Industry Trends and ACOM’s Initiatives >
April 2003-March 2005———Japan’s consumer finance industry was born
in the 1960s after a period of high-level eco-nomic growth. Thereafter, the market grewsignificantly, to around ¥12 trillion at its peak.During that time, ACOM became one of theindustry leaders, with a market share of about16% in its core loan business. To further expe-dite growth, the ACOM Group also activelyadvanced its diversified financial services busi-ness and its overseas operations.

April 2005-March 2010———Requirements were made stricter for the application of “constructive repayment” following a
Supreme Court ruling on January 13, 2006. As a result, requests for interest repayment rosesharply. Seeking to solve multiple debts problems, the government revised the Money LendingBusiness Act in December 2006 (with full enforcement on June 18, 2010), reducing the maximuminterest rate on loans and placing restrictions on total loan amounts to each borrower. To addressthese changes, ACOM in November 2006 announced its “Group Management Reform” aimedat dramatically reducing operating costs through March 2011. We also acted swiftly, ahead ofthe full enforcement of the revised Money Lending Business Act, to reduce our maximum inter-est rate while adopting more stringent lending criteria in order to improve the quality of ourcredit portfolio. Due to the unprecedented severity of the operating environment, however, inNovember 2009 we announced our “Strengthening Business Management Policy” on the prem-ise of further cuts in operating costs. Since then, we have launched new initiatives in this area.

Fiscal 2009 Performance
In fiscal 2009, ended March 31, 2010, the ACOM Group’s operating environment continued to increase in severity due to various fac-
tors. These included shrinkage of the consumer credit market and falling profitability amid the incremental enactment of the revised
Money Lending Business Act, together with ongoing requests for interest repayments, which placed direct pressure on management.
Impacted by these factors, the ACOM Group posted a 14.1% year-on-year decline in consolidated operating revenue, to
¥278.7 billion. This was due to a decrease in the balance of accounts receivable-operating loans and a fall in average loan yield
during the year. Despite additional provision for loss on interest repayment and an increase in provision of allowance for
doubtful accounts, operating expenses were down 7.1%, to ¥272.7 billion, reflecting the effects of cuts in operating costs.
Accordingly, operating income fell 80.3%, to ¥6.0 billion. In other items, the Group reported an extraordinary loss in the form
of business structure improvement expenses aimed at further strengthening its business management. This resulted in a net loss
of ¥7.2 billion, a deterioration of ¥20.9 billion from the previous fiscal year.
Return to Shareholders
With respect to shareholder return, our basic policy is to return profits in a steady and consistent manner, with due consideration to the
Group’s business performance, shareholders’ equity, and economic and financial conditions. Based on this policy, we declared a year-end
dividend of ¥5.00 per share. Combined with the ¥5.00 interim dividend already paid, this brings annual dividends to ¥10.00 per share.
Further Reinforcement of Business Management
From an early stage, the ACOM Group envisaged the impact of falling balance of accounts receivable-operating loans and
Message from the Management
In our relentless quest to seize the No.1 share of the personal
loan market, we will respond appropriately to changing
business conditions and embrace the challenge of trans-
forming our business model in our closer alliance with the
MUFG Group, guided by our “Strengthening Business
Management Policy.”

