Commitment to Quality
Thoroughly Reaffirming Toyota’s Founding Principles
Worldwide competition in the automotive industry is growing more intense, as demonstrated by
increasing demand for innovative and competitively priced products that meet unique customer
needs. In addition, environmental concerns are becoming a higher priority for the international
community.
Toyota’s 70-year history has been very valuable in helping the Company address the major
challenges it faces today. We have experienced recessions, automobile trade liberalization,
environmental concerns, oil shocks and other major changes in the operating environment.
In each case, we remained faithful to our founding principles of contributing to society. With
humility, we learned and evolved. The current difficulties have given us cause to reaffirm these
principles. We are confident that by providing safe, high-quality vehicles at affordable prices,
the starting point for growth, we can overcome the issues we now face by adhering steadfastly
to customer-first, Genchi Genbutsu (on-site, hands-on experience) principles and striving for
continuous improvement.
Building the Automobile of the Future
The automobile industry is being driven by advances in environmental technology. Toyota
will work to improve its technology, while broadening its strategy of sustainable mobility to
include new technologies and products, partnerships, the urban environment and energy. By
strengthening the bonds between the customers, dealers and suppliers who represent our

scale earnings recovery. I apologize sincerely for any concern this
may have caused our shareholders, investors, customers, suppliers,
communities and other stakeholders. Under these circumstances,
we made many difficult decisions and introduced new operating
structures across the Company. In June 2009, we put in place a new
management team to facilitate structural reforms and a recovery
in performance. Returning to the spirit of manufacturing cars that
has been essential to Toyota since its founding, we are preparing to
take the next step forward.

Commitment to Quality
well as our overseas business operations for their efforts in working together to return the Company
to its normal state as soon as possible. Above all, I am sincerely grateful to the more than 7 million
customers around the world who purchased new Toyota vehicles during the past year.
Thanks to everyone’s support, consolidated operating income for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2010, was ¥147.5 billion. I think that quickly moving into the black at a time that will
determine car-making for the next 100 years is hugely significant to the formulation of our next
growth strategy. I have defined fiscal 2011 as the year when Toyota makes a fresh start, and I
intend to steer the Company toward a new growth strategy.
One pillar of this new growth strategy is the next-generation eco-car. In May 2010, we
announced a business partnership with Tesla Motors involving the development of an electric
vehicle. In the spring of 2010, during a visit to the United States, I had an opportunity to test drive
one of Tesla Motors’ electric vehicles, an experience that I can only describe as feeling the wind
of the future. Not only was I impressed by Tesla’s technological capabilities, but I also sensed the
energy that will enable them to produce the vehicle efficiently to meet market demands.
In order to capitalize on technological transitions that occur once every hundred years, I think
that the can-do spirit, quick decision-making and flexibility of venture businesses are as necessary
as the methods of big corporations like Toyota. Toyota was also born as a venture business and that
spirit has contributed to its growth over the years. By working with Tesla, I strongly believe we can
reawaken the creative spirit in our own employees and accept the challenges of facing a new future.
Since its foundation, Toyota’s unchanging mission has been to contribute to society by making
safe and reliable vehicles. This will continue to be our priority. In addition, Toyota has been a
dynamic company. As the particular needs of our customers evolve, I consider the response to
ever-changing times as growth, and I hope that Toyota and I myself will continue to grow.

(2) Strengthening Information Disclosure: Regaining Trust through Comprehensive Communication
In addition to strengthening our processes for the gathering of field performance data, we are
also enhancing the effectiveness of other quality improvement activities. Toyota will release
the results of third-party expert reviews and assessments of the improvement measures
adopted by the Special Committee for Global Quality. Also, Toyota is working closely with its
dealers to promote safer driving by providing customers with comprehensive information
regarding safety technology, safe driving methods, and other awareness tools that contribute
to the safe use of vehicles.
(3) Human Resource Development
In July 2010, we established five Customer First Training Centers to maintain quality and
further develop our human resources. These Customer First Training Centers are in Japan,
North America, Europe, Southeast Asia and China. The HR training programs specialize in
the cultivation of quality control experts and location-specific concerns and employ people
who have been trained for specific regional programs. The programs include Basic Training
—which focuses on the essence of the customer-first philosophy, the importance of quality
and quality the Toyota way—and Expert Training, which cultivates expertise based on
quality case studies. The first training center was set up in Japan in May 2009 and is already
developing additional programs to be conducted at new centers as they are established.

The Transformation to an Evolutionary Business Model
Further Refinement of Our Customer First Principle
Maximizing Customer Satisfaction by Strengthening Bonds and
Building a Long-Term Trusting Relationship
The era of mass production and mass consumption, along with the 20th century, is behind us. Auto
manufacturers must evolve and adapt to the demands of the 21st century. Traditionally, the automotive
business has flowed downstream in one direction, from manufacturers (production), to dealers (sales),
to customers (purchase). At Toyota, we believe it is important to forge bonds that strengthen the link
between these three parties and build a long-term trusting relationship. These bonds partner the ”
hard power” of the basic vehicle functions of “go, turn and stop” with the ”soft power” of the function
“get connected.” In China, we are building innovative relationships with customers through the forging
of these bonds. In India, we are having success developing vehicles based on the needs of regional
customers, rather than superimposing our global models on local markets. Providing the ultimate user
experience through new relationships and realizing high-quality services that maximize customer
satisfaction are linchpins of our business model for this new era, which seeks to redefine Customer First
and Genchi Genbutsu for the next generation of automobile users.
Accelerating the Creation and Growth of the Toyota Brand through Total Experience
At Toyota, we believe consideration of the user’s total experience is an important factor in providing a
service that maximizes customer satisfaction. This total experience involves strengthening bonds and
building new relationships with customers by providing attractive sales services at three stages. The
first stage seeks to convey the appeal of a space containing a Toyota vehicle and instill the desire to
experience the inside of a Toyota dealership when viewed from the outside. The second stage focuses
on the customer’s experience inside the dealership, while the third stage concentrates on the customer
support experience provided by the aftercare service. By providing customers with this multi-staged
total experience, we can reproduce the essence of the Toyota brand and, in the process, develop
innovative services that we believe will accelerate our growth.
Improving Dealer Operations with e-TOYOTA
The “e” in our e-TOYOTA business comes from the word “evolutionary.” Accordingly, this business
represents the cutting edge in terms of Toyota’s evolution, a business started in Japan that will lead
the automobile industry into a new era, the scope of which has already been expanded overseas to
Asia, China and North America. GAC Toyota Motor Co., Ltd. (GTMC), located in the city of Guangzhou
in Guangdong, China, is engaged in flagship e-TOYOTA business projects.
The basic strategy underlying our e-TOYOTA business, the spearhead of our next-generation
business model, is to provide services that maximize customer satisfaction when searching for,
purchasing and owning a vehicle, with all stages supported by an information network system. Rather
than just planning IT solutions and tools, we apply them across the entire business domain, including
production, distribution, sales and aftercare, aiming to establish an optimal link to the materialization
of supply chain management.
Taking Genchi Genbutsu to the Next Level
From Design to Production, 100% Local Procurement:
The Development of Vehicles Based on Regional Specifications
From now on, the starting point for vehicle production will be the idea that the road makes
the vehicle. Consumer needs differ by road maintenance conditions and fuel prices. To achieve
growth in fast-growing, ever-changing developing nations, it is particularly important to make
vehicles that take into consideration regional characteristics including consumer needs and road
maintenance conditions. To this end, rather than the superimposition of a global model, the
commercialization of the Etios, a compact car for the Indian market, represents a breakthrough in
terms of construction methods that incorporated locally procured materials and local production
technologies from the design stage. Aiming to create high-quality vehicles at affordable prices,
we promoted localization, from the meticulous procurement of parts through the entire
manufacturing process, as well as perfecting the optimal design for local conditions. We will use
this experience and expertise to develop other emerging markets in countries around the world.

State-of-the-Art Developments for the Immense China Market
Toward the Realization of Innovative Customer Relationships
In 2004, GAC Toyota Motor Co., Ltd. (GTMC), was created as a factory that was the culmination of innovative
technology and the latest equipment for that time. The factory was innovative in terms of equipment as
well as the various elements that comprised its overall business approach, such as Just-In-Time, Jidoka,
standardization, process management and other Toyota fundamentals. Kaizen (improvements) were
implemented across the entire business domain by visualizing all vehicle-related operations in the areas of
manufacturing, distribution, sales and aftercare service, affecting GTMC as well as dealerships.
These activities have been put into practice as a result of the business revolution that united Toyota’s
cutting-edge IT technology, knowledge gained through dealer operation improvements and
cumulative human resource experience.
Standardizing Service Quality
Using e-CRB to Strengthen our Connection with Customers
e-CRB (evolutionary customer relationship building) is a suite of IT systems centered on a cutting-edge
customer management system that has significantly contributed to the standardization of service in the
massive Chinese market.
In 2009, the GTMC flagship dealer sold 4,300 new vehicles with the assistance of e-CRB in negotiations
and the strengthening of customer relations. Supporting the ongoing approach of potential customers
as well as regular contact with existing customers, the e-CRB assists with orders by standardizing and
partitioning the various processes involved in sales and service activities and provides integrated
management through IT. e-Dealers use e-CRB to share customer information with GTMC, which has
been introduced at all GTMC dealer facilities.

management system. i-CROP uses customer information to coordinate after-sales customer support,
aftercare service and vehicle replacement support, and provide a sophisticated dealer experience
with a service that thoroughly meets the needs of each customer.
Telematics Service for the Realization of Excellence in Customer Service
As part of our efforts to provide a satisfying ownership experience in China, we developed the
interactive information service G-BOOK, which makes use of an on-board telematics terminal. This
system, which connects to e-CRB via a wireless network, is able to determine specific customer vehicle
information, such as the timing of necessary maintenance. The service regularly gathers information
regarding the status of vehicle operation and is able to determine vehicle speed and location, which
enables it to understand what kind of region the purchased vehicle is being used in. G-BOOK is installed
in high-end Camry and Crown vehicles, and almost all Lexus vehicles (excluding certain low-end
models), and has been increasingly well received as a premium service. From 2010, we are expanding
the application of G-BOOK to include low-end Camry vehicles to increase the penetration ratio.
Extending the Kanban System to the Customer with the SLIM*6 Management Board
The most advanced and specialized component of the IT system used by GTMC is the Sales Logistics
Integrated Management (SLIM) system, a giant, multi-display management board that displays the real-
time status of production, inventory, distribution and sales at a single
glance. This system extends Toyota’s Kanban system by alerting users
to excess or insufficient inventory conditions, changing production
and distribution schedules, and allocating inventory to dealers as
necessary. During the global financial crisis of autumn 2008, the SLIM
management board showed high inventory levels, but emergency
measures were executed with the aid of real-time information that
enabled factory production to proceed without interruption.
SLIM Management Board
Responding to Chinese Customers’ Demand for Shorter Delivery Times with TOSS*7
The Total Order Support System (TOSS) makes further use of SLIM functionality to optimize the receipt
and placement of orders at dealerships. TOSS regulates long-term inventory based on a cautionary notice
regarding the difference between the number of ideal orders based on dealer sales performance and
other factors, and the actual number of orders. In China, customers select the vehicles they want from
available dealer inventories, which they then purchase and drive home as-is. Lost sales opportunities
are a direct result of running out of top-selling vehicle inventory. TOSS facilitates high dealer inventory
rotation while responding to Chinese customers’ demands for shorter delivery times.

Efforts toward the Establishment of Quality Service
Changing Awareness through Human Resource Training
In addition to the SLIM and e-CRB IT systems, GTMC’s true leadership lies in its efforts to transform the
way working people think. These efforts focus on two areas, the first of which is the standardization
of business operations. The process management and standardization that have been thoroughly
implemented in our factory operations were also introduced in our on-site sales and aftercare services.
e-CRB supports and displays the optimal movement of each employee.
The other area of leadership involves human resource training. The smooth operation of excellent IT
systems and customer visits to dealers, car sales and aftercare support are all activities conducted by
people. Regardless of how superior the SLIM and e-CRB systems may be, if users neglect to register data
into these systems, they will not work effectively. For this reason, the improvement of personnel skills
is an important issue with regard to the operation of this mechanism. GTMC focuses efforts on human
resource training for the stable operation of e-CRB, with particular emphasis on strengthening the
structure for educating dealers with daily training and guidance efforts.
In China, employees are extremely enthusiastic in their efforts to acquire advanced technologies
and expertise. As a company created from the ground up and employing many young people with no
previous training, GTMC has benefited from these improvements and is learning new operational skills.
The e-CRB System
Improves Customer
Service and Employee
Satisfaction
We introduced the e-CRB system in August 2005.
As a result, the daily recording of sales, CR and
service staff activities has become a significant
asset to our organization. Of course, this is also
directly linked to our staff’s effectiveness and sense
of achievement. In this way, we believe the e-CRB
system contributes both to customer satisfaction
(CS) and employee satisfaction (ES).

Ivan Yu, President
Guangzhou Denker Lexus and e-CRB
Guangzhou Denker Lexus is a Lexus dealership in Guangzhou, China, that opened in
February 2005. In August of the same year, we launched the e-CRB system with the
goal of improving customer satisfaction. Using i-CROP, we were able to consolidate
the management of all service appointment information in one place as opposed to
the former method, which was spread out across individual employee memos and
computers. Furthermore, we are also able to share information regarding service
appointments and work in progress via the SMB system. We established a specialized
customer support division that uses e-CRB to develop
regular customer follow-up activities. As a result, we are
able to approach customers in a timely manner and have
improved the retention ratio from 50% to 90%. Also, the
introduction of System Trolleys in an attempt to improve
operating efficiency during maintenance resulted in the
reduction of time required for maintenance activities from
one hour to 26 minutes. We have expanded the scope of
the effective use of IT in sales activities such as potential
customer follow-ups in an effort to continue providing
customers with a high level of service every time we are
in contact with them.

Meticulous Adherence to Customer Perspective and Genchi Genbutsu
Toyota began introducing compact strategic vehicles into the Indian market in 2006, which were
developed specifically for India rather than adapting existing global models for the Indian market.
Based on the concept of providing an affordably priced vehicle that meets the demands of the Indian
market, Toyota made painstaking efforts to understand local needs from the customers’ perspective
and provide optimal products at an appropriate price in an attempt to increase demand.
While thoroughly pursuing Toyota’s high QDR global standards regarding the strength and reliability
of the basic performance aspects of “go, turn and stop,” we traveled around India, listening carefully to
customer concerns with respect to sound and ride comfort, ease of operation and other performance-
related areas, as well as the practicality of vehicle functions and equipment, in an effort to fully
understand customer needs.
At the same time, at the development stage, we made an effort to put our Genchi Genbutsu
(on-site, hands-on experience) principles into practice by placing a priority on examining materials
that can be procured locally and adopting structures
and construction methods that are compatible with
local production technology. The application of Genchi
Genbutsu is not limited to India; this is how Toyota
establishes solid positions in countries throughout
the world. Etios is a newly developed compact vehicle
in line with Toyota’s global strategy. The knowledge
gained through the application of Genchi Genbutsu in
India will be utilized by Toyota in other projects around
the world.

Developing Products from the Customer’s Perspective
in India’s High-Growth Market
Development of New Compact Car Etios
In recent years, the compact car market has been expanding rapidly, primarily in developing nations.
This trend is also true in India, as customer demands for affordably priced, convenient vehicles are
increasing by the day. Amid the rapid economic development of the past several years, India’s middle
class has grown significantly, from 8% of households earning between 200 thousand and 1 million
rupees in fiscal 2005 to 13% of households earning the same amount in fiscal 2009. One consequence
of this trend was the sale of 2.27 million new vehicles in India in 2009, a 14% increase compared with
the previous year. To achieve growth in the fast-growing Indian market, Toyota engineers personally
conducted market research to review function and performance from a local perspective. The new
compact car Etios is the result of these efforts.
Toyota’s Position in the Indian Market
In the Indian market in the second half of 2008, automotive manufacturers launched new models
in the B-segment (subcompact), increasing the percentage of this segment in the passenger
vehicle market. As a class of vehicles positioned to attract new customers, B-segment or smaller
vehicles are expected to continue to play an important role in the market.
Toyota has established an image as a top-name brand in India because of our achievement of
advanced levels of quality, durability and reliability (QDR) with models such as the Corolla, Camry,
Innova, Fortuner and Land Cruiser. However, until now, Toyota did not offer entry-level vehicles
for Indian customers. This was what led to Toyota’s development of a compact vehicle that
sought to provide high QDR standards at an affordable price.

