2. Aderans Co., Ltd., and its Subsidiaries (The Aderans Group)
(1) Management policy of the Aderans Group
The Aderans Group offers a comprehensive range of products and services, from wigs to hairdressing, haircare and hair transplants, to successfully address whatever concerns people may have about their hair. As a global group of companies involved in all manner of hair-related businesses, we pursue activities from a client-oriented perspective and strive to achieve a higher level of satisfaction from clients, shareholders and employees. Our efforts are guided by a mission statement emphasizing our development into a trustworthy organization with products and services in constant demand from clients and society as a whole. Indeed, we seek to epitomize the “good company” ideal.
(2) Basic policy on distributing profit
One of Aderans’ top management priorities is the return of profits to shareholders. Our primary objective is, of course, to maintain stable dividends, but the basic idea is to raise the payout ratio and to return profits to shareholders through treasury stock buybacks. Our targets are a payout ratio of at least 30% and a shareholder return ratio of at least 50%, based on consolidated net income. However, if no large applications of funds are required in the two terms ending February 2007 and February 2008, then, notwithstanding our position regarding retained earnings, we intend to apply all of consolidated net income to the shareholder return ratio.
(3) Medium- to long-term business strategies
Based on the medium term management plan of Aderans Group, from March 2005 to February 2008, we tackle business strategies aimed at achieving the numerical targets. We cast our strategy spotlight on four tasks.
(i) Enhance advertising aimed at men in the domestic market and cultivate fresh demand, specifically through the introduction of new products and services and through collaboration with businesses in related fields.
(ii) Energize demand for ladies’ custom-made wigs by elevating recognition of Aderans’ two brands, Eve and Sifore, and reinforce sales of ready-made wigs by utilizing the joint sales structure created with Fontaine Co., Ltd., and by fostering wider demand for that company’s fashion wigs among women of all ages, from young to middle-aged and older.
(iii) Build a new sales network and carve out wider market access not only through the development of new-concept salons but through tie-ups with ordinary distributors as well.
(iv) Reinforce overseas operations by expanding the market shares of each subsidiary and by improving respective profitability, and hone a sharper marketing edge for the Group by acquiring existing retailing outlets or establishing a presence from scratch in promising markets where Aderans has not yet made a direct investment.
(4) Corporate Matters to Address
Fiscal 2007, ended February 28, 2007, was the second year of our medium-term management plan, and through it we achieved a certain degree of success in expanding overseas market shares and in reinforcing profit bases in each market. At home, however, the situation was much different, with market conditions characterized by intense competition. Concerted efforts to cultivate domestic demand and capture the interest of new clients with new products and new services failed to deliver anticipated results. We will now turn our attention toward measures aimed at reinforcing our overseas business foundation and enhancing profitability to secure higher earnings. We will also review our advertising strategy, with a focus on reinvigorating demand in the domestic market, and introduce products and services that distinguish us from our rivals. We will utilize Group strengths to fortify our position in the women’s market and promote capital and operational alliances with beauty and hair-dressing salon chains outside the Group umbrella. Through these efforts, we will ensure the new phase of corporate growth. The companies in the Aderans Group will tackle prevailing challenges and strive as a cohesive unit to realize the goals of the medium-term management plan.

(5) Business targets As benchmarks of medium- to long-term management efficiency, we seek to maintain a ratio of at least 20% on recurring profit to sales, on a consolidated basis, to represent groupwide operating performance, as well as a return on equity of at least 10%, also on a consolidated basis, which represents the impact of efforts to elevate capital efficiency.

