As of March 31, 2012, the ITHD Group comprised parent company IT Holdings Corporation (“ITHD” or “the Company”) and48 consolidated subsidiaries, including principal companies TIS Inc., INTEC Inc., AGREX INC., QUALICA INC. and AJS Inc.
Several changes took place within the Group. On April 1, 2011, SORUN Corporation and UFIT Co., Ltd., merged with
TIS, INTEC Systems Institute, Inc., merged with INTEC, and IT Service Force Co., Ltd. merged with Web Office Co., Ltd.
Then, on October 1, 2011, AJS Inc. merged with AJS Software Co., Ltd. Consequently, the non-surviving companies were
removed from the scope of consolidation.

Profit and Loss Analysis
Net Sales
Consolidated net sales edged up 1.3%, to ¥327,417 million ($ 3,983 million), as favorable order activity from clients in theindustrial IT services segment offset such challenges as reduced demand from clients in the financial IT services segment
where the tendency to curb IT investment continued. A breakdown of performance by business segment is presented
below.
Note: Seeking to promote a horizontal management structure within the Group, ITHD shifted away from management
methods that hinged on its subsidiary groups in favor of management methods fined-tuned to service categories andclients/markets. Sales by segment include intersegment sales, and numerical data from the previous fiscal year has
been restated under the new breakdown for comparison purposes.
IT Infrastructure Services
This segment provides self-administered computer utility and system operation services through large IT facilities, such asdata centers. In fiscal 2012, net sales were on a par with the previous fiscal year, settling at ¥111,358 million ($138 million),up 0.4% year-on-year. Over the last few years, the next-generation data center business has really picked up,
compensating somewhat for sluggish results from existing businesses. Operating income slipped 1.0%, to ¥8,049 million($97 million), but the decrease could have been larger, due to the application of funds to front-load investment into nextgeneration data centers, had it not been for successful efforts to trim costs.
Financial IT Services
This segment supports the shift toward greater use of IT in business processes and in the execution of business activities,
with business know-how and IT expertise specific to the financial sector. In fiscal 2012, net sales dipped 3.5%, to ¥70,099
million ($852 million), owing to a persistent trend among credit card companies—a key demand group with a significantly
high contribution to consolidated sales—to curb IT investment and also owing to the fact that large insurers andmegabanks have already brought their IT investment plans to a close. Operating income, however, jumped 15.6%, to¥4,534 million ($55 million), thanks to successful efforts to reduce costs.
Industrial IT Services
This segment supports the shift toward greater use of IT in business processes and in the execution of business activities,
with business know-how and IT expertise in areas other than finance, particularly industrial and public finance sectors.
Against a backdrop of gradual recovery in IT investment led by companies in the distribution and processing-based
manufacturing industries, net sales grew 5.8%, to ¥149,466 million ($1,818 million). Operating income skyrocketed 63.6%,
to ¥2,658 million ($32 million).

Other BusinessThis segment covers activities incidental to the provision of information systems and other businesses. In fiscal 2012, thesegment showed a 2.2% year-on-year decrease in net sales, to ¥16,234 million ($197 million). But operating income soared
73.3%, to ¥2,277 million ($27 million).

Costs, Expenses and Earnings
Although the Company allocated funds for upfront investment in next-generation data centers, concerted efforts to reduce
expenses and capitalize on the crystallizing appearance of positive results from structural reforms implemented in the firsthalf of the fiscal year, led to operating income of ¥15,621 million ($190 million), up 21.9% year-on-year, and recurring profitof ¥15,393 million ($187 million), also up 21.9% year-on-year. Net income tumbled 64.3%, to ¥2,135 million ($25 million),squeezed by the booking of one-time expenses of about ¥7.8 billion related to business restructuring and a reversal of
about ¥1.1 billion on deferred tax assets, paralleling tax system revision in December 2011. A breakdown of major
expenses related to business restructuring shows that about ¥3.0 billion ($36 million) was spent on the relocation andcentralization of Group offices and about ¥4.4 billion ($535 billion) was spent on the introduction of a special career change
program at subsidiary TIS.