Etios Development
High QDR Features at an Affordable Price
High QDR features at an affordable price are indispensable in India. Toyota began developing
its first B-segment car for the Indian market by placing the highest priority on developing an
affordably priced vehicle that is within reach of middle-class (family users) while providing value
that is a step above the average and focusing on three selling points: “Highest Quality in its Class”
with the inheritance of Toyota QDR, “Comfortable and Enjoyable Space for All” with superior
seating comfort and storage and “Refined Style” that is unique to the market.
Global Safety Standards
Toyota conducted thorough safety research with regard to the Indian Etios. Customers in
India often use vehicles to transport family members to and from different locations and on
trips. Therefore, a sense of security when transporting precious family members is an essential
requirement. Toyota pursued safety performance from both active and passive perspectives,
focusing on safety requirements that surpass those of the competition.
Local Climate Countermeasures
In addition, when creating measures to counter the rusting and flooding that are possible in
India’s diverse climate, we began by determining the areas on the body where rusting most easily
occurs. To this end, body engineers traveled all over India, from coastal to inland regions, to verify
areas prone to rusting and the severity of its occurrence. Based on this information, we are one of
the few companies to adopt a rust-resistant sheet for sensitive areas. In consideration of the road
flooding that frequently occurs during the rainy season in India, parts easily damaged by water,
such as electrical components, sensors and shock absorbers, were designed to alleviate moisture-
related problems and ensure high reliability.
By selecting functions and equipment deemed necessary from the customers’ perspective, the
Etios truly embodies the idea of a high-quality vehicle at an affordable price based on Toyota’s
high standards of quality, durability and reliability.
Recognizing the Need to
Achieve High QDR
at an Affordable Price
Yoshinori Noritake
Toyota Passenger Vehicle
Development Center 2
Chief Engineer
“In 2006, I visited India to determine the price range
that was affordable to customers there and find out
exactly what customers were looking for in terms of
performance, functions and equipment. During my
visit, I encountered severe weather, narrow roads,
chronic traffic congestion and rough road surfaces,
and observed that parking spaces were extremely
limited. Experiencing this environment first hand,
I understood the importance of B-segment cars
to this market and was able to gain first-hand
knowledge of the basic performance most suited
to this environment.
After our visit, we interviewed and surveyed a
total of 700 customers in the summer of 2006 to
clearly identify and further understand what is important to customers when purchasing a
B-segment car. We found that cost, fuel efficiency, space and style are all major concerns.
We also discovered that Indians expect vehicles to break down and that they are prepared
to fix them if they do.
By creating a vehicle that thoroughly incorporated these findings and provided
performance and equipment at a price consistent with the customers’ perspective, we felt
confident that demand from Indian customers would be high. We also recognized that,
by incorporating Toyota’s strong QDR qualities to introduce a “failure-proof car” into the
market, we would also be able to reduce running costs and pleasantly surprise customers
who have come to expect breakdowns as a fact of life. It was in this spirit that the Etios
was created as an affordably priced vehicle that is a class above the competition.
The name Etios is based on the Greek word “ethos,” which means spirit, character and
ideals. When we conducted local preference
surveys to determine which name resonated
most strongly with the people of India, Etios
stood out as the overwhelming choice.
The Etios was developed and designed
from the perspective of customers in India
and is produced in India. By injecting Toyota
QDR into every detail of the vehicle, we were
able to create a high-quality vehicle at an
affordable price offering the essential functions,
performance and equipment demanded by
customers in India.”

During the year, Automotive Operations in China, India and other emerging markets continued
to expand, and stimulus measures supported demand in developed countries. Nevertheless,
overall market conditions remained difficult, owing to a demand shift toward compact, more
affordably priced vehicles.
Amid these conditions, Toyota’s consolidated vehicle sales declined 330 thousand units, or 4.4%, to
7.24 million units. Consolidated vehicle production also decreased 242 thousand units, or 3.4%, to 6.81
million units. In addition to lower vehicle production and sales, performance was also impacted by currency
exchange fluctuations, resulting in a 7.4% decrease in net revenues to ¥17.2 trillion. In terms of operating
income, cost-reduction efforts and decreased fixed costs resulted in an operating loss of ¥86.3
billion, a ¥308.5 billion improvement over the ¥394.8 billion operating loss in the previous fiscal year.
Performance by geographic segments was as follows.
Europe
Consolidated vehicle sales in Europe during the period under review declined 19.2%, or
204 thousand units, to 858 thousand units.
Toyota’s European market share (25 countries) was 5.7%. Lexus sales totaled approximately
26 thousand units.
Consolidated production declined 10.2%, to 433 thousand units.
Net revenues decreased 28.7%, or ¥866.1 billion, to ¥2.1 trillion. In terms of operating income,
efforts to reduce fixed costs and achieve cost reduction resulted in an operating loss of
¥33.0 billion, a ¥110.3 billion improvement over the ¥143.3 billion operating loss in the previous fiscal year.
Asia
Led by robust sales in Taiwan and Thailand, consolidated vehicle sales in Asia grew 8.2%, or
74 thousand units, to 979 thousand units. Consolidated production increased 7.8%, to 1.02 million units.
Although net revenues declined 2.4%, or ¥64.0 billion, to ¥2.7 trillion, operating income increased
15.6%, or ¥27.5 billion, to ¥203.6 billion as a result of increases in production and sales. Furthermore,
unit sales* in China, where growth is expected to continue, grew 21.2%, to 716 thousand units in 2009.
* Unit sales figures for China include domestically produced units as well as units imported from Japan.
Japan
Fiscal 2010 consolidated domestic sales increased 11.2%, or 218 thousand units, to 2.16 million units as
a result of the aggressive introduction of new products and the sales efforts of domestic dealers. Toyota
and Lexus market shares excluding minivehicles were 48.2% and 44.3% including minivehicles, both
of which represent the highest market share yet achieved by Toyota. Furthermore, Lexus sales totaled
Central and South America, Oceania, Africa, the Middle East, etc.
Toyota’s consolidated vehicle sales in all these regions were sluggish in fiscal 2010, declining
21.1%, or 304 thousand units, to 1.14 million units in total. Consolidated production in Central
and South America, Oceania and Africa decreased 20.3%, or 91 thousand units, to 357 thousand units.
As a result, net revenues declined 11.1%, or ¥209.1 billion, to ¥1.7 trillion, while net income

optimally allocating resources in areas where we want to advance.
Accelerating Growth: Support for Developing Nations and
Next-Generation Eco-Cars
To accelerate growth, we are placing a priority on business in developing nations and on
next-generation eco-cars.
First, with regard to developing nations, we will promote the expansion of product
lineups primarily in China and India, as well as the development of a production system.
In fast-growing China, a new plant was built in Changchun to further expand production
capacity in response to local demand, with operation scheduled to commence in the first
half of 2012. To expand Toyota’s product lineup, we have begun local production of the
Camry hybrid, following the Prius. Furthermore, in the Indian market, the newly developed
Etios compact car, designed to thoroughly meet the needs of local drivers, is scheduled to
go on sale at the end of this year.
Second, with regard to our priority focus on next-generation eco-cars, we plan on raising
the level of hybrid technology and expanding models. As for plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHVs),
we have begun aggressive efforts toward a 2012 sales launch. In terms of electric vehicles
(EVs), in May we announced a business partnership with Silicon Valley EV venture Tesla
Motors with the aim of strengthening our next-generation eco-car development structure.

To respond to dramatic changes in the business environment, TFS will actively strengthen
its internal controls and business infrastructure, focusing on the IT platform, human resource

Toyota uses technologies and expertise gained from automotive operations to operate a
variety of businesses that help people lead more fulfilling and enjoyable lives. Although the
number of homes sold in the core housing business continued to improve, overall sales in this
segment were lower than last year, resulting in decreased revenues and income in fiscal 2010.
M a r k e t E n v i r o n m e n t a n d P e r f o r m a n c e S u m m a r y
In fiscal 2010, net revenues of other business operations declined ¥237.3 billion, or 20.0%, to
¥947.6 billion and operating income decreased ¥18.8 billion, to a loss of ¥8.9 billion. This was due
to sales decreases in the information technology and telecommunications business and other
businesses, although the number of home sales in the housing business—a core business in this
segment—fell slightly from the previous year.
Other business operations include the intelligent transport systems, information technology
and telecommunications, e-TOYOTA, housing, marine, and biotechnology and afforestation
businesses. In all these operations, we are fostering a workplace culture that encourages creativity
and entrepreneurship. Also, we are seeking ideas for new businesses outside the Toyota Group as
another key aspect in order to create future core businesses.
Intelligent Transport Systems Business
Toyota is involved in the planning and development of products and services for Intelligent
Transport Systems (ITS). We view this technology as a valuable way to link motor vehicles and
transportation infrastructures, thereby contributing to sustainable economic development.
We are continuing work on the creation of vehicle–infrastructure cooperative systems that
support safe driving so that traffic accidents of the future can be prevented more effectively
than current safety technologies allow. To this end, we participated in road tests and public
demonstrations in various regions through the cooperation of the public and private sectors.
In the fall of 2009, Toyota developed a DSRC* unit that provides drivers with information
about obstacles on the road ahead. This technology has been introduced into the roadway
infrastructure with units already installed in some vehicles.

Information Technology and Telecommunications Business
In addition to serving as a sales agency for cell phones provided by KDDI Corporation, a general
telecommunications service provider, Toyota is engaged in the planning and commercialization of services that
integrate vehicles and cell phones. Toyota is enhancing the comfort of cars with car navigation system technology
that makes use of wireless Bluetooth® communications*, the hands-free telephone technology, enabling the
playback of songs that have been downloaded on a cell phone, and the Seamless Navigation System, which
allows users to enter a destination by transferring store and facility location data obtained with a cell phone.
* Bluetooth® is a wireless technology that uses short length radio waves to enable communications between cell phones and other devices over short distances.
e-TOYOTA Business
Toyota is developing e-TOYOTA business operations to facilitate the integration of IT services and automobiles.
We designed and developed the GAZOO members-only automobile portal site, a three-dimensional virtual city
called TOYOTA METAPOLIS, and other services. In the field of telematics, we are developing G-BOOK/G-Link, an
information service for onboard terminals, with other telematics services planned for China and other countries.

Housing Business
Since Toyota entered the housing business in 1975, Toyota Home operations have expanded to
provide homes offering high durability and earthquake resistance, as well as excellent security,
health and environmental features. From January 2010, we began using the catch all phrase
Eco-Mirai Home as an expression of the product features involved in our building environment-
friendly homes that conserve and create energy while having the durability to last for many years.
Our Sincé home series, which reduce overall household CO2 emissions, received a special award
for energy and CO2 conservation at the House of the Year in Electric 2009 Awards in Japan.

Marine Business
In the marine business, Toyota manufactures and sells pleasure boats, marine engines and a
variety of marine components. All products take full advantage of our engine technologies and
other advanced technologies cultivated during years of automotive manufacturing.
Our PONAM-28L luxury fishing cruiser received the first Japan Boat of the Year award in March
2009 and the Good Design Award in October 2009.

Biotechnology and Afforestation Business
Toyota is making every effort to contribute to the creation of a resource recycling society through
its biotechnology and afforestation operations.
Following previous afforestation and forestry development projects in Australia, the Philippines and China,
we are engaged in a forest restoration model project in the town of Odaicho, located in Japan’s Mie Prefecture.
We are proactively developing floriculture, roof gardening and bio-plastic businesses, and in
September 2009 we were awarded the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Award
at the Eighth Competition for Specialized Greening Technology for Rooftops, Wall Facings and New

In fiscal 2010, R&D expenditures totaled ¥725.3 billion, down 19.7% from the previous fiscal year,
representing 3.8% of consolidated net revenues. We worked closely with suppliers to develop
components and products more efficiently and took steps to reduce our own R&D expenses. At
the same time, we plan to continue making substantial investments in R&D involving forward-
looking, leading-edge technologies and the development of products associated with the
negative aspects of driving, such as traffic accidents and the burden that automobiles have on the
environment, energy, and safety. These investments are essential to preserving our competitive
environment, and maximize the positive aspects, such as driving pleasure, comfort, and convenience.

Intellectual Property Guiding Principle
●
Securing greater corporate flexibility and maximizing corporate value
through the appropriate acquisition and utilization of intellectual
property.
Intellectual Property Activities
Toyota’s competitiveness springs from the forward-looking R&D stance that is instrumental to
core strengths associated with products and technologies. Underlying each new product that
emerges from R&D, there are always intellectual properties such as inventions and expertise that
we value as important management resources.
Intellectual Property Systems
R&D and intellectual property activities are organizationally linked to enable us to focus on
selected development themes and build a strong patent portfolio. We have established an
Intellectual Property Committee made up of individuals involved with management, R&D, and
intellectual property. This committee acquires and utilizes important intellectual property that
contributes to business operations and helps determine policies for management risks associated
with intellectual property.
Intellectual Property Strategies
Toyota carefully analyzes patents and the need for patents in each area of research to formulate
more effective R&D strategies. We identify R&D projects in which Toyota should acquire patents,
and file relevant applications as necessary to help build a strong global patent portfolio. In
addition, we want to contribute to sustainable mobility by promoting the spread of technologies
with environmental and safety benefits. This is why we take an open stance to patent licensing,
and grant licenses when appropriate terms are met. A good example of this policy is the licensing
to other companies of patents in the area of hybrid technology, which is one of our core
technologies involving environmental energy.

Toyota’s Basic Approach to Corporate Governance
Toyota’s top management priority is to steadily increase corporate value over the long term. Further,
our fundamental management philosophy is to remain a trusted corporate citizen in international
society through open and fair business activities that honor the language and spirit of the law of every
nation. In order to put that philosophy into practice, Toyota builds favorable relationships with all of its
stakeholders, including shareholders, customers, business partners, local communities, and employees.
We are convinced that providing products that fully cater to customer needs is essential to achieve stable,
long-term growth. That philosophy is outlined in the “Guiding Principles at Toyota.” Further, to explain
those principles in more detailed terms, we prepared and issued the “Contribution towards Sustainable
Development” statement in January 2005. Through such initiatives, Toyota is taking concrete measures to
reinforce its corporate governance functions and to become an even more competitive global company.
Specifically, we have introduced a unique management system focused on prompt decision
making for developing our global strategy and speeding up operations. Furthermore, we have a
range of long-standing in-house committees and councils responsible for monitoring and discussing
management and corporate activities from the viewpoints of various stakeholders to ensure
heightened transparency and the fulfillment of social obligations.
Ultimately, however, a well-developed awareness of ethics among individuals is the key to successful
governance systems. Without such awareness—regardless of the governance structure of a company—
corporate governance cannot function effectively. Toyota has a unique corporate culture that places emphasis
on problem solving and preventative measures, such as problem solving based on the actual situation on
the site and highlighting problems by immediately flagging and sharing them. In other words, because
Toyota’s approach is to build in quality through manufacturing processes, enhancing the quality of everyday
operations strengthens governance. Toyota’s management team and employees conduct operations and
make decisions founded on that common system of checks and balances and on high ethical standards.
Toyota’s Management System
Toyota introduced its current management system in 2003. The main differences between the
current system and the former system are that the current system set a new non-board position of
Managing Officers and reduced the number of directors. Under the current system, with respect
to various operational functions across the entire Company, in principle the Senior Managing
Directors, who are Directors, serve as the highest authorities of their specific operational functions
while non-board Managing Officers implement the actual operations. The distinctive feature of
this system is that, based on Toyota’s philosophy of emphasizing developments on the site, the
Senior Managing Directors serve as the link between management and on-site operations, instead
of focusing exclusively on management. As a result, this system enables the management to make
decisions directly with on-site operations by reflecting on-site personnel opinions on management
strategy and swiftly implementing management decisions into actual operations.
Systems for Ensuring Appropriate Management
As a system to ensure appropriate management, Toyota has convened meetings of its International
Advisory Board (IAB) annually in principle since 1996. The IAB consists of approximately 10
distinguished advisors from overseas with backgrounds in a wide range of fields, including politics,
economics, the environment, and business. Through the IAB, we receive advice on a diversity of
business issues from a global perspective. In addition, Toyota has a wide variety of conferences
and committees for deliberations and the monitoring of management and corporate activities that
reflect the views of a range of stakeholders, including the Labor-Management Council, the Joint
Labor-Management Round Table Conference, the Toyota Environment Committee, and the Stock
Option Committee. Moreover, Toyota established the CSR Committee by integrating the Corporate
Ethics Committee and the Corporate Philanthropy Committee in October 2007.
Accountability
Toyota has engaged in timely and fair disclosure of corporate and financial information as stated in
“CSR Policy: Contribution towards Sustainable Development.” In order to ensure the accuracy, fairness,
and timely disclosure of information, Toyota has established the Disclosure Committee chaired by
an officer of the Accounting Division. The Committee holds regular meetings for the purpose of
preparation, reporting and assessment of its annual securities report, quarterly report under the
Financial Instruments and Exchange Law of Japan and Form 20-F under the U.S. Securities Exchange
Act, and also holds extraordinary committee meetings from time to time whenever necessary.
Compliance
To firmly establish corporate ethics and ensure strict compliance, Toyota’s CSR Committee, consisting of
Directors at the executive vice president level and above as well as representatives of Corporate Auditors, to
deliberate important issues and measures relating to corporate ethics, compliance and risk management.
Toyota has also created a number of facilities for employees to make inquiries concerning compliance
matters, including the Compliance Hotline, which enables them to consult with an outside attorney,
and takes measures to ensure that Toyota is aware of significant information concerning legal
compliance as quickly as possible.
Toyota will implement the tenets of ethical business practice by further promoting the “Guiding
Principles at Toyota” and the “Toyota Code of Conduct” and by educating and training employees at
all levels and in all areas of operations.
To monitor the management, Toyota has adopted an auditor system that is based on the Japanese
Corporation Act. In order to increase transparency of corporate activities, four of Toyota’s seven
Corporate Auditors are outside Corporate Auditors. Corporate Auditors support the Company’s
corporate governance efforts by undertaking audits in accordance with the audit policies and plans
determined by the Board of Corporate Auditors.
Toyota has secured the personnel and framework supporting the audit by Corporate Auditors.
The Outside Corporate Auditors advise Toyota from a fair and neutral perspective, based on their
broad experiences and insight in their respective field of expertise. The state of internal controls
and internal audit are reported to Corporate Auditors (including Outside Corporate Auditors)
through the Board of Corporate Auditors and the “CSR Committee”, and the status of accounting
audits is reported by independent External Auditors to the Corporate Auditors (including Outside
Corporate Auditors) through the Board of Corporate Auditors.

