Corporate Transformation Target for FY2010 and Thereafter

To be a Company That Secures Profits and Constant Growth in a Severe Environment

In the late fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, triggered by the worldwide financial crisis, the economic environment abruptly changed causing global demand contraction and appreciation of the yen. Being affected seriously by such changes, Fujifilm's entire business, which had achieved its highest sales and operating income in the previous fiscal year, experienced a drastic downturn.

The economy is expected to remain severely depressed for some time to come. However, in order to secure our constant growth even in such an environment, Fujifilm is determined to rapidly build a robust corporate constitution and reconstruct growth strategies in the business fields where the market is expected to further expand.

Streamlining and Strengthening Companywide Functions

From fiscal year ending March 31, 2010, Fujifilm will implement structural reforms without hesitation and conduct stringent cost and expense reduction throughout the company. Through these measures, Fujifilm aims to reduce fixed costs and increase turnover of assets on a large scale.
