We convey our deepest condolences to all those affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake. Our Group is committed to providing the utmost support to the restoration of the areas affected by the disaster.

Rooted in our belief in "Quality First," we strive to create appealing products that will please our customers. As the automobile industry has expanded, we have increased our business on a global scale, and we now enjoy a position as one of the world's best comprehensive automotive parts manufacturers. We are also extending our businesses in lifestyle & energy related fields, providing a range of products that support comfortable lifestyles. Recognizing the benefit of sharing the philosophy and policies on CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) within the entire Group, AISIN enacted the AISIN Group Principles of Corporate Behavior in January 2010. The principles form the foundation for all the Group companies around the world, enabling them to contribute to the creation of a better society with automobiles and a better living environment. In addition, in FY2012, to accommodate a drastic change in the business environment, including rapid growth in emerging markets and innovation in vehicle technologies, we have been working to formulate the AISIN Group Vision for the next decade. We aspire to be a corporate Group that works closely with its stakeholders around the world, including our customers and the community, to create a brighter future. We look forward to the continuing support and patronage of our shareholders, customers, suppliers, local communities and all our other stakeholders as we strive to realize this goal.