Law, which is applicable to Toyota starting with the year ended March 31, 2009, there is an assessment
system to ensure that financial statements and other financial information are prepared properly. In
order to enhance the reliability of the financial reporting of Toyota, the three auditing functions, audit
by Corporate Auditors, internal audit, and accounting audit by Independent External Auditors, aid in
conducting an effective and efficient audit through meetings held periodically and as necessary to
share information and come to understandings through discussion on audit plans and results.

Corporate Social Responsibility
To maintain stable, long-term growth in international society, companies have to earn the respect and trust
of society and individuals. Rather than simply contributing to economic development through operational
activities, growing in harmony with society is a must for good corporate citizens. Mindful of the foregoing,
Toyota has a range of committees that are tasked with monitoring corporate activities and management in
relation to social responsibilities, including the CSR Committee and the Toyota Environment Committee.
Toyota’s Basic Approach to Internal Control System

Toyota’s Basic Policy and Preparation towards the Elimination of Antisocial Forces
(1)Basic Policy for Elimination of Antisocial Forces
Based upon the “Guiding Principles at Toyota” and the “Toyota Code of Conduct,” Toyota’s
basic policy is to have no relationship with antisocial forces. Toyota will take resolute action
as an organization against any undue claims and actions by antisocial forces or groups, and
has drawn the attention of such policy to its employees by means such as clearly stipulating
it in the “Toyota Code of Conduct.”
(2)Preparation towards Elimination of Antisocial Forces

Charge of Preventing Undue Claims
Toyota established divisions that oversee measures against antisocial forces (“Divisions
Overseeing Measures Against Antisocial Forces”) in its major offices as well as assigned persons
in charge of preventing undue claims. Toyota also established a system whereby undue claims,
organized violence and criminal activities conducted by antisocial forces are immediately
reported to and consulted with Divisions Overseeing Measures Against Antisocial Forces.
2)Liaising with Specialist Organizations
Toyota has been strengthening its liaison with specialist organizations by joining liaison
committees organized by specialists such as the police. It has also been receiving guidance
on measures to be taken against antisocial forces from such committees.
3)Collecting and Managing Information concerning Antisocial Forces
By liaising with experts and the police, Divisions Overseeing Measures Against Antisocial
Forces share up-to-date information on antisocial forces and utilize such information to
call Toyota’s employees’ attention to antisocial forces.
4)Preparation of Manuals
Toyota compiles cases concerning measures against antisocial forces and distributes them
to each department within Toyota.
5)Training Activities
Toyota promotes training activities to prevent damages caused by antisocial forces by
sharing information on antisocial forces within the Company as well as holding lectures at
Toyota and its Group companies.

Operational and other risks faced by Toyota that could significantly influence the decisions
of investors are set out below. However, the following does not encompass all risks related
to the operations of Toyota. There are risk factors other than those given below. Any such
risk factors could influence the decisions of investors. The forward-looking statements
included below are based on information available as of June 25, 2010, the filing date of
Form 20-F.
Industry and Business Risks
The worldwide automotive market is highly competitive
The worldwide automotive market is highly competitive. Toyota faces intense competition from automotive
manufacturers in the markets in which it operates. Competition has intensified amidst difficult overall
market conditions due to the weak global economy. In addition, competition is likely to further intensify in
light of continuing globalization in the worldwide automotive industry, possibly resulting in further industry
reorganization. Factors affecting competition include product quality and features, safety, reliability, the amount
of time required for innovation and development, pricing, fuel economy, customer service and financing
terms. Increased competition may lead to lower vehicle unit sales, which may result in a further downward
price pressure and adversely affect Toyota’s financial condition and results of operations. Toyota’s ability to
adequately respond to the recent rapid changes in the automotive market and to maintain its competitiveness
will be fundamental to its future success in existing and new markets and its market share. There can be no
assurances that Toyota will be able to compete successfully in the future.
The worldwide automotive industry is highly volatile
Each of the markets in which Toyota competes has been subject to considerable volatility in demand.
Demand for vehicles depends to a large extent on social, political and economic conditions in a given
market and the introduction of new vehicles and technologies. As Toyota’s revenues are derived
from sales in markets worldwide, economic conditions in such markets are particularly important to
Toyota. During fiscal 2010, despite government efforts to stimulate demand in Japan, North America
and Europe, which are Toyota’s main markets, market conditions in those areas remained difficult,
and Toyota was adversely affected by changes in the market structure with further shifts in consumer
demand to compact and low-priced vehicles. Such weakness in demand for automobiles and changes
in market structure is continuing, and it is unclear how long this situation would continue or how it
would transition in the future. Toyota’s financial condition and results of operations may be adversely
affected if the weakness in demand for automobiles and changes in market structure continue or
progress further. Demand may also be affected by factors directly impacting vehicle price or the cost of
purchasing and operating vehicles such as sales and financing incentives, prices of raw materials and
parts and components, cost of fuel and governmental regulations (including tariffs, import regulation
and other taxes). Volatility in demand may lead to lower vehicle unit sales, which may result in a further
downward price pressure and adversely affect Toyota’s financial condition and results of operations.
Toyota’s future success depends on its ability to offer new innovative competitively
priced products that meet customer demand on a timely basis
Meeting customer demand with attractive new vehicles and reducing the amount of time required
for product development are critical to automotive manufacturers. In particular, it is critical to
meet customer demand with respect to quality, safety and reliability. The timely introduction of
new vehicle models, at competitive prices, meeting rapidly changing customer preferences and
demands is more fundamental to Toyota’s success than ever, as the automotive market is rapidly
transforming in light of the weak global economic conditions. There is no assurance, however,
that Toyota will adequately and appropriately respond to changing customer preferences and
demands with respect to quality, safety, reliability, styling and other features in a timely manner.
Even if Toyota succeeds in perceiving customer preferences and demands, there is no assurance
that Toyota will be capable of developing and manufacturing new, price-competitive products in
a timely manner with its available technology, intellectual property, sources of raw materials and
parts and components, and production capacity, including cost reduction capacity. Further, there
is no assurance that Toyota will be able to implement capital expenditures at the level and times
planned by management. Toyota’s inability to develop and offer products that meet customers’
preferences and demands with respect to quality, safety, reliability, styling and other features in a
timely manner could result in a lower market share and reduced sales volumes and margins, and
may adversely affect Toyota’s financial condition and results of operations.
Toyota’s ability to market and distribute effectively is an integral part of Toyota’s successful sales
Toyota’s success in the sale of vehicles depends on its ability to market and distribute effectively
based on distribution networks and sales techniques tailored to the needs of its customers.
There is no assurance that Toyota will be able to develop sales techniques and distribution
networks that effectively adapt to changing customer preferences or changes in the regulatory
environment in the major markets in which it operates. Toyota’s inability to maintain well-
developed sales techniques and distribution networks may result in decreased sales and market
share and may adversely affect its financial condition and results of operations.
Toyota’s success is significantly impacted by its ability to maintain and develop its brand image
In the highly competitive automotive industry, it is critical to maintain and develop a brand image.
In order to maintain and develop a brand image, it is necessary to further increase customers’
confidence by providing safe, high-quality products that meet customer preferences and demands.
If Toyota is unable to effectively maintain and develop its brand image as a result of its inability to
provide safe, high-quality products or as result of the failure to promptly implement safety measures
such as recalls when necessary, vehicle unit sales and/or sale prices may decrease, and as a result
revenues and profits may not increase as expected or may decrease, adversely affecting its financial
condition and results of operations.
The worldwide financial services industry is highly competitive
The worldwide financial services industry is highly competitive. Increased competition in automobile
financing may lead to decreased margins. A decline in Toyota’s vehicle unit sales, an increase in residual
value risk due to lower used vehicle price, an increase in the ratio of credit losses and increased funding

costs are factors which may impact Toyota’s financial services operations. The likelihood of these
factors materializing continues to remain at a high level amidst weak global economic conditions, and
competition in automobile financing has intensified. If Toyota is unable to adequately respond to the
changes and competition in automobile financing, Toyota’s financial services operations may adversely
affect its financial condition and results of operations.
Financial Market and Economic Risks
Toyota’s operations are subject to currency and interest rate fluctuations
Toyota is sensitive to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and is principally exposed to
fluctuations in the value of the Japanese yen, the U.S. dollar and the euro and, to a lesser extent, the
Australian dollar, the Canadian dollar and the British pound. Toyota’s consolidated financial statements,
which are presented in Japanese yen, are affected by foreign currency exchange fluctuations through
both translation risk and transaction risk. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates may affect Toyota’s
pricing of products sold and materials purchased in foreign currencies. In particular, strengthening of
the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar can have an adverse effect on Toyota’s operating results. The
Japanese yen has been appreciating against major currencies including the U.S. dollar in the past year.
If the Japanese yen continues to appreciate against major currencies, including the U.S. dollar, Toyota’s
financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
Toyota believes that its use of certain derivative financial instruments including interest rate
swaps and increased localized production of its products have reduced, but not eliminated, the
effects of interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Nonetheless, a negative
impact resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest
rates may adversely affect Toyota’s financial condition and results of operations.
High prices of raw materials and strong pressure on Toyota’s suppliers could negatively
impact Toyota’s profitability
Increases in prices for raw materials that Toyota and Toyota’s suppliers use in manufacturing their
products or parts and components such as steel, precious metals, non-ferrous alloys including
aluminum, and plastic parts, may lead to higher production costs for parts and components. This
could, in turn, negatively impact Toyota’s future profitability because Toyota may not be able to
pass all those costs on to its customers or require its suppliers to absorb such costs.
The downturn in the financial markets could adversely affect Toyota’s ability to raise capital
The world economy continues to be weak and business conditions remain difficult. A number of
financial institutions and investors have been facing difficulties providing capital to the financial
markets at levels corresponding to their own financial capacity. As a result, there is a risk that
companies may not be able to raise capital under terms that they would expect to receive with their
creditworthiness. If Toyota is unable to raise the necessary capital under appropriate conditions on a
timely basis, Toyota’s financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
Political, Regulatory and Legal Risks
The automotive industry is subject to various governmental regulations
The worldwide automotive industry is subject to various laws and governmental regulations
including those related to vehicle safety and environmental matters such as emission levels, fuel
economy, noise and pollution. In particular, automotive manufacturers such as Toyota are required
to implement safety measures such as recalls for vehicles that do not or may not comply with
the safety standards of laws and governmental regulations. In addition, Toyota may, in order to
reassure its customers of the safety of Toyota’s vehicles, decide to voluntarily implement recalls or
other safety measures even if the vehicle complies with the safety standards of relevant laws and
governmental regulations. Many governments also impose tariffs and other trade barriers, taxes
and levies, or enact price or exchange controls. Toyota has incurred, and expects to incur in the
future, significant costs in complying with these regulations. If Toyota launches products that result
in safety measures such as recalls, Toyota may incur various costs including significant costs for free
repairs. Furthermore, new legislation or changes in existing legislation may also subject Toyota to
additional expenses in the future. If Toyota incurs significant costs related to implementing safety
measures or meeting laws and governmental regulations, Toyota’s financial condition and results of
operations may be adversely affected. Toyota may become subject to various legal proceedings.
Toyota may become subject to various legal proceedings
As an automotive manufacturer, Toyota may become subject to legal proceedings in respect of
various issues, including product liability and infringement of intellectual property. Toyota may
also be subject to legal proceedings brought by its shareholders and governmental proceedings
and investigations. Toyota is in fact currently subject to a number of pending legal proceedings
and government investigations. A negative outcome in one or more of these pending legal
proceedings could adversely affect Toyota’s financial condition and results of operations.
Toyota may be adversely affected by political instabilities, fuel shortages or interruptions
in transportation systems, natural calamities, wars, terrorism and labor strikes
Toyota is subject to various risks associated with conducting business worldwide. These risks
include political and economic instability, natural calamities, fuel shortages, interruption in
transportation systems, wars, terrorisms, labor strikes and work stoppages. The occurrence of any
of these events in the major markets in which Toyota purchases materials, parts and components
and supplies for the manufacture of its products or in which its products are produced,
distributed or sold, may result in disruptions and delays in the operations of Toyota’s business.
Significant or prolonged disruptions and delays in Toyota’s business operations may adversely
affect Toyota’s financial condition and results of operations.

promotion measures. Also, the rapid appreciation of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar, the euro
and other currencies reduced the profitability of exports.
Despite the severe business environment, our dealers and suppliers remained fully committed
to providing as many vehicles as possible to customers. Our employees in Japan, as well as those
involved in overseas operations, made every effort to work together to achieve cost reductions and
decrease fixed costs. The result of their continued hard work was ¥1,690.0 billion in cost reductions, as
well as lowering the break-even point. These cost reductions were a result of the further strengthening
of activities in collaboration with our suppliers, including the expansion of models covered under
emergency VA (Value Analysis) from 15 to 50 vehicles. We also reviewed all expenses related to fixed
costs as well as made reductions to raise the efficiency of capital expenditures. We will continue to
improve our corporate structure in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011 and beyond.
Consolidated Financial Forecasts for Fiscal 2011
For fiscal 2011, ending March 31, 2011, we forecast vehicle sales of 7.29 million units, net
revenues of ¥19,200.0 billion, operating income of ¥280.0 billion, and net income of ¥310.0
billion on a consolidated basis. The exchange rates assumed for this forecast are ¥90 per US$1
and ¥125 per €1.
Consolidated operating income is expected to increase as a result of ongoing activities to
improve profitability, including ¥130.0 billion cost-reduction and a ¥160.0 billion decrease in
expenses. Factors that are expected to decline operating income include the effect of exchange
rate fluctuations amounting to ¥80.0 billion, sales volume/mix effects of ¥50.0 billion and
¥27.5 billion from other factors.
Looking ahead, to realize sustainable growth we will continue working to improve our

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Financial Section
All fi nancial information discussed in this section is derived from Toyotaʼs consolidated fi nancial
statements that appear elsewhere in this annual report. The fi nancial statements have been prepared
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Overview
fi nancial
include
The business segments of Toyota
automotive operations,
services
operations and all other operations. Automotive
operations are Toyotaʼs most signifi cant business
segment, accounting for 89% of Toyotaʼs total
revenues before the elimination of intersegment
revenues for fi scal 2010. Toyotaʼs primary markets
based on vehicle unit sales for fi scal 2010 were
Japan (30%), North America (29%), Europe (12%)
and Asia (14%). During fi scal 2010, as a result
of announcements of recalls and other safety
measures for several models of vehicles in several
countries, the number of recalls and other safety
measures increased. These recalls and other
safety measures have impacted the fi nancial
results of the automotive and fi nancial services
operations and led to a number of claims, lawsuits
and government investigations. As a result of the
foregoing, the fi scal 2010 operating results of the
automotive operations were principally aff ected
by factors including but not limited to the accrued
costs related to the recalls and other safety
measures announced in fi scal 2010, a temporary
decrease in sales mainly in North America and
additional costs resulting from a change in the
estimation model of expenses related to future
recalls and other safety measures. In fi scal 2010,
Toyota has employed an estimation model for
recalls and other safety measures which takes
into account Toyotaʼs historical experience and
individual occurrences of recalls and other safety
measures to accrue recall costs at the time of
vehicle sale. In addition, as a result of the above,
the fi scal 2010 operating results of the fi nancial
services operations were principally aff ected by
the evaluation for credit losses and residual value
losses at March 31, 2010. Not all of the impacts
described above are fi nancially signifi cant or
are able to be precisely measured. Toyota has
included in the following discussion and analysis,
where relevant, signifi cant impacts of these
items.
Automotive Market Environment
The worldwide automotive market is highly
competitive and volatile. The demand
for
automobiles is aff ected by a number of factors
including social, political and general economic
conditions; introduction of new vehicles and
technologies; and costs incurred by customers to
purchase and operate vehicles. These factors can
cause consumer demand to vary substantially in
diff erent geographic markets and for diff erent
types of automobiles.
The automotive industry generally experienced
diffi cult market conditions during fi scal 2010 due
to changes in market demand resulting from
a shift in consumer preference towards small
and low-price vehicles, despite the continuous
growth in China, India and other emerging
countries and the eff ects of government stimulus
packages in developed countries.

