To Our Shareholders

We would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation for our shareholders’ continuous support to us in stating our business report for 113th business term, from April 1, 2012 to March 31, 2013.

Consolidated net sales of the Ricoh Group for the fiscal year under review amounted to ¥1,924.4 billion, which represents an increase of 1.1% from the previous fiscal year, while net income attributable to Ricoh Company, Ltd. amounted to ¥32.4 billion, which represents an increase of ¥77.0 billion from the previous fiscal year. Although severe conditions prevailed in the business environment surrounding the Ricoh Group, including the economic slump resulting from the European debt crisis, sluggish growth in China and other emerging countries, and prolonged appreciation of the yen, we were able to achieve a significant increase in net income compared to the previous fiscal year, thanks to the steady progress in transformation of our business structure to offer new value to customers, and in streamlining through structural reform.

With regard to dividends, we will be proposing a year-end dividend of ¥16.50 per share at the 113th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders. In addition to the interim dividend already disbursed, the total dividend for the fiscal year under review would amount to ¥29 per share, an increase of ¥4 from the previous fiscal year.

Although the global economic situation remains uncertain despite the appearance of bright signs for the future in some parts of the Japanese economy, the Ricoh Group seeks to achieve net sales of ¥2,100.0 billion and net income attributable to Ricoh Company, Ltd. of ¥80.0 billion in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014.

We look forward to your support and encouragement to the Ricoh Group from now on.


		Sincerely,

		June 2013

		Shiro Kondo,
		Representative Director, Chairman of the Board

		Zenji Miura,
		Representative Director,
		President and CEO

Overview

Business Environment

The Japanese economy has shown signs of gradual recovery with the increase in demand relating to the recovery and restoration of the areas affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake. However, with the prolonged appreciation of the yen, along with the continued concerns of a global economic slowdown, the economic environment remained fairly stagnant throughout the fiscal year. Since the end of last year, the higher expectations arising from the economic recovery plans introduced by the new cabinet and the Bank of Japan’s monetary easing policy have helped to weaken the yen and increase the stock prices, but the overall economic outlook still remains unpredictable.

Outside of the domestic market, the U.S. economy is showing signs of a modest recovery, but the European economy remains stagnant under the prolonged European debt crisis, along with the slowdown in growth occurring in China and the rest of the emerging markets. These economic conditions have continuously affected the overseas sales of Ricoh.

The RICOH Way and RICOH Brand Benefits

The Ricoh Group sets The RICOH Way, which is based on our founding principles and Mission, Vision, and Values, as basis of our business activity. In The RICOH Way, Ricoh aims “to be the most trusted brand with irresistible appeal in the global market” and has as its mission “at the Ricoh Group, we are committed to providing excellence to improve the quality of living”.

With the RICOH Way in mind, Ricoh has been providing innovative products and services that embody the RICOH Brand Benefits of “Harmonize with the environment”, “Simplify your life and work”, and “Support knowledge management” to all customers who handle information. Also, Ricoh aims to earn greater trust by continuing to contribute to the improvement of customers’ productivity and knowledge creation in aiming to continue growing in the future.

Medium and Long Term Management Strategy

The business environment surrounding the Ricoh Group has drastically changed in the past several years and we are currently at a turning point for our core Imaging & Solutions business.

- 11 -

In developed countries, the demands for copiers and multifunction equipment have become stagnant. More information is processed in the office environment than ever before, but the increase in the information communicated is handled more through the Internet by devices such as smartphones and tablet PCs. This has increased the variations in the way we print. Furthermore, amid heightened cost consciousness since the world financial crisis, combined with the development of cloud computing, the values sought by customers are shifting towards an emphasis on “owning products” in addition to “using services”. It is becoming increasingly difficult to respond adequately to customer demands through product function and price alone.

The Ricoh Group has launched the 17th Mid-Term Management Plan that runs from April 2011 to March 2014, which defines “business creation and integration” and “establishment of highly efficient management” as its two basic strategies to adapt to these changes.

For “business creation and integration”, aiming for “regeneration”, we are implementing measures to reinforce the earning power through core businesses, to create new profit models in current core businesses and to accelerate development for new growth businesses.

