1. BUSINESS RESULTS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PROSPECTS
(1) Business Results for the Nine Months Ended December 31, 2012
Economic Situation and Business Environment
During the nine months ended December 31, 2012 (the nine months), despite increases in personal consumption and public investment, the economic environment in Japan weakened from the three months ended December 31, 2012 as a slowdown in overseas economies led to sluggish growth in exports. With respect to the overseas economic environment, the U.S. economy expanded moderately on the back of growth in personal consumption and recovery in housing investment. On the other hand, the European economy remained in a recessionary phase due to the impact of the financial crisis. Slowdown in the Chinese economy intensified due mainly to weakening exports.
The digital consumer equipment market, which is the principal market for Kyocera Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (Kyocera Group or Kyocera), was slow overall as shipment volume declined for conventional mobile phone handsets, PCs and flat-screen TVs despite growing demand for smartphones and tablet PCs compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2011 (the previous nine months). In contrast, demand for solar power generation systems increased rapidly in the solar energy market in Japan due to the introduction of the feed-in tariff for renewable energy in July 2012.
Consolidated Financial Results
Average exchange rates for the nine months were ¥80 to the U.S. dollar, marking depreciation of ¥1 (approximately 1%) from ¥79 for the previous nine months, and ¥102 to the Euro, marking appreciation of ¥9 (approximately 8%) from ¥111 for the previous nine months. As a result of the effect of currency exchange rate fluctuations, net sales and income before income taxes for the nine months were pushed down by approximately ¥5 billion and ¥4 billion, respectively, compared with the previous nine months.
Despite continued harsh conditions in Kyoceras business environment, characterized in particular by the impact of the currency fluctuations and sluggish growth in component demand, sales increased in the Semiconductor Parts Group and the Applied Ceramic Products Group. In addition, subsidiaries newly consolidated in the previous year ended March 31, 2012, provided a contribution. As a result, consolidated net sales for the nine months increased by ¥41,135 million, or 4.6%, to ¥926,524 million, compared with ¥885,389 million for the previous nine months.
Profit decreased compared with the previous nine months due primarily to the recording at AVX Corporation, a U.S. subsidiary, of a charge of ¥21.3 billion for environmental remediation in New Bedford Harbor, Massachusetts in the U.S. coupled with price erosion in electronic components and the impact of the currency fluctuations. Profit from operations decreased by ¥37,139 million, or 42.0%, to ¥51,234 million, compared with ¥88,373 million for the previous nine months. Income before income taxes decreased by ¥33,722 million, or 32.9%, to ¥68,882 million, compared with ¥102,604 million for the previous nine months, and net income attributable to shareholders of Kyocera Corporation decreased by ¥27,140 million, or 37.6%, to ¥44,970 million, compared with ¥72,110 million for the previous nine months.

Consolidated Results by Reporting Segment
1) Fine Ceramic Parts Group
Component demand was down compared with the previous nine months in the industrial machinery market, including for semiconductor fabrication equipment, and in the digital consumer equipment market. As a result, sales and operating profit in this reporting segment decreased compared with the previous nine months.
2) Semiconductor Parts Group
Sales and operating profit in this reporting segment increased compared with the previous nine months due to growth in demand for ceramic packages primarily for smartphones.
3) Applied Ceramic Products Group
Sales in this reporting segment increased compared with the previous nine months due to sales growth in the solar energy business supported by growing demand in Japan as well as sales growth in the cutting tool business. Operating profit increased significantly due to increased sales and cost reductions in the solar energy business.
4) Electronic Device Group
Sales in this reporting segment increased compared with the previous nine months due to sales contribution from Kyocera Display Corporation. An operating loss was recorded, however, due primarily to the recording of the environmental remediation charge at AVX Corporation.
5) Telecommunications Equipment Group
Despite strong sales of smartphones in Japan and overseas, sales in this reporting segment decreased compared with the previous nine months due to a decline in sales of conventional mobile phone handsets in Japan. Operating profit increased compared with the previous nine months, however, due to an improvement in profitability in overseas business.
6) Information Equipment Group
Sales in this reporting segment decreased slightly compared with the previous nine months due to the impact of the yens appreciation against the Euro despite an increase in sales in key markets overseas on a local currency basis which resulted from new product introductions and vigorous sales expansion activities. Operating profit decreased compared with the previous nine months due mainly to the impact of the yens appreciation against the Euro.
7) Others
Sales and operating profit in this reporting segment increased compared with the previous nine months due primarily to an increase in sales at Kyocera Communication Systems Co., Ltd.

(2) Consolidated Financial Condition
Consolidated Cash Flows
Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2012 increased by ¥28,105 million to ¥301,393 million from ¥273,288 million at March 31, 2012.
1) Cash flows from operating activities
Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months increased by ¥26,881 million to ¥89,095 million from ¥62,214 million for the previous nine months. This was due mainly to cash flow adjustments related to receivables, inventories and other non-current liabilities which exceeded a significant decrease in net income.
2) Cash flows from investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months increased by ¥3,167 million to ¥42,346 million from ¥39,179 million for the previous nine months. This was due mainly to that an increase in payment for purchase of available-for-sale securities in addition to decreases in withdrawal of time deposits and certificate of deposits and in proceeds from sales and maturities of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities exceeded decreases in acquisitions of time deposits and certificate of deposits and in payment for held-to-maturity securities as well as decreases in acquisitions of business and in payment for purchases of property, plant and equipment.
3) Cash flows from financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months decreased by ¥5,279 million to ¥28,156 million from ¥33,435 million for the previous nine months. This was due mainly to decreases in payments of short-term borrowings and long-term debts as well as a decrease in dividends paid.

