Part I: Financial Results
1. Explanation of Financial Results
<Business Environment>
During the first quarter of fiscal 2013 (April 1, 2013 - June 30, 2013), the global economy continued to experience a weak recovery. In Europe, economic conditions continued to deteriorate as a result of fiscal austerity measures and rising unemployment. Although the US is experiencing a mild recovery, expectations that quantitative easing would be scaled down resulted in instability in financial markets. The rate of economic growth in emerging market countries continued to slow on account of depressed consumer spending and lower exports.
In Japan, the economy saw a partial improvement in consumer spending due to a stock market rally and yen depreciation spurred on by the government's economic policy and monetary easing by the Bank of Japan. Exports also displayed signs of recovery as a result of the improved economic environment due to yen depreciation.
Although companies in Japan continue to take a cautious stance toward investments in information and communication technology (ICT), there were signs of a partial recovery. Outside of Japan, primarily in Europe, economic conditions continued to deteriorate, and companies have persisted in putting constraints on investment spending.

*In accordance with the amended IAS 19 Employee Benefits, of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), which the Fujitsu Group's consolidated subsidiaries outside of Japan have adopted, the figures for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 have been retroactively revised. As a result, selling, general and administrative expenses have increased by 1.6 billion yen, and operating income has been reduced by 1.6 billion yen. Similarly, other income statement figures, including net income, have also been revised.
Net assets have been reduced due to the unrecognized obligation for retirement benefits of subsidiaries outside Japan as of the end of fiscal 2012, which amounted to 157.3 billion yen, has been brought onto the consolidated balance sheet. For further details, please see "Retroactive Revisions from Changes in Accounting Standards."
<Profit and Loss>
Note: In these explanatory materials, the yen figures for net sales, operating income, and other figures are converted into US$ amounts, for reference purposes, at a rate of $1=99 yen, the approximate Tokyo foreign exchange market rate on June 30, 2013. Figures for and comparisons to prior reporting periods are provided only for reference. The impact of foreign exchange fluctuations has been calculated by using the average US dollar, euro, and British pound foreign exchange rates for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 to translate the current period's net sales outside Japan into yen.
Consolidated net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 were 999.2 billion yen (US$10,093 million), an increase of 4.4% from the first quarter of fiscal 2012 as a result of foreign exchange fluctuations and other factors. Net sales in Japan declined by 5.7%. The decline in sales was primarily in hardware products, such as mobile phones and PCs. On the other hand, sales of system integration services rose in such sectors as manufacturing, financial services, and the public sector. Sales outside of Japan rose 22.8%. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations, sales rose by 3%. Sales increased largely on a recovery in demand for optical transmission systems in North America, and there were also higher sales of LSI devices and electronic components.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the average yen exchange rates against major currencies were 99 yen for the US dollar (representing yen depreciation of 19 yen from the first quarter of fiscal 2012), 129 yen for the euro (depreciation of 26 yen), and 152 yen for the British pound (depreciation of 25 yen). The impact of foreign exchange movements was to increase net sales by approximately 65.0 billion yen compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Sales generated outside Japan as a percentage of total sales were 41.6%, an increase of 6.3 percentage points compared to the first quarter of the previous fiscal year, mainly as a result of foreign exchange fluctuations and a reduction in hardware sales in Japan.
Gross profit was 259.6 billion yen, an increase of 8.9 billion yen from the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Despite the adverse impact from the decline in sales of mobile phones and other products, gross profit increased because of foreign exchange movements and a variety of measures implemented to reduce costs. The gross profit margin was 26%, a decline of 0.2 of a percentage point from the first quarter of the prior fiscal year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were 282.4 billion yen, an increase of 5.0 billion yen from the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase was the result of the weaker yen, despite the implementation of Group-wide measures to generate cost efficiencies, and decline on a constant currency basis.
Fujitsu recorded an operating loss of 22.8 billion yen (US$230 million), an improvement of 3.9 billion yen from the previous fiscal year's first quarter. While there was the adverse impact stemming from lower sales of mobile phones, the improvement was the result of the impact of a weaker yen and emergency workforce-related measures. In addition, the impact of structural reforms in the LSI business and businesses outside Japan has gradually begun to contribute to earnings.
There was 4.1 billion yen in other income and expenses, representing a year-on-year improvement of 3.9 billion yen, primarily the result of an improvement in foreign currency translation adjustments and a gain on the sale of equity securities.
Fujitsu reported a consolidated net loss of 21.9 billion yen (US$221 million), representing an improvement of 3.5 billion yen compared to the loss posted in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
<Results by Business Segment>
Information on fiscal 2013 first-quarter consolidated net sales (including intersegment sales) and operating income broken out by business segment is presented as follows.

