  there  are  meritorious  defenses  to  all  of  these  legal  procedures,  including 
lawsuits  and  investigations.  Based  on  the  information  currently  available  to  both  the  Group  and  its  legal  counsel, 
Management  believes  that  such  legal  procedures,  if  any,  would  not  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  the  financial 
position or the results of operations of the Group.
  The  information  provided  is  about  the  status  as  of  the  submission  date  of  the  annual  securities  report  before 
correction.

26. ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES

The  Japanese  environmental  regulation,  "Law  Concerning  Special  Measure  against  poly  chlorinated  biphenyl  ("PCB") 
waste" requires PCB waste holders to dispose of all PCB waste by July 2016. The Group accrued ¥9,021 million ($110,012 
thousand)  and  ¥9,213  million  at  March  31,  2012  and  2011,  respectively,  for  environmental  remediation  and  restoration 
costs for products or equipment with PCB which some Group's operations in Japan have retained.
  The  Westinghouse  Group,  consolidated  subsidiaries  of  the  Company,  is  subject  to  federal,  state  and  local  laws  and 
regulations  relating  to  the  discharge  of  pollutants  into  the  environment,  the  disposal  of  hazardous  wastes  and  other 
related activities affecting the environment, and which have had and will continue to have an impact on the Group. It is 
difficult to estimate the timing and ultimate costs to be incurred in the future due to uncertainties about the status of 
laws, regulations and technology; the adequacy of information available for individual sites; the extended time periods 
over  which  site  remediation  occurs;  the  availability  of  waste  disposal  capacity;  and  the  identification  of  new  sites.  The 
Group  has,  however,  recognized  an  estimated  liability  of  ¥12,572  million  ($153,317  thousand)  and  ¥15,624  million  as  of 
March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, measured in current dollars, for those sites where it is probable that a loss has been 
incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
  The  accrual  will  be  adjusted  as  assessment  and  remediation  efforts  progress  or  as  additional  technical  or  legal 
information become available. Management is of the opinion that the ultimate costs in excess of the amount accrued, if 
any, would not have a material adverse effect on the financial position or the results of operations of the Group.

27. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

The  Group  records  asset  retirement  obligations  in  accordance  with  ASC  No.410  "Asset  Retirement  and  Environmental 
Obligations".
  Asset retirement obligation was related primarily to the decommissioning of nuclear power facilities. These obligations 
address the decommissioning, clean up and release for acceptable alternate use of such facilities.
  The changes in the carrying amount of asset retirement obligations for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are as

Vital Images, Inc.
On April 27, 2011 (Eastern Standard Time), Toshiba Medical Systems Corporation ("TMSC"), a consolidated subsidiary of the 
Company, and Vital Images, Inc. ("VITAL"), a leading provider of advanced visualization and analysis software, entered into 
a definitive agreement pursuant to which a subsidiary of TMSC ("Merger Sub") would acquire all of the outstanding shares 
of  VITAL  for  $18.75  per  share.  In  response  to  the  commencement  of  the  take-over  bid,  approximately  86.7%  of  the 
outstanding shares of VITAL were validly tendered in the offering period. In addition, Merger Sub exercised its option to 
purchase additional shares directly from VITAL, resulting in the acquisition of more than 90% of the outstanding shares. 
On June 16, 2011 (Eastern Standard Time), Merger Sub merged with VITAL, and on the same date, remaining shares that 
were  not  validly  tendered  have  been  converted  into  the  right  to  receive  cash.  As  a  result,  VITAL  has  become  a  wholly 
owned subsidiary of TMSC. This transaction will allow TMSC to significantly strengthen its Imaging Solutions business by 
integrating  technologies  of  TMSC  and  VITAL  to  meet  the  global  demand  for  advanced  visualization  and  imaging 
informatics provided to healthcare professionals and healthcare IT providers.
  The Group allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in accordance with ASC No.805 
"Business Combinations" ("ASC No.805").
  The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities 
assumed as of the acquisition date:

Identifiable intangible assets acquired mainly consist of customer relationships. The Group is amortizing the intangible 
assets over a weighted-average estimated life of 8.0 years.
  The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, amounted 
to ¥7,214 million ($87,975 thousand), which was recorded as goodwill and allocated within Social Infrastructure. Among 
the  factors  that  contributed  to  the  recognition  of  goodwill  were  the  efforts  of  dedicated  sales  force  and  the  strong 
relationships developed with hospitals, university medical schools and distribution partners.
  Operating results of VITAL are included in the Company's consolidated statement of income from the acquisition date. 
These amounts are not significant.