declining average loan yield caused by the revised Money Lending Business Act. Accordingly, in November 2006 we
announced our “Group Management Reform” set for completion in the year ending March 2011, and worked on reforming
our cost structure. Thanks to these efforts, we reached our operating cost reduction target of ¥40.0 billion in fiscal 2009—one
year ahead of schedule.
In addition, we further strengthened our internal control framework ahead of the full enforcement of the revised Money
Lending Business Act, and in June 2007 we expedited reductions on the maximum interest rates on our loans. In these and
other ways, we worked swiftly to address the changing operating environment.
Due to the ongoing high level of requests for interest repayment and a declining balance of accounts receivable-operating
loans, however, business conditions surrounding the ACOM Group have become more difficult than in November 2006,
when the “Group Management Reform” was formulated.
Responding to these circumstances, in November 2009 we announced our “Strengthening Business Management Policy,” a
set of management reinforcement measures. Under this policy, we will strive to reduce operating costs to ¥60.0 billion by the
year ending March 2012, or ¥32.1 billion lower than the year ended March 2009. At the same time, we will reorganize our
office network, enhance personnel efficiency, and otherwise implement drastic reductions to our operating costs.
Progress of Business Alliance with the MUFG Group
We continue to make steady progress with functional reorganization and efficiency enhancement measures involved in making
ACOM the core consumer finance company in Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. (“MUFG”).
In the year under review, we transferred the credit card guarantee business of DC Cash One Ltd. (“DCC1”), then a consoli-
dated subsidiary, to Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS Co., Ltd. (“Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS”), and integrated DCC1’s loan business into
ACOM. At the same time, RELATES CO., LTD. (“RELATES”), a consolidated subsidiary that is entrusted with call center
functions, was merged into MU Communications Co., Ltd. (“MU Communications”), the call center arm of The Bank of
Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd. (“BTMU”) In addition, ACOM took over the unsecured card loan guarantee business of
Mitsubishi UFJ Home Loan Credit Co., Ltd. (“Mitsubishi UFJ Home Loan Credit”) ACOM is also scheduled to take over the
unsecured card loan guarantee business of Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS in October 2010.
Outlook for Fiscal 2010
Although requests for interest repayment remain at high levels, the trend began showing negative year-on-year growth in
November 2009, and the magnitude of declines has gradually widened in the subsequent months. However, the situation
remains unpredictable since the economic outlook is unclear, and at fiscal year-end 55.6% of customers subject to borrowing
restrictions had loans exceeding one-third of their annual income. With the loan business facing so many uncertainties, there-
6
fore, it is extremely difficult to make predictions about the year ending March 2011. At the present time, however, we forecast
a 12.5% year-on-year decrease in consolidated operating revenue, to ¥243.9 billion, in light of the declining balance of
accounts receivable-operating loans and falling average loan yield. Moreover, we forecast a 22.4% decline in operating expenses,
to ¥211.7 billion, taking into consideration rising interest rates on fund procurement, provision of allowance for doubtful
accounts and provision for loss on interest repayment we plan to make based on our financial performance in the year under
review, as well as reduction in operating costs. As a result, we project a 431.1% surge in operating income, to ¥32.2 billion, and
net income of ¥26.2 billion.
ACOM Group’s Management Vision
Fiscal 2010, ending March 31, 2011, is the first year of the ACOM Group’s new medium-term business plan, the five year
management vision of which is to “aim to become the ‘leading company’ which provides the greatest satisfaction to as many cus-
tomers as possible and wins the trust of the personal loan market.” This management vision embodies three key points based
on the “sphere of trust” spirit maintained since our foundation, which forms the basis for our Group-wide corporate activities,
the three words—Affection, Confidence, Moderation—that constitute the ACOM acronym, and our corporate philosophy.
Three Points Embodied in Management Vision
• Ensure commitment of each and every Group employee to “maximize satisfaction for as many customers as possible” as
reflected in our belief that customers lie at the heart of business and our corporate philosophy of “putting the customer first.”
• Concentrate managerial resources with a focus on the personal loan market—the market for lending money to individuals,
and the market for providing guarantees for such loans—regardless of service category (specialized consumer financing,
installment sales finance, credit card, banking).
• Establish a powerful brand by stepping up efforts to “foster brand image of reliability and trust” and become recognized as a
“leading company trusted by society.”
Guided by this management vision, we will respond appropriately to changing business conditions and embrace the chal-
lenge of transforming our business model, in our relentless quest to seize the No.1 share of the personal loan market. We look
forward to your ongoing and renewed support for these endeavors.

Amid the full enforcement of the revised Money Lending Business Act, ACOM is stepping up its pursuit of management rein-
forcement measures. At the same time, we are expediting our “selection and concentration” strategy under our alliance with the
MUFG Group, in our quest to become the leading company in the personal loan market.
Impact of Revised Money Lending Business Act
The revised Money Lending Business Act was fully enacted on June 18, 2010. This marks the introduction of restrictions on loan vol-
umes provided by money lenders. For loan applications exceeding ¥500,000 (to a single money lender) or ¥1 million (total loans), the
lender must now obtain documented proof of income from the borrower. Moreover, loans exceeding one-third of the borrower’s
annual income are now prohibited.
The impact of the revised Money Lending Business Act has been felt for some time—since its enactment were announced in
December 2006. In fact, the effects have spread beyond the consumer finance industry to include the credit card and install-
ment sales finance sectors, which have suffered declining loan balances and profitability, as well as the inevitable restructuring
of the industry.
More than Half of Borrowers Affected
In April 2010, the Japan Financial Services Association released its report on a survey it conducted related to recognition of the
revised Money Lending Business Act. According to the report, 51.2% of consumer finance customers had borrowings exceeding one-
third of their annual income. In other words, the survey reveals that more than half of customers will be unable to obtain additional
financing once the revised law is fully enforced.

The survey report also gave a breakdown of borrowers subject to restrictions by annual income: ¥3 million or less (67.6%), ¥3.01
million-¥5 million (43.4%), ¥5.01 million-¥7 million (42.3%), and ¥7.01 million or more (36.4%). This shows that the restrictions
have a greater impact on those in the lower-income brackets. Moreover, 77.3% of those subject to restrictions responded that they
had not planned to confine their borrowings to less than one-third of their annual income.
With the full enforcement of the revised Money Lending Business Act, the lending ratio for unsecured loan applications has been
declining, caused inevitable shrinkage in loan balances. At the present time, moreover, it is hard to predict the behavior of borrowers
who have trouble making loan repayments due to the aforementioned restrictions on loan volumes.
Concentrating Business Resources on Personal Loan Market
However, the social need for speedy and convenient financing services, collateralized on consumer trust, will not disappear. While
customers subject to total loan volume restrictions may be unable to obtain additional financing, 51% of them indicated that they
would require new borrowings to maintain their future lifestyles. Meeting the needs of such people requires advanced lending know-
how based on a record of transactions over many years.
In this context, ACOM reduced its maximum loan interest rate and expedited actions to build a rock-solid business foundation
capable of withstanding market contraction due to total loan restrictions. We are also pursuing a selection and concentration strategy
in areas where we can demonstrate our strength in credit screening know-how. We have identified the “personal loan market” as the
target for our services. This consists of the “market for lending money to individuals” and the “market for providing guarantees for
such loans” and does not focus on any particular category, such as specialized consumer financing, installment sales finance, credit
card, and banking. ACOM is concentrating its business resources on this key market in its role as the core consumer finance company
of the MUFG Group.