With regard to the “establishment of highly efficient management”, we are reconstructing our corporate systems in order to build an organization that can maintain accelerated business growth while properly responding to any changes in the business environment. Also in order to improve resource efficiency, we are reviewing our business processes and our allocation of human resources. We are also conducting a full analysis of all business activities, and advancing structural reform.

The status of achievement for this fiscal year on our core strategies are as follows:

- Business Creation and Integration

In the Imaging & Solutions segment, we have introduced a full line-up of products that will contribute to the increase in productivity and reduction of total cost of ownership (TCO) for our customers.

With regards to our digital monochrome multifunction equipment, we have introduced the MP 9002/7502/6002/6002GP series. These products are the first in the office equipment industry to use electric furnace steel sheets that are made of 100% steel scrap in some of its parts, thus reducing the volume of new resources used.

Additionally, we have introduced a full line-up of reconditioned multifunction equipment, which are comprised of MP C4000RC SRF/MP C2800RC SRF for color printing and MP 7501RC/6001RC/5000RC/4000RC/3350RC/2550RC series for monochrome printing. These products are manufactured using mainly reusable parts and have contributed to a large reduction in the level of CO2 during the manufacturing process.

By introducing these new products that have achieved improved environmental performance and productivity, we were able to obtain high market share for multifunction equipment.

As for printers, we have introduced a complete new lineup of products, which are SP C831/C831M/ C830/C830M/C731/C731M/C730/C730M/C730L for color printers and SP 8300/8300M for monochrome printers. These products are equipped with a user friendly 4.3 inch full color LCD touch panel, which allows for improved visibility and operability. Furthermore, features such as printing function for mobile and other devices have been improved by connecting to a cloud computing environment.

- 12 -

In addition to this, we have also introduced our unique GELJET SG 7100 and the GELJET SG 3100SF. These compact models offers improved first print output, enhanced security features that will fit the needs of various industries and operations. Furthermore, these compact models can be used as a desktop machine in the office to achieve improved productivity at low-cost.

With regard to our other offerings, we have introduced six new projection systems (twelve models), including our desk edge / short throw projectors PJ WX3340N and PJ WX4240N. We also introduced the Interactive Whiteboard D5500 for offices and various other places, which allows users to write directly onto the display and facilitates smooth communication with remote regions. By offering solutions that take advantage of the outstanding performance of these products, we support the changing work styles of our customers, by speeding up the streamlining of collaborative work and the activation of the organization.

We expanded Managed Document Services (MDS)* and IT services that range from introduction of IT to providing solutions including security and business continuity, and supported customers in improving their productivity. Furthermore, by improving overall operations with the use of fewer resources, we have been able to achieve improved revenue growth in this market.

*	Managed Document Services (MDS)

A service which undertakes the outsourcing of customers’ document administration in order to realize cost reductions and improve productivity. This service visualizes and analyzes operations such as document creation, utilization, and storage, and proposes improvements that lead to solutions for challenges faced by our customers.

In the emerging markets, we continued to provide a strong lineup of products such as our A4 multifunction equipment along with streamlining our development and manufacturing functions to further accelerate reduction in our production costs. We have strengthened our sales channels mainly in Asia, and achieved high market share.

In production printing, we continued to press ahead with reinforcement of the design and development function through concentration of resources, as well as reorganizing and enhancing the sales service system, and strengthening the product lineup. In line with reinforcing the development of new solutions and service models linked to the “RICOH Pro series”, we invested in PTI Marketing Technologies, Inc., a printing-related software company in the United States.

With regards to new business development, we have expanded technological development and products in our industrial and consumer areas in order to provide added-value to our customers.

In the Industrial Products segment, we have continued our development of advanced devices, modules and materials based on our core optical and thermal technology. Under such development, we introduced a re-writable hybrid media that allows for images made chemically to appear or disappear through controlled application of heat. Furthermore, we have introduced a lineup of five Factory Automation (FA) cameras and fourteen lenses that can be used in manufacturing lines for inspection, pattern matching, and alignment. These products have contributed to the increased productivity and reduction of costs in our customers manufacturing facilities. With regards to our thermal media business, we are continuing to take steps to increase our presence in the global market, especially in the emerging market. In order to gain a foothold into this market, we have established a subsidiary in India.