Consolidated net sales in the Technology Solutions segment amounted to 677.5 billion yen (US$6,843 million), an increase of 8% from the same period in fiscal 2012. Sales in Japan were essentially unchanged. Server-related sales declined due to a slower-than-expected initial launch period for new UNIX server products. In network products, despite higher spending by telecommunications carriers to expand LTE coverage, sales as a whole were on par with the first quarter of fiscal 2012, when there was higher demand for 3G communications equipment to handle increasing volumes of communications traffic. In infrastructure services, outsourcing services grew steadily, but overall sales were weak compared to the first quarter of the previous fiscal year, when demand related to network services increased as telecommunications carriers tried to keep up with higher volumes of communications traffic. For systems integration services, despite the adverse impact of a shift toward spending on hardware by telecommunications carriers, sales grew on account of increased spending, primarily in the manufacturing, financial services and public sectors. Sales outside Japan increased 21.1%. On a constant currency basis, sales increased by 3%. Infrastructure service sales declined due to the impact of corporate spending restraints from the economic downturn in Europe. In addition, sales of new UNIX server models were weak. Sales of optical transmission systems in the US increased on a recovery in spending by telecommunications carriers.
The segment posted operating income of 2.5 billion yen (US$25 million), up 3.4 billion yen compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. In Japan, operating income was positively impacted by higher sales of system integration services, while network-related sales fell and upfront R&D spending increased. Outside Japan, operating income rose as a result of cost reductions, primarily for x86 servers and in the European services business, as well as the impact of higher sales of network products.

Net sales in the Services sub-segment amounted to 554.9 billion yen (US$5,605 million), an increase of 8% from the first quarter of the previous fiscal year. Sales in Japan rose 1.7%. In systems integration services, despite the adverse impact of a shift toward spending on hardware by telecommunications carriers, sales rose due to increased spending, primarily in the manufacturing, financial services and public sectors. In infrastructure services, outsourcing services grew steadily, but overall sales were weak due to a drop in subscribers in the ISP business and a shift away from packaged products that include connection fees to stand-alone products. Also impacting comparisons was the increased demand related to network services in the first quarter of fiscal 2012, when telecommunications carriers tried to keep up with higher volumes of communications traffic. Sales outside Japan increased 18.2%. On a constant currency basis, sales were on par with the same period in fiscal 2012. Sales were adversely affected by lower corporate spending stemming from the economic downturn in Europe.
Operating income for the Services sub-segment was 5.5 billion yen (US$56 million), an increase of 2.2 billion yen compared to the first quarter of the previous fiscal year. In Japan, despite a decline in network service sales, operating income as a whole increased on the positive impact of higher sales of system integration services. Outside Japan, progress was made in achieving cost efficiencies in the European business, and goodwill amortization expenses declined.
In accordance with the amended IAS 19 Employee Benefits, of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), comparisons of operating income in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 reflect the retroactive revision of fiscal 2012 first quarter figures. For further details, please see "Retroactive Revisions from Changes in Accounting Standards." In this quarter, the change in the accounting standards caused retirement benefit expenses to increase by approximately 2.4 billion yen.

