Tsukishima Kikai has obtained an order for one of the largest biomass ethanol plants to use non-food rice as a raw material in Japan. At the new plant, Tsukishima Kikai will simultaneously produce fuel ethanol and introduce a process for manufacturing livestock feed from fermentation residue, thus applying not only its ethanol technologies but also expertise in solid-liquid separation and drying technologies necessary for feed manufacture. In a related development, Tsukishima Kikai began full-scale operation of a bioethanol plant completed in Thailand at the beginning of this year that uses molasses and bagasse as raw materials. Tsukishima Kikai will continue to contribute to global warming mitigation efforts by means of ethanol conversion technologies and other biomass utilization technologies.

Favorable business conditions for chemical plant facilities continued from the previous term, and Tsukishima Kikai obtained numerous orders for these facilities. In particular, Tsukishima Kikai obtained an order from a South Korean company for fertilizer plant facilities that use all of the Company’s core crystallization, filtering, separation and drying technologies. In this project, the customer’s favorable evaluation of proprietary unit operation technologies led to the purchase order. Tsukishima Kikai will continue to take advantage of these core unit operation technologies to engage in selling activities in domestic and overseas markets.

As in 2007, orders for driers from China and Southeast Asia are developing favorably. Tsukishima Kikai holds 70% market share worldwide for steam tube dryers, the major equipment used in various processes for the production of terephthalic acid, a material used in polyester fiber. In response to increasing energy demand, the Company intends to engage in solution-based sales involving proposal for the use of steam tube dryers in various applications such as moisture control facilities for coal and ore used at steel mills.

A Message from the Management

I am pleased to present the Annual Report for fiscal 2007 of the Tsukishima Kikai Group

(Tsukishima Kikai Co., Ltd. and its consolidated subsidiaries).

Although the Japanese economy in fiscal 2007 (April 1, 2007–March 31, 2008) saw a

continued downturn in public investment, investment in facilities by the private sector grew

steadily. Supported by overall growth in the global economy and investment in facilities by

the private sector, Japanese corporate earnings continued to see steady growth.

The U.S. subprime loan crisis in the second half of the year, however, led to falling stock

and bond prices as well as soaring prices of crude oil, raw materials and food, which impacted

on corporate earnings and personal consumption, demonstrating the unpredictability of

future economic trends.

In the machinery industry, despite the continually challenging business environment

brought by competition in the domestic water purification and sewage business, the market

continued to expand, albeit slowly, thanks to steady growth in investment in industrial

machinery facilities and continued export to Asian countries.

Faced with such conditions, in the current consolidated fiscal year (the second year since the

launch of the Group’s medium-term business plan, NEXT 100), TSK Group received more product

orders in the ‘Life cycle’ business by engaging in comprehensive maintenance and management

of water purification plants and sewage treatment plants over a two-year period as part of its

Water Environment Business. New product launches also contributed toward this order increase.

In addition, TSK Group recorded order increases in new industrial business fields relating

to LCD panels, solar cells and electronic products, such as the biomass ethanol field and the

vacuum deposition field.

Maintaining Our Focus on Technological Fields of High Growth Potential

Orders Received, Net Sales and ProfitsWith regards to sales performance in fiscal 2007, growth in the Industrial Business helped compensate

for a slowdown in the Water Environment Business. In spite of this, product orders were down by 4.0%

year on year to ¥83,119 million because of a carry-over to next fiscal year and other factors, and net

sales decreased by 1.7% to ¥77,704 million from the previous year.

However, regarding corporate earnings, the Group’s cost reductions and measures to hold down

selling, general and administrative expenses enabled an increase in operating income by 6% to

¥3,254 million over the previous year.

The increase in operating income and dividend income caused ordinary income to rise by 17.5% to ¥3,571

million compared with the previous year. On the other hand, due to the costs of some construction projects

and estimated additional costs being calculated, net income fell 18.0% to ¥827 million over the previous year.

In the Water Environment Business, in which market demand for machinery generally decreased due to

shrinkage of public investment, TSK Group made the best use of the value chain for design, construction

and operation while proactively implementing the proposed business activities, thereby taking product

orders to ¥44,808 million, net sales to ¥36,010 million, and operating income to ¥357 million in fiscal 2007.

In the Industrial Business, TSK has aggressively developed overseas business opportunities

for core products, and maintained the amount of orders received in the vacuum deposition field

and biomass ethanol field, the latter of which is now of great relevance because of CO2 emission

reduction efforts and skyrocketing crude oil prices.

In addition, the Company’s core product—large-size steam tube dryers—has been successfully

introduced to the market for applications other than those related to terephthalic acid production.

These achievements led product orders to rise to ¥38,311 million, net sales to increase to ¥41,693

million and operating income to climb to ¥2,896 million in fiscal 2007.

Investment in FacilitiesTotal investment in facilities in fiscal 2007 amounted to ¥601 million. Principal investment comprised

construction of a business system and a technical support system.