(3) AVX Corporation Reached Settlement with the Environmental Protection Agency and Commonwealth of Massachusetts regarding the New Bedford Harbor Superfund Site
On October 10, 2012, AVX Corporation (AVX), a consolidated subsidiary of Kyocera Corporation in the United States, and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced that they had reached a financial settlement with respect to the EPAs ongoing clean up of the New Bedford Harbor Superfund site in New Bedford, Massachusetts.
AVXs involvement in this site arose from the operations of an alleged legal predecessor, Aerovox Corporation, which produced liquid filled capacitors adjacent to the harbor from the late 1930s through the early 1970s. Subsequent owners of the facility are dissolved or in bankruptcy. AVX itself never produced this type of capacitor, nor does it do so today.
Following legal action brought in 1983, AVX reached a settlement agreement with the United States and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts with respect to their claims relating to harbor clean up and alleged natural resource damages in 1992. That agreement was contained in a Consent Decree whereby AVX paid $72 million, including interest, toward the harbor clean up and natural resource damages. That agreement included reopener provisions allowing the EPA to institute new proceedings against AVX, including the right to seek to have AVX perform or pay for additional clean up under certain circumstances.
On April 18, 2012, the EPA issued to AVX a Unilateral Administrative Order directing AVX to perform the remainder of the harbor clean up, invoking the clean up reopeners described above.
After settlement negotiations, including mediation, between the parties, the current proposed agreement with the EPA and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts was reached whereby AVX will pay $366 million, plus interest computed from August 1, 2012, in three installments over a two-year period for use by the EPA and the Commonwealth to complete the clean up of the harbor, and the EPA will withdraw the Unilateral Administrative Order.
The recent proposed agreement is contained in a Supplemental Consent Decree that modifies certain provisions of the 1992 Consent Decree, including elimination of the governments right to invoke the clean up reopener provisions in the future. The EPA filed the Supplemental Consent Decree in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts on October 10, 2012. A public comment period ended on December 17, 2012 and currently the EPA and the Commonwealth are reviewing the public comments and formulating responses. The settlement requires approval by the United States District Court before becoming final.
AVX recorded a charge of ¥21,300 million ($266 million) with respect to this matter for the nine months ended December 31, 2012 in addition to a charge of ¥7,900 million ($100 million) recorded in the year ended March 31, 2012. Kyocera included this charge in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of income for the nine months ended December 31, 2012.

(4) Consolidated Financial Forecasts for the Year Ending March 31, 2013
During the three months ended December 31, 2012, component demand was sluggish and fell short of projections in the digital consumer equipment market, as well as in the general industrial machinery market.
In the three months ending March 31, 2013, it is expected that overall demand in the digital consumer equipment market will be lower than the expectation in October 2012, although sales in the solar energy business in Japan will grow significantly.
Based on this expectation, Kyocera has revised its financial forecasts for the year ending March 31, 2013 announced on October 31, 2012, as set forth below and has also revised its segment forecasts, as set forth on the following page.
Kyocera has also revised its forecast of average exchange rates in the three months ending March 31, 2013 from the projections announced on October 31, 2012, from ¥79 to ¥88 against the U.S. dollar and from ¥101 to ¥118 against the Euro. As a result, the full-year forecast of average exchange rates for the year ending March 31, 2013 has been revised to ¥82 to the U.S. dollar and ¥106 to the Euro.

These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. Such risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to the following:
(1) | General economic conditions in our markets, which are primarily Japan, North America, Europe and Asia; |
(2) | Economic, political and legal conditions and unexpected changes therein in countries or areas where we operate; |
(3) | Factors that may affect our exports, including the yens appreciation, political and economic instability, customs, and inadequate protection of our intellectual property; |
(4) | Fluctuation in exchange rates that may affect the value of our foreign assets or the prices of our products; |
(5) | Intensified competition in product pricing, technological innovation, R&D activities, product quality and speed of delivery; |
(6) | Manufacturing delays or defects resulting from outsourcing or internal manufacturing processes; |
(7) | Shortages and rising costs of electricity affecting our production and sales activities; |
(8) | The possibility that expansion of production capacity and in-process R&D activities may not produce the desired results; |
(9) | The possibility that companies or assets acquired by us may not produce the returns or benefits, or bring in business opportunities, which we expect; |
(10) | Inability to secure skilled employees, particularly engineering and technical personnel; |
(11) | The possibility of divulgence of our trade secrets and infringement of our intellectual property rights; |
(12) | The possibility that we may receive notice of claims of infringement of other parties intellectual property rights and claims for royalty payments; |
(13) | Increases in our environmental liability and in costs and expenses required to observe obligations imposed by environmental laws and regulations in Japan and other countries; |

2. OTHER INFORMATION
Changes in accounting policies
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
On April 1, 2012, Kyocera adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)s Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income and ASU No. 2011-12, Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05. ASU No. 2011-05 requires entities to present net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. It eliminates the current option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. ASU No. 2011-05 also requires reclassification adjustments and the effect of those adjustments on net income and other comprehensive income to be disclosed on the face of financial statements, however, the effective date of this requirement is deferred indefinitely by ASU No. 2011-12. As these accounting standards are a provision for presentation, the adoption of these accounting standards did not have an impact on Kyoceras consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
On April 1, 2012, Kyocera adopted the FASBs ASU No. 2011-08, Testing Goodwill for Impairment. This accounting standard permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. As this accounting standard does not actually change how the impairment would be calculated, the adoption of this accounting standard did not have an impact on Kyoceras consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
