The production and printing of this report reflect the following considerations :

Paper

Printing

Use of FSC-certified Paper

Use of Forest Thinning Support Paper

A-(2)-060001

Paper certified by Forest 

Stewardship Council (FSC) 

is used, which is made 

from wood from 

FSC-certified forests.

Toshiba Group supports forest thinning project 

in  Misawa  City,  Aomori  prefecture,  aiming  to 

preserve the nature for the next generation.

Tree use cycle mark

We  believe  that  it  is  important  to  make 

proactive  use  of  domestic  wood  products 

and  to  grow  forests,  and  we  support  the 

forestry  Agency’s  efforts  to  promote  “tree 

trainer  activies”.  Domestic  timber  provided 

the raw material for the paper on which this 

report is printed, and its use contribused to 

increased absorption of CO2 by native forests.

Waterless Printing

Waterless  printing,  a  printing  process 

that  eliminates  the  use  of  water,  is 

adopted,  taking  advantage  of  the 

characteristics of printing plates made 

of ink-shedding material.

Non-VOC Ink

100%  vegetable  ink  containing  no 

volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is 

used.

Notes:  1) Toshiba Group’s Consolidated Financial Statements are based on US generally accepted accounting princiles.

2)   The  Healthcare  Systems  &  Services  segment  and  Home  Appriances  business  are  classified  as  discontinued  operations  in  accordance  with  ASC  205-20  “Presentation  of  Financial  Statements  - 

Discontinued Operations”. Results of the past fiscal year have been revised to reflect these changes.

3) Consumption tax is not included in the Net sales.
4)   Operating income (loss) is derived by deducting the cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses and impairment loss on goodwill 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 legal settlement costs are not charged to operating income (loss).
5) Total equity is the sum of Equity attributable to shareholders of the Company and Equity attributable to noncontrolling interests.
6)   The calculation of “Per share of common stock”, “Shareholders’ equity ratio” and “Return on equity ratio” is based on Equity attributable to shareholders of the Company of consolidated balance 

sheets.

7)   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.

8)   Diluted  net  earnings  per  share  attributable  to  shareholders  of  the  Company  for  the  years  ended  on  or  after  March  31,  2013  have  been  omitted  because  the  Company  did  not  have  potential 

common stock that were outstanding for the period.

9) Price-to-earnings ratio (PER) for the years ended on March 31, 2016 and 2015 have been omitted because of Net loss attributable to shareholders of the Company.

10) The number of employees are the sum of the workers who are expected to work or have worked over a year between the regular employees and fixed-term emproyees.

The  US  economy  generally  saw  solid  growth.  With  monetary  easing,  the  Eurozone  economy  saw  moderate  growth, 
particularly Germany. The Indian economy saw continued high growth. On the other hand, the Chinese economy slowed, 
reflecting  adjustments  in  production  and  investments  in  sectors  with  overcapacity,  including  steel,  coal  and  the  real 
estate market. International financial markets fell into turmoil last summer and at the beginning of 2016, reflecting sharp 
falls in stock prices and the Chinese yuan.

In Japan, as employment prospects and personal income continued to improve, consumer spending patterns generally 
remained firm, and capital investment trended toward recovery. Exports varied by sector, showing either a slowdown or 
remaining at the same level, due to slowdowns in overseas markets and other factors.

In  the  current  fiscal  year,  the  overall  global  economy  is  expected  to  see  moderate  growth.  The  Chinese  economy  is 
expected to continue to slow down, but the US economy is expected to see continued solid growth. The forecast for the 
Japanese economy is for relatively weak growth toward a gradual recovery.

The Group, in order to achieve a strong corporate constitution, has implemented decisive measures for structural reforms 
of unprofitable businesses, including the PC, Visual Products, Home Appliances, Discrete Semiconductor and System LSI 
businesses.  The  Group  has  also  redefined  its  focus  business  areas  as  the  Energy  business  and  the  Storage  business, 
centered on Memories and SSD. In the Healthcare business, the Company sold Toshiba Medical Systems Corporation in 
order for the Company to maximize its value and realize its full potential, and also to improve Toshiba’s financial position. 
In  addition  to  this,  the  Company  also  signed  a  definitive  agreement  to  transfer  certain  shares  of  Toshiba  Lifestyle 
Products & Services Corporation. As a result, the operating results related to the Healthcare Systems & Services segment 
and  Home  Appliances  business  are  classified  as  discontinued  operations  in  the  Company’s  consolidated  statements  of 
operations.

The  Group’s  net  sales  decreased  by  446.0  billion  yen  to  5,668.7  billion  yen  (US$50,165.4  million).  While  the  Energy  & 
Infrastructure and Community Solutions segments recorded higher sales, the Lifestyle Products & Services segment saw 
significantly lower sales, due to structural reforms that redefined sales territories and other factors. The Electronic Devices 
& Components segment also recorded lower sales on lower sales prices.

The Group recorded a consolidated operating loss of 708.7 billion yen (-US$6,272.0 million), a decline of 897.1 billion yen, 
reflecting  significant  operating  income  deterioration  in  three  business  segments:  Energy  &  Infrastructure  recorded 
impairment  losses  in  the  Nuclear  Power  Systems  and  Transmission  &  Distribution  businesses;  Community  Solutions 
recorded  impairment  losses  in  the  Retail  Information  Systems  and  Office  Equipment  and  the  Lighting  businesses;  and 
Electronic Devices & Components had to absorb lower sales prices and the cost of structural reforms. Income (loss) from 
continuing operations, before income taxes and noncontrolling interests decreased by 789.7 billion yen to -633.1 billion 
yen (-US$5,603.1 million).

Net income (loss) attributable to shareholders of the Company decreased by 422.2 billion yen, after calculating a reversal 
of  deferred  tax  assets  and  recording  of  gain  from  sales  of  Toshiba  Medical  Systems  Corporation,  and  was  minus  460.0 
billion yen (-US$4,070.9 million).

(2) Cash Flows
In the fiscal year under review, net cash used in operating activities amounted to 1.2 billion yen, a decrease of 331.6 billion 
yen from net cash provided by operating activities of 330.4 billion yen in the previous year due to deterioration of net 
income (loss).
  Net  cash  provided  by  investing  activities  amounted  to  653.4  billion  yen,  an  increase  of  843.5  billion  yen  from  -190.1 
billion yen in the previous year due to a sale of Toshiba Medical Systems Corporation.
  As a result of the foregoing, free cash flow increased by 511.9 billion yen to 652.2 billion yen (US$5,771.8 million) from 
140.3 billion yen in the previous year.
  Net  cash  provided  by  financing  activities  amounted  to  135.7  billion  yen,  an  increase  of  261.5  billion  yen  from  -125.8 
billion yen in the previous year.
  The effect of exchange rate changes was to decrease cash by 11.8 billion yen. Cash and cash equivalents at the end of 
the fiscal year increased 776.1 billion yen, from 199.4 billion yen at the end of the previous fiscal year to 975.5 billion yen.

In  addition,  the  balance  of  cash  and  cash  equivalents  in  continuing  operations  amounted  to  969.7  billion  yen, 

deducting 5.8 billion yen of balance of cash and cash equivalents at the end of fiscal year in discontinued operations.

Note:
Toshiba’s  consolidated  financial  statements  are  based  on  U.S.  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  (“GAAP”). 
Operating income (loss) 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,  litigation  settlement  and  other  costs  are  not 
charged to operating income (loss).
  The  Healthcare  Systems  &  Services  segment  and  the  Home  Appliances  business  are  classified  as  discontinued 
operations in accordance with ASC 205-20 “Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations”. The results 
of  these  businesses  have  been  excluded  from  net  sales,  operating  income  (loss),  and  income  (loss)  from  continuing 
operations,  before  income  taxes  and  noncontrolling  interests.  Net  income  of  the  Group  is  calculated  by  reflecting  the 
results  of  these  businesses  to  income  (loss)  from  continuing  operations,  before  income  taxes  and  noncontrolling 
interests. In addition, these businesses are also classified as discontinued operations for the Group’s consolidated balance 
sheets and are indicated separately. Results of the past fiscal year have been revised to reflect these changes.

DIVIDEND
While  giving  full  consideration  to  such  factors  as  the  strategic  investments  necessary  to  secure  medium-  to  long-term 
growth, the Company 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.

It is highly regrettable that the Group posted a record operating loss and net loss for the fiscal year ended March 31, 

2016. In light of this situation, the Company decided not to pay dividends of surplus for the fiscal year under review.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

RISK FACTORS RELATING THE GROUP AND ITS BUSINESS

The  business  areas  of  energy,  infrastructure  and  storage,  on  which  the  Group  focuses,  require  highly  advanced 
technology for their operation. At the same time, the Group faces fierce global competition. Under such circumstance, 
major risk factors related to the Group recognized by the Company are described below. However, they should not be 
regarded as a complete and comprehensive statement of risk factors relating to the Group, and there are unforeseeable 
risk factors other than those 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, 2016 
and involve inherent uncertainties, and, therefore, the actual results may differ.