ACOM’s Target: Personal Loan Market
Japan’s private-sector financial institutions are generally classified into two groups: banks (which lend money and accept
deposits) and non-banks (which do not accept deposits but provide financing to individuals and companies). The non-bank sec-
tor includes a multitude of subcategories, such as loan companies, installment sales finance companies, credit card companies,
and leasing companies.
The consumer credit sector, which extends loans and credit mainly to individuals, is classified into two subsectors: (1) sales credit,
where companies pay vendors for product and service purchases on behalf of the consumer; and (2) consumer finance, where compa-
nies provide direct financing. Included within consumer finance is the consumer loan market segment, which excludes loans secured
by savings and deposits or personal property (handled by private-sector financial institutions and post offices). This market segment
has a broad range of participants, including banks and nonbanks.
ACOM regards the consumer loan market as the target for both of its loan and guarantee businesses, defining it as the personal
loan market. Our medium-term vision is to obtain the No.1 share of the market in total balance of unsecured loan receivables and
guaranteed receivables combined.
Management Reinforcement Measures: Major Hurdles
The ACOM Group was quick to envisage that the revised Money Lending Business Act would lead to declines in the balance of
accounts receivable-operating loans and average loan yield. For this reason, in November 2006 we announced our “Group
Management Reform” set for completion in the year ending March 2011, and have been working to reform our cost structure. Thanks
to these efforts, we reached our operating cost reduction target of ¥40.0 billion in fiscal 2009—one year ahead of schedule.

However, business conditions have since become more severe than in November 2006, and are expected to get even worse in the
future. In November 2009, therefore, realizing that we would achieve our operating cost reduction target at an early stage, we formu-
lated a new set of management reinforcement measures. Under these measures, we will strive to reduce operating costs to ¥60.0 bil-
lion or less by the year ending March 2012. To achieve this, we will reorganize our office network, enhance personnel efficiency, and
otherwise reduce costs through drastic reassessments focusing on cost-benefit analysis.
Among measures to enhance personnel efficiency, we have created a voluntary retirement program targeting 550 employees, 446 of
whom are now confirmed. Adding 182 employees who have retired in connection with consolidation of our outlets, we have reduced
our full-time workforce by 628.
Under our office network reorganization, we reduced the number of staffed outlets from 118 to 45, concentrated operating centers
from 4 to 2, and unstaffed outlets from 1,489 to 1,308 as compared to March 31, 2009. By March 31, 2011, we plan to reorganize
unstaffed outlets into 1,200.
Other operating cost reductions include computer expenses (down ¥3.4 billion), advertising expenses (down ¥1.7 billion), and oth-
ers (down ¥2.6 billion), for a total reduction of ¥7.7 billion from the previous fiscal year. In the year ended March 2010, we lowered
total operating costs by ¥9.6 billion, to ¥82.4 billion.
In the fiscal year ending March 2011, we expect to see further benefits from cost-cutting measures implemented so far, including
office network reorganization and personnel efficiency enhancement. Accordingly, we forecast a further ¥7.1 billion reduction in total
operating costs for the year, to ¥75.3 billion. This will include a ¥4.9 billion decline in personnel expenses and a ¥1.2 billion decrease
in office expenses.

ACOM Becomes Consolidated MUFG Subsidiary and Expedites Selection and Concentration Strategy
ACOM is committed to building a consumer finance business with an overwhelming competitive edge. Similarly, MUFG is committed
to fostering its consumer finance business as a growth area. Accordingly, ACOM, MUFG, and BTMU reached an agreement in
September 2008 to make ACOM the core consumer finance arm of the MUFG Group—thus further reinforcing the strategic busi-
ness and capital alliance between ACOM and MUFG in the retail sector, formed back in March 2004. ACOM consequently became
a consolidated subsidiary of MUFG in December 2008 while maintaining its independence. Since then, we have focused our business
resources on three businesses—unsecured loans, guarantee, and loan servicing—with the aim of strengthening operational efficiency
and boosting profitability.
ACOM Takes Over Unsecured Card Loan Guarantee Business
In the guarantee business, where major future growth is expected, the MUFG Group is taking steps to reorganize its functions and
enhance efficiency. These include expediting ACOM’s takeover of MUFG’s unsecured card loan guarantee business.
In the year ended March 2010, ACOM took over the unsecured card loan guarantee business of Mitsubishi UFJ Home Loan
Credit. We have also worked to increase guaranteed receivables, including by supporting sales promotion activities for loan products
offered by existing alliance partners, centering on BANQUIC, an unsecured card loan offered by BTMU. As a result, ACOM’s
guaranteed receivables outstanding jumped 174.1% during the year, to ¥317.2 billion, and generated a 71.0% increase in operating
revenue, to ¥14.2 billion.
In October 2010, ACOM is scheduled to take over the unsecured card loan guarantee business, valued at around ¥110 billion, of
Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS.