Financial Position
AssetsTotal assets stood at ¥310,003 million ($3,771 million) as of March 31, 2012, up 3.0% from a year earlier. Of this amount,current assets accounted for ¥142,442 million ($1,733 million), up 10.9% year-on-year, and total fixed assets accounted for¥167,560 million ($2,038 million), down 2.9%. Total liabilities grew 6.0%, to ¥159,038 million ($1,935 million), and total net
assets reached ¥150,965 million ($1,836 million), dipping 0.1% from the end of March 2011. Equity capital, calculated bysubtracting ¥7,267 million ($88 million) in minority interest in consolidated subsidiaries and ¥38 million ($469 thousand) in
subscription rights from net assets, was on a par with the previous fiscal year, at ¥143,658 million ($1,747 million), and theequity ratio retreated 1.4 percentage points, to 46.3%.

Cash Flow Status
Cash and cash equivalents (“cash”) totaled ¥41,119 million ($500 million) as of March 31, 2012, up 12.7% from March 31,
2011.
Net cash provided by operating activities fell 13.1%, to ¥23,658 million ($287 million). This change reflects a ¥5,235
million ($63 million) increase in notes and accounts receivable and ¥4,685 million ($57 million) in income taxes paid, which
offset income before income taxes of ¥6,121 million ($74 million) and the positive cash flow effect of ¥12,745 million ($155
million) in depreciation and a ¥2,710 million ($32 million) increase in notes and accounts payable.
Net cash used in investing activities decreased 20.0%, to ¥15,158 million ($184 million), as inflow, mainly ¥2,314 million($28 million) in proceeds from the sale of investment securities, was overshadowed by outflow, mainly ¥9,519 million ($115
million) used for the acquisition of property and equipment and ¥4,927 million ($59 million) for the acquisition of intangible
assets.
Net cash used in financing activities retreated 77.4%, to ¥4,230 million ($51 million). Primary components of cash
inflows, namely, ¥16,637 million ($202 million) in proceeds from long-term bank loans and a ¥4,403 million ($53 million) net
increase in short-term borrowings, were outweighed by outflows of ¥14,662 million ($178 million) for repayment of longterm bank loans and ¥7,500 million ($91 million) for redemption of corporate bonds.

Dividend Policy
ITHD has made the long-term, comprehensive return of profits to shareholders a management priority and seeks tomaintain stable dividends—targeting a consolidated payout ratio of 30%—while taking into account performance trends,
financial status, and the need to enrich retained earnings to support business growth.
In fiscal 2012, the Company booked a consolidated extraordinary loss of about ¥7,800 million, mainly from one-time
expenses of ¥3,000 million to relocate and centralize Group offices—a move designed to elicit greater synergy throughout
the Group by reinforcing cooperation between Group companies, strengthening Group governance and cutting costs—andabout ¥4,400 million for a special career change program at subsidiary TIS paralleling companywide structural reforms. The
Company also had to deal with the impact of December 2011 tax system reforms, which caused a ¥1,100 million reversal
in deferred tax assets. Taking these developments into account, as well as the need to build sufficient internal reserves tofund continued growth, management decided on an annual dividend of ¥18 ($0.21) per share.
For fiscal 2013, management anticipates an annual dividend of ¥21 per share, including an interim dividend of ¥7 pershare.

Business and Other Risks
Risk specific to each business segment may arise. In the software development business, for example, projects could
turn unprofitable, while system malfunctions could interrupt services in the outsourcing business. The Company applies
various measures to prevent the manifestation of such risks.
In the IT infrastructure business, data centers under the Group umbrella offer outsourcing and cloud computing
services at home and abroad—in Tokyo, Osaka, Kanagawa Prefecture, Tochigi Prefecture, Toyama Prefecture and Aichi
Prefecture as well as in Tianjin, China, and other locations—24 hours a day every day of the year. A variety of a
installations, such as a base-isolation structure for enhanced earthquake tolerance, an on-site generator to ensure
uninterrupted power supply, and crime-prevention systems to thwart unauthorized access, have been incorporated into
the buildings to control foreseeable risk. Nevertheless, if an extraordinarily significant event, such as an extended power
failure, a large-scale natural disaster, international conflict or an act of terrorism, or major criminal activity, were to occur
and disrupt the smooth execution of data center activities, the Group’s business results and financial position could be
adversely affected.
All forward-looking statements in this document are based on information available to management as of May 10,
2012.