Consolidated Vehicle Sales
During fi scal
2009, Toyotaʼs
consolidated ve-
hicle unit sales in
Japan decreased
due to weak mar-
ket conditions as
compared to the
prior fi scal year.
During fi scal 2010,
sales in Japan in-
creased as com-
pared to the prior

troduction of new
products and sales eff orts of domestic dealers on
the sales of new products. In fi scal 2010, Toyota
and Lexus brandsʼ market share excluding mini-
vehicles was 48.2%, and Toyotaʼs market share
(including Daihatsu and Hino brands) including
mini-vehicles was 44.3%, and both market shares
represented record highs. Overseas vehicle unit
sales decreased during fi scal 2009 and 2010,
each compared to the prior fi scal year. During
fi scal 2009, overseas vehicle unit sales decreased,
particularly in North America and Europe, where

the contraction of automotive markets was
especially pronounced. During fi scal 2010, total
overseas vehicle unit sales decreased, particularly
in Europe, despite an increase in Asia.
Toyotaʼs share of total vehicle unit sales in
each market is infl uenced by the quality, safety,
reliability, price, design, performance, economy
and utility of Toyotaʼs vehicles compared with
those off ered by other manufacturers. The timely
introduction of new or redesigned vehicles is also
an important factor in satisfying customer needs.
Toyotaʼs ability to satisfy changing customer
preferences can aff ect its revenues and earnings
signifi cantly.
The profi tability of Toyotaʼs automotive
operations is aff ected by many factors. These
factors include:
(cid:12255)vehicle unit sales volumes,
(cid:12255)the mix of vehicle models and options sold,
(cid:12255)the level of parts and service sales,
(cid:12255)the levels of price discounts and other sales
incentives and marketing costs,
(cid:12255)the cost of customer warranty claims and
other customer satisfaction actions,
(cid:12255)the cost of research and development and
other fi xed costs,
(cid:12255)the prices of raw materials,

in
those attributed
(cid:12255)the effi cient use of production capacity, and
(cid:12255)changes in the value of the Japanese yen and
other currencies in which Toyota does busi-
ness.
Changes
laws, regulations, policies and
other governmental actions can also materially
impact the profi tability of Toyotaʼs automotive
operations. These laws, regulations and policies
include
to environmental
matters and vehicle safety, fuel economy and
emissions that can add signifi cantly to the cost
of vehicles. The European Union has enforced
a directive that requires manufacturers to be
fi nancially responsible for taking back end-of-
life vehicles and to take measures to ensure
that adequate used vehicle disposal facilities are
established and those hazardous materials and
recyclable parts are removed from vehicles prior to
scrapping. Please see “Legislation Regarding End-
of-Life Vehicles” “Information on the Company ̶
Business Overview ̶ Governmental Regulation,
Environmental and Safety Standards” and note
23 to the consolidated fi nancial statements
for a more detailed discussion of these laws,
regulations and policies.
Many governments also regulate local content,
impose tariff s and other trade barriers, and
enact price or exchange controls that can limit
an automakerʼs operations and can make the
repatriation of profi ts unpredictable. Changes
in these laws, regulations, policies and other
governmental actions may aff ect the production,
licensing, distribution or sale of Toyotaʼs products,
cost of products or applicable tax rates. Toyota
is currently one of the defendants in purported
national class actions alleging violations of the
U.S. Sherman Antitrust Act. Toyota believes that
its actions have been lawful. In order to avoid a
protracted dispute, however, Toyota entered
into a settlement agreement with the plaintiff s
at the end of February 2006. The settlement
agreement is pending the approval of the federal
district court, and immediately upon approval
the plaintiff s will, in accordance with the terms
of the settlement agreement, withdraw all
pending actions against Toyota in the federal
district court as well as all state courts and all
related actions will be closed. From time-to-time,
Toyota issues vehicle recalls and takes other
safety measures including safety campaigns in its
vehicles. In November 2009, Toyota announced
a safety campaign in North America for certain
models of Toyota and Lexus vehicles related to
fl oor mat entrapment of accelerator pedals, and
later expanded it to include additional models.
In January 2010, Toyota announced a recall in
North America for certain models of Toyota
vehicles related to sticking and slow-to-return
accelerator pedals. Also in January 2010, Toyota
recalled in Europe and China certain models of
Toyota vehicles related to sticking accelerator
pedals. In February 2010, Toyota announced a
worldwide recall related to the software program
that controls the antilock braking system (ABS)
in certain vehicles models including the Prius.
The recalls and other safety measures described
above have led to a number of claims, lawsuits
and government investigations against Toyota in
the United States. For a more detailed description
of these claims,
lawsuits and government
investigations, see note 23 to the consolidated
fi nancial statements.
The worldwide automotive industry is in a
period of global competition which may continue
for the foreseeable future, and in general the
competitive environment
in which Toyota
operates is likely to intensify. Toyota believes it
has the resources, strategies and technologies
in place to compete eff ectively in the industry
as an independent company for the foreseeable
future.

Financial Services Operations
The worldwide automobile fi nancial services
industry has become highly competitive due
to the contraction of automotive markets. As
competition increases, margins on fi nancing
transactions may decrease and market share
may also decline as customers obtain fi nancing
for Toyota vehicles from alternative sources.
loans and
leasing programs
Toyotaʼs fi nancial services operations mainly
include
for
customers and dealers. Toyota believes that its
ability to provide fi nancing to its customers is
an important value added service. Therefore,
Toyota has expanded its network of fi nance
subsidiaries in order to off er fi nancial services in
many countries.
Toyotaʼs competitors for retail fi nancing and
retail leasing include commercial banks, credit
unions and other fi nance companies. Meanwhile,
commercial banks and other captive automobile
fi nance companies also compete against Toyotaʼs
wholesale fi nancing activities.
Toyota reasonably estimated and recorded
allowance for credit losses and residual value
losses. This estimation includes the unfavorable
impact of the recalls and other safety measures
announced in fi scal 2010.
Toyotaʼs fi nancial assets decreased during fi scal
2010 primarily due to the impact of fl uctuations
in foreign currency translation rates.

Toyotaʼs fi nance receivables are subject to
collectability risks. These risks include consumer
and dealer insolvencies and insuffi cient collateral
values (less costs to sell) to realize the full carrying
values of these receivables. See discussion in the
Critical Accounting Estimates section regarding
“Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Credit
Losses” and note 11 to the consolidated fi nancial
statements regarding the allowance for doubtful
accounts and credit losses.
Toyota continues to originate leases to fi nance
new Toyota vehicles. These leasing activities
are subject to residual value risk. Residual value
losses could be incurred when the lessee of a
vehicle does not exercise the option to purchase
the vehicle at the end of the lease term. See
discussion in the Critical Accounting Estimates
in Operating
section regarding “Investment
Leases” and note 2 to the consolidated fi nancial
statements regarding the allowance for residual
value losses.
into
Toyota primarily enters
interest rate
swap agreements and cross currency interest
rate swap agreements to convert its fi xed-rate
debt to variable-rate functional currency debt.
A portion of the derivative instruments are
entered into to hedge interest rate risk from an
economic perspective and are not designated
to specifi c assets or
liabilities on Toyotaʼs
consolidated balance sheet and accordingly,
unrealized gains or losses related to derivatives
that are not designated are
recognized
currently in operations. See discussion in the
Critical Accounting Estimates section regarding
“Derivatives and Other Contracts at Fair Value”,
further discussion in the Market Risk Disclosures
section and note 20 to the consolidated fi nancial
statements.
Funding costs can aff ect the profi tability of
Toyotaʼs fi nancial services operations. Funding
costs are aff ected by a number of factors, some
of which are not in Toyotaʼs control. These factors
include general economic conditions, prevailing
interest rates and Toyotaʼs fi nancial strength.
Funding costs decreased during fi scal 2009 and
2010, mainly as a result of lower interest rates.
Toyota launched its credit card business in
Japan at the beginning of fi scal 2002. As of March
31, 2009, Toyota had 7.1 million cardholders, an
increase of 0.5 million cardholders compared
with March 31, 2008. As of March 31, 2010,
Toyota had 7.7 million cardholders, an increase
of 0.6 million cardholders compared with March
31, 2009. The credit card receivables at March 31,
2009 decreased by ¥1.1 billion from March 31,
2008 to ¥224.6 billion. The credit card receivables
at March 31, 2010 increased by ¥30.8 billion from
March 31, 2009 to ¥255.4 billion.
Other Business Operations
Toyotaʼs other business operations consist of
housing, including the manufacture and sale of
prefabricated homes; information technology
related businesses,
information

transport systems, GAZOO and other.
including
Toyota does not expect its other business
operations to materially contribute to Toyotaʼs
consolidated results of operations.
Currency Fluctuations
Toyota is aff ected by fl uctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates. In addition to the
Japanese yen, Toyota is principally exposed to
fl uctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar and
the euro and, to a lesser extent, the Australian
dollar, the Canadian dollar and the British pound.
Toyotaʼs consolidated fi nancial statements, which
are presented in Japanese yen, are aff ected by
foreign currency exchange fl uctuations through
both translation risk and transaction risk.
Translation risk
is the risk that Toyotaʼs
consolidated fi nancial statements for a particular
period or for a particular date will be aff ected by
changes in the prevailing exchange rates of the
currencies in those countries in which Toyota
does business compared with the Japanese
yen. Even though the fl uctuations of currency
exchange rates to the Japanese yen can be
substantial, and, therefore, signifi cantly impact
comparisons with prior periods and among the
various geographic markets, the translation risk
is a reporting consideration and does not refl ect
Toyotaʼs underlying results of operations. Toyota
does not hedge against translation risk.
Transaction risk is the risk that the currency
structure of Toyotaʼs costs and liabilities will
deviate from the currency structure of sales
proceeds and assets. Transaction risk relates
primarily to sales proceeds from Toyotaʼs non-
domestic operations from vehicles produced in
Japan.
location of
Toyota believes that the
its
production facilities in diff erent parts of the world
has signifi cantly reduced the level of transaction
risk. As part of its globalization strategy, Toyota
has continued
localize production by
constructing production facilities in the major
markets in which it sells its vehicles. In calendar
2008 and 2009, Toyota produced 64.1% and

64.5% of Toyotaʼs non-domestic sales outside
Japan, respectively. In North America, 57.4% and
60.0% of vehicles sold in calendar 2008 and 2009
respectively were produced locally. In Europe,
60.9% and 57.0% of vehicles sold in calendar 2008
and 2009 respectively were produced locally.
Localizing production enables Toyota to locally
purchase many of the supplies and resources
used in the production process, which allows for
a better match of local currency revenues with
local currency expenses.
Toyota also enters
foreign currency
transactions and other hedging instruments to
address a portion of its transaction risk. This has
reduced, but not eliminated, the eff ects of foreign
currency exchange rate fl uctuations, which in
some years can be signifi cant. See notes 20 and
21 to the consolidated fi nancial statements for
additional information regarding the extent of
Toyotaʼs use of derivative fi nancial instruments
to hedge foreign currency exchange rate risks.
into
income attributable
Generally, a weakening of the Japanese yen
against other currencies has a positive eff ect
on Toyotaʼs revenues, operating income and
to Toyota Motor
net
Corporation. A strengthening of the Japanese
yen against other currencies has the opposite
eff ect. In fi scal 2009 and 2010, the Japanese yen
was on average and at the end of the fi scal year
stronger against the U.S. dollar and the euro in
comparison to the prior fi scal year. See further
discussion in the Market Risk Disclosures section
regarding “Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk”.
During fi scal 2009 and 2010, the average
exchange rate of the Japanese yen strengthened
against the major currencies
including the
U.S. dollar and the euro compared to the
average exchange rate of the prior fi scal year.
The operating results excluding the impact of
currency fl uctuations described in the “Results of
Operations ̶ Fiscal 2010 Compared with Fiscal
2009” and the “Results of Operations ̶ Fiscal
2009 Compared with Fiscal 2008,” show results of
net revenues obtained by applying the Japanese
yenʼs average exchange rate in the previous
fi scal year to the local currency-denominated net
revenues for fi scal 2009 and 2010, respectively, as
if the value of the Japanese yen had remained
constant for the comparable periods. Results
excluding the impact of currency fl uctuations
year-on-year are not on the same basis as
Toyotaʼs consolidated fi nancial statements and
do not conform with U.S. GAAP. Furthermore,
Toyota does not believe that these measures are
a substitute for U.S. GAAP measures. However,
Toyota believes that such results excluding the
impact of currency fl uctuations year-on-year
provide additional useful information to investors
regarding the operating performance on a local
currency basis.

Net Revenues
Toyota had net revenues for fi scal 2010 of ¥18,950.9 billion, a decrease
of ¥1,578.6 billion, or 7.7%, compared with the prior year. This decrease
principally refl ects the unfavorable impact of fl uctuations in foreign currency
translation rates of ¥986.9 billion, the impact of decreased vehicle unit sales
and changes in sales mix of approximately ¥570.0 billion, partially off set
by the increased parts sales of ¥34.9 billion during fi scal 2010. Eliminating
the diff erence in the Japanese yen value used for translation purposes,
net revenues would have been approximately ¥19,937.8 billion during
fi scal 2010, a 2.9% decrease compared with the prior year. The automotive
market expanded by 10.0% in Japan compared to the prior fi scal year
due to the government stimulus packages. However, other automotive

Toyotaʼs net revenues include net revenues
from sales of products, consisting of net
revenues from automotive operations and all
other operations, that decreased by 7.6% during
fi scal 2010 compared with the prior fi scal year
to ¥17,724.7 billion, and net revenues from
fi nancial services operations that decreased by
9.6% during fi scal 2010 compared with the prior
fi scal year to ¥1,226.2 billion. Eliminating the
diff erence in the Japanese yen value used for
translation purposes, net revenues from sales
of products would have been ¥18,618.7 billion,
a 2.9% decrease during fi scal 2010 compared
with the prior fi scal year. The decrease in net
revenues from sales of products is due primarily
to a decrease in vehicle unit sales which resulted
from the generally diffi cult market conditions
in the automotive industry as a whole in fi scal
2010. Eliminating the diff erence in the Japanese
yen value used for translation purposes, net
from fi nancial services operations
revenues
would have been approximately ¥1,319.1 billion,
a 2.7% decrease during fi scal 2010 compared
with the prior fi scal year. The decrease in net
revenues
from fi nancial services operations
resulted primarily from unfavorable impact of
fl uctuations in foreign currency translation rates
and decrease in rental income from vehicles and

The market is recovering gradually from the downturn stemming from the fi nancial crisis since the fall
of 2008 and Toyotaʼs vehicle unit sales in the second half of fi scal 2010 increased year-on-year primarily
due to the sales of new Sienna. However, net revenues in North America decreased primarily as a result of
the substantial decline in vehicle unit sales caused by the downturn in the market during the fi rst half of

measures.

Operating costs and expenses decreased by
¥2,187.1 billion, or 10.4%, to ¥18,803.4 billion
during fi scal 2010 compared with the prior fi scal
year. This decrease resulted primarily from the
¥963.3 billion impact of fl uctuations in foreign
currency translation rates, the ¥946.3 billion of
cost reduction eff orts, decrease in fi xed costs
and other eff orts, the ¥178.7 billion decrease in
research and development expenses, and the
approximate ¥110.0 billion impact on costs of
products attributable to the decrease in vehicle
unit sales and the changes in sales mix, partially
off set by the ¥11.2 billion impact on increase in
parts sales. The cost reduction eff orts, decrease
in fi xed costs and other eff orts are partially
off set by the ¥105.7 billion increase in costs
resulting from a change in the estimation model
of expenses related to future recalls and other
safety measures.
(cid:12255)Cost Reduction Eff orts
During fi scal 2010, continued cost reduction
eff orts reduced operating costs and expenses by
approximately ¥520.0 billion. The cost reduction
eff orts include decreases in the prices of steel,
precious metals, non-ferrous alloys including
aluminum, plastic parts and other production
materials and parts. In fi scal 2010, the decline
in raw materials prices and, continued cost
reduction eff orts, by working closely with
suppliers, contributed to the improvement in
earnings. These cost reduction eff orts related to
ongoing value engineering and value analysis
activities, the use of common parts that result in a
reduction of part types and other manufacturing
initiatives designed to reduce the costs of vehicle
production.

(cid:12255)Cost of Products Sold
Cost of products sold decreased by ¥1,496.9
billion, or 8.6%, to ¥15,971.5 billion during fi scal
2010 compared with the prior fi scal year. The
decrease in cost of products sold for automotive
operations is primarily attributed to the decrease
in fi xed costs including the decrease in research
and development expenses, the cost reduction
eff orts, the decrease in vehicle unit sales and
the changes in sales mix, and the impact of
fluctuations
foreign currency translation
rates partially off set by increases in parts sales.
The decrease in fixed costs was due mainly
to a decline in labor costs and research and
development expenses as a result of profit
in
improvement
vehicle unit sales and the changes in sales
mix were due to factors such as the substantial
contraction of the automotive market caused
by the financial crisis since the fall of 2008.
The decrease in research and development
expenses is attributable to reduced develop-
ment costs real-
ized as a result of
Toyotaʼs more fo-
cused investment
decisions for the
future such as in

Toyotaʼs operating income increased by ¥608.5
billion to an operating income of ¥147.5 billion
during fi scal 2010 compared with the prior year.
This operating income was favorably impacted
by the eff ects of a ¥799.7 billion cost reduction
eff orts, decrease in fi xed costs and other eff orts,
the ¥178.7 billion decrease in research and
development expenses, and the ¥23.7 billion

Other Income and Expenses
Interest and dividend income decreased by ¥60.2
billion, or 43.5%, to ¥78.2 billion during fi scal
2010 compared with the prior fi scal year mainly
due to a decrease in interest income refl ecting
decreases in market interest rates.
Interest expense decreased by ¥13.5 billion,
or 28.7%, to ¥33.4 billion during fi scal 2010
compared with the prior fi scal year.
Foreign exchange gains, net increased by ¥70.0
billion to ¥68.2 billion during fi scal 2010 compared
with the prior fi scal year. Foreign exchange gains
and losses include the diff erences between the
value of foreign currency denominated sales
translated at prevailing exchange rates and
the value of the sales amounts settled during
the year, including those settled using forward
foreign currency exchange contracts.
Other income, net increased by ¥220.0 billion
to ¥30.9 billion during fi scal 2010 compared with
the prior fi scal year. This increase was mainly
due to the recognition of impairment losses on
available-for sale securities in the prior fi scal year.
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes increased by
¥149.1 billion to ¥92.6 billion during fi scal 2010
compared with the prior year primarily due to
the increase in income before income taxes. The
eff ective tax rate was 31.8%, which was lower
than the statutory tax rate in Japan. This was
primarily due to the increase in income before
income taxes of overseas subsidiaries whose
statutory tax rates were lower than the statutory
tax rate in Japan.