1. Risks related to management policy
(1) Strategic concentrated investment
The Group now focuses its capital expenditure and its investments and lending on the memory area.  However, this area 
may  not  grow  as  anticipated,  the  Group  may  not  maintain  or  strengthen  its  competitive  power  in  such  area,  or  the 
relevant investments may not fully generate the anticipated level of profit.

(2) Success of strategic business alliances and acquisitions
The Group has actively promoted 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  business  alliance  or  acquisition  may  not  have  the  expected  effects.  In  addition,  additional  capital 
expenditures and provision of guaranties may be needed 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, and as a result, 
the Group’s operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected.

(3) Business structure reformation
The  Group  as  a  whole  forced  through  large  scale  business  structure  reform  in  the  fiscal  year  ended  March  31,  2016 
(“FY2015”),  and  the  Group  has  incurred  a  large  amount  of  expenses  for  such  business  structure  reform.  Now  we  have 
some  good  prospect  that  we  can  complete  our  business  structure  reform.  However,  in  the  event  of  the  failure  of  the 
reform programs to produce the expected results, the Group may incur additional expenses for business structure reform 
due to the necessity of additional measures and in such case the Group’s operating results or financial condition may be 
adversely affected.

2. Risks related to financial condition, results of operations and cash flow
(1) Business environment of the Energy Systems & Solutions business
A significant portion of the net sales in the Energy Systems & Solutions business is attributable to sales related to capital 
expenditures by the private sector centering on operators of electricity utilities in Japan and overseas. Accordingly, this 
business could be affected by trends in such capital expenditures, and low levels of private capital expenditures due to 
the economic recession, and exchange rate fluctuations may have a negative impact on this business.
  Furthermore,  this  business  promotes  and  involves  the  supply  of  products  and  services  for  large-scale  projects  on  a 
worldwide basis. Post order changes in the specifications or other terms, delays, appreciation of material costs, changes 
to  and  suspension  or  stoppage  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, in the projects where the 
percentage-of-completion method is used for revenue recognition, the Group may retroactively reassess profits that had 
been recorded as accrued and record them as losses if, among other things, the original estimate is underestimated, the 
expected profits from such projects do not meet original expectations, or the projects are delayed or cancelled for some 
reason. In the past, the Group recorded losses on certain projects.
  Furthermore,  it  may  not  be  possible  to  pass  on  to  the  customer  or  others  any  additional  costs  incurred  due  to  the 
stoppage of the project, changes in regulations or other terms, delays in the work process, or unexpected events specific 
to  first  models  and  such  costs  may  not  be  collected,  or  a  dispute  may  arise  over  such  costs.  In  fact,  there  are  certain 
projects regarding which the Group is taking legal action. With respect to the investments in an operator that promotes a 
certain project which investment is made in order to secure the order from such operator, there may be impairments in 
investments, increases in the financial burden, delays in payouts depending upon the trends in projects.
  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.

(2) Business environment of the Infrastructure Systems & Solutions business
The  Infrastructure  Systems  &  Solutions  business  provides  diversified  solutions  for  the  areas  of  public  infrastructure, 

10 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2016

  
buildings and facilities, and industrial systems.
  Since  a  significant  portion  of  the  net  sales  in  this  business  is  attributable  to  sales  related  to  expenditures  on  public 
works  and  capital  expenditures  by  the  private  sector,  reductions  or  delays  in  spending  on  public  works,  low  levels  of 
private  capital  expenditures  due  to  the  economic  recession,  and  trends  in  building  and  housing  construction  on  a 
worldwide basis and other factors may have a negative impact on this business.
  This business is promoting its business development on a worldwide basis. Post order changes in the specifications or 
other  terms,  changes  to  and  stoppages  of  plans  for  various  reasons  including  policy  changes,  changes  in  regulations, 
appreciation of material costs and personnel expenses, natural and other disasters and other factors, may adversely and 
substantially affect the progress of this business. In addition, exchange rate fluctuations and other factors may also have a 
negative impact on this business.

In addition, in projects where the percentage-of-completion method is used for revenue recognition, the Group may 
retroactively  reassess  profits  that  had  been  recorded  as  accrued  and  record  them  as  losses  if,  among  other  things,  the 
original  estimate  is  underestimated,  the  expected  profits  from  such  projects  do  not  meet  original  expectations,  or  the 
projects are delayed or cancelled for some reason. In the past, the Group recorded losses on certain projects.

(3) Business environment of the Retail & Printing Solutions business
The Retail & Printing Solutions business provides retail solutions for the retail distribution industry and service industry, 
offices,  manufacturing  and  logistics  industries  and  particular  customers,  as  well  as  printing  solutions  for  offices,  and 
manufacturing and logistics industries. The results of this business may be adversely affected by any changes in political 
and economic conditions, taxation, environmental regulations and foreign exchange; and postponement or suspension 
of  capital  expenditure  by  reason  of  customers’  earnings  deterioration,  acceleration  of  industrial  realignment  due  to 
compounding and systemization, more intensified market competition with competitors, new entries into such industry, 
and similar events.

(4) Business environment of the Storage & Electronic Devices Solutions business
While the substantial portion of operating income/loss of the Group relies on the Storage & Electronic Devices Solutions 
business,  the  market  for  this  business  is  highly  cyclical,  depending  on  demand  and  supply,  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  such  as  changes  in  the  consumer  market  or  in  semiconductor 
heavy  users  and  corresponding  changes  in  demand  at  the  time  of  production  may  result  in  a  mismatch  between  the 
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.
  Fluctuations  in  the  results  of  this  business  may  materially  and  adversely  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 NAND flash memory 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.  However,  there  is  a 
possibility that the necessary amount of capital expenditure cannot be secured at appropriate timing depending on the 
financing environment of the Group and other factors.

(5) Business environment of the Industrial ICT Solutions business
A significant portion of the net sales in the Industrial ICT Solutions business is attributable to sales related to private IT 
investments by, among others, the financial sector and major manufacturers, as well as national and local government 
expenditures on public IT investments. Accordingly, this business could be affected by changes in such investments. Low 
levels  of  private  IT  investments  due  to  economic  recession,  and  reductions  and  delays  in  spending  on  public  IT 
investments may have a negative impact on this business. Since the solution services field of this business accepts most 
orders by executing service contracts and the term from order to delivery is relatively long, additional costs over original 
expectations may be incurred, if, among others, the original estimate is underestimated or a problem occurs in project 
management. Furthermore, in the case of delay of delivery or defects of delivered systems, the Group may be required to 
pay damages.

(6) Business environment of Others
The  market  for  personal  computers  and  televisions  is  intensely  competitive,  with  many  companies  manufacturing  and 
selling  products  similar  to  those  offered  by  the  Group  and  under  the  circumstances  where  earnings  are  structurally 
difficult to be recorded. Additionally, such businesses may be significantly affected by exchange rate fluctuations, wide 
availability of alternative products or lower priced products, economic fluctuations and consumer spending trends which 
may be affected by the scheduled increase in consumption tax, among other things. Moreover, any rapid fluctuation in 

TOSHIBA Annual Report 2016

11

 
Management’s Discussion and Analysis

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.  Large  scale  business  structure  reform  was  implemented  in  such 
businesses, but in the event where the reform programs fail to produce the expected results, or in case of similar events, 
additional measures may be needed.

(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 Group accounted for 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.

In addition, 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 a change in the balance in each 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  adversely  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 
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. As of March 31, 2016, 337.3 billion yen of goodwill was recorded in the 
Company’s  consolidated  balance  sheets  in  accordance  with  U.S.  generally  accepted  accounting  principles.  Out  of  the 
above, 268.1 billion yen was allocated to the Energy Systems & Solutions business, most of which was recorded due to the 
acquisition of Westinghouse group conducted in October 2006 and the acquisition of Landis+Gyr conducted in July 2011. 
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.  In  addition  to  the  above  annual  impairment  test,  if  any  event  indicating  a  decline  in 
corporate  value  owing  to  changes  in  the  business  environment  or  other  factors  arises,  and  the  total  of  the  carrying 
amounts exceeds its fair value, an impairment will be recognized. Therefore, additional impairments may be recorded, 
depending on the valuation of long- lived assets, the estimate of future cash flow from business related to goodwill, and 

12 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2016

 
changes in the discount rate for the weighted average capital cost.
  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 
negatively recognized.

(v) Shareholders’ equity
The  Group  recorded  a  very  large  operating  loss  and  net  loss  attributable  to  shareholders  of  the  Company  in  FY2015 
owing to, among others, the impact of impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, provisions for unprofitable projects, 
and  expenses  incurred  for  business  structure  reform,  and  as  a  result,  substantial  consolidated  net  assets  of  the  Group 
decreased. Therefore, when the Company executes an EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) agreement in 
overseas markets, the Company may not be able to satisfy the financial standards required by the ordering party, and as a 
result, the Company’s ability to accept orders may be adversely affected.