3. Business Results and Financial Position (1) Business results for fiscal 2007 (i) Consolidated performance
In fiscal 2007, the domestic economy presented indications of gradual recovery, supported by high corporate earnings and a rally in consumer spending, thanks to a better employment environment. In the United States, the economy slipped into an adjustment phase, precipitated by a stall in housing investment, but consumer spending remained brisk and business conditions held firm. In Europe, healthier employment conditions encouraged steady consumer spending. In areas of the domestic hair industry where the Aderans Group is active, competition between markets intensified. In the men’s market, demand was in slow growth because years of falling birthrates have led to fewer potential clients in the Group’s target age groups. Meanwhile, the women’s market is being transformed by diversifying client preferences. Overseas, subsidiaries involved in the wig business successfully cultivated demand by concentrating on the introduction of new products tailored to each geographical segment. In the hair-transplant business, better surgical techniques and an advertising strategy well matched to client concerns helped draw greater interest in this medical response to hair loss. Against this business backdrop, the Aderans Group turned in a subdued performance. On a consolidated basis, net sales edged up 1.1% year-on-year, to ¥73.4 billion, operating income tumbled 20.4%, to ¥8.2 billion, and recurring profit fell a near-similar 20.3%, to ¥8.8 billion. The Group showed net income of ¥6.0 billion, slipping just 0.9% from fiscal 2006. Based on basic policy on distributing profit, the year-end dividend will go up ¥28.00 per share, to ¥50.00 per share. Results by geographical segment are as follows:
<Japan> Demand for custom-made wigs — our mainstay product group — was lackluster, with sales shrinking 4.2%, to ¥30.1 billion, despite concerted efforts to encourage interest from men and women. In March 2006, we launched new products featuring Aderans Vital Hair for men, and for women, we debuted Eve Fine. We also aired television commercials with different personalities than in the past. While we were able to boost sales to existing clients, we were not as fortunate in attracting new clients, and this situation pulled overall results down. Sales of ready-made wigs improved 3.0%, to ¥10.1 billion, thanks to the availability of new products, the success of demonstration sales, and the opening of more salons. Sales of other hair-related products dropped 7.1%, to ¥4.5 billion. Service revenues inched down 2.0%, to ¥9.3 billion, as fierce competition for the attention of young men eroded revenue from services to promote healthy hair growth. Revenue from other business climbed 7.6%, to ¥543 million, while intersegment sales fell 14.8%, to ¥52 million. Consequently, aggregate net sales from operations in Japan decreased 2.7% year on year, to ¥54.7 billion, and operating income retreated 22.2%, to ¥9.9 billion. <Asia, excluding Japan> In Taiwan, concerted efforts to establish an operating foundation based on a medium- to long-term growth perspective restricted the application of funds directed toward promotional activities. Reduced visibility led to somewhat sluggish sales, but Aderans Inc. (Taiwan) was able to shrink its operating loss. At Aderans Thai., Ltd., a production facility that supplies wigs and hair replacement products to members of the Aderans Group, saw operating income falter, owing to lackluster internal sales.
A breakdown of regional performance by product category reveals that sales of custom-made wigs declined 5.0%, to ¥235 million, while sales of ready-made wigs dropped 16.7%, to ¥69 million, and sales of other hair-related products dropped 21.4%, to ¥57 million. Service revenues jumped 19.4%, to ¥108 million, and intersegment sales grew 4.0%, to ¥4.6 billion. As a result, aggregate net sales from operations in Asia, excluding Japan, improved 3.1% year on year, to ¥5.0 billion. Operating income faltered, down 27.2%, to ¥728 million. <North America> In the wig business, sales of ready-made wigs rose 5.4%, to ¥3.0 billion. Subsidiaries in this segment worked to elicit demand with new products and were generally rewarded as sales of high-value-added items expanded nicely and more than offset
Consolidated

reduced earnings caused by a withdrawal from unprofitable businesses. Favorable conditions also benefited sales of custom-made wigs, which climbed 6.8%, to ¥399 million. In the hair transplant business, service revenues jumped 16.6%, to ¥10.5 billion, reflecting the eye-catching power of new television commercials, the application of database marketing, and the draw of improved surgical techniques. Sales of other hair-related products soared 72.1%, to ¥587 million, while intersegment sales skyrocketed 77.1%, to ¥1.6 billion. All told, aggregate net sales from North American operations expanded 19.6%, to ¥16.2 billion, and the operating loss of fiscal 2006 -- ¥75 million -- was replaced by operating income of ¥528 million. <Europe> In markets, particularly Sweden, England and the Netherlands, where the Aderans Group already enjoys a high profile, sales of high-value-added Group-made products showed brisk improvement. Sales of custom-made wigs rose 13.4%, to ¥599 million Sales of ready-made wigs grew 9.5%, to ¥2.3 billion. Sales of other hair-related products climbed 20.6%, to ¥663 million, and service revenues surged 49.1%, to ¥142 million. Consequently, aggregate net sales from operations in Europe sales increased 13.1%, to ¥3.7 billion. Operating income jumped 31.3%, to ¥286 million, reflecting higher net sales and improved profitability. (ii) Outlook for Fiscal 2008
On a consolidated basis, the fiscal year ending February 29, 2008, will probably deliver mixed results. Net sales should maintain upward movement, reaching ¥77.8 billion, up 5.9%, but recurring profit may only amount to ¥7.7 billion, down 12.6%, and net income could drop to ¥3.6 billion, down 40.9%.