Landis+Gyr AG
On May 19, 2011 (Japan Standard Time), the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the entire shares of 
L+G, and consequently acquired L+G for approximately $2.3 billion in cash on July 29, 2011 (Greenwich Time).
  The Company also entered into a shareholders' agreement and a share purchase agreement with Innovation Network 
Corporation of Japan ("INCJ"). The agreements prescribe INCJ's participation to invest in L+G. The Company transferred 
all  shares  in  L+G  and  a  part  of  receivables  ($1.7  billion  in  total)  to  a  Special  Purpose  Entity  ("SPE")(Present  Landis+Gyr 
Holdings A.G.) established in Switzerland for the purpose of managing L+G, and sold 40% of share in the SPE ($680 million 
in total) to INCJ on August 22, 2011 (Japan Standard Time).
  L+G  is  a  leading  provider  of  smart  meter,  significant  component  for  constructing  smart  grid,  with  having  over  8,000 
utility customers and strong sales network around the world. L+G provides a wide range of smart meter solutions, from 
advanced interactive communication technologies to various applications and services based on data collected from the 
meters.  This  transaction  will  allow  the  Company  to  provide  the  sophisticated  one-stop  solutions  that  offers  optimum 
power  management  and  effective  applications  based  on  cloud  computing  technologies  by  the  combination  of  L+G's 
extensive  customer  networks,  advanced  services  and  technologies,  with  the  Company's  comprehensive  expertise  in 
energy management for utility companies such as power companies and the energy consumers in corporate buildings 
and household sectors. The Group positions the Smart Community business as a new focus area and is determined to 
maximize  its  presence  and  capabilities  in  the  market.  Upon  completion  of  the  acquisition,  the  Company  will  promote 
these  synergies  through  alliances,  centering  on  cloud  computing  and  solutions  services,  and  aim  to  expand  its  global 
operations and to grow the Smart Community business.

29. Variable Interest Entities

The Group recognizes entities, in accordance with ASC No.810, as VIEs that have either (a) equity investors whose voting 
right is limited and not having an ability to control it effectively or (b) insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its 
activities  without  additional  subordinated  financial  support.  The  Group  retains  variable  interests  through  equity 
investments, loans and guarantees. In evaluating whether the Group is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and consolidates 
it, the Group assesses if the Group has both (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact 
the  VIE's  economic  performance  and  (b)  the  obligation  to  absorb  losses  or  the  right  to  receive  benefits  that  could 
potentially be significant to the VIE.

Consolidated Variable Interest Entities
VIEs, of which the Group is the primary beneficiary, are involved in Social Infrastructure, and most of those are entities 
involved in the Power and Social Infrastructure Systems. The Group has both the power to direct the activities that most 
significantly affect those VIEs' economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits 
from the VIEs. The Group is also required to contribute capital to each VIE on an as needed basis based on percentage of 
ownership interest.
  As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, the total assets of VIEs on the consolidated balance sheet were ¥9,544 million ($116,390 
thousand)  and  ¥8,986  million,  and  the  total  liabilities  of  VIEs  on  the  consolidated  balance  sheet  were  ¥5,599  million 
($68,280 thousand) and ¥2,669 million, respectively. The assets consisted primarily of accounts receivable, and property, 
plant and equipment. The liabilities consisted primarily of accounts payable and long-term debt. The assets are restricted 
for use only by those VIEs, and are not available for the Group's general operations. In addition, the creditors or beneficial 
interest holders of those VIEs do not have recourse to the general credit of the Group.

Unconsolidated Variable Interest Entities
VIEs, of which the Group is not the primary beneficiary but retains significant variable interests, are involved in Electronic 
Devices and Social Infrastructure. Unconsolidated VIEs involved in Electronic Devices are joint ventures established with 
SanDisk  Corporation  ("SanDisk")  for  the  purpose  of  strengthening  the  production  of  NAND  flash  memories.  For  those 
joint  ventures,  the  Group  and  SanDisk  have  an  equally  sharing  power.  Unconsolidated  VIEs  involved  in  Social 
Infrastructure are established for the purpose of supplying stable electric power systems, and providing electric services 
and equipments to electric power operators. The Group is not the primary beneficiary of those VIEs because the Group 
does  not  have  the  power  to  direct  the  activities  that  most  significantly  affect  those  VIEs'  economic  performance.  The 
Group accounts for those VIEs under the equity method.
  As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, the total assets of those VIEs, carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that relate to the 
Group's variable interests in the VIEs and the Group's maximum exposures to losses as a result of the Group's involvement 
with the VIEs are summarized as follows:

Carrying amounts of assets that relate to the Group's variable interests in the VIEs consisted primarily of investment in and 
advances to affiliates. The Group's maximum exposures to losses, which include primarily equity investments, loans and 
guarantees, generally do not have relations to the losses anticipated to be incurred from the Group's involvement with 
the VIEs and are considered to exceed the anticipated losses.