Net income attributable to the noncontrolling

(cid:12255)Automotive Operations Segment
The automotive operations segment is Toyotaʼs
largest operating segment by net revenues. Net
revenues for the automotive segment decreased
during fi scal 2010 by ¥1,367.3 billion, or 7.4%,
compared with the prior year to ¥17,197.4 billion.
The decrease was primarily due to fl uctuations
in foreign currency translation rates of ¥886.5
billion and decreased vehicle unit sales and the
changes in sales mix of approximately ¥570.0
billion, partially off set by increased parts sales of
¥34.9 billion.
Operating loss from the automotive operations
decreased by ¥308.5 billion during fi scal 2010
compared with the prior year to an operating
loss of ¥86.3 billion. This decrease in operating
loss was primarily due to cost reduction eff orts,
decrease in fi xed costs of ¥990.0 billion, and
increase in parts sales, partially off set by a ¥380.0
billion decrease in vehicle unit sales and changes
in sales mix.
The decrease
in vehicle unit sales and
changes in sales mix was due primarily to a
decrease in vehicle unit sales which resulted
from the generally diffi cult market conditions
in the automotive industry during fi scal 2010.
The decrease in fi xed costs was due mainly
to the decline in labor costs and research and
development expenses as a result of profi t
improvement initiatives, partially off set by ¥105.7
billion increase in costs resulting from a change
in the estimation model of expenses related to
future recalls and other safety measures.
(cid:12255)Financial Services Operations Segment
Net revenues for the fi nancial services operations
decreased during fi scal 2010 by ¥132.1 billion,
or 9.6%, compared to the prior year to ¥1,245.4
billion. This decrease was primarily due to the
unfavorable impact of fl uctuations in foreign
currency translation
rates of ¥93.3 billion.
Eliminating the diff erence in the Japanese yen
value used for translation purposes, net revenues
for its fi nancial services operations would have
been approximately ¥1,338.7 billion during
fi scal 2010, a 2.8% decrease compared with the
prior fi scal year. The decrease in net revenues
eliminating the diff erence in the Japanese yen
value used for translation purposes resulted
primarily from a decrease in rental income from
vehicles and equipment on operating leases.
income
Operating
from fi nancial services
operations increased by ¥318.9 billion to ¥246.9
billion during fi scal 2010 compared with the
prior year. This increase was primarily due to the
¥140.0 billion decrease in provision for credit
losses, net charge-off s, the ¥64.5 billion of the
recognition of valuation gains on interest rate
swaps stated at fair value, and the ¥50.0 billion
decrease in provision for residual value losses.
The decrease in provision for credit losses,
net charge-off s is primarily attributable to the
increase in provision for credit losses and net
charge-off s in the United States primarily due to
the rise in the ratio of credit losses as a result of
the economic downturn in the prior fi scal year,
partially off set by the impact from the recalls and
other safety measures. The decrease in provision
for residual value losses is primarily attributable to
the recovery in the used vehicle market, partially
off set by the impact from the recalls and other
safety measures.

Net Revenues
Toyota had net revenues for fi scal 2009 of
¥20,529.5 billion, a decrease of ¥5,759.7 billion,
or 21.9%, compared with the prior year. This
impact of
decrease principally refl ects the
decreased vehicle unit sales and changes in sales
mix of ¥3,400.0 billion, the unfavorable impact of
fl uctuations in foreign currency translation rates
of ¥2,031.2 billion, and decreased parts sales of
¥128.6 billion during fi scal 2009. Eliminating the
diff erence in the Japanese yen value used for
translation purposes, net revenues would have
been approximately ¥22,560.7 billion during
fi scal 2009, a 14.2% decrease compared with the
prior fi scal year. As a result of the downturn in
the global economy stemming from the fi nancial
crisis since the fall of 2008, the automotive
market contracted by 15.6% in Japan compared
to the prior fi scal year, and by 15.8% in North
America and 8.2% in Europe compared to the

prior calendar year, respectively. Aff ected by this
downturn, Toyotaʼs vehicle unit sales decreased
to 7,567 thousand vehicles, or by 15.1%,
compared to the prior fi scal year. The decrease in
net revenues was also due to the eff ect of foreign
currency exchange rate fl uctuations and changes
in the market demand resulting from a shift in
consumer preference towards small vehicles and
low-price vehicles.

Geographically, net
(before the
elimination of intersegment revenues) for fi scal
2009 decreased by 20.4% in Japan, 34.0% in
North America, 24.5% in Europe, 12.9% in Asia
and 17.9% in Other compared with the prior fi scal
year. Eliminating the diff erence in the Japanese
yen value used for translation purposes, net
revenues in fi scal 2009 would have decreased by
20.4% in Japan, 25.0% in North America, 14.1% in
Europe, 1.1% in Other and 0.5% in Asia compared
with the prior fi scal year.
The following is a discussion of net revenues in
each geographic market (before the elimination
of intersegment revenues).
Toyotaʼs net revenues include net revenues from
sales of products, consisting of net revenues
from automotive operations and all other
operations, which decreased by 22.8% during
fi scal 2009 compared with the prior fi scal year
to ¥19,173.7 billion, and net revenues from
fi nancial services operations, which decreased
by 7.7% during fi scal 2009 compared with the
prior fi scal year to ¥1,355.8 billion. Eliminating
the diff erence in the Japanese yen value used
for translation purposes, net revenues from sales
of products would have been approximately
¥21,011.3 billion, a 15.3% decrease during fi scal
2009 compared with the prior fi scal year. The
decrease in net revenues from sales of products is
primarily attributable to a substantial contraction
of the automotive market caused by a rapid
deterioration of the world economy following
the fi nancial crisis since the fall of 2008, as well as
changes in market demand resulting from a shift
in consumer preference towards small vehicles
and low-price vehicles. Eliminating the diff erence
in the Japanese yen value used for translation
purposes, net revenues from fi nancial services
operations would have been approximately
¥1,549.4 billion, a 5.5% increase during fi scal 2009
compared with the prior year. The increase in net
revenues from fi nancial services operations is
primarily attributable to the increase in volume
of fi nancings as a result of an increase in market
share primarily of the fi nance subsidiary in North
America.

Although Toyota enjoyed strong sales of new car models such as the Alphard and the Vellfi re amid the
downturn in the real economy and increased domestic competition, net revenues in Japan decreased
primarily due to lower vehicle unit sales compared to the prior fi scal year as a result of diffi cult market
conditions. Net revenues in Japan decreased also due to shift in consumer preference towards compact
and subcompact cars infl uenced by decreased consumer spending and heightened environmental
awareness.

Net revenues in North America decreased primarily due to the substantial decrease in vehicle unit sales
as a result of the downturn in the market stemming from the fi nancial crisis since the fall of 2008. In
particular, the decline in vehicle unit sales is attributable to the decline in vehicle unit sales of commercial
vehicles as a result of the surge in prices of crude oil in the fi rst half of fi scal 2009, a shift in consumer
preference towards small vehicles and fuel-effi cient vehicles, and a rapid decline in vehicle unit sales of
passenger vehicles as a result of the fi nancial crisis in the second half of fi scal 2009. Although net revenues
from fi nancing operations decreased, net revenues from fi nancing operations increased by ¥54.3 billion
excluding the ¥141.1 billion impact of fl uctuation in foreign currency exchange rate, which is attributable
to the increase in the volume of fi nancings as a result of an increase in market share primarily of the
fi nance subsidiary in North America.

translation rates, the impact of the decrease
in parts sales, and the decrease in research
and development expenses, partially off set by
increases in expenses. The impact of decrease
in vehicle unit sales and the changes in sales
mix refl ected such factors as the substantial
contraction of the automotive market caused
by a rapid deterioration of the world economy
following the fi nancial crisis since the fall of
2008, as well as changes in the market structure
resulting from a shift in consumer preference
towards small vehicles and low-price vehicles.
The decrease in research and development
expenses is attributable to reduced development
costs realized as a result of eff orts to improve
earnings by improving development effi ciency.
This decrease in research and development
expenses was achieved while maintaining a
focus on the development of environmentally
conscious technologies including hybrid and
fuel-cell technology, and the developments in
advanced technologies relating to collision
safety and vehicle stability controls to further
build up competitive strength in the future. The
is attributable to the
increase
ineffi ciency from decreased operational activity,
increase in inventory reserve for the lower of cost
or market, and the incurrence of product-quality
related expenses in the fi rst half of fi scal 2009.
in expenses
Operating costs and expenses decreased by
¥3,028.3 billion, or 12.6%, to ¥20,990.5 billion
during fi scal 2009 compared with the prior fi scal
year. This decrease resulted primarily from the
approximate ¥2,100 billion impact on costs of
products attributable to the decrease in vehicle
unit sales and the changes in sales mix, the
¥2,062.1 billion impact of fl uctuations in foreign
currency translation rates, ¥64.4 billion decreased
costs corresponding to the decrease in parts
sales, and the ¥54.8 billion decrease in research
and development expenses, partially off set by
the ¥1,253.0 billion increase in cost reduction,
expenses and other eff ects.
(cid:12255) Cost Reduction Eff orts
Cost reduction eff orts were off set by increases in
the prices of steel, precious metals, non-ferrous
alloys including aluminum, plastic parts and
other production materials and parts. Although
the prices of raw materials such as steel remained
high through fi scal 2009 as a result of market
conditions, cost reduction eff orts, by working
closely with suppliers, absorbed the impact of
the market price increase. These cost reduction
eff orts related to ongoing value engineering and
value analysis activities, the use of common parts
that result in a reduction of part types and other
manufacturing initiatives designed to reduce the
costs of vehicle production.
(cid:12255)Cost of Products Sold
Cost of products sold decreased by ¥2,984.0
billion, or 14.6%, to ¥17,468.4 billion during fi scal
2009 compared with the prior fi scal year. The
decrease in cost of products sold for automotive
operations is primarily attributed to the decrease
in vehicle unit sales and the changes in sales mix,

resulted primarily from the ¥206.4 billion impact
of fl uctuations
in foreign currency translation
rates, partially off set by the ¥70.0 billion increase
in provision for residual value losses and the ¥12.2
billion increase in valuation losses on interest rate
swaps stated at fair value. The increase in provision
for residual value losses is primarily attributable to
the increase in provision for residual value losses
of operating lease vehicles resulting from the
decrease in the prices of used vehicles, particularly
of large vehicles with low fuel economy due to
the economic downturn. The increase in valuation
losses on interest rate swaps stated at fair value is
attributable to the valuation losses on fl oating to

the ¥119.4 billion increase for the fi nancial
services operations, partially off set by the ¥95.2

attributable to reduced marketing costs realized
as a result of eff orts to improve earnings. The
increase in the fi nancial services operations is
primarily due to the ¥170.0 billion increase in

income
Operating
from fi nancial services
operations decreased by ¥158.5 billion to an
operating loss of ¥72.0 billion during fi scal 2009
compared with the prior fi scal year. This decrease
was primarily due to the ¥170.0 billion increase
in provision for credit losses, net charge-off s and
the ¥70.0 billion increase in provision for residual
value losses, and the ¥12.2 billion increase in
valuation losses on interest rate swaps stated at
fair value in sales fi nance subsidiaries primarily in
the United States.
The increase in provision for credit losses,
net charge-off s is primarily attributable to the
increase in provision for credit losses and net
charge-off s in the United States due to the rise
in the ratio of credit losses as a result of the
economic downturn.
The increase in provision for residual value
losses is primarily attributable to the decrease in
the prices of used vehicles, particularly of large
vehicles with low fuel economy, as a result of the
economic downturn. The increase in valuation
losses on interest rate swaps stated at fair value is
attributable to the valuation losses on fl oating to
fi xed interest rate swaps that are not designated
as hedges due to the decline in market interest
rates.
was primarily due to the decrease in vehicle unit
sales and changes in sales mix of ¥1,300.0 billion,
the increase in expenses of ¥491.3 billion, and
the decrease in parts sales, partially off set by the
decrease in research and development expenses.
The decrease in vehicle unit sales and changes
in sales mix refl ected such factors as a substantial
contraction of the automotive market caused
by a rapid deterioration of the world economy
following the fi nancial crisis since the fall of
2008, as well as changes in the market structure
resulting from a shift in consumer preference
towards small vehicles and low-price vehicles.
The increase in expenses is attributable to the
ineffi ciency from decreased operational activity,
increase in inventory reserve for the lower of cost
or market, and the incurrence of product-quality
related expenses in the fi rst half of fi scal 2009.
(cid:12255)Financial Services Operations Segment
Net revenues for the fi nancial services operations
decreased during fi scal 2009 by ¥120.8 billion,
or 8.1%, compared to the prior fi scal year to
¥1,377.5 billion. This decrease was primarily
due to the unfavorable impact of fl uctuations
in foreign currency translation rates of ¥195.0
billion, which was partially off set by a higher
volume of fi nancing of ¥95.0 billion. Eliminating
the diff erence in the Japanese yen value used
for translation purposes, net revenues for its
fi nancial services operations would have been
approximately ¥1,572.5 billion during fi scal 2009,
a 5.0% increase compared with the prior fi scal
year. The increase in net revenues from fi nancial
services operations, eliminating the diff erence
in the Japanese yen value used for translation
purposes, is primarily attributable to the increase

Outlook
While Toyota expects that an economic recovery
trend in China will prevail across the Asian
markets and developed countries will see a
gradual economic recovery in fi scal 2011, Toyota
also believes there is a risk of a downturn in the
world economy during fi scal 2011 resulting
from credit contraction in fi nancial markets,
unemployment, increases in raw material prices,
and other factors.
to
Toyota expects the automotive market to

the medium-
expand over

resource-rich and emerging
in
countries. Currently, the global competition in
the automotive market has intensifi ed, as shown
in the fi erce competition in the small and low-
price vehicles markets, and the advancement of
introduction of new
new technologies and
products in response to growing environmental
awareness. For purposes of
this outlook
is assuming an average
discussion, Toyota
exchange rate of ¥90 to the U.S. dollar and ¥125
to the euro. With the foregoing external factors
in mind, Toyota expects that net revenues for
fi scal 2011 will increase compared with fi scal
2010 as a result of an increase in vehicle unit
sales. With respect to operating income, factors
increasing operating
include cost
reduction eff orts, a decrease in depreciation and
other eff orts to decrease expenses. Toyota does
not expect a signifi cant increase in expenses
related to recalls and other safety measures,
compared with fi scal 2010. On the other hand,
factors decreasing operating income include the
assumed exchange rate of a stronger Japanese
yen against the U.S. dollar in fi scal 2011 compared
to the prior fi scal year as well as increases in
income
selling expenses and
incentives caused by
strengthened sales promotion activities; which
off set the factors increasing operating income.
As a result, Toyota expects that operating income
will increase in fi scal 2011 compared with fi scal
2010. Also, Toyota expects income before income

for further discussion.
The foregoing statements are forward-looking
statements based upon Toyotaʼs managementʼs
assumptions and beliefs regarding exchange
rates, market demand for Toyotaʼs products,
economic conditions and others. Please see
“Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-
Looking Statements”. Toyotaʼs actual results of
operations could vary signifi cantly from those
described above as a result of unanticipated
changes
in the factors described above or
other factors, including those described in “Risk
Factors”.
Liquidity and capital resources
funded
Historically, Toyota has
its capital
expenditures and research and development
activities primarily through cash generated by
operations. In fi scal 2010, as in the prior fi scal year,
Toyota funded cash partially through additional
loans and issuance of notes, considering the
future business climate as well as to ensure a
sound fi nancial base.
In fi scal 2011, Toyota expects to suffi ciently
fund
its capital expenditures and research
and development activities primarily through
cash and cash equivalents on hand, and cash
generated by operations. Toyota will use its
funds for the development of environment
technologies, maintenance and replacement of
manufacturing facilities, and the introduction
of new products. See “Information on the
Company ̶ Business Overview ̶ Capital
Expenditures and Divestitures” for information
regarding Toyotaʼs material capital expenditures
and divestitures for fi scal 2008, 2009 and 2010,

Net cash provided by operating activities
was ¥2,558.5 billion for fi scal 2010, compared
with ¥1,476.9 billion for the prior fi scal year.
The increase in net cash provided by operating
activities resulted primarily from a decrease
in cash payment to suppliers attributable to
the decrease in cost of products sold in the
automotive operations, and cash payments for
income taxes, partially off set by a decrease in cash
collection received from sale of products due to
a decrease in net revenue for the automotive
operations.
Net cash used in investing activities was ¥2,850.1
billion for fi scal 2010, compared with ¥1,230.2
billion for the prior fi scal year. The increase in net
cash used in investing activities resulted primarily
from an increase in purchases of marketable
securities and security investments.
Net cash provided or used by fi nancing
activities was a ¥277.9 billion decrease for fi scal
2010, compared with ¥698.8 billion increase for
the prior fi scal year. The decrease in net cash
provided by fi nancing activities resulted primarily
from a decrease of short-term borrowings,
partially off set by a decrease in dividends paid.
Total capital expenditures
for property,
plant and equipment, excluding vehicles and
equipment on operating leases, were ¥604.5
billion during fi scal 2010, a decrease of 55.7% over
the ¥1,364.5 billion in total capital expenditures
during the prior fi scal year. The decrease in capital
expenditures resulted primarily from a decrease
of investments in Japan and North America.
Total expenditures for vehicles and equipment
on operating leases were ¥833.0 billion during
fi scal 2010, a decrease of 13.3% over the ¥960.3
billion in expenditures from the prior fi scal year.

