In the first half of fiscal 2010 (January 1 to June 30, 2010), the Company’s operating environment was plaguedby rising prices for raw materials and materials. Despite these challenges, the domestic economy showed signsof slight recovery. In part due to government economic stimulus measures, the United States gradually recovered,and although conditions remain challenging, the business climate in Europe showed signs of bottoming out. In
Asia, the rate of recovery continued to accelerate throughout all regions, particularly in China.
Under these operating conditions, the Companies continued working to achieve the goal of becoming theworld’s undisputed No. 1 tire and rubber company both in name and reality. Stepping up its efforts on a global
basis, the Companies focused on increasing sales of highly competitive products, strengthening supply capacity,
improving manufacturing productivity, enhancing technological superiority and effectively utilizing management
resources. Moreover, within an operating environment that is challenging at an unprecedented speed, including
the changing structures for demand and competition, the Companies have been striving to rapidly implement a
range of initiatives to enhance their ability such as responding quickly to market trends, increasing sales ofstrategic products, constructing and enhancing a business model that will extend beyond the mere sale ofproducts, and developing eco-friendly products and business.
As a result, in the first half of fiscal 2010, net sales totaled ¥1,385.9 billion, an increase of 15% from the firsthalf of the previous fiscal year. Operating income was ¥78.4 billion, ordinary income was ¥67.9 billion and net
income was ¥44.5 billion. Operating loss, ordinary loss and net loss was ¥19.9 billion, ¥33.8 billion and ¥38.3
billion respectively during the first half of the previous fiscal year.

Not applicable(4) Additional Information
Information about Bridgestone Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries’ alleged cartel activities regarding
the sale of marine hoses and improper monetary payments
Since May 2007, the U.S. Department of Justice, the European Commission, the Fair Trade Commission ofJapan, and other authorities have been investigating the Company and certain of its subsidiaries in connection
with alleged international cartel activities regarding the sale of marine hoses. In February 2008, the Company
received orders from the Fair Trade Commission of Japan. The orders, which directed the Company to ceaseand desist from violating the Antimonopoly Act and to pay surcharges for violating the Act, were finalized.
Moreover, in January 2009, the Company was notified by the European Commission of its decision to impose
a fine of €58.5 million for alleged involvement in an international cartel related to the sale of marine hoses.
After careful consideration, the Company has determined that bringing the course of proceedings to an end
and subsequently focusing on the reinforcement of its compliance system and the promotion of preventive
measures are the appropriate actions to take. Therefore, the Company decided not to appeal to the Court ofFirst Instance of European Commission and has paid the imposed fine. Regarding this matter, the Company
has recorded ¥7,485 million as an expense related to the European Commission fine in the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2008. In regard to the class action lawsuit brought in the United States in connection with themarine hose cartel, a final approval of proposed settlements was granted by the Court. Further, the Company
has handled other individual civil claims in an appropriate manner. The investigation by the U.S. Department ofJustice is continuing. In the future, there is a possibility that fines will be imposed by the U.S. Department ofJustice, but at this point, there are a number of uncertain factors regarding the calculation of a specific reserve,
and as a result expenses have not been recorded. Proceedings in the other countries which have investigatedhave already been finalized.
Further, aside from the above-mentioned issue, the Company uncovered the fact that there have been
incidents of improper monetary payments to foreign agents, a part of which may have been provided to foreign
governmental officials, and other possible forms of improper payments. The Company has been able toconfirm that inappropriate payments have been identified in connection with the sale of marine hoses andother industrial products. The Company has reported the findings of its internal inquiries to the Japanese
Public Prosecutors Office and the U.S. Department of Justice. The impact that these incidents may have on
financial results is unclear at this time.