(2) Financial Position
As of February 28, 2007, consolidated cash and cash equivalents stood at ¥17.9 billion, up ¥2.0 billion or 13.0% from a year earlier. The status of cash flows from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities and the reasons for changes in respective status are presented below. Net cash provided by operating activities reached ¥5.0 billion, down ¥5.3 billion, or 51.2%. This change reflects ¥7.8 billion in income before income taxes and minority interests and ¥2.1 billion in depreciation and amortization on the assets side, and ¥4.4 billion in payment of income taxes on the liabilities side. Net cash provided by investing activities amounted to ¥258 million, a turnaround from ¥2.5 billion used in investing activities in fiscal 2006. Key components of this change included outflow of ¥5.9 billion to buy marketable securities, ¥2.4 billion to acquire property, plant and equipment, and ¥2.6 billion to purchase investment securities, and inflow of ¥8.9 billion in proceeds from sales of marketable securities. Net cash used in financing activities came to ¥4.0 billion, down ¥1.4 billion, or 26.2%. This decrease represents the application of ¥1.8 billion to pay dividends and ¥3.1 billion to acquire treasury stock and the receipt of ¥1.1 billion in proceeds from the sale of treasury stock.
Ratios for cash flow analysis are as follows:

(3) Business Risks
Reliance on overseas production and certain products 1) Aderans’ principal wig production facilities are located overseas, in Thailand and the Philippines. If the
production capabilities of these facilities were reduced due to fire, natural disaster, labor unrest or some other obstacle to normal operations, or if a change in the political or economic environment in the aforementioned countries hampered the supply of products or access to necessary materials, Aderans would have difficulty procuring alternative products since the Group’s wigs and hair-replacement products require the Company’s proprietary know-how in the production process. Therefore, the inability to make and/or distribute and export wigs and hair-replacement products could have a serious impact on Aderans’ fiscal results.
2) If competitors were to develop and bring to market such products as revolutionary topical hair-growth agents and oral remedies, or develop and commercialize medical techniques superior to prevailing hair-transplant procedures, the impact on Aderans’ fiscal results would be considerable. R&D
Aderans’ R&D activities are currently focused on the pursuit of hair-regeneration technology, but the Company cannot guarantee that efforts to develop such technology will be successful, nor that such efforts, even if successful, will generate profits in short term. In addition, it is difficult to predict with accuracy at the present time what the scale of demand might be for hair-regeneration technology, should such methods be marketable at some point in the future. Information Management
Aderans is engaged in businesses for ordinary citizens, who have concerns about their hair. If information about clients were to leak outside of the Company’s system, the disclosure could cause considerable psychological or emotional anguish to the named clients and could significantly impact the Company’s business activities. Maintaining Talent
The business activities of Aderans are subject to laws and regulations pertaining to barber and hairdressing business, and 60% of the Company’s employees are licensed barbers and beauticians. If the Company is unable to retain qualified barbers and beauticians at its salons, the resulting shortage of essential personnel could adversely affect the Company’s ability to provide services.