Based on current available information, Toyota
does not expect environmental matters to have
a material impact on its fi nancial position, results
of operations, liquidity or cash fl ows during fi scal
2011. However, there exists uncertainty with
respect to Toyotaʼs obligations under current
and future environment regulations as described
in “Information on the Company ̶ Business

Cash and cash equivalents were ¥1,865.7 billion

Credit Facilities with Credit Card Holders
Toyotaʼs fi nancial services operation issues credit
cards to customers. As customary for credit card
businesses, Toyota maintains credit facilities
with holders of credit cards issued by Toyota.
These facilities are used upon each holderʼs
requests up to the limits established on an
individual holderʼs basis. Although loans made to
customers through this facility are not secured,
for the purposes of minimizing credit risks and of
appropriately establishing credit limits for each
individual credit card holder, Toyota employs
its own risk management policy which includes
an analysis of information provided by fi nancial
institutions
in alliance with Toyota. Toyota
periodically reviews and revises, as appropriate,
these credit limits. Outstanding credit facilities
with credit card holders were ¥130.3 billion as of
March 31, 2010.
Credit Facilities with Dealers
Toyotaʼs fi nancial services operation maintains
credit facilities with dealers. These credit facilities
may be used for business acquisitions, facilities
refurbishment,
real estate purchases, and
working capital requirements. These loans are
typically collateralized with liens on real estate,
vehicle
inventory, and/or other dealership
assets, as appropriate. Toyota obtains a personal

loans are typically
prudent. Although the
collateralized or guaranteed, the value of the
underlying collateral or guarantees may not be
suffi cient to cover Toyotaʼs exposure under such
agreements. Toyota prices the credit facilities
according to the risks assumed in entering into
the credit facility. Toyotaʼs fi nancial services
operation also provides fi nancing to various
multi-franchise dealer organizations, referred
to as dealer groups, often as part of a lending
consortium, for wholesale inventory fi nancing,
business acquisitions, facilities refurbishment,
real estate purchases, and working capital
requirements. Toyotaʼs outstanding
credit
facilities with dealers totaled ¥1,586.8 billion as
of March 31, 2010.

Guarantees
Toyota enters into certain guarantee contracts
with
to guarantee customersʼ
payments of their installment payables that arise
from installment contracts between customers
and Toyota dealers, as and when requested by
Toyota dealers. Guarantee periods are set to
match the maturity of installment payments, and
as of March 31, 2010, ranged from one month
to 35 years. However, they are generally shorter
than the useful lives of products sold. Toyota
is required to execute its guarantee primarily
when customers are unable to make required
payments.

for fi scal year beginning after November 15,
2009, and for interim period within the fi scal
year. Management is evaluating the impact of
adopting this guidance on Toyotaʼs consolidated
fi nancial statements.
Critical accounting estimates
The consolidated fi nancial statements of Toyota
are prepared in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. The preparation of these fi nancial
statements
requires the use of estimates,
judgments and assumptions that aff ect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the fi nancial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the
periods presented. Toyota believes that of its
signifi cant accounting policies, the following
may involve a higher degree of judgments,
estimates and assumptions:
Product Warranty
Toyota generally warrants its products against
certain manufacturing and other defects.
Product warranties are provided for specifi c
periods of time and/or usage of the product and
vary depending upon the nature of the product,
the geographic location of the sale and other
factors. All product warranties are consistent
with commercial practices. Toyota includes a
provision for estimated product warranty costs
as a component of cost of sales at the time the
related sale is recognized. The accrued warranty
costs represent managementʼs best estimate
at the time of sale of the total costs that Toyota
will incur to repair or replace product parts that
fail while still under warranty. The amount of
accrued estimated warranty costs is primarily
based on historical experience of product
failures as well as current information on repair
costs. The amount of warranty costs accrued
also contains an estimate of warranty claim
recoveries to be received from suppliers. The
foregoing evaluations are inherently uncertain,
as they require material estimates and some
productsʼ warranties extend for several years.
Consequently, actual warranty costs may diff er
from the estimated amounts and could require
additional warranty provisions. If these factors
require a signifi cant increase in Toyotaʼs accrued
estimated warranty costs, it would negatively
aff ect future operating results of the automotive
operations.
Toyota accrues for costs of recalls and other
safety measures based on managementʼs
estimates when it is probable a liability has
been incurred and the amount of loss can be
reasonably estimated. Prior to the fourth quarter
of this fi scal year, amounts were accrued based
on individual occurrences of recalls and other
safety measures. During the fourth quarter of this
consolidated fi scal year, as a result of signifi cant
changes in facts and circumstances, Toyota has
employed an estimation model, to accrue at the
time of vehicle sale, an amount that represents
managementʼs best estimate of expenses related
to future recalls and other safety measures. The
estimation model for recalls and other safety
measures takes into account Toyotaʼs historical
experience and individual occurrences of recalls
and other safety measures. This change resulted
from Toyotaʼs most recent experience with
recalls and other safety measures, changes in the
operating processes such as the establishment
of the Special Committee for Global Quality to
address quality-related matters, as well as the
broadening of the number of vehicles subject to
recalls and other safety measures. Consequently,
actual costs of recalls and other safety measures
may diff er from the estimated amounts.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
and Credit Losses
(cid:12255)Natures of estimates and assumptions
Sales fi nancing and fi nance lease receivables
consist of retail
installment sales contracts
secured by passenger cars and commercial
vehicles. Collectability risks include consumer
and dealer insolvencies and insuffi cient collateral
values (less costs to sell) to realize the full
carrying values of these receivables. As a matter
of policy, Toyota maintains an allowance for
doubtful accounts and credit losses representing
managementʼs estimate of the amount of asset
impairment in the portfolios of fi nance, trade
and other receivables. Toyota determines the
allowance for doubtful accounts and credit
losses based on a systematic, ongoing review
and evaluation performed as part of the credit-
risk evaluation process, historical loss experience,
the size and composition of the portfolios,
current economic events and conditions, the
estimated fair value, adequacy of collateral
and other pertinent factors. This evaluation is
inherently
judgmental and requires material
estimates, including the amounts and timing
of future cash fl ows expected to be received,
which may be susceptible to signifi cant change.
Although management considers the allowance
for doubtful accounts and credit
losses to
be adequate based on information currently
available, additional provisions may be necessary
due to (i) changes in management estimates
and assumptions about asset impairments, (ii)
information that indicates changes in expected
future cash fl ows, or (iii) changes in economic
and other events and conditions. To the extent
that sales incentives remain an integral part of
sales promotion with the eff ect of reducing new
vehicle prices, resale prices of used vehicles and,
correspondingly, the collateral value of Toyotaʼs
sales fi nancing and fi nance lease receivables
could experience further downward pressure.
If these factors require a signifi cant increase
in Toyotaʼs allowance for doubtful accounts
and credit losses, it could negatively aff ect
future operating results of the fi nancial services
operations. The level of credit losses, which has a
greater impact on Toyotaʼs results of operations,
is infl uenced primarily by two factors: frequency
of occurrence and severity of loss. For evaluation
purposes, exposures to credit loss are segmented
into the two primary categories of “consumer”
and “dealer”. Toyotaʼs consumer portfolio consists
of smaller balances that are homogenous retail
fi nance receivables and lease earning assets.
The dealer portfolio consists of wholesale and
other dealer fi nancing receivables. The overall

estimates for determining the allowance for

Investment in Operating Leases
(cid:12255)Natures of estimates and assumptions
Vehicles on operating leases, where Toyota is the
lessor, are valued at cost and depreciated over
their estimated useful lives using the straight-
line method to their estimated residual values.
Toyota utilizes industry published information
and its own historical experience to determine
estimated residual values for these vehicles.
Toyota evaluates the recoverability of the
leased vehicles for
carrying values of
its
impairment when there are
indications of
declines in residual values, and if impaired,
Toyota recognizes an allowance for its residual
values. In addition, to the extent that sales
integral part of sales
incentives remain an
promotion with the eff ect of reducing new
vehicle prices, resale prices of used vehicles
and, correspondingly, the fair value of Toyotaʼs
leased vehicles could be subject to downward
pressure. If resale prices of used vehicles decline,
future operating results of the fi nancial services
operations are likely to be adversely aff ected
by incremental charges to reduce estimated
residual values. Throughout the life of the lease,
management performs periodic evaluations
of estimated end-of-term market values to
in the
determine whether estimates used
determination of the contractual residual value
are still considered reasonable. Factors aff ecting
the estimated residual value at lease maturity
include, but are not limited to, new vehicle
incentive programs, new vehicle pricing, used
vehicle supply, projected vehicle return rates,
and projected loss severity. The vehicle return
rate represents the number of leased vehicles
returned at contract maturity and sold by Toyota
during the period as a percentage of the number
of lease contracts that, as of their origination
dates, were scheduled to mature in the same
period. A higher rate of vehicle returns exposes
Toyota to higher potential losses incurred at
lease termination. Severity of loss is the extent to
which the end-of-term market value of a lease is
less than its carrying value at lease end.
(cid:12255)Sensitivity analysis
The following table illustrates the eff ect of an
assumed change in the vehicle return rate, which
Toyota believes is one of the critical estimates, in
determining the residual value losses, holding
all other assumptions constant. The following

losses in Toyotaʼs fi nancial services operations

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Toyota periodically reviews the carrying value of
its long-lived assets held and used and assets to
be disposed of, including intangible assets, when
events and circumstances warrant such a review.
This review is performed using estimates of
future cash fl ows. If the carrying value of a long-
lived asset is considered impaired, an impairment
charge is recorded for the amount by which the
carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds
its fair value. Management believes that the
estimates of future cash fl ows and fair values
are reasonable. However, changes in estimates
of such cash fl ows and fair values would aff ect
the evaluations and negatively aff ect future
operating results of the automotive operations.
Pension Costs and Obligations
(cid:12255)Natures of estimates and assumptions
Pension costs and obligations are dependent
on assumptions used
in calculating such
amounts. These assumptions include discount
rates, benefi ts earned, interest costs, expected
rate of return on plan assets, mortality rates
and other factors. Actual results that diff er
from the assumptions are accumulated and
amortized over future periods and, therefore,
generally affect recognized expense in future
periods. While management believes that the
assumptions used are appropriate, diff erences in
actual experience or changes in assumptions may
aff ect Toyotaʼs pension costs and obligations.
The two most critical assumptions impacting
the calculation of pension costs and obligations
are the discount rates and the expected rates
of returns on plan assets. Toyota determines
the discount rates mainly based on the rates of
high quality fi xed income bonds or fi xed income
governmental bonds currently available and
expected to be available during the period to
maturity of the defi ned benefi t pension plans.
Toyota determines the expected rates of return
for pension assets after considering several
applicable factors including, the composition
of plan assets held, assumed risks of asset
management, historical results of the returns on
plan assets, Toyotaʼs principal policy for plan asset
management, and forecasted market conditions.
A weighted-average discount rate of 2.8% and
a weighted-average expected rate of return on
plan assets of 3.6% are the results of assumptions
used for the various pension plans in calculating
Toyotaʼs consolidated pension costs for fi scal
2010. Also, a weighted-average discount rate
of 2.8% is the result of assumption used for the
various pension plans in calculating Toyotaʼs
consolidated pension obligations for fi scal 2010.

Derivatives and Other Contracts at Fair Value
Toyota uses derivatives in the normal course
of business to manage its exposure to foreign
currency exchange rates and interest rates. The
accounting is complex and continues to evolve.
In addition, there are signifi cant judgments
and estimates involved in the estimating of fair
value in the absence of quoted market values.
These estimates are based upon valuation
methodologies deemed appropriate under the
circumstances. However, the use of diff erent
assumptions may have a material eff ect on the
estimated fair value amounts.
Marketable Securities and Investments in
Affi liated Companies
Toyotaʼs accounting policy is to record a write-
down of such investments to net realizable value
when a decline in fair value below the carrying
value is other-than-temporary. In determining
if a decline in value is other-than-temporary,
Toyota considers the length of time and the
extent to which the fair value has been less
than the carrying value, the fi nancial condition
and prospects of the company and Toyotaʼs
ability and intent to retain its investment in the
company for a period of time suffi cient to allow
for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
Deferred Tax Assets
Toyota estimates whether future taxable income
is suffi cient at a particular tax-paying component
and records valuation allowances to reduce
deferred tax assets when it is more likely than
not that a tax benefi t will not be realized in the
future periods. Actual taxable income may diff er
from the estimated amounts due to various
assumptions used to estimate future taxable
income.

Market risk disclosures
Toyota is exposed to market risk from changes
in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates,
certain commodity and equity security prices. In
order to manage the risk arising from changes
in foreign currency exchange rates and interest
rates, Toyota enters into a variety of derivative
fi nancial instruments.
A description of Toyotaʼs accounting policies
for derivative instruments is included in note 2
to the consolidated fi nancial statements and
further disclosure is provided in notes 20 and 21
to the consolidated fi nancial statements.
Toyota monitors and manages these fi nancial

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Toyota has foreign currency exposures related to
buying, selling and fi nancing in currencies other
than the local currencies in which it operates.
Toyota is exposed to foreign currency risk related
to future earnings or assets and liabilities that are
exposed due to operating cash fl ows and various
fi nancial instruments that are denominated in
foreign currencies. Toyotaʼs most signifi cant
foreign currency exposures relate to the U.S.
dollar and the euro.
Toyota uses a value-at-risk analysis (“VAR”)
to evaluate its exposure to changes in foreign
currency exchange rates. The VAR of the
combined foreign exchange position represents
a potential loss in pre-tax earnings that was
estimated to be ¥114.1 billion as of March 31,
2009 and ¥148.9 billion as of March 31, 2010.
Based on Toyotaʼs overall currency exposure
(including derivative positions), the risk during
the year ended March 31, 2010 to pre-tax cash
fl ow from currency movements was on average
¥135.5 billion, with a high of ¥148.9 billion and a
low of ¥123.8 billion.

Equity Price Risk
Toyota holds investments in various available-
for-sale equity securities that are subject to price
risk. The fair value of available-for-sale equity
securities was ¥798.2 billion as of March 31,
2009 and ¥852.7 billion as of March 31, 2010.
The potential change in the fair value of these
investments, assuming a 10% change in prices,

The potential decrease in fair value resulting
from a hypothetical 100 basis point upward shift
in interest rates would be approximately ¥55.8
billion as of March 31, 2009 and ¥ 67.8 billion as
of March 31, 2010.
There are certain shortcomings
inherent
to the sensitivity analyses presented. The
model assumes that
interest rate changes
are instantaneous parallel shifts in the yield
curve. However, in reality, changes are rarely
instantaneous. Although certain assets and
liabilities may have similar maturities or periods
to repricing, they may not react correspondingly
to changes in market interest rates. Also, the
interest rates on certain types of assets and
liabilities may fl uctuate with changes in market
interest rates, while interest rates on other types
of assets may lag behind changes in market
rates. Finance receivables are less susceptible to
prepayments when interest rates change and,
as a result, Toyotaʼs model does not address
prepayment risk for automotive related fi nance
receivables. However, in the event of a change
in interest rates, actual loan prepayments may
deviate signifi cantly from the assumptions used
in the model.
Commodity Price Risk
Commodity price risk is the possibility of higher
or lower costs due to changes in the prices of
commodities, such as non-ferrous alloys (e.g.,
aluminum), precious metals (e.g., palladium,
platinum and rhodium) and ferrous alloys, which
Toyota uses in the production of motor vehicles.
Toyota does not use derivative instruments
to hedge the price risk associated with the
purchase of those commodities and controls its

Nature of operations:
is primarily engaged
Toyota
in the design,
manufacture, and sale of sedans, minivans,
compact cars, sport-utility vehicles, trucks and
related parts and accessories throughout the
world. In addition, Toyota provides fi nancing,
vehicle and equipment leasing and certain other
fi nancial services primarily to its dealers and their
customers to support the sales of vehicles and
other products manufactured by Toyota.