BANKING BUSINESS
The loan business, centering on unsecured loans for consumers, is the ACOM Group’s core business. ACOM has acquiredadvanced credit screening expertise based on data from more than 9 million customers it has served in the past. We are uti-lizing this expertise to extend loans through various channels. In addition to our own network of branches and automaticcontract machines, these include our own ATMs, as well as alliances with convenience stores and financial institutionsaimed at making provision and repayment of loans as easy as possible. In addition, we have opened a multitude of saleschannels, including Internet services offered via personal computers and mobile phones, as well as call centers. In Japan, weprovide speedy loans services under two brands: ACOM and Cash One.
Overseas, we are focusing on the Asian market. There, EASY Buy Public Limited (“EASY BUY”), our subsidiary inThailand, is advancing its business in providing unsecured loans to individuals.
ACOM provides guarantees on unsecured personal loans via alliances with financial institutions, centering on prominentregional banks. Guarantee fees received on guaranteed receivables represent a major source of revenue. Amid ongoing busi-ness reorganization of the MUFJ Group to centralize its unsecured card loan guarantee business within ACOM, we are pro-viding guarantee arrangements tailored to the needs of alliance partners, from product planning to loan collection, and thebalance of guaranteed receivables is growing steadily as a result. We also provide guarantees on business loans. As of March31, 2010, ACOM had tie-ups with 17 banks.
In 1998, ACOM acquired principal membership of MasterCard International and subsequently entered the credit cardbusiness. In addition to our own ACOM card, we have issued other cards in alliance with large-scale retail chains andother companies.
Due to rapidly changing business conditions in recent years, however, we have gradually switched to a policy of cancelingalliance cards as their card renewal date approaches. Instead, we are encouraging alliance cardholders to switch to an ACOMcredit card. As of March 31, 2010, there were 374 thousand holders of cards issued by the ACOM Group.
In this segment, the ACOM Group specializes in installment sales finance services. When a customer wishes to purchase anitem, we pay the retailer in advance, and the customer reimburses us in subsequent installments. We offer a broad range ofpayment options to meet the diversifying needs of customers.
In Japan, our installment sales finance business is handled by AFRESH CREDIT CO., LTD. (“AFRESH CREDIT”). InAsia, we are advancing this business via EASY BUY, our subsidiary in Thailand.
The primary income sources in our loan servicing business are commissions received from banks, life insurers, and otherfinancial institutions for handling their debt collection activities on consignment, as well as marginal profit derived fromrecovery of loans purchased. IR Loan Servicing, Inc. (“IR Loan Servicing”), which handles the ACOM Group’s loan servic-ing business, is developing a comprehensive loans servicing business that takes full advantage of ACOM’s consumer loanservicing know-how and business loan management techniques.
In December 2007, ACOM acquired PT. Bank Nusantara Parahyangan, Tbk (“Bank BNP”), based in Indonesia, in ajoint arrangement with BTMU. Now a consolidated ACOM subsidiary, Bank BNP is advancing its banking businessin Indonesia.

LOAN BUSINESS
Basic Strategies
In May 2009, DCC1—an ACOM consolidated subsidiary estab-
lished in 2001 jointly with the MUFG Group—was merged into
ACOM in line with the business reorganization of the MUFG
Group. Through this action, we will enhance the efficiency of our
double-brand strategy in our Japanese loan business, centering on
the “ACOM” and “DCC1” brands. At the same time, we will
adopt measures to further reinforce our business foundation in
response to the revised Money Lending Business Act. Overseas,
EASY BUY, our consolidated subsidiary in Thailand, holds a
prominent position in that market. Deploying high-quality serv-
ices based on ACOM’s know-how, EASY BUY is expanding its
business as a provider of unsecured loans to individuals.
Fiscal 2009 Highlights
Adopting stricter lending criteria
ACOM’s adoption of stricter lending criteria led to a decline in the
lending ratio on new loans. Nevertheless, we are making steady
progress in improving the quality of our loan portfolio, characterized
by customers with a low number of loans with other companies.
In the approach to the full enforcement of the revised Money
Lending Business Act on June 18, 2010, we have incrementally
raised the stringency of our credit screening criteria. Accordingly,
the lending ratio for new unsecured loans to individuals declined
to 36.8% in the year under review, from 40.6% in the previous
year, and the number of new borrowers fell 13.3%, to 160,700.
Reflecting the success of our meticulous credit screening criteria,
the ratio of unsecured loans contracts in which customers had zero
or one loan with other companies among outstanding loans was
85.2% at the end of fiscal 2009, up from 68.1% at the end of fiscal
2006. Meanwhile, the ratio of existing contracts in which customers
had zero or one loan with other companies among outstanding
loans was 55.3% at March 31, 2010, up from 47.7% three years
earlier. By contrast, the ratio of existing contracts in which cus-
tomers had four loans or more with other companies was 11.5% at
March 31, 2010, down from 22.4% three years earlier.
Reorganizing our office network to
further reinforce business foundation
To ensure a smooth response to the full enforcement of the revised
Money Lending Business Act, in the year under review we reduced
the number of concentrated operating centers from four to two, and
also reorganized our network of staffed and unstaffed outlets.
Actively advancing our operations in Thailand
During the year, EASY BUY sought to improve the quality of its loan
assets by enhancing its credit screening model. It also opened numer-
ous new booths dedicated to accepting new loan applications and
actively advanced its sales initiatives, resulting in an increase in its
loan receivables outstanding.
Fiscal 2009 Results
On a consolidated basis, receivables outstanding in the loan busi-
ness declined to ¥1,173.5 billion at fiscal year-end, down 10.8%
from a year earlier. Consolidated operating revenue in the loan
business declined 13.5% year on year, to ¥240.0 billion. The prin-
cipal factors in these results were declines in the balance of
accounts receivable-operating loans and the average loan yield dur-
ing the year.