(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  financial  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.  Moreover,  because  of  the 
amendments  of  the  past  Annual  Securities  Reports  and  other  reports,  which  is  described  in  “10.  Past  inappropriate 
accountings,”  below  and  the  continuing  deterioration  in  the  operating  results,  the  long-term  credit  rating  assigned  by 
Moody’s  Japan  K.K.  was  downgraded  by  7  notches,  the  long-term  credit  rating  assigned  by  Standard  &  Poor’s  Ratings 
Japan  K.K.  was  downgraded  by  6  notches,  and  the  long-term  credit  rating  assigned  by  Rating  and  Investment 
Information, Inc. was downgraded by 3 notches for the period from the filing date of the Annual Securities Report for the 
176th term of the previous fiscal year to June 22, 2016, and the credit ratings may be downgraded further in the future.

In addition, 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  the 
relevant loan repayments may be accelerated upon demand by the relevant lending financial institutions. Furthermore, 
any breach by the Company of those financial covenants may trigger acceleration of the bonds or other borrowings of 
the Company.
  The  Company  will  make  all  possible  efforts  to  obtain  the  understanding  of  the  lending  financial  institutions  with 
respect to this, in order to avoid breaching financial covenants and the consequent acceleration of repayments. However, 
if  any  acceleration  of  the  Company’s  loan  repayments  occurs,  it  may  materially  and  adversely  affect  the  Company’s 
business operations.

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. In addition, a shortage in the electric power supply resulted from 
the suspension of the operation of nuclear power plants in Japan and a further rise in electricity costs due to the rise of 
fuel costs affected by exchange rate fluctuations may affect business activities, including manufacturing operations, of 
the Group, since a stable supply of electricity is essential to the Group’s business activities.
  Any failure by the Group to procure such materials, components and other goods from key suppliers or any shortage in 
the power supply or further rise in electricity costs may adversely 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.

(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, 

TOSHIBA Annual Report 2016

13

 
Management’s Discussion and Analysis

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  or  require  costs  more  than  in  the  past  in  order  to  obtain  such  human 
resources.

In order to reduce fixed costs, the Group carried out in FY2015 a personnel rationalization through rearrangement of 
personnel  and  early  retirement  incentive  program  including  re-employment  support  and  is  implementing  personnel 
measures, including the reallocation of human resources to focus on strong and promising businesses, bonus reduction, 
reduction of remuneration of the management, revision of various allowances and daily wages, reclaiming jobs that are 
outsourced  to  third  parties  or  conducted  by  limited-term  employees,  and  reducing  the  number  of  limited-term 
employees. 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.
  Cultivation  of  new  businesses  entails  substantial  uncertainty,  and  if  any  new  business  in  which  the  Group  invests  or 
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.

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 losses as a 
result.

In  addition,  if  the  Company’s  consolidated  net  assets,  consolidated  operating  income  or  credit  ratings  fall  below  the 
respective  levels  provided  for  in  the  contracts  with  such  customers,  the  relevant  guarantees  could  be  required  to  be 
replaced by letters of credit or bonds. In fact, certain contracts have been so replaced.

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. 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. In certain products and technological fields, the research and 
development  may  not  proceed  due  to  more  focus  on  research  and  development  in  other  products  and  technological 
fields, and as a result, the Group’s technological superiority may be impaired.

7. Risks related to laws and regulations
(1) Information security
The Group maintains and manages personal information obtained through business operations. Even though the Group 
makes  every  effort  to  manage  this  information  appropriately,  the  Group’s  brand  image,  reputation  and  business 
performance may be subject to negative influences, or the Group may be found to be liable for damages in the event of 
an unanticipated leak of such information which results in illegal retention or usage of such information by a third party.
  The Group also maintains and manages trade secrets regarding the Group’s technology, marketing and other business 
operations.  The  Group  is  implementing  measures  to  prevent  leakage  of  such  trade  secrets  outside  the  Group  through 
maintaining and tightening control of its information management system, training its employees, and other measures.
  However,  in  the  past,  situations  have  occurred  in  which  leakage  of  trade  secrets  was  suspected.  The  Group’s 
competitive power may be weakened and the Group’s business, operating results and financial condition may be subject 
to negative influences, in the event of an unanticipated leak of such information which results in illegal retention or usage 
of such information by a third party.

14 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2016

 
 
  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, and in such cases the Group’s business performance may be adversely affected.

(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  the  internal  control  systems  for  a  number  of 
purposes, including compliance with laws and regulations and strict reporting of business and financial matters.
  However,  in  FY2015,  it  was  recognized  that  inappropriate  accountings  such  as  the  priority  of  benefit  and  advance  of 
expenses were repeatedly conducted in the Company for the past several years, and there was deficiency in the internal 
control  related  to  reporting  of  business  and  financial  matters.  Based  on  the  recommendations  by  the  Independent 
Investigation  Committee  made  on  July  20,  2015,  the  Company  established  a  Management  Revitalization  Committee 
which is intended to appropriately operate and implement, among others, a new management structure, reform of the 
governance  structure  and  measures  to  prevent  reoccurrence  of  inappropriate  accountings.  Under  the  management 
revitalization  structure  established  on  September  30,  2015,  the  Company  carried  out  construction  and  operation  of 
appropriate internal control systems, and as a result, the Company has already established and largely implemented the 
measures of its improvement plan for rectifying the material weakness in company-level internal controls over financial 
report that the Company identified in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015. However, there are some measures regarding 
which the implementation status cannot be verified yet due to constraints in the implementation period, and not all the 
implementation status of the improvement measures have been sufficiently verified. Moreover, in connection with the 
closing  and  financial  reporting  process,  certain  items  for  restatement  were  discovered  in  the  course  of  the  audit  of 
financial  statements.  Taking  these  factors  into  account,  the  Company  has  judged  that  there  is  material  weakness  in 
internal controls requiring disclosure as of June 22, 2016.
  Moreover,  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 
interpretations of laws and regulations by the relevant authorities may also cause difficulty in achieving compliance with 
laws  and  regulations,  or  in  continuing  business  in  certain  regions  or  business  categories,  and  may  result  in  increased 
compliance costs. Furthermore, if the Group is in violation of these laws and regulations, the Group may be subject to 
administrative sanctions, such as fines, or criminal penalties, and legal actions claiming damages may be filed against the 
Group. In such cases, the Group’s reputation may be adversely affected, and the Group’s business, operating results and 
financial condition may be adversely affected. In the past, the Company was imposed fines as administrative sanctions.

(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.

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 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.
  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, in the past, the Group recalled certain products, and lawsuits and 
other claims relating to product quality were filed against the Group, and there is no assurance that all products are free 
of  defects  that  may  result  in  such  product  quality  claims  due  to  unforeseen  reasons  or  circumstances.  Furthermore,  if 
material product quality claims occur in large projects, and there are long delays in deliveries to customers or reworking 
is needed, the Group may be liable for a large amount in expenses or damages.

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 

TOSHIBA Annual Report 2016

15

 
 
Management’s Discussion and Analysis

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.
  The  Group  is  under  investigation  by  the  European  Commission,  and  other  competition  regulatory  authorities,  for 
alleged  violations  of  competition  laws  with  respect  to  products  that  include  semiconductors,  cathode  ray  tubes  (CRT), 
heavy electrical equipment, and optical disc devices. In addition, class action lawsuits and other claims with respect to 
alleged anti-competitive behavior regarding certain products brought against the Group are currently pending.

In November 2014, there was an arbitral award against the Group to find the breach of contracts with clients for the 
reason of defect of electricity meter in Europe. In July 2015, new arbitration seeking damages and others was filed. Now, 
the Group is asserting its opinion in the arbitration.

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 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  87%  at  present.  The  remainder  is  held  by  two  companies  in  Japan  and 
overseas  (the  “Minority  Shareholders”).  The  Company  is  considering  inviting  the  participation  of  new  investors  in 
Westinghouse, on the condition that the Company retains a majority-in-interest.
  The Minority Shareholders, based on a separate agreement with the Company, have been given an option to sell all or 
part of their ownership interests to the Company (“Put Options”).
  The  Group  also  has  an  option  to  purchase  from  the  Minority  Shareholders  all  or  part  of  their  respective  ownership 
interests  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  a  certain  amount  of  funds  in 
connection with the exercise of Put Options or purchase options.

(3) Agreements regarding natural gas
The Company executed (i) the service agreements for processing liquefied natural gas (the “Service Agreements”) with 
the companies providing services for liquefying natural gas in the United States, and (ii) the pipeline agreements with the 
pipeline companies in United States, for the purpose to sell natural gas to the users in other countries including Japan. 
Pursuant to these agreements, the Company will be provided the series of services. In these agreements, it is assumed 
that  the  Company  will  use  certain  amount  of  the  liquefying  ability  of  the  companies  providing  services  for  liquefying 
natural  gas  and  the  pipelines  of  the  pipeline  companies  for  the  period  of  twenty  (20)  years  from  2019.  The  Company 
generally expects to execute long-term transaction agreements with users with respect to the total amount of liquefied 
natural  gas  (LNG)  the  Company  will  obtain.  However,  depending  on  the  movement  of  crude-oil  prices  or  other  prices, 
there is a possibility that the Company cannot sell LNG to the users or in the market under conditions (including the price) 
the  Company  expects.  Even  in  that  case,  fixed  service  fee  payment  obligations  to  such  companies  continue,  and  as  a 
result, the Company may be obligated to bear losses.