Summary of signifi cant accounting policies:
The parent company and its subsidiaries in Japan
maintain their records and prepare their fi nancial
statements
in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in Japan, and its
foreign subsidiaries in conformity with those of
their countries of domicile. Certain adjustments
and reclassifi cations have been incorporated
in the accompanying consolidated fi nancial
statements to conform to U.S. GAAP.
Signifi cant accounting policies after refl ecting
adjustments for the above are as follows:

in non-
public companies in which Toyota does not
exercise signifi cant infl uence (generally less than
a 20% ownership interest) are stated at cost. The
accounts of variable interest entities as defi ned
by U.S. GAAP are included in the consolidated
fi nancial statements, if applicable.
Estimates
The preparation of Toyotaʼs consolidated
fi nancial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP
requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that aff ect the amounts reported
in the consolidated fi nancial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could diff er
from those estimates. The more signifi cant
estimates include: product warranties, allowance
for doubtful accounts and credit losses, residual
values for leased assets, impairment of long-lived
assets, pension costs and obligations, fair value
of derivative fi nancial instruments, other-than-
temporary losses on marketable securities and
valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.
Translation of foreign currencies
All asset and
foreign
subsidiaries and affi liates are translated into
Japanese yen at appropriate year-end current
liability accounts of
exchange rates and all income and expense
accounts of those subsidiaries are translated at
the average exchange rates for each period. The
foreign currency translation adjustments are
included as a component of accumulated other
comprehensive income.

Revenue recognition
Revenues from sales of vehicles and parts are
generally recognized upon delivery which is
considered to have occurred when the dealer
has taken title to the product and the risk and
reward of ownership have been substantively
transferred, except as described below.
Toyotaʼs sales incentive programs principally
consist of cash payments to dealers calculated
based on vehicle volume or a model sold by a
dealer during a certain period of time. Toyota
accrues these incentives as revenue reductions
upon the sale of a vehicle corresponding to
the program by the amount determined in the
related incentive program.
Revenues from the sales of vehicles under which
Toyota conditionally guarantees the minimum
resale value are recognized on a pro rata basis
from the date of sale to the fi rst exercise date of
the guarantee in a manner similar to operating
lease accounting. The underlying vehicles of
these transactions are recorded as assets and
are depreciated in accordance with Toyotaʼs
depreciation policy.
Revenues from retail fi nancing contracts and
fi nance leases are recognized using the eff ective
yield method. Revenues from operating leases
are recognized on a straight-line basis over the
lease term.
Other costs
Advertising and sales promotion costs are
expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were
¥484,508 million, ¥389,242 million and ¥304,375
million ($3,271 million) for the years ended March
31, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively.
Toyota generally warrants its products against
certain manufacturing and other defects.
Provisions for product warranties are provided
for specifi c periods of time and/or usage of the
product and vary depending upon the nature of
the product, the geographic location of the sale
and other factors. Toyota records a provision for
estimated product warranty costs at the time the
related sale is recognized based on estimates
that Toyota will incur to repair or replace product
parts that fail while under warranty. The amount
of accrued estimated warranty costs is primarily
based on historical experience as to product
failures as well as current information on repair
costs. The amount of warranty costs accrued also
contains an estimate of warranty claim recoveries
to be received from suppliers.
In addition to product warranties above,
Toyota accrues for costs of recalls and other
safety measures based on managementʼs
estimates when it is probable a liability has
been incurred and the amount of loss can be
reasonably estimated. Prior to the fourth quarter
of this fi scal year, amounts were accrued based
on individual occurrences of recalls and other
safety measures. During the fourth quarter of this
consolidated fi scal year, as a result of signifi cant
changes in facts and circumstances, Toyota has
employed an estimation model, to accrue at the
time of vehicle sale, an amount that represents

managementʼs best estimate of expenses related
to future recalls and other safety measures. The
estimation model for recalls and other safety
measures takes into account Toyotaʼs historical
experience and individual occurrences of recalls
and other safety measures. This change resulted
from Toyotaʼs most recent experience with
recalls and other safety measures changes in the
operating processes such as the establishment
of the Special Committee for Global Quality to
address quality-related matters, as well as the
broadening of the number of vehicles subject to
recalls and other safety measures. This change
has resulted in a decrease in each of operating
income and income before income taxes and
equity in earnings of affi liated companies by
¥105,698 million ($1,136 million) in the fourth
quarter of this consolidated fi scal year.
Research and development costs are expensed

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three
months or less, that are readily convertible to
known amounts of cash and are so near maturity
that they present insignifi cant risk of changes in
value because of changes in interest rates.
Marketable securities

equity securities. Debt and equity securities

comprehensive income in shareholdersʼ equity,
net of applicable taxes. Individual securities
classifi ed as available-for-sale are reduced to
net realizable value for other-than-temporary
declines
if
a decline
is other-than-temporary,
Toyota considers the length of time and the
extent to which the fair value has been less
than the carrying value, the fi nancial condition
and prospects of the company and Toyotaʼs
ability and intent to retain its investment in the
company for a period of time suffi cient to allow
for any anticipated recovery in market value.
Realized gains and losses, which are determined
on the average-cost method, are refl ected in the
statement of income when realized.
Security investments in non-public companies
Security investments in non-public companies
are carried at cost as fair value is not readily
determinable.
If the value of a non-public
security investment is estimated to have declined
and such decline is judged to be other-than-
temporary, Toyota recognizes the impairment of
the investment and the carrying value is reduced
to its fair value. Determination of impairment is
based on the consideration of such factors as
operating results, business plans and estimated
future cash fl ows. Fair value
is determined
principally through the use of the latest fi nancial
information.
Finance receivables
Finance receivables are recorded at the present
value of the related future cash fl ows including
residual values for fi nance leases. Incremental
direct costs incurred in connection with the
acquisition of fi nance receivables are capitalized
and amortized so as to approximate a level rate
of return over the term of the related contracts.
Wholesale and other dealer loan receivables are
placed on nonaccrual status when full payment
of principal or interest is in doubt or principal or
interest is 90 days or more contractually past due,
whichever occurs fi rst. Retail and fi nance lease
receivables are not placed on nonaccrual status.
Rather, these receivables are charged off when
payments due are no longer expected to be
received or the account is 120 days contractually
delinquent, whichever occurs fi rst.
Interest income on nonaccrual receivables is
recognized only to the extent it is received in
cash. Accounts are restored to accrual status
only when principal and
interest payments
are brought current and future payments are
reasonably assured.
Finance receivables on nonaccrual status
were ¥34,586 million and ¥26,599 million ($286
million) and fi nance receivables past due over
90 days and still accruing were ¥43,370 million
and ¥38,150 million ($410 million) as of March 31,
2009 and 2010, respectively.
Allowance for credit losses
Allowance for credit losses is established to
cover probable losses on receivables resulting
from the inability of customers to make required
payments. Provision for credit losses is included
in selling, general and administrative expenses.
The allowance for credit losses is based on a
systematic, ongoing review and evaluation
performed as part of the credit-risk evaluation
process, historical loss experience, the size and
composition of the portfolios, current economic
events and conditions, the estimated fair value
and adequacy of collateral and other pertinent
factors.
In the allowance for credit losses, general
reserves are collectively calculated by applying
reserve rates to each homogenous portfolio. This
reserve rate is based on historical loss experience,
current economic events and conditions and
other pertinent factors. Specifi c reserves on
identifi ed receivables are determined by the
present value of expected future cash fl ows or
the fair value of collateral when it is probable
that such receivables will be unable to be fully
collected.
Losses are charged to the allowance when
it has been determined that payments will not
be received and collateral cannot be recovered
or the related collateral is repossessed and sold.
Any shortfall between proceeds received and the
carrying cost of repossessed collateral is charged
to the allowance. Recoveries are reversed from
the allowance for credit losses.

loss on the
disposition of off -lease vehicles to the extent
that sales proceeds are not suffi cient to cover
the carrying value of the leased asset at lease
termination. Toyota maintains an allowance
to cover probable estimated losses related to
unguaranteed residual values on
its owned
portfolio. The allowance is evaluated considering
projected vehicle return rates and projected loss
severity. Factors considered in the determination
of projected return rates and loss severity include
information on used
historical and market
vehicle sales, trends in lease returns and new
car markets, and general economic conditions.
Management evaluates the foregoing factors,
develops several potential loss scenarios, and
reviews allowance levels to determine whether
reserves are considered adequate to cover the
probable range of losses.

The allowance for residual value losses is
maintained in amounts considered by Toyota
to be appropriate in relation to the estimated
losses on its owned portfolio. Upon disposal
of the assets, the allowance for residual losses
is adjusted for the diff erence between the net
book value and the proceeds from sale.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at cost, not in excess of
market, cost being determined on the “average-
cost” basis, except for the cost of fi nished products
carried by certain subsidiary companies which is
determined on the “specifi c identifi cation” basis
or “last-in, fi rst-out” (“LIFO”) basis. Inventories
valued on the LIFO basis totaled ¥150,110 million
and ¥199,275 million ($2,142 million) at March
31, 2009 and 2010, respectively. Had the “fi rst-in,
fi rst-out” basis been used for those companies
using the LIFO basis, inventories would have
been ¥58,980 million and ¥64,099 million ($689
million) higher than reported at March 31, 2009
and 2010, respectively.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at
cost. Major renewals and improvements are
capitalized; minor replacements, maintenance
and repairs are charged to current operations.
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment
is mainly computed on the declining-balance
method for the parent company and Japanese
subsidiaries and on the straight-line method for
foreign subsidiary companies at rates based on
estimated useful lives of the respective assets
according to general class, type of construction
and use. The estimated useful lives range from 2
to 65 years for buildings and from 2 to 20 years
for machinery and equipment. Vehicles and
equipment on operating leases to third parties
are originated by dealers and acquired by certain
consolidated subsidiaries. Such subsidiaries are
also the lessors of certain property that they
acquire directly.
Vehicles and equipment on operating leases
are depreciated primarily on a straight-line
method over the lease term, generally from
2 to 5 years, to the estimated residual value.
Incremental direct costs incurred in connection
with the acquisition of operating lease contracts
are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line
method over the lease term.

impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
of an asset group may not be recoverable. An
impairment loss would be recognized when the
carrying amount of an asset group exceeds the
estimated undiscounted cash fl ows expected to
result from the use of the asset and its eventual
disposition. The amount of the impairment loss
to be recorded is calculated by the excess of
the carrying value of the asset group over its fair
value. Fair value is determined mainly using a
discounted cash fl ow valuation method.
Goodwill and intangible assets
Goodwill is not material to Toyotaʼs consolidated
balance sheets.
Intangible assets consist mainly of software.
Intangible assets with a defi nite life are amortized
on a straight-line basis with estimated useful
lives mainly of 5 years. Intangible assets with
an indefi nite life are tested for impairment
whenever events or circumstances indicate that
a carrying amount of an asset (asset group) may
not be recoverable. An impairment loss would
be recognized when the carrying amount of
an asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted
cash fl ows used in determining the fair value of
the asset. The amount of the impairment loss
to be recorded is generally determined by the
diff erence between the fair value of the asset
using a discounted cash fl ow valuation method
and the current book value.
Employee benefi t obligations
Toyota has both defi ned benefi t and defi ned
contribution plans for employeesʼ retirement
benefi ts. Retirement benefi t obligations are
measured by actuarial calculations in accordance
with U.S. GAAP. The overfunded or underfunded
status of the defi ned benefi t postretirement
plans is recognized on the consolidated balance
sheets as prepaid pension and severance costs
or accrued pension and severance costs, and the
funded status change is recognized in the year
in which it occurs through other comprehensive
income.
Environmental matters
Environmental expenditures relating to current
operations are expensed or capitalized as
appropriate. Expenditures relating to existing
conditions caused by past operations, which do
not contribute to current or future revenues, are
expensed. Liabilities for remediation costs are
recorded when they are probable and reasonably
estimable, generally no later than the completion
of feasibility studies or Toyotaʼs commitment to a
plan of action. The cost of each environmental
liability is estimated by using current technology
available and various engineering, fi nancial and
legal specialists within Toyota based on current
law. Such liabilities do not refl ect any off set for
possible recoveries from insurance companies
and are not discounted. There were no material
changes
for all periods
presented.

Income taxes
The provision for income taxes is computed
based on the pretax income included in the
consolidated statement of income. The asset and
liability approach is used to recognize deferred
tax assets and liabilities for the expected future
tax consequences of temporary diff erences
between the carrying amounts and the tax bases
of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are
recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is
more likely than not that a tax benefi t will not be
realized.
Derivative fi nancial instruments
Toyota employs derivative fi nancial instruments,
including forward foreign currency exchange
contracts, foreign currency options, interest rate
swaps, interest rate currency swap agreements
and interest rate options to manage its exposure
to fl uctuations in interest rates and foreign
currency exchange rates. Toyota does not use
derivatives for speculation or trading purposes.
Changes in the fair value of derivatives are

dividing net income attributable to Toyota Motor
Corporation by the weighted-average number of
shares outstanding during the reported period.
The calculation of diluted net income attributable
to Toyota Motor Corporation per common share
is similar to the calculation of basic net income
attributable to Toyota Motor Corporation per
share, except that the weighted-average number
of shares outstanding includes the additional
dilution from the assumed exercise of dilutive
stock options.
Stock-based compensation
Toyota measures compensation expense for its
stock-based compensation plan based on the
grant-date fair value of the award.
Other comprehensive income
Other comprehensive income refers to revenues,
expenses, gains and losses that, under U.S. GAAP
are included in comprehensive income, but
are excluded from net income as these amounts
are
recorded directly as an adjustment to
shareholdersʼ equity. Toyotaʼs other comprehensive
income is primarily comprised of unrealized
gains/losses on marketable securities designated
as available-for-sale, foreign currency translation
adjustments and adjustments attributed to
pension liabilities or minimum pension liabilities
associated with Toyotaʼs defi ned benefi t pension
plans.
Accounting changes
In December 2007, FASB
issued updated
guidance of accounting for and disclosure
of business combinations. This guidance
establishes principles and requirements
for
how the acquirer recognizes and measures
the identifi able assets acquired, the liabilities
assumed, any noncontrolling interest, and the
goodwill acquired in a business combination or a
gain from a bargain purchase. Also, this guidance
provides several new disclosure requirements
that enable users of the fi nancial statements
to evaluate the nature and fi nancial eff ects of
the business combination. Toyota adopted this
guidance from the business combinations on
and after the beginning of fi scal year begun on
or after December 15, 2008. The adoption of
this guidance did not have a material impact on
Toyotaʼs consolidated fi nancial statements.
In December 2007, FASB
issued updated
guidance of accounting for and disclosure
of consolidation. This guidance establishes
accounting and reporting standards for the
noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for
the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Toyota
adopted this guidance from the fi scal year
begun on or after December 15, 2008. As a result,
noncontrolling interest, formerly reported as
minority interest, is reported as shareholdersʼ
equity in the consolidated balance sheets, and
the amount of net income attributable to the
parent and to the noncontrolling interest are
identifi ed and presented in the consolidated
statements of income. Since the presentation
and disclosure requirements have been applied
retrospectively for all periods presented in the
consolidated fi nancial statements in which this
guidance is applied, certain prior year amounts
have been reclassifi ed to conform to this
guidance. The adoption of this guidance did not
have a material impact on Toyotaʼs consolidated
fi nancial statements.
In December 2008, FASB
issued updated

requirements
In April 2009, FASB issued updated guidance
of accounting for and disclosure of investments.
This guidance revises the recognition and
presentation
for other-than-
temporary impairments of debt securities, and
contains additional disclosure
requirements
related to debt and equity securities. Toyota
adopted this guidance from the fi scal year
ended after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this
guidance did not have a material impact on
Toyotaʼs consolidated fi nancial statements.
In May 2009, FASB issued updated guidance
of accounting for and disclosure of subsequent
events. This guidance is intended to establish
general standards of accounting
for and
disclosure of events that occur after the balance
sheet date but before fi nancial statements are
issued. Toyota adopted this guidance from the

of this guidance did not have a material impact
on Toyotaʼs consolidated fi nancial statements.
Recent pronouncements to be adopted in
future periods
In June 2009, FASB issued updated guidance of
accounting for and disclosure of transfers and
servicing. This guidance eliminates the concept
of a qualifying special-purpose entity, changes
the requirements for derecognizing fi nancial
assets, and requires additional disclosures about
transfers of fi nancial assets. This guidance is
eff ective for fi scal year beginning after November
15, 2009, and for interim period within the fi scal
year. Management is evaluating the impact of
adopting this guidance on Toyotaʼs consolidated
fi nancial statements.