30. SEGMENT INFORMATION

In accordance with the provisions of ASC No.280 "Segment Reporting", the segments reported below are the components 
of  the  Group  for  which  discrete  financial  information  is  available  and  whose  results  are  regularly  reviewed  by  the 
management of the Group to make decisions about allocation on resources and assess performance.
  The Group evaluates the performance of its business segments based on segment operating income (loss). The Group's 
segment  operating  income  (loss)  is  derived  by  deducting  the  segment's  cost  of  sales  and  selling,  general  and 
administrative expenses from net sales. Certain operating expenses such as restructuring charges and gains (losses) from 
the sales or disposal of fixed assets are not included in it.
  The  Group  has  5  business  segments,  (1)Digital  Products,  (2)Electronic  Devices,  (3)Social  Infrastructure,  (4)Home

Acquisition of IBM's Retail Store Point-of-Sale Solutions Business
Pursuant  to  resolutions  adopted  at  a  board  meeting  held  on  April  17,  2012,  Toshiba  TEC  Corporation  (“TEC”),  a 
consolidated subsidiary of the Company, entered into a definitive agreement under which TEC will acquire International 
Business  Machines  Corporation  (“IBM”)  's  Retail  Store  Solutions  business.  The  purchase  price  is  approximately  $850 
million.  The  transaction  is  expected  to  close  late  in  June  or  in  July,  2012  subject  to  the  satisfaction  of  regulatory 
requirements  and  customary  closing  conditions,  but  it  has  not  been  finalized  as  of  the  submission  date  of  the  original 
annual securities report in June 2012 before correction for restatements in September 2015.
  A  new  holding  company  will  be  established  in  Japan.  This  company  will  hold  the  equity  of  a  number  of  companies 
organized in countries around the world. TEC will acquire an 80.1 percent interests in the holding company and in order 
to  promote  a  smooth  transfer,  IBM  will  hold  a  19.9  percent  interests  in  the  holding  company.  Eventually,  the  holding 
company will become a wholly owned subsidiary of TEC.
  A portion of the aggregate purchase price will be paid on the closing date (51.0 percent) and on the first anniversary of 
the closing (29.1 percent). The remaining portion will be paid on the third anniversary in exchange for IBM’s 19.9 percent 
equity interest.
  Upon  completion  of  the  transaction,  TEC  would  become  the  world’s  foremost  retail  point-  of-sale  systems  company, 
offering high-quality hardware, software and integrated in-store solutions worldwide to meet the growing demand for 
multi-channel commerce.
  The information provided is about the status as of the submission date of the original annual securities report in June

Independent Auditor’s Report

The Board of Directors of
Toshiba Corporation

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  of  Toshiba  Corporation  (the  “Company”)  and  its 
consolidated  subsidiaries,  which  comprise  the  consolidated  balance  sheet  as  at  March  31,  2012,  and  the  consolidated 
statements of income, comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for the year then ended and the related notes to 
the consolidated financial statements, all expressed in Japanese yen.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management  is  responsible  for  the  preparation  and  fair  presentation  of  these  consolidated  financial  statements  in 
conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and for designing and operating such internal control as 
management  determines  is  necessary  to  enable  the  preparation  and  fair  presentation  of  the  consolidated  financial 
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted 
our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Japan. Those standards require that we plan and 
perform  the  audit  to  obtain  reasonable  assurance  about  whether  the  consolidated  financial  statements  are  free  from 
material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated 
financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of 
material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. The purpose of an audit of 
the consolidated financial statements is not to express an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control, but 
in  making  these  risk  assessments  the  auditor  considers  internal  controls  relevant  to  the  entity’s  preparation  and  fair 
presentation  of  the  consolidated  financial  statements  in  order  to  design  audit  procedures  that  are  appropriate  in  the 
circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness 
of  accounting  estimates  made  by  management,  as  well  as  evaluating  the  overall  presentation  of  the  consolidated 
financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion
In  our  opinion,  the  consolidated  financial  statements  referred  to  above  present  fairly,  in  all  material  respects,  the 
consolidated  financial  position  of  Toshiba  Corporation  and  its  consolidated  subsidiaries  as  at  March  31,  2012,  and  their 
consolidated financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted 
accounting principles.

Emphasis of Matter
As  discussed  in  “Restatement  of  previously  issued  consolidated  financial  statements”  in  the  consolidated  financial 
statements,  the  Company  has  amended  the  consolidated  financial  statements.  We  issued  the  Independent  Auditor’s 
Report before the restatement of the consolidated financial statements on June 22, 2012. 
Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.

Convenience Translation
We  have  reviewed  the  translation  of  these  consolidated  financial  statements  into  U.S.  dollars,  presented  for  the 
convenience  of  readers,  and,  in  our  opinion,  the  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  have  been  properly 
translated on the basis described in Note 3.