10. Past inappropriate accountings
In February 2015, the Company received an order from the Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission, based on 
Article  26  of  the  Financial  Instruments  and  Exchange  Act,  requiring  submission  of  a  report.  The  Company  was  then 
subject  to  inspection  regarding  projects  that  used  percentage-of-completion  accounting.  Later,  after  establishing  the 
Independent  Investigation  Committee  and  conducting  the  investigation,  it  was  found  that  the  Company  made 
inappropriate  accountings  and,  therefore,  the  Company  filed  amendments  of  the  past  Annual  Securities  Reports  and 
other reports. The Tokyo Stock Exchange (“TSE”) and the Nagoya Stock Exchange (“NSE”) deemed that the Company had 

16 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2016

 
a serious problem in its internal control systems and that improvement of such internal control systems was essential, due 
to  the  fact  that  the  Company  made  misstatements  in  such  Annual  Securities  Reports  and  other  reports.  Therefore,  in 
September 2015, TSE and NSE imposed sanctions under which the shares of the Company were designated as “Securities 
on  Alert”.  After  a  year  from  the  designation  of  “Securities  on  Alert”,  the  Company  will  be  required  to  submit  to  stock 
exchanges  on  which  the  Company  is  listed  a  “Whitten  Confirmation  of  Internal  Management  Systems”,  and,  if,  among 
others, it is deemed that the Company has any problems in its internal management systems, the shares of the Company 
may be delisted, and such delisting may adversely affect the Group’s operating results and financial condition and may 
restrict opportunities for the Company’s shareholders to sell their shares.

In  a  class  action  brought  against  the  Company  as  defendant  in  the  State  of  California  in  the  U.S.  with  respect  to  the 
Group’s inappropriate accountings, an order granting a motion to dismiss was issued. However, such order is subject to 
an  appeal  by  the  plaintiffs,  and  is  not  definitive.  Several  lawsuits  have  been  initiated  in  Japan.  Going  forward,  the 
Company  may  also  be  sued  by  its  shareholders  and  others  and  depending  on  the  progress  of  such  procedures,  the 
Group’s business, operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected. In addition, the Company may be 
charged  administrative  actions  or  investigations  by  Japanese  or  overseas  authorities,  including  the  suspension  of 
business  related  to  construction.  If  the  Company  receives  such  sanctions,  the  Group  may  suffer  from  opportunity  loss 
such as nomination stop by governmental authorities, or degradation of social reputation accompanied thereby, and as a 
result, the Group’s business, operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected.
  The  Company  was  ordered  to  pay  administrative  monetary  penalty  of  7,373.5  million  yen  by  the  Financial  Services 
Agency  of  Japan  in  December  2015  with  respect  to  the  relevant  inappropriate  accountings  issues,  and  completed  the 
payment of such penalty.

11. 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 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 the past, law suits or similar actions or proceedings have been brought against the Group in respect of intellectual 
property rights, and the Group has filed law  suits  in order to  protect its intellectual  property  rights.  Such  lawsuits and 
actions may be brought against the Group or the Group may file lawsuits against infringing third parties in the future.
  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,  including  rules  and  regulations  concerning  investment,  repatriation  of  profits,  export  and 
import  controls,  foreign  exchange,  and  taxation,  and  exchange  rate  fluctuations,  in  Japan  or  overseas,  may  adversely 
impact market demand and the Group’s business operations.

(4) 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,  Hokuriku  and  Tohoku.  The  Group  is  currently  expanding  its  production  facilities  in  Asia.  As  a 
result, any occurrence of a wide-scale disaster, strike, terrorism or epidemic illness, such as a new type of flu, particularly 
in any of these areas could have a significant adverse effect on the Group’s results.
  Additionally, large-scale disasters, such as earthquakes, floods 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 adversely affect asset value and 
production  capabilities  significantly.  The  massive  flooding  was  caused  by  heavy  rains  that  fell  on  Chennai  and  its 
surrounding  region  in  South  India,  which  forced  the  flooded  factory  of  the  Group  to  suspend  operations  on  and  after 
November 2015. Going forward, such suspension may affect the delivery schedule of the products to be produced at that 
factory, and penalty charges may be claimed by the relevant customers. 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.

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 account balances 
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  income  (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  and  goodwill,  recoverability  of  receivables, 
realization  of  deferred  tax  assets,  uncertain  tax  positions,  pension  accounting  measurement,  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 statements of operations.

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 

TOSHIBA Annual Report 2016

25

 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Toshiba Corporation and Subsidiaries
March 31, 2016

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 net realizable value, 
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 in 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 is computed generally by the straight-line method.
  The  estimated  useful  lives  of  buildings  are  3  to  60  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 assigned to reporting units. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the 
implied  fair  value  of  goodwill  is  calculated.  If  the  carrying  amount  of  reporting  unit  goodwill  exceeds  the  implied  fair 
value of that goodwill, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The annual goodwill 
measurement dates are October 1 for the reporting unit related to the Nuclear Power Systems business and January 1 for 
other  reporting  units.  In  addition  to  the  annual  impairment  test,  an  impairment  test  is  performed  if  any  situation  that 
indicates a decline in enterprise market capitalization (for example, adverse change in the business climate, etc.) arises.

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.

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 statements of operations. 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  a  law 
regarding 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 

26 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2016

 
 
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. 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.

REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue  of  mass-produced  standard  products,  such  as  Electronic  Devices  &  Components  and  Lifestyle  Products  & 
Services, 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  Energy  &  Infrastructure,  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.
  The Company has recognized revenue from several claims and unapproved change orders where the amounts can be 
estimated reliably, realization is probable and there is a legal basis for recognition. Revenue is recorded only to the extent 
that  costs  associated  with  claims  or  unapproved  change  orders  have  been  incurred.  Recognized  revenue  from  several 
claims and unapproved change orders was approximately ¥8,785 million ($77,743 thousand) in long-term receivables and 
¥42,303 million ($374,363 thousand) in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet as of 
March 31, 2016, and ¥54,745 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet as of 
March 31, 2015, respectively.
  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.” Otherwise, 
revenue is deferred until the undelivered elements are fulfilled as a single unit of accounting.
  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.

SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS
The Group includes shipping and handling costs, which totaled ¥70,552 million ($624,354 thousand) and ¥71,519 million 
for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, 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 20 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

Toshiba Corporation and Subsidiaries
March 31, 2016

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 sheets.

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.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
The  Company  adopted  Accounting  Standards  Update  (“ASU”)  No.2014-08  “Presentation  of  Financial  Statements  and 
Property, Plant, and Equipment - Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an 
Entity” from the fiscal year beginning on April 1, 2015. ASU No.2014-08 amends ASC No.205-20 “Presentation of Financial 
Statements  -  Discontinued  Operations”  (“ASC  No.205-20”),  changes  the  requirements  for  reporting  discontinued 
operations  in  ASC  No.205-20  and  requires  a  company  to  provide  information  on  cash  flows  related  to  its  discontinued 
operations as well as additional disclosure about disposals of significant components of an entity that do not qualify for 
discontinued  operations  presentation.  In  response,  Note  “4.  Discontinued  Operations”  discloses  information  on 
discontinued operations pursuant to ASU 2014-08.

In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No.2015-16 “Business Combinations - 
Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments.” To simplify the accounting for adjustments made to 
provisional amounts during a measurement period recognized in a business combination, ASU No.2015-16 eliminates the 
requirement to retrospectively account for those adjustments. The amendments in this update require that an acquirer 
recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period 
in  which  the  amounts  of  the  adjustments  are  determined.  The  Company  early  adopted  ASU  No.2015-16  from  the  third 
quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, which began on October 1, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the 
impact of adoption of ASU No.2015-16 on the Company’s financial position and operating results.

RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No.2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU No.2014-09 supersedes the 
revenue  recognition  requirements,  and  affects  any  entity  that  either  enters  into  contracts  with  customers  to  transfer 
goods  or  services  or  enters  into  contracts  for  the  transfer  of  nonfinancial  assets  unless  those  contracts  are  within  the 
scope of other standards. To achieve the core principle, an entity should apply the five steps. ASU No.2014-09 requires an 
entity  to  disclose  the  qualitative  and  quantitative  information,  contracts  with  customers,  significant  judgments  and 
changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU No.2014-09 is effective for 
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and the Company will adopt ASU No.2014-09 effective April 1, 2018. The 
Company  is  currently  evaluating  the  impact  of  adoption  of  ASU  No.2014-09  on  the  Company’s  financial  position  and 
operating results.