Research and DevelopmentIn the Water Environment Business, we launched a high-efficiency, energy-saving dewatering machine. The

development of a new high-efficiency, environment-friendly incineration system is progressing successfully,

as is the development of a sludge-to-fuel recycling system. In the Industrial Business, while working to

improve and develop process equipment, we also focus on developing our own process for the biomass

ethanol field, vacuum deposition field and chemicals field, which are all expected to grow.

R&D investment in the current consolidated fiscal year totaled ¥1,177 million.

Future Perspectives & ChallengesSupported by robust growth in investment in facilities and personal consumption, the Japanese economy

is expected to receive a boost from a substantial increase in goods exported, mainly to China. However,

the Company still has to develop insight into future economic conditions and formulate appropriate

countermeasures against the soaring crude oil and raw material prices and unstable foreign exchange

and stock markets in addition to the slowing U.S. economy and its impact on the global market.

In response to these conditions, in the Water Environment Business, TSK Group will continue to

conduct R&D based on high technology and diversified achievements, and proactively create new

business by making the best use of its sludge treatment technology.

As for the Industrial Business, TSK Group will make every effort to secure orders for core products

and leverage its superior technology to win more customers at every opportunity.

We sincerely look forward to the support of our stockholders, investors and customers in the years to come.

noteS to ConSolidated FinanCial StatementS

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the financial statements filed with the Financial Services Agency as required by the Japanese Financial Instruments and Exchange Law (formerly, the Japanese Securities and Exchange Law) in accordance with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in Japan, which are different from the accounting and disclosure requirements of International Accounting Standards. Certain reclassifications have been made to present the accompanying consolidated financial statements in a format which is familiar to readers outside Japan. For the convenience of the reader, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been presented in U.S. dollars by translating all Japanese yen amounts at the exchange rate of ¥100.19 to $1, the approximate rate of exchange at March 31, 2008. These translations should not be construed as representations that the Japanese yen amounts could be converted into U.S. dollar amounts at the above rate or at any other rate.

1. Basis of Presenting Consolidated Financial Statements

(a) The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and affiliates are stated at cost and the equity method is not applied for the valuation of such investments since they are considered immaterial in the aggregate. The five major subsidiaries that have been consolidated with the Company are listed below:

• TsukishimaTechnologyMaintenanceServiceCo.,Ltd.• TsukishimaTechnoMachineryCo.,Ltd.• SunEcoThermalCo.,Ltd.• TsukishimaKankyoEngineering,Ltd.• SamukawaWaterService,Co.,Ltd.

(b) Marketable Securities and Investments in SecuritiesAll of the Group’s securities are classified as follows: i) Held-to-maturity debt securities, which management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, are reported at amortized cost. ii) Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable taxes, reported in a separate component of net assets. The cost of securities sold is determined based on the moving-average method. Non-marketable available-for-sale securities are stated at cost, determined by the moving-average method.

(c) Inventories (1) Raw materials are stated at cost which is determined by the periodic average method. (2) Supplies are stated at cost which is determined by the moving-average method. (3) Work in process is stated at cost which is determined by the specific cost method.

(d) Property, Plant and EquipmentProperty, plant and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is computed by the declining balance method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, except for buildings placed in service after April 1, 1998, for which depreciation is computed on the straight-line method. The range of useful lives is from 3 to 60 years for buildings and structures and from 2 to 15 years for machinery and equipment.

(Change in Accounting Policy)Effective in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, in accordance with the revised Japanese Corporation Tax Law, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries changed the depreciation method of tangible fixed assets acquired on or after April 1, 2007. The effect of this change on operating income and income before income taxes for the period is immaterial.

(Additional Information)Effective in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, in accordance with the revised Japanese Corporation Tax Law, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries depreciate the residual value of

12

tangible fixed assets acquired on or before March 31, 2007, which was depreciated in accordance with former Japanese Corporation Tax Law, to memorandum value in five years using straight-line method. As a result of this change, operating income and income before income taxes each decreased by ¥56 million ($559 thousand) compared with the amount under the formerly applied method.

(e) Allowance for Doubtful AccountsThe allowance for doubtful accounts is provided for in an amount sufficient to cover possible losses on collection. It consists of the estimated uncollectible amount with respect to identified doubtful receivables and an amount calculated on the historical loss experience with respect to remaining receivables.

(f) Accrued WarrantyThe accrued warranty is provided for based on the amounts to be determined as a certain percentage (which is distinguished between domestic and overseas construction) of the amount of completed construction contracts for the year, which is computed as a ratio of the actual repair costs incurred under the warranty against the amounts of completed construction contracts during the past years. In addition, the estimated repair costs for identified individual construction are provided.

(g) Reserve for losses on contractsA reserve for losses on contracts is provided for an estimated amount of probable losses to be incurred in future years in respect of construction projects in progress.