Basis for Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements 1. Scope of consolidation
(i) There are 30 consolidated subsidiaries in the Aderans Group. Major consolidated subsidiaries are listed below. FONTAINE Co., Ltd. ADN Co., Ltd. Aderans Holding Co., Inc. (overseas subsidiary) Aderans Europe B.V. (overseas subsidiary) Aderans Thai Ltd. (overseas subsidiary)
In fiscal 2007, a newly established subsidiary, Hair Trust Holdings, Co., Ltd., and three merged subsidiaries, Best Move Co., Ltd., Samson Co., Ltd., and Nodin, Co., Ltd., brought into the scope of consolidation. And ADE Co., Ltd. was excluded consolidated subsidiary due to its liquidation.
(ii) There are no important non-consolidated subsidiaries.
The effects of non-consolidated subsidiaries’ accounts on consolidated results would be negligible, hence their result excluded from the scope of consolidation.
2. Application of equity method
The equity method has not been adopted for non-consolidated subsidiaries, as their effects on the consolidated financial statements would be negligible.
3. Fiscal terms of consolidated subsidiaries
Of consolidated subsidiaries, ADN Co., Ltd., Hair Trust Holdings, Co., Ltd., Samson Co.,Ltd., and Nodin, Co.,Ltd., and the 25 overseas subsidiaries close their fiscal years on December 31. However, the gaps between the fiscal year ends of each company do not exceed a period of three months. For this reason, in preparing its consolidated financial statements, the Company has used their financial data as of December 31. Major translations that occurred from their fiscal year-end, Dec., 31, to the consolidated fiscal year-end, February 28, have been reconciled appropriately in the consolidated accounts.
4. Accounting Principles and Methods
1. Principles and methods of valuation of important assets ① Securities
Bonds to be held until maturity: Amortized cost method (straight line method) Stocks of subsidiaries: Cost recorded using the moving-average method Other securities: Securities quoted on exchanges: Market value method based on market value at fiscal year end.
Appraisal differences are dealt with by means of the direct capital influx method, with cost of securities sold calculated with the moving average method.
Securities not quoted on exchanges: Cost recorded using the moving average method
② Inventories Goods and products: With respect to the reporting company, custom-made wigs are accounted for by
the unit cost method, ready-made wigs by the weighted average cost method, and other goods and products by the last invoice method. At domestic consolidated subsidiaries, the moving average cost method is most commonly used. Overseas consolidated subsidiaries use either the first-in first-out (FIFO) cost method or the moving-average cost method.
Raw materials and work in process: Consolidated subsidiaries use either the first-in first-out cost method or the moving-average cost method.
Supplies: The unit cost method is applied to supply materials, with other supplies mainly being accounted for with the last invoice cost method. However, overseas consolidated subsidiaries use the first-in first-out cost method.
Consolidated
(Unaudited) 21
2. Depreciation of important fixed assets Tangible fixed assets: These assets are primarily accounted for with the declining-balance method,
although buildings (excluding annexes) acquired since April 1, 1998, are accounted for with the straight-line depreciation method. The straight-line method is also applied to certain domestic consolidated subsidiaries. The tangible fixed assets of overseas consolidated subsidiaries are primarily accounted for with the straight-line method.
Estimated useful life of principal items are as follows: Buildings and structures: 13-47 years Intangible fixed assets: The straight-line method is applied. Software for in-house use is accounted for with the straight-line method over the
estimated useful life (five years). Long-term prepaid expenses: Equal depreciation
3. Standards for important allowances ① Allowance for doubtful accounts:
To prepare against credit losses, Aderans makes additions to this allowance on the basis of loan loss ratios for standard loans, and on an individual basis for loans considered unlikely to be repaid in full. For overseas consolidated subsidiaries, the estimated uncollectable amount for individual accounts is added.
② Allowance for bonus to employees: To prepare for bonus payments to employees, the reporting company and its domestic consolidated subsidiaries make additions to the allowance in accordance with the estimated amounts payable.
③ Allowance for bonus to directors: To prepare for bonus payments to directors, the reporting company and consolidated subsidiary, Fontaine Co., Ltd., make additions to the allowance in accordance with the estimated amounts payable.
④ Allowance for product warranties: To prepare for expenses arising from free warranties on goods and products sold, the consolidated financial statements reporting company adds an appropriate amount based on past experience.
