We are pleased to have this opportunity to report on the interim business results of Aisin Seiki Co., Ltd. for the 85th interim fiscal period and would like to extend our utmost appreciation to our shareholders and investors for your continuous support.

During the interim fiscal period (from April 1, 2007 to September 30, 2007), consolidated net sales amounted to ¥ 1,293.5 billion, an increase of 15.5% from the previous fiscal period. At the profit level, consolidated ordinary income rose 55.2% from the previous interim fiscal period to ¥ 84.8 billion and consolidated net income grew 56.5% to ¥ 38.6 billion.

The business environment is unclear, as the world economy faces numerous uncertainties that include soaring prices for such raw materials as crude oil as well as exchange rate fluctuations and intensifying global competition. Amid this environment, while accurately addressing immediate issues, the Aisin Group will combine its overall strengths and actively undertake initiatives to strengthen global competitiveness and its corporate constitution while aiming to become a top world brand. As part of these efforts, we will accelerate the development of system products that create new markets in fields related to the "environment," "safety," "comfort,"and "convenience." Concurrently, we will strive to improve mono-zukuri (manufacturing expertise in value-added products) by cultivating human resources and developing new production methods and will actively propose products that ensure the satisfaction of our customers.

Additionally, we will build a global supply network by further upgrading our production, development and sales structures in Japan as well as in North America, Australia-Asia, and Europe, as we establish a structure capable of responding quickly to customer needs in regions worldwide.

As a company trusted by society, we aim to be a top environmental player by steadily promoting environment preservation activities. In tandem, we are undertaking corporate-citizenship activities, while continually making earnest efforts to undertake highly fair and transparent business activities and develop into a company that attains growth and development in harmony with society.

In closing, we ask our shareholders for their continued support and guidance.

November 2007