- 13 -

As for the Consumer segment, we continue to strengthen our product lineup with the introduction of our digital compact interchangeable lens SLR camera the “PENTAX Q10” and our top of the line K series “PENTAX K-5 II” camera.

- Establish Highly Effective Management

In order to achieve stable performance and build a robust management structure for further growth under the severe economic environment, the Ricoh Group has implemented various initiatives to restructuring. This includes initiatives such as drastically reducing expenses, streamlining overlapping operations and shift of personnel to growth areas, as well as an exhaustive review of all operations. Furthermore, to enhance the global competitiveness of our engineering and manufacturing functions, we have reorganized part of our engineering and manufacturing resources relating to imaging products at production related companies, and some portion of those same resources of the Ricoh Group in Japan, and integrated them into Ricoh Technologies Co., Ltd. and Ricoh Industry Co., Ltd. on April 1, 2013.

Performance in the fiscal year under review

Net sales amounted to ¥1,924.4 billion, up 1.1% from the previous fiscal year, due to the impact of the shift to a weaker yen, and capturing demand in emerging markets including China. Gross profit increased by 2.1% year-on-year to ¥768.6 billion, due to a rise in sales and the effects of continuous cost reduction measures. The results of the Group’s united efforts for structural reform contributed to a drop in selling, general and administrative expenses, which declined 8.5% year-on-year to ¥705.1 billion, also reflecting the impact of impairment loss of goodwill and of long-lived assets posted in the previous fiscal year, as well as a decrease in structural reform cost. Consequently, operating income grew to ¥63.4 billion, a significant increase compared to the previous fiscal year, and net income attributable to Ricoh Company, Ltd. rose by ¥77.0 billion year-on-year to ¥32.4 billion.

Note:

From this fiscal year, we have changed the method of summarizing sales by region.

Middle East and Africa, which were included in Other region, have been included in Europe and changed to be presented as Europe, Middle East and Africa from the current fiscal year.

Japan (Sales down 1.8% year on year to ¥870.3 billion)

In the Japanese economy, with the prolonged appreciation of the yen, along with the continued concerns of a global economic slowdown, the economic environment remained fairly stagnant throughout the fiscal year. Since the end of last year, an upward trend such as weakening of the yen and increase of the stock prices has been seen, but the overall economic outlook still remains unpredictable. As a result, the sales in Japan decreased by 1.8% from the previous fiscal year to ¥870.3 billion.

The Americas (Sales up 5.9% year on year to ¥496.6 billion)

In the Americas, the economic situation remains unpredictable despite the gradual recovery in individual consumption and capital investment. As a result, with the contribution of weakening of the yen, overall sales increased by 5.9% compared to the previous fiscal year, to ¥496.6 billion.

Europe, Middle East and Africa (Sales up 0.1% year on year to ¥421.7 billion)

The economic situation remains uncertain due to the prolonged European debt crisis. The yen showed signs of weakness against the Euro around the end of the fiscal year, but throughout most part of the year, the yen remained strong against the Euro. As a result, the sales increased slightly by 0.1% compared to the previous fiscal year, to ¥421.7 billion.

Other (Sales up 6.9 % year on year to ¥135.7 billion)

The emerging markets including China and India are achieving strong growth, though there are signs of slowdown in growth among these countries and the rest of the emerging markets. We are strengthening the sales force mainly in the emerging markets, and as a result, overall sales in Other regions increased by 6.9% from the previous fiscal year, to ¥135.7 billion.

(2) Issues the Ricoh Group faces

Additionally, in the emerging markets with continued growth, we will increase profit through expansion of sales channels along with increasing sales through the various IT services companies acquired in the past several years. Furthermore, products and services will be developed upon the features and prices demanded in the respective markets. In addition to China, India and others, we will continue to establish our presence in markets or countries in which we can expect strong growth.

