Financial reporting by Toyo Engineering Corporation (the “Company”) provides such information that is highly important for the Company’s shareholders and other stakeholders to verify the Company’s activities. Ensuring of the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting is therefore conducive to the sustainment and enhancement of society’s confidence in the Company. Conversely, incorrect financial reporting may cause not only unexpected loss to a number of stakeholders, but also significant damage to confidence in the Company. Given that, in order for the Company as well as the entire Toyo group to sustain and enhance society’s confidence, the Basic Policies on Financial Reporting are prescribed as follows.
-
Purpose of Financial Reporting
The purpose of financial reporting is to report the entire Toyo group’s financial position and its results of operations on a consolidated basis to shareholders and other stakeholders in a timely and appropriate manner. A financial report refers to consolidated financial statements in principle, and these Basic Policies must be observed not only by the Company that is primarily responsible for the preparation and submission of consolidated financial statements, but also by each of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries and affiliates.

Establishment and Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
With the aim of achieving proper financial reporting, the Company establishes the internal control system covering the entire Toyo group in compliance with Japan’s generally accepted standards for internal control.