Continued contraction of domestic market
The Japanese market continued to shrink. On a non-consolidated
basis, loan receivables outstanding decreased 5.8%, to ¥1,103.9 bil-
lion, despite the beneficial impact of ACOM taking over the loan
business of DCC1. The number of customer accounts declined
8.7%, to 1.94 million, and the number of new customers fell
13.3%, to 160 thousands. The average loan yield over the period
was 18.41%, down 91 basis points from the previous year. Non-
consolidated operating revenue in the loan business fell 10.2%, to
¥219.6 billion.
Interest repayment claims turn downward in second half
(year-on-year basis)
In the year under review, the monthly average number of interest
repayment claims remained high, at 12,200. Also, with the exception
of June 2009, when reconciliation alleviated claims on a large num-
ber of loans, average monthly interest repayments for the year fluctu-
ated between ¥6.0 billion-¥8.0 billion. On quarter basis, interest
repayments fluctuated between ¥20.0 billion-¥23.0 billion.
In November 2009, however, the number of monthly claims
turned downward on a year-on-year basis, and the magnitude of
declines subsequently widened through fiscal year-end.
Steady growth in Thailand
EASY BUY actively advanced its operations during the year. As a
result, receivables outstanding in EASY BUY’s loan business grew
7.4% on a local-currency basis, to 24.2 billion baht. In yen terms, as
well, loan receivables outstanding climbed 14.0%, to ¥66.8 billion,
but operating revenue slipped 2.1%, to ¥19.3 billion.
Fiscal 2010 Outlook
On a consolidated basis, ACOM forecasts a 13.4% decrease in
receivables outstanding in its loan business, to ¥1,016.7 billion.
On a non-consolidated basis, we project a 14.5% decline, to
¥943.6 billion. EASY BUY forecasts a 9.3% year-on-year increase
in receivables outstanding, to ¥73.1 billion.
In the Japanese market, however, the economic outlook is
unclear and the business environment is full of uncertainties in
the wake of various factors, including the full enforcement of the
revised Money Lending Business Act on June 18, 2010 and
trends in interest repayment claims. Under these conditions, the
adoption of restrictions of total loan amounts is expected to cause
declines in the lending ratio on new loans and average loan yield.
In response, we are taking various measures, including effective
advertising, in an effort to attract new, high-quality customers.
However, further declines in loan balances and average loan yield
will be unavoidable. On a non-consolidated basis, therefore, we
forecast a 16.8% fall in operating revenue, to ¥182.7 billion.
For the year, on a non-consolidated basis ACOM expects to
make ¥84.3 billion in total provision of allowance for doubtful
accounts and provision for loss on interest repayment.
EASY BUY will continue working to expand its operations
while raising the quality of its loan assets by enhancing its credit
screening model. Accordingly, EASY BUY forecasts an 11.6% rise
in operating revenue, to ¥21.6 billion.
For the entire segment, on a consolidated basis we expect a
14.9% fall in operating revenue, to ¥204.3 billion.

GUARANTEE BUSINESS
Basic Strategies
Deploying its credit screening expertise, ACOM has expanded its
network of alliances with prominent regional Japanese banks by
offering customized loan guarantee arrangements. As the MUFG
Group’s core company in the unsecured card loan guarantee busi-
ness, ACOM is seeking to dramatically expand the scope of its busi-
ness in this field.
Fiscal 2009 Highlights
Steady increase in guaranteed receivables outstanding
In September 2009, ACOM took over the unsecured card loan guar-
antee business of The Mitsubishi UFJ Home Loan Credit. In January
2010, we began providing guarantees for unsecured loans to individual
customers extended by Seven Bank, Ltd., bringing our network of
alliance partners in the guarantee business to 17. We also worked to
increase the balance of guaranteed receivables, including by support-
ing sales promotion activities for loan products offered by existing
alliance partners, centering on BANQUIC, an unsecured card loan
offered by BTMU.
Strengthening operating systems
In July 2009, ACOM reorganized its business promotion system
with the aim of boosting operational and personnel efficiency and
reinforcing its ability to service defaulted loans once ACOM assumes
the guaranteed debts.
Fiscal 2009 Results and Fiscal 2010 Outlook
In fiscal 2009, ACOM focused on broadening its business scope and
raising operating revenue, while implementing the aforementioned
measures aimed at improving its earnings structure. As a result, guar-
anteed receivables outstanding increased ¥172.8 billion from the pre-
vious fiscal year-end, to ¥317.2 billion, and operating revenue rose
22.9% year on year, to ¥14.2 billion.
In the year ending March 2011, we will continue providin
g sales support to our existing alliance partners while cultivating new
partners. Accordingly, we expect a 12.2% year-on-year increase in the
balance of guaranteed receivables, to ¥355.8 billion, and a 41.3%
jump in segment operating revenue, to ¥20.2 billion.
In October 2010, ACOM is scheduled to take over the unsecured
card loan guarantee business of Mitsubishi UFJ NICOS. At the pres-
ent time, we have not completed our valuation of that business’s
assets, so such valuation is not reflected in our forecasts. Once the
takeover is complete, however, we expect the balance of guaranteed
receivables to grow around ¥110.0 billion, bringing the total balance
to around ¥460.0 billion.