As for our Production Printing business, we will continue to enhance our product lineup. we can expect an increase in revenue from the increased print volume achieved from the sale of these products. Furthermore, we will develop business fields for commercial printing.

2. Create new profit models in current core businesses

We will constantly look to provide solutions to a wider range of issues surrounding our customers to establish an additional growth model to our existing multi-function and printer business. We will further enhance our MDS and IT Services along with strengthening our solutions for enhanced communication such as our projection system, video conference system and our interactive whiteboard solution. Additionally, by providing improved connectivity of our multi-function products and printers to smart phones and tablet PCs, we can offer more innovative work style solutions to our customers.

Especially in the area of optical systems in our Industrial Products segment, we will enhance our applied technology to develop and market new devices and modules. Furthermore, for our consumer segment, especially surrounding our digital SLR cameras, we will continue to strengthen our products and sales network to solidify our presence in this market.

5. Systems to secure appropriateness of operations

Resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors for systems to secure the appropriateness of the Company’s operations are as follows. The resolutions will be reviewed regularly on an ongoing basis in response to changes in the business environment.

Internal Control System Basic Policy

The RICOH Way, which comprises our founding principles and Management Philosophy (Mission Statement, Vision Statement and Values Statement), is the foundation of the Ricoh Group’s management policy, strategy and internal control system.

Inspired by the values incorporated in the RICOH Way, we are working to establish and implement an internal control system aimed at strengthening competitiveness and continuously improving the system while ensuring transparency based on corporate ethics and legal compliance.

(1)

System to ensure the efficient implementation of Directors’ duties and compliance with laws and Articles of Incorporation

Based on the principle of autonomous corporate governance, the Company promotes a corporate culture that values both a sense of duty to meet the various expectations of stakeholders and high ethics suited to good social conscience. At the same time, the Company strives to create a sense of alertness in management and business execution, and further enhance the quality and speediness of such functions. To this end, the Company will adopt the following management structure.

(i)	Management transparency and fairness of decision-making are strengthened by the presence of Outside Directors.

(ii)

As part of the strengthening of management oversight functions by the Board of Directors, the “Nomination and Compensation Committee”, a permanent organization composed of Outside Directors and designated internal Directors, makes proposals and resolutions concerning the regulation of the nomination, dismissal and compensation of Directors and executive officers, etc.

(iii)

The executive officer system, its division of duties clarified, speeds up the decision-making process through the attribution of authority to each business division.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

* All figures are rounded off to nearest million yen.

Accounting Policies Regarding the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements

Scope of Consolidation

The number of consolidated subsidiaries is 211 and the number of companies to which the equity method is applied is 7 in the fiscal year under review.

In addition to the above, the Company added variable interest entities to its scope of consolidation from this fiscal year.

Significant Accounting Policies

1. Basis for Preparing Consolidated Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements including consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations has been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), in compliance with Article 120(2), Paragraph 1 of the Corporate Calculation Regulations. However, in compliance with the second sentence of the paragraph, certain disclosure that is required on the basis of U.S. GAAP is omitted.

2. Accounting Policy for Securities

Accounting standards for securities conform to the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), Accounting Standards Codification TM (ASC) 320, “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities”. Ricoh’s investments in debt and marketable equity securities are mainly classified as available-for-sale securities. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of related taxes, reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

3. Accounting Policy for Inventories:

Inventories are mainly stated principally at the lower of average cost or net realizable values.

4. Depreciation method for Tangible fixed Assets:

Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over the estimated useful life. Most of the foreign subsidiaries have adopted the straight-line method for computing depreciation.

Previously, the Company and its domestic consolidated subsidiaries principally had used the declining-balance method; however, the depreciation methods were reconsidered as the structural reforms including a review of consolidation of production bases were implemented following the changes in business environment. The Company deemed the straight-line method will more accurately reflect the usage pattern of our assets, since the expected usage pattern for future economic benefit is projected to level off further in the wake of changes in our asset portfolio triggered by factors such as the recent increase in capital investment relating to new manufacturing technologies. As a result, the Company and its domestic consolidated subsidiaries changed their depreciation method for tangible fixed assets to straight-line method from April 1, 2012.