Net sales in the System Platforms sub-segment were 122.5 billion yen (US$1,237 million), an increase of 8.1% from the same period of the year earlier. Sales in Japan fell 2.8%. Server-related sales declined due to delays in the launch of new UNIX server products. In network products, despite higher spending by telecommunications carriers to expand LTE coverage, sales as a whole were on par with the first quarter of fiscal 2012, when there was higher demand for 3G communications equipment to handle growing volumes of communications traffic. Sales outside Japan increased 42.8%. On a constant currency basis, sales significantly increased by 17%. Sales of new UNIX server models were weak. Optical transmission system sales in the US increased on a recovery in spending by telecommunications carriers.
The System Platforms sub-segment posted an operating loss of 2.9 billion yen (US$29 million), representing an improvement of 1.1 billion yen compared to the same period of fiscal 2012. In Japan, operating income decreased due to lower sales and higher upfront R&D spending in network products. Outside Japan, income was positively impacted by cost efficiencies, primarily in the x86 server business, and higher sales of network products.

Net sales in the Ubiquitous Solutions segment were 215.9 billion yen (US$2,181 million), a decline of 8% from the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Sales in Japan were down by 16.9%. PC sales declined as unit sales fell on account of the shrinking consumer PC market, and on account of the large-volume orders received during the first quarter of the previous fiscal year from customers in the financial services industry. In mobile phones, sales fell on account of the shrinking market for feature phones, in addition to revisions in the smartphone sales strategies of telecommunications carriers. Sales of the Mobilewear sub-segment's car audio and navigation systems were adversely impacted by lower new vehicle sales due to the conclusion of the government's subsidy program for eco-friendly vehicles, but sales as a whole rose as a result of strong sales of luxury vehicles. Sales outside Japan increased 18.7%. On a constant currency basis, sales increased 2%. Unit sales in Europe declined due to an emphasis on profitability, but Mobilewear sales rose, primarily in North America.
The Ubiquitous Solutions segment posted an operating loss of 17.1 billion yen (US$173 million), down 15.1 billion yen from the first quarter of the previous fiscal year. In Japan, unit sales of mobile phones declined and procurement costs rose. In addition, PC sales also fell on lower unit volumes and increased procurement costs as a result of yen depreciation. Despite the positive impact of higher sales, operating income for Mobilewear remained essentially unchanged from the first quarter of last year due to higher development expenses. Outside Japan, operating income benefitted from an emphasis on profitability for sales of PCs, as well as cost reductions in parts procurement. Mobilewear was also positively impacted by increased sales.

Note: LSI devices sales include intrasegment sales to the electronic components business.
Net sales in Device Solutions amounted to 145.3 billion yen (US$1,468 million), an increase of 11.5% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Sales in Japan declined 6.4%. Sales of LSI devices used in smartphones increased, but sales of LSI devices used in digital audio-visual equipment and manufacturing equipment decreased. Sales of electronic components, including semiconductor packages and batteries, also decreased. Sales outside Japan increased by 33.6%. On a constant currency basis, sales increased 10%. Sales of LSI devices for smartphones, particularly in Asia, increased. For electronic components, sales of semiconductor packages, primarily to China, declined, but sales of batteries increased.
The Device Solutions segment recorded operating income of 7.6 billion yen (US$77 million), an improvement of 11.2 billion yen compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012, and representing the second straight quarter of profitable results. In Japan, results for LSI devices were adversely affected by lower sales, but overhead expenses decreased because of the sale of production facilities in the prior fiscal year. Capacity utilization on the production lines for 300mm wafers remained high because of an increase in demand for use in smartphones, but capacity utilization rates on the production lines for standard logic devices continued to be low. Fujitsu is consolidating the production lines for standard logic devices in the Aizu-Wakamatsu region and thereby raise capacity utilization rates. Results for electronic components were adversely affected by lower sales and the burden of development expenditures incurred by an affiliate developing semiconductors for communications equipment. Operating income outside of Japan improved on higher demand and the impact of higher sales resulting from the weaker yen.
As part of the structural reforms to its LSI business, Fujitsu implemented an early retirement incentive plan with the aim of adjusting the headcount in the business to an optimal level. In Japan, 1,963 employees enrolled in the program, of which approximately 1,600 retired by the end of June. Employees working on production lines for standard logic devices who signed up for an early retirement incentive plan are expected to retire after the production lines have been consolidated in the Aizu-Wakamatsu region.
Other/Elimination and Corporate
This segment recorded an operating loss of 15.9 billion yen (US$161 million), representing an improvement of 4.3 billion yen from the first quarter of fiscal 2012 as a result of Group-wide progress in generating cost efficiencies.