Retail receivables
Toyota acquires new and used vehicle installment
contracts primarily from dealers. Contract period
of these primarily range from 2 years to 7 years.
Installment contracts acquired must fi rst meet
specifi ed credit standards. Thereafter, Toyota
retains responsibility for contract collection and
administration. Toyota acquires security interests
in the vehicles fi nanced and can generally
repossess vehicles if customers fail to meet
their contractual obligations. Almost all retail
receivables are non-recourse, which relieves the
dealers from fi nancial responsibility in the event
of repossession.
Finance lease receivables
Toyota acquires new vehicle lease contracts
originated primarily through dealers. Contract
period of these primarily range from 2 years
to 5 years. Lease contracts acquired must fi rst
meet specifi ed credit standards after which
Toyota assumes ownership of the leased vehicle.
Toyota is responsible for contract collection and
administration during the lease period. Toyota
is generally permitted to take possession of the
vehicle upon a default by the lessee. The residual
value is estimated at the time the vehicle is fi rst
leased. Vehicles returned to Toyota at the end of
their leases are sold by auction.
Wholesale and other dealer loan receivables
to
Toyota provides wholesale fi nancing
qualifi ed dealers to fi nance inventories. Toyota
acquires security interests in vehicles fi nanced
at wholesale. In cases where additional security
interests would be required, Toyota takes
dealership assets or personal assets, or both, as
additional security. If a dealer defaults, Toyota
has the right to liquidate any assets acquired
and seek legal remedies. Toyota also makes
term loans to dealers for business acquisitions,
facilities refurbishment, real estate purchases
and working capital requirements. These loans
are typically secured with liens on real estate,

Toyota achieves sale accounting treatment
under U.S. GAAP in securitization transactions
structured as qualifying special-purpose entities
(“QSPE”s). Toyota recognizes a gain or loss on
the sale of the fi nance receivables upon the
transfer of the receivables to the securitization

Toyota sold fi nance receivables under the
program and recognized pretax gains resulting
from these sales of ¥1,688 million for the
year ended March 31, 2008, after providing
an allowance for estimated credit losses. The
gain on sale recorded depends on the carrying
amount of the assets at the time of the sale. The
carrying amount is allocated between the assets
sold and the retained interests based on their
relative fair values at the date of the sale. The key
economic assumptions initially and subsequently
measuring the fair value of retained interests
include the market interest rate environment,
severity and rate of credit
losses, and the
prepayment speed of the receivables. All key
economic assumptions used in the valuation of
the retained interests are reviewed periodically
and are revised as considered necessary.
At March 31, 2009 and 2010, Toyotaʼs retained
interests relating to these securitizations include
interest in trusts, interest-only strips, and other
receivables, amounting to ¥19,581 million and
¥12,883 million ($138 million), respectively.
Toyota recorded no impairments on retained
interests for the years ended March 31, 2008,
2009 and 2010. Impairments are calculated, if any,
by discounting cash fl ows using managementʼs
estimates and other key economic assumptions.
Expected cumulative static pool losses over the
life of the securitizations are calculated by taking
actual life to date losses plus projected losses and
dividing the sum by the original balance of each

These hypothetical scenarios do not refl ect
expected market conditions and should not be
used as a prediction of future performance. As
the fi gures indicate, changes in the fair value
may not be linear. Also, in this table, the eff ect
of a variation in a particular assumption on the
fair value of the retained interest is calculated
without changing any other assumption. Actual
changes in one factor may result in changes in
another, which might magnify or counteract the

impact of currency translation adjustments and
the impact of consolidation and deconsolidation
of certain entities due to changes in ownership
interest.
In addition to product warranties above,
Toyota initiates recalls and other safety measures
to repair or to replace parts which might be
expected to fail from products safety perspectives
or customer satisfaction standpoints. Toyota
accrues costs of these activities based on
managementʼs estimates. And during the fourth
quarter of this consolidated fi scal year, Toyota has

Other payables:
employed an estimation model, to accrue at the
time of vehicle sale, an amount that represents
managementʼs best estimate of expenses related
to future recalls and other safety measures. The
estimation model for recalls and other safety
measures takes into account Toyotaʼs historical
experience and individual occurrences of recalls
and other safety measures. These costs are not
included in the reconciliation above. See note
2 to the consolidated fi nancial statements for
additional information.
Other payables are mainly related to purchases of property, plant and equipment and non-manufacturing

rate in Japan of approximately 40.2% for the years ended March 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010. Such rate was
also used to calculate the tax eff ects of temporary diff erences, which are expected to be realized in the

Because management
intends to reinvest
undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries
to the extent not expected to be remitted
in the foreseeable future, management has
made no provision for income taxes on those
undistributed earnings aggregating ¥2,429,578
million ($26,113 million) as of March 31, 2010.
Toyota estimates an additional tax provision
of ¥98,035 million ($1,054 million) would be
required if the full amount of those undistributed
earnings were remitted.
Operating loss carryforwards for tax purposes
attributed to consolidated subsidiaries as of
March 31, 2010 were approximately ¥506,209
million ($5,441 million) and are available as an
off set against future taxable income of such
subsidiaries. The majority of these carryforwards
expire in years 2011 to 2030.

The Corporation Act provides that an amount
equal to 10% of distributions from surplus paid by
the parent company and its Japanese subsidiaries
be appropriated as a capital reserve or a retained
earnings reserve. No further appropriations are
required when the total amount of the capital
reserve and the retained earnings reserve reaches
25% of stated capital.
The retained earnings reserve included in
retained earnings as of March 31, 2009 and
2010 was ¥167,722 million and ¥168,680 million
($1,813 million), respectively. The Corporation Act
provides that the retained earnings reserve of the
parent company and its Japanese subsidiaries is
restricted and unable to be used for dividend
payments, and is excluded from the calculation
of the profi t available for dividend.
The amounts of statutory retained earnings
of the parent company available for dividend
payments to shareholders were ¥5,624,709
million and ¥5,478,747 million ($58,886 million)
as of March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively. In
accordance with customary practice in Japan,
the distributions from surplus are not accrued in
the fi nancial statements for the corresponding
period, but are recorded in the subsequent
accounting period after shareholdersʼ approval
has been obtained. Retained earnings at March
31, 2010 include amounts representing year-end
cash dividends of ¥78,400 million ($843 million),
¥25 ($0.27) per share, which were approved at
the Ordinary General Shareholdersʼ Meeting,
held on June 24, 2010.
Retained earnings at March 31, 2010 include
¥1,344,903 million ($14,455 million) relating to
equity in undistributed earnings of companies
accounted for by the equity method.
On June 23, 2006, at the Ordinary General
Shareholdersʼ Meeting, the shareholders of the
parent company approved to purchase up to 30
million shares of its common stock at a cost up
to ¥200,000 million during the purchase period
of one year from the following day. As a result,
the parent company repurchased approximately
28 million shares during the approved period of
time.
On June 22, 2007, at the Ordinary General
Shareholdersʼ Meeting, the shareholders of the
parent company approved to purchase up to 30
million shares of its common stock at a cost up to
¥250,000 million during the purchase period of
one year from the following day. As a result, the
parent company repurchased 30 million shares
during the approved period of time.
On February 5, 2008, the Board of Directors
resolved to purchase up to 12 million shares of its
common stock at a cost up to ¥60,000 million in
accordance with the Corporation Act. As a result,
the parent company repurchased approximately
10 million shares.
On the same date, the Board of Directors
also resolved to retire 162 million shares of its
common stock, and then the parent company
retired its common stock on March 31, 2008. This
retirement, in accordance with the Corporation
Act and related regulations, is treated as a
reduction from additional paid-in capital and
retained earnings. As a result, treasury stock,
additional paid-in capital and retained earnings
decreased by ¥646,681 million, ¥3,499 million
and ¥643,182 million, respectively.
On June 24, 2008, at the Ordinary General
Shareholdersʼ Meeting, the shareholders of the
parent company approved to purchase up to 30
million shares of its common stock at a cost up
to ¥200,000 million during the purchase period
of one year from the following day. As a result,
the parent company repurchased approximately
14 million shares during the approved period of
time. These approvals by the shareholders are
not required under the current regulation.

In June 1997, the parent companyʼs shareholders
approved a stock option plan for board members.
In June 2001, the shareholders approved an
amendment of the plan to include both board
members and key employees. Each year, since
inception, the shareholders have
the plansʼ
approved the authorization for the grant of
options for the purchase of Toyotaʼs common
stock. Authorized shares for each year that
remain ungranted are unavailable for grant in
future years. Stock options granted in and after
August 2002 have terms ranging from 6 years to
8 years and an exercise price equal to 1.025 times
the closing price of Toyotaʼs common stock on
the date of grant. These options generally vest 2
years from the date of grant.
On June 24, 2010, at the Ordinary General
Shareholdersʼ Meeting, the shareholders of the
parent company approved the authorization of
an additional up to 3,600,000 shares for issuance
under the Toyotaʼs stock option plan for directors,
offi cers and employees of the parent company,
its subsidiaries and affi liates.
For the years ended March 31, 2008, 2009
and 2010, Toyota
recognized stock-based
compensation expenses for stock options of
¥3,273 million, ¥3,015 million and ¥2,446 million
($26 million) as selling, general and administrative
expenses.
The weighted-average grant-date fair value of
options granted during the years ended March
31, 2008, 2009 and 2010 was ¥1,199, ¥635 and
¥803 ($9), respectively per share. The fair value
of options granted is amortized over the option

TOYOTA ANNUAL REPORT 2010
Pension and severance plans
Upon terminations of employment, employees
of the parent company and subsidiaries in Japan
are entitled, under the retirement plans of each
company, to lump-sum indemnities or pension
payments, based on current rates of pay and
lengths of service or the number of “points”
mainly determined by those. Under normal
circumstances, the minimum payment prior to
retirement age is an amount based on voluntary
additional
retirement.
benefi ts on involuntary retirement, including
retirement at the age limit.
Employees
receive
Eff ective October 1, 2004, the parent company
amended its retirement plan to introduce a
“point” based retirement benefi t plan. Under
the new plan, employees are entitled to lump-
sum or pension payments determined based
on accumulated “points” vested in each year of
service.
There are three types of “points” that vest
in each year of service consisting of “service
period points” which are attributed to the
length of service, “job title points” which are
attributed to the job title of each employee,
and “performance points” which are attributed
to the annual performance evaluation of each
employee. Under normal circumstances, the
minimum payment prior to retirement age is an
amount refl ecting an adjustment rate applied
to represent voluntary retirement. Employees
receive additional benefi ts upon involuntary
retirement, including retirement at the age limit.
Eff ective October 1, 2005, the parent company
partly amended
retirement plan and
introduced the quasi cash-balance plan under
which benefi ts are determined based on the
its
variable-interest crediting rate rather than the
fi xed-interest crediting rate as was in the pre-
amended plan.
The parent company and most subsidiaries
in Japan have contributory funded defi ned
benefi t pension plans, which are pursuant to
the Corporate Defi ned Benefi t Pension Plan
Law (CDBPPL). The contributions to the plans
are funded with several fi nancial institutions
in accordance with the applicable laws and
regulations. These pension plan assets consist
principally of common stocks, government
bonds and insurance contracts.
Most foreign subsidiaries have pension plans or
severance indemnity plans covering substantially
all of their employees under which the cost of
benefi ts are currently invested or accrued. The
benefi ts for these plans are based primarily on
lengths of service and current rates of pay.
Toyota uses a March 31 measurement date for
its benefi t plans.

The expected rate of return on plan assets is
determined after considering several applicable
factors including, the composition of plan assets
held, assumed risks of asset management,
historical
returns on plan
assets, Toyotaʼs principal policy for plan asset
management, and forecasted market conditions.
Toyotaʼs policy and objective for plan asset
management
returns on
plan assets to meet future benefi t payment
requirements under risks which Toyota considers
permissible. Asset allocations under the plan
asset management are determined based on
plan asset management policies of each plan
which are established to achieve the optimized
asset compositions in terms of the long-term
overall plan asset management. Excepting equity
securities contributed by Toyota, approximately
50% of the plan assets is invested in equity
securities, approximately 30% is invested in debt
securities, and the rest of them is invested in
insurance contracts and other products. When
actual allocations are not in line with target
allocations, Toyota rebalances its investments
in accordance with the policies. Prior to making
individual investments, Toyota performs in-depth
assessments of corresponding factors including
category of products, industry type, currencies
and liquidity of each potential investment under
consideration to mitigate concentrations of
risks such as market risk and foreign currency
exchange rate risk. To assess performance of
the investments, Toyota establishes bench mark
return rates for each
investment,
combines these individual bench mark rates
based on the asset composition ratios within
each asset category, and compares the combined
rates with the corresponding actual return rates
on each asset category.

The following is description of the assets,
information about the valuation techniques used
to measure fair value, key inputs and signifi cant
assumptions:
Quoted market prices for identical securities are
used to measure fair value of common stocks. As
of March 31, 2010, common stocks include 64%
of Japanese stocks and 36% of foreign stocks.
Quoted market prices for identical securities
are used to measure fair value of government
bonds. As of March 31, 2010, government bonds
include 25% of Japanese government bonds and
75% of foreign government bonds.
Commingled funds are benefi cial interests of
collective trust, which are mainly invested by the
parent company and Japanese subsidiaries. The

Postretirement benefi ts other than pensions
and postemployment benefi ts
Toyotaʼs U.S. subsidiaries provide certain health
insurance benefi ts to eligible
care and
retired employees. In addition, Toyota provides
benefi ts to certain former or inactive employees
after employment, but before retirement. These
life
benefi ts are currently unfunded and provided
through various
insurance companies and
health care providers. The costs of these benefi ts
are recognized over the period the employee
provides credited service to Toyota. Toyotaʼs
obligations under these arrangements are not
material.

Derivative fi nancial instruments:
Toyota employs derivative fi nancial instruments,
including foreign exchange forward contracts,
foreign currency options, interest rate swaps,
interest rate currency swap agreements and
interest rate options to manage its exposure to
fl uctuations in interest rates and foreign currency
exchange rates. Toyota does not use derivatives
for speculation or trading.
into
Fair value hedges
interest rate swaps and
Toyota enters
interest rate currency swap agreements mainly
to convert its fi xed-rate debt to variable-rate
debt. Toyota uses interest rate swap agreements
in managing interest rate risk exposure. Interest
rate swap agreements are executed as either
an integral part of specifi c debt transactions or
on a portfolio basis. Toyota uses interest rate
currency swap agreements to hedge exposure
to currency exchange rate fl uctuations on
principal and interest payments for borrowings
denominated in foreign currencies. Notes and
loans payable issued in foreign currencies are
hedged by concurrently executing interest rate
currency swap agreements, which involve the
exchange of foreign currency principal and
interest obligations for each functional currency
obligations at agreed-upon currency exchange
and interest rates.
For the years ended March 31, 2008, 2009 and
2010, the ineff ective portion of Toyotaʼs fair value
hedge relationships was not material. For fair
value hedging relationships, the components of
each derivativeʼs gain or loss are included in the
assessment of hedge eff ectiveness.
Undesignated derivative fi nancial instruments
Toyota uses foreign exchange forward contracts,
foreign currency options, interest rate swaps,
interest rate currency swap agreements, and
interest rate options, to manage its exposure
to foreign currency exchange rate fl uctuations
and interest rate fl uctuations from an economic
perspective, and for which Toyota is unable or
has elected not to apply hedge accounting.

Credit risk related contingent features
Toyota enters
International Swaps and
Derivatives Association Master Agreements
with counterparties. These Master Agreements
contain a provision requiring either Toyota or
the counterparty to settle the contract or to post
assets to the other party in the event of a ratings
downgrade below a specifi ed threshold.
The aggregate fair value amount of derivative
fi nancial instruments that contain credit risk
related contingent features that are in a net
liability position as of March 31, 2010 is ¥63,445
million ($682 million). The aggregate fair value
amount of assets that are already posted as of
March 31, 2010 is ¥9,469 million ($102 million).
If the ratings of Toyota decline below specifi ed
thresholds, the maximum amount of assets to
be posted or for which Toyota could be required
to settle the contracts is ¥63,445 million ($682

Other fi nancial instruments:
Toyota has certain fi nancial
instruments,
including fi nancial assets and liabilities and off -
balance sheet fi nancial instruments which arose
in the normal course of business. These fi nancial
instruments are executed with creditworthy
fi nancial institutions, and virtually all foreign
currency contracts are denominated
in U.S.
dollars, euros and other currencies of major
industrialized countries. Financial instruments
involve, to varying degrees, market risk as
instruments are subject to price fl uctuations,
and elements of credit risk in the event a
counterparty should default.
In the unlikely
event the counterparties fail to meet the
contractual terms of a foreign currency or an
interest rate instrument, Toyotaʼs risk is limited
to the fair value of the instrument. Although
Toyota may be exposed to losses in the event of
non-performance by counterparties on fi nancial
instruments, it does not anticipate signifi cant
losses due to the nature of its counterparties.
Counterparties to Toyotaʼs fi nancial instruments
represent,
international fi nancial
institutions. Additionally, Toyota does not
have a signifi cant exposure to any individual
counterparty. Toyota believes that the overall
credit risk related to its fi nancial instruments is
not signifi cant.
in general,
The estimated fair values of Toyotaʼs fi nancial instruments, excluding marketable securities and other
securities investments and affi liated companies and derivative fi nancial instruments, are summarized as

Commitments
Commitments outstanding at March 31, 2010 for
the purchase of property, plant and equipment

Guarantees
Toyota enters into contracts with Toyota dealers
to guarantee customersʼ payments of their
installment payables that arise from installment
contracts between customers and Toyota dealers,
as and when requested by Toyota dealers.
Guarantee periods are set to match maturity of
installment payments, and at March 31, 2010,
range from 1 month to 35 years; however, they
are generally shorter than the useful lives of
products sold. Toyota is required to execute its
guarantee primarily when customers are unable
to make required payments. The maximum
potential amount of future payments as of March
31, 2010 is ¥1,604,893 million ($17,249 million).
Liabilities for guarantees totaling ¥5,969 million
($64 million) have been provided as of March 31,
2010. Under these guarantee contracts, Toyota is
entitled to recover any amount paid by Toyota