In  January  2016,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  No.2016-01  “Recognition  and  Measurement  of  Financial  Assets  and  Financial 
Liabilities.”  ASU  No.  2016-01  has  made  revisions  concerning  recognition,  measurement,  presentation  and  disclosure  of 
financial  instruments.  The  amendments  in  this  update  require  equity  investments  to  be  measured  at  fair  value  with 
changes  in  fair  value  recognized  in  net  income  or  loss.  ASU  No.2016-01  is  effective  for  fiscal  years  beginning  after 
December  15,  2017,  and  the  Company  will  adopt  ASU  No.2016-01  effective  April  1,  2018.  The  Company  is  currently 
evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU No.2016-01 on the Company’s financial position and operating results.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No.2016-02 “Leases.” ASU No. 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize lease assets 
and lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, with some exceptions, in the lessee’s lease agreements that are 
classified  as  operating  leases.  ASU  No.2016-02  is  effective  for  fiscal  years  beginning  after  December  15,  2018,  and  the 
Company will adopt ASU No.2016-02 effective April 1, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption 
of ASU No.2016-02 on the Company’s financial position and operating results.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Group has evaluated subsequent events up to June 22, 2016 in accordance with ASC No.855 “Subsequent Events.”

RECLASSIFICATIONS
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.

4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Healthcare
In  the  December  21,  2015  press  release  titled  “Toshiba  to  Execute  ’Toshiba  Revitalization  Action  Plan’,”  the  Company 
announced  its  intention  to  invite  a  third  party  or  parties  to  acquire  an  ownership  interest  in  Toshiba  Medical  Systems 
Corporation  (hereinafter  “TMSC”),  in  order  to  ensure  the  future  provision  of  sufficient  support  and  resources  for  the 
Healthcare  business  to  maximize  its  value  and  realize  its  full  potential,  and  for  the  Company  to  improve  its  financial 
status. As a result, on March 17, 2016 the Company decided to sell its shares in TMSC (hereinafter the “Transaction”), and 
signed a share transfer agreement with Canon Inc. (hereinafter “Canon”). The Transaction was determined to have been 
completed on that day, and TMSC is no longer a subsidiary of the Company. However, TMSC will only become a subsidiary 
of Canon once Canon receives clearance from the authorities regulating competition law in key countries. Until then, MS 
Holding Co., Ltd (hereinafter “MS holding”), which is a third party independent of the Group, holds the voting rights at 
TMSC. Subsequent to the Transaction, the Group does not retain significant continuing involvement with TMSC or any of 
its subsidiaries. MS Holding and Canon are not related parties of the Company.
  As  a  result  of  the  Transaction,  the  Company  abolished  the  Healthcare  Company,  its  in-house  company  unit  effective 
March 31, 2016.
  The  above-mentioned  decisions  represent  a  strategic  shift  that  will  have  a  major  effect  on  the  Group’s  business 
operation and financial results. Consequently, pursuant to ASC 205-20, the financial position and operating results of the 
component  that  was  disposed  of  are  presented  separately  in  the  consolidated  balance  sheets  and  consolidated 
statements of operations as those of discontinued operations.

  The  financial  position  and  results  of  operations  of  the  relevant  component  that  was  disposed  of,  reclassified  as

Additionally, in the December 21, 2015 press release titled “Toshiba to Execute ’Toshiba Revitalization Action Plan’,” the 
Company announced that the Group was streamlining the operations of its Home Appliances business, included to date 
in  the  Lifestyle  Products  &  Services  business  segment,  while  also  pursuing  structural  reform  with  a  view  to  potentially 
conducting  a  business  reorganization  with  third  parties.  As  a  result,  the  Visual  Products  business  of  Toshiba  Lifestyle 
Products & Services Corporation (hereinafter “TLSC”) was transferred to the Company effective March 30, 2016, and the 
Company  signed  a  share  transfer  agreement  with  Midea  International  Corporation  Company  Limited  (hereinafter 
“Midea”),  a  wholly-owned  subsidiary  of  Midea  Group  Co.,  Ltd.,  on  a  transfer  to  Midea  of  Toshiba’s  80.1%  of  shares 
outstanding in TLSC, retaining the Home Appliances business.
  As a result of the above-mentioned share transfer, TLSC will be no longer a subsidiary of the Company effective June 
30, 2016 (scheduled), and will be transferred to Midea Group.

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, 2016 and 2015 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, 2016

Certain  non-marketable  equity  securities  accounted  for  under  the  cost  method  were  written  down  to  their  fair  value, 
resulting in other-than-temporary impairment for the year ended March 31, 2016. The impaired securities were classified 
within  Level  3  as  they  were  valued  based  on  the  specific  valuation  techniques  and  hypotheses  of  the  Group  with 
unobservable inputs.
  Certain  equity  method  investments  in  and  advances  to  affiliates  were  written  down  to  their  fair  value,  resulting  in 
other-than-temporary  impairment  for  the  years  ended  March  31,  2016  and  2015.  Some  of  them  were  classified  within 
Level 1 as they were valued based on quoted market prices in active markets. Others were classified within Level 3 as they 
were valued based on the specific valuation techniques and hypotheses of the Group or the transfer price of stocks with 
unobservable inputs.
  Previous  equity  interests  of  newly  controlled  subsidiaries  in  step  acquisitions  and  retained  investment  in  the  former 
subsidiary were classified within Level 3 as they were valued based on the specific valuation techniques and hypotheses 
of the Group with unobservable inputs for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.
  The impaired Goodwill was classified within Level 3 as it was valued based on the discounted cash flow method and 
comparable peer company analysis with unobservable inputs for the year ended March 31, 2016.
  The  impaired  long-lived  assets  held  for  use  were  classified  within  Level  3  as  they  were  valued  based  on  future 
assumptions such as discounted cash flows expected to be generated by the related assets with unobservable inputs for 
the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. The discount rate used for the weighted average cost was 6.8% to 10.9%.
  Long-lived  assets  held  for  sale  were  classified  within  Level  3  as  they  were  valued  based  on  transfer  price  with 
unobservable inputs for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.
  As a result, the recognized impairment losses for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 are mainly included in cost 
of sales, impairment loss on goodwill, equity in losses of affiliates, and other expense in the consolidated statements of 
operations.

The proceeds from sales of available-for-sale securities for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 were ¥145,180 million 
($1,284,779 thousand) and ¥66,449 million, respectively. The gross realized gains on those sales for the years ended March 
31, 2016 and 2015 were ¥129,429 million ($1,145,389 thousand) and ¥35,394 million, respectively. The gross realized losses 
on  those  sales  for  the  years  ended  March  31,  2016  and  2015  were  ¥607  million  ($5,372  thousand)  and  ¥520  million, 
respectively.
  At  March  31,  2016,  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  ¥27,013  million 
($239,053  thousand)  and  ¥29,641  million  at  March  31,  2016  and  2015,  respectively.  At  March  31,  2016  and  2015, 
investments with an aggregate cost of ¥26,182 million ($231,699 thousand) and ¥28,209 million were not evaluated for 
impairment  because  (a)the  Group  did  not  estimate  the  fair  value  of  those  investments  as  it  was  not  practicable  to 
estimate the fair value 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 value of those investments.

Included  in  other  expense  are  charges  of  ¥8,697  million  ($76,965  thousand)  and  ¥7,915  million  related  to  other-than-
temporary impairments in the marketable and non-marketable equity securities for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 
2015, respectively.

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 ¥817 million ($7,230 thousand) and ¥956 million on the transfers of receivables for the 
years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
  Subsequent  to  the  transfers,  the  Group  retains  collection  and  administrative  responsibilities  for  the  receivables 
transferred and retains a portion of the receivables for which proceeds are deferred. 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  at  the  point  of  the  transfer  of  the  receivables  is  measured  based  on  the 
economic  hypothesis  including  the  estimate  of  uncollectible  receivables,  average  collection  period  of  receivables  and 
discount rate, and it is classified within Level 3.
  The  table  below  summarizes  certain  cash  flows  received  from  and  paid  to  banking  institutions  or  special  purpose 
entities (“SPEs”) related to banking institutions on the above securitization transactions.

10. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Group tested goodwill for impairment in accordance with ASC No.350, applying a fair value based test and recorded 
impairment losses of ¥28,096 million ($248,637 thousand) on goodwill attributable to the Community Solutions segment 
in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This was due to a decrease in fair value of the reporting unit as a result of revising 
the mid-term business plan based on a tendency toward restrained investment by major customers and a growing sense 
of  uncertainty  regarding  future  demand  in  the  Retail  Store  Solutions  business  acquired.  The  fair  value  was  measured 
using the discounted cash flow method and comparable peer company analysis. The measurement date was September 
30, 2015.
  The Group recorded impairment losses of ¥16,560 million ($146,549 thousand) on goodwill attributable to the Energy & 
Infrastructure segment in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This was due to a decrease in fair value of the reporting 
unit as a result of revising the mid-term business plan considering a downturn of overseas operations in some emerging 
countries  and  other  countries  and  a  growing  sense  of  uncertainty  regarding  future  demand  in  the  Transmission  & 
Distribution Systems business. The fair value was measured using the discounted cash flow method. The measurement 
date was December 31, 2015.
  The Group recorded impairment losses of ¥247,600 million ($2,191,150 thousand) on goodwill attributable to the Energy 
& Infrastructure segment in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. This was due to a decrease in fair value of the reporting 
unit of the Nuclear Power Systems business as a result of reflecting deterioration of the Group’s financing environment in 
the  discount  rate.  Since  the  allocation  of  the  purchase  price  of  CB&I  Stone  &  Webster  Inc.  has  not  been  finalized,  as 
disclosed in Note 28, this impairment loss was accounted for based on the best estimate as of June 22, 2016. The fair value 
was measured using the discounted cash flow method. The measurement date was February 29, 2016.

  The Group tested goodwill for impairment and has concluded that there was no impairment for the year ended March 
31, 2015.

  The Group recorded impairment losses on intangible assets excluding goodwill in the fiscal years ended March 31, 2016 
and 2015. Impairment losses on intangible assets excluding goodwill have been disclosed in Note 16.

12. ACCRUED PENSION AND SEVERANCE COSTS

All employees who retire or are terminated from the Company and certain subsidiaries 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 a 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.

In addition, for the purpose of supporting post-retirement life plans of employees and responding to diverse needs for 
retirement benefits, a defined contribution pension plan was introduced by the Company and some of its subsidiaries in 
Japan on October 1, 2015. Under this plan, a portion of the contribution to lump-sum retirement benefits was replaced by 
defined  contribution  pension  plan  and  individual  employees  take  control  of  their  own  fund  management  and  direct 
investments.

The following figures include effects of the discontinued operations relating to the Healthcare business and the Home 
Appliances business.

The changes in the benefit obligation and plan assets for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 and the funded status 
at March 31, 2016 and 2015 are as follows:

March 31

Weighted-average  assumptions  used  to  determine  benefit  obligations  as  of  March  31,  2016  and  2015  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 years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 are as 
follows:

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 33.1 percent and 35.6 percent for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
  Amendments  to  the  Japanese  tax  regulations  were  enacted  into  law  on  March  29,  2016.  As  a  result  of  these 
amendments, the effective statutory tax rate used to calculate deferred tax assets and liabilities was changed from 32.3 
percent to 30.9 percent for temporary difference expected to be eliminated during the fiscal years beginning on April 1, 
2016 and 2017, and 30.6 percent for temporary difference expected to be eliminated in and after the fiscal year beginning 
on  April  1,  2018.  The  effect  of  re-evaluation  of  deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  for  this  change  in  the  tax  rate  was 
reflected in income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended March 31, 2016.

The components of income tax expense allocated to continuing operations and discontinued operations for years ended 
March 31, 2016 and 2015 are as follows:

Deferred tax liabilities included in other current liabilities and other liabilities at March 31, 2016 and 2015 were ¥108,623 
million ($961,265 thousand) and ¥106,607 million, respectively.
  The  net  changes  in  the  total  valuation  allowance  for  the  years  ended  March  31,  2016  and  2015  were  an  increase  of 
¥274,689 million ($2,430,876 thousand) and an increase of ¥3,163 million, respectively.
  The amount 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, 2016 was 
¥344,691  million  ($3,050,363  thousand).  The  amount  of  adjustments  for  the  year  ended  March  31,  2015  was  not 
significant.

The  Group’s  tax  loss  carryforwards  for  the  corporate  and  local  taxes  at  March  31,  2016  amounted  to  ¥248,609  million 
($2,200,080 thousand) and ¥338,287 million ($2,993,690 thousand), respectively, the majority of which will expire during 
the period from the year ending March 2017 through 2025. The Group utilized tax loss carryforwards of ¥198,857 million 
($1,759,796 thousand) and ¥90,296 million to reduce current corporate taxes and ¥201,271 million ($1,781,159 thousand) 
and ¥28,169 million to reduce current local taxes during the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
  The amount of benefits due to use of tax loss carryforwards included in income tax expense for the year ended March 
31, 2016 was ¥15,907 million ($140,770 thousand). The amount of benefits due to use of tax loss carryforwards included in 
income tax expense for the year ended March 31, 2015 was not significant.
  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.

The total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits that would reduce the effective tax rate, if recognized, are ¥1,574 million 
($13,929 thousand) and ¥1,465 million at March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
  The  Group  recognizes  interest  and  penalties  accrued  related  to  unrecognized  tax  benefits  in  income  taxes  in  the 
consolidated  statements  of  operations.  Both  interest  and  penalties  accrued  in  the  consolidated  balance  sheets  as  of 
March  31,  2016  and  2015,  and  interest  and  penalties  included  in  income  taxes  in  the  consolidated  statements  of 
operations for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 are not significant.
  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,  2016,  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, 2014 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, 2009 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, 2016 and 2015 are 4,237,602,026.

RETAINED EARNINGS (ACCUMULATED DEFICIT)
Retained earnings (accumulated deficit) at March 31, 2016 and 2015 included a legal reserve of ¥36,459 million ($322,646 
thousand)  and  ¥44,165  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 shareholders.
  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  (accumulated  deficit)  at  March  31,  2016  included  the  Group’s  share  in  undistributed  earnings  of 
equity method investees in the amount of ¥57,479 million ($508,664 thousand).

The Company introduced a plan for countermeasures to any large-scale acquisitions of the Company’s shares (the “Plan”), 
and renewed the Plan in June 2009 and June 2012. However, the Company decided not to renew the Plan after careful 
consideration  on  changes  in  business  environment,  compliance  with  the  Financial  Instruments  and  Exchange  Act,  and

20. 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 2016 to 2021.
  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 statements of operations.

Cash Flow Hedge Strategy
The forward exchange contracts and currency options utilized by the Group effectively reduce fluctuation in cash flow 
from  commitments  on  future  trade  transactions  denominated  in  foreign  currencies  for  the  next  5  years  and  1  year, 
respectively.
  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 5 years.
  The Group expects to reclassify ¥1,019 million ($9,018 thousand) of net income 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, 2016

The above table excludes the financial instruments  for  which  fair value  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

23. 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 2016 to 2023 and from 2015 to 2023 as 
of March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively 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 ¥116,627 million ($1,032,097 thousand) and ¥74,931 million as 
of March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

GUARANTEES OF EMPLOYEES’ HOUSING LOANS
The Group guarantees housing loans of its employees. Expiration dates vary from 2016 to 2032 and from 2015 to 2032 as 
of March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. 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  ¥1,664  million 
($14,726 thousand) and ¥2,670 million as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. 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 October 2025. The maximum potential payments 
by the Group for such residual value guarantees were ¥5,094 million ($45,080 thousand) and ¥6,979 million as of March 
31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

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 ¥6,171 million ($54,611 thousand) 
and ¥7,158 million as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The carrying amounts of the liabilities for the Group’s obligations under the guarantees described above as of March 31,  
2016 and 2015 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.
  The following is a reconciliation table of the product warranty accrual for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015:

24. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

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.  In  April  2007,  the 
Company filed an appeal to the General Court of the European Union (the “GC”) seeking annulment of the Commission’s 
decision.  In  July  2011,  the  GC  handed  down  a  judgment  and  annulled  the  entire  fine  imposed  on  the  Company,  but 
upheld  the  Commission’s  determination  about  alleged  anti-competitive  behavior.  The  Company  appealed  the  GC’s 
judgment  to  the  European  Court  of  Justice  (the  “ECJ”)  in  September  2011.  In  June  2012,  the  Commission  adopted  a 
decision re-imposing fines on the Company, by recalculating the above-mentioned fines. In this decision, the Company 
was  individually  fined  €56.8  million  and  was  also  fined  €4.65  million  jointly  and  severally  with  Mitsubishi  Electric 
Corporation.  The  Company  filed  an  appeal  with  the  GC  seeking  annulment  of  this  decision  in  September  2012  on  the 
ground  that  the  procedure  and  substance  of  the  new  decision  are  unreasonable.  In  January  2016,  the  GC  upheld  the 
Commission’s decision to re-impose fines on the Company. After a careful review of the judgment, the Company decided 
to  file  an  appeal  to  the  ECJ  in  March  2016  and  the  dispute  is  still  ongoing.  The  Company  accrued  the  reasonably 
estimated amount expected to be paid for the fines. In December 2013, the ECJ delivered its final ruling to support the 
Commission’s  decision  in  respect  of  the  alleged  infringement  of  EU  competition  laws  in  the  gas  insulated  switchgear 
market.