The figures for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 have been retroactively revised in accordance with the adoption of the amended IAS 19 Employee Benefits. As a result, operating income outside of Japan has been reduced by 1.6 billion yen, primarily from the EMEA region.
<Retroactive Revisions from Changes in Accounting Standards>
The Fujitsu Group's consolidated subsidiaries outside of Japan, which prepare their financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), have adopted the amended IAS 19 Employee Benefits from the beginning of FY2013. As a result, for comparison figures, we have retroactively revised the financial statement figures stated for fiscal 2012.
A summary of the revised standards and their impact on the consolidated financial statement figures for fiscal 2012 are as follows.
1. Summary of the Revisions
i. Unrecognized obligation for retirement benefits are reflected on the consolidated balance sheets after adjusting for tax effects.
ii. The corridor approach for amortizing actuarial gains or losses is eliminated under IFRS, but it is necessary to reflect these amortized amounts under Japanese accounting standards, and amortization expenses have increased because of amounts that previously had not been recognized under the corridor approach.
iii. Net interest on the net defined benefit liability (asset) has been adopted. (Gains in pension assets are also calculated by the discount rate, so costs have increased.

2. Explanation of Financial Condition
(1) Assets, Liabilities and Net Assets
Consolidated total assets at the end of the first quarter were 2,906.1 billion yen (US$29,355 million), a decrease of 14.2 billion yen from the end of fiscal 2012. Current assets decreased by 26.0 billion yen compared with the end of fiscal 2012, to 1,696.2 billion yen. Notes and accounts receivable, trade decreased by 175.7 billion yen compared to the end of the prior fiscal year, reflecting the collection associated with the large concentration of sales toward the end of each fiscal year. In preparation for future expected sales, particularly in the services business, inventories at the end of the quarter increased to 374.1 billion yen, an increase of 51.0 billion yen from the ending balance of fiscal 2012. The monthly inventory turnover ratio, which is an indication of asset utilization efficiency, was 0.89 times, an improvement 0.05 times compared to the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
Non-current assets increased by 11.8 billion yen from the end of fiscal 2012, to 1,209.8 billion yen. Investments and other non-current assets increased by 13.0 billion yen because the rise in stock prices increased the value of investment securities.
Consolidated total liabilities amounted to 2,159.3 billion yen (US$21,811 million), a decrease of 8.5 billion yen compared to the end of fiscal 2012, reflecting the payment of trade notes and accounts payable relating to the concentration of sales at the end of the prior fiscal year, as well as the payment of accrued expenses, including salary bonuses. The balance of interest-bearing loans was 635.6 billion yen, an increase of 100.7 billion yen from the end of fiscal 2012. Borrowings increased to finance a portion of working capital. As a result, the D/E ratio was 1.03 times, a deterioration of 0.17 of a percentage point compared to the end of fiscal 2012, and the net D/E ratio was 0.40 times, unchanged compared to the end of fiscal 2012. Both ratios have deteriorated compared to the end of the first quarter of the previous fiscal year because of the deterioration in owners' equity resulting from the losses recorded in fiscal 2012 and the first quarter of fiscal 2013.
Net assets were 746.7 billion yen (US$7,542 million), a decrease of 5.7 billion yen from the end of fiscal 2012. Shareholders' equity decreased by 21.9 billion yen as a result of the net loss recorded in the quarter, but accumulated other comprehensive income increased by 17.3 billion yen as a result of the weakening of the yen and the rise in stock prices. The owners' equity ratio was 21.3%, essentially unchanged from end of fiscal 2012.