(h) Accrued bonus to officersAccrued bonus to officers is provided for the payment of bonus to officers based on an estimated amount.

(i) Provision for Post-employment BenefitsEmployees who terminate their services with the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries are generally entitled to lump-sum severance payments based on their current basic rates of pay and length of service. In addition, the Company has the tax-qualified pension plans with insurance companies and trust banks. The provision for post-employment benefits recorded in the balance sheets less the pension plan assets was sufficient to satisfy the projected benefit obligation for employee’s services up to the balance sheet date.

(j) Reserve for Retirement Payments to OfficersThe Company and its consolidated subsidiaries have provided for reserve for retirement payments to officers under the retirement benefits plan which are calculated by the estimated amount to be paid if all officers retired at the balance sheet date. With respect to officers’ resignations, the retirement payments calculated under the retirement benefits plan are normally paid subject to approval of the shareholders. The retirement payments to officers should be provided for when such costs can be reasonably estimated.

(k) Income taxesThe Company and its consolidated subsidiaries have adopted the asset-liability method of tax effect accounting to recognize the effect of all temporary differences in the recognition of the tax basis assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts.

(l) translation of Foreign CurrenciesForeign currency receivables and payables are translated at the appropriate year-end current rate. Revenue and expense accounts are translated at the rates closely approximate to those prevailing on the transaction dates. Exchange gains and losses arising from the above foreign currency translations and transactions are included in other income or expenses.

(m) Research and Development CostsResearch and development costs are charged to income as incurred.

(n) Recognition of Contract RevenueSales of construction regarding contracts both with an amount of over ¥0.3 billion and a period of over one year are recognized by the percentage of completion method. Other sales are recognized by the completed contract method.

13

(o) Cash EquivalentsFor the purpose of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments which can be withdrawn without any restriction and with minimum market risk.

(p) Derivative Financial InstrumentsThe Company and certain consolidated subsidiaries use derivative financial instruments to manage their exposures to fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rates. Foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps are utilized by the Company and certain consolidated subsidiaries to reduce foreign currency exchange risks and interest rate risks. The Company and certain consolidated subsidiaries do not enter into derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

noteS to non-ConSolidated FinanCial StatementS

The accompanying non-consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the financial statements filed with the Financial Services Agency as required by the Japanese Financial Instruments and Exchange Law (formerly, the Japanese Securities and Exchange Law) in accordance with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in Japan, which are different from the accounting and disclosure requirements of International Accounting Standards. Certain reclassifications have been made to present the accompanying non-consolidated financial statements in a format which is familiar to readers outside Japan. For the convenience of the reader, the accompanying non-consolidated financial statements have been presented in U.S. dollars by translating all Japanese yen amounts at the exchange rate of ¥100.19 to $1, the approximate rate of exchange at March 31, 2008. These translations should not be construed as representations that the Japanese yen amounts could be converted into U.S. dollar amounts at the above rate or at any other rate.

1. Basis of Presenting Non-Consolidated Financial Statements

(a) Marketable Securities and Investments in SecuritiesThe Company’s securities are classified as follows: i) Held-to-maturity debt securities, which management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, are reported at amortized cost. ii) Equity securities, which were issued by subsidiaries, are stated at moving-average cost. iii) Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable taxes, reported in a separate component of net assets. The cost of securities sold is determined based on the moving-average method. Non-marketable available-for-sale securities are stated at cost, determined by the moving-average method.

(b) Inventories (1) Raw materials are stated at cost which is determined by the periodic average method. (2) Supplies are stated at cost which is determined by the moving-average method. (3) Work in process is stated at cost which is determined by the specific cost method.

(c) Property, Plant and EquipmentProperty, plant and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is computed by the declining balance method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, except for buildings placed in service after April 1, 1998, for which depreciation is computed on the straight-line method. The range of useful lives is from 3 to 60 years for buildings and structures and from 3 to 15 years for machinery and equipment.

(Change in Accounting Policy)Effective in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, in accordance with the revised Japanese Corporation Tax Law, the Company changed the depreciation method of tangible fixed assets acquired on or after April 1, 2007. The effect of this change on operating income and income before income taxes for the period is immaterial.

(Additional Information)Effective in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, in accordance with the revised Japanese Corporation Tax Law, the Company depreciates the residual value of tangible fixed assets acquired on or before March 31, 2007, which was depreciated in accordance with former Japanese Corporation Tax Law, to memorandum value in five years using straight-line method. As a result of this change, operating income and income before income taxes each decreased by ¥54 million ($539 thousand) compared with the amount under the formerly applied method.

(d) Allowance for Doubtful AccountsThe allowance for doubtful accounts is provided for in an amount sufficient to cover possible losses on collection. It consists of the estimated uncollectible amount with respect to identified doubtful receivables and an amount calculated on the historical loss experience with respect to remaining receivables.
