Tasks and Projection for FY2013 ending March 31, 2014
April 25, 2013

2. Outlook of two business segments - Construction, Mining and Utility Equipment While demand for mining equipment should decline, demand for construction equipment should advance in Japan and North America. Coupled with expanding sales of parts, the Japanese yen’s depreciation and other factors, both sales and segment profit for FY2013 should increase from FY2012. - Industrial Machinery and Others While sales of presses and machine tools should remain stable, demand for wire saws should remain sluggish. As a result, we project both sales and segment profit for FY2013 should decrease slightly from FY2012.

【Positive factors】 Fixed costs: +7.0 Selling prices & others: +29.1 Foreign exchange rates: +70.0 【Negative factor】 Volume difference: (13.0)
The decline in the volume of sales mainly resulting from dropped demand for mining equipment should be compensated for by the increase in selling prices resulting from improved selling prices. Coupled with the foreign exchange gain from the Japanese yen’s depreciation, we project that segment profit will advance by JPY93.0 billion from FY2012.

FY2012: While demand increased steadily in Japan and North America, that in China and Indonesia dropped drastically, resulting in a decrease of 7% from FY2011. FY2013: In addition to Chinese demand having bottomed out in FY2012, we project that demand will increase by about 4% from FY2012, supported by steady growth of demand continuing in Japan and North America.

FY
FY2012: Demand advanced by 25% from FY2011, mainly driven by demand in the earthquake and tsunami-destroyed regions. FY2013: We project that demand will grow by 7% to 12% from FY2012, supported by an increase in the number of large- scale reconstruction projects, such as relocation of residential houses to high ground.

FY2012: While overall demand remained firm, centering on Thailand, with an exception of Indonesia, demand in coal mines in Indonesia plummeted in the second and subsequent quarters. As a result, total demand declined by 13% from FY2011. FY2013: We project that demand will start recovering slowly in Indonesia in the second half period and onward, and that full-year total demand will decline by 13% to 8% from FY2012.

Demand: While demand for mining equipment increased steadily in Latin America and Oceania, total demand in FY2012 declined by 7% from FY2011, as adversely affected by a sharp drop in Indonesia. In FY2013, we estimate a decline of 25% from FY2012. Sales: Sales of mining equipment increased to JPY614.5 billion for FY2012, up 11% from FY2011. For FY2013, we project sales of JPY606 billion, about flat from FY2012, against the background of reduced demand and the Japanese yen’s depreciation Parts: Sales of parts totaled JPY319.5 billion for FY2012, remaining flat from FY2011. For FY2013, we project that sales will reach JPY383 billion, up 20% from FY2012,largely supported by expanding volume of sales and the Japanese yen’s depreciation.

While we project that sales of presses and machine tools should remain stable, demand for wire saws will remain sluggish in FY2013. Accordingly, we project that sales will decline by 5.2% from FY2012, to JPY205.0 billion, and segment profit by 3.6% to JPY6.0 billion for FY2013.

- We project that total assets will increase from March 31, 2013, mainly due to new contracts in North America. - Both revenues and pretax income should increase from FY2012, mainly due to an increase in total assets and effects of the Japanese yen’s depreciation.

The Company and a part of its consolidated subsidiaries adopt the declining balance method for the depreciation of property, plant and equipment, and plan to change it to the straight-line method from the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014. Komatsu believes that the straight-line method should better reflect the future usage of the property plant and equipment. The effect of the change in depreciation is recognized prospectively as a change in accounting estimate. This effect is estimated to result in a decrease of depreciation expense by approximately JPY10 billion for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014.