INSTALLMENT SALES FINANCE BUSINESS
Basic Strategies
The domestic installment sales finance business of the ACOM Group
is handled entirely by its consolidated subsidiary, AFRESH CREDIT.
In this business, we are pursuing the key objectives of solidifying our
sales base and strengthening controls of existing member stores.
Overseas, we are advancing our hire purchase business in Thailand
under the EASY BUY brand.
Fiscal 2009 Results and Fiscal 2010 Outlook
In Japan, we further strengthened controls of member stores and
adopted stricter lending criteria in response to a revision of the
Installment Sales Act. As a result, AFRESH CREDIT’s install-
ment receivables outstanding declined 7.5% from the previous fis-
cal year-end, to ¥30.2 billion, while operating revenue increased
5.6% year on year, to ¥3.1 billion.
During the year, EASY BUY placed priority on reviewing its
member stores and improving the soundness of its credit portfo-
lio. Accordingly, EASY BUY’s installment receivables outstanding
fell 43.7%, to ¥1.6 billion, and operating revenue dropped
58.7%, to ¥0.8 billion.
As a result, the ACOM Group’s consolidated installment
receivables outstanding declined 10.5%, to ¥31.8 billion, and
operating revenue fell 19.8%, to ¥4.0 billion.
In fiscal 2010, we will continue placing top priority on improving
our credit portfolio, both in Japan and overseas. On a consolidat-
ed basis, we forecast an 8.9% decline in installment receivables
outstanding, to ¥29.0 billion, and a 20.0% decrease in operating
revenue, to ¥3.2 billion.
CREDIT CARD BUSINESS
Basic Strategies
In its credit card business, ACOM has been expanding its business by
issuing cards in two formats: an ACOM credit card, provided as a
value-added service for loan customers; and cards issued in alliance
with large-scale retail chains and other companies. Amid changing
market conditions, however, we have stopped issuing alliance cards.
Instead, we are encouraging alliance cardholders to switch to an
ACOM credit card as their card renewal date approaches.
Fiscal 2009 Results and Fiscal 2010 Outlook
In fiscal 2009, ACOM tightened controls over issuance of credit
cards to loan customers in order to maintain and improve the sound-
ness of its credit portfolio. We also stopped issuing new alliance
cards, instead encouraging existing alliance cardholders to switch to
an ACOM credit card as their card renewal date approaches. As a
result, the total number of cardholders at fiscal year-end was 374
thousands, down 208 thousands from a year earlier. Card shopping
receivables outstanding fell 18.2% from the previous fiscal year-end,
to ¥26.5 billion, and operating revenue from our credit card business
declined 15.4% year on year, to ¥3.9 billion.
In fiscal 2010, we expect a further 40.7% fall in the number of
cardholders. We also forecast a 24.7% decrease in card shopping
receivables outstanding, to ¥20.0 billion, and a 21.9% decline in seg-
ment operating revenue, to ¥3.1 billion.

LOAN SERVICING BUSINESS
Basic Strategies
In the loan servicing business, we are utilizing ACOM’s know-how
to increase our focus on small, unsecured loans, in addition to servic-
ing business loans. Our priorities in this business are to strengthen
profitability and reinforce our loan servicing capabilities. Conditions
in this market remain severe, however, amid prolonged delays in the
recovery of the Japanese real estate market. For this reason, we are
working to improve our portfolio of operating assets while reducing
the balance of loans secured by real estate.
Fiscal 2009 Results and Fiscal 2010 Outlook
In fiscal 2009, IR Loan Servicing, the loan servicing arm of the
ACOM Group, sought to undertake more rigorous credit assess-
ments and strengthen its loan servicing capabilities. It has also been
sharing its know-how in servicing of small, unsecured loans with
ACOM in order to reinforce its overall servicing system. At the
same time, it has worked to optimize its portfolio of operating
assets by reducing the balance of loans secured by real estate.
As a result, the total principal of loans handled—sum of pur-
chased and consigned obligations—edged up 1.0%, to ¥3,666.0
billion. Purchased receivables outstanding declined 26.8% from
the previous fiscal year-end, to ¥15.3 billion. The collection of
purchased receivables was down 22.1% year on year, to ¥12.2 bil-
lion, and operating revenue fell 21.9%, to ¥12.8 billion.
In fiscal 2010, we expect business conditions to remain difficult.
We forecast a 20.3% decline in the balance of purchased receiv-
ables, to ¥12.2 billion, and a 36.2% fall in operating revenue, to
¥8.2 billion.
BANKING BUSINESS
In the banking business, Indonesia-based Bank BNP is advancing its
operations in collaboration with BTMU. In addition to establishing
and reinforcing its risk management and compliance frameworks,
Bank BNP is actively promoting loans to small and medium-sized
companies, its core target market, while placing priority on sales of
unsecured loan products. These initiatives reflect Bank BNP’s medi-
um-term vision of “becoming a national-level bank focusing on the
retail business.”
In fiscal 2009, Bank BNP extended loans valued at ¥25.3 billion,
up ¥7.2 billion, or 40.1%, from the previous year. Operating revenue
from the banking business totaled ¥3.5 billion.
In fiscal 2010, we will work to further expand our banking busi-
ness. We forecast a 21.6% increase in the loan balance in the banking
business, to ¥30.8 billion, and a 24.0% rise in banking business oper-
ating revenue, to ¥4.4 billion.