This change is to be recognized for the years to come as a change in accounting estimates under ASC 250 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”. The change has no material impact on the consolidated financial statements for fiscal year ended March 31, 2013.

- 42 -

5. Depreciation method for Software for Internal Use:

Costs incurred for computer software developed or obtained for internal use are capitalized and amortized on a straight line basis over generally 3 to 10 years in accordance with ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”.

6. Goodwill and Other Intangible Fixed Assets:

Goodwill and intangible fixed assets that have indefinite useful lives are not amortized based on ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. The Company conducts annual tests for impairment based on the same ASC. Other intangible fixed assets that have definite useful lives are depreciated by using the straight-line method.

7. Basis for Provision of Reserves

(1) Allowance for doubtful receivables:

Ricoh records allowances for doubtful receivables that are based upon historical experience and specific customer collection issues. The estimated amount of probable credit losses in its existing receivables is determined from write-off history adjusted to reflect current economic conditions and specific allowances for receivables including nonperforming leases, impaired loans or other accounts for which Ricoh has concluded it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to original terms of the lease or loan agreement.

(2) Reserve for retirement allowances:

The measurement of pension costs and liabilities is determined in accordance with ASC 715, “Retirement Benefits”. Changes in the amount of either the projected benefit obligation or plan assets resulting from actual results different from that assumed and from changes in assumptions are recognized in the consolidated balance sheets, and the corresponding adjustments, after tax effects are considered, are posted as other accumulated comprehensive income (loss). Actuarial net loss is amortized by straight-line amortization over the average remaining service period of active employees and included in the net periodic benefit plan cost for a year, if, as of the beginning of the year, that net gain or loss exceeds 10 percent of the greater of (1) the projected benefit obligation or (2) the fair value of that plan’s assets.

- 43 -

8. The consumption tax and the local consumption tax are excluded from profits and losses.

Notes to Consolidated Balance Sheets, etc.

1.	Allowance for doubtful receivables related to current maturities of long-term finance receivables, net and long-term finance receivables:


	¥	10,249 million

(1) Current maturities of long-term finance receivables, net:	¥	3,865 million
(2) Long-term finance receivables:	¥	6,384 million

(1) Pledged assets:
Property, plant and equipment:	¥	84 million
Long-term finance receivables, net:	¥	230 million
(2) Pledged liabilities	¥	222 million

4.	Matters related to transfers of financial assets

Subsidiaries of the Company conduct the transfer of long-term finance receivables, net to SPE and others. The transfer that does not satisfy requirements for being treated as the sale of financial assets is accounted for as secured borrowing.

With respect to the aforementioned accounting treatment, the consolidated balance sheets include the following assets and liabilities:


Current maturities of long-term finance receivables, net:	¥	13,782 million
Long-term finance receivables, net:	¥	30,017 million

Notes to Consolidated Statements of Operations

Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company recorded ¥1,379 million of impairment loss for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013. The impairment loss is included in cost of sales, and selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

The major loss is related to some of the idle assets (land, buildings, etc.) such as business offices, at ¥903 million. As recovery of investment becomes unlikely, we have reduced such value down to recoverable value based on real estate appraisal, etc. and posted as impairment loss.

Notes to Financial Instruments

1.	Matters concerning the state of financial instruments

Risk management policy

Ricoh enters into various derivative financial instrument contracts in the normal course of business in connection with the management of its assets and liabilities. Ricoh uses derivative instruments to reduce risk and protect market value of assets and liabilities in conformity with Ricoh’s policy. Ricoh does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes, nor is it a party to leveraged derivatives.

All derivative instruments are exposed to credit risk arising from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the derivative contracts. However, Ricoh does not expect any counterparties to fail to meet their obligations because these counterparties are financial institutions with satisfactory credit ratings. Ricoh utilizes a number of counterparties to minimize the concentration of credit risk.

Foreign Exchange Risk Management

Ricoh conducts business on a global basis and holds assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Ricoh enters into foreign exchange contracts and foreign currency options to hedge against the potentially adverse impacts of foreign currency fluctuations on those assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies.