In February 2011, the Ministry of Defense of Japan (the “MOD”) cancelled a contract for development and manufacture 
of “reconnaissance system for F-15” between the MOD and the Company. In July 2011, the Company filed a lawsuit against 
the MOD to Tokyo District Court seeking payment of approximately ¥9,319 million ($82,469 thousand) including payment 
for parts which have been already completed. In October 2012, the MOD filed a counterclaim seeking payment for the 
penalty  of  the  cancellation  of  the  contract.  In  March  2014,  the  Company  expanded  seeking  payment  of  approximately 
¥3,017  million  ($26,699  thousand).  In  March  2016,  the  Tokyo  District  Court  handed  down  a  judgment  of  first  instance, 
dismissing the Company’s claim. However, as the ruling was deemed unacceptable, the Company filed an appeal to the 
Tokyo High Court in the same month. The Company properly executed its duties pursuant to conditions of the contract. 
Therefore, the Company thinks that the MOD’s cancellation of the contract and the claim for penalty is unreasonable and 
will assert its position in the Court.

In December 2012, the Commission adopted a decision imposing a fine of approximately €28 million on the Company, 
plus a fine of €87 million jointly and severally with Panasonic Corporation and MT Picture Display Co., Ltd. (“MTPD”) for 
infringement  of  EU  Competition  Law  in  the  color  picture  tube  (used  for  Televisions)  market.  Finding  this  decision 
unreasonable, the Company filed in February 2013 an appeal to the GC, which in September 2015 handed down a verdict, 
withdrawing the entirety of the fine of approximately €28 million previously imposed on the Company and reducing the 
joint fine imposed on Panasonic Corporation and MTPD and the Company to €83 million. Moreover, the Company filed an 
appeal to the ECJ in November 2015, demanding a withdrawal of the joint fine portion related to MTPD. For the fiscal year 
ended March 31, 2016, the Company accrued the reasonably estimated amount expected to be paid for the fines. Also in 
the U.S., some purchasers of cathode ray tube-related products have filed a lawsuit asking for payment of damages based 
on U.S. Antitrust Law. Believing that it has never breached the Law in the cathode ray tube business, the Group will take 
any legal actions to demonstrate its assertion.

In November 2013, Japan Post Co., Ltd. (“JP”) filed a lawsuit against the Company and NEC Corporation to Tokyo High 
Court for violating the antitrust law concerning a bid for postal code automatic reading and sorting equipment, seeking 
payment of approximately ¥3,756 million ($33,239 thousand) and delayed damages. This claim is based on the cease and 
desist order issued by the Japan Fair Trade Commission in December 2010. The Company continued to assert its position 
in the Court because it considered there was no causal association between its action and damage claimed by JP and that 
JP’s claim was unreasonable in the Tokyo High Court. In February 2016, a settlement proposal was issued by the Tokyo 
High Court, which was followed by the court settlement being reached between both parties in April 2016, marking the 
closing of this litigation.

In November 2014, there was an arbitral award against the Group to find the breach of contracts with clients for the 
reason of defect of electricity meter in Europe. In July 2015, new arbitration demanding damage compensation was filed. 
The Group intends to assert its opinion in the arbitration.

In February 2015, the Company received an order from the Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission, based on 
Article  26  of  the  Financial  Instruments  and  Exchange  Act,  requiring  submission  of  a  report.  The  Company  was  then 
subject  to  inspection  regarding  projects  that  used  percentage-of-completion  accounting.  Later,  after  establishing  the 
Independent  Investigation  Committee  and  conducting  the  investigation,  it  was  found  that  the  Company  continuously 
made inappropriate accountings and, therefore, the Company filed amendments of the past Annual Securities Reports 
and other reports. Holders of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) filed a class action lawsuit against the Company in the 
State of California, in the U.S. in relation to the inappropriate financial reporting by the Company. While it filed a petition 
with  the  court  for  rejection  of  the  lawsuit  on  the  grounds  that  securities  laws  of  the  U.S.  do  not  apply  to  the  above-
mentioned securities, among other reasons, the decision to reject the lawsuit was made as of May 20, 2016 (U.S. time). 

68 TOSHIBA Annual Report 2016

 
 
 
 
 
This decision accepted the Company’s claim. Since the plaintiffs can appeal, the decision has not been finalized. Damage 
compensation lawsuits were filed with several courts against the Company in Japan as well with the plaintiffs claiming to 
have suffered damage due to inappropriate financial reporting by the Company. The Company accrued the reasonably 
estimated amount expected to be paid for the damage compensation. There is a likelihood that shareholders and other 
entities will file a lawsuit against the Company in the future.
  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.  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.
  However 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.

25. BUSINESS STRUCTURAL REFORM

Year ended March 31, 2016
Based  on  “Toshiba  Revitalization  Action  Plan,”  which  was  issued  on  December  21,  2015,  the  Group  has  implemented 
various  related  measures.  Under  “Toshiba  Revitalization  Action  Plan,”  which  focuses  on  “Decisive  Action  on  Business 
Structural Reform,” “Strengthen Internal Controls and Reform the Corporate Culture,” “Review the Business Portfolio and 
Operational  Structure,”  and  “Reforming  the  Financial  Base,”  the  Company  hopes  to  regain  the  trust  of  all  stakeholders, 
and achieve a strong corporate constitution. The main components of the business structural reforms are as follows:

Electronic Devices & Components
The Company has decided to terminate the white LED business in the Discrete business and to exit from the CMOS image 
sensor  business  in  the  System  LSI  business.  At  the  same  time,  promoting  personnel  rationalization,  the  Company  has 
implemented  an  early  retirement  incentive  program  in  which  provided  the  special  retirement  benefits  in  addition  to 
regular retirement benefits (hereinafter referred to as the “early retirement incentive program”).

Lifestyle Products & Services
As part of the structural reform of the PC business, the Group concentrates on the BtoB business, and the BtoC business 
limits its scope and mainly focuses on the domestic market.
  The  Visual  Products  business,  primarily  televisions,  terminates  internal  development,  manufacture  and  sales  in 
operations outside Japan and shifts to licensing business of Toshiba brand.
  Among these businesses, the early retirement incentive program has also been implemented.

Others
For  the  headquarters,  the  Company  has  implemented  personnel  repositioning  and  the  early  retirement  incentive 
program to slim down the corporate staff functions and shift to an organizational structure that supports the mission of 
concentrating on strategic planning for the future.

Changes  in  the  liability  balance  related  to  exit  and  disposal  activities  for  the  fiscal  year  ended  March  31,  2016  are  as 
follows.
  These expenses are usually short term in nature, being completed within one year from the initiation of activities.
  The  exit  and  disposal  activities  were  mostly  completed  as  of  March  31,  2016,  and  there  is  no  significant  amount  of 
expenses expected to be incurred in the following years.

For the Visual Products business centered on televisions, in order to achieve a stable operation which secures consistent 
profit without depending on sales volume in response to a still harsh business environment, the Company implemented 
measures including the closing and consolidation of sales bases in countries and regions where the profitability was low 
while  concentrating  sales  resources  on  the  Japanese  market  in  which  demand  for  large  size  Ultra  HD  (4K)  LCD  TVs  is 
expected  to  grow.  As  a  result,  restructuring  charges  included  in  other  expense  were  ¥17,905  million  in  the  fiscal  year 
ended March 31, 2015.
  For the PC business, in order to secure consistent profit, the Group further accelerated the structural shift to the BtoB 
market and promoted a large contraction of the BtoC market, which is highly variable depending on effects of the market 
environment, etc., including the exit from certain regions. Consequently, restructuring charges included in other expense 
were ¥16,114 million in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.

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  March  2027.  The  Group  accrued    ¥15,732  million 
($139,221  thousand)  and  ¥6,914  million  at  March  31,  2016  and  2015,  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  ¥7,535  million  ($66,681  thousand)  and  ¥10,384  million  as  of 
March 31, 2016 and 2015, 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, 2016 and 2015 are as

28. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

NuGeneration Limited
The Company entered into an agreement with a Spanish company Iberdrola, S.A. to purchase all of its 50% ownership of 
NuGeneration  Limited  (“NuGen”)  on  December  21,  2013.  The  Company  also  entered  into  an  agreement  with  a  French 
company ENGIE S.A. (“ENGIE”) to purchase an additional 10% ownership of NuGen on June 19, 2014, and consequently 
acquired a controlling financial interest of NuGen for £102 million in cash on June 26, 2014 (all UK Standard Time). As a 
result, Advance Energy UK Limited, a 100% consolidated subsidiary of the Company, holds 60% of the outstanding shares 
of NuGen, and NNB Development Company, a 100% consolidated subsidiary of ENGIE, holds the remaining 40% of the 
outstanding shares.
  NuGen has commenced a nuclear power plant construction project at the Moorside site in West Cumbria, North West 
England, which is the largest, single proposed nuclear power plant construction project in Europe. As the majority owner 
of  NuGen,  the  Company,  in  collaboration  with  its  group  company,  Westinghouse  Electric  Company,  intends  to  move 
forward with the construction and the operation of three AP1000 nuclear reactors.
  Combining the global expertise and commitment of the Company, ENGIE’s pioneering expertise as a European nuclear 
operator, and world-leading technology of Westinghouse Electric Company will make a significant contribution to energy 
security and long-term employment in the UK.
  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 and the fair value of noncontrolling interests to the 
identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:

Identifiable intangible assets acquired are Generation Licence. The fair value of the noncontrolling interests is measured 
using the valuation of assets and liabilities held by investees and corporate valuation performed by the third parties.
  The excess of the purchase price and the fair value of the noncontrolling interests over the fair value of the identifiable 
assets acquired and liabilities assumed, amounted to ¥25,557 million, which was recorded as goodwill and allocated to 
Energy & Infrastructure. As disclosed in Note 10, impairment losses were recorded on a part of goodwill in the fiscal year 
ended March 31, 2016.
  Operating results of NuGen are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations from the acquisition 
date. These amounts are not significant.