Corporate Governance
Basic Policy
The ACOM Group, guided by its lifelong “circle of trust” spirit,maintains an ongoing corporate commitment to respecting otherpeople, putting the customer first, and conducting creative andinnovative management. Based on this commitment, we are seek-ing to deepen mutual trust between our stakeholders and our-selves and thus progress in partnership with society.
In order to meet the expectations of stakeholders and buildstronger trust, we will strengthen corporate governance as a keymanagement priority. To this end, we will take steps to enhancethe soundness, transparency, and efficiency of our operations andachieve sustained increases in our corporate value.
We recognize that effective internal control systems are essen-tial to creating an appropriate corporate governance framework.Based on this recognition, we are encouraging all members of ourorganization to join forces in building internal control systemsand assuring their effectiveness, under the leadership of thePresident & CEO.
At the same time, we are constantly evaluating, verifying, andimproving the effectiveness of internal control mechanismsalready in place.
We introduced a company auditor system in order to achievethe following objectives:• Supervise the execution of duties by the Directors and the deci-
sion making by the Board of Directors that consists of internalDirectors who are closely attuned to the Company’s operations,ensuring that the decisions made are appropriate and effectivefor business execution.
• Ensure proper monitoring of the management from an objectiveand impartial standpoint by Outside Company Auditors.
• Clearly separate the supervision and business execution func-tions, and expedite business execution through the introductionof an executive officer system.
• Protect the interests of general shareholders by having inde-pendent directors/auditors.
The Content of ACOM’s Bodies and Development of its Internal Control System
(As of June 25, 2010)
(A) An Overview of Corporate Governance System and
Reasons for Employing Such a System
ACOM has a Board of Company Auditors. Of the four CompanyAuditors, three are Outside Company Auditors. In addition, of
the three Full-time Company Auditors, two are OutsideCompany Auditors. These ensure the independence of audits. AllCompany Auditors attend Board of Directors meetings, and Full-time Company Auditors divide duties to attend important meet-ings and committee meetings, ensuring a system in whichCompany Auditors can offer their opinions. Based on the above,ACOM believes that an objective and neutral surveillance of themanagement is conducted, and by ensuring fairness, health, andtransparency of the management, the functions expected ofIndependent Directors are substituted.
(B)Overview of Management Entities
(a)Board of Directors and Directors
ACOM has a reduced-size Board of Directors with 10 membersin order to speed up decision-making and ensure effective mutualmonitoring among directors. In the presence of CompanyAuditors, the Board decides important business managementmatters, such as management strategies and planning, and alsodetermines basic policies for building corporate governance andinternal control systems. On the basis of these management plansand fundamental policies, the Board monitors the performancesof the President & CEO and executive officers. It meets once amonth in principle, and more as deemed necessary.
(b)Board of Company Auditors and Company Auditors
The Board of Company Auditors consists of four CompanyAuditors, including three Outside Company Auditors. Theinternal Company Auditor held the positions of Chief GeneralManager of the Accounting Department and Director and ChiefGeneral Manager of the Accounting Department from April1990 to June 2003 and has respectable knowledge in financeand accounting.
It meets once a month, in principle, and more often as deemednecessary, to receive reports concerning important audit-relatedmatters, hold discussions, and pass resolutions.
To upgrade the Company Auditors’ capabilities, ACOM estab-lished the Company Auditors’ Office and assigned persons toassist Company Auditors by providing related support. Decisionsregarding their number, appointments and transfers of such per-sons are made after consultation with the Board of CompanyAuditors in order to secure independence of these persons.
23
(c)Executive Officers
ACOM introduced an executive officer system in June 2003. TheBoard of Directors appoints executive officers, determines theirfunction, lines of responsibility and authority, and delegates exe-cution of operations to them. In these ways, decision-making andbusiness execution are expedited, while supervision and executionfunctions are clearly separated. ACOM has 11 executive officers,9 of whom are in office, and 10 of the 12 members of the Boardof Directors serve concurrently as executive officers.
(d)Executive Officers’ Meeting
The Executive Officers’ Meeting consists of executive officers whoserve concurrently as directors in office and the Director in chargeof the Internal Auditor Department. In the presence of CompanyAuditors, the Executive Officers’ Meeting discusses and makesdecisions on important matters related to the execution of busi-ness as delegated by the Board of Directors in accordance withbasic policies determined by the Board of Directors, and alsodeliberates in advance resolutions for proposal to the Board ofDirectors. The Executive Officers’ Meeting assembles three timesa month, in principle, and more as deemed necessary.
(e)Affiliated Companies Coordination Board
The Affiliated Companies Coordination Board consists of execu-tive officers who serve concurrently as directors, the Director incharge of the Internal Auditor Department and representatives ofACOM Group companies. In the presence of Company Auditors,the Affiliated Companies Coordination Board discusses impor-tant matters concerning the management of affiliated companies,and also coordinates, communicates, and reports on importantmatters pertaining to the execution of their business. The Boardmeets once a month, in principle, and more as deemed necessary.
(f)Various Committees
1) Compliance CommitteeThe Compliance Committee, appointed by the Board ofDirectors, consists of three experts from outside the Companyand two ACOM Directors. It discusses and makes recommenda-tions about the following compliance-related matters.• Items relating to formulation, revision or abolishment of the
ACOM Group Code of Ethics and Code of Conduct• Important items related to establishment and operation of com-
pliance systems
• Items relating to formulation of basic plans• Mechanisms to correct major violations, prevent their recur-