Interest Rate Risk Management

Ricoh enters into interest rate swap agreements (including interest rate and currency swap agreements) to hedge against the potential adverse impacts of changes in fair value or cash flow fluctuations on interest of its outstanding debt.

- 45 -

2.	Matters concerning fair value of financial instruments

(1)

Cash and cash equivalents, Time deposits, Trade receivables, Trade payables, Short-term borrowings, Current maturities of long-term indebtedness, and Accrued expenses

The carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturities of these instruments.

(2)

Investment securities

The fair value of the investment securities is principally based on quoted market price.

As a non-marketable security has no published market price and each security has distinctive attributes, the estimation of fair value could not be conducted without entailing considerable cost.

The book value of non-marketable securities as of March 31, 2013 was ¥1,783 million.

Investment securities whose fair values are recognized to be extremely difficult to grasp, are not included in the following table.

(3)

Installment loans

The fair value of installment loans is based on the present value of future cash flows using the current interest rate for similar instruments of comparable maturity.

(4)

Long-term indebtedness

The fair value of each of the long-term indebtedness instruments is based on the present value of future cash flows associated with each instrument discounted using the current borrowing rate for similar instruments of comparable maturity.

(5)

Interest rate swap (including interest rate and currency swap)

The fair value of interest rate swap agreements is calculated on the basis of estimates obtained from financial institutions and appropriate valuation methods based on available information.

(6)

Foreign currency contracts

The fair value of foreign currency contracts is calculated on the basis of estimates obtained from financial institutions and appropriate valuation methods based on available information.

(7)

Foreign currency options

The fair value of foreign currency options is calculated on the basis of estimates obtained from financial institutions and appropriate valuation methods based on available information.

- 46 -

The consolidated balance sheet amounts and fair values of financial instruments as of March 31, 2013, are as follows:

(Unit: millions of yen)


	Balance sheet amount			Estimated fair value
Investment securities		52,319			52,319
Installment loans		89,657			90,655
Long-term indebtedness		476,381			475,018
Interest rate swap agreements, net		(1,404	)		(1,404	)
Foreign currency contracts, net		(19,917	)		(19,917	)
Foreign currency options, net		84			84

*	Assumptions for estimated fair value

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on available market information and information about respective financial instruments. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment. Therefore, the estimated fair value may be significantly influenced by changes in those assumptions.

Notes to Non-consolidated Financial Statements

* All figures are rounded down to nearest million yen.

Notes Regarding Significant Accounting Policies

1.	Accounting Policy for Securities

(1)

Securities of subsidiaries and affiliates

Securities of subsidiaries and affiliates are stated at cost based on the moving average method.

(2)

Other securities


Marketable securities:		Marked to market based on the market price at the end of the term and other factors (accounting for all valuation differences with the full net-assets injection method; the cost of securities sold is valued at moving average cost).

Non-marketable securities:		Stated at cost based on the moving average method.

2. Accounting Policy for Derivatives

Derivatives are stated at market value.

3. Accounting Policy for Inventories

Inventories are stated principally at cost using the gross average method (the amounts on the balance-sheets are stated based on the method of devaluing book values by lowered profitability).

4. Depreciation and Amortization

(1)

Tangible fixed assets (excluding leased assets):

Depreciated by using the straight-line method. Major useful life is as follows:


Buildings:			5-50 years
Machinery and equipment:			4-12 years

Change in Accounting Policy

The Company has changed the depreciation method for tangible fixed assets from the declining-balance method which was mainly used to the straight-line method beginning this fiscal year and will use this method going forward. The Company deemed the change preferable as the straight-line method deemed more accurately reflect the usage pattern of our assets, since the expected usage pattern for future economic benefit is projected to level off further in the wake of changes in our asset portfolio triggered by factors such as the recent increase in capital investment relating to new manufacturing technologies. As a result, operating loss decreased by ¥7,669 million and ordinary income and income before income taxes increased by ¥7,669 million respectively, compared to the amount calculated by using the conventional method.

(2) Intangible fixed assets (excluding leased assets):

Depreciated by using the straight-line method.