Toshiba Corporation and Subsidiaries
March 31, 2016

CB&I Stone & Webster Inc.
Westinghouse  Electric  Company  LLC  (“WEC”),  the  Company’s  consolidated  subsidiary,  entered  into  an  agreement  to 
acquire  all  the  shares  for  a  major  engineering  company  in  the  U.S.,  Chicago  Bridge  &  Iron  Company  (“CB&I”),  and  the 
subsidiary  of  CB&I,  CB&I  Stone  &  Webster  Inc.  (“S&W”),  which  is  engaged  in  construction  and  integrated  services  of 
nuclear power plants, on October 27, 2015 (U.S. Time), and completed the procedures for the acquisition of the shares and 
acquired  S&W  on  December  31,  2015  (U.S.  Time).  In  line  with  this,  all  outstanding  claims  such  as  compensation  claims 
between WEC and S&W were mutually discharged under the agreement concerned prior to the completion of the above-
mentioned share acquisition procedure.
  WEC has been engaged in plant design, engineering, procurement, construction and provision of support of AP1000® 
nuclear power plants for the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant and the V.C. Summer Nuclear Generating Station, which are 
under  construction  in  the  U.S.  with  S&W  as  the  consortium  partner.  Following  the  acquisition,  S&W  will  continue  to 
proceed  with  the  construction  work  as  a  subsidiary  of  WEC.  In  addition,  WEC  agreed  with  Southern  Co.,  which  is  the 
owner of the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant project mentioned above, and SCANA Corporation, which is the owner of 
the  V.C.  Summer  Nuclear  Generating  Station  project  respectively  to  revise  the  current  EPC  contracts.  Under  these 
agreements, all the claims existing between the owner and the consortium on each project at the time of the acquisition 
of  the  shares  including  litigations  were  also  mutually  discharged.  Since  S&W  became  WEC’s  subsidiary,  the  service 
business that the subsidiary has worked on other than construction of nuclear power plants (such as services related to 
decommissioning, project management, environment services, and service business for government that the subsidiary 
will newly work on) was added to WEC’s business line. This will lead to further growth of WEC.
  The  Company  is  in  the  process  of  allocating  the  purchase  price  to  the  assets  acquired  and  liabilities  assumed  in 
accordance  with  ASC  No.805,  but  the  process  has  not  been  finalized  as  of  June  22,  2016.  Under  the  above  share 
acquisition agreement, payments from WEC to CB&I are to be made at the time of completion of the construction and 
achievement of certain milestones, and so on for the continuous supply of equipment and others from CB&I to WEC for 
the  above  projects  of  the  plants  that  are  under  construction  in  the  U.S.  Of  the  payments,  approximately  $145  million, 
which is the present value of deferred payment of consideration, is treated as the purchase price. As a result of deducting 
approximately $30 million, provisional fair value related to the discharge of pre-existing claims between WEC and S&W, 
from $145 million mentioned above, the purchase price provisionally estimated as of June 22, 2016 is approximately $115 
million. Since the purchase price under the agreement is being examined in detail, the amount may change in the future. 
The following table summarizes the purchase price and the provisional value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities 
assumed as of the acquisition date:

Operating results of S&W are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations from the third quarter of 
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016. S&W’s net sales and net income included in the Company’s consolidated statements 
of  operations  for  the  year  ended  March  31,  2016  were  ¥72,228  million  ($639,186  thousand)  and  ¥1,036  million  ($9,168 
thousand), respectively.
  The unaudited pro-forma results of operations as though the above business combination had taken place on April 1, 
2014 have not been presented, because it is difficult to obtain accurate financial figures excluding intercompany net sales 
of S&W to the Group before the acquisition.

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 Energy & 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,  2016  and  2015,  the  total  assets  of  VIEs  on  the  consolidated  balance  sheets  were  ¥34,718  million 
($307,239 thousand) and ¥47,724 million, and the total liabilities of VIEs on the consolidated balance sheets were ¥20,239 
million ($179,106 thousand) and ¥28,652 million, respectively. The assets consisted primarily of machinery and equipment. 
The liabilities consisted primarily of long-term debt and advance payments received. 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 Energy & 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 share power equally. Unconsolidated VIEs involved in Energy & Infrastructure are established for the purpose of 
developing  nuclear  power  plants,  supplying  stable  electric  power  systems,  and  providing  electric  services  and 
equipment to electric power operators. For the year ended March 31, 2015, the Group recorded a loss of ¥38,543 million 
due to a reassessment of the value of assets of the VIE involved in Energy & Infrastructure in the United States. 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.
  The Group entered into an agreement for natural gas liquefaction, Liquefaction Tolling Agreement (“LTA”) with a U.S. 
company,  FLNG  Liquefaction  3,  LLC  (“FLIQ3”),  which  is  an  entity  related  to  Energy  &  Infrastructure.  This  agreement  has 
come into effect from April, 2015. Under the LTA, the Group has secured a commitment for the liquefaction of 2.2 million 
tons  of  natural  gas  produced  in  the  U.S.  per  annum  over  20  years  from  2019.  Procurement  of  natural  gas  and 
transportation of liquefied natural gas are not included in this agreement. Because the Group is obliged to purchase the 
service  for  liquefying  natural  gas  of  2.2  million  tons  per  annum  due  to  the  LTA  coming  into  effect  and  holds  variable 
interests in FLIQ3, FLIQ3 was evaluated as a variable interest entity. The Group is not the primary beneficiary of this VIE 
because  the  Group  does  not  have  the  power  to  direct  the  activities  that  most  significantly  affect  the  VIE’s  economic 
performance.  In  addition,  the  Group  has  not  incorporated  operating  results  of  FLIQ3  into  the  consolidated  financial 
statements.

  As of March 31, 2016 and 2015, 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:
  With  regard  to  FLIQ3,  since  the  Group  is  a  party  to  the  LTA  and  it  is  difficult  to  obtain  information  on  the  variable 
interest entity, only maximum exposures to losses are included in the following summary table. The maximum exposures 
to losses are included in commitments and the unconditional purchase obligation disclosed in Note 22.

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, 
guarantees and commitments, 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.  With  regard  to  FLIQ3,  the  portion 
corresponding to the purchase obligation for 20 years is deemed as the maximum exposure to losses at the moment, and 
represents  the  amount  of  losses  that  may  arise  if  the  Company  cannot  receive  any  natural  gas  liquefied  in  this  project 
over 20 years due to own convenience.

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 sheets as at March 31, 2016 and 2015, and 
the consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for the years then ended 
and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, 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 
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, 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  audits.  We 
conducted our audits 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,  2016  and 
2015,  and  their  consolidated  financial  performance  and  cash  flows  for  the  years  then  ended  in  conformity  with 
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter
We draw attention to Note 32 to the consolidated financial statements, which describes that the Company resolved 
at its Board of Directors’ meeting held on May 23, 2016, to submit a proposal for reduction in common stock to the 
Ordinary  General  Meeting  of  Shareholders  for  the  177th  fiscal  period  held  on  June  22,  2016,  which  was 
subsequently approved at the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders, and to transfer other capital surplus to 
accumulated deficit. 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.

The production and printing of this report reflect the following considerations :

Paper

Printing

Use of FSC-certified Paper
Paper certified by Forest 
Stewardship Council (FSC) 
is used, which is made 
from wood from 
FSC-certified forests.

Use of Forest Thinning Support Paper

Toshiba Group supports forest thinning project 
in  Misawa  City,  Aomori  prefecture,  aiming  to 
preserve the nature for the next generation.

A-(2)-060001

Tree use cycle mark
We  believe  that  it  is  important  to  make 
proactive  use  of  domestic  wood  products 
and  to  grow  forests,  and  we  support  the 
forestry  Agency’s  efforts  to  promote  “tree 
trainer  activies”.  Domestic  timber  provided 
the raw material for the paper on which this 
report is printed, and its use contribused to 
increased absorption of CO2 by native forests.

Waterless Printing
Waterless  printing,  a  printing  process 
that  eliminates  the  use  of  water,  is 
adopted,  taking  advantage  of  the 
characteristics of printing plates made 
of ink-shedding material.

Non-VOC Ink
100%  vegetable  ink  containing  no 
volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is 
used.