Social Contribution
ACOM’s Social Contribution Activity Policy
Guided by the basic principle of the “Circle of Trust” spirit onwhich it was founded, the ACOM Group embraces a corporatephilosophy emphasizing contribution to improved culturallifestyles. In line with this philosophy, ACOM aims to build goodrelations with society and be “the Company next door” and a“corporate citizen in harmony with society” through its widerange of social contribution activities, including social welfare andcommunity contribution.
Environmental Protection Activities
ACOM has acquired trust beneficiary rights to emission creditsfrom Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation under aproject sanctioned by the United Nations to reduce greenhousegases. Consequently, we became the first company in Japan’s con-sumer finance industry to offset greenhouse gas emissions pro-duced by our “Miru Concert Monogatari” concerts, as well as ourhead office building and other locations. We are offsetting around1,000 tons of carbon emissions annually over a five-year periodunder the arrangement, which started in fiscal 2008. Under thearrangement, ACOM also donates the acquired emission creditsto the Japanese government.
Culture and Arts
Reflecting its philosophy emphasizing contribution to improvedcultural lifestyles, ACOM is actively engaged in supporting cul-
tural and artistic events. Our most prominent initiatives in thisarea are our “Miru Concert Monogatari” performances held regu-larly throughout Japan. Preparation and support for these concertsis provided entirely not only by ACOM employees, but also cit-izens and other volunteers from local authorities in the regionswhere the concerts are held. To maximize the enjoyment of allvisitors, we have organized these concerts as “barrier-free”events, providing onstage sign language interpretation and seat-ing spaces reserved for wheelchair users. The stated aims of theconcerts are to “do something for people,” “see many people’ssmiling faces,” and “build close relationships with local commu-nities.” Since the first event in 1994, we have held more than140 such concerts, bringing the cumulative total of audiences tomore than 130,000 people.
Social Welfare
As part of its “Circle of Trust” commitment, ACOM providessupport for volunteer activities by employees. The ACOMBluebird Fund was set up in 1984 at the suggestion of employeesand continues today. Collection boxes are placed in each work-place, and contributions are donated to social welfare groups andrelief funds to help people in disaster-stricken areas.
Regional Promotional Support Activities
In addition to sponsoring various cultural and sporting events,ACOM engages in local cleanup campaigns and other grass-rootsactivities through affiliated groups.

History of Creativity and Innovation
Carrying on the spirit of its founder, ACOM joins the MUFG Group
Evolution of ACOM’s Creative and Innovative Management >
1970/5Developed the First Automatic
Cash Dispenser in Japan
1960/3Started “Salary-Man Loan”
Subsequently, ACOM’s businessexpanded dramatically in the wake ofhigh-level economic growth. In 1970,as automatic vending machines quick-ly spread, we developed Japan’s firstautomatic cash dispenser, essentiallyan automatic vending machine thatproduced ¥20,000 in an envelopewhen the customer inserted a card.
In the 1960s, Japan entered an era ofmass production and mass consump-tion. At that time, the founders ofACOM, aware of the need to mod-ernize the so-called “people’s finance”industry, took up the challenges ofproviding “salary-man finance” (provi-sion of credit to salaried workers) viaunsecured and unguaranteed loanswhich was not part of Japan’s financialsystem at the time.
1936/4 Started Wholesale and Retail Textile Business
ACOM was founded in 1936 as awholesale and retail textile businessunder the name “Maruito GofukuTen.” Our subsequent history of morethan 70 years has been based on thespirit of reciprocal trust-trusting peo-ple and being trusted by people.

ACOM was founded in 1936 as a wholesale and retail textile business under the name “Maruito Gofuku Ten.” Atthe time, the Company’s trading philosophy was based on “trusting people,” which resonated with many peopleand received warm acclaim, leading to significant prosperity. In those days, companies did not provide financebased on trust of individuals. However, our founding spirit remained with us through our later entry into theconsumer finance business. Our subsequent history of more than 70 years has been based on the spirit of recipro-cal trust—trusting people and being trusted by people.
With a rich history of “creativity and innovation,” we have evolved from a textile trader to a leading companyin the consumer finance sector. Today, ACOM is the core consumer finance company in the MUFG Group.
2004/3Formed an alliance with MTFG
1996/9Entered the Thai market
ACOM’s business development is basedon its belief of constant change and itssuccess in addressing changing condi-tions, changing markets, and changingcustomer needs. In March 2004, weformed a strategic business and capitalalliance with the Mitsubishi TokyoFinancial Group, Inc. (MTFG) (currently,“MUFG”). In December 2008, thebusiness and capital alliance was furtherstrengthened, with ACOM becoming aconsolidated subsidiary of MUFG.
Targeting further growth, in 1996ACOM entered the Thai market inconjunction with its globalization ini-tiative. In 1999, we were the first inthe industry to launch a credit cardbusiness.
1993/7Installed “MUJINKUN,”
automatic contract machine
In 1979, we installed the first 24-hour, 365-day ATM in the domesticconsumer finance industry. Sincethen, in 1993 we led the industry indeveloping an automatic contractmachine, called “MUJINKUN.”These innovations helped to tap intolatent customer demand, providing adriving force for the advancement ofthe entire industry.