⑤ Allowance for returned goods: Consolidated subsidiary FONTAINE Co., Ltd., makes provisions in order to account for losses due to returns of sold products. Amounts of the allowance for returned goods are calculated by multiplying the average returned goods ratios of the current period and previous fiscal year by the gross profit margin of the current period, and adding this total to the balance of accounts receivable.
⑥ Retirement benefits allowance — employees The Company, its domestic consolidated subsidiaries and some of its overseas subsidiaries have recorded retirement benefits based on projected benefit obligations and plan assets at the balance sheet date as a reserve for retirement benefits for employees. Past service debt is expensed in the consolidated accounting period in which it occurs by the straight-line method within a fixed period (five years) for the estimated average remaining life of service by employees. Actuarial difference is expensed in the consolidated accounting period following that in which it occurs by the straight-line method within a fixed period (five years) for the estimated average remaining life of service by employees.
⑦ Severance and retirement benefits allowance — directors The Company and two consolidated subsidiaries — Fontaine, and Samson — used to record severance and retirement benefits based on an internal rule to cover payments to directors and accrue the full amount at the balance sheet date. This bonus structure was abandoned in prior period and replaced with a severance and retirement benefits allowance, which is the projected amount that will be paid at the time of retirement to directors who held positions when the previous bonus system was in force.
Consolidated
(Unaudited) 22
4. Translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies into yen Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are converted into yen at the rates of exchange in effect at the end of the consolidated period, with translation differences treated as gains or losses. The assets and liabilities of overseas consolidated subsidiaries are also converted into yen at the rates of exchange in effect at the end of the current fiscal year. Income, losses, and expenses are converted into yen using average exchange rates over the period in question, and translation differences are recorded in the shareholders’ equity section of the balance sheets under foreign currency translation adjustments.
5. Accounting methods pertaining to important lease transactions
Aderans accounts for finance lease transactions using the same method as ordinary rent transactions, except for those transactions where ownership of the leased property is considered to be transferred to the lessee.
6. Consumption and other taxes
Aderans applies the tax-exclusion accounting method to national and local consumption taxes. 5. Valuation of assets and liabilities of consolidated subsidiaries
The assets and liabilities of the consolidated subsidiaries are valued using the full mark-to-market method.
6. Amortization of consolidation difference Consolidation difference is amortized equally over either 5 years or 10 years starting from its accrual. In the event that the accrued amount is insignificant, it is accounted for as profit or loss at the time of accrual.
7. Standards for items of the appropriation of retained earnings The consolidated statements of surplus are prepared based on the appropriation of retained earnings of the companies under consolidation that was finalized during Fiscal 2004.
8. Scope of funds in the consolidated statements of cash flows Funds (cash and cash equivalents) in the consolidated statements of cash flows comprise cash in hand, demand deposits that can be withdrawn at any time, and short-term investments that are highly liquid, easily convertible into cash, have little risk of fluctuation in value, and that mature within three months or less of the date of acquisition.
[Changes in Significant Items Regarding the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements] (Accounting standard for directors’ bonuses)
From the fiscal year-ended February 28, 2007, the Company has adopted accounting policies, in accordance with Guidance No. 4, “Accounting Standard for Directors’ Bonuses” issued by the Accounting Standards Board on November 29, 2005. At the result, operating income, recurring profit, and income before income taxes decreased ¥111 million, respectively, from the previous fiscal year.
Please see “Segment Information: 2 Geographical segments” page about the impact of the change on performance by region. (Accounting standard for presentation of net assets on consolidated balance sheets) From this fiscal year ended Feburuary 28, 2007, Aderans has revised its presentation of shareholders’ equity, in accordance with
Report No. 5, “Accounting Standard for Presentation of Net Assets on the Balance Sheet,” issued by the Accounting Standards Board (ASB) on December 9, 2005, and Guidance No. 8, “Guidance on Accounting Standard for Presentation of Net Assets on the Balance Sheet,” also issued by ASB on the same date. The amount corresponding to shareholders’ equity under the previous accounting treatment is ¥72,699 million. In accordance with revised rules for consolidated financial statements, Aderans has prepared financial statements for the fiscal
year ended February 28, 2007, in line with post-revision rules for such reporting. .
