Article 4The terminology, forms, and preparation methods of Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements to be submitted pursuant to the provisions of the Act must comply with the following standards:
(i)Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with the accounting principles and procedures adopted for preparing Consolidated Financial Statements , in principle;
(ii)the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared based on quarterly financial statements of Consolidated Companies that have been prepared in accordance with the business accounting standards generally accepted as fair and appropriate;
(iii)the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements clearly present the accounting information necessary for preventing persons interested in the Company Submitting Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements from making an erroneous determination on the financial position, business performance and Cash Flow conditions of the Business Group; and
(iv)the accounting principles and procedures adopted for preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements for the consolidated fiscal year immediately prior to the consolidated fiscal year containing the Quarterly Consolidated Accounting Period pertaining to the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements (such immediately prior to business year is hereinafter referred to as the "Previous Consolidated Fiscal Year") and the accounting principles and procedures adopted for preparing Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements for the Consolidated Year to Date as of the end of the immediately preceding the Quarterly Consolidated Accounting Period or as of the end of the relevant Quarterly Consolidated Accounting Period are applied continuously in the current Quarterly Consolidated Accounting Period, except if a change has been made on justifiable grounds.
(Scope of Consolidation)
Article 5(1)A Company Submitting Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements must include all of its Subsidiary Companies in the scope of consolidation; provided, however, that it is not to include a Subsidiary Company that falls under either of the following categories in the scope of consolidation:
(i)a Subsidiary Company over whose administrative organ that makes decisions on financial and operational or business policies (meaning a shareholders meeting or any body equivalent thereto) the Company Submitting the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements is found to only have temporary control; and
(ii)a Subsidiary Company whose inclusion in the scope of consolidation is found likely to lead to an extremely erroneous conclusion about the Company Submitting the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements by its interested parties.
(2)If any Subsidiary Company which should be included in the scope of consolidation pursuant to the provisions of the preceding paragraph lacks materiality in terms of its assets, net sales (including revenues from service operations; the same applies hereinafter) , profit or loss, retained earnings and Cash Flows and any other items, to the extent that its exclusion from the scope of consolidation would not hinder reasonable determination on the financial position, business performance and Cash Flow conditions of the Business Group, said Subsidiary Company may be excluded from the scope of consolidation.
(3)If there is any material matter concerning the financial position, business performance or Cash Flow conditions of a Company, etc. (meaning a company, partnership or any other business entity equivalent thereto (including a business entity equivalent thereto in a foreign state); the same applies hereinafter) set forth as follows, which is found to exert influence on determination on the financial position, business performance and Cash Flow conditions of the Business Group, the details thereof must be stated in the notes in the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements:
(i)a Subsidiary Company that is excluded from the scope of consolidation pursuant to the provisions of the proviso to paragraph (1); or
(ii)among Companies, etc. whose majority of voting rights are held by the Company Submitting Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements on its own account, a Company, etc. that has received an order of commencement of rehabilitation proceedings under the provisions of the Civil Rehabilitation Act (Act No. 225 of 1999), a stock company that has received an order of commencement of corporate reorganization proceedings under the provisions of the Corporate Reorganization Act (Act No. 154 of 2002), a Company, etc. that has received an order of commencement of bankruptcy proceedings under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Act (Act No. 75 of 2004), or any other Company, etc. equivalent thereto, which at the same time is not categorized as a Subsidiary Company due to being found to have no effective parent-subsidiary relationship with the Company Submitting Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements.
(Valuation of Assets and Liabilities of Consolidated Subsidiary Companies, etc.)
Article 6When preparing Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements, assets and liabilities of Consolidated Subsidiary Companies must be valuated, investments by the Company Submitting Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements in Consolidated Subsidiary Companies must be offset against the corresponding equity of said Consolidated Subsidiary Companies, and any other necessary elimination of items between the Consolidated Companies must be made.
(Application of the Equity Method)
Article 7(1)Investments in any Non-consolidated Subsidiary Company or Affiliated Company must be reported on a quarterly consolidated balance sheet by indicating values calculated by the Equity Method; provided, however, that the Equity Method is not to be applied to investments in a company that falls under either of the following categories:
(i)an Affiliated Company over whose decisions on financial and operational or business policies the Company Submitting Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements is found to only exert a temporary influence; or
(ii)a Non-consolidated Subsidiary Company or Affiliated Company, where application of the Equity Method to said company is found likely to lead to a extremely erroneous conclusion about the Company Submitting the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements by its interested parties.
(2)If any Non-consolidated Subsidiary Company or Affiliated Company to which the Equity Method should be applied pursuant to the provisions of the preceding paragraph does not, in terms of its profit or loss and retained earnings and any other items, exert a material influence on Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements even if said company is excluded from the target of application of the Equity Method, said company may be excluded from the target of application of the Equity Method.
(Application of Tax Effect Accounting)
Article 8With regard to Consolidated Companies' corporation tax and any other taxes that are imposed on amounts related to profits as the tax base (hereinafter referred to as "Corporation Tax, etc."), Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements must be prepared by applying Tax Effect Accounting (meaning an accounting method which, if there are differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities reported on the quarterly consolidated balance sheet and the amounts of assets and liabilities derived as a result of calculating the taxable income, reasonably matches the amount of quarterly net profit before deducing the Corporation Tax, etc. with the applicable amount of Corporation Tax, etc. through appropriate inter-period allocation of the amount of Corporation Tax, etc. pertaining to such differences; the same applies hereinafter).
(Subsidiary Company with a Different Quarterly Closing Date)
Article 9Any Consolidated Subsidiary Company for which the last day of the Quarterly Accounting Period differs from the quarterly consolidated closing date of the Quarterly Accounting Period of the Company Submitting the Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements corresponding to the relevant period must, on the quarterly consolidated closing date of the Quarterly Accounting Period corresponding to the relevant period, carry out the necessary quarterly settlement of accounts for preparing quarterly financial statements that serve as the basis for preparation of Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements; provided, however, that this does not apply when the difference between the last day of the Quarterly Accounting Period of said Consolidated Subsidiary Company and the quarterly consolidated closing date of the Quarterly Accounting Period corresponding to the relevant period is not more than three months, and Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements corresponding to the relevant period are prepared based on quarterly financial statements for said Quarterly Accounting Period of said Consolidated Subsidiary Company.