With software for sale in the market, however, the Company records the larger of an amortization based on projected sales profits or a uniform amortization based on a projected effective sales period for the balance. The initially projected effective sales term is 3 years. With software for internal use, the Company uses the straight-line method based on a usable period of 3 to 10 years.

Goodwill is amortized using the straight-line method over the period of investment effect (16 years).

- 52 -

(3) Leased assets

Finance leases for which ownership does not transfer to lessees;

Ricoh uses straight-line depreciation for Leased assets regarding Lease-term as useful life.

In addition, with regards to Lease contracts on or before March 31, 2008, Ricoh uses accounting similar to the accounting treatment for ordinary sale and purchase transactions.

5. Basis for Provision of Reserves

(1) Allowance for doubtful accounts:

The allowance for doubtful accounts is provided to cover possible losses from bad debts and represents possible individual doubtful accounts based on historical default rates and the potential for irrecoverableness.

(2) Accrued bonuses:

The reserve for accrued bonuses is provided by estimating the amount of bonuses payable to employees for the current financial year under our corporate rules for calculating such bonus payment.

(3) Accrued Directors’ bonuses:

The reserve for accrued bonuses is provided by estimating the amount of bonuses payable to Directors for the current financial year.

(4) Warranty reserve:

To cover product after-sales service expenses, the Company calculates the product warranty reserve based on projected service costs.

(5) Retirement benefit obligation:

To cover projected employee benefits, the Company records the estimated obligations at the end of current fiscal year based on projected year-end benefit obligations and plan assets. For actuarial gains or losses and for prior service costs, the Company uses straight-line amortization over a certain period of time (15 years) within averaged remaining employment term as incurred in each business year starting from the year following the year of occurrence. For past service liability (PSL) the Company uses straight-line amortization over a certain period of time (15 years) within averaged remaining employment term as incurred in each business year.

6. Consumption Taxes

The consumption tax and the local consumption tax are excluded from profits and losses.

7. Application of Consolidated Taxation System

From the previous fiscal year, the Company has adopted consolidated taxation system with the Company being the consolidated parent company.

- 53 -

8. Hedge Accounting

(1) Hedge accounting methods:

With interest-rate swaps, the Company hedges by assigning transactions that meet assignment requirements.

(2) Hedge instruments and targets:


Hedging Instruments:		Interest swaps
Hedged items:		Interests of long-term borrowings

(3) Hedging policies:

In keeping with its internal Market Risk Management Rules, Ricoh uses derivatives to manage the exposure of its assets and liabilities to market fluctuations.

(4) Hedge effectiveness:

The Company assesses the effectiveness of hedges by analyzing the ratios of the total market fluctuations of hedged targets and instruments. Interest rate swaps, which the Company hedges by assigning transactions that meet assignment requirements, are exempt.

9. Accounting procedures for term-end matured bills

Term-end matured bills are recorded on their clearing dates. As the term-end date for the fiscal year under review was a bank holiday, the following term-end matured bills were included in the amount of balance at March 31, 2013.

We have audited the consolidated financial statements, comprising the consolidated balance sheets, the consolidated statements of operations, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the notes to consolidated financial statement of Ricoh Company, Ltd as at March 31, 2013 and for the year from April 1, 2012 to March 31, 2013 in accordance with Article 444-4 of the Companies Act.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the second sentence of Article 120-2-1 of the Ordinance of Companies Accounting that prescribes some omissions of disclosure items required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatements, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

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

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, while the objective of the financial statement audit is not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above, which were prepared in accordance with the second sentence of Article 120-2-1 of the Ordinance of Companies Accounting that prescribes some omissions of disclosure items required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and the results of operations of Ricoh Company, Ltd. and its consolidated subsidiaries for the period, for which the consolidated financial statements were prepared.

Emphasis of Matter

As stated in Significant Accounting Policies 4. of the notes to consolidated financial statements, Ricoh Company, Ltd. and its domestic consolidated subsidiaries changed their depreciation method for tangible fixed assets mainly from declining-balance method to straight-line method, effective April 1, 2012.