3. The figures for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 and full-year fiscal 2012 have been retroactively revised in accordance with the adoption of the amended IAS 19 Employee Benefits. Owners' equity for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 has been reduced by 101.7 billion yen, and it has been reduced by 157.3 billion yen for full-year fiscal 2012. D/E ratio and others are also revised.
(2) Cash Flows
Net cash flows from operating activities in the first quarter amounted to 21.1 billion yen (US$213 million). This represents an increase in cash inflows of 31.2 billion yen compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Despite the adverse impact from lower sales of PCs and mobile phones, cash flows increased owing to improved income (loss) before income taxes and minority interests due to the impact of workforce-related measures and structural reforms, and the positive impact of a weaker yen, in addition to a decline in working capital.
Net cash used in investing activities was 18.5 billion yen (US$187 million). Outflows mainly consisted of the acquisition of property, plant and equipment amounting to 21.8 billion yen, primarily related to datacenters, and the acquisition of intangible assets, primarily software, amounting to 13.6 billion yen. Compared to the same period in fiscal 2012, net outflows decreased by 15.8 billion yen. The maturity of time deposits on temporary surplus funds resulted in an inflow of cash.
Free cash flow, the sum of cash flows from operating and investing activities, was 2.6 billion yen (US$26 million), representing an increase in net cash inflows of 47.0 billion yen compared with the same period in the previous fiscal year.
Net cash provided by financing activities was 90.5 billion yen (US$914 million). A portion of working capital was financed through short-term borrowings. In addition, short-term borrowings in the previous fiscal year that were used to finance a special contribution to the pension fund of a UK subsidiary were replaced by long-term borrowings. Compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012, cash inflows decreased by 56.8 billion yen.
As a result of the above factors, cash and cash equivalents at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 were 387.2 billion yen (US$3,911 million), an increase of 102.6 billion yen compared to the end of fiscal 2012.
(3) Status of Retirement Benefit Plans
Of Fujitsu's unrecognized obligation for retirement benefits, 157.3 billion yen, representing the portion from the pension plans of subsidiaries outside Japan, was reflected on the consolidated balance sheets through other comprehensive income. The portion from the pension plans of Fujitsu and its subsidiaries in Japan will be reflected on the consolidated balance sheets at the end of fiscal 2013.
The amortization expenses stemming from the actuarial losses in the pension plans of subsidiaries outside Japan are transferred from other comprehensive income.

3. FY2013 Earnings Projections
For the first quarter of fiscal 2013, Fujitsu reported consolidated net sales of 999.2 billion yen, an increase of 41.8 billion yen, and an operating loss of 22.8 billion yen, an improvement of 3.9 billion yen compared to the loss in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The PC and mobile phone businesses experienced a sharp decline in operating income as the weak yen increased procurement costs for parts and materials, and because the competitive environment remained severe. On an overall consolidated basis, however, operating income improved on better results in the Device Solutions segment, where results were helped by the positive impact of a weaker yen and a recovery in demand for LSI devices, and because of various workforce-related measures and progress in streamlining corporate headquarters functions.
Compared to the projections announced at the beginning of the fiscal year, PCs and mobile phones have slightly underperformed, whereas the Device Solutions segment has outperformed, primarily as a result of the positive impact of the weaker yen. On an overall consolidated basis, results are trending slightly above projections.
Compared to assumptions made at the start of the fiscal year, the yen was weaker than expected in the first quarter, but in light of the risk of continued fluctuations in the second quarter and beyond, Fujitsu has not changed its foreign exchange assumptions of 93 yen for the US dollar, 120 yen for the euro, and 140 yen for the British pound.
In light of these circumstances, at the present time projections for the first half of fiscal 2013 and full-year fiscal 2013 remain unchanged from those announced at the beginning of the fiscal year.
